affliction_n of_o christ_n 1.24_o which_o he_o in_o his_o body_n that_o be_v the_o church_n do_v yet_o still_o suffer_v and_o this_o be_v the_o cross_n which_o be_v here_o mean_v but_o it_o be_v further_o say_v his_o cross_n not_o that_o cross_n which_o a_o man_n frame_v unto_o his_o own_o self_n or_o rash_o pull_v upon_o himself_o as_o sundry_a martyr_n in_o the_o primitive_a church_n seem_v to_o do_v who_o yet_o i_o dare_v not_o censure_v because_o i_o know_v not_o with_o what_o spirit_n they_o do_v it_o for_o we_o may_v not_o like_o coecias_n draw_v storm_n and_o cloud_n upon_o our_o own_o head_n and_o our_o saviour_n himself_o advize_v we_o when_o they_o persecute_v we_o in_o one_o city_n to_o fly_v into_o another_o then_o only_o be_v we_o bind_v to_o bear_v the_o cross_n when_o without_o deny_v the_o truth_n we_o can_v avoid_v it_o our_o cross_n then_o be_v that_o which_o be_v impose_v upon_o we_o by_o god_n whether_o it_o be_v poverty_n or_o ignominy_n or_o imprisonment_n or_o banishment_n or_o whip_v or_o rack_a or_o torment_n or_o death_n of_o what_o kind_n soever_o for_o god_n lay_v not_o the_o same_o cross_n on_o all_o but_o one_o cross_n on_o one_o and_o another_o on_o another_o as_o he_o in_o his_o wisdom_n think_v best_a but_o whatsoever_o the_o cross_n be_v which_o god_n appoint_v unto_o a_o man_n that_o be_v his_o cross_n and_o this_o cross_n say_v christ_n must_v be_v take_v up_o it_o be_v the_o manner_n that_o he_o that_o be_v cruciarius_fw-la to_o be_v crucify_v be_v to_o bear_v his_o cross_n or_o some_o part_n thereof_o unto_o the_o place_n of_o execution_n so_o do_v christ_n until_o meet_v with_o simon_n of_o cyrene_n they_o compel_v he_o to_o bear_v his_o cross_n but_o malefactor_n bear_v it_o against_o their_o will_n our_o saviour_n willing_o which_o be_v the_o very_a form_n of_o his_o suffering_n and_o he_o require_v all_o those_o that_o will_v come_v after_o he_o to_o do_v so_o too_o for_o to_o take_v up_o the_o cross_n import_v not_o only_o a_o patient_a bear_n of_o it_o when_o it_o be_v lay_v upon_o we_o but_o also_o a_o ready_a and_o voluntary_a undergo_n of_o it_o and_o this_o also_o say_v our_o saviour_n must_v be_v do_v daily_o that_o be_v at_o all_o time_n and_o continual_o not_o but_o that_o the_o church_n have_v sometime_o her_o lucida_fw-la intervalla_fw-la her_o good_a day_n for_o the_o rod_n of_o the_o wicked_a rest_v not_o always_o upon_o the_o lot_n of_o the_o righteous_a 125.3_o and_o after_o storm_n and_o tempest_n god_n send_v calm_a &_o halcionian_a time_n how_o then_o thus._n whensoever_o god_n send_v the_o cross_n unto_o any_o he_o must_v actual_o take_v it_o up_o in_o the_o time_n of_o peace_n and_o when_o there_o be_v no_o cross_n though_o actual_o he_o can_v yet_o must_v he_o take_v it_o up_o in_o the_o preparation_n and_o disposition_n of_o the_o mind_n and_o this_o be_v the_o substance_n of_o the_o second_o counsel_n let_v he_o take_v up_o his_o cross_n daily_o the_o necessity_n of_o it_o if_o we_o will_v come_v after_o christ_n be_v easy_a to_o be_v demonstrate_v what_o more_o manifest_a in_o the_o scripture_n than_o this_o that_o the_o cross_n be_v
