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

cast_v off_o from_o you_o the_o naughtiness_n of_o this_o world_n but_o put_v you_o on_o all_o virtue_n and_o equity_n and_o you_o shall_v be_v able_a to_o keep_v these_o command_n neither_o

live_v to_o god_n these_o thing_n by_o we_o be_v speak_v to_o you_o 5_o after_z he_o have_v speak_v these_o thing_n with_o i_o he_o say_v to_o i_o let_v we_o go_v into_o the_o field_n and_o i_o will_v

in_o a_o upper_a scarlet_a coat_n of_o the_o colour_n of_o his_o clothes_n 6_o but_o he_o feed_v plenteous_a sheep_n and_o these_o sheep_n be_v as_o it_o be_v in_o pleasure_n and_o many_o delight_n and_o they_o exult_v with_o joy_n and_o leap_v do_v run_v hither_o and_o thither_o and_o the_o shepherd_n himself_o exceed_o take_v delight_n of_o his_o flock_n and_o the_o countenance_n of_o that_o

be_v the_o messenger_n of_o enticement_n sweetness_n and_o pleasure_n he_o therefore_o corrupt_v the_o mind_n of_o the_o servant_n of_o god_n and_o turn_v they_o away_o from_o the_o truth_n delight_v they_o with_o lust_n and_o they_o perish_v for_o they_o forget_v the_o command_n of_o the_o live_a god_n they_o converse_v in_o luxury_n &_o in_o vain_a delight_n and_o they_o be_v corrupt_v by_o this_o evil_a messenger_n some_o even_a until_o death_n but_o other_o even_o until_o fall_v back_o 8_o i_o say_v unto_o he_o lord_z i_o understand_v not_o what_o be_v unto_o death_n and_o what_o unto_o fall_v back_o hear_v quoth_v he_o whatever_o sheep_n thou_o see_v very_o joyous_a and_o leap_a be_v they_o who_o have_v for_o ever_o depart_v from_o god_n and_o have_v give_v up_o themselves_o to_o the_o desire_n of_o this_o world_n to_o they_o therefore_o there_o be_v not_o a_o return_v by_o repentance_n to_o life_n because_o they_o have_v add_v certain_a thing_n to_o their_o other_o

but_o feed_v in_o one_o place_n these_o be_v they_o who_o have_v indeed_o deliver_v themselves_o to_o delight_n and_o pleasure_n but_o have_v speak_v nothing_o heinous_a against_o the_o lord_n therefore_o these_o have_v fall_v away_o from_o the_o truth_n and_o therefore_o they_o have_v as_o yet_o a_o hope_n reserve_v of_o life_n in_o repentance_n for_o defection_n have_v some_o hope_n of_o
involve_v in_o the_o employment_n and_o riches_n of_o the_o heathen_a man_n and_o another_o be_v a_o lie_a prophet_n who_o destroy_v the_o sense_n of_o the_o servant_n of_o god_n but_o not_o of_o these_o doubtful_a one_o who_o trust_v in_o the_o lord_n full_o 3_o therefore_o these_o doubtful_a one_o come_v as_o to_o a_o divine_a and_o ask_v he_o what_o be_v about_o to_o befall_v they_o and_o that_o lie_a prophet_n have_v none_o of_o the_o power_n of_o the_o divine_a spirit_n in_o he_o speak_v to_o they_o according_a to_o their_o ask_n and_o fill_v their_o soul_n with_o promise_n even_o as_o they_o will_v but_o that_o prophet_n be_v empty_a and_o answer_v empty_a thing_n to_o the_o empty_a for_o whatsoever_o be_v ask_v he_o of_o vain_a man_n he_o will_v answer_v they_o vain_a thing_n 4_o but_o some_o word_n he_o speak_v true_a for_o the_o devil_n fill_v he_o with_o his_o spirit_n that_o he_o may_v cast_v down_o some_o of_o the_o just_a whosoever_o therefore_o be_v strong_a in_o the_o faith_n of_o the_o lord_n and_o be_v clothe_v with_o the_o truth_n to_o such_o spirit_n they_o be_v not_o join_v but_o depart_v from_o they_o but_o as_o many_o as_o be_v doubtful_a and_o thenceforth_o act_v repentance_n they_o consult_v even_o as_o the_o heathen_n and_o heap_v up_o very_o great_a sin_n to_o themselves_o serve_v idol_n 5_o whosoever_o therefore_o be_v such_o they_o ask_v for_o any_o business_n they_o worship_v image_n and_o be_v fool_n and_o empty_a from_o the_o truth_n for_o every_o spirit_n give_v of_o god_n be_v not_o ask_v but_o have_v the_o virtue_n of_o the_o divinity_n from_o itself_o speak_v all_o thing_n because_o it_o be_v from_o above_o from_o the_o power_n of_o the_o divine_a spirit_n but_o whoso_o be_v ask_v speak_v according_a to_o the_o desire_n and_o of_o many_o other_o thing_n of_o this_o world_n they_o of_o this_o sort_n understand_v not_o the_o question_n of_o the_o divinity_n for_o they_o be_v darken_v by_o these_o business_n and_o be_v corrupt_v and_o break_v 6_o as_o good_a vine_n that_o be_v neglect_v by_o weed_n and_o thorn_n be_v press_v and_o kill_v so_o also_o the_o man_n who_o have_v credit_v such_o they_o have_v fall_v into_o many_o business_n and_o action_n and_o be_v make_v empty_a from_o their_o feel_n and_o understand_v nothing_o at_o all_o think_v about_o riches_n but_o if_o at_o any_o time_n they_o shall_v hear_v of_o the_o lord_n their_o sense_n be_v in_o their_o business_n but_o they_o that_o have_v the_o fear_n of_o the_o lord_n and_o search_v out_o from_o god_n the_o truth_n they_o have_v every_o thought_n unto_o the_o lord_n all_o thing_n that_o be_v speak_v to_o they_o they_o perceive_v because_o they_o have_v the_o fear_n of_o the_o lord_n in_o they_o for_o where_o the_o spirit_z of_o the_o lord_z in_o habit_v there_o also_o be_v adjoin_v much_o feel_n adjoyn_v thyself_o therefore_o to_o the_o lord_n and_o thou_o shall_v understand_v and_o perceive_v all_o thing_n 7_o hear_v now_o o_o unwise_a after_o what_o manner_n sadness_n vex_v the_o holy_a spirit_n and_o how_o it_o make_v it_o whole_a when_o a_o doubtful_a one_o shall_v fall_v into_o any_o business_n and_o it_o do_v not_o succeed_v to_o he_o because_o of_o dubitation_n this_o sorrow_n enter_v into_o the_o man_n and_o make_v sad_a the_o holy_a spirit_n and_o vex_v it_o after_o that_o again_o when_o wrath_n shall_v happen_v to_o a_o man_n for_o any_o business_n he_o be_v vehement_o enrage_v and_o this_o wrath_n enter_v in_o into_o the_o inward_a part_n of_o he_o that_o be_v angry_a and_o he_o be_v vex_v in_o his_o business_n which_o he_o do_v and_o after_o that_o repent_v he_o that_o he_o have_v do_v evil_o 8_o therefore_o both_o these_o thing_n hurt_v the_o holy_a spirit_n doubt_v and_o sadness_n doubt_v because_o his_o action_n succeed_v not_o and_o sadness_n because_o he_o cause_v wrath_n to_o his_o spirit_n remove_v sorrow_n therefore_o from_o thou_o and_o do_v not_o thou_o offend_v the_o holy_a spirit_n which_o dwele_v in_o thou_o lest_o it_o entreat_v the_o lord_n and_o depart_v from_o thou_o for_o the_o spirit_n of_o the_o lord_n which_o be_v give_v into_o the_o flesh_n endure_v not_o sadness_n 9_o clothe_v thou_o therefore_o with_o chearfulnesse_n which_o always_o have_v favour_n with_o the_o lord_n and_o thou_o shall_v be_v joyful_a in_o it_o for_o every_o cheerful_a man_n work_v well_o and_o savour_v good_a thing_n and_o despise_v unrighteousness_n but_o a_o sorrowful_a man_n do_v evil_o because_o he_o make_v sad_a the_o holy_a spirit_n which_o be_v give_v to_o the_o cheerful_a man_n and_o again_o he_o do_v evil_a in_o that_o the_o sorrowful_a man_n entreat_v the_o lord_n and_o do_v not_o before_o make_v confession_n and_o he_o obtain_v not_o of_o god_n what_o he_o ask_v for_o always_o the_o prayer_n of_o the_o sorrowful_a man_n have_v not_o the_o force_n that_o it_o may_v approach_v the_o altar_n of_o god_n 10_o and_o i_o say_v to_o he_o lord_z why_o have_v not_o the_o prayer_n of_o the_o sorrowful_a man_n the_o power_n to_o ascend_v to_o the_o altar_n of_o the_o lord_n because_o heaviness_n sit_v in_o his_o heart_n therefore_o when_o the_o prayer_n of_o a_o man_n shall_v be_v mix_v with_o sorrow_n it_o will_v not_o suffer_v the_o prayer_n to_o ascend_v pure_a to_o the_o altar_n of_o god_n for_o as_o wine_n mix_v with_o vinegar_n have_v not_o the_o same_o sweetness_n so_o also_o heaviness_n mix_v with_o the_o holy_a spirit_n have_v not_o the_o same_o prayer_n clean_o therefore_o cleanse_v thou_o from_o evil_a sadness_n and_o thou_o shall_v live_v to_o god_n and_o they_o shall_v all_o live_v to_o god_n who_o shall_v cast_v away_o from_o themselves_o sadness_n and_o shall_v put_v on_o chearfulnesse_n command_v xi_o 1_o he_o show_v

&_o about_o it_o twelve_o mountain_n of_o one_o figure_n and_o of_o another_o of_o who_o the_o first_o be_v black_a as_o soot_n the_o second_o bear_v without_o herb_n the_o three_o full_a of_o thorn_n

some_o great_a but_o in_o these_o cleft_n there_o be_v herb_n not_o very_o sprightly_a indeed_o but_o they_o seem_v as_o if_o flag_a but_o the_o seven_o mountain_n have_v delectable_a herb_n and_o be_v all_o fertile_a and_o every_o kind_n of_o cattle_n and_o fowl_n of_o heaven_n do_v take_v food_n thereof_o and_o how_o much_o they_o do_v feed_v of_o it_o by_o so_o much_o the_o more_o joyous_a do_v the_o herb_n grow_v up_o 5_o the_o eight_o mountain_n be_v fill_v with_o fountain_n and_o out_o of_o these_o fountain_n be_v water_v the_o whole_a kind_n of_o the_o creature_n of_o god_n the_o

and_o these_o tree_n be_v see_v lade_v with_o divers_a fruit_n so_o that_o whosoever_o shall_v see_v will_v desire_v to_o eat_v of_o the_o fruit_n of_o they_o the_o twelve_o mountain_n be_v all_o

mighty_a rock_n which_o have_v arisen_a from_o out_o the_o field_n itself_o and_o that_o rock_n be_v high_a than_o these_o mountain_n and_o four_o corner_a so_o that_o it_o can_v sustain_v the_o

that_o they_o two_o and_o two_o be_v clothe_v with_o linen_n coat_n and_o decent_o gird_v about_o outward_o in_o their_o right_a arm_n as_o if_o about_o to_o lighten_v some_o burden_n so_o be_v they_o

and_o again_o i_o admire_v because_o of_o these_o virgin_n that_o they_o be_v so_o comely_a and_o delicate_a and_o shall_v stand_v so_o constant_o and_o strong_o as_o if_o about_o to_o support_v the_o
