13._o god_n of_o hope_n replenish_v you_o with_o all_o joy_n and_o peace_n in_o believe_v that_o you_o may_v abound_v in_o hope_n in_o the_o psalm_n it_o be_v say_v they_o that_o 124._o ps_n 124._o

whereby_o be_v manifest_a that_o without_o the_o virtue_n of_o hope_n no_o man_n can_v be_v happy_a or_o save_v but_o as_o we_o say_v before_o of_o only_a faith_n that_o faith_n without_o other_o

also_o it_o be_v manifest_a that_o only_o hope_v without_o other_o virtue_n be_v a_o vain_a and_o dead_a hope_n without_o any_o true_a content_a in_o this_o life_n or_o in_o all_o eternity_n as_o be_v manifest_v first_o by_o reason_n because_o hope_n end_v with_o death_n so_o if_o the_o content_a and_o happiness_n of_o man_n shall_v consist_v in_o only_a hope_n there_o shall_v be_v no_o content_a in_o the_o other_o life_n second_o we_o see_v some_o few_o except_v who_o fall_v into_o utter_a despair_n that_o all_o man_n of_o all_o sect_n and_o sort_n and_o how_o wicked_a soever_o hope_v for_o happiness_n and_o content_a so_o if_o hope_n without_o the_o assistance_n of_o other_o virtue_n be_v sufficient_a to_o happiness_n man_n may_v be_v happy_a and_o wretched_a both_o together_o which_o be_v contrary_a to_o experience_n three_o to_o hope_v for_o happiness_n be_v not_o to_o be_v happy_a since_o none_o hope_v for_o that_o he_o have_v but_o enjoy_v whereby_o be_v manifest_a that_o only_a hope_n be_v not_o sufficient_a to_o be_v happy_a again_o the_o scripture_n say_v not_o every_o one_o that_o say_v lord_n 21._o mat._n 7._o 21._o lord_n shall_v enter_v into_o the_o kingdom_n
