his_o neighbour_n have_v fulfil_v the_o law_n what_o great_a praise_n may_v be_v utter_v or_o speak_v of_o any_o other_o virtue_n beside_o all_o this_o the_o most_o belove_a disciple_n of_o christ_n i_o mean_v john_n in_o his_o canonical_a epistle_n do_v repeat_v nothing_o so_o often_o neither_o commend_v any_o thing_n so_o much_o as_o this_o virtue_n and_o that_o he_o teach_v in_o his_o

galathian_o yea_o when_o he_o be_v conversant_a among_o the_o disciple_n he_o will_v often_o and_o sundry_a time_n on_o one_o day_n repeat_v it_o and_o when_o he_o be_v demand_v why_o he_o repeat_v

he_o therefore_o that_o will_v satisfy_v the_o divine_a will_n let_v he_o assure_o know_v that_o among_o all_o the_o principal_a matter_n that_o god_n command_v there_o be_v not_o one_o so_o much_o

to_o have_v annex_v unto_o it_o all_o the_o effect_n which_o be_v wont_a to_o concur_v with_o true_a love_n for_o otherwise_o it_o be_v not_o worthy_a of_o the_o name_n of_o love_n 3_o as_o the_o

neither_o do_v they_o come_v to_o the_o perfection_n of_o this_o virtue_n there_o be_v some_o that_o have_v all_o the_o foresaid_a effect_n but_o they_o edify_v their_o neighbour_n neither_o with_o

that_o thou_o may_v be_v lift_v high_a and_o high_o and_o that_o thou_o may_v not_o stick_v in_o low_a matter_n but_o if_o thou_o shall_v ask_v i_o how_o thou_o may_v be_v induce_v with_o such_o a_o

the_o workmanshyp_n of_o his_o hand_n &_o his_o son_n and_o the_o lively_a member_n of_o christ._n hence_o it_o be_v that_o saint_n paul_n so_o often_o admonish_v we_o that_o all_o we_o be_v the_o member_n of_o christ_n therefore_o by_o sin_v against_o our_o neighbour_n we_o sin_n against_o christ_n and_o by_o do_v good_a unto_o our_o neighbour_n we_o do_v good_a unto_o christ._n so_o that_o thou_o must_v consider_v of_o thy_o neighbour_n not_o as_o a_o man_n or_o such_o a_o man_n but_o as_o of_o christ_n himself_o or_o a_o lively_a member_n of_o he_o and_o although_o thy_o neighbour_n be_v not_o such_o a_o one_o in_o respect_n of_o the_o matter_n of_o his_o body_n yet_o he_o be_v such_o a_o one_o in_o regard_n of_o the_o participation_n of_o the_o same_o spirit_n and_o of_o the_o

my_o maker_n &_o i_o thy_o work_n i_o give_v thou_o thanks_o o_o my_o lord_n god_n by_o who_o i_o live_v and_o by_o who_o all_o thing_n live_v i_o give_v thou_o thanks_o o_o my_o framer_n &_o

myself_o this_o be_v therefore_o the_o first_o of_o the_o divine_a benefit_n and_o the_o foundation_n of_o all_o the_o other_o for_o all_o other_o do_v presuppose_v a_o be_v which_o be_v give_v by_o

thou_o may_v understand_v how_o large_a &_o liberal_a a_o benefit_n it_o be_v and_o how_o worthy_a it_o be_v that_o thou_o shall_v deep_o and_o profound_o consider_v of_o it_o go_v too_o therefore_o if_o god_n require_v so_o great_a a_o thanksgiving_n of_o thou_o for_o every_o one_o of_o his_o benefit_n what_o do_v thou_o think_v that_o he_o will_v require_v for_o this_o alone_a which_o be_v the_o foundation_n of_o all_o the_o other_o especial_o see_v that_o it_o be_v the_o condition_n of_o the_o divine_a godhead_n that_o as_o he_o be_v most_o liberal_a in_o bestow_v of_o his_o benefit_n so_o be_v he_o most_o desirous_a and_o as_o it_o be_v covetous_a in_o require_v thanks_o for_o they_o not_o because_o he_o do_v stand_v need_n of_o they_o but_o because_o our_o duty_n do_v will_v they_o for_o in_o the_o old_a testament_n we_o read_v that_o god_n do_v no_o soon_o bestow_v one_o benefit_n upon_o his_o people_n but_o forthwith_o it_o be_v scarce_o bestow_v he_o command_v that_o

from_o the_o egyptian_a servitude_n and_o yoke_n scarce_o they_o be_v go_v out_o of_o that_o country_n when_o he_o command_v that_o every_o year_n they_o shall_v celebrate_v a_o solemn_a feast_n in_o

that_o all_o posterity_n may_v have_v knowledge_n of_o this_o benefit_n not_o long_o after_o that_o he_o give_v they_o a_o famous_a victory_n against_o the_o amalekite_n and_o say_v unto_o moses_n 17._o write_v this_o for_o a_o remembrance_n in_o the_o book_n and_o rehearse_v it_o in_o the_o ear_n of_o josua_n if_o therefore_o god_n be_v so_o careful_a that_o the_o memory_n of_o his_o
