whereof_o the_o first_o be_v for_o that_o it_o behove_v they_o too_o be_v meek_a which_o profess_v chryste_n or_o will_v be_v name_v christian_n for_o it_o become_v not_o they_o that_o will_v be_v register_v intoo_o chryste_n household_n too_o be_v cruel_a like_o lion_n raven_a like_o wolf_n wily_a like_o fox_n lecherous_a like_o goat_n filthy_a like_o swine_n or_o too_o show_v themselves_o in_o affection_n like_o too_o other_o wild_a beast_n the_o second_o cause_n be_v for_o that_o like_a as_o sheep_n do_v know_v the_o voice_n of_o their_o own_o shepeherde_n and_o flee_v from_o a_o stranger_n so_o the_o godly_a acknowledge_v chryste_n only_o for_o their_o teacher_n and_o will_v here_o those_o only_a that_o utter_a his_o word_n and_o not_o any_o other_o how_o great_o renown_a so_o ever_o they_o be_v no_o though_o they_o be_v angel_n from_o heaven_n the_o third_o cause_n be_v for_o that_o like_a as_o sheep_n follow_v their_o own_o shepherd_n whither_o so_o ever_o he_o go_v so_o must_v the_o godly_a follow_v christ_n in_o life_n in_o persecution_n and_o in_o glory_n behold_v his_o life_n as_o a_o rule_n too_o lead_v their_o life_n by_o bear_v his_o cross_n through_o

if_o we_o suffer_v with_o he_o we_o shall_v also_o be_v glorify_v with_o he_o hereby_o therefore_o may_v the_o godly_a minister_n of_o y_fw-fr e_o word_n learn_v too_o feed_v christ_n flock_n and_o let_v the_o sheep_n be_v meek_a let_v they_o here_o the_o voice_n of_o their_o shepherd_n only_o and_o let_v they_o follow_v he_o in_o life_n in_o cross_n and_o in_o glory_n the_o third_o thing_n

be_v the_o layer_n of_o this_o séed_n into_o the_o ground_n all_o man_n will_v wonder_v at_o it_o &_o all_o man_n will_v be_v very_o desirous_a too_o know_v this_o seed_n but_o now_o be_v god_n

sow_v above_o all_o other_o the_o other_o thing_n that_o we_o may_v learn_v hereby_o be_v that_o it_o be_v a_o great_a fault_n and_o worthy_a too_o be_v punish_v with_o most_o gréevous_a punishment_n either_o to_o receive_v the_o séed_n of_o the_o sour_a god_n intoo_o a_o ground_n that_o be_v too_o say_v a_o heart_n not_o till_v before_o with_o the_o plough_n of_o the_o law_n or_o when_o it_o be_v
