wherefore_o every_o christian_a man_n ought_v diligent_o to_o apply_v it_o namely_o the_o moral_a part_n which_o god_n write_v first_o in_o the_o heart_n of_o man_n and_o afterward_o willing_a to_o have_v everye_o man_n to_o know_v it_o he_o write_v it_o in_o the_o table_n of_o stone_n which_o he_o give_v to_o moses_n promisinge_v by_o he_o a_o reward_n for_o such_o thing_n which_o before_o be_v observe_v for_o virtue_n sake_n so_o that_o moral_a philosophye_n may_v well_o be_v call_v that_o part_n of_o god_n law_n which_o geve_v commandment_n of_o outward_a behavyour_fw-mi which_o differ_v from_o the_o gospel_n in_o as_o much_o as_o the_o gospel_n promyse_v remission_n of_o sin_n reconcile_a to_o god_n and_o the_o gift_n of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n and_o of_o eternal_a life_n for_o christ_n sake_n which_o promise_n be_v revel_v to_o we_o from_o above_o not_o able_a to_o be_v comprehend_v by_o reason_n according_a to_o the_o say_n of_o s._n john_n the_o sun_n which_o be_v in_o his_o father_n bosom_n have_v show_v it_o to_o us._n and_o as_o for_o philosophy_n be_v nothing_o else_o but_o the_o observe_n &_o eschue_v of_o such_o thing_n as_o reason_n judge_v to_o be_v good_a &_o bad_a in_o the_o mutual_a conversation_n of_o life_n to_o which_o god_n have_v promise_v a_o reward_n and_o threten_v a_o punishment_n so_o that_o the_o gospel_n be_v comprehend_v only_o by_o faith_n and_o philosophy_n be_v judge_v by_o reason_n reason_n only_o be_v the_o cause_n why_o all_o the_o phylosofer_n have_v so_o extol_v philosophy_n which_o considere_v that_o nothiuge_n be_v so_o requisite_a and_o behooveful_a for_o man_n life_n as_o to_o live_v together_o well_o and_o lovyng_o for_o like_a as_o life_n can_v not_o be_v maintain_v without_o meat_n and_o drink_v and_o other_o like_o good_a gift_n of_o nature_n no_o more_o can_v it_o continue_v long_o without_o law_n &_o manner_n the_o lack_n whereof_o saint_n john_n in_o his_o epistle_n argue_v to_o be_v the_o lack_n of_o godliness_n say_v if_o we_o love_v not_o our_o neighbour_n who_o we_o see_v how_o can_v we_o say_v we_o love_v god_n who_o we_o see_v not_o which_o text_n be_v well_o ponder_v make_v as_o much_o for_o the_o commendation_n of_o moral_a philosophy_n as_o any_o of_o saint_n paul_n do_v to_o the_o dispraise_n thereof_o wherefore_o i_o humble_o beseech_v the_o most_o gentle_a reader_n to_o take_v in_o good_a part_n this_o simple_a philosopycal_a treatyse_n &_o so_o to_o use_v it_o as_o saint_n augustine_n have_v teach_v we_o take_v the_o good_a and_o leave_v the_o bad_a neither_o reverence_a it_n as_o the_o gospel_n neither_o yet_o despise_v it_o as_o a_o thing_n of_o no_o value_n and_o since_o the_o hollye_n scripture_n be_v now_o come_v to_o light_v &_o christian_n have_v profess_v to_o follow_v and_o fulfil_v the_o same_o have_v also_o innumerable_a blessing_n and_o reward_n promise_v of_o god_n for_o our_o so_o do_v let_v we_o be_v ashamed_a that_o a_o drop_n or_o sparkle_n of_o reason_n shall_v do_v more_o in_o the_o heathen_a infidle_n as_o we_o call_v they_o than_o ●ll_o the_o promise_n of_o god_n among_o we_o which_o take_v upon_o we_o the_o name_n of_o christian_n ●nd_n let_v we_o so_o end_n evour_v ourselves_o every_o man_n in_o his_o vocation_n to_o use_v such_o moral_a ●ertues_n and_o virtuous_a behavyour_n one_o to_o ward_n a_o other_o that_o our_o love_n and_o
