be_v joyous_a for_o this_o deed_n he_o take_v joy_n of_o his_o servant_n 9_o have_v therefore_o adjoin_v his_o son_n who_o he_o esteem_v his_o heir_n and_o most_o dear_a and_o his_o friend_n who_o he_o assemble_v in_o the_o council_n he_o declare_v these_o thing_n that_o he_o have_v charge_v his_o servant_n with_o to_o be_v do_v what_o thing_n he_o have_v do_v beside_o but_o they_o forthwith_o gratulate_v that_o servant_n that_o he_o have_v acquire_v so_o full_a a_o testimony_n of_o his_o lord_n 10_o after_o that_o he_o say_v to_o they_o i_o indeed_o promise_v to_o this_o servant_n his_o liberty_n if_o he_o shall_v keep_v my_o command_n which_o i_o have_v give_v and_o he_o have_v keep_v it_o and_o beside_o have_v add_v a_o good_a work_n on_o the_o vineyard_n which_o have_v exceed_o please_v i_o for_o this_o work_n therefore_o that_o he_o have_v do_v i_o will_v make_v he_o co-heir_n with_o my_o son_n because_o when_o he_o have_v perceive_v what_o be_v good_a he_o omit_v not_o but_o do_v it_o 11_o this_o counsel_n of_o the_o lord_n both_o his_o son_n and_o his_o friend_n approve_v of_o to_o wit_n that_o this_o servant_n shall_v be_v make_v co-heir_n with_o the_o son_n after_o that_o not_o many_o day_n the_o master_n of_o the_o family_n have_v call_v together_o his_o friend_n send_v of_o his_o supper_n to_o that_o servant_n many_o viand_n 12_o which_o when_o he_o have_v get_v he_o take_v of_o they_o what_o be_v sufficient_a to_o he_o but_o the_o rest_n be_v distribute_v to_o his_o fellow-servant_n which_o be_v get_v they_o become_v joyful_a and_o begin_v to_o wish_v to_o he_o that_o he_o shall_v obtain_v great_a favour_n with_o the_o lord_n for_o these_o thing_n which_o he_o have_v do_v to_o they_o 13_o all_o these_o when_o his_o lord_n have_v hear_v he_o take_v again_o exceed_o great_a joy_n and_o have_v call_v again_o his_o friend_n and_o his_o son_n he_o declare_v to_o they_o the_o deed_n of_o his_o servant_n of_o his_o victual_n which_o he_o have_v

say_v to_o he_o lord_n these_o similitude_n i_o know_v not_o nor_o can_v understand_v unless_o thou_o expound_v they_o unto_o i_o i_o will_v expound_v all_o thing_n to_o thou_o quoth_v he_o whatever_o i_o shall_v speak_v with_o thou_o or_o shall_v show_v thou_o keep_v the_o command_n of_o the_o lord_n and_o thou_o shall_v be_v approve_v and_o shall_v be_v write_v in_o the_o number_n of_o they_o that_o keep_v his_o command_n 15_o but_o beside_o what_o the_o lord_n have_v command_v if_o thou_o shall_v add_v something_o of_o good_a thou_o shall_v acquire_v great_a dignity_n to_o thyself_o and_o shall_v be_v more_o honourable_a with_o the_o lord_n than_o thou_o be_v about_o to_o be_v therefore_o if_o thou_o shall_v keep_v the_o command_n of_o the_o lord_n and_o shall_v also_o add_v unto_o they_o these_o station_n thou_o shall_v rejoice_v especial_o if_o according_o to_o my_o injunction_n thou_o shall_v keep_v they_o 16_o i_o say_v to_o he_o whatever_o thou_o shall_v enjoin_v i_o lord_n i_o will_v keep_v for_o i_o know_v thou_o to_o be_v about_o to_o be_v with_o i_o i_o will_v quoth_v he_o be_v with_o thou_o who_o have_v such_o a_o purpose_n but_o also_o i_o will_v be_v with_o all_o whosoever_o have_v the_o same_o purpose_n this_o fast_a say_v he_o the_o command_n of_o the_o lord_n be_v keep_v be_v exceed_v good_a 17_o so_o therefore_o thou_o shall_v keep_v it_o first_o of_o all_o beware_v from_o every_o wicked_a and_o filthy_a word_n and_o from_o every_o noxious_a desire_n and_o purify_v thy_o sense_n from_o all_o the_o vanity_n of_o this_o world_n if_o thou_o shall_v keep_v these_o thing_n this_o shall_v be_v a_o just_a fast_o 18_o therefore_o so_o thou_o shall_v do_v the_o thing_n above-written_a be_v finish_v in_o that_o day_n wherein_o thou_o shall_v fast_o thou_o shall_v taste_v nothing_o at_o all_o except_o bread_n and_o water_n and_o compute_v the_o quantity_n of_o food_n which_o the_o rest_n of_o the_o day_n thou_o will_v eat_v the_o cost_n of_o that_o day_n which_o thou_o will_v have_v make_v thou_o shall_v lay_v up_o and_o shall_v give_v it_o to_o the_o widow_n and_o pupil_n or_o to_o the_o needy_a and_o so_o shall_v thou_o consummate_v the_o humility_n of_o thy_o soul_n that_o he_o who_o shall_v get_v of_o it_o shall_v fill_v his_o soul_n and_o for_o thou_o his_o prayer_n shall_v go_v to_o the_o lord_n god_n 19_o so_o therefore_o if_o thou_o shall_v accomplish_v thy_o fast_n even_o as_o i_o enjoin_v thou_o thy_o sacrifice_n shall_v be_v accept_v by_o the_o lord_n and_o this_o thy_o fast_n shall_v be_v write_v this_o station_n so_o act_v be_v good_a cheerful_a and_o accept_v by_o the_o lord_n these_o thing_n if_o thou_o shall_v keep_v with_o thy_o child_n and_o thy_o whole_a house_n have_v keep_v they_o thou_o shall_v be_v happy_a and_o whosoever_o shall_v keep_v these_o thing_n hear_v they_o shall_v be_v happy_a and_o whatsoever_o they_o shall_v ask_v from_o the_o lord_n they_o shall_v obtain_v it_o 20_o and_o i_o pray_v he_o that_o to_o i_o he_o will_v explain_v this_o similitude_n of_o the_o ground_n and_o the_o lord_n and_o the_o vineyard_n and_o of_o the_o servant_n who_o have_v prop_v the_o vineyard_n and_o the_o herb_n which_o be_v extract_v from_o the_o vineyard_n and_o of_o the_o son_n and_o of_o the_o friend_n which_o he_o call_v into_o council_n for_o i_o understand_v that_o to_o be_v a_o similitude_n 21_o he_o say_v to_o i_o thou_o be_v very_o bold_a to_o ask_v for_o thou_o ought_v to_o ask_v nothing_o for_o if_o it_o shall_v be_v fit_a to_o be_v demonstrate_v it_o shall_v be_v demonstrate_v to_o thou_o i_o say_v to_o he_o lord_n what_o thing_n soever_o thou_o shall_v show_v i_o and_o shall_v not_o declare_v they_o in_o vain_a shall_v i_o see_v they_o if_o i_o shall_v not_o understand_v what_o they_o be_v and_o if_o thou_o shall_v propose_v any_o similitude_n and_o shall_v not_o expound_v they_o in_o vain_a shall_v i_o hear_v they_o 22_o he_o answer_v i_o again_o say_v whosoever_o be_v a_o servant_n of_o god_n and_o have_v the_o lord_n in_o his_o inward_a part_n he_o ask_v from_o he_o a_o intellect_n and_o obtain_v it_o and_o every_o similitude_n he_o unfold_v and_o understand_v the_o word_n of_o the_o lord_n which_o need_v inquisition_n but_o whoso_o be_v sluggish_a and_o slow_a to_o pray_v they_o doubt_v to_o ask_v of_o the_o lord_n see_v he_o be_v a_o lord_n of_o such_o profound_a goodness_n that_o he_o afford_v all_o thing_n without_o intermission_n to_o the_o asker_n from_o he_o 23_o thou_o therefore_o who_o be_v confirm_v by_o his_o messenger_n and_o have_v receive_v such_o a_o potent_a prayer_n see_v thou_o be_v not_o sluggish_a why_o now_o do_v thou_o not_o ask_v a_o intellect_n from_o the_o lord_n and_o get_v it_o i_o say_v to_o he_o while_o i_o may_v have_v thou_o present_a it_o be_v necessary_a that_o from_o thou_o i_o ask_v and_o require_v for_o thou_o show_v i_o all_o thing_n and_o speak_v when_o thou_o be_v present_a 24_o for_o if_o without_o thou_o i_o shall_v see_v these_o thing_n or_o hear_v they_o than_o i_o shall_v ask_v the_o lord_n that_o he_o will_v show_v they_o to_o i_o and_o he_o answer_v i_o have_v say_v to_o thou_o a_o little_a before_o thou_o to_o be_v cunning_a and_o bold_a who_o ask_v the_o solution_n of_o similitude_n but_o because_o thou_o be_v so_o importunate_a i_o will_v resolve_v thou_o this_o similitude_n which_o thou_o desire_v that_o thou_o may_v make_v it_o know_v to_o all_o 25_o hear_v now_o quoth_v he_o and_o perceive_v in_o thy_o mind_n that_o ground_n signify_v the_o world_n which_o be_v put_v for_o a_o similitude_n but_o the_o lord_n of_o the_o ground_n be_v demonstrate_v to_o be_v he_o who_o create_v all_o thing_n and_o finish_v they_o and_o give_v they_o power_n but_o the_o son_n be_v the_o holy_a spirit_n but_o that_o servant_n be_v the_o son_n of_o god_n but_o the_o vineyard_n be_v the_o people_n who_o he_o keep_v but_o the_o prop_n be_v the_o messenger_n who_o be_v set_v over_o by_o the_o lord_n to_o gather_v in_o his_o people_n 26_o but_o the_o weed_n which_o be_v pluck_v out_o from_o the_o vineyard_n be_v the_o trespass_n of_o the_o servant_n of_o god_n but_o the_o victual_n which_o he_o send_v of_o his_o supper_n be_v the_o commandment_n which_o by_o his_o son_n he_o have_v give_v to_o his_o people_n but_o these_o friend_n who_o he_o call_v in_o counsel_n be_v the_o holy_a angel_n who_o he_o at_o first_o create_v but_o the_o absence_n of_o that_o master_n of_o the_o family_n
be_v the_o time_n which_o remain_v until_o his_o come_n 27_o i_o say_v to_o he_o lord_n magnificent_o and_o wonderful_o and_o honest_o do_v all_o these_o thing_n carry_v themselves_o therefore_o can_v i_o be_v able_a to_o understand_v these_o lord_n quoth_v i_o indeed_o not_o any_o man_n beside_o although_o he_o be_v very_o prudent_a shall_v be_v able_a to_o understand_v these_o but_o even_o now_o lord_n demonstrate_v to_o i_o what_o i_o ask_v ask_v what_o thou_o will_v quoth_v he_o 28_o why_o quoth_v i_o be_v the_o son_n of_o god_n in_o this_o similitude_n put_v in_o a_o servile_a place_n hear_v say_v he_o in_o a_o servile_a condition_n the_o son_n of_o god_n be_v not_o put_v but_o in_o great_a power_n and_o authority_n and_o i_o say_v how_o say_v i_o lord_n i_o understand_v not_o because_o quoth_v he_o to_o those_o who_o he_o have_v deliver_v to_o his_o son_n have_v his_o son_n set_v over_o messenger_n to_o preserve_v they_o all_o but_o he_o have_v labour_v very_o much_o and_o have_v endure_v very_o much_o that_o he_o shall_v abolish_v their_o trespass_n 29_o for_o no_o vineyard_n can_v be_v dig_v without_o labour_n and_o grief_n therefore_o the_o sin_n of_o his_o people_n be_v blot_v out_o he_o himself_o have_v show_v unto_o they_o the_o journey_n of_o life_n have_v give_v they_o the_o law_n which_o he_o have_v get_v from_o the_o father_n thou_o see_v therefore_o him_z to_o be_v the_o lord_n of_o the_o people_n have_v get_v from_o his_o father_n all_o power_n 30_o but_o why_o the_o lord_n shall_v add_v in_o his_o counsel_n the_o son_n of_o his_o inheritance_n and_o the_o good_a angel_n because_o the_o messenger_n hear_v that_o holy_a spirit_n which_o waspe_n infuse_v first_o of_o all_z thing_n in_o the_o body_n in_o which_o god_n shall_v dwell_v for_o the_o intellect_n have_v place_v it_o in_o the_o body_n as_o it_o seem_v to_o he_o 31_o therefore_o this_o body_n into_o which_o the_o holy_a spirit_n be_v bring_v in_o have_v obey_v that_o spirit_n right_o walk_v in_o modesty_n and_o chaste_o nor_o have_v at_o all_o defile_v that_o spirit_n therefore_o when_o that_o body_n have_v obey_v at_o every_o time_n the_o holy_a spirit_n right_o and_o chaste_o and_o have_v labour_v with_o it_o nor_o have_v faint_v at_o any_o time_n that_o weary_a body_n converse_v servile_o but_o strong_o with_o the_o holy_a spirit_n approve_v to_o god_n it_o be_v receive_v 32_o therefore_o it_o be_v potent_a course_n of_o this_o sort_n please_v god_n because_o it_o have_v not_o be_v maculate_v in_o the_o earth_n possess_v in_o itself_o the_o holy_a spirit_n in_o

to_o the_o structure_n of_o this_o tower_n 77_o and_o i_o say_v also_o now_o lord_n demonstrate_v to_o i_o what_o seek_v thou_o say_v he_o why_o quoth_v i_o ascend_v these_o stone_n out_o of_o the_o deep_a and_o be_v place_v into_o the_o build_n of_o this_o tower_n see_v long_o ago_o they_o carry_v the_o just_a spirit_n it_o must_v needs_o be_v quoth_v he_o that_o by_o water_n they_o have_v to_o ascend_v that_o they_o may_v rest_v for_o they_o can_v not_o otherwise_o enter_v into_o the_o kingdom_n of_o god_n then_o that_o they_o shall_v lay_v down_o the_o mortality_n of_o the_o former_a life_n 78_o therefore_o they_o be_v dead_a be_v seal_v with_o the_o seal_n of_o the_o son_n of_o god_n and_o have_v enter_v into_o the_o kingdom_n of_o god_n for_o before_o that_o a_o man_n get_v the_o name_n of_o the_o son_n of_o god_n he_o be_v design_v for_o death_n but_o as_o soon_o as_o he_o have_v get_v the_o seal_n he_o be_v free_v from_o death_n and_o deliver_v to_o life_n but_o that_o seal_n be_v water_n into_o which_o man_n descend_v be_v bind_v unto_o death_n but_o they_o ascend_v assign_v to_o life_n and_o to_o they_o therefore_o be_v preach_v that_o seal_n and_o they_o have_v use_v it_o that_o they_o may_v enter_v into_o the_o kingdom_n of_o god_n 79_o and_o i_o say_v therefore_o why_o lord_n do_v these_o forty_o stone_n ascend_v with_o they_o from_o the_o deep_a have_v already_o that_o seal_n and_o he_o say_v because_o these_o apostle_n and_o teacher_n who_o have_v preach_v the_o name_n of_o the_o son_n of_o god_n when_o have_v his_o faith_n and_o power_n they_o have_v die_v they_o preach_v to_o these_o who_o have_v die_v before_o they_o and_o they_o give_v to_o they_o that_o seal_v therefore_o they_o descend_v into_o the_o water_n with_o they_o and_o again_o they_o ascend_v
but_o these_o ascend_v alive_a but_o they_o who_o be_v decease_v before_o descend_v indeed_o dead_a but_o ascend_v alive_a 80_o therefore_o by_o they_o they_o receive_v life_n and_o know_v the_o son_n of_o god_n and_o therefore_o they_o ascend_v with_o they_o and_o agree_v into_o the_o structure_n of_o the_o tower_n neither_o hew_v but_o they_o be_v build_v entire_a because_o be_v full_a of_o

also_o demonstrate_v to_o i_o concern_v these_o mountain_n why_o they_o be_v diverse_a and_o of_o one_o and_o of_o another_o figure_n hear_v quoth_v he_o these_o twelve_o mountain_n who_o thou_o see_v

various_a and_o of_o one_o and_o of_o another_o figure_n hear_v thou_o 82_o these_o twelve_o generation_n which_o obtain_v the_o whole_a world_n be_v twelve_o nation_n and_o as_o thou_o see_v all_o

this_o to_o i_o since_o these_o mountain_n be_v so_o various_a by_o what_o manner_n shall_v they_o agree_v into_o the_o structure_n of_o this_o tower_n and_o be_v bring_v to_o one_o colour_n and_o be_v no_o less_o shine_v than_o these_o that_o ascend_v out_o of_o the_o deep_a because_o say_v he_o all_o the_o nation_n which_o be_v under_o heaven_n have_v hear_v and_o believe_v and_o be_v call_v

of_o god_n 86_o and_o therefore_o these_o indeed_o be_v destinate_a to_o death_n but_o these_o who_o have_v know_v the_o lord_n and_o his_o wonder_n and_o work_n have_v see_v if_o they_o live_v
