in_o my_o beginning_n think_v of_o my_o end_n that_o in_o my_o end_n i_o may_v rejoice_v in_o my_o better_a and_o never-ending_a beginning_n 5_o job_n make_v a_o covenant_n with_o his_o eye_n lest_o at_o any_o time_n they_o shall_v look_v upon_o a_o maid_n but_o since_o i_o can_v make_v a_o covenant_n with_o my_o eye_n lest_o at_o any_o time_n they_o look_v upon_o a_o maid_n i_o will_v try_v if_o i_o can_v make_v a_o covenant_n with_o my_o heart_n lest_o at_o any_o time_n it_o desire_v a_o maid_n 6_o god_n make_v heaven_n for_o the_o good_a hell_n for_o the_o bad_a but_o he_o make_v earth_n for_o both_o this_o show_v we_o that_o while_o we_o live_v here_o we_o must_v of_o necessity_n converse_v with_o both_o i_o will_v therefore_o lay_v my_o ear_n open_a to_o all_o but_o my_o heart_n to_o few_o 7_o our_o master_n have_v leave_v we_o two_o sacrament_n one_o of_o which_o tell_v we_o we_o that_o we_o be_v christian_n the_o other_o bid_v we_o live_v like_o christian_n this_o late_a be_v that_o tree_n of_o life_n the_o passage_n whereto_o be_v guard_v by_o no_o cherubin_n nor_o by_o any_o brandish_a sword_n but_o whosoever_o will_v may_v come_v thither_o and_o eat_v worthy_o may_v live_v for_o ever_o when_o therefore_o i_o eat_v of_o this_o tree_n i_o will_v remember_v out_o of_o who_o blood_n it_o spring_v the_o memory_n whereof_o will_v suggest_v unto_o i_o that_o if_o i_o eat_v not_o this_o fruit_n worthy_o i_o be_o unworthy_a to_o be_v a_o branch_n of_o the_o tree_n that_o be_v if_o i_o eat_v not_o his_o body_n worthy_o i_o be_o then_o unworthy_a to_o be_v a_o member_n of_o that_o body_n whereof_o he_o be_v the_o head_n 8_o the_o first_o murderer_n of_o all_o mankind_n be_v also_o the_o first_o liar_n two_o horrible_a vice_n and_o alike_o bloody_a for_o a_o man_n have_v better_o be_v murder_v then_o belie_v have_v his_o person_n slay_v than_o his_o fame_n i_o will_v therefore_o fly_v from_o a_o liar_n as_o from_o a_o asp_n the_o poison_n of_o who_o tongue_n be_v mortal_a 9_o beside_o our_o internal_a original_a and_o actual_a sin_n we_o have_v external_a &_o accidental_a crime_n lay_v upon_o we_o by_o our_o family_n but_o in_o my_o conceit_n very_o unjust_o for_o we_o have_v enough_o to_o answer_v for_o the_o first_o man_n and_o be_v no_o way_n liable_a to_o the_o debt_n of_o his_o successor_n why_o shall_v man_n lay_v more_o upon_o man_n than_o god_n himself_o do_v as_o with_o he_o the_o virtue_n of_o my_o house_n can_v save_v i_o no_o more_o can_v the_o vice_n of_o it_o damn_v i_o the_o law_n of_o god_n shall_v be_v with_o i_o above_o the_o law_n of_o arm_n or_o the_o law_n of_o nation_n 10_o those_o that_o serve_v god_n only_o upon_o sunday_n be_v like_o servant_n extraordinary_a who_o come_v to_o wait_v upon_o their_o great_a lord_n only_o upon_o great_a day_n but_o i_o will_v make_v every_o day_n my_o sabbath_n and_o will_v follow_v my_o lord_n in_o ordinary_a make_v charity_n my_o cognizance_n 11_o while_o the_o papist_n and_o we_o contend_v which_o of_o we_o err_v most_o in_o matter_n of_o faith_n we_o strive_v who_o shall_v err_v most_o in_o matter_n of_o life_n so_o that_o we_o study_n at_o once_o who_o shall_v believe_v best_a and_o who_o shall_v live_v worst_a not_o who_o shall_v be_v most_o virtuous_a but_o who_o most_o envious_a my_o chief_a care_n therefore_o shall_v be_v to_o live_v well_o so_o shall_v i_o ever_o be_v sure_a to_o fare_v better_o than_o he_o who_o believe_v well_o and_o live_v ill_a 12_o two_o sort_n of_o man_n i_o loathe_v and_o detest_v a_o fool_n and_o a_o carper_n yet_o of_o the_o two_o i_o will_v make_v choice_n to_o hold_v discourse_n with_o the_o carper_n for_o i_o have_v rather_o be_v misunderstand_v in_o all_o than_o not_o to_o be_v understand_v at_o all_o i_o will_v therefore_o only_o beware_v of_o the_o one_o but_o i_o will_v scorn_v the_o other_o 13_o laugh_v be_v only_o proper_a to_o man_n among_o all_o live_a creature_n whereas_o indeed_o he_o ought_v ever_o to_o be_v weep_v in_o that_o he_o ever_o sin_n &_o the_o beast_n ever_o laugh_v to_o see_v man_n so_o much_o abuse_v his_o so_o much_o reason_n o_o if_o a_o man_n know_v before_o he_o come_v into_o the_o world_n what_o he_o shall_v endure_v in_o the_o world_n he_o will_v fear_v his_o first_o day_n more_o than_o his_o last_o i_o will_v therefore_o weep_v at_o my_o own_o misery_n and_o never_o laugh_v but_o at_o my_o own_o folly_n and_o since_o my_o master_n be_v vir_fw-la dolorum_fw-la a_o man_n of_o grief_n it_o shall_v not_o be_v say_v that_o i_o be_o vir_fw-la voluptatum_fw-la a_o man_n of_o mirth_n 14_o valour_n have_v many_o servant_n go_v under_o her_o name_n but_o few_o of_o they_o be_v she_o true_a favourite_n some_o snatch_n courage_n from_o she_o and_o want_v wisdom_n to_o rule_v it_o be_v disclaim_v by_o she_o other_o be_v giant_n in_o their_o word_n and_o dwarf_n in_o their_o deed_n she_o hate_v he_o who_o speak_v more_o than_o he_o dare_v do_v and_o make_v he_o her_o champion_n who_o dare_v do_v more_o than_o he_o dare_v speak_v ay_o i_o he_o be_v the_o man_n with_o she_o who_o wound_v his_o enemy_n with_o his_o sword_n not_o with_o his_o word_n yet_o christianity_n unhorse_n even_o valour_n herself_o and_o depose_v she_o make_v new_a law_n and_o proclaim_v he_o the_o brave_a combatant_n who_o can_v conquer_v himself_o that_o be_v who_o can_v ascend_v so_o high_a above_o nature_n as_o to_o descend_v below_o himself_o and_o to_o offer_v service_n where_o he_o owe_v revenge_n i_o will_v invoke_v god_n to_o endue_v i_o with_o this_o supernatural_a gift_n and_o withal_o to_o deliver_v i_o from_o a_o valiant_a drunkard_n and_o a_o valiant_a fool_n 15_o when_o my_o memory_n look_v back_o as_o far_o as_o she_o can_v see_v i_o think_v it_o be_v but_o yesterday_o &_o yet_o i_o know_v by_o course_n of_o nature_n my_o life_n can_v be_v treble_v now_o i_o have_v endure_v so_o much_o misery_n in_o my_o one_o yesterday_o that_o i_o be_o afraid_a to_o think_v of_o the_o two_o tomorrow_n 16_o it_o be_v a_o wonder_n to_o see_v the_o childish_a whine_a we_o nowadays_o use_v at_o the_o funeral_n of_o our_o friend_n if_o we_o can_v howl_v they_o back_o again_o our_o lamentation_n be_v to_o some_o purpose_n but_o as_o they_o be_v they_o be_v vain_a and_o in_o vain_a if_o therefore_o my_o friend_n be_v good_a i_o will_v be_v glad_a that_o he_o be_v rid_v of_o the_o world_n if_o he_o be_v bad_a i_o will_v not_o be_v sorry_a that_o the_o world_n be_v rid_v of_o he_o but_o that_o so_o woeful_a a_o world_n be_v like_a to_o receive_v he_o if_o i_o have_v a_o friend_n who_o soul_n join_v with_o i_o make_v but_o one_o mind_n and_o that_o at_o his_o death_n i_o see_v my_o tear_n must_v burst_v out_o or_o my_o heart_n within_o i_o may_v then_o perhaps_o yield_v to_o the_o infirmity_n of_o the_o flesh_n yet_o not_o so_o much_o that_o he_o have_v leave_v the_o world_n as_o that_o he_o have_v leave_v i_o in_o it_o 17_o he_o be_v the_o most_o miserable_a of_o man_n who_o fashion_n his_o body_n and_o mind_n according_a to_o the_o opinion_n of_o the_o vulgar_a and_o he_o the_o happy_a who_o conform_v his_o life_n to_o the_o law_n of_o a_o true_a judgement_n this_o man_n know_v that_o we_o must_v hear_v with_o many_o but_o decree_n with_o few_o &_o join_v force_n with_o two_o or_o three_o brave_a retire_a spirit_n he_o bandy_v with_o a_o legion_n of_o the_o vulgar_a he_o look_v down_o with_o pity_n on_o the_o poor_a plebeian_n &_o like_o xerxes_n bewail_v their_o hard_a hap_n in_o that_o none_o of_o their_o name_n shall_v live_v after_o a_o few_o year_n know_v that_o the_o eternal_a substance_n of_o his_o soul_n be_v breathe_v into_o he_o by_o the_o eternal_a he_o care_v for_o nothing_o which_o be_v not_o able_a to_o holdout_a with_o eternity_n i_o will_v therefore_o despise_v thing_n momentary_a and_o since_o i_o have_v full_a assurance_n that_o i_o shall_v live_v in_o the_o other_o world_n my_o deed_n shall_v do_v their_o best_a to_o make_v i_o live_v in_o this_o 18_o nowaday_n the_o clothes_n be_v speak_v to_o and_o not_o the_o man_n and_o few_o have_v regard_n to_o the_o riches_n of_o
