1._o what_o be_v the_o mean_n which_o god_n have_v leave_v to_o abolish_v sin_n and_o to_o recover_v grace_n when_o we_o have_v lose_v it_o they_o be_v the_o holy_a sacrament_n of_o the_o new_a law_n

and_o do_v give_v they_o a_o right_a to_o certain_a special_a help_n of_o grace_n proper_a to_o each_o sacrament_n which_o sign_n represent_v in_o some_o sort_n the_o special_a effect_n of_o that_o

sacrament_n differ_v from_o sacramentall_n because_o they_o be_v the_o main_a instrument_n of_o grace_n and_o can_v be_v institute_v by_o any_o but_o by_o christ_n himself_o whereas_o sacramentall_n be_v institute_v by_o the_o church_n and_o be_v only_o make_v by_o certain_a blessing_n as_o holy_a water_n and_o the_o like_a which_o though_o they_o be_v bless_v yet_o they_o do_v not_o produce_v

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

sacrament_n and_o yet_o no_o man_n doubt_v of_o they_o wherefore_o as_o we_o gather_v out_o of_o scripture_n that_o these_o two_o be_v sacrament_n because_o they_o have_v all_o thing_n essential_a to_o a_o sacrament_n that_o be_v that_o they_o confer_v grace_n by_o a_o outward_a sensible_a sign_n so_o do_v we_o by_o the_o same_o rule_n sinde_v in_o scripture_n that_o there_o be_v seven_o

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

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

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
