convenient_a therefore_o often_o to_o communicate_v spirit_n yea_o rather_o the_o affliction_n of_o this_o world_n and_o this_o wretched_a place_n of_o exile_n aught_o to_o drive_v we_o to_o

spirit_n i_o pray_v when_o thou_o come_v to_o thy_o ordinary_a prayer_n thou_o go_v to_o the_o church_n do_v thou_o perceive_v thou_o be_v call_v of_o god_n mund._o no._n spirit_n why_o then_o do_v thou_o these_o thing_n mun._n for_o that_o they_o seem_v to_o i_o good_a thing_n and_o be_v lay_v down_o as_o part_n of_o god_n worship_n spirit_n but_o the_o holy_a communion_n without_o question_n be_v better_a than_o all_o and_o more_o commend_v and_o be_v so_o profitable_a as_o it_o be_v call_v of_o the_o church_n the_o pledge_n of_o future_a glory_n mund._o howsoever_o the_o matter_n be_v to_o say_v truth_n i_o dare_v not_o come_v often_o to_o this_o heavenly_a table_n by_o reason_n of_o my_o manifold_a imperfection_n that_o i_o often_o fall_v into_o spirit_n it_o have_v be_v answer_v to_o this_o before_o either_o thou_o desire_v to_o be_v deliver_v from_o these_o evil_n or_o not_o if_o thou_o desire_v to_o be_v rid_v of_o they_o this_o most_o holy_a sacrament_n receive_v with_o

spiritual_a meat_n of_o carnal_a have_v be_v make_v spiritual_a munda_n i_o yield_v to_o thy_o reason_n and_o will_v glad_o communicate_v but_o i_o feel_v no_o devotion_n spir._n perchance_o thou_o think_v thou_o have_v no_o devotion_n unless_o thou_o shed_v forth_o tear_n that_o be_v not_o absolute_o necessary_a neither_o in_o these_o consist_v all_o devotion_n the_o tear_n of_o the_o heart_n may_v suffice_v that_o be_v sorrow_n for_o thy_o sin_n past_a and_o a_o purpose_n to_o prevent_v those_o to_o come_v moreover_o he_o be_v call_v devout_a which_o in_o all_o thing_n conform_v himself_o to_o god_n will_v wherefore_o i_o will_v not_o that_o thou_o shall_v therefore_o abstain_v because_o tear_n and_o sigh_n be_v want_v for_o these_o be_v not_o always_o necessary_a god_n give_v they_o to_o who_o he_o please_v mund._o to_o say_v what_o i_o think_v and_o that_o i_o may_v confess_v a_o truth_n thou_o have_v plain_o persuade_v i_o that_o it_o be_v better_a to_o communicate_v often_o

of_o the_o devil_n who_o that_o he_o may_v spoil_v thou_o of_o the_o fruit_n of_o this_o divine_a sacrament_n cause_v that_o repentance_n seem_v troublesome_a unto_o thou_o and_o the_o whole_a

to_o dispatch_v earthly_a affair_n in_o good_a order_n when_o the_o son_n of_o god_n stand_v and_o knock_v at_o the_o door_n of_o thy_o hart_n open_a unto_o he_o let_v he_o not_o knock_v in_o vain_a to_o conclude_v remember_v that_o the_o kingdom_n of_o heaven_n suffer_v violence_n when_o we_o see_v we_o must_v labour_v to_o attain_v the_o same_o mund_o it_o be_v even_o so_o i_o must_v needs_o
