ought_v to_o pray_v for_o they_o that_o be_v depart_v out_o of_o this_o world_n or_o no._n wherein_o if_o we_o will_v cleave_v only_o unto_o the_o word_n of_o god_n then_o must_v we_o needs_o grant_v that_o we_o have_v no_o commandment_n so_o to_o do_v for_o the_o scripture_n do_v acknowledge_v but_o two_o place_n after_o this_o life_n the_o one_o proper_a to_o the_o elect_a and_o bless_a of_o

expound_v say_v in_o this_o wise_n that_o which_o abraham_n speak_v unto_o the_o 10._o rich_fw-fr man_n in_o luke_n gospel_n namely_o that_o the_o just_a can_v not_o go_v into_o those_o place_n where_o the_o wicked_a 38._o be_v torment_v what_o other_o thing_n do_v it_o signify_v but_o only_o this_o that_o the_o just_a by_o reason_n of_o god_n judgement_n which_o may_v not_o be_v revoke_v can_v show_v no_o deed_n of_o mercy_n in_o help_v they_o which_o after_o this_o life_n be_v cast_v into_o prison_n until_o they_o pay_v the_o uttermost_a farth_a these_o word_n as_o they_o confound_v the_o opinion_n of_o help_v the_o dead_a by_o prayer_n so_o they_o do_v clean_o confute_v and_o take_v away_o the_o vain_a error_n of_o purgatory_n which_o be_v ground_v upon_o this_o say_n of_o the_o gospel_n thou_o shall_v not_o depart_v thence_o until_o thou_o have_v pay_v the_o uttermost_a farthing_n now_o do_v saint_n augustine_n say_v that_o those_o man_n which_o be_v cast_v into_o prison_n after_o this_o life_n on_o that_o condition_n may_v in_o no_o wise_n be_v help_v though_o we_o will_v help_v they_o never_o so_o much_o and_o why_o because_o the_o sentence_n of_o god_n be_v unchangeable_a &_o can_v not_o be_v revoke_v again_o therefore_o let_v we_o not_o deceive_v ourselves_o think_v that_o either_o we_o may_v help_v other_o or_o other_o may_v help_v we_o by_o their_o good_a and_o charitable_a prayer_n in_o time_n to_o come_v for_o as_o the_o preacher_n say_v when_o the_o 11_o tree_n fall_v whether_o it_o be_v towards_o the_o south_n or_o toward_o the_o north_n in_o what_o place_n soever_o the_o tree_n fall_v there_o it_o lie_v meaning_n thereby_o that_o every_o mortal_a man_n die_v either_o in_o the_o state_n of_o salvation_n or_o damnation_n accord_v as_o the_o word_n of_o the_o evangelist_n john_n do_v also_o plain_o impart_v say_v he_o that_o believe_v on_o the_o son_n of_o god_n 3._o have_v eternal_a life_n but_o he_o that_o believe_v not_o on_o the_o son_n shall_v never_o see_v life_n but_o the_o wrath_n of_o god_n abide_v upon_o he_o where_o be_v then_o the_o third_o place_n which_o they_o call_v purgatory_n or_o where_o shall_v our_o prayer_n help_v and_o profit_v the_o dead_a saint_n augustine_n do_v only_o acknowledge_v two_o place_n hypogno_fw-it after_o this_o life_n heaven_n and_o hell_n as_o for_o the_o third_o place_n he_o do_v plain_o deny_v that_o there_o be_v any_o such_o to_o be_v find_v in_o all_o scripture_n chrisostome_n metrianun_fw-fr likewise_o be_v of_o this_o mind_n that_o unless_o we_o wash_v away_o our_o sin_n in_o this_o present_a world_n we_o shall_v find_v no_o comfort_n afterward_o and_o saint_n cyprian_n say_v that_o after_o death_n repentance_n and_o sorrow_n of_o pain_n shall_v be_v without_o

because_o when_o they_o be_v once_o depart_v out_o of_o this_o life_n there_o be_v no_o place_n for_o repentance_n nor_o yet_o for_o satisfaction_n let_v these_o and_o such_o other_o place_n be_v
