of_o life_n who_o shall_v attain_v to_o the_o same_o so_o soon_o as_o christian_n man_n and_o sith_o we_o be_v all_o of_o that_o number_n how_o come_v it_o then_o to_o pass_v that_o so_o few_o be_v

although_o i_o may_v in_o few_o word_n answer_v and_o say_v that_o there_o lack_v in_o we_o that_o lyvely_a and_o perfect_a love_n of_o god_n and_o the_o life_n to_o come_v which_o shall_v be_v in_o we_o and_o be_v in_o they_o of_o who_o i_o speak_v yet_o to_o make_v this_o point_n more_o plain_a for_o it_o be_v less_o to_o say_v all_o then_o to_o touch_v each_o part_n of_o all_o i_o find_v three_o cause_n especial_a that_o make_v man_n desirous_a to_o live_v and_o loath_a to_o die_v 1_o the_o one_o be_v our_o weakness_n which_o seem_v to_o have_v some_o excuse_n because_o nature_n desire_v the_o conceruation_n of_o itself_o &_o abhor_v dissolution_n which_o both_o take_v away_o our_o be_v and_o also_o bring_v with_o it_o great_a grief_n and_o pain_n which_o man_n see_v in_o other_o and_o fly_v in_o themselves_o fear_v death_n who_o servant_n and_o messenger_n they_o be_v 2_o the_o second_o cause_n be_v either_o the_o lack_n or_o the_o small_a quantity_n of_o faith_n in_o we_o whereby_o we_o believe_v not_o or_o faint_o believe_v the_o marvellous_a promise_n of_o incomparable_a bliss_n promise_v by_o god_o unto_o his_o faithful_a after_o this_o transitory_a and_o present_a life_n 3_o but_o the_o great_a cause_n be_v the_o three_o which_o be_v a_o love_n and_o sweetness_n conceive_v of_o this_o life_n the_o good_n and_o commodity_n of_o the_o same_o wherewith_o who_o so_o be_v possess_v it_o can_v not_o be_v avoid_v but_o unto_o he_o the_o very_a remembrance_n of_o death_n which_o take_v from_o he_o that_o he_o love_v must_v be_v sour_a &_o bitter_a as_o the_o scripture_n say_v to_o say_v somewhat_o to_o these_o three_o thing_n which_o make_v life_n sweet_a &_o death_n sour_a be_v the_o three_o part_n of_o my_o matter_n which_o i_o promise_v to_o entreat_v of_o and_o for_o the_o first_o which_o be_v a_o natural_a weakness_n engender_v of_o itself_o the_o fear_n of_o death_n we_o can_v not_o say_v it_o have_v no_o power_n in_o we_o mortal_a man_n sith_o christ_n our_o patron_n be_v more_o than_o man_n confess_v to_o have_v some_o feel_v of_o it_o in_o himself_o but_o if_o we_o consider_v that_o he_o be_v weak_a to_o make_v we_o strong_a who_o give_v the_o onset_n &_o make_v the_o conquest_n of_o death_n &_o weakness_n &_o that_o not_o for_o himself_o but_o for_o we_o &_o in_o our_o nature_n say_v afterward_o to_o we_o be_v bold_a &_o fear_v not_o i_o have_v make_v a_o conquest_n of_o the_o world_n and_o in_o he_o have_v by_o take_v on_o he_o our_o nature_n marvellous_o join_v &_o incorporate_v we_o unto_o he_o so_o that_o by_o grace_n &_o participation_n y_fw-fr be_v true_a in_o we_o which_o by_o perfection_n of_o nature_n be_v true_a in_o he_o they_o find_v we_o that_o this_o weakness_n remain_v not_o as_o before_o in_o his_o force_n but_o be_v enforce_v &_o countervail_v by_o a_o strength_n give_v we_o beside_o ourselves_o which_o because_o we_o shall_v firm_o believe_v not_o to_o be_v imagine_v or_o only_o in_o word_n but_o true_a &_o in_o deed_n god_n have_v show_v it_o by_o the_o example_n of_o thousand_o of_o his_o martyr_n not_o fly_v as_o before_o be_v say_v but_o desire_v death_n not_o fear_v but_o contemn_v it_o triumph_v in_o torment_n conquer_a in_o weakness_n not_o say_v sad_a &_o heavy_a be_v my_o heart_n until_o death_n be_v past_a but_o i_o desire_v to_o be_v in_o the_o feel_v to_o begin_v to_o live_v sweet_a be_v the_o torture_n cold_a be_v the_o fire_n dull_a be_v the_o axe_n for_o what_o be_v there_o in_o death_n dreadful_a
