the_o octave_n of_o easter_n but_o of_o these_o commandment_n i_o will_v say_v no_o more_o now_o partly_o because_o they_o be_v easy_a partly_o for_o that_o of_o the_o mass_n of_o confession_n and_o communicate_v as_o also_o of_o fast_v we_o shall_v speak_v hereafter_o when_o we_o shall_v declare_v the_o holy_a sacrament_n of_o the_o church_n cap._n viii_o the_o declaration_n of_o the_o evangelicall_a counsel_n s_o i_o desire_v to_o know_v if_o beside_o the_o commandment_n of_o our_o lord_n there_o be_v any_o counsel_n also_o of_o his_o to_o live_v more_o perfect_o m_o there_o be_v many_o most_o holy_a counsel_n and_o most_o profitable_a to_o observe_v the_o commandment_n with_o more_o perfection_n but_o there_o be_v three_o most_o principal_a voluntary_a poverty_n chastity_n and_o obedience_n s_o wherein_o consist_v the_o counsel_n of_o poverty_n m_o in_o not_o have_v any_o thing_n proper_a all_o his_o good_n be_v give_v to_o the_o poor_a or_o put_v into_o the_o common_a which_o likewise_o have_v give_v all_o to_o the_o poor_a and_o this_o counsel_n christ_n teach_v not_o only_o in_o word_n but_o also_o by_o his_o example_n and_o after_o christ_n the_o holy_a apostle_n follow_v it_o as_o also_o all_o the_o first_o christian_n who_o dwell_v in_o jerusalem_n in_o the_o time_n of_o the_o primative_a church_n and_o final_o all_o religious_a person_n make_v vow_n to_o observe_v this_o holy_a counsel_n of_o voluntary_a poverty_n s_o wherein_o consist_v the_o counsel_n of_o chastity_n m_o in_o a_o resolution_n to_o be_v perpetual_o chaste_a not_o only_o abstayn_v from_o all_o sort_n of_o carnal_a sin_n but_o also_o from_o marriage_n and_o this_o counsel_n also_o our_o lord_n teach_v by_o word_n and_o example_n and_o our_o lady_n likewise_o observe_v the_o same_o s._n john_n baptist_n all_o the_o apostle_n after_o they_o be_v call_v by_o christ_n to_o the_o apostleship_n and_o all_o religious_a person_n make_v particular_a vow_n hereof_o as_o also_o all_o ecclesiastical_a man_n that_o take_v holy_a order_n s_o where_o in_o consist_v the_o counsel_n of_o obedience_n m_o in_o renounce_v our_o proper_a judgement_n and_o proper_a will_n which_o in_o the_o holy_a gospel_n be_v call_v deny_v of_o a_o man_n self_n and_o to_o subject_v himself_o to_o the_o will_n of_o his_o superior_a in_o all_o thing_n that_o be_v not_o against_o god_n and_o this_o counsel_n likewise_o the_o saviour_n of_o the_o world_n teach_v not_o only_o in_o word_n but_o also_o by_o his_o example_n obey_v in_o all_o thing_n his_o eternal_a father_n and_o submit_v himself_o when_o he_o be_v a_o child_n to_o his_o mother_n and_o to_o s._n joseph_n his_o suppose_a father_n the_o spouse_n of_o our_o b._n lady_n albeit_o indeed_o he_o be_v not_o his_o father_n be_v bear_v of_o a_o mother_n who_o be_v always_o a_o virgin_n and_o this_o be_v the_o three_o counsel_n to_o the_o which_o all_o religious_a person_n bind_v themselves_o by_o vow_n s_o wherefore_o be_v there_o three_o principal_a counsel_n and_o no_o more_o m_o because_o these_o principal_a counsel_n serve_v to_o take_v away_o the_o impediment_n of_o perfection_n that_o consist_v in_o charity_n for_o the_o impediment_n be_v three_o to_o wit_n the_o love_n of_o good_n which_o be_v take_v away_o by_o poverty_n the_o love_n of_o carnal_a pleasure_n which_o be_v take_v away_o by_o chastity_n &_o the_o love_n of_o honour_n and_o power_n which_o be_v take_v away_o by_o obedience_n moreover_o because_o a_o man_n have_v but_o three_o sort_n of_o good_n to_o wit_n a_o soul_n a_o body_n and_o his_o exterior_a wealth_n therefore_o give_v the_o exterior_a good_n to_o god_n by_o poverty_n his_o body_n by_o chastity_n and_o his_o soul_n by_o obedience_n he_o make_v a_o sacrifice_n unto_o god_n of_o all_o that_o he_o have_v and_o so_o dispose_v himself_o to_o perfection_n of_o charity_n in_o the_o best_a manner_n that_o in_o this_o life_n be_v possible_a chap._n ix_o the_o declaration_n of_o the_o sacrament_n of_o holy_a church_n s_o i_o have_v learn_v through_o the_o grace_n of_o our_o lord_n the_o three_o principal_a part_n of_o christian_a doctrine_n it_o remain_v that_o you_o declare_v unto_o i_o the_o four_o which_o if_o i_o well_o remember_v contain_v the_o seven_o sacrament_n of_o the_o church_n m_o this_o part_n of_o doctrine_n be_v also_o very_o profitable_a &_o therefore_o it_o be_v conveent_fw-mi that_o you_o learn_v it_o with_o great_a diligence_n you_o must_v then_o know_v that_o in_o the_o holy_a church_n there_o be_v a_o great_a treasure_n to_o wit_v these_o holy_a sacrament_n by_o mean_n whereof_o we_o receive_v the_o grace_n of_o god_n we_o keep_v it_o we_o increase_v it_o and_o when_o by_o our_o default_n we_o lose_v it_o we_o may_v recover_v it_o again_o i_o will_v therefore_o declare_v unto_o you_o what_o a_o sacrament_n be_v how_o many_o sacrament_n there_o be_v by_o who_o they_o be_v institute_v and_o some_o other_o few_o thing_n and_o after_o we_o will_v come_v to_o the_o declaration_n of_o every_o one_o of_o they_o in_o particular_a s._n begin_v then_o i_o pray_v you_o to_o declare_v what_o a_o sacrament_n be_v which_o i_o much_o desire_v to_o understand_v m._n a_o sacrament_n be_v a_o holy_a mystery_n by_o which_o god_n bestow_v his_o grace_n and_o with_o all_o it_o represent_v exterior_o the_o invisible_a effect_n which_o grace_n work_v in_o our_o soul_n for_o if_o we_o be_v spirit_n without_o body_n as_o the_o angel_n be_v god_n will_v give_v we_o his_o grace_n spiritual_o but_o because_o we_o be_v compose_v of_o a_o soul_n and_o a_o body_n therefore_o our_o lord_n condescend_v to_o our_o nature_n give_v we_o his_o grace_n by_o mean_n of_o certain_a corporal_a action_n which_o as_o i_o have_v say_v together_o with_o certain_a exterior_a sign_n declare_v to_o we_o the_o inward_a effect_n of_o grace_n as_o for_o example_n holy_a baptism_n which_o be_v one_o of_o the_o sacrament_n be_v do_v by_o wash_v the_o body_n with_o water_n and_o therewith_o call_v upon_o the_o most_o holy_a trinity_n by_o mean_n of_o which_o ceremonious_a wash_n god_n give_v his_o grace_n &_o put_v it_o in_o the_o soul_n of_o he_o that_o be_v baptize_v and_o it_o instruct_v we_o that_o as_o that_o water_n wash_v the_o body_n so_o grace_n wash_v the_o soul_n &_o cleanse_v it_o from_o all_o sin_n s_o if_o i_o have_v well_o understand_v three_o condition_n be_v requisite_a to_o the_o nature_n of_o a_o sacrament_n first_o that_o it_o be_v a_o ceremony_n or_o as_o we_o will_v say_v a_o exterior_a action_n the_o second_o that_o god_n by_o it_o give_v his_o grace_n the_o three_o that_o the_o same_o ceremony_n have_v a_o similitude_n with_o the_o effect_n of_o grace_n and_o so_o represent_v and_o signify_v it_o exterior_o m_o you_o have_v understand_v it_o very_o well_o now_o you_o have_v to_o know_v further_o that_o these_o sacrament_n be_v in_o all_o seven_o &_o be_v call_v baptism_n confirmation_n or_o chrism_n eucharist_n penance_n extreme_a unction_n order_n and_o matrimony_n the_o reason_n wherefore_o they_o be_v seven_o be_v this_o for_o that_o god_n will_v proceed_v in_o give_v we_o spiritual_a life_n as_o he_o use_v to_o proceed_v in_o give_v we_o our_o corporal_a life_n touch_v corporal_a life_n first_o be_v needful_a to_o be_v bear_v second_o be_v
