unto_o you_o a_o law_n which_o it_o become_v you_o to_o prefer_v before_o all_o law_n and_o that_o worthilye_n namely_o that_o we_o shall_v hold_v mutual_a humanity_n among_o ourselves_o for_o he_o that_o have_v not_o this_o have_v nothing_o on_o the_o contrary_a side_n he_o say_v the_o law_n of_o christ_n be_v fulfil_v whereas_o every_o one_o ease_v his_o brother_n with_o mercy_n whereby_o he_o show_v that_o all_o thing_n be_v superfluous_a which_o belong_v not_o to_o charity_n for_o the_o composition_n of_o the_o greek_a word_n express_v a_o sound_n and_o firm_a fulfil_n but_o because_o no_o man_n perform_v in_o all_o respect_n that_o which_o paul_n require_v therefore_o we_o be_v far_o off_o all_o of_o we_o from_o perfection_n and_o he_o that_o be_v least_o of_o all_o off_o in_o

of_o no_o account_n and_o yet_o puff_v up_o with_o a_o foolish_a persuasion_n of_o themselves_o attribute_v any_o thing_n to_o himself_o but_o the_o sentence_n be_v more_o general_a and_o therefore_o may_v thus_o be_v resolve_v because_o all_o man_n be_v nothing_o he_o that_o will_v seem_v to_o be_v any_o thing_n and_o persuade_v himself_o that_o he_o be_v somebodye_n he_o deceave_v himself_o first_o therefore_o he_o pronounce_v we_o to_o be_v nothing_o whereby_o he_o mean_v that_o we_o have_v nothing_o our_o own_o of_o which_o we_o may_v boast_v but_o to_o be_v void_a of_o all_o goodness_n that_o all_o our_o boast_n may_v be_v mere_a vanity_n secondely_n he_o gather_v thereof_o that_o they_o deceive_v themselves_o who_o challenge_v any_o thing_n unto_o themselves_o and_o it_o be_v a_o very_a absurd_a thing_n whereas_o we_o take_v nothing_o more_o in_o dogen_fw-mi than_o to_o be_v mock_v of_o other_o that_o willing_o we_o ourselves_o will_v mock_v ourselves_o the_o think_v

have_v without_o comparison_n some_o think_v it_o be_v a_o ironia_fw-la as_o though_o paul_n shall_v say_v thou_o flatter_v thyself_o because_o of_o other_o man_n fault_n but_o if_o thou_o look_v

of_o praise_n afterward_o they_o expound_v that_o which_o follow_v every_o man_n shall_v carry_v his_o own_o burden_n as_o thus_o be_v accustom_v to_o bear_v etc._n etc._n but_o the_o sense_n hang_v

know_v why_o the_o ironia_fw-la like_v they_o namely_o because_o the_o apostle_n in_o the_o next_o sentence_n have_v bring_v to_o nothing_o all_o the_o glory_n of_o man_n but_o paul_n in_o this_o
