the_o preacher_n be_v most_o high_o commend_v not_o when_o the_o people_n clap_v their_o hand_n but_o when_o they_o knock_v their_o bteast_n wherefore_o as_o that_o be_v a_o idol_n and_o no_o god_n

weep_v be_v more_o flexible_a more_o forcible_a to_o persuade_v god_n and_o even_o to_o wound_v his_o heart_n than_o all_o the_o eloquence_n than_o all_o the_o rhetoric_n in_o the_o world_n cyprian_n say_v quando_fw-la spiritus_fw-la hominis_fw-la aspirat_fw-la spiritus_fw-la dei_fw-la suspirat_fw-la when_o the_o spirit_n of_o man_n send_v out_o sigh_n in_o prayer_n than_o the_o spirit_n of_o

mingle_v his_o drink_n with_o weep_v so_o he_o mingle_v his_o prayer_n with_o weep_v wherefore_o as_o elizeus_fw-la cast_v salt_n into_o the_o water_n of_o jericho_n to_o make_v they_o sweet_a so_o must_v we_o salt_v our_o prayer_n with_o tear_n to_o make_v they_o savoury_a and_o delightsome_a to_o god_n a_o man_n can_v never_o love_v himself_o aright_o if_o he_o do_v not_o sometime_o weep_v in_o repentance_n nor_o his_o neighbour_n that_o do_v not_o sometime_o weep_v in_o preach_v nor_o god_n that_o do_v not_o sometime_o weep_v in_o prayer_n so_o that_o we_o must_v not_o be_v like_o the_o stoic_n which_o be_v never_o move_v than_o we_o shall_v weep_v too_o little_a as_o this_o second_o part_n show_v but_o weep_v the_o three_o part_n be_v weep_v not_o but_o weep_v which_o note_v see_v both_o the_o excess_n and_o defect_n be_v to_o be_v eschew_v that_o therefore_o the_o true_a mean_a which_o we_o must_v keep_v in_o weep_v consist_v in_o this_o equal_a intermingle_v of_o these_o two_o extremity_n weep_v not_o but_o weep_v both_o together_o weep_v not_o too_o much_o say_v he_o for_o that_o be_v contrary_a to_o nature_n but_o weep_v too_o little_a be_v contrary_a to_o

weep_v first_o weep_v not_o then_o but_o weep_v teach_v thereby_o that_o not_o to_o weep_v be_v better_a than_o to_o weep_v yet_o to_o keep_v a_o mean_a in_o weep_v that_o we_o sometime_o in_o not_o weep_v weep_v as_o always_o in_o weep_v not_o weep_v for_o the_o apostle_n say_v that_o they_o which_o rejoice_v must_v be_v as_o if_o they_o rejoice_v not_o and_o they_o that_o weep_v as_o though_o they_o weep_v not_o they_o which_o rejoice_v must_v be_v as_o if_o they_o rejoice_v not_o because_o say_v gregory_n write_v upon_o the_o 27._o of_o job_n all_o the_o joy_n which_o the_o godly_a have_v in_o this_o life_n be_v as_o a_o sour_a grape_n gather_v out_o of_o time_n and_o ambrose_n say_v the_o child_n of_o god_n not_o only_o in_o sorrow_n but_o in_o joy_n shed_v tear_n they_o rejoice_v as_o though_o they_o rejoice_v not_o and_o they_o that_o weep_v must_v be_v as_o if_o they_o weep_v not_o because_o say_v macarius_n in_o his_o 5._o homily_n even_o tear_n be_v a_o comfort_n to_o the_o righteous_a and_o ambrose_n again_o to_o they_o that_o be_v well_o affect_v weep_v be_v a_o great_a delight_n they_o weep_v as_o though_o they_o weep_v not_o therefore_o as_o certain_a heavenly_a apple_n have_v a_o sweetish_a sowerne_n and_o some_o old_a wine_n have_v a_o sowrish_n sweetness_n so_o our_o sorrow_n must_v be_v joyful_a and_o our_o joy_n sorrowful_a our_o joy_n must_v be_v sorrowful_a as_o when_o christ_n weep_v there_o be_v a_o sorrowful_a joy_n but_o christ_n weep_v upon_o palm_n sunday_n there_o be_v a_o joyful_a sorrow_n for_o joyful_a sorrow_n when_o the_o

always_o rejoice_v and_o we_o must_v be_v as_o rejoice_v and_o yet_o always_o weep_v and_o join_v both_o together_o weep_v not_o but_o weep_v weep_v not_o this_o be_v a_o fiery_a speech_n as_o when_o
