more_o and_o i_o have_v do_v 1._o the_o first_o concern_v what_o i_o have_v say_v i_o have_v speak_v much_o as_o you_o have_v hear_v my_o text_n natural_o and_o direct_o lead_v i_o thereunto_o of_o the_o true_a misery_n and_o spiritual_a madness_n of_o all_o great_a man_n in_o learning_n wealth_n nobility_n wisdom_n according_a to_o the_o flesh_n lest_o any_o be_v unjust_o angry_a and_o mistake_v or_o causses_o grumble_v and_o gainsay_v let_v i_o take_v up_o the_o word_n of_o that_o ancient_a holy_a father_n salvianus_n about_o a_o thousand_o year_n ago_o in_o the_o like_a case_n he_o have_v impartial_o discover_v the_o horrible_a impiety_n of_o the_o noble_a and_o rich_a man_n in_o those_o corrupt_a time_n tell_v they_o by_o the_o way_n and_o it_o be_v my_o just_a apology_n at_o this_o time_n i_o do_v not_o say_v he_o speak_v thus_o of_o any_o but_o only_o such_o as_o know_v these_o thing_n to_o be_v in_o themselves_o if_o their_o conscience_n be_v free_a nothing_o that_o i_o say_v tend_v to_o their_o disparagement_n and_o disgrace_n but_o if_o they_o know_v themselves_o to_o be_v guilty_a let_v they_o know_v also_o that_o they_o be_v not_o my_o word_n but_o their_o own_o conscience_n which_o vex_v they_o and_o in_o another_o place_n thus_o sith_o i_o speak_v not_o these_o thing_n of_o all_o but_o those_o who_o be_v such_o none_o of_o you_o ought_v to_o be_v angry_a at_o all_o which_o find_v not_o himself_o to_o be_v obnoxious_a lest_o thereby_o he_o make_v himself_o seem_v and_o be_v suspect_v to_o be_v of_o the_o number_n of_o those_o that_o be_v naught_o rather_o let_v so_o many_o as_o be_v guiltless_a and_o true_o noble_a abhor_v such_o unworthy_a course_n be_v angry_a with_o they_o who_o disgrace_n the_o name_n of_o nobility_n by_o their_o base_a and_o wicked_a behaviour_n because_o although_o other_o be_v much_o worse_o and_o scandalize_v by_o they_o yet_o especial_o they_o bring_v a_o great_a deal_n of_o shame_n and_o dishonour_n upon_o those_o who_o be_v of_o the_o same_o noble_a rank_n take_v notice_n by_o the_o way_n that_o by_o the_o father_n word_n those_o man_n be_v much_o too_o blame_v who_o go_v about_o to_o daub_v over_o the_o disorder_n and_o smother_v up_o the_o scandalous_a exorbitancy_n of_o delinquent_n in_o their_o own_o profession_n or_o to_o be_v concurrent_n for_o their_o deliverance_n from_o deserve_a shame_n and_o punishment_n to_o give_v instance_n in_o the_o high_a calling_n a_o minister_n which_o fall_v to_o drunkenness_n and_o ale-house-haunting_a shall_v rather_o be_v public_o shame_v and_o censure_v than_o a_o fellow_n of_o a_o inferior_a call_n we_o do_v not_o honour_v the_o ministry_n by_o have_v our_o hand_n in_o help_v out_o such_o but_o by_o disclaim_v and_o not_o own_v they_o well_o may_v we_o by_o so_o meddle_v incur_v suspicion_n of_o obnoxiousnesse_n but_o never_o bring_v credit_n to_o our_o so_o holy_a a_o call_n i_o know_v a_o knight_n do_v penance_n at_o pauls-crosse_n but_o at_o the_o same_o time_n i_o hear_v that_o many_o of_o his_o rank_n in_o the_o city_n labour_v to_o have_v he_o dis-knighted_n first_o before_o he_o so_o public_o disgrace_v their_o order_n i_o think_v all_o well-minded_a shall_v be_v so_o mind_v 2._o the_o other_o be_v to_o my_o lord_n the_o judge_n my_o reverend_a and_o noble_a lord_n give_v i_o leave_v to_o clothe_v the_o thought_n of_o the_o country_n in_o a_o word_n or_o two_o we_o much_o rejoice_v in_o you_o and_o bless_v god_n for_o you_o as_o man_n of_o singular_a and_o know_a integrity_n special_a friend_n

can_v help_v we_o that_o god_n people_n may_v not_o perish_v for_o want_v of_o bread_n be_v it_o not_o a_o pitiful_a thing_n that_o in_o such_o a_o dear_a year_n special_o it_o shall_v be_v almost_o
