rule_v the_o soul_n &_o heart_n of_o good_a christian_n give_v they_o spirit_n and_o grace_n to_o serve_v he_o willing_o &_o to_o seek_v his_o glory_n above_o all_o thing_n the_o kingdom_n of_o glory_n shall_v be_v in_o the_o other_o life_n after_o the_o day_n of_o judgement_n for_o that_o then_o god_n will_v reign_v with_o all_o the_o saint_n over_o all_o thing_n create_v without_o any_o resistance_n for_o they_o all_o the_o force_n of_o the_o devil_n shall_v be_v take_v away_o &_o also_o of_o all_o perverse_a man_n who_o shall_v be_v shut_v up_o in_o eternal_a prison_n of_o hell_n in_o that_o time_n shall_v death_n also_o be_v extinguish_v &_o corruption_n with_o all_o the_o tentation_n of_o the_o world_n &_o of_o the_o flesh_n which_o now_o trouble_v the_o servant_n of_o god_n so_o that_o shall_v be_v quiet_a &_o peaceable_a kingdom_n with_o secure_a possession_n of_o perfect_a &_o eternal_a felicity_n s_o which_o of_o these_o three_o kingdom_n ●s_v speak_v of_o in_o this_o

misery_n of_o this_o life_n &_o so_o in_o this_o petition_n we_o demand_v our_o chief_a good_a and_o the_o perfect_a glory_n of_o both_o soul_n and_o body_n s_o if_o the_o kingdom_n of_o god_n which_o we_o desire_v may_v comequick_o shall_v begin_v after_o the_o day_n of_o judgement_n than_o we_o desire_v &_o demand_v that_o this_o world_n shall_v speedy_o end_v &_o that_o the_o day_n of_o judgement_n shall_v come_v short_o m_o so_o it_o be_v for_o think_v the_o lover_n of_o the_o world_n can_v have_v no_o worse_o news_n then_o to_o hear_v the_o day_n of_o judgement_n name_v yet_o the_o citizne_n of_o heaven_n who_o live_v now_o as_o pilgrim_n and_o banish_v man_n here_o below_o in_o earth_n have_v no_o other_o great_a desire_n where_o upon_o s._n augustin_n say_v that_o like_o as_o before_o christ_n come_v into_o the_o world_n all_o the_o desire_n of_o the_o saint_n of_o the_o ancient_a law_n be_v direct_v to_o the_o first_o come_v of_o christ_n so_o now_o all_o the_o desire_n of_o holy_a man_n of_o the_o new_a law_n be_v direct_v to_o the_o second_o come_v of_o the_o same_o christ_n which_o will_v bring_v we_o perfect_a beatitude_n s_o let_v we_o pass_v unto_o the_o three_o petition_n what_o do_v those_o word_n signify_v thy_o will_v be_v do_v in_o earth_n as_o it_o be_v in_o heaven_n m_o in_o these_o word_n be_v demand_v grace_n to_o observe_v well_o the_o law_n of_o god_n for_o that_o the_o eternal_a life_n which_o be_v the_o end_n of_o man_n be_v demand_v in_o the_o second_o petition_n it_o be_v convenient_a that_o the_o principal_a mean_n to_o arrive_v unto_o that_o end_n shall_v be_v demand_v next_o after_o &_o this_o principal_a mean_n be_v the_o observe_n of_o the_o commandment_n of_o god_n as_o our_o lord_n have_v say_v if_o thou_o will_v enter_v into_o eternal_a life_n keep_v the_o commandment_n &_o for_o so_o much_o as_o we_o be_v not_o able_a of_o ourselves_o to_o keep_v all_o the_o commandment_n in_o such_o sort_n as_o we_o ought_v therefore_o we_o demand_v of_o god_n that_o his_o will_v be_v do_v by_o we_o that_o be_v that_o he_o geve_v we_o grace_n to_o fulfil_v his_o will_n in_o obey_v whole_o and_o in_o all_o thing_n his_o holy_a commandment_n s_o i_o desire_v to_o know_v whether_o that_o beside_o the_o fulfil_n the_o will_n of_o god_n in_o observe_v the_o commandment_n we_o be_v bind_v also_o to_o conform_v our_o will_n with_o god_n will_v when_o he_o send_v we_o tribulation_n m_o we_o be_v bind_v at_o the_o jest_n not_o to_o murmur_n nor_o to_o grudge_v at_o the_o providence_n of_o god_n because_o all_o that_o he_o send_v or_o permit_v he_o do_v it_o to_o a_o good_a end_n to_o wit_n to_o give_v we_o occasion_n of_o great_a merit_n if_o we_o be_v good_a or_o else_o to_o purge_v we_o if_o we_o be_v bad_a s_o to_o what_o purpose_n be_v add_v in_o earth_n as_o it_o be_v in_o heaven_n m_o to_o teach_v we_o that_o we_o ought_v to_o endeavour_n to_o obey_v god_n and_o to_o observe_v his_o holy_a commandment_n with_o that_o perfection_n promptness_n &_o gladness_n with_o which_o the_o angel_n do_v obey_v in_o heaven_n who_o never_o commit_v any_o little_a default_n in_o observe_v all_o the_o commandment_n of_o god_n it_o may_v be_v also_o say_v that_o we_o desire_v and_o demand_v that_o sinner_n signify_v by_o the_o earth_n may_v obey_v god_n as_o the_o saint_n do_v obey_v he_o who_o be_v signify_v by_o heaven_n or_o else_o that_o the_o whole_a church_n signify_v by_o the_o earth_n may_v entire_o obey_v god_n as_o christ_n who_o be_v signify_v by_o heaven_n obey_v he_o s_o let_v we_o come_v unto_o the_o four_o petition_n what_o mean_v geve_v we_o this_o day_n our_o daily_a bread_n m_o with_o great_a reason_n bread_n be_v demand_v that_o maintain_v life_n after_o that_o grace_n have_v be_v demand_v which_o be_v life_n itself_o for_o that_o the_o first_o thing_n that_o any_o one_o begin_n to_o live_v desire_v be_v food_n where_o with_o life_n be_v maintain_v but_o you_o have_v to_o understande_v that_o in_o this_o prayer_n spiritual_a bread_n be_v principal_o demand_v which_o be_v the_o meat_n of_o the_o soul_n and_o secondary_o corporal_a bread_n which_o be_v the_o food_n for_o the_o body_n and_o by_o spiritual_a bread_n be_v understand_v the_o most_o holy_a sacrament_n of_o the_o altar_n that_o be_v the_o celestial_a and_o divine_a bread_n which_o merueilous_o nourish_v the_o life_n of_o the_o soul_n &_o likewise_o the_o word_n of_o god_n be_v understand_v which_o by_o preach_v or_o read_v of_o spiritual_a book_n help_v no_o little_a to_o nourish_v the_o same_o life_n of_o the_o soul_n final_o be_v understand_v the_o inspiration_n of_o god_n prayer_n and_o every_o other_o thing_n which_o help_v to_o maintain_v and_o increase_v grace_n in_o we_o the_o which_o as_o be_v say_v be_v the_o life_n of_o the_o soul_n by_o corporal_a bread_n be_v understand_v all_o that_o be_v needful_a unto_o we_o to_o maintain_v the_o life_n of_o the_o body_n which_o be_v as_o a_o instrument_n of_o the_o soul_n to_o do_v good_a work_n s_o wherefore_o be_v it_o say_v that_o this_o bread_n be_v we_o m_o with_o great_a mystery_n this_o bread_n be_v call_v we_o for_o if_o we_o speak_v of_o the_o bless_a sacrament_n that_o be_v our_o bread_n because_o of_o our_o salvation_n it_o be_v form_v by_o the_o holy_a ghost_n in_o the_o womb_n of_o the_o bless_a virgin_n and_o in_o a_o certain_a manner_n bake_a in_o the_o oven_n of_o the_o holy_a cross_n &_o serve_v up_o on_o the_o table_n of_o the_o altar_n by_o the_o hand_n of_o priest_n and_o moreover_o it_o be_v we_o because_o it_o be_v the_o bread_n proper_a of_o the_o child_n and_o may_v not_o be_v give_v unto_o dog_n that_o be_v to_o say_v to_o infidel_n nor_o to_o those_o that_o be_v in_o mortal_a sin_n if_o we_o speak_v of_o the_o doctrine_n we_o call_v it_o our_o bread_n to_o wit_n that_o which_o be_v distribute_v by_o the_o true_a preacher_n unto_o the_o child_n of_o the_o holy_a church_n and_o not_o the_o strange_a bread_n to_o wit_n that_o which_o all_o heretic_n give_v unto_o their_o follower_n which_o be_v corrupt_a and_o pestiferous_a bread_n but_o if_o we_o speak_v of_o corporal_a bread_n we_o desire_n that_o god_n will_v give_v we_o our_o own_o bread_n and_o not_o that_o which_o belong_v to_o other_o to_o wit_n that_o he_o will_v help_v we_o in_o just_a and_o lawful_a gain_n and_o again_o that_o he_o bless_v our_o land_n possession_n and_o all_o our_o labour_n to_o the_o end_n that_o without_o injury_n and_o fraud_n we_o may_v procure_v our_o live_n s_o wherefore_o be_v it_o say_v that_o this_o bread_n be_v daily_a m_o it_o be_v call_v daily_o that_o be_v to_o say_v bread_n for_o every_o day_n for_o that_o we_o desire_v not_o superfluous_a or_o curious_a thing_n but_o simple_o that_o which_o may_v suffice_v for_o the_o day_n refection_n and_o as_o well_o for_o the_o soul_n as_o for_o the_o body_n especial_o know_v that_o we_o be_v pilgrim_n and_o stranger_n in_o this_o life_n s_o wherefore_o be_v it_o say_v give_v unto_o we_o m_o because_o albeit_o we_o be_v willing_a to_o labour_v to_o have_v bread_n as_o well_o spiritual_a as_o corporal_a yet_o we_o know_v that_o our_o labour_n shall_v all_o be_v vain_a if_o god_n concur_v not_o with_o his_o grace_n as_o
time_n so_o far_o distant_a &_o that_o in_o his_o proper_a form_n wherefore_o can_v he_o not_o make_v that_o christ_n be_v present_a in_o many_o host_n under_o the_o form_n of_o the_o same_o host_n s_o tell_v i_o i_o pray_v you_o if_o christ_n depart_v from_o heaven_n when_o he_o come_v into_o the_o host_n or_o remain_v he_o still_o in_o heaven_n m_o when_o our_o lord_n begin_v to_o be_v present_a in_o the_o holy_a host_n he_o depart_v not_o from_o heaven_n but_o by_o divine_a power_n he_o be_v both_o present_a in_o heaven_n and_o in_o the_o host_n take_v the_o example_n of_o our_o soul_n when_o one_o be_v a_o child_n of_o few_o day_n old_a and_o very_o little_a as_o you_o see_v and_o be_v measure_v be_v find_v to_o be_v but_o one_o palm_n in_o length_n after_o increase_v he_o become_v double_a so_o big_a as_o he_o be_v before_o and_o so_o be_v measure_v he_o be_v above_o two_o palm_n now_o i_o demand_n of_o you_o if_o the_o soul_n which_o be_v first_o in_o one_o palm_n only_o have_v leave_v that_o palm_n to_o come_v into_o the_o second_o or_o no_o sure_o it_o be_v that_o it_o have_v not_o leave_v it_o neither_o be_v it_o enlarge_v because_o it_o be_v invisible_a so_o that_o without_o leave_v the_o first_o it_o come_v also_o into_o the_o second_o even_o so_o our_o lord_n leave_v not_o heaven_n to_o come_v into_o the_o host_n neither_o leave_v the_o one_o host_n to_o be_v in_o a_o other_o but_o he_o be_v present_a in_o heaven_n &_o in_o all_o the_o host_n at_o once_o s_o now_o i_o have_v learn_v that_o which_o be_v contain_v in_o this_o most_o holy_a sacrament_n i_o desire_v to_o know_v what_o thing_n be_v requisite_a to_o receive_v it_o worthy_o m_o three_o thing_n be_v reqwire_v the_o first_o be_v that_o the_o party_n do_v confess_v himself_o of_o all_o his_o sin_n &_o procure_v that_o he_o be_v in_o the_o grace_n of_o god_n when_o he_o go_v to_o communicate_v for_o that_o one_o of_o the_o cause_n wherefore_o this_o sacrament_n be_v give_v to_o we_o under_o the_o form_n of_o bread_n be_v to_o the_o end_n we_o understand_v that_o it_o be_v give_v to_o live_a man_n &_o not_o to_o deadman_n to_o nourish_v the_o grace_n of_o god_n and_o to_o increase_v it_o the_o second_o thing_n be_v that_o we_o be_v altogether_o fast_v that_o be_v at_o the_o least_o from_o midnight_n forward_o we_o have_v take_v nothing_o no_o not_o somuch_o as_o a_o little_a water_n the_o three_o that_o we_o well_o understand_v what_o we_o do_v and_o that_o we_o have_v devotion_n unto_o so_o great_a a_o mystery_n &_o therefore_o this_o sacrament_n be_v not_o give_v to_o child_n neither_o to_o fool_n neither_o to_o any_o other_o that_o have_v not_o the_o use_n of_o reason_n s_o how_o often_o ought_v we_o to_o communicate_v m_o the_o bond_n of_o holy_a church_n be_v to_o communicate_v at_o least_o once_o a_o year_n &_o that_o at_o easter_n yet_o it_o be_v convenient_a to_o do_v it_o often_o so_o it_o be_v by_o the_o advice_n of_o our_o ghostly_a father_n s_o declare_v now_o unto_o i_o the_o fruit_n which_o be_v get_v by_o this_o sacrament_n and_o the_o end_n for_o which_o it_o be_v institute_v m_o for_o three_o cause_n christ_n our_o lord_n have_v institute_v this_o most_o noble_a sacrament_n first_o that_o it_o shall_v be_v the_o meat_n of_o soul_n second_o that_o it_o shall_v be_v a_o sacrifice_n of_o the_o new_a law_n three_o that_o it_o may_v be_v a_o perpetual_a memory_n of_o his_o passion_n and_o so_o a_o most_o dear_a pledge_n of_o his_o love_n towards_o us._n s_o what_o effect_n do_v it_o work_v in_o respect_n it_o be_v the_o meat_n of_o soul_n m_o it_o work_v that_o effect_n which_o corporal_a meat_n work_v in_o body_n &_o therefore_o it_o be_v give_v to_o we_o in_o form_n of_o bread_n for_o like_a as_o bread_n conserve_v natural_a heat_n wherein_o the_o life_n of_o the_o body_n consist_v so_o this_o most_o holy_a sacrament_n when_o it_o be_v worthy_o receive_v conserve_v and_o increase_v charity_n which_o be_v the_o life_n and_o health_n of_o the_o soul_n s_o what_o effect_n do_v it_o work_n as_o it_o be_v a_o sacrifice_n m_o it_o reconsile_v god_n unto_o the_o world_n &_o obteyn_v many_o benefit_n not_o only_o for_o the_o live_n but_o also_o for_o the_o dead_a that_o be_v in_o purgatory_n you_o must_v understand_v that_o in_o the_o old_a testament_n they_o offer_v unto_o god_n many_o sacrifice_n of_o beast_n but_o in_o the_o new_a testament_n in_o place_n of_o all_o those_o sacrifice_n be_v succeed_v the_o mass_n in_o which_o by_o the_o hand_n of_o the_o priest_n be_v offer_v unto_o god_n the_o most_o acceptable_a sacrifice_n of_o the_o body_n and_o blood_n of_o his_o son_n which_o be_v signify_v in_o all_o those_o sacrifice_n of_o the_o old_a testament_n s_o what_o effect_n work_v it_o as_o the_o memorial_n and_o pledge_n of_o the_o love_n of_o our_o lord_n towards_o we_o m_o it_o make_v we_o mindful_a of_o so_o great_a a_o benefit_n and_o in_o flame_v we_o to_o love_v he_o again_o that_o have_v love_v we_o so_o much_o and_o therefore_o like_a as_o god_n in_o the_o old_a testament_n will_v have_v the_o jew_n not_o only_o to_o eat_v manna_n which_o he_o send_v they_o from_o heaven_n but_o also_o have_v they_o keep_v one_o vessel_n full_a of_o the_o same_o in_o memory_n of_o all_o the_o benefit_n he_o show_v they_o when_o he_o bring_v they_o out_o of_o egypt_n so_o christ_n will_v that_o this_o most_o holy_a sacrament_n shall_v not_o only_o be_v eat_v by_o we_o but_o also_o that_o it_o be_v conserve_v on_o the_o altar_n and_o sometime_o carry_v in_o

it_o long_o in_o make_v nor_o with_o instrument_n but_o in_o a_o moment_n and_o with_o one_o look_n only_o in_o like_a manner_n you_o have_v to_o think_v that_o god_n behold_v himself_o with_o the_o eye_n of_o understanding_n in_o the_o glass_n of_o his_o divinity_n do_v produce_v a_o image_n most_o like_a unto_o himself_o and_o because_o god_n have_v give_v unto_o this_o image_n all_o his_o own_o substance_n &_o his_o own_o be_v which_o we_o can_v not_o do_v in_o behold_v ourselves_o in_o a_o glass_n therefore_o that_o image_n be_v the_o true_a son_n of_o god_n albeit_o our_o image_n which_o we_o see_v in_o glass_n be_v not_o our_o son_n hereof_o you_o must_v gather_v that_o the_o son_n of_o god_n be_v god_n as_o the_o father_n and_o one_o the_o same_o god_n with_o the_o father_n see_v he_o have_v the_o same_o substance_n that_o his_o father_n have_v furthermore_o you_o have_v together_o that_o the_o son_n of_o god_n be_v not_o young_a than_o his_o father_n but_o be_v always_o as_o his_o father_n always_o be_v because_o he_o be_v beget_v by_o god_n only_o behold_v himself_o and_o god_n have_v always_o behold_v himself_o last_o you_o have_v together_o that_o the_o son_n of_o

because_o as_o i_o have_v tell_v you_o in_o declare_v the_o sign_n of_o the_o cross_n the_o son_n of_o god_n become_v man_n to_o redeem_v we_o again_o with_o his_o blood_n &_o to_o bring_v we_o to_o

the_o title_n of_o high_a priest_n and_o supreme_a king_n for_o that_o christ_n do_v signify_v all_o this_o and_o hereof_o we_o be_v call_v christian_n s_o what_o be_v the_o reason_n that_o all_o man_n take_v off_o their_o cap_n or_o bow_v down_o when_o jesus_n be_v name_v which_o be_v not_o do_v to_o other_o name_n of_o god_n m_o the_o reason_n be_v because_o this_o be_v the_o proper_a name_n of_o the_o son_n of_o god_n and_o all_o other_o name_n be_v common_a and_o again_o because_o this_o name_n do_v represent_v unto_o we_o how_o god_n humble_v himself_o for_o we_o in_o make_v himself_o

the_o son_n of_o god_n intend_v to_o make_v himself_o man_n will_v have_v no_o father_n in_o earth_n but_o a_o mother_n only_o to_o wit_n the_o perpetual_a and_o most_o pure_a virgin_n marie_n in_o

he_o be_v man_n have_v a_o mother_n without_o a_o father_n s_o i_o will_v have_v some_o example_n or_o similitude_n to_o understand_v how_o a_o virgin_n can_v conceive_v m_o the_o secret_n of_o god_n must_v be_v believe_v although_o they_o be_v not_o understand_v because_o god_n can_v do_v more_o they_o we_o can_v easy_o understand_v &_o therefore_o it_o be_v say_v in_o the_o begin_n of_o the_o

even_o so_o the_o unspotted_a womb_n of_o the_o b._n virgin_n marie_n without_o company_n of_o man_n at_o the_o only_a commandment_n of_o god_n by_o the_o work_n of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n bring_v forth_o that_o precious_a corn_n of_o the_o live_a body_n of_o the_o son_n of_o god_n s_o if_o jesus_n be_v conceive_v by_o the_o holy_a ghost_n it_o seem_v that_o it_o may_v be_v say_v that_o the_o holy_a ghost_n be_v his_o father_n as_o he_o be_v man_n m_o it_o be_v not_o so_o because_o to_o be_v a_o father_n it_o be_v not_o sufficient_a to_o make_v a_o thing_n but_o it_o be_v necessary_a that_o it_o be_v make_v of_o the_o substance_n of_o the_o maker_n and_o therefore_o we_o say_v that_o the_o maison_fw-fr be_v not_o the_o father_n of_o the_o house_n because_o he_o make_v it_o of_o stone_n and_o not_o of_o his_o proper_a substance_n so_o the_o holy_a ghost_n have_v make_v the_o body_n of_o the_o son_n of_o god_n but_o he_o have_v make_v it_o of_o the_o blood_n of_o the_o

be_v it_o say_v
will_v not_o have_v faith_n as_o jew_n turk_n &_o heretic_n or_o because_o they_o will_v not_o receive_v the_o sacrament_n as_o those_o that_o will_v not_o be_v baptize_v or_o will_v not_o confess_v

dead_a as_o of_o lazarus_n and_o the_o widow_n son_n that_o they_o be_v raise_v from_o death_n m_o the_o reason_n be_v because_o christ_n be_v the_o son_n of_o god_n rise_v of_o himself_o to_o wit_n by_o virtue_n of_o his_o godhead_n he_o reunite_v his_o soul_n to_o his_o body_n &_o so_o begin_v to_o live_v again_o but_o other_o dead_a man_n can_v not_o return_v to_o life_n by_o their_o own_o

only_o to_o jest_n or_o to_o wash_v only_o the_o body_n of_o some_o foulness_n he_o shall_v sin_v most_o grievous_o and_o it_o be_v no_o baptism_n and_o so_o the_o poor_a soul_n be_v not_o baptize_v s_o what_o effect_n work_v baptism_n m_o it_o work_v three_o effect_n first_o it_o renew_v a_o man_n perfect_o give_v he_o the_o grace_n of_o god_n by_o which_o be_v before_o the_o child_n of_o the_o

from_o all_o the_o pain_n of_o hell_n and_o of_o purgatory_n in_o so_o much_o that_o if_o one_o shall_v die_v immediate_o after_o baptism_n he_o shall_v go_v direct_o into_o heaven_n as_o if_o he_o have_v never_o commit_v sin_n second_o baptism_n leave_v in_o the_o soul_n a_o certain_a spiritual_a mark_n which_o can_v by_o any_o mean_n be_v take_v away_o by_o which_o it_o shall_v for_o ever_o

and_o can_v not_o at_o that_o age_n have_v any_o such_o desire_n of_o baptism_n it_o be_v therefore_o necessary_a to_o baptise_v they_o with_o all_o speed_n that_o may_v be_v and_o although_o they_o

of_o our_o lord_n the_o outward_a figure_n of_o bread_n remain_v which_o be_v there_o before_o the_o same_o also_o you_o be_v to_o understand_v of_o the_o chalice_n that_o be_v that_o there_o be_v

to_o wit_n when_o a_o man_n will_v not_o repent_v but_o will_v persevere_v in_o sin_n second_o we_o call_v penance_n the_o pain_n &_o affliction_n which_o a_o man_n take_v to_o satisfy_v to_o god_n for_o the_o evil_a he_o have_v do_v and_o so_o we_o say_v that_o one_o do_v great_a penance_n because_o he_o afflict_v himself_o much_o with_o fasting_n and_o other_o austerity_n three_o penance_n signify_v a_o sacrament_n institute_v by_o christ_n to_o remit_v sin_n of_o those_o who_o after_o baptism_n have_v lose_v the_o grace_n of_o god_n and_o do_v again_o repent_v the_o same_o and_o

of_o the_o priest_n for_o that_o christ_n have_v make_v the_o priest_n judge_n of_o sin_n commit_v after_o baptism_n and_o give_v they_o authority_n in_o his_o place_n to_o remit_v they_o so_o the_o

of_o this_o sacrament_n m_o three_o thing_n be_v necessary_a contrition_n confession_n and_o satisfaction_n which_o be_v three_o part_n of_o penance_n s_o what_o mean_v contrition_n m_o that_o the_o

that_o the_o sinner_n have_v firm_a purpose_n to_o sin_n no_o more_o s_o what_o mean_v confession_n m_o the_o sinner_n must_v not_o be_v content_a with_o only_a contrition_n but_o he_o must_v go_v to_o the_o foot_n of_o the_o priest_n as_o magdalen_n go_v unto_o the_o foot_n of_o christ_n and_o confess_v his_o sin_n with_o truth_n not_o add_v nor_o diminish_v nor_o mix_v any_o lie_n with_o
