for_o the_o better_a understanding_n hereof_o it_o shall_v not_o be_v amiss_o to_o show_v what_o it_o be_v to_o love_v to_o love_n be_v nothing_o else_o but_o to_o wish_v well_o to_o every_o body_n as_o when_o i_o love_v a_o man_n i_o wish_v as_o well_o to_o he_o as_o to_o himself_o now_o there_o be_v two_o manner_n of_o love_n one_o be_v call_v a_o covetous_a love_n as_o when_o a_o man_n love_v

our_o proper_a profit_n or_o honour_n thou_o ought_v not_o to_o love_v god_n with_o a_o covetous_a love_n that_o be_v to_o say_v thou_o must_v not_o love_n god_n only_o because_o he_o give_v thou_o all_o thing_n profitable_a for_o thou_o for_o in_o so_o do_v thou_o love_v thyself_o better_a then_o thou_o love_v god_n if_o thou_o love_v god_n right_o he_o will_v reward_v thou_o great_o but_o this_o love_n must_v be_v single_a and_o it_o must_v be_v pure_a and_o not_o depend_v upon_o a_o other_o thing_n for_o who_o so_o love_v god_n for_o gain_n love_v he_o but_o as_o his_o horse_n in_o who_o he_o delyghte_v because_o he_o serve_v his_o turn_n god_n ought_v to_o be_v love_v lovinglye_o without_o respect_n of_o particular_a profit_n but_o thou_o may_v ask_v i_o a_o question_n may_v i_o not_o love_n god_n to_o this_o end_n and_o under_o this_o condition_n that_o he_o may_v give_v i_o heaven_n which_o be_v the_o sovereign_a good_a and_o principall_a thing_n that_o man_n can_v
