fire of this loue could no longer be hid it must needs breake out by this holy misterie left vnto vs For which O Lord wee giue vnto thee honour prayse power and dominion now and for euermore Amen Certain short meditations vpon the passion to be vsed before and after the receiuing of the holy Communion O Good and gracious Iesu thou didst eate the Pascall Lambe in Ierusalem with thy deare beloued disciples and arising from supper didst gird thy selfe about with a towell and powredst water into a bason and kneeling vpon thy knees thou meekely didst wash the feete of thy disciples and wipedst them with a towell O most good gracious Iesu thou before thou shouldest suffer didst bequeath a most excellent good thing vnto thy children leauing for vs thy most sacred bodie to be our meate and thy most precious bloode to bee our drinke there can no wit nor vnderstanding penetrate and throughly see the bottomles depth of thy charitie O most good and gracious Iesu thou comming to the garden of Oliuer begannest to feare and to bee heauie wherupon y ● saidst to thy disciples My soule is sorrowfull vnto death And then diuided and sundred from thē thou setst thy selfe vpon thy knees and falling vpon the earth flat on thy face thou prayedst vnto thy Father and fully and wholly resignedst and yeeldedst thy selfe vnto him saying Father thy will bee done and at length through most painefull agonie wherwith thou was grieuously oprest afflicted thou sweatest throughout all thy body a bloudy sweate O good gracious Iesu thou kindled burning with an ineffable desire to redeem me wentst to meete thine enimies sufferedst Iudas the traitor to kisse thee thy selfe to be taken to bee bound with all confusion shame most vnworthily to be led vnto Annas where thou sufferedst most meekly to bee striken on thy most innocent face O good gracious Iesu thou being fast bound like a notorious malefactor wast led vnto the house of Cayphas the high Priest wher the Iewes most vniustly accused thee most spitefully struck buffetted thee scornefully wast thou mocked blindfolded being bidden to prophesie who strucke thee doing to thee innumerable iniuries all the night O good gracious Iesu thou in the morning wast broght before Pilate with most sweet plesant coūtenāce casting thine eies down stoodest before him in the Iudgemēt hall when thou wast most fasly accused of y e Iews many a rebuke reproach was giuen thee thou meekly heldst thy peace and madest no answere O good and gracious Iesu thou was sent from Pilate to Herode this Herode of a very curious and vaine mind coueting to see some miracle at thy hand asked demanded many things of thee the Iewes cried out against thee but thou amongst all these most wisely heldst thy peace For this cause Herod and all his despised thee O how vnmeasurable was this humility and obedience at the will pleasure of thine enemies thou wentst forth thou returnest again suffering thē to do to thee what they would O good and gracious Iesu thou in the iudgement hall stripped naked and without all compassion being bound fast to a pillar wast most cruelly scourged there was thy virginall and tender flesh cut with whips and torne with stripes altogether mangled and deformed with blacke blew and many a wound so that the streames of thy most precious blood ranne downe on euery side vpon the earth O good and gracious Iesu after that sore and sharpe scourging of thine to put thee to more shame thou waste clothed with a purple red garment vile and torne They also making a crowne of thornes painefully pressed the same vpon thy most holy heade and while the sharpe thornes pricked grieuously wounded sore thine head thy most pure blood ranne down aboundantly ouer all thy louely face neck then they putting a reed into thy right hand and kneeling downe before thee in scorne saluted thee saying All haile King of the Iewes O good and gracious Iesu thou wast brought forth by Pilate vnto the furious Iews to bee gazed looked vpon wearing thy crown of thornes purple garment but they cryed out with more cruelnes to haue thee crucified O good gracious Iesu thou wast deliuered vp vnto the will pleasure of the Iewes which by and by led thee to bee crucified laying thy heauie crosse vpon thy sore and bloudy shoulders thus didst thou beare most meekly thine owne crosse whose great weight pained thee ful sore cōming vnto the place of thy suffering all weary and breathlesse wyth paine for my sake thou didst not refuse to taste wine mingled with gall and mirrhe which was there giuen vnto thee O good gracious Iesu whē thou wast stripped naked thē were thy sore woūds by the violent plucking of thy clothes renewed O what a bitter and cruel paine didst thou suffer when thy tender hands vndefiled feet were with blunt and rough nayles fast nailed to the crosse and when the ioyntes of thy lims were loosed oh with what loue and sweetnes of charity didst thou offer thy hands feet to bee bored through Then out of the woundes of thy hands feet as it had bin out of the wels of thy precious blood plentifully gushed out O good gracious Iesu thou hanging vpō y e crosse betweene two theeues wast assailed with blasphemies but thou praiedst vnto thy father the while saying Father forgiue it them they wot not what they doe Then didst thou promise Paradise vnto the thiefe then gauest thou thy deare beloued Mother who pearced with the sword of sorrow stoode by the crosse vnto thy disciple Iohn and after thou haddest suffred three long houres intollerable paines and thirsted very vehemently they gaue thee eysell to drinke which when thou hadst tasted bowing downe thy venerable head thou yeeldedst vp thy spirit O good and gracious Iesu O good shepheard thus thou bestowedst thy selfe for thy sheepe the right side of thy bodie was opened with a speare out of which flowed both water and blood for vs thou wouldest that thy louing and tender heart should be wounded for my sake af●terward thy immaculate bodie was taken downe from the cros●e Ioseph Nichodemus wound it vp in sindon or cleane linnen laide it in a sepulcher My dear beloued yea the deare beloued of all my desires thou didst vouchsafe thus to die bee buried for my sake which liuest and raignest blessed glorious for euer and euer worlde without end Amen A Prayer O Sonne of the liuing God most highest God which for thy exceeding great charitie that thou didst beare towards me hast vouchsafed to bee made man thou wouldst for my sake be borne in a stable and laid in a manger to be fedde with the little milke of the maiden thy mother to suffer needines and pouertie to be sore troubled three thirtie yeares with manifold labors and careful paines thou woldest for
