that_o we_o will_v therefore_o go_v back_o from_o the_o truth_n for_o by_o death_n do_v not_o we_o lose_v life_n yea_o christ_n have_v make_v death_n to_o be_v the_o way_n unto_o life_n and_o by_o

to_o die_v also_o for_o he_o special_o consider_v that_o the_o publish_n of_o so_o excellent_a grace_n be_v commit_v unto_o us._n when_o the_o shepherd_n die_v for_o the_o sheep_n it_o be_v no_o

man_n die_v without_o pain_n and_o grief_n which_o thing_n be_v appoint_v unto_o we_o by_o the_o wisdom_n of_o god_n to_o the_o intent_n no_o man_n shall_v kill_v himself_o for_o see_v the_o devil_n do_v now_o and_o then_o persuade_v some_o to_o murder_v themselves_o how_o shall_v it_o go_v if_o the_o soul_n be_v not_o so_o loath_a to_o depart_v from_o the_o body_n with_o these_o word_n therefore_o think_v nor_o christ_n to_o make_v peter_n afraid_a or_o to_o discourage_v he_o but_o to_o furnish_v he_o and_o make_v he_o ripe_a for_o peter_n have_v a_o good_a desire_n to_o suffer_v somewhat_o for_o christ_n sake_n nevertheless_o be_v yet_o young_a he_o can_v not_o follow_v but_o when_o he_o be_v old_a he_o follow_v he_o therefore_o will_v christ_n perform_v his_o desire_n as_o if_o christ_n will_v say_v peter_n thou_o have_v hitheto_o be_v weak_a &_o fearful_a but_o i_o will_v strengthen_v thou_o so_o that_o hence_o forth_o thou_o shall_v deny_v i_o no_o more_o but_o
