thou_o do_v now_o lament_v the_o death_n of_o thy_o friend_n will_v it_o groan_v and_o sigh_v to_o think_v of_o the_o hole_n where_o its_o flesh_n lie_v will_v it_o sigh_v to_o think_v that_o its_o

then_o why_o be_v thou_o trouble_v for_o thy_o friend_n and_o not_o for_o thyself_o to_o think_v how_o sad_a thou_o must_v one_o day_n be_v the_o fear_n of_o thy_o own_o death_n must_v more_o than_o

into_o a_o most_o piteous_a case_n when_o thou_o come_v to_o yield_v up_o thy_o own_o death_n be_v no_o strange_a thing_n as_o i_o have_v say_v for_o we_o must_v all_o die_v but_o then_o why_o shall_v we_o mourn_v so_o much_o if_o it_o be_v such_o a_o usual_a thing_n if_o we_o do_v mourn_v excessive_o it_o be_v a_o sign_n we_o think_v not_o of_o the_o commonness_n of_o it_o and_o then_o how_o

of_o pelusium_n think_v that_o our_o 173._o lib._n 2._o epist_n 173._o saviour_n do_v not_o mourn_v for_o his_o friend_n lazarus_n because_o he_o be_v dead_a for_o he_o know_v that_o he_o be_v go_v

all_o the_o misery_n thou_o creat_a to_o thyself_o but_o the_o very_a truth_n be_v we_o be_v so_o sensible_a of_o our_o body_n and_o have_v so_o little_a feel_n of_o our_o soul_n or_o divine_a thing_n that_o it_o be_v ready_a to_o make_v we_o think_v we_o be_v not_o when_o our_o body_n be_v dead_a this_o make_v death_n such_o a_o terrible_a thing_n this_o make_v both_o our_o own_o and_o other_o

nor_o will_v thou_o be_v able_a to_o help_v other_o to_o bear_v their_o sorrow_n how_o will_v thou_o be_v able_a to_o comfort_v other_o if_o thou_o can_v not_o comfort_v thyself_o it_o shall_v seem_v by_o thy_o tear_n that_o thou_o be_v very_o ambitious_a of_o the_o name_n of_o a_o friend_n but_o if_o thou_o be_v not_o able_a to_o comfort_v thy_o friend_n what_o be_v he_o the_o better_a for_o

thou_o never_o tell_v any_o man_n that_o it_o be_v a_o shame_n to_o be_v impatient_a when_o we_o can_v cure_v ourselves_o that_o they_o suffer_v nothing_o but_o what_o god_n and_o nature_n have_v appoint_v that_o we_o must_v all_o expect_v such_o loss_n that_o no_o body_n know_v who_o turn_n be_v next_o take_v then_o thy_o own_o counsel_n and_o be_v not_o such_o a_o physician_n as_o can_v

of_o the_o brother_n of_o drusus_n that_o though_o drusus_n die_v in_o the_o midst_n of_o his_o embrace_n and_o with_o his_o kiss_n warm_a upon_o his_o mouth_n thoug_a he_o die_v in_o the_o very_a

if_o thou_o be_v a_o friend_n therefore_o unto_o any_o let_v they_o all_o learn_v of_o thou_o how_o to_o be_v well_o satisfy_v comfort_v thyself_o as_o thou_o have_v comfort_v other_o or_o else_o as_o

xii_o ask_v thyself_o again_o we_o death_n do_v sometime_o befriend_v we_o whether_o friend_n only_o be_v mortal_a do_v none_o die_v but_o they_o that_o love_v we_o must_v not_o all_o our_o enemy_n

of_o all_o misery_n though_o we_o may_v not_o wish_v for_o the_o death_n of_o any_o yet_o it_o be_v no_o harm_n to_o think_v that_o they_o must_v die_v who_o hate_v we_o and_o their_o rage_n shall_v

then_o thy_o god_n himself_o the_o holy_a one_o of_o israel_n be_v very_o jealous_a and_o can_v endure_v to_o be_v so_o slight_v that_o other_o thing_n shall_v have_v as_o much_o of_o our_o

what_o be_v the_o reason_n i_o beseech_v you_o that_o widowhood_n and_o orphanage_n be_v so_o rare_a in_o the_o ancient_a time_n among_o good_a people_n why_o do_v abraham_n and_o his_o sarah_n and_o

thy_o son_n he_o be_v as_o willing_a to_o do_v it_o as_o to_o offer_v the_o sacrifice_n of_o a_o lamb._n but_o we_o be_v heavy_a and_o dull_a we_o be_v carry_v so_o headlong_o into_o the_o embrace_n

if_o this_o reason_n be_v not_o sufficient_a to_o convince_v thou_o i_o have_v a_o comparison_n that_o will_v win_v thy_o assent_n tell_v i_o if_o thou_o have_v a_o husband_n who_o love_v thou_o so_o
