a_o stiff_a and_o effectual_a purpose_n to_o put_v in_o execution_n all_o those_o mean_n which_o be_v either_o necessary_a or_o but_o even_o convenient_a for_o the_o obtain_v of_o this_o kingdom_n of_o heaven_n now_o for_o the_o enter_v into_o heaven_n it_o be_v necessary_a to_o cast_v sin_n away_o for_o sin_n give_v impediment_n to_o all_o approach_n thither_o and_o they_o who_o have_v the_o soul_n load_v with_o any_o one_o mortal_a sin_n can_v enter_v into_o the_o kingdom_n of_o heaven_n let_v we_o therefore_o cleanse_v our_o soul_n from_o former_a sin_n by_o penance_n and_o let_v we_o resist_v all_o temptation_n lest_o else_o we_o may_v return_v to_o fall_v again_o according_a to_o the_o advice_n of_o the_o apostle_n who_o say_v hold_v fast_o these_o promise_n of_o god_n which_o be_v so_o great_a and_o so_o certain_a and_o do_v concern_v those_o sublyme_n gift_n of_o grace_n and_o glory_n let_v we_o my_o brethren_n much_o belove_v cleanse_v ourselves_o from_o all_o spot_n of_o sin_n whether_o it_o be_v interior_a or_o exterior_a he_o say_v from_o all_o sin_n because_o it_o will_v behoove_v we_o to_o be_v cleanse_v from_o all_o and_o we_o must_v fly_v with_o diligence_n

god_n and_o they_o weaken_v the_o soul_n and_o dispose_v it_o to_o commit_v mortal_a sin_n &_o consequent_o to_o forfeit_v the_o kingdom_n of_o heaven_n so_o also_o for_o enter_v into_o heaven_n it_o be_v necessary_a to_o do_v good_a work_n &_o such_o as_o be_v acceptable_a to_o god_n as_o christ_n our_o lord_n affirm_v say_v 19●_n matt._n 19●_n if_o thou_o will_v enter_v into_o that_o eternal_a

let_v we_o perform_v holy_a work_n whereby_o we_o may_v fulfil_v the_o commandment_n of_o god_n and_o let_v we_o put_v in_o execution_n the_o virtue_n of_o humility_n chastity_n mercy_n justice_n temperance_n fortitude_n religion_n and_o charity_n by_o which_o if_o they_o be_v wrought_v in_o state_n of_o grace_n and_o do_v grow_v out_o of_o charity_n they_o will_v make_v we_o worthy_a of_o eternal_a life_n beside_o perseverance_n beside_o it_o exhort_v we_o to_o perseverance_n for_o the_o obtain_v of_o this_o kingdom_n of_o heaven_n it_o be_v necessary_a that_o we_o continue_v in_o the_o good_a begin_v till_o we_o end_v in_o do_v well_o as_o our_o lord_n do_v teach_v we_o say_v 24._o matt._n 24._o he_o that_o contynu_v to_o the_o end_n shall_v be_v save_v let_v we_o therefore_o persevere_v in_o good_a life_n and_o although_o the_o devil_n cumber_v we_o with_o their_o temptation_n &_o though_o man_n do_v persecute_v we_o with_o their_o injury_n and_o though_o our_o lord_n god_n do_v try_v we_o by_o many_o tribulation_n let_v we_o not_o turn_v back_o nor_o be_v dismay_v nor_o suffer_v ourselves_o to_o fall_v down_o to_o inordinate_a sorrow_n nor_o impatience_n nor_o disconfidence_n but_o let_v we_o continual_o make_v our_o recourse_n to_o god_n and_o pray_v to_o he_o with_o humility_n let_v we_o beg_v strength_n at_o his_o hand_n wherewith_o to_o suffer_v and_o constancy_n that_o we_o may_v persevere_v &_o confidence_n that_o we_o may_v not_o despair_v so_o do_v the_o apostle_n advise_v the_o galathian_o say_v 6._o galat._n 6._o we_o who_o be_v live_v well_o and_o do_v exercise_v ourselves_o in_o good_a work_n let_v we_o not_o faint_a nor_o give_v over_o no_o nor_o grow_v slack_a in_o the_o good_a course_n begin_v but_o let_v we_o continue_v and_o grow_v therein_o with_o great_a constancy_n for_o in_o due_a time_n we_o shall_v gather_v the_o fruit_n if_o we_o do_v not_o faint_a that_o be_v to_o say_v we_o shall_v eat_v the_o fruit_n of_o glory_n which_o shall_v have_v no_o end_n moreover_o next_o moreover_o we_o must_v not_o think_v of_o find_v our_o heaven_n in_o this_o life_n if_o we_o mean_v to_o have_v it_o in_o the_o next_o for_o the_o arrive_v to_o enjoy_v celestial_a beatitude_n we_o must_v despise_v the_o good_n and_o pleasure_n of_o this_o world_n and_o it_o be_v necessary_a that_o we_o place_v not_o our_o heart_n or_o end_n in_o they_o nor_o that_o we_o seek_v for_o comfort_n in_o they_o as_o christ_n our_o lord_n do_v signify_v to_o we_o by_o say_v 6._o luc._n 6._o woe_n be_v to_o you_o who_o be_v the_o lover_n of_o riches_n and_o who_o have_v place_v your_o comfort_n in_o the_o commodity_n of_o this_o life_n for_o this_o reason_n it_o will_v be_v necessary_a in_o most_o particular_a manner_n to_o contemn_v all_o the_o commodity_n of_o this_o life_n namely_o riches_n honour_n and_o pleasure_n as_o poor_a thing_n transitory_a and_o base_a for_o by_o despise_v they_o we_o shall_v not_o place_v our_o end_n nor_o seek_v for_o comfort_n in_o they_o this_o be_v therefore_o that_o fruit_n which_o we_o be_v to_o gather_v from_o the_o knowledge_n and_o desire_v of_o celestial_a beatitude_n for_o know_v the_o
