Preached and written by the reverend & godly learned M. Iohn More, late preacher in the citie of Norwitch. And now first published by M. Nicholas Bovvnd: whereunto he hath adioyned of his owne, A sermon of comfort for the afflicted: and, A short treatise of a contented mind.

of_o love_v one_o another_o be_v a_o new_a commandment_n it_o may_v seem_v strange_a that_o he_o call_v it_o new_a and_o yet_o be_v give_v so_o long_o ago_o by_o the_o lord_n god_n himself_o in_o his_o commandment_n 18._o and_o be_v the_o very_a sum_n of_o the_o whole_a second_o table_n as_o it_o do_v appear_v by_o the_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n his_o own_o interpretation_n 39_o that_o we_o love_v our_o neighbour_n as_o ourself_o this_o then_o seem_v not_o to_o be_v new_a which_o be_v deliver_v to_o moses_n a_o thousand_o year_n before_o &_o more_o true_a it_o be_v our_o saviour_n christ_n do_v not_o here_o call_v it_o new_a as_o though_o it_o have_v never_o be_v utter_v before_o but_o because_o he_o will_v call_v a_o new_a to_o the_o mind_n that_o which_o they_o have_v hear_v of_o old_a out_o of_o the_o law_n before_o he_o call_v it_o therefore_o new_a which_o be_v new_o renew_v again_o in_o memory_n &_o moreover_o also_o now_o at_o his_o death_n because_o he_o will_v have_v it_o stick_v continual_o in_o their_o mind_n as_o a_o thing_n new_a tell_v fresh_a in_o our_o mind_n for_o we_o know_v thing_n that_o be_v old_a do_v or_o speak_v be_v not_o so_o ripe_a in_o our_o head_n as_o that_o that_o be_v new_o do_v or_o speak_v that_o it_o may_v be_v therefore_o unto_o we_o continual_o new_a and_o fresh_a in_o our_o mind_n he_o call_v it_o new_a not_o old_a and_o raw_a but_o fresh_a and_o new_a we_o have_v therefore_o well_o to_o consider_v of_o it_o and_o every_o one_o of_o we_o to_o enter_v deep_a into_o ourselves_o and_o try_v our_o heart_n whether_o this_o commandment_n be_v new_a fresh_a and_o green_a in_o our_o mind_n or_o no_o or_o rather_o whether_o it_o be_v so_o old_a unto_o we_o that_o we_o have_v clean_o forget_v it_o i_o be_o afraid_a if_o we_o well_o try_v and_o examine_v ourselves_o we_o shall_v find_v it_o fresh_a and_o new_a among_o a_o very_a few_o or_o none_o of_o we_o but_o so_o old_a that_o it_o be_v even_o at_o the_o last_o cast_v with_o a_o great_a number_n of_o we_o and_o a_o new_a commandment_n come_v in_o the_o room_n of_o it_o not_o from_o jesus_n christ_n but_o satan_n and_o the_o devil_n a_o new_a commandment_n that_o we_o love_v not_o one_o a_o other_o but_o every_o man_n himself_o this_o same_o new_a commandment_n of_o satan_n of_o love_v ourselves_o oh_o it_o be_v marvellous_a rife_a fresh_a and_o new_a among_o we_o but_o the_o new_a commandment_n of_o the_o lord_n jesus_n of_o love_v one_o a_o other_o it_o be_v so_o stale_a and_o wear_v out_o of_o use_n among_o we_o new-fangled_a englishman_n and_o especial_o among_o we_o norfolk_n man_n if_o jesus_n christ_n have_v give_v we_o this_o commandment_n to_o love_v ourselves_o how_o notable_o can_v we_o have_v practise_v it_o and_o what_o a_o number_n of_o follower_n thereof_o shall_v we_o have_v find_v among_o we_o at_o this_o day_n all_o england_n all_o norfolk_n shall_v have_v be_v find_v very_o perfect_a in_o it_o but_o alas_o good_a brethren_n it_o be_v clean_o contrary_a that_o commandment_n which_o he_o will_v have_v new_a among_o we_o be_v not_o to_o love_v ourselves_o but_o to_o love_v one_o a_o other_o this_o be_v that_o which_o be_v very_o rare_a in_o our_o day_n and_o must_v be_v new_a fresh_a and_o rife_o among_o we_o there_o be_v no_o remedy_n or_o sure_o the_o lord_n will_v begin_v a_o new_a work_n among_o we_o he_o can_v abide_v to_o hear_v his_o commandment_n so_o contemptuous_o and_o despiteful_o tread_v under_o our_o foot_n therefore_o let_v we_o be_v careful_a in_o the_o fear_n of_o god_n to_o amend_v that_o which_o be_v amiss_o in_o we_o and_o now_o begin_v to_o embrace_v this_o new_a commandment_n of_o the_o lord_n jesus_n of_o love_v one_o a_o other_o and_o utter_o forsake_v and_o remove_v that_o old_a satan_n commandment_n of_o love_v of_o ourselves_o that_o we_o may_v be_v right_a disciple_n and_o scholar_n of_o jesus_n christ_n as_o we_o say_v we_o be_v christian_n and_o hold_v of_o christ_n well_o thus_o you_o see_v what_o weighty_a charge_n be_v give_v of_o our_o saviour_n to_o love_v one_o a_o other_o it_o be_v no_o small_a matter_n and_o therefore_o not_o hasty_o to_o be_v put_v up_o because_o it_o be_v both_o a_o commandment_n and_o proceed_v also_o from_o he_o that_o have_v authority_n over_o all_o thing_n to_o command_v which_o have_v his_o judgement_n for_o we_o in_o the_o life_n to_o come_v if_o we_o will_v not_o be_v teach_v by_o fair_a mean_n here_o in_o this_o life_n now_o it_o follow_v in_o the_o text_n even_o as_o i_o have_v love_v you_o this_o sentence_n serve_v both_o for_o a_o reason_n more_o vehement_o to_o persuade_v we_o to_o love_v one_o a_o other_o by_o his_o own_o example_n that_o so_o tender_o love_v we_o &_o also_o it_o serve_v for_o a_o pattern_n to_o try_v our_o love_n by_o whether_o it_o be_v sincere_a or_o feign_a the_o reason_n whereby_o he_o exhort_v we_o to_o love_v one_o a_o other_o stand_v thus_o i_o so_o tender_o love_v you_o that_o be_v from_o all_o eternity_n with_o my_o father_n in_o joy_n eternal_a 6._o humble_v myself_o to_o become_v man_n in_o your_o nature_n 15._o subject_n to_o all_o misery_n and_o

i_o submit_v myself_o and_o that_o to_o the_o most_o shameful_a death_n for_o your_o death_n to_o bring_v you_o to_o a_o glorious_a life_n and_o this_o i_o do_v not_o only_a when_o you_o be_v no_o

of_o beggar_n be_v in_o bondage_n and_o beside_o not_o only_o deliver_v they_o out_o of_o slavery_n of_o a_o foreign_a prince_n but_o also_o exalt_v they_o to_o the_o state_n of_o lord_n and_o noble_n by_o devide_v his_o inheritance_n among_o they_o be_v it_o not_o i_o say_v a_o intolerable_a thing_n if_o these_o exalt_a beggar_n forget_v their_o former_a estate_n shall_v now_o be_v so_o puff_v up_o in_o pride_n that_o one_o of_o they_o will_v not_o vouchsafe_v to_o look_v upon_o a_o other_o but_o contemn_v hate_v and_o disdain_v one_o a_o other_o be_v not_o this_o thing_n intolerable_a and_o not_o to_o be_v suffer_v among_o man_n so_o to_o requite_v the_o goodness_n of_o their_o king_n nay_o will_v not_o we_o rather_o give_v our_o verdict_n upon_o they_o and_o think_v they_o well_o serve_v to_o be_v set_v again_o all_o alike_o in_o beggary_n and_o slavery_n as_o they_o be_v before_o and_o look_v if_o they_o can_v agree_v any_o better_a among_o themselves_o there_o yes_o sure_o will_v we_o and_o think_v they_o well_o serve_v even_o so_o good_a brethren_n if_o we_o will_v not_o love_v one_o a_o other_o since_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n have_v so_o tender_o love_v we_o that_o he_o have_v give_v himself_o for_o we_o to_o redeem_v we_o from_o hell_n sure_o it_o can_v not_o be_v otherwise_o think_v but_o that_o we_o deserve_v to_o be_v throw_v down_o headlong_o to_o hell_n eternal_o and_o look_v if_o we_o can_v agree_v any_o better_a there_o it_o please_v the_o lord_n jesus_n to_o redeem_v we_o from_o damnation_n that_o we_o may_v love_v one_o a_o other_o as_o he_o love_v we_o if_o we_o will_v not_o then_o love_v one_o a_o other_o what_o be_v it_o else_o but_o even_o to_o provoke_v the_o lord_n jesus_n to_o leave_v we_o even_o where_o he_o find_v we_o that_o be_v even_o firebrand_n of_o hell_n and_o look_v how_o we_o can_v away_o with_o that_o gear_n wherefore_o good_a brethren_n let_v we_o take_v this_o argument_n to_o ourselves_o and_o although_o we_o will_v not_o love_v one_o a_o other_o for_o no_o other_o thing_n yet_o at_o the_o least_o let_v we_o love_v one_o a_o other_o for_o jesus_n christ_n sake_n who_o so_o tender_o and_o dear_o love_v we_o that_o he_o give_v his_o own_o life_n for_o we_o if_o not_o for_o his_o sake_n yet_o good_a brethren_n for_o our_o own_o soul_n sake_n which_o shall_v perish_v in_o hell_n everlasting_o thus_o you_o see_v what_o force_n this_o reason_n have_v which_o the_o

be_v free_v from_o it_o unless_o we_o will_v pervert_v this_o order_n establish_v by_o god_n decree_n neither_o need_v we_o to_o fear_v it_o when_o as_o the_o lord_n that_o have_v determine_v to_o

cross_n which_o that_o we_o may_v not_o look_v to_o be_v free_v from_o or_o fear_v lest_o it_o shall_v hinder_v we_o in_o our_o salvation_n the_o apostle_n tell_v we_o wherefore_o the_o lord_n have_v thus_o decree_v of_o the_o whole_a church_n even_o that_o see_v his_o own_o son_n christ_n jesus_n come_v no_o other_o way_n but_o this_o unto_o glory_n he_o be_v the_o elder_a brother_n in_o the_o house_n of_o god_n all_o other_o by_o their_o practice_n may_v yield_v unto_o his_o sovereignty_n when_o they_o will_v not_o refuse_v to_o go_v that_o way_n to_o their_o inheritance_n which_o he_o go_v before_o though_o never_o so_o grievous_a even_o through_o many_o affliction_n so_o that_o even_o as_o a_o noble_a man_n will_v have_v all_o his_o servant_n to_o wear_v one_o livery_n that_o

therefore_o none_o of_o we_o the_o young_a brother_n must_v refuse_v it_o for_o as_o in_o a_o family_n great_a be_v the_o privilege_n of_o the_o elder_a brother_n and_o none_o must_v look_v to_o go_v beyond_o he_o nay_o every_o one_o can_v not_o be_v like_a unto_o he_o and_o if_o any_o may_v come_v to_o as_o great_a a_o inheritance_n as_o he_o by_o do_v those_o thing_n which_o he_o do_v before_o they_o they_o may_v not_o refuse_v the_o condition_n unless_o they_o will_v prefer_v themselves_o before_o he_o so_o see_v it_o have_v please_v the_o lord_n to_o consecrate_v the_o prince_n of_o our_o peace_n through_o affliction_n hebr._n cap._n 2._o vers_fw-la 10._o and_o he_o come_v unto_o glory_n no_o other_o way_n then_o this_o we_o must_v think_v it_o good_a for_o we_o to_o go_v the_o same_o way_n that_o we_o may_v be_v like_a unto_o he_o and_o so_o by_o our_o practice_n show_v that_o we_o acknowledge_v he_o to_o be_v the_o prince_n of_o our_o peace_n and_o our_o elder_a brother_n then_o even_o as_o he_o be_v the_o chief_a and_o principal_n in_o the_o common_a wealth_n in_o the_o church_n in_o a_o private_a family_n and_o in_o any_o place_n that_o all_o desire_n to_o be_v like_a unto_o so_o when_o we_o be_v content_v to_o be_v like_a unto_o christ_n in_o any_o thing_n even_o in_o the_o cross_n then_o shall_v we_o declare_v that_o we_o hold_v he_o to_o be_v the_o chief_a and_o

that_o be_v the_o first_o bear_v and_o to_o stain_v the_o honour_n of_o he_o that_o be_v the_o prince_n of_o our_o peace_n for_o what_o a_o disorder_n be_v it_o if_o the_o subject_n will_v refuse_v to_o do_v that_o which_o the_o prince_n have_v do_v before_o and_o if_o the_o young_a brother_n shall_v think_v much_o to_o be_v bring_v up_o that_o way_n that_o the_o heir_n have_v be_v before_o even_o so_o when_o we_o shall_v refuse_v to_o bear_v the_o cross_n which_o our_o saviour_n christ_n by_o the_o appointment_n of_o his_o father_n have_v bear_v in_o great_a measure_n than_o we_o

we_o shall_v dream_v of_o a_o more_o ready_a way_n and_o think_v to_o come_v to_o it_o some_o other_o way_n we_o know_v not_o what_o therefore_o let_v this_o comfort_v we_o in_o all_o trouble_n and_o
