help_v we_o to_o observe_v all_o the_o ten_o commandment_n in_o general_a for_o whereas_o it_o consist_v of_o two_o part_n to_o confess_v and_o to_o communicate_v by_o confession_n we_o be_v purge_v from_o our_o sin_n and_o so_o have_v less_o occasion_n to_o fall_v again_o for_o nothing_o do_v draw_v to_o sin_n more_o than_o sin_n itself_o by_o the_o holy_a communion_n we_o receive_v strength_n to_o perform_v all_o that_o which_o we_o be_v oblige_v to_o do_v in_o serve_v god_n 13._o who_o be_v oblige_v to_o confession_n all_o those_o that_o be_v come_v to_o the_o use_n of_o reason_n which_o be_v ordinary_o conceive_v to_o be_v at_o eight_o year_n of_o age_n and_o it_o be_v to_o be_v note_v that_o the_o church_n do_v not_o by_o this_o precept_n of_o confess_v once_o a_o year_n take_v of_o the_o obligation_n that_o every_o man_n may_v have_v of_o confess_v often_o 14._o what_o occasion_n be_v they_o that_o oblige_v a_o man_n to_o confession_n often_o than_o once_o a_o year_n first_o it_o must_v be_v suppose_v that_o none_o be_v oblige_v but_o such_o as_o be_v in_o mortal_a sin_n among_o who_o first_o those_o be_v oblige_v who_o by_o sickness_n or_o by_o reason_n of_o some_o

of_o age_n sufficient_a to_o discern_v the_o greatness_n of_o this_o mystery_n which_o be_v conceive_v to_o be_v ordinary_o when_o one_o be_v 12_o year_n old_a and_o it_o be_v to_o be_v note_v that_o by_o easter_n be_v understand_v the_o eight_o day_n follow_v and_o the_o eight_o day_n precedent_n to_o easter_n day_n and_o also_o that_o those_o who_o communicate_v be_v bind_v to_o be_v fast_v

ordinary_o speak_v every_o man_n will_v do_v well_o to_o confess_v often_o than_o he_o communicate_v especial_o those_o who_o for_o want_v of_o actual_a devotion_n or_o through_o spiritual_a slothfulness_n communicate_v very_o seldom_o and_o if_o they_o fall_v often_o into_o mortal_a sin_n they_o ought_v to_o prepare_v themselves_o by_o do_v worthy_a fruit_n of_o repentance_n whereof_o i_o shall_v speak_v
not_o wonder_v if_o in_o some_o case_n the_o priest_n impose_v so_o small_a a_o penance_n in_o respect_n of_o the_o grievous_a offence_n of_o the_o penitent_a as_o it_o happen_v in_o those_o who_o confess_v great_a sin_n at_o the_o hour_n of_o death_n for_o the_o least_o outward_a act_n be_v significative_a and_o sufficient_a to_o testify_v our_o present_a intention_n 34._o what_o do_v you_o gather_v from_o its_o be_v satisfactory_a i_o gather_v from_o thence_o that_o the_o satisfaction_n ought_v to_o correspond_v to_o the_o grievousnesse_n of_o the_o penitent_n offence_n and_o that_o it_o ought_v to_o be_v a_o penal_a satisfaction_n that_o be_v such_o as_o do_v chastise_v the_o body_n and_o manifest_v in_o the_o penitent_a zeal_n of_o god_n his_o justice_n and_o a_o spirit_n of_o godly_a revenge_n upon_o himself_o for_o the_o sin_n he_o have_v commit_v 35._o what_o do_v you_o gather_v by_o its_o be_v medecinall_a i_o gather_v from_o thence_o that_o the_o penance_n which_o the_o priest_n impose_v aught_o to_o be_v proportion_v to_o the_o disease_a humour_n of_o the_o penitent_a and_o such_o as_o may_v withdraw_v he_o from_o sin_n and_o that_o it_o ought_v according_o to_o be_v augment_v or_o lessen_v as_o he_o find_v his_o penitent_n to_o amend_v himself_o more_o or_o less_o 36._o what_o do_v you_o gather_v by_o its_o be_v significative_a since_o that_o its_o signification_n do_v consist_v in_o testify_v the_o sincerity_n of_o our_o inward_a repentance_n and_o a_o acknowledgement_n of_o our_o obligation_n to_o do_v worthy_a fruit_n of_o repentance_n in_o this_o life_n i_o gather_v first_o that_o when_o we_o have_v perform_v the_o penance_n impose_v by_o the_o priest_n we_o ought_v not_o therefore_o to_o desist_v but_o we_o must_v still_o go_v on_o in_o bewail_v our_o sin_n all_o our_o life_n time_n for_o as_o s._n augustin_n say_v poenitere_fw-la est_fw-la poenam_fw-la tenere_fw-la to_o repent_v be_v to_o persevere_v in_o pain_n to_o the_o end_n say_v he_o that_o one_o may_v punish_v by_o revenge_v in_o himself_o that_o which_o he_o have_v commit_v by_o sin_v he_o therefore_o do_v persevere_v in_o pain_n who_o always_o punish_v that_o which_o it_o grieve_v he_o to_o have_v commit_v second_o i_o gather_v in_o case_n that_o the_o priest_n shall_v either_o through_o necessity_n as_o it_o happen_v when_o a_o penitent_a be_v in_o danger_n of_o death_n or_o else_o through_o ignorance_n or_o by_o too_o much_o indulgence_n impose_v so_o small_a a_o penance_n as_o will_v have_v no_o proportion_n with_o the_o grievousnesse_n of_o the_o sin_n whereof_o the_o penitent_a be_v guilty_a that_o then_o the_o penitent_a by_o do_v that_o small_a penance_n must_v not_o think_v himself_o release_v of_o the_o debt_n he_o owe_v for_o his_o sin_n nor_o acquit_v of_o the_o obligation_n he_o have_v to_o do_v worthy_a fruit_n of_o repentance_n but_o he_o must_v do_v they_o voluntary_o or_o by_o the_o advice_n of_o his_o ghostly_a father_n which_o will_v be_v more_o meritorious_a 37._o be_v we_o then_o oblige_v to_o do_v worthy_a fruit_n of_o repentance_n yes_o for_o as_o by_o the_o sacrament_n of_o baptism_n we_o do_v solemn_o renounce_v the_o world_n and_o promise_v to_o abstain_v from_o sin_n so_o we_o do_v by_o the_o sacrament_n of_o penance_n which_o be_v a_o second_o baptism_n and_o call_v by_o the_o father_n a_o laborious_a baptism_n not_o only_o renew_v our_o former_a promise_n make_v in_o baptism_n but_o also_o we_o do_v add_v a_o new_a purpose_n signify_v by_o the_o penance_n impose_v by_o the_o priest_n and_o accept_v by_o the_o penitent_a of_o repair_v by_o worthy_a fruit_n of_o repentance_n the_o harm_n which_o we_o have_v suffer_v by_o sin_n and_o therefore_o the_o council_n of_o trent_n teach_v that_o in_o the_o penance_n for_o sin_n commit_v after_o baptism_n be_v contain_v not_o only_o a_o cessation_n from_o sin_n a_o detestation_n of_o sin_n and_o a_o contrite_a and_o humble_a heart_n which_o thing_n be_v require_v in_o baptism_n but_o also_o satisfaction_n by_o fast_v alm_n prayer_n and_o other_o pious_a exercise_n of_o a_o spiritual_a life_n 38._o from_o whence_o arise_v the_o obligation_n of_o worthy_a fruit_n of_o repentance_n it_o arise_v from_o two_o head_n first_o from_o the_o precept_n for_o they_o be_v express_o command_v by_o god_n second_o from_o the_o nature_n of_o the_o thing_n itself_o for_o the_o light_n of_o reason_n do_v teach_v we_o that_o we_o be_v bind_v both_o to_o satisfy_v god_n his_o justice_n and_o also_o to_o repair_v our_o own_o loss_n when_o we_o be_v able_a the_o one_o be_v a_o kind_n of_o restitution_n to_o be_v make_v to_o god_n and_o the_o other_o a_o kind_n of_o restitution_n due_a to_o ourselves_o wherefore_o to_o know_v how_o far_o this_o precept_n of_o do_v worthy_a fruit_n of_o repentance_n bind_v we_o must_v consider_v these_o two_o principal_a end_n for_o which_o they_o be_v command_v and_o as_o for_o the_o first_o end_n which_o be_v to_o satisfy_v god_n his_o justice_n for_o the_o temporal_a pain_n remain_v after_o that_o the_o guilt_n of_o sin_n be_v remit_v you_o must_v note_v that_o the_o minister_n of_o god_n can_v know_v how_o much_o repentance_n and_o contrition_n the_o penitent_n have_v nether_a can_v the_o penitent_a nor_o the_o minister_n know_v the_o value_n of_o the_o say_a contrition_n nor_o how_o much_o more_o he_o ought_v to_o do_v for_o due_a satisfaction_n and_o therefore_o in_o the_o primitive_a church_n they_o use_v to_o impose_v austere_a pennance_n for_o every_o mortal_a sin_n which_o they_o be_v to_o perform_v for_o a_o long_a time_n together_o yea_o for_o some_o sin_n they_o be_v to_o do_v penance_n all_o their_o life_n time_n that_o so_o god_n his_o justice_n may_v be_v more_o full_o satisfy_v but_o in_o after_o age_n the_o church_n have_v mitigate_v that_o former_a austerity_n release_n the_o penitential_a canon_n by_o frequent_a indulgence_n which_o she_o grant_v from_o time_n to_o time_n for_o the_o general_a good_a of_o the_o church_n which_o indulgence_n upon_o such_o occasion_n do_v likewise_o remit_v the_o pain_n due_a to_o sin_n be_v grant_v by_o authority_n of_o the_o key_n of_o the_o kingdom_n of_o heaven_n wherefore_o it_o be_v certain_a that_o we_o be_v not_o for_o the_o present_a oblige_v to_o the_o penitential_a canon_n but_o it_o suffice_v if_o the_o priest_n impose_v such_o pennance_n as_o have_v some_o proportion_n in_o chastise_v the_o sinner_n with_o as_o much_o pain_n and_o affliction_n as_o he_o take_v unlawful_a delight_n and_o content_v in_o his_o unbridled_a passion_n by_o sinful_a action_n which_o also_o may_v be_v prudent_o moderate_v upon_o just_a occasion_n by_o remit_v the_o penitent_a for_o the_o rest_n to_o the_o general_a fast_n and_o mortification_n observe_v in_o the_o church_n and_o to_o such_o voluntary_a affliction_n as_o he_o himself_o shall_v make_v choice_n of_o in_o which_o kind_n it_o be_v to_o be_v note_v that_o every_o one_o be_v bind_v to_o use_v voluntary_o such_o pennance_n as_o he_o find_v necessary_a to_o keep_v the_o spirit_n of_o compunction_n from_o decay_v in_o his_o heart_n and_o to_o preserve_v he_o from_o danger_n of_o fall_v into_o a_o contempt_n of_o god_n his_o wrath_n and_o of_o reparation_n due_a to_o his_o justice_n and_o therefore_o although_o it_o be_v true_a that_o we_o be_v not_o bind_v now_o to_o the_o actual_a practice_n of_o the_o penitential_a canon_n yet_o we_o be_v oblige_v to_o be_v so_o prepare_v and_o dispose_v in_o mind_n as_o to_o be_v ready_a to_o

the_o council_n of_o florence_n teach_v we_o that_o the_o sacrament_n of_o the_o old_a law_n be_v only_a figure_n of_o grace_n to_o be_v give_v by_o christ_n passion_n but_o they_o do_v not_o cause_n grace_n whereas_o the_o sacrament_n of_o the_o new_a law_n according_a to_o the_o doctrine_n of_o the_o same_o council_n do_v both_o contain_v grace_n and_o also_o cause_v it_o in_o those_o who_o receive_v they_o worthy_o wherefore_o you_o be_v to_o understand_v that_o as_o god_n allmighty_n bring_v the_o jew_n to_o love_v he_o by_o temporal_a promise_n and_o reward_n that_o he_o may_v afterward_o give_v they_o celestial_a one_o so_o their_o sacrament_n make_v they_o capable_a only_o of_o temporal_a blessing_n as_o circumcision_n make_v the_o jew_n to_o be_v one_o who_o have_v part_n in_o the_o land_n of_o promise_n their_o purification_n make_v he_o to_o be_v one_o who_o may_v offer_v sacrifice_n and_o be_v hear_v for_o obtain_v of_o child_n peace_n long_a life_n etc._n etc._n and_o therefore_o they_o be_v say_v to_o cleanse_v the_o body_n not_o the_o soul_n to_o be_v empty_a and_o poor_a element_n whereas_o the_o new_a law_n do_v bring_v we_o to_o love_v and_o serve_v god_n by_o the_o immediate_a promise_n of_o supernatural_a reward_n and_o so_o the_o sacrament_n of_o christian_n if_o they_o be_v worthy_o receive_v do_v give_v the_o thing_n themselves_o which_o these_o corporal_a promise_n do_v signify_v that_o be_v celestial_a good_n as_o baptism_n make_v a_o man_n to_o be_v one_o who_o share_n be_v in_o heaven_n etc._n etc._n 5._o how_o many_o
