gift_n and_o grace_n shine_v for_o power_n breed_v reverence_n and_o goodness_n love_n wherefore_o if_o we_o judge_v that_o power_n and_o greatness_n be_v join_v with_o goodness_n and_o temper_v therewithal_o we_o shall_v not_o only_o be_v move_v to_o reverence_v but_o this_o reverence_n also_o will_v engender_v love_n as_o it_o be_v in_o the_o heart_n of_o the_o faithful_a towards_o god_n because_o that_o as_o they_o consider_v he_o almighty_a and_o the_o great_a of_o all_o so_o they_o behold_v he_o most_o wise_a and_o most_o good_a but_o as_o i_o have_v already_o touch_v if_o we_o think_v that_o this_o greatness_n or_o power_n either_o be_v or_o will_v be_v hurtful_a unto_o we_o there_o be_v another_o kind_n of_o reverence_n which_o only_o have_v fear_n that_o breed_v hatred_n as_o it_o be_v in_o they_o that_o consider_v the_o power_n of_o god_n only_o &_o the_o rigour_n of_o his_o judgement_n not_o meditate_v of_o his_o clemency_n and_o benignity_n therefore_o as_o the_o great_a excellency_n which_o in_o all_o thing_n appear_v in_o god_n especial_o in_o power_n wisdom_n and_o goodness_n induce_v we_o to_o reverence_v he_o aright_o prince_n so_o if_o we_o will_v have_v man_n to_o honour_n &_o reverence_v we_o there_o must_v be_v excellent_a virtue_n in_o we_o in_o which_o man_n may_v see_v the_o image_n of_o god_n to_o shine_v that_o so_o he_o may_v be_v honour_v &_o reverence_v in_o we_o &_o we_o in_o he_o for_o therein_o consist_v that_o true_a honour_n &_o that_o true_a reverence_n which_o we_o ought_v to_o seek_v for_o &_o to_o desire_v and_o although_o reverence_n have_v respect_n principal_o to_o the_o divine_a majesty_n at_o the_o name_n of_o which_o every_o knee_n ought_v to_o bow_v and_o to_o those_o superiority_n which_o be_v image_n thereof_o unto_o which_o they_o that_o be_v of_o less_o degree_n estate_n and_o condition_n aught_o to_o give_v honour_n friendship_n &_o service_n nevertheless_o mutual_a reverence_n be_v necessary_a in_o all_o true_a friendship_n aswell_o in_o respect_n of_o the_o party_n belove_a as_o of_o he_o that_o love_v and_o indeed_o we_o see_v how_o that_o true_a friend_n reverence_n and_o honour_v one_o another_o and_o all_o because_o of_o that_o good_a opinion_n which_o they_o have_v conceive_v each_o of_o other_o desert_n concern_v this_o word_n honour_n it_o be_v proper_o a_o token_n whereby_o we_o testify_v that_o we_o judge_v he_o to_o be_v endue_v with_o virtue_n who_o we_o honour_v wherefore_o as_o the_o consideration_n of_o virtue_n breed_v honour_n majesty_n so_o honour_n breed_v reverence_n and_o then_o honour_n and_o reverence_n breed_v majesty_n which_o be_v the_o high_a degree_n of_o honour_n and_o increase_v continual_o according_a as_o those_o virtue_n and_o good_a thing_n excel_v which_o induce_v we_o to_o honour_v they_o for_o if_o the_o virtue_n be_v mean_a we_o honour_v they_o with_o a_o more_o simple_a honour_n if_o great_a we_o add_v thereunto_o reverence_n and_o then_o majesty_n be_v that_o honour_n which_o can_v be_v give_v to_o the_o great_a of_o all_o and_o as_o this_o affection_n of_o honour_n be_v in_o our_o heart_n we_o show_v it_o forth_o by_o diverse_a outward_a sign_n whereby_o we_o signify_v and_o testify_v that_o we_o acknowledge_v their_o greatness_n and_o excellency_n who_o we_o honour_n and_o that_o we_o submit_v ourselves_o thereunto_o therefore_o the_o more_o humble_a and_o modest_a a_o man_n be_v the_o ready_a he_o will_v be_v to_o yield_v reverence_n and_o honour_n to_o they_o unto_o who_o it_o be_v due_a contrariwise_o the_o more_o drunken_a a_o man_n be_v with_o the_o love_n of_o himself_o the_o more_o he_o will_v presume_v of_o himself_o and_o the_o great_a this_o presumption_n be_v in_o he_o the_o less_o will_v he_o desire_v that_o another_o shall_v be_v more_o excellent_a than_o himself_o and_o will_v be_v the_o hardly_o persuade_v to_o believe_v it_o be_v so_o therefore_o he_o will_v hardly_o

that_o as_o pride_n or_o humility_n abound_v in_o we_o god_n our_o superior_n and_o friend_n shall_v be_v more_a or_o less_o honour_v by_o us._n as_o for_o those_o sign_n whereby_o we_o testify_v this_o honour_n and_o reverence_n we_o be_v to_o note_v that_o they_o be_v many_o according_a to_o the_o diversity_n of_o nation_n and_o country_n and_o of_o their_o manner_n reverence_n most_o common_o we_o use_v to_o bend_v the_o knee_n in_o testimony_n that_o we_o abase_v and_o submit_v ourselves_o to_o those_o unto_o who_o we_o do_v this_o honour_n likewise_o we_o uncover_v the_o head_n which_o be_v a_o token_n of_o servitude_n according_a to_o the_o custom_n of_o the_o grecian_n and_o of_o the_o roman_n there_o be_v many_o other_o such_o like_a sign_n as_o to_o rise_v up_o to_o give_v place_n to_o accompany_v to_o salute_v and_o infinite_a other_o which_o will_v be_v too_o long_o to_o rehearse_v and_o without_o profit_n all_o which_o we_o call_v bear_v of_o honour_n and_o reverence_n or_o yield_v of_o reverence_n wherefore_o although_o god_n look_v chief_o to_o that_o which_o be_v within_o and_o not_o to_o that_o which_o be_v without_o yet_o will_v he_o have_v we_o by_o external_a sign_n to_o declare_v that_o honour_n which_o we_o owe_v and_o bear_v unto_o he_o and_o by_o they_o to_o yield_v he_o homage_n thus_o he_o require_v that_o we_o shall_v testify_v our_o faith_n and_o our_o love_n towards_o he_o by_o confession_n of_o mouth_n and_o by_o all_o good_a work_n that_o there_o may_v be_v always_o a_o agreement_n between_o the_o body_n and_o the_o soul_n between_o the_o heart_n mouth_n and_o hand_n and_o between_o the_o workmaster_n that_o work_v and_o his_o instrument_n and_o work_v to_o the_o end_n that_o the_o one_o may_v be_v know_v by_o the_o other_o for_o if_o the_o outward_a sign_n agree_v not_o with_o the_o heart_n we_o make_v they_o false_a witness_n as_o the_o tongue_n be_v when_o it_o lie_v for_o they_o bear_v witness_v to_o that_o which_o be_v not_o which_o be_v right_a hypocrisy_n displease_v god_n and_o man_n therefore_o we_o must_v beware_v of_o this_o vice_n and_o take_v heed_n that_o we_o make_v no_o other_o outward_a show_n then_o will_v stand_v with_o the_o affection_n of_o the_o heart_n now_o have_v speak_v of_o honour_n reverence_n and_o majesty_n by_o reason_n of_o that_o conjunction_n which_o they_o have_v with_o love_n as_o also_o of_o favour_n and_o grace_n compassion_n it_o remain_v now_o that_o we_o shall_v speak_v somewhat_o of_o mercy_n and_o compassion_n see_v that_o also_o have_v great_a

it_o and_o this_o we_o call_v also_o pity_n and_o compassion_n now_o because_o this_o affection_n move_v we_o to_o aid_v succour_n and_o to_o do_v good_a to_o they_o that_o be_v afflict_v as_o also_o to_o pardon_v such_o as_o have_v offend_v we_o therefore_o mercy_n be_v often_o take_v in_o the_o holy_a scripture_n for_o aid_n succour_n favour_n grace_n beneficence_n good_a will_n benefit_v

bare_a unto_o he_o to_o confound_v the_o slanderer_n and_o to_o propound_v to_o every_o one_o in_o the_o person_n of_o his_o servant_n job_n a_o example_n and_o pattern_n of_o true_a fear_n love_n of_o true_a love_n of_o true_a faith_n and_o of_o true_a patience_n we_o see_v then_o that_o there_o be_v two_o sort_n of_o hire_a love_n because_o it_o may_v be_v such_o not_o only_o in_o respect_n of_o he_o that_o receive_v a_o benefit_n but_o of_o he_o also_o that_o bestow_v it_o when_o he_o do_v it_o for_o the_o cause_n aforesaid_a but_o he_o that_o do_v good_a only_o of_o charity_n and_o love_n have_v no_o such_o scope_n but_o look_v only_o to_o the_o good_a which_o he_o delight_v to_o communicate_v to_o other_o in_o respect_n of_o that_o goodness_n which_o be_v in_o himself_o therefore_o he_o have_v a_o more_o sure_a and_o excellent_a beginning_n of_o his_o love_n namely_o his_o own_o goodness_n and_o will_n than_o he_o have_v that_o receive_v the_o good_a who_o love_n begin_v at_o need_n and_o want_v that_o love_n also_o which_o be_v ground_v upon_o goodness_n go_v on_o more_o easy_o and_o with_o great_a courage_n from_o good_a to_o better_v then_o that_o which_o come_v from_o necessity_n proceed_v to_o good_a for_o he_o that_o do_v good_a impart_v the_o same_o frank_o of_o his_o own_o good_a will_n because_o he_o will_v do_v so_o and_o therefore_o it_o redound_v to_o his_o great_a honour_n but_o he_o that_o receive_v a_o good_a turn_n take_v it_o because_o he_o have_v need_n of_o it_o and_o therefore_o he_o must_v acknowledge_v himself_o bind_v to_o his_o benefactor_n for_o this_o cause_n he_o be_v somewhat_o ashamed_a of_o his_o need_n and_o want_v for_o as_o saint_n paul_n witness_v according_a to_o the_o say_n of_o jesus_n christ_n it_o be_v a_o bless_a thing_n to_o give_v rather_o than_o to_o receive_v 35._o therefore_o that_o may_v well_o be_v say_v in_o this_o respect_n which_o be_v common_o speak_v namely_o that_o although_o love_v be_v of_o the_o nature_n of_o fire_n which_o always_o mount_v upward_o ascend_v yet_o do_v it_o descend_v but_o never_o ascend_v for_o father_n and_o mother_n always_o love_v their_o child_n yea_o their_o child_n child_n better_v then_o their_o child_n love_v they_o the_o like_a may_v be_v say_v of_o other_o that_o be_v in_o the_o place_n of_o parent_n and_o by_o a_o great_a reason_n this_o may_v be_v speak_v of_o the_o love_n of_o god_n our_o father_n towards_o we_o as_o also_o of_o the_o love_n of_o christ_n jesus_n for_o he_o do_v not_o only_o love_v we_o before_o we_o love_v he_o yea_o even_o then_o when_o we_o be_v yet_o his_o enemy_n but_o now_o also_o we_o come_v far_o short_a of_o lovi●●_n he_o as_o he_o love_v us._n therefore_o he_o be_v call_v by_o saint_n john_n 8._o not_o only_o love_v and_o charitable_a but_o even_o love_v itself_o for_o as_o he_o be_v the_o creator_n of_o all_o thing_n so_o he_o love_v perfect_v and_o preseve_v they_o all_o and_o turn_v they_o unto_o himself_o love._n but_o among_o all_o other_o thing_n which_o draw_v love_n nothing_o be_v of_o great_a force_n than_o love_n itself_o for_o as_o one_o fire_n draw_v another_o so_o be_v it_o with_o love_n for_o one_o draw_v and_o engender_v another_o therefore_o if_o we_o will_v be_v love_v we_o ourselves_o must_v love_v but_o when_o the_o contrary_a fall_v out_o namee_o that_o we_o be_v hate_v of_o they_o towards_o who_o we_o be_v well_o affect_v it_o be_v because_o he_o that_o be_v love_v do_v not_o know_v nor_o feel_v the_o love_n that_o be_v bear_v he_o for_o likeness_n have_v

to_o love_n love_n and_o why_o hatred_n take_v deep_a root_n in_o our_o heart_n then_o love_n be_v because_o hatred_n find_v a_o better_a soil_n there_o and_o a_o more_o apt_a foundation_n to_o be_v
