meet_a parson_n they_o know_v he_o not_o for_o they_o never_o see_v he_o &_o yet_o he_o have_v be_v their_o parson_n 20._o year_n at_o the_o least_z omen_n such_o be_v pope-like_a parson_n for_o they_o feed_v their_o flock_n neither_o bodily_a nor_o ghostly_a because_o they_o will_v be_v sure_a they_o will_v not_o fulfil_v the_o meaning_n of_o christ_n in_o feed_v his_o sheep_n &_o therefore_o they_o do_v not_o love_n christ_n but_o at_o the_o last_z &_o terrible_a day_n of_o judgement_n if_o christ_n shall_v hate_v &_o reject_v they_o because_o they_o love_v he_o not_o &_o then_o send_v they_o into_o hell_n fire_n to_o burn_v in_o torment_n for_o ever_o they_o they_o will_v find_v that_o these_o be_v dear_a benefire_n &_o that_o it_o have_v be_v better_a to_o have_v feed_v their_o flock_n than_o to_o have_v famish_v their_o flock_n &_o will_v wish_v then_o rather_o to_o have_v preach_v to_o their_o parishioner_n without_o profit_n than_o to_o have_v profit_n of_o they_o without_o preach_v but_o they_o it_o will_v be_v too_o late_o to_o will_n or_o wish_v siuqila_n many_o of_o our_o parson_n feed_v their_o flock_n a_o little_a better_o for_o perhaps_o they_o will_v lie_v at_o their_o benefice_n 2._o or_o 3._o month_n and_o at_o a_o other_o as_o long_o and_o thus_o they_o will_v be_v sure_a to_o feed_v they_o all_o omen_n yea_o but_o not_o all_o at_o once_o siuqila_n i_o do_v not_o say_v so_o omen_n but_o who_o shall_v preach_v to_o the_o rest_n of_o his_o flock_n in_o his_o absence_n siuqila_n he_o feed_v they_o so_o well_o before_o that_o they_o may_v farrye_v a_o while_n he_o will_v feed_v they_o when_o he_o come_v to_o they_o again_o which_o perhaps_o will_v be_v within_o half_a a_o year_n or_o a_o twelvemonth_n omen_n the_o parson_n will_v feed_v his_o own_o belly_n often_o i_o warrant_v he_o for_o he_o will_v be_v sure_a to_o eat_v once_o or_o twice_o every_o day_n at_o the_o jest_n for_o he_o know_v full_a well_o that_o if_o his_o body_n shall_v be_v without_o food_n but_o two_o or_o three_o day_n it_o will_v be_v in_o danger_n of_o famish_v then_o can_v the_o parson_n think_v that_o the_o soul_n of_o his_o flock_n can_v be_v half_o a_o year_n or_o a_o twelumoneth_n without_o food_n and_o not_o in_o danger_n of_o perish_v if_o the_o body_n be_v sick_a never_o so_o little_a the_o physician_n must_v be_v still_o with_o it_o to_o give_v it_o such_o medicine_n as_o be_v requisite_a for_o the_o health_n thereof_o and_o may_v the_o soul_n then_o which_o be_v always_o sick_a for_o every_o sin_n that_o be_v commit_v be_v a_o sore_a and_o sickness_n to_o the_o soul_n be_v without_o her_o physician_n half_o a_o year_n or_o a_o twelvemonth_n the_o preacher_n of_o god_n word_n which_o be_v the_o only_a medicine_n that_o heal_v the_o sickness_n of_o the_o soul_n the_o soul_n have_v as_o much_o need_n of_o her_o daily_a food_n for_o fear_n of_o perish_v as_o the_o body_n have_v need_n of_o meat_n and_o drink_v for_o fear_v of_o famish_v nay_o the_o soul_n have_v a_o great_a deal_n more_o need_n to_o be_v feed_v for_o fear_n of_o spiritual_a death_n than_o the_o body_n have_v for_o fear_n of_o worldly_a death_n for_o if_o the_o body_n die_v for_o want_n of_o food_n it_o shall_v rise_v again_o yea_o and_o live_v for_o ever_o if_o it_o die_v in_o christ_n but_o if_o the_o soul_n die_v for_o want_n of_o food_n it_o shall_v die_v eternal_o and_o lie_v in_o hell_n which_o be_v call_v the_o second_o death_n therefore_o these_o parson_n be_v marvelous_a careless_a that_o feed_v their_o body_n so_o diligent_o which_o must_v needs_o die_v at_o length_n for_o all_o their_o feed_n and_o suffer_v their_o soul_n and_o the_o soul_n of_o their_o flock_n for_o want_v of_o feed_n to_o die_v everlasting_o which_o shall_v live_v for_o ever_o if_o they_o will_v feed_v they_o but_o if_o such_o péevish_a parson_n shall_v be_v constrain_v to_o feed_v their_o own_o belly_n no_o after_o with_o meat_n and_o drink_v this_o mark_v this_o than_o they_o feed_v their_o flock_n with_o spiritual_a food_n then_o many_o of_o your_o parson_n will_v have_v few_o benefice_n than_o they_o have_v and_o preach_v a_o great_a deal_n oft_o to_o their_o flock_n than_o they_o do_v siuqila_n you_o may_v be_v sure_a of_o that_o if_o that_o shall_v be_v so_o they_o will_v be_v afraid_a to_o have_v one_o benefice_n lest_o they_o shall_v be_v constrain_v to_o fast_a when_o they_o will_v fain_o feed_v o_o mad_a man_n more_o brutish_a than_o beast_n and_o more_o senseless_a than_o swine_n that_o the_o love_n of_o their_o belly_n can_v make_v they_o do_v more_o for_o their_o flock_n than_o the_o love_n of_o christ_n can_v do_v which_o have_v shed_v his_o heart_n blood_n for_o they_o to_o save_v they_o from_o hell_n and_o to_o bring_v they_o to_o heaven_n these_o great_a benefice_a parson_n do_v know_v very_o well_o that_o one_o flock_n of_o sheep_n be_v enough_o and_o enough_o for_o one_o shepherd_n to_o look_v too_o and_o keep_v safe_o then_o four_o or_o five_o flock_n be_v too_o many_o for_o if_o the_o shepherd_n be_v not_o daily_o with_o his_o flock_n and_o look_v very_o diligent_o to_o they_o they_o will_v quick_o go_v astray_o and_o be_v in_o danger_n to_o be_v devour_v nay_o will_v not_o some_o of_o they_o myscarrie_v &_o be_v in_o danger_n though_o the_o shepherd_n be_v still_o with_o they_o yes_o be_v sure_a then_o if_o the_o shepherd_n have_v three_o or_o four_o flock_n of_o sheep_n in_o sundry_a place_n he_o can_v not_o be_v still_o with_o every_o flock_n for_o though_o he_o be_v continual_o with_o one_o flock_n yet_o two_o or_o three_o of_o his_o flock_n must_v needs_o be_v without_o a_o shepherd_n which_o shepherdlesse_a flock_n must_v needs_o go_v astray_o and_o many_o of_o they_o in_o danger_n to_o perish_v for_o some_o of_o those_o sheep_n perish_v that_o have_v their_o shepherd_n still_o with_o they_o then_o many_o of_o they_o be_v like_a to_o perish_v that_o have_v at_o all_o no_o shepherd_n with_o they_o thus_o if_o one_o shepherd_n be_v scant_o sufficient_a for_o the_o keep_v safe_a of_o one_o flock_n of_o sheep_n than_o one_o spiritual_a shepherd_n can_v be_v but_o sufficient_a to_o keep_v one_o flock_n of_o people_n which_o be_v chryste_n sheep_n and_o if_o it_o be_v requisite_a that_o every_o flock_n of_o sheep_n have_v a_o shepherd_n continual_o to_o look_v to_o they_o for_o fear_n of_o the_o wolf_n than_o it_o be_v much_o more_o requisite_a that_o every_o flock_n of_o chryste_n sheep_n shall_v have_v a_o spiritual_a shepherd_n or_o pastor_n always_o with_o they_o for_o fear_n of_o the_o devil_n true_a very_o true_a but_o how_o can_v that_o parson_n be_v continual_o with_o his_o flock_n that_o have_v more_o benefice_n than_o one_o as_o before_o be_v sufficient_o prove_v omen_n sure_o siuqila_n you_o have_v speak_v both_o wise_o &_o true_o i_o perceive_v if_o you_o be_v of_o that_o function_n as_o i_o think_v you_o be_v not_o you_o will_v not_o burden_n yourself_o with_o many_o benefice_n siuqila_n if_o i_o shall_v addict_v myself_o that_o way_n as_o advise_o &_o circumspect_o as_o many_o run_v into_o it_o both_o bold_o and_o rashlye_a i_o will_v rather_o desire_v much_o learning_n to_o feed_v my_o flock_n than_o great_a live_n to_o pamper_v myself_o but_o many_o now_o a_o day_n have_v rather_o have_v a_o live_n to_o loiter_v than_o knowledge_n to_o preach_v well_o now_o let_v we_o leave_v our_o greedy_a parson_n that_o have_v never_o enough_o of_o spiritual_a live_n and_o talk_v of_o your_o gentleman_n that_o be_v content_a with_o their_o own_o temporal_a live_n i_o pray_v you_o sir_n do_v they_o enhance_v their_o rent_n with_o you_o omen_n sure_o the_o tenante_n with_o we_o know_v not_o what_o enhaun●ing_n of_o rent_n do_v mean_a neither_o the_o landlord_n have_v any_o such_o thing_n in_o their_o mind_n the_o land_n with_o we_o be_v no_o hire_n rent_v than_o they_o be_v four_o or_o five_o thousand_o year_n since_o siuqila_n i_o much_o muse_v thereof_o the_o rent_n be_v marvellous_o enhance_a with_o us._n omen_n why_o shall_v you_o so_o it_o be_v not_o to_o be_v muse_v at_o never_o a_o whit_n if_o your_o gentleman_n and_o landlord_n be_v content_a with_o a_o competent_a live_n temperate_a feed_n and_o moderate_a go_v as_o we_o be_v than_o they_o will_v enhance_v their_o rent_n no_o more_o than_o they_o do_v but_o i_o perceive_v that_o many_o of_o your_o gentleman_n &_o landlord_n have_v such_o ambitious_a mind_n so_o desirous_a of_o honour_n be_v so_o prodigal_a in_o spend_v so_o excessive_a in_o feed_n and_o so_o princely_a in_o go_v that_o it_o be_v no_o marvel_v though_o their_o ancient_a rich_a farmer_n and_o good_a housekeeping_n tenant_n be_v
