the_o thing_n that_o we_o regard_n of_o the_o body_n &_o the_o pleasour_n thereof_o be_v all_o our_o mind_n wherefore_o we_o do_v wyllyng_o gyve_v ear_n to_o the_o devil_n move_a we_o to_o the_o

they_o labour_v still_o to_o go_v aloft_o &_o to_o be_v hygh_a in_o promotion_n &_o dignity_n hereof_o it_o come_v that_o the_o lay_v people_n do_v grudge_n against_o the_o cleargye_n disdain_v to_o be_v teach_v of_o they_o challenge_a unto_o they_o self_n a_o more_o perfaicte_a knowledge_n in_o scripture_n then_o the_o other_o have_v and_o say_v that_o the_o mystery_n of_o scripture_n be_v open_v unto_o they_o by_z i_o can_v not_o tell_v what_o spirit_n so_o that_o if_o they_o have_v read_v over_o once_o the_o new_a testament_n in_o englyshe_a they_o will_v not_o stick_v to_o interpret_v the_o moo_v dark_a place_n in_o scripture_n contrary_a both_o to_o the_o ancient_a and_o moo_v holy_a doctor_n and_o also_o the_o decree_n of_o the_o church_n and_o if_o this_o question_n be_v move_v unto_o they_o that_o be_v move_v unto_o john_n tu_fw-la quis_fw-la es_fw-la what_o be_v thou_o that_o thus_o do_v take_v upon_o the_o to_o interpret_v scripture_n contrary_a to_o the_o church_n and_o the_o doctor_n thereof_o he_o will_v straight_o make_v answer_n and_o say_v i_o be_o one_o who_o eye_n it_o have_v please_v god_n to_o have_v open_v that_o i_o shall_v see_v his_o truth_n the_o church_n have_v err_v the_o doctor_n have_v be_v disceave_v as_o i_o know_v i_o myself_o can_v not_o be_v for_o i_o be_o sure_a that_o i_o be_o one_o of_o the_o predestinate_a and_o elect_v &_o thereof_o they_o will_v large_o and_o lyberal_o dispute_v and_o reason_n not_o know_v what_o the_o scripture_n do_v mean_a by_o predestination_n and_o election_n for_o they_o seem_v to_o make_v it_o such_o a_o thing_n as_o and_o if_o god_n shall_v appoint_v certain_a out_o by_o the_o head_n and_o say_v these_o i_o will_v shall_v be_v save_v how_o so_o ever_o they_o do_v live_v and_o shall_v shette_v a_o other_o sort_n ouâ—_n of_o the_o door_n and_o say_v they_o shall_v be_v damn_v if_o they_o live_v never_o so_o virtuous_o which_o thing_n either_o to_o say_v or_o think_v be_v a_o detestable_a error_n and_o a_o devellyshe_a opinion_n i_o do_v think_v that_o paul_n know_v no_o such_o election_n although_o they_o gether_o of_o he_o many_o place_n for_o the_o confirmation_n thereof_o which_o trulye_o understonde_v do_v nothing_o make_v for_o their_o purpose_n for_o he_o say_v 2_o 2._o timo._n 2_o omnia_fw-la suffero_fw-la propter_fw-la electos_fw-la ut_fw-la &_o ipsi_fw-la salutem_fw-la consequantur_fw-la i_o do_v suffer_v all_o thing_n for_o the_o elect_v that_o they_o also_o may_v obtain_v salvation_n likewise_o saint_n petre_n say_v 1._o 2._o pet._n 1._o minister_v in_o your_o faith_n virtue_n in_o virtue_n knowledge_n in_o knowledge_n temperance_n in_o temperance_n patience_n in_o patience_n godliness_n in_o godliness_n brotherly_a love_n in_o brotherlye_v love_n general_a love_n for_o if_o these_o thing_n be_v plentuous_o in_o you_o they_o will_v not_o let_v you_o be_v idel_n nor_o unfrutefull_a in_o the_o knowledge_n of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n but_o he_o that_o lack_v these_o thing_n be_v blind_a and_o grope_v for_o the_o way_n with_o his_o hand_n and_o have_v forget_v that_o he_o be_v clensh_v from_o his_o old_a sin_n wherefore_o breatherne_a say_v saint_n petre_n gyve_v the_o
work_n of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n so_o john_n here_o say_v he_o be_v the_o voice_n of_o a_o crier_n as_o and_o if_o he_o shall_v say_v i_o speak_v nothing_o of_o my_o own_o head_n but_o i_o speak_v those_o thing_n that_o be_v command_v i_o of_o my_o master_n to_o speak_v lyberal_o utter_a those_o thing_n that_o my_o commission_n wyll_v i_o to_o speak_v and_o nothing_o there_o unto_o add_v wherefore_o if_o you_o reject_v my_o sayinge_v you_o do_v not_o reject_v i_o but_o rather_o he_o that_o speak_v in_o i_o for_o i_o be_o but_o a_o voice_n whereby_o as_o by_o a_o instrument_n christ_n do_v declare_v unto_o you_o his_o will_n a_o voice_n of_o 〈◊〉_d self_n be_v a_o sound_n that_o go_v before_o the_o word_n so_o that_o if_o the_o word_n do_v not_o follow_v the_o voice_n be_v a_o vain_a thing_n as_o it_o be_v brass_n sound_a or_o a_o cymbal_n tinkle_v and_o so_o be_v john_n the_o voice_n of_o christ_n the_o everla_a word_n of_o the_o father_n without_o who_o john_n shall_v have_v be_v a_o vain_a thing_n but_o now_o that_o the_o word_n christ_n do_v follow_v the_o voice_n be_v not_o vain_a but_o rather_o as_o davyd_v say_v vox_fw-la domini_fw-la in_o virtute_fw-la vox_fw-la domini_fw-la in_o magnificentia_fw-la 28._o psal_n 28._o the_o voice_n of_o our_o lord_n be_v in_o virtue_n the_o voice_n of_o our_o lord_n be_v in_o pythe_n &_o in_o strength_n the_o voice_n of_o the_o lord_n that_o pull_v down_o the_o high_a tree_n of_o libanus_n which_o in_o dead_a john_n dydde_v when_o he_o pull_v down_o the_o stout_a heart_n of_o the_o jew_n so_o that_o by_o penance_n they_o wear_v content_a to_o be_v baptize_v of_o he_o yet_o it_o be_v not_o john_n that_o do_v it_o but_o it_o be_v he_o which_o stand_v the_o last_o great_a day_n of_o the_o feast_n and_o cry_v sayenge_a 7._o john_n 7._o if_o any_o man_n be_v a_o thyrste_fw-mi let_v he_o come_v unto_o i_o and_o drink_v the_o euangelyst_n say_v that_o he_o cry_v which_o be_v because_o he_o will_v have_v every_o man_n to_o hear_v he_o that_o every_o man_n may_v be_v save_v 2_o 1._o timo._n 2_o &_o come_v to_o knowledge_n of_o the_o truth_n for_o it_o be_v not_o his_o will_n that_o any_o shall_v

veritatis_fw-la non_fw-la receperunt_fw-la 2._o 2._o thes_n 2._o in_fw-la hoc_fw-la ut_fw-la salui_fw-la fierent_fw-la they_o do_v perish_v because_o they_o receive_v not_o the_o love_n of_o the_o truth_n the_o they_o may_v have_v be_v save_v but_o peradventure_o some_o will_n object_n and_o say_v if_o he_o will_v have_v everye_o man_n save_v than_o they_o shall_v be_v save_v for_o who_o can_v resist_v his_o will_n unto_o this_o be_v to_o be_v answer_v that_o we_o must_v consydre_v two_o wylle_n to_o be_v in_o in_o god_n a_o will_n that_o go_v before_o &_o a_o other_o that_o come_v after_o by_o his_o first_o will_n he_o will_v have_v all_o man_n to_o walk_v in_o his_o commandment_n and_o so_o come_v to_o everla_a life_n but_o when_o he_o see_v the_o untowardnes_n of_o those_o that_o will_v follow_v their_o own_o lust_n and_o will_v not_o obey_v his_o commandment_n then_o by_o his_o late_a will_n he_o will_v have_v they_o punish_v accord_v to_o their_o desert_n as_o for_o a_o exemple_n a_o man_n set_v a_o tree_n in_o his_o garden_n willing_a that_o it_o shall_v grow_v there_o many_o year_n for_o to_o bring_v forth_o fruit_n now_o within_o few_o year_n when_o he_o see_v that_o it_o will_v bring_v forth_o none_o he_o command_v by_o and_o by_o contrary_a to_o his_o first_o will_n to_o cut_v it_o down_o say_v where_o unto_o do_v it_o occupy_v the_o ground_n in_o vain_a it_o be_v not_o unlike_a unto_o this_o that_o be_v write_v in_o the_o psalm_n 79._o psat_fw-la 79._o vineam_fw-la de_fw-la egipto_n transtulisti_fw-la thou_o haste_v bring_v out_o of_o egypte_n a_o

say_v he_o look_v that_o it_o shall_v have_v bring_v grape_n &_o it_o bring_v out_o thorn_n so_o that_o the_o fault_n be_v in_o it_o and_o not_o in_o he_o for_o god_n do_v ask_v by_o esaie_n and_o say_v what_o shall_v i_o have_v do_v to_o my_o vineyard_n that_o i_o have_v not_o do_v true_o nothing_o for_o as_o i_o have_v say_v he_o cry_v unto_o we_o willing_n every_o man_n to_o amend_v his_o

his_o preacher_n but_o we_o stop_v our_o ear_n &_o will_v not_o hear_v we_o be_v much_o like_o unto_o the_o people_n of_o london_n which_o do_v hear_v after_o a_o sort_n the_o bell_n of_o paul_n when_o they_o ring_v to_o matyn_n at_o mydnight_n the_o bell_n do_v sound_o in_o their_o ear_n yet_o they_o will_v not_o rise_v but_o rather_o will_v turn_v they_o on_o other_o side_n and_o sleep_v again_o for_o they_o think_v the_o day_n be_v not_o as_o yet_o near_o even_o so_o do_v we_o hear_v the_o preacher_n of_o god_n their_o voice_n do_v sound_o in_o our_o ear_n but_o we_o will_v not_o arise_v from_o our_o naughty_a life_n but_o still_o sleep_v in_o sin_n think_v that_o the_o day_n do_v not_o draw_v near_o when_o as_o we_o shall_v make_v account_n of_o our_o act_n but_o let_v we_o not_o deceyve_v ourselves_o for_o saint_n paul_n say_v it_o be_v time_n for_o we_o to_o rise_v from_o sleep_v the_o night_n be_v past_a and_o the_o day_n draw_v near_o now_o if_o the_o day_n be_v
