therefore_o man_n shall_v leave_v father_n and_o mother_n and_o shall_v stick_v to_o his_o wife_n if_o there_o be_v great_a difference_n between_o the_o nature_n of_o the_o man_n and_o of_o the_o

not_o power_n of_o she_o but_o the_o husband_n m._n if_o there_o be_v such_o communion_n and_o conjunction_n of_o body_n there_o be_v no_o doubt_n but_o it_o be_v also_o of_o all_o good_a &_o evil_a

there_o be_v none_o other_o thing_n in_o we_o but_o the_o nature_n of_o the_o alliance_n and_o communion_n which_o we_o have_v with_o he_o through_o faith_n bring_v it_o for_o otherwise_o there_o shall_v be_v no_o perfect_a communion_n and_o so_o the_o alliance_n shall_v not_o be_v full_a if_o there_o be_v no_o participation_n of_o good_a and_o evil_a such_o as_o it_o shall_v and_o ought_v to_o be_v among_o those_o which_o be_v ally_v m._n then_o on_o the_o contrary_a it_o must_v be_v follow_v the_o nature_n of_o this_o communion_n and_o alliance_n that_o we_o receive_v of_o jesus_n

be_v great_o to_o our_o advantage_n p._n it_o be_v whole_o to_o our_o advantage_n and_o therefore_o it_o shall_v so_o much_o the_o more_o inflame_v we_o in_o the_o love_n of_o god_n and_o ravish_v and_o carry_v we_o away_o in_o admiration_n of_o his_o goodness_n &_o of_o jesus_n christ_n our_o lord_n and_o of_o that_o most_o excessive_a love_n wherewith_o he_o have_v love_v us._n m._n that_o

very_a same_o and_o because_o it_o be_v make_v by_o the_o power_n of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n we_o will_v speak_v more_o large_o of_o it_o when_o we_o shall_v speak_v of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n and_o of_o the_o church_n how_o that_o jesus_n christ_n can_v not_o be_v the_o saviour_n of_o mankind_n unless_o he_o have_v as_o well_o a_o humane_a soul_n as_o a_o humane_a body_n m._n i_o understand_v now_o well_o by_o that_o which_o thou_o have_v expound_v unto_o i_o concern_v the_o humane_a nature_n of_o jesus_n christ_n that_o we_o can_v have_v no_o salvation_n by_o he_o if_o he_o have_v not_o a_o very_a body_n of_o our_o flesh_n and_o substance_n and_o that_o we_o be_v flesh_n of_o his_o flesh_n and_o bone_n of_o his_o bone_n and_o except_o we_o have_v such_o alliance_n with_o he_o as_o there_o be_v between_o the_o husband_n &_o the_o wife_n but_o i_o will_v glad_o that_o thou_o do_v show_v i_o something_o more_o plain_o the_o cause_n for_o the_o which_o it_o be_v also_o requisite_a for_o our_o salvation_n that_o jesus_n christ_n have_v a_o humane_a soul_n as_o well_o as_o a_o humane_a body_n p._n even_o as_o we_o can_v not_o be_v save_v if_o he_o have_v not_o suffer_v in_o our_o humane_a flesh_n and_o bear_v the_o pain_n for_o we_o which_o we_o have_v deserve_v by_o our_o sin_n it_o be_v even_o the_o like_o concern_v the_o soul_n m._n for_o what_o cause_n p._n for_o because_o that_o if_o he_o have_v suffer_v but_o in_o our_o body_n &_o in_o our_o flesh_n he_o shall_v not_o then_o have_v satisfy_v but_o in_o our_o flesh_n and_o in_o our_o body_n and_o for_o they_o only_o and_o not_o for_o the_o soul_n and_o so_o shall_v it_o have_v come_v to_o pass_v the_o body_n shall_v be_v save_v and_o not_o the_o

work_n of_o man_n shall_v be_v weigh_v and_o measure_v how_o that_o the_o la_o of_o god_n be_v transgress_v not_o only_o in_o do_v that_o which_o be_v forbid_v by_o it_o but_o also_o in_o leving_fw-mi that_o undo_n which_o be_v therein_o command_v and_o how_o that_o those_o good_a work_n which_o we_o do_v be_v not_o able_a to_o satisfy_v for_o they_o which_o we_o ought_v to_o do_v and_o do_v not_o ne_o yet_o for_o those_o which_o we_o do_v against_o the_o will_n of_o god._n t._n then_o do_v it_o follow_v that_o whosoever_o shall_v do_v that_o which_o shall_v be_v forbid_v of_o god_n or_o shall_v leave_v undo_v that_o which_o he_o do_v command_v he_o the_o same_o deserve_v condemnation_n on_o the_o other_o side_n he_o that_o shall_v abstain_v from_o that_o which_o he_o have_v forbid_v and_o shall_v do_v that_o which_o he_o have_v command_v the_o same_o shall_v receive_v the_o praise_n and_o commendation_n of_o a_o good_a &_o faithful_a servant_n effect_n d._n these_o two_o point_n that_o thou_o touch_v be_v right_o well_o worthy_a to_o be_v note_v for_o there_o be_v some_o that_o think_v that_o they_o have_v sufficient_o fulfil_v the_o law_n of_o god_n if_o that_o they_o have_v refrain_v from_o those_o thing_n which_o be_v therein_o forbid_v yea_o and_o if_o it_o have_v be_v do_v but_o only_o in_o outward_a appearance_n without_o lay_v of_o hand_n with_o a_o prompt_a courage_n to_o those_o thing_n which_o be_v command_v they_o on_o the_o other_o side_n there_o be_v other_o which_o think_v that_o they_o may_v the_o more_fw-it lawful_o dispense_v with_o themselves_o to_o do_v many_o thing_n that_o be_v forbid_v in_o the_o law_n when_o they_o have_v do_v some_o little_a portion_n of_o those_o which_o be_v command_v and_o think_v these_o to_o be_v a_o recompense_n for_o the_o other_o but_o we_o must_v needs_o walk_v in_o all_o other_o manner_n of_o simplicity_n before_o god_n &_o must_v put_v in_o use_n that_o which_o jesus_n christ_n have_v say_v it_o behove_v to_o do_v this_o and_o not_o to_o leave_v the_o other_o undo_v place_n for_o here_o it_o ought_v to_o have_v better_a place_n than_o in_o any_o where_o else_o it_o behove_v to_o do_v that_o which_o be_v command_v and_o to_o refrain_v from_o that_o which_o be_v forbid_v for_o he_o that_o command_v and_o he_o that_o forbid_v be_v always_o one_o lord_n who_o will_v not_o suffer_v his_o majesty_n to_o be_v more_o dishonour_v of_o the_o one_o part_n than_o of_o the_o other_o therefore_o when_o thou_o do_v some_o part_n of_o that_o which_o be_v command_v thou_o think_v not_o by_o that_o little_a well_o do_v which_o thou_o have_v do_v on_o the_o one_o side_n to_o have_v recompense_v the_o great_a evil_n which_o thou_o have_v commit_v on_o the_o other_o side_n for_o if_o thou_o have_v do_v any_o thing_n well_o thou_o have_v do_v thy_o duty_n and_o have_v do_v nothing_o else_o yea_o and_o that_o which_o more_o be_v thou_o have_v not_o do_v all_o that_o how_o may_v thou_o they_o recompense_v the_o evil_n which_o thou_o have_v commit_v in_o do_v that_o which_o be_v forbid_v thou_o by_o this_o little_a good_a which_o thou_o have_v do_v when_o that_o same_o itself_o be_v not_o

how_o that_o it_o be_v not_o sufficient_a to_o do_v outward_o the_o work_n which_o god_n command_v if_o that_o they_o be_v not_o do_v to_o the_o intent_n and_o to_o the_o very_a same_o purpose_n for_o the_o which_o god_n do_v command_v they_o &_o how_o great_o hypocrisy_n displease_v god._n d._n on_o the_o other_o part_n out_o when_o thou_o do_v the_o work_n which_o god_n command_v thou_o must_v

thou_o do_v for_o the_o honour_n of_o god_n and_o for_o the_o love_n thou_o bear_v to_o he_o or_o to_o thy_o neighbour_n for_o his_o sake_n thou_o make_v of_o a_o good_a work_n a_o evil_a work_n and_o

work_n be_v no_o more_o a_o work_n of_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n for_o so_o much_o as_o it_o be_v not_o do_v in_o truth_n but_o in_o lie_n for_o all_o hypocrisy_n be_v lie_n for_o somuch_o as_o it_o be_v nothing_o else_o but_o falsehood_n feign_v and_o dissimulation_n which_o have_v a_o other_o show_n outward_o than_o the_o troth_n of_o the_o thing_n have_v inward_o now_o all_o lie_n proceed_v from_o the_o devil_n the_o work_n then_o which_o be_v do_v in_o lie_n be_v of_o the_o devil_n and_o not_o of_o god_n wherefore_o it_o can_v much_o better_o please_v god_n than_o do_v the_o troth_n which_o the_o devil_n speak_v to_o cover_v his_o lie_n with_o and_o to_o transfigure_v himself_o into_o a_o angel_n of_o light_n and_o that_o all_o the_o work_n do_v that_o ever_o he_o do_v how_o

for_o himself_o and_o have_v regard_n neither_o to_o the_o honour_n of_o god_n nor_o to_o the_o profit_n of_o any_o creature_n wherefore_o he_o be_v never_o more_o perilous_a than_o when_o he_o have_v the_o great_a show_n of_o well_o do_v for_o than_o it_o be_v that_o he_o do_v most_o dishonour_n god_n and_o do_v great_a hurt_n to_o man_n because_o he_o be_v more_o cover_v and_o disguise_v &_o
