chief_a end_n which_o be_v god_n and_o his_o glory_n for_o as_o a_o soldier_n when_o he_o be_v in_o health_n value_v not_o the_o physician_n and_o his_o medicine_n because_o they_o avail_v he_o not_o to_o the_o conquer_a of_o his_o enemy_n and_o when_o he_o be_v sick_a or_o hurt_v care_v not_o to_o put_v on_o his_o arm_n because_o they_o conduce_v not_o to_o the_o recovery_n of_o his_o health_n

much_o as_o it_o may_v be_v a_o mean_n to_o conduce_v to_o our_o end_n which_o be_v the_o creator_n and_o he_o who_o seek_v after_o thing_n temporal_a for_o themselves_o do_v no_o less_o a_o injury_n unto_o god_n than_o to_o change_v base_o his_o end_n leave_v the_o eternal_a for_o the_o temporal_a and_o the_o creator_n for_o the_o creature_n and_o become_v so_o much_o a_o sot_n and_o a_o fool_n as_o he_o mistake_v his_o true_a end_n and_o make_v the_o medium_fw-la his_o end_n and_o submit_v himself_o to_o a_o vile_a creature_n from_o whence_o may_v be_v understand_v that_o difference_n

that_o which_o he_o use_v ill_a and_o that_o which_o he_o enjoy_v ill_a and_o to_o the_o contrary_a the_o holy_a and_o laudable_a life_n of_o the_o good_a be_v that_o which_o use_v this_o world_n aright_o and_o enjoy_v god_n aright_o from_o hence_o also_o may_v be_v resolve_v that_o doubt_n among_o the_o ancient_a philosopher_n which_o be_v the_o true_a good_n which_o controversy_n be_v also_o on_o foot_n among_o the_o faithful_a in_o david_n time_n wherefore_o he_o demand_v in_o one_o of_o his_o psalm_n quis_fw-la ostendit_fw-la nobis_fw-la bona_fw-la who_o will_v show_v we_o the_o good_a
