perhaps_o they_o have_v begin_v to_o wax_v cold_a and_o altogether_o to_o be_v extinguish_v and_o after_o that_o they_o fall_v into_o such_o despise_n of_o god_n and_o his_o word_n that_o they_o be_v much_o worse_o they_o they_o which_o never_o know_v god_n wherefore_o we_o must_v take_v heed_n of_o that_o 11._o sect._n transfiguration_n of_o satan_n 2._o cor._n 11._o same_o subtle_a satan_n who_o can_v so_o well_o transform_v himself_o into_o a_o angel_n of_o light_n to_o make_v the_o truth_n of_o god_n to_o serve_v our_o affection_n and_o to_o change_v it_o into_o a_o lie_n and_o blasphemy_n when_o satan_n know_v that_o there_o be_v any_o fear_n of_o god_n and_o any_o knowledge_n of_o truth_n in_o we_o and_o that_o we_o do_v any_o thing_n reverence_n the_o holy_a scripture_n he_o arm_v himself_o to_o fight_v against_o we_o by_o they_o 4._o mat._n 4._o and_o he_o allege_v they_o to_o we_o as_o he_o do_v to_o christ_n jesus_n when_o he_o tempt_v he_o 4._o luk._n 4._o this_o satan_n be_v very_o dangerous_a who_o take_v the_o staff_n of_o the_o word_n of_o god_n to_o beat_v we_o withal_o wherewith_o he_o ought_v to_o beat_a and_o therewith_o he_o give_v we_o dangerous_a wound_n the_o first_o be_v that_o he_o move_v we_o to_o blaspheme_v god_n the_o second_o be_v which_o be_v make_v worse_a that_o he_o make_v we_o to_o believe_v and_o think_v that_o it_o be_v not_o wicked_o do_v but_o that_o it_o be_v lawful_a for_o we_o to_o do_v so_o at_o the_o least_o it_o be_v a_o small_a sin_n and_o among_o the_o lest_o that_o we_o can_v commit_v &_o which_o be_v more_o to_o the_o intent_n we_o shall_v not_o perish_v aone_v in_o our_o error_n he_o prick_v we_o forward_o to_o entice_v other_o to_o do_v the_o like_a and_o to_o the_o end_n he_o may_v be_v more_o covert_a and_o less_o know_v to_o give_v a_o better_a cloak_n to_o these_o reason_n he_o lay_v straight_o before_o we_o naaman_n the_o sirian_a or_o nicodemus_n or_o saint_n paul_n which_o appli_v himself_o to_o all_o and_o who_o make_v himself_o a_o jew_n amongst_o sect._n 1._o cor._n 9_o sect._n jew_n &_o a_o gentyle_n among_o gentyle_n i_o doubt_v not_o but_o these_o reason_n seem_v fair_a and_o pleasant_a to_o the_o flesh_n and_o that_o it_o love_v such_o proctor_n and_n advocate_n which_o will_v so_o excuse_v &_o flesh_n proctor_n and_o advocate_n of_o the_o flesh_n justify_v it_o but_o it_o must_v take_v heed_n that_o they_o use_v she_o not_o as_o advocate_n and_o proctor_n those_o be_v without_o conscience_n and_o without_o the_o fear_n of_o god_n and_o which_o have_v no_o other_o god_n but_o gold_n and_o silver_n and_o have_v no_o regard_n so_o they_o have_v money_n such_o proctor_n and_n advocate_n will_v make_v they_o believe_v who_o cause_n they_o defend_v that_o their_o matter_n be_v good_a although_o it_o be_v the_o worst_a &_o false_a that_o may_v be_v for_o every_o man_n easy_o believe_v that_o which_o he_o desire_v &_o that_o which_o please_v he_o &_o he_o have_v affection_n unto_o &_o therefore_o m._n advocate_n know_v the_o affection_n of_o man_n abuse_v he_o to_o his_o profit_n &_o gain_v &_o to_o the_o hurt_n of_o the_o poor_a contend_v for_o if_o he_o will_v tell_v he_o at_o the_o first_o that_o he_o have_v a_o evil_a cause_n he_o will_v stay_v from_o plead_v if_o he_o be_v wise_a and_o will_v pursue_v that_o cause_n no_o more_o but_o will_v do_v that_o which_o be_v right_a and_o reason_n and_o so_o the_o advocate_n shall_v gain_v nothing_o or_o if_o he_o be_v a_o obstinate_a person_n and_o affection_a above_o measure_n to_o his_o cause_n &_o against_o his_o party_n he_o will_v be_v vex_v and_o angry_a against_o his_o advocate_n and_o will_v judge_v he_o ignorant_a and_o scant_a cunning_n in_o his_o art_n for_o tell_v he_o truth_n and_o therefore_o will_v go_v seek_v another_o more_o to_o his_o like_n for_o it_o be_v the_o nature_n of_o man_n to_o judge_v all_o thing_n according_a to_o his_o affection_n and_o for_o his_o advantage_n if_o thou_o speak_v to_o his_o fancy_n thou_o shall_v be_v the_o learn_a man_n in_o the_o world_n but_o if_o thou_o be_v contrary_a to_o his_o opinion_n thou_o shall_v be_v but_o a_o beast_n and_o haste_v lose_v immediate_o all_o thy_o learning_n and_o therefore_o our_o flesh_n will_v have_v advocate_n to_o defend_v their_o cause_n well_o and_o to_o allow_v what_o she_o desire_v &_o see_v it_o have_v such_o a_o desire_n she_o shall_v no_o more_o lack_v such_o fellow_n as_o she_o desire_v than_o the_o same_o proctor_n which_o take_v pleasure_n in_o contention_n spend_v their_o money_n lose_v their_o time_n and_o consume_v their_o body_n and_o soul_n in_o strife_n and_o debate_n but_o what_o profit_n shall_v they_o have_v to_o cast_v away_o sect._n sect._n and_o destroy_v themselves_o for_o the_o sentence_n shall_v not_o be_v give_v by_o the_o advocate_n and_o proctor_n nor_o according_a to_o their_o desire_n but_o by_o the_o judge_n and_o such_o as_o shall_v please_v he_o and_o when_o m._n advocate_n shall_v see_v that_o the_o cause_n of_o his_o client_n go_v evil_a who_o he_o have_v always_o keep_v in_o good_a hope_n till_o the_o last_o cast_v he_o will_v shake_v he_o of_o well_o

have_v the_o feather_n &_o the_o fat_a and_o care_v no_o more_o for_o the_o cause_n and_o therefore_o let_v we_o take_v good_a heed_n that_o we_o delight_v not_o in_o such_o defender_n and_o advocate_n for_o there_o may_v be_v enough_o find_v which_o to_o please_v we_o and_o be_v in_o our_o favour_n and_o well_o account_v of_o will_v flatter_v we_o and_o tell_v we_o pleasant_a thing_n we_o prove_v it_o true_a in_o many_o belly_n which_o have_v find_v such_o taste_n in_o the_o kitchen_n of_o egypt_n that_o they_o think_v themselves_o utter_o lose_v so_o soon_o as_o they_o have_v lose_v the_o sight_n of_o the_o smoke_n but_o when_o we_o shall_v appear_v before_o the_o judgement_n of_o god_n the_o disputation_n shall_v not_o there_o be_v decide_v nor_o the_o cause_n there_o judge_v by_o their_o reason_n nor_o according_a to_o their_o sentence_n but_o by_o the_o just_a judgement_n of_o god_n which_o be_v always_o in_o truth_n and_o therefore_o let_v we_o count_v they_o more_o dear_a parasite_n sect._n let_v we_o flee_v flatterer_n and_o parasite_n which_o speak_v simple_o and_o round_o unto_o we_o according_a to_o the_o truth_n of_o god_n than_o those_o which_o flatter_v and_o seduce_v we_o to_o please_v we_o and_o keep_v themselves_o mor_n at_o ease_n for_o in_o this_o divine_a court_n and_o in_o these_o last_o appeal_n sentence_n shall_v not_o there_o be_v

shall_v not_o ease_v then_o the_o case_n of_o the_o other_o for_o they_o both_o shall_v be_v sufficient_o trouble_v each_o one_o with_o his_o own_o cause_n the_o plaintiff_n shall_v not_o there_o be_v
