draw_v away_o by_o his_o own_o lust_n and_o entice_v 1.14_o in_o which_o word_n the_o apostle_n well_o describe_v this_o temptation_n against_o which_o we_o pray_v for_o it_o consist_v of_o two_o part_n 1_o our_o concupiscence_n draw_v we_o away_o from_o the_o rule_n of_o god_n law_n and_o the_o obedience_n of_o it_o as_o in_o the_o first_o of_o the_o angel_n that_o sin_v they_o be_v draw_v away_o from_o that_o content_a that_o shall_v have_v establish_v they_o in_o the_o like_n of_o their_o high_a and_o glorious_a creation_n by_o entertain_v a_o aspire_a sublimation_n of_o themselves_o to_o a_o equality_n with_o god_n whereas_o the_o condition_n of_o their_o creation_n shall_v have_v be_v a_o law_n to_o they_o to_o have_v repose_v they_o on_o the_o providence_n of_o their_o maker_n so_o in_o the_o temptation_n of_o euah_n the_o serpent_n begin_v with_o she_o to_o question_v the_o law_n of_o the_o forbid_a fruit_n and_o to_o move_v doubt_n concern_v the_o equity_n of_o that_o law_n and_o ever_o since_o our_o concupiscence_n corrupt_v with_o original_a impurity_n resist_v the_o law_n of_o god_n so_o far_o as_o the_o law_n against_o sin_n do_v become_v a_o occasion_n of_o sin_v 2_o this_o concupiscence_n entice_v to_o do_v evil_a for_o so_o the_o angel_n be_v divert_v from_o the_o content_a in_o the_o law_n of_o their_o creation_n be_v entice_v to_o that_o sin_n of_o rebellion_n which_o lose_v they_o heaven_n and_o our_o mother_n euah_n see_v the_o fruit_n be_v fair_a good_a to_o eat_v and_o to_o be_v desire_v for_o the_o knowledge_n of_o good_a and_o evil_a be_v entice_v to_o eat_v thereof_o and_o ever_o since_o after_o we_o be_v once_o draw_v away_o from_o god_n and_o the_o obedience_n of_o his_o law_n we_o be_v entice_v by_o our_o own_o concupiscence_n to_o obey_v the_o law_n of_o our_o member_n give_v our_o concupiscence_n leave_v to_o nest_n in_o we_o to_o conceive_v and_o breed_v and_o bring_v forth_o and_o hatch_v sin_n against_o both_o these_o we_o pray_v that_o we_o may_v neither_o be_v carry_v away_o from_o the_o obedience_n that_o we_o owe_v to_o the_o law_n of_o god_n nor_o cause_v to_o affect_v or_o do_v those_o thing_n which_o be_v contrary_a to_o this_o holy_a law_n the_o rule_n of_o our_o life_n object_n 2_o how_o we_o say_v to_o god_n ne_o nos_fw-la inducas_fw-la some_o object_n what_o need_v this_o petition_n when_o s._n

there_o as_o the_o scope_n of_o the_o place_n do_v declare_v be_v to_o draw_v from_o god_n and_o to_o entice_v to_o do_v evil_a for_o so_o the_o apostle_n do_v express_v himself_o and_o in_o that_o sense_n god_n do_v tempt_v no_o man_n for_o he_o that_o will_v have_v all_o man_n to_o be_v save_v and_o come_v to_o the_o knowledge_n of_o his_o truth_n can_v be_v suspect_v of_o unfaithfulness_n to_o his_o creature_n to_o betray_v he_o to_o his_o ruin_n for_o he_o be_v call_v a_o faithful_a creator_n but_o as_o saint_n cyprian_n say_v that_o potestatem_fw-la adversum_fw-la nos_fw-la 1_o
