of_o base_a allay_n as_o there_o be_v five_o degree_n of_o true_a love_n so_o be_v there_o also_o five_o mark_n to_o discern_v it_o 1_o the_o first_o mark_n of_o the_o true_a love_n of_o god_n be_v that_o it_o quench_v all_o unchaste_a love_n 2_o the_o second_o mark_n and_o effect_n of_o this_o love_n be_v that_o it_o bring_v peace_n and_o tranquillity_n to_o the_o mind_n 3_o the_o three_o be_v charity_n towards_o our_o neighbour_n 4_o the_o four_o be_v the_o pleasure_n to_o communicate_v often_o with_o god_n 5_o the_o five_o be_v the_o zeal_n of_o the_o glory_n of_o god_n which_o rejoice_v or_o sorrow_v according_a as_o god_n be_v honour_v or_o dishonour_v whosoever_o feel_v in_o himself_o these_o effect_n may_v assure_v himself_o that_o he_o love_v god_n with_o a_o true_a affection_n yea_o although_o that_o some_o coldness_n chance_n among_o this_o holy_a ardour_n and_o that_o the_o love_n of_o himself_o be_v mingle_v withal_o yet_o this_o love_n for_o be_v weak_a shall_v not_o

perfect_o the_o first_o mark_n of_o god_n love._n there_o be_v three_o sort_n of_o love_n extinguish_v the_o one_o whereof_o be_v ever_o good_a the_o other_o be_v ever_o bad_a the_o three_o good_a of_o his_o own_o nature_n but_o accidental_o bad_a because_o of_o our_o bad_a disposition_n that_o which_o be_v always_o good_a be_v the_o love_n of_o god_n in_o which_o it_o be_v impossible_a to_o sin_n through_o excess_n and_o in_o this_o point_n it_o be_v good_a to_o let_v slip_v the_o reins_n of_o our_o desire_n the_o measure_n of_o love_a god_n be_v to_o love_v he_o without_o measure_n the_o love_n which_o be_v always_o bad_a be_v the_o love_n of_o murder_n of_o theft_n and_o of_o unchaste_a pleasure_n etc._n etc._n the_o love_n which_o be_v good_a of_o it_o own_o nature_n become_v

by_o excess_n and_o intemperance_n the_o love_n of_o god_n do_v diverse_o behave_v itself_o towards_o the_o other_o two_o sort_n of_o love_n for_o it_o rank_v the_o latter_a within_o the_o limit_n of_o mediocrity_n &_o teach_v we_o to_o satisfy_v our_o necessity_n and_o not_o our_o curiosity_n it_o reject_v all_o farre-fetched_n delicate_n be_v the_o distaste_n of_o a_o proud_a stomach_n which_o awaken_v itself_o with_o artificial_a mean_n teach_v we_o to_o nourish_v this_o body_n so_o that_o it_o may_v not_o be_v a_o hindrance_n to_o the_o soul_n to_o watch_v and_o be_v sober_a lest_o we_o enter_v into_o temptation_n as_o for_o the_o second_o love_n it_o can_v in_o no_o wise_a remain_n with_o the_o love_n of_o god_n but_o the_o fear_n of_o god_n do_v whole_o cut_v it_o off_o because_o that_o in_o a_o thing_n entire_o bad_a we_o be_v not_o to_o seek_v for_o any_o mediocrity_n none_o can_v be_v a_o fornicator_n a_o adulterer_n or_o a_o murderer_n by_o measure_n for_o the_o least_o inclination_n unto_o these_o thing_n be_v sin_n against_o god_n but_o above_o all_o the_o strength_n of_o god_n love_n be_v show_v in_o root_a out_o of_o our_o heart_n unchaste_a love_n
