shall_v wax_v weary_a of_o well_o do_v christ_n say_v that_o their_o labour_n shall_v not_o be_v in_o vain_a which_o do_v exercise_v themselves_o faithful_o in_o their_o call_n luke_n say_v that_o

of_o all_o good_a thing_n but_o it_o be_v demand_v what_o he_o mean_v by_o this_o which_o be_v add_v take_v the_o talon_n from_o he_o and_o give_v it_o to_o he_o that_o have_v ten_o for_o then_o all_o

but_o the_o natural_a meaning_n be_v that_o though_o slothful_a and_o unprofitable_a servant_n be_v now_o furnish_v with_o gift_n of_o the_o spirit_n at_o length_n they_o shall_v be_v spoil_v of_o all_o that_o their_o want_n and_o shameful_a poverty_n may_v turn_v to_o the_o glory_n of_o the_o good_a christ_n say_v that_o these_o slothful_a servant_n do_v hide_v either_o their_o talon_n or_o piece_n in_o the_o earth_n because_o they_o will_v take_v no_o pain_n while_o they_o provide_v for_o their_o own_o pleasure_n and_o ease_n as_o we_o see_v many_o while_n they_o give_v themselves_o to_o themselves_o and_o to_o their_o own_o commodity_n they_o do_v fly_v all_o duty_n of_o charitye_n and_o have_v no_o respect_n of_o the_o common_a profit_n where_o it_o be_v say_v that_o the_o

so_o again_o it_o strike_v no_o small_a terror_n to_o the_o slack_a and_o slothful_a therefore_o let_v we_o learn_v before_o the_o lord_n come_v and_o reckon_v with_o we_o to_o reckon_v with_o

19_o and_o experience_n do_v also_o declare_v the_o same_o therefore_o christ_n in_o john_n 7._o 24._o compare_v together_o judgement_n according_a to_o the_o appearance_n and_o righteous_a

have_v by_o nature_n and_o of_o his_o own_o right_n further_o how_o necessary_a it_o be_v that_o we_o shall_v have_v this_o wisdom_n it_o appear_v by_o this_o that_o if_o we_o take_v not_o heed_n of_o the_o snare_n of_o the_o wicked_a we_o shall_v make_v the_o doctrine_n of_o god_n subject_n to_o their_o slander_n also_o that_o commandment_n of_o christ_n that_o they_o shall_v show_v their_o

notwithstanding_o he_o do_v conceal_v his_o name_n of_o set_a purpose_n lest_o he_o shall_v shut_v the_o gate_n of_o repentance_n against_o he_o but_o forasmuch_o as_o he_o be_v desperate_a the_o

appear_v unto_o they_o thereby_o and_o again_o they_o do_v perceive_v that_o purity_n be_v a_o most_o singular_a gift_n of_o the_o spirit_n 12_o therefore_o after_o that_o he_o have_v wash_v their_o

that_o he_o who_o be_v you_o e_o lord_n and_o master_n of_o all_o have_v give_v a_o example_n which_o all_o the_o godly_a must_v follow_v lest_o any_o man_n shall_v grudge_v to_o abase_v himself_o
