can_v abide_v it_o it_o grieve_v we_o we_o be_v marveilous_o trouble_v with_o it_o and_o therefore_o be_v we_o so_o careful_a to_o provide_v meat_n for_o the_o body_n and_o clothes_n for_o our_o

to_o clothe_v the_o nakedness_n of_o it_o lest_o it_o die_v eternal_o we_o be_v not_o a_o whit_n careful_a for_o that_o because_o we_o feel_v nothing_o at_o all_o the_o misery_n &_o danger_n that_o

and_o now_o in_o the_o fear_n of_o god_n let_v we_o begin_v more_o deep_o to_o consider_v the_o thing_n especial_o see_v the_o dear_a son_n of_o god_n exhort_v we_o thereunto_o and_o say_v i_o give_v you_o a_o new_a commandment_n that_o you_o love_v one_o a_o other_o if_o a_o prince_n or_o any_o noble_a personage_n speak_v unto_o we_o exhort_v we_o to_o any_o good_a thing_n we_o use_v to_o give_v

good_a will_n and_o favour_n what_o shall_v we_o then_o say_v to_o our_o saviour_n christ_n the_o king_n of_o king_n above_o all_o the_o noble_n upon_o the_o earth_n who_o do_v here_o exhort_v we_o to_o love_v one_o a_o other_o shall_v we_o make_v none_o account_v of_o his_o word_n but_o without_o regard_n fling_v they_o at_o our_o heel_n not_o care_v for_o the_o loss_n of_o his_o heavenly_a favour_n who_o give_v his_o own_o self_n to_o the_o death_n to_o purchase_v our_o life_n sure_o we_o shall_v then_o declare_v ourselves_o to_o be_v worse_o than_o the_o bruit_n beast_n who_o yet_o use_v to_o have_v some_o regard_n to_o their_o master_n that_o feed_v they_o and_o show_v they_o favour_n if_o we_o shall_v not_o then_o careful_o take_v heed_n unto_o those_o thing_n which_o be_v

in_o the_o fear_n of_o god_n look_v unto_o it_o not_o slender_o and_o with_o dull_a ear_n and_o hard_a heart_n consider_v of_o it_o for_o it_o be_v the_o dear_a son_n of_o god_n that_o speak_v unto_o we_o that_o require_v of_o we_o that_o we_o love_v one_o a_o other_o if_o he_o have_v but_o slender_o handle_v our_o matter_n concern_v our_o redemption_n we_o have_v be_v but_o in_o slender_a case_n if_o we_o shall_v now_o give_v but_o slender_a ear_n unto_o that_o which_o he_o speak_v unto_o we_o and_o make_v it_o as_o a_o thing_n of_o course_n sure_o we_o provoke_v his_o judgement_n against_o we_o who_o majesty_n we_o dare_v so_o bold_o abuse_v if_o it_o be_v high_a treason_n to_o cast_v off_o the_o word_n of_o a_o prince_n &_o make_v no_o account_n of_o they_o what_o shall_v we_o say_v of_o the_o reject_v the_o word_n of_o this_o our_o heavenly_a prince_n and_o saviour_n you_o see_v then_o it_o stand_v we_o in_o hand_n diligent_o to_o hear_v prudent_o to_o mark_v and_o deep_o to_o
