of_o this_o life_n god_n grant_v he_o a_o joyful_a resurrection_n which_o be_v the_o most_o orderly_a and_o plain_a form_n of_o pray_v for_o the_o dead_a 3_o i_o say_v three_o if_o one_o say_v god_n have_v mercy_n upon_o the_o soul_n be_v well_o instruct_v for_o the_o true_a sense_n thereof_o it_o be_v not_o to_o be_v reprove_v though_o the_o other_o phrase_n and_o manner_n of_o pray_v ought_v rather_o to_o be_v use_v especial_o in_o these_o day_n when_o the_o latter_a kind_n be_v common_o abuse_v for_o albeit_o the_o holy_a and_o ancient_a father_n when_o they_o pray_v for_o rest_n &_o mercy_n to_o the_o dead_a understand_v nothing_o else_o but_o the_o resurrection_n of_o the_o body_n and_o the_o complement_n that_o redound_v to_o the_o soul_n by_o union_n of_o the_o same_o yet_o have_v the_o papist_n teach_v and_o this_o day_n teach_v the_o people_n to_o understand_v thereby_o the_o mitigation_n of_o purgatory_n pain_n which_o the_o soul_n of_o the_o dead_a enjoy_v as_o they_o gross_o imagine_v either_o by_o prayer_n of_o the_o faithful_a or_o by_o mass_n trental_n and_o diriges_fw-la or_o by_o the_o pope_n pardon_n so_o that_o the_o evil_a of_o this_o manner_n of_o pray_v consist_v not_o in_o the_o phrase_n and_o prayer_n itself_o but_o in_o the_o erronius_a affection_n of_o the_o party_n that_o so_o pray_v for_o the_o better_a understanding_n whereof_o we_o must_v observe_v 1_o first_o that_o it_o be_v lawful_a to_o pray_v for_o such_o thing_n as_o be_v very_o certain_a but_o not_o yet_o accomplish_v or_o bring_v to_o pass_v and_o consequent_o that_o it_o be_v lawful_a to_o pray_v for_o the_o resurrection_n of_o the_o body_n as_o also_o that_o the_o soul_n in_o the_o second_o advent_n may_v be_v unite_v again_o to_o the_o body_n that_o so_o the_o faithful_a may_v in_o complete_a manner_n be_v make_v partaker_n of_o the_o vision_n beatifical_a this_o observation_n be_v manifest_a by_o that_o prayer_n which_o our_o saviour_n himself_o pray_v who_o action_n as_o write_v the_o apostle_n be_v our_o instruction_n for_o our_o lord_n jesus_n pray_v for_o the_o salvation_n of_o his_o elect_a who_o neither_o 22._o shall_v nor_o can_v perish_v by_o any_o possibility_n that_o he_o pray_v for_o they_o be_v manifest_a in_o these_o word_n non_fw-la pro_fw-la mundo_fw-la rogo_fw-la sedpro_fw-la his_fw-la quos_fw-la dedisti_fw-la mihi_fw-la quia_fw-la tui_fw-la sunt_fw-la pater_fw-la 12._o sancte_fw-la seruaeos_fw-la in_o nomine_fw-la tuo_fw-la quos_fw-la dedisti_fw-la mihi_fw-la i_o pray_v not_o for_o the_o world_n but_o for_o those_o who_o thou_o have_v give_v i_o because_o they_o be_v thou_o holy_a father_n keep_v they_o in_o thy_o name_n who_o thou_o have_v give_v i_o yea_o the_o very_a elect_a be_v command_v to_o pray_v for_o their_o salvation_n because_o that_o be_v one_o of_o the_o petition_n in_o the_o lord_n prayer_n which_o appertain_v to_o all_o especial_o to_o the_o elect_a and_o that_o the_o elect_v can_v perish_v be_v evident_a by_o this_o testimony_n of_o the_o holy_a gospel_n it_o a_o ut_fw-la in_o errorem_fw-la inducantur_fw-la sifieri_fw-la potest_fw-la etiam_fw-la electi_fw-la 24_o so_o that_o the_o very_o elect_v shall_v be_v seduce_v if_o it_o be_v possible_a 2_o we_o must_v observe_v second_o that_o in_o they_o write_n of_o the_o father_n sin_n be_v often_o take_v for_o the_o corruption_n and_o mortality_n of_o the_o body_n as_o the_o papist_n themselves_o do_v ever_o in_o their_o romish_a pardon_n understand_v by_o sin_n the_o pain_n due_a for_o sin_n which_o observation_n well_o remember_v all_o objection_n out_o of_o the_o father_n touch_v pray_v for_o the_o dead_a may_v be_v answer_v with_o all_o facility_n for_o first_o when_o the_o ancient_a church_n offer_v up_o their_o sacrifice_n of_o thanks_n give_v and_o prayer_n for_o the_o dead_a 2_o and_o second_o when_o the_o father_n do_v desire_v eternal_a rest_n unto_o the_o dead_a they_o desire_v nothing_o less_o then_o that_o such_o soul_n may_v be_v deliver_v out_o of_o purgatory_n or_o have_v remission_n of_o their_o sin_n which_o thing_n i_o will_v prove_v by_o two_o very_a sound_a foundation_n 1_o the_o one_o because_o such_o prayer_n or_o oblation_n be_v make_v for_o those_o who_o not_o only_o as_o the_o father_n believe_v but_o even_o as_o the_o papist_n themselves_o confess_v be_v then_o in_o heaven_n where_o they_o neither_o need_v nor_o can_v be_v relieve_v by_o such_o prayer_n or_o oblation_n 2_o the_o other_o because_o the_o father_n have_v ackowledge_v so_o much_o by_o express_a word_n in_o their_o writing_n 1_o the_o former_a foundation_n be_v evident_a in_o the_o liturgy_n of_o s._n chrisostom_n 1377._o who_o there_o offer_v his_o sacrifice_n of_o thanks_n give_v for_o the_o prophet_n apostle_n martyr_n and_o for_o our_o bless_a lady_n the_o holy_a virgin_n marie_n who_o all_o i_o be_o well_o assure_v the_o papist_n will_v confess_v to_o have_v be_v in_o heaven_n long_o afore_o saint_n chrysostome_n be_v bear_v 2_o the_o second_o foundation_n be_v plain_o confess_v by_o saint_n ambrose_n who_o in_o his_o funeral_n oration_n for_o the_o emperor_n theodosius_n and_o valentinianus_n with_o his_o brother_n satyrus_n both_o confess_v they_o to_o possess_v eternal_a rest_n in_o heaven_n and_o nevertheless_o pray_v for_o eternal_a rest_n unto_o they_o which_o word_n though_o they_o seem_v to_o imply_v manifest_a contradiction_n yet_o be_v they_o no_o less_o exact_a and_o sound_a then_o godly_a and_o easy_a to_o be_v understand_v if_o my_o rehearse_v observation_n be_v well_o mark_v for_o though_o their_o soul_n be_v in_o eternal_a bliss_n that_o be_v in_o heaven_n yet_o neither_o be_v their_o body_n then_o neither_o be_v they_o now_o neither_o shall_v they_o be_v until_o the_o second_o advent_n of_o our_o redeemer_n in_o that_o eternal_a rest_n which_o rest_n that_o valentinianus_n thedosius_n and_o satyrus_n may_v enjoy_v after_o the_o day_n of_o doom_n in_o complete_a manner_n that_o be_v in_o soul_n and_o body_n unite_v in_o perpetual_a union_n sainte_n ambrose_n pray_v so_o instant_o now_o for_o thy_o better_a instruction_n and_o satisfaction_n gentle_a reader_n i_o will_v allege_v saint_n amhrose_n word_n as_o himself_o have_v utter_v they_o of_o his_o brother_n satirus_n he_o say_v thus_o tibi_fw-la nunc_fw-la omnipotens_fw-la deus_fw-la

of_o thy_o priest_n of_o theodosius_n he_o say_v thus_o da_n requiem_n perfectam_fw-la servo_fw-la tuo_fw-la theodosio_n requiem_n illam_fw-la quam_fw-la preparasti_fw-la 52._o sanctis_fw-la tuis_fw-la give_v perfect_a rest_n to_o thy_o servant_n theodosius_n that_o rest_n which_o thou_o have_v prepare_v for_o thy_o saint_n of_o valentinianus_n he_o say_v thus_o 3._o nulla_fw-la

plain_o that_o saint_n ambrose_n both_o offer_a sacrifice_n of_o lawde_a and_o pray_v for_o valentinianus_n theodosius_n and_o satirus_n be_v dead_a let_v we_o now_o proceed_v a_o little_a further_o thus_o say_v saint_n ambrose_n of_o satyrus_n intravit_fw-la in_o regnum_fw-la coelorum_fw-la quoniam_fw-la credidit_fw-la dei_fw-la verbo_fw-la he_o be_v enter_v into_o heaven_n because_o he_o

both_o believe_v purgatory_n and_o receive_v the_o use_n of_o pardon_n general_o so_o long_o as_o there_o be_v no_o care_n of_o purgatory_n no_o man_n seek_v for_o pardon_n for_o of_o it_o depend_v all_o the_o estimation_n that_o we_o have_v of_o pardon_n if_o thou_o take_v away_o purgatory_n to_o what_o end_n shall_v we_o need_v pardon_n for_o if_o their_o be_v no_o purgatory_n we_o shall_v
