and_o so_o sweet_a to_o our_o ear_n that_o there_o be_v no_o siren_n which_o can_v so_o inchant_v man_n nor_o put_v they_o so_o out_o of_o their_o wit_n and_o therefore_o we_o have_v need_v to_o stop_v our_o ear_n and_o make_v ourselves_o deaf_a to_o they_o saint_n john_n climacus_n advise_v we_o when_o man_n praise_v we_o to_o call_v our_o sin_n to_o mind_n for_o so_o shall_v we_o find_v ourselves_o to_o be_v unworthy_a of_o the_o praise_n they_o give_v and_o so_o shall_v we_o draw_v more_o humility_n and_o confusion_n from_o thence_o this_o may_v therefore_o be_v the_o second_o thing_n upon_o which_o you_o may_v particular_o examine_v yourselves_o namely_o that_o you_o rejoice_v not_o to_o be_v well_o speak_v of_o and_o praise_v by_o other_o and_o to_o this_o we_o may_v also_o join_v the_o be_v glad_a when_o other_o be_v well_o speak_v of_o and_o praise_v which_o be_v a_o point_n of_o very_o great_a importance_n and_o whensoever_o you_o find_v either_o any_o

this_o be_v a_o very_a profitable_a examination_n &_o it_o may_v be_v divide_v into_o many_o part_n first_o it_o may_v be_v make_v upon_o the_o not_o do_v of_o any_o thing_n for_o humane_a respect_n

this_o also_o grow_v from_o pride_n when_o commit_v a_o fault_n and_o be_v tell_v of_o it_o we_o instant_o make_v our_o excuse_n and_o without_o even_o mark_v it_o we_o make_v one_o excuse_n

excuse_v his_o sin_n because_o it_o come_v to_o we_o by_o descent_n from_o our_o first_o parent_n as_o soon_o as_o the_o first_o man_n have_v sin_v he_o go_v instant_o to_o hide_v himself_o among_o the_o tree_n of_o paradise_n and_o god_n reprove_v he_o for_o his_o disobedience_n he_o thus_o excuse_v himself_o present_o upon_o his_o wife_n o_o lord_n that_o woman_n who_o thou_o give_v i_o for_o

thereof_o god_n examine_v they_o about_o their_o sin_n to_o the_o end_n that_o know_v it_o and_o confess_v it_o they_o may_v obtain_v pardon_n for_o it_o and_o so_o saint_n gregory_n say_v that_o he_o do_v not_o examine_v the_o serpent_n because_o he_o mean_v not_o to_o pardon_v the_o serpent_n but_o they_o instead_o of_o humble_v themselves_o and_o acknowledge_v their_o sin_n towards_o the_o

they_o have_v hear_v from_o the_o devil_n mouth_n that_o they_o shall_v be_v like_o god_n since_o they_o can_v not_o become_v like_o he_o in_o the_o point_n of_o his_o divinity_n they_o endeavour_v to_o make_v he_o like_o they_o in_o the_o point_n of_o their_o sin_n and_o so_o they_o make_v it_o great_a by_o defend_v it_o than_o they_o have_v do_v by_o commit_v it_o and_o now_o as_o be_v child_n of_o such_o parent_n and_o in_o fine_a as_o be_v man_n we_o still_o remain_v with_o this_o infirmity_n and_o with_o this_o defect_n and_o ill_a custom_n and_o when_o we_o be_v reprove_v for_o any_o salt_n we_o instant_o have_v a_o mind_n to_o cover_v it_o with_o a_o excuse_n as_o under_o bow_n and_o leaf_n yea_o and_o sometime_o a_o man_n be_v not_o content_a to_o excuse_v himself_o but_o he_o must_v needs_o be_v cast_v the_o fault_n upon_o other_o one_o compare_v such_o as_o excuse_v themselves_o to_o he_o hedghoge_n which_o when_o she_o perceive_v that_o they_o go_v about_o to_o take_v

touch_v she_o without_o prick_a himself_n first_o so_o that_o you_o shall_v soon_o see_v your_o own_o blood_n than_o her_o body_n in_o this_o manner_n say_v he_o be_v they_o who_o be_v wont_a to_o excuse_v themselves_o for_o if_o you_o will_v but_o touch_v they_o by_o tell_v they_o the_o fault_n which_o they_o make_v they_o instant_o defend_v themselves_o like_o the_o hedgehog_n &_o some_o

thereby_o then_o for_o have_v commit_v they_o and_o so_o we_o procure_v to_o conceal_v and_o hide_v they_o the_o most_o we_o can_v nay_o there_o be_v some_o so_o unmortified_a in_o this_o kind_n that_o even_o before_o you_o say_v any_o thing_n they_o prevent_v you_o and_o excuse_v themselves_o and_o give_v reason_n for_o that_o which_o they_o think_v you_o may_v object_v and_o they_o say_v if_o i_o do_v this_o it_o be_v for_o this_o reason_n and_o if_o i_o do_v that_o it_o be_v for_o that_o and_o the_o like_a but_o who_o in_o the_o mean_a time_n prick_v you_o now_o that_o you_o must_v skip_v so_o high_a the_o goad_n of_o pride_n it_o be_v which_o you_o carry_v so_o deep_o root_v in_o your_o heart_n this_o be_v that_o which_o prick_v you_o and_o which_o make_v you_o leap_v even_o
