of_o every_o thing_n which_o our_o saviour_n suffer_v and_o to_o consider_v attentive_o that_o in_o every_o passage_n of_o his_o passion_n you_o shall_v find_v he_o suffer_v something_o in_o excess_n

be_v necessary_a for_o us._n and_o this_o be_v a_o circumstance_n which_o ought_v to_o be_v very_o well_o consider_v 2._o the_o second_o point_n be_v that_o our_o lord_n suffer_v without_o any_o
