with_o these_o good_a thing_n give_v moreover_o riches_n abundance_n of_o all_o thing_n if_o not_o to_o all_o sure_o to_o many_o and_o to_o they_o especial_o that_o be_v weak_a to_o bear_v evil_n for_o as_o i_o have_v say_v before_o upon_o who_o he_o bestow_v less_o riches_n or_o gift_n of_o the_o body_n upon_o they_o he_o bestow_v more_o gift_n of_o the_o mind_n that_o all_o thing_n may_v be_v equal_a &_o he_o a_o just_a judge_n of_o all_o for_o abundance_n of_o riches_n do_v not_o so_o much_o comfort_n as_o a_o joyful_a mind_n moreover_o he_o give_v unto_o some_o goodly_a child_n great_a pleasure_n power_n rule_n honour_n fame_n glory_n favour_n etc_n etc_n which_o if_o he_o permit_v to_o enjoy_v a_o long_a time_n yea_o but_o a_o small_a time_n they_o will_v easy_o admonish_v what_o be_v to_o be_v do_v in_o a_o little_a evil_n but_o the_o gift_n of_o the_o mind_n be_v more_o excellent_a than_o all_o these_o as_o wit_n knowledge_n mind_n judgement_n eloquence_n wisdom_n &_o as_o in_o the_o other_o so_o in_o bestow_v of_o these_o he_o use_v a_o mean_a and_o equality_n so_o that_o upon_o who_o he_o have_v bestow_v more_o of_o these_o good_a thing_n he_o have_v not_o therefore_o prefer_v they_o before_o other_o who_o in_o steed_n of_o these_o he_o have_v give_v more_o peace_n or_o pleasure_n of_o the_o mind_n now_o in_o all_o these_o we_o must_v with_o thankfulness_n acknowledge_v the_o large_a liberality_n and_o bountifulness_n of_o god_n &_o comfort_v our_o infirmity_n that_o in_o the_o multitude_n &_o plenty_n of_o good_a thing_n we_o do_v not_o marvel_a if_o some_o sharpness_n be_v mingle_v therewith_o see_v that_o to_o delicate_a person_n neither_o rostedmeate_n be_v like_v without_o sauce_n neither_o almost_o any_o other_o meat_n which_o either_o have_v not_o some_o sharp_a taste_n of_o itself_o or_o be_v temper_v with_o some_o thing_n that_o have_v a_o sharp_a taste_n so_o untolerable_a a_o thing_n be_v continual_a and_o only_a sweetness_n that_o one_o say_v right_o all_o pleasure_n by_o continuance_n make_v itself_o loathsome_a and_o a_o other_o say_v pleasure_n itself_o at_o the_o last_o be_v a_o labour_n even_o because_o this_o life_n be_v more_o weak_a then_o that_o it_o be_v able_a without_o the_o temperature_n of_o evil_n to_o enjoy_v only_o good_a thing_n by_o reason_n of_o the_o overmuch_o abundance_n of_o good_a thing_n whereupon_o have_v rise_v this_o proverb_n the_o bone_n must_v be_v strong_a which_o shall_v bear_v good_a day_n which_o proverb_n i_o oftentimes_o consider_v do_v great_o marvel_v what_o a_o marvellous_a and_o true_a meaning_n it_o have_v that_o man_n mind_n be_v contrary_a to_o themselves_o who_o seek_v no_o other_o but_o good_a day_n which_o notwithstanding_o when_o they_o have_v obtain_v they_o can_v worse_o away_o with_o they_o then_o with_o evil_n now_o what_o other_o thing_n be_v we_o teach_v hereby_o but_o that_o even_o in_o the_o very_a enemy_n of_o the_o cross_n the_o cross_n be_v marvellous_a so_o that_o by_o the_o mean_n thereof_o all_o aught_o to_o be_v temper_v and_o sanctify_v least_o they_o perish_v as_o flesh_n must_v be_v season_v with_o salt_n lest_o it_o stink_v and_o corrupt_v why_o then_o do_v we_o not_o most_o willing_o receive_v this_o temperature_n send_v of_o god_n which_o if_o he_o shall_v not_o send_v our_o life_n which_o be_v not_o able_a continual_o to_o suffer_v pleasure_n &_o good_a thing_n will_v procure_v it_o of_o it_o own_o accord_n we_o see_v therefore_o how_o true_o the_o wise_a man_n say_v of_o god_n he_o reach_v from_o one_o end_n to_o a_o other_o mighty_o and_o love_o do_v he_o order_v all_o thing_n if_o we_o thorough_o consider_v these_o thing_n that_o also_o will_v appear_v to_o be_v true_a which_o moses_n say_v deut._n 32_o he_o have_v bear_v he_o on_o his_o shoulder_n he_o have_v carry_v he_o about_o and_o keep_v he_o as_o the_o apple_n of_o his_o eye_n hereby_o we_o may_v stop_v the_o mouth_n of_o they_o which_o unthankful_o babble_v that_o there_o be_v more_o evil_a than_o good_a thing_n in_o this_o life_n when_o as_o there_o be_v not_o want_v infinite_a good_a thing_n and_o sweet_a commodity_n but_o they_o be_v want_v which_o shall_v see_v &_o acknowledge_v they_o with_o he_o that_o say_v the_o earth_n be_v full_a of_o the_o goodness_n of_o the_o lord_n and_o again_o the_o earth_n be_v full_a of_o his_o praise_n and_o psal._n 103_o the_o earth_n be_v full_a of_o thy_o riches_n thou_o have_v make_v i_o glad_a by_o thy_o work_n hereupon_o we_o daily_o singe_v heaven_n and_o earth_n be_v

for_o as_o we_o have_v say_v in_o the_o first_o consideration_n of_o evil_n that_o the_o evil_n of_o every_o one_o be_v so_o great_a as_o be_v his_o opinion_n &_o knowledge_n of_o they_o so_o also_o good_a thing_n although_o they_o come_v unto_o we_o abundant_o on_o every_o side_n yet_o be_v they_o only_o so_o great_a as_o they_o be_v esteem_v for_o all_o thing_n that_o god_n have_v make_v be_v

we_o may_v in_o job_n see_v a_o most_o goodly_a &_o singular_a example_n hand_n who_o all_o his_o good_n be_v take_v away_o say_v shall_v we_o receive_v good_a at_o the_o hand_n of_o god_n &_o not_o receive_v evil_a a_o very_a golden_a say_n &_o a_o mighty_a comfort_n in_o tentation_n for_o he_o do_v not_o only_o suffer_v himself_o but_o be_v tempt_v of_o his_o own_o wife_n to_o impatiency_n who_o say_v unto_o he_o do_v thou_o continue_v yet_o in_o thy_o perfectness_n curse_o god_n &_o die_v as_o if_o she_o shall_v say_v it_o be_v manifest_a that_o he_o be_v not_o god_n who_o have_v so_o
