under_o the_o creature_n as_o may_v best_o fit_v his_o purpose_n many_o wicked_a soothsayer_n satan_n cast_v into_o pang_n and_o fit_n of_o fury_n and_o then_o speak_v they_o by_o he_o or_o he_o rather_o by_o they_o what_o he_o will_n devil_n 4_o in_o that_o satan_n choose_v the_o serpent_n rather_o than_o a_o other_o creature_n because_o he_o be_v wily_a and_o subtle_a i_o think_v it_o shall_v give_v a_o good_a watchword_n to_o the_o crafty_a head_n of_o this_o world_n to_o take_v heed_n lest_o satan_n make_v also_o choice_n of_o they_o for_o some_o purpose_n as_o fit_a for_o he_o and_o best_a able_a by_o their_o guileful_a fetch_n that_o they_o abound_v with_o and_o excel_v in_o to_o serve_v his_o devilship_n sure_o we_o see_v by_o this_o they_o be_v like_a to_o be_v assay_v then_o plain_a man_n and_o true_a dealer_n be_v for_o plain_a man_n and_o woman_n that_o walk_v plain_o upright_o just_o and_o honest_o they_o will_v not_o fit_v the_o devil_n turn_n indeed_o they_o

i_o think_v answer_v they_o that_o say_v because_o as_o yet_o there_o be_v no_o enmity_n set_v betwixt_o the_o woman_n and_o he_o cyrill_n think_v because_o the_o woman_n in_o simplicity_n think_v that_o such_o other_o creature_n speak_v aswell_o as_o her_o husband_n and_o she_o 6_o she_o be_v thus_o tempt_v note_n seduce_v and_o overthrow_v in_o paradise_n and_o it_o may_v well_o admonish_v we_o fall_n that_o if_o that_o paradise_n can_v not_o free_v they_o from_o temptation_n sure_o our_o paradise_n here_o shall_v never_o do_v it_o but_o even_o in_o our_o princely_a palace_n our_o

god_n these_o paint_a paradise_n be_v not_o rather_o the_o place_n and_o mean_n of_o our_o woeful_a faull_n than_o poor_a place_n be_v we_o geve_v ourselves_o so_o much_o to_o the_o pleasure_n of_o

when_o they_o have_v few_o delight_n o_o how_o have_v court_n of_o prince_n rob_v they_o of_o virtue_n when_o in_o country_n and_o mean_a place_n no_o devil_n can_v violate_v or_o defile_v bewace_n
