and_o miserable_a and_o be_v subject_a feeble_a and_o infirm_a to_o be_v able_a to_o hold_v in_o itself_o the_o knowledge_n and_o sense_n of_o divine_a thing_n it_o come_v to_o pass_v that_o by_o the_o efficacy_n of_o they_o it_o be_v affright_v and_o become_v vile_a in_o such_o manner_n that_o it_o be_v easy_o overcome_v and_o master_v by_o the_o spirit_n and_o so_o it_o remain_v mortify_v together_o with_o all_o those_o thing_n which_o be_v corrupt_v in_o a_o man_n by_o the_o depravation_n of_o the_o flesh_n and_o because_o the_o remembrance_n of_o the_o call_n by_o god_n be_v very_o efficacious_a in_o man_n with_o the_o knowledge_n and_o sense_n of_o heavenly_a thing_n and_o they_o be_v subject_a frail_a and_o infirm_a i_o understand_v that_o which_o god_n say_v that_o a_o man_n who_o shall_v see_v he_o shall_v not_o be_v able_a to_o sustain_v himself_o with_o his_o mind_n nor_o with_o his_o body_n and_o therefore_o the_o perfect_a vision_n of_o god_n be_v reserve_v to_o the_o just_a in_o eternal_a life_n when_o the_o flesh_n be_v raise_v up_o shall_v be_v a_o subject_a able_a to_o endure_v the_o vision_n of_o god_n in_o this_o mean_a space_n on_o the_o one_o side_n by_o the_o benefit_n of_o god_n the_o flesh_n be_v mortify_v in_o the_o just_a not_o only_o with_o the_o memory_n of_o their_o vocation_n but_o also_o with_o every_o other_o vocation_n and_o sense_n which_o appertain_v to_o the_o thing_n of_o god_n and_o on_o the_o other_o side_n god_n go_v moderate_v in_o they_o these_o knowledge_n and_o these_o sense_n to_o the_o intent_n they_o shall_v not_o come_v to_o nothing_o accommodate_v they_o to_o the_o frailty_n of_o the_o flesh_n as_o we_o temper_v the_o hot_a liquor_n which_o we_o will_v keep_v in_o a_o glass_n vessel_n in_o such_o manner_n as_o the_o liquor_n be_v conserve_v in_o the_o vessel_n without_o break_v the_o glass_n and_o i_o understand_v that_o corporal_a and_o outward_a exercise_n together_o with_o those_o other_o thing_n

another_o which_o may_v make_v they_o to_o make_v progress_n in_o mortification_n in_o such_o manner_n that_o i_o have_v reason_n to_o say_v that_o the_o christian_a business_n be_v not_o knowledge_n but_o experience_n if_o it_o be_v knowledge_n it_o will_v work_v the_o effect_n that_o other_o knowledge_n do_v that_o be_v to_o swell_v up_o and_o make_v proud_a those_o who_o have_v they_o and_o because_o it_o be_v experience_n it_o do_v the_o effect_n which_o other_o experience_n do_v that_o be_v to_o humble_a and_o cast_v on_o the_o ground_n all_o that_o which_o be_v humane_a wisdom_n and_o to_o exalt_v and_o lift_v up_o to_o heaven_n all_o that_o which_o be_v in_o the_o spirit_n i_o understand_v this_o effect_n be_v in_o they_o who_o be_v call_v of_o god_n be_v member_n of_o jesus_n christ_n our_o lord_n consid._n lviii_o eight_o difference_n between_o they_o who_o pretend_v and_o procure_v to_o mortify_v themselves_o with_o their_o proper_a industry_n and_o they_o who_o who_o be_v mortify_v by_o the_o holy_a spirit_n this_o be_v always_o a_o truth_n that_o all_o man_n in_o apply_v themselves_o to_o religion_n as_o well_o unto_o the_o false_a which_o consist_v in_o superstitious_a observation_n as_o unto_o the_o true_a which_o consist_v in_o accept_v the_o grace_n of_o the_o gospel_n of_o christ_n do_v apply_v themselves_o likewise_o to_o mortification_n but_o among_o they_o who_o procure_v to_o mortify_v themselves_o with_o the_o holy_a spirit_n i_o have_v consider_v eight_o notable_a difference_n by_o which_o a_o person_n may_v know_v whether_o he_o mortify_v himself_o by_o his_o own_o industry_n or_o whether_o he_o be_v mortify_v by_o the_o holy_a spirit_n the_o first_o difference_n be_v that_o they_o who_o mortify_v themselves_o with_o their_o own_o proper_a industry_n be_v presumptuous_a &_o ambitious_a know_v their_o own_o proper_a virtue_n in_o their_o mortification_n and_o they_o who_o be_v mortify_v by_o the_o holy_a spirit_n be_v humble_a and_o modest_a not_o know_v any_o proper_a virtue_n of_o their_o own_o in_o their_o mortification_n for_o the_o holy_a spirit_n work_v in_o they_o that_o which_o a_o very_a great_a fever_n do_v in_o a_o man_n i_o will_v say_v that_o as_o by_o the_o presence_n of_o a_o great_a fever_n a_o man_n become_v as_o it_o be_v deprive_v of_o all_o carnal_a desire_n keep_v alive_a only_o the_o desire_n of_o health_n so_o by_o the_o presence_n of_o the_o holy_a spirit_n a_o man_n become_v as_o it_o be_v deprive_v of_o all_o that_o which_o be_v flesh_n keep_v alive_a only_o spiritual_a desire_n the_o second_o difference_n be_v that_o they_o who_o pretend_v to_o mortify_v themselves_o go_v always_o seek_v new_a manner_n and_o new_a invention_n to_o obtain_v mortification_n &_o they_o who_o be_v mortify_v by_o the_o spirit_n embrace_v those_o occasion_n of_o mortification_n which_o be_v offer_v unto_o they_o by_o what_o way_n soever_o they_o come_v persuade_v themselves_o that_o with_o they_o and_o in_o they_o god_n will_v mortify_v they_o the_o three_o difference_n be_v that_o they_o who_o mortify_v themselves_o always_o live_v sad_a and_o discontent_n because_o they_o deprive_v themselves_o of_o their_o pleasure_n and_o corporal_a content_n and_o be_v not_o cherish_v with_o the_o spiritual_a and_o they_o who_o be_v mortify_v live_v as_o it_o be_v always_o cheerful_a and_o content_v because_o they_o abhor_v or_o begin_v to_o abhor_v corporal_a pleasure_n and_o begin_v to_o taste_v spiritual_a pleasure_n the_o four_o difference_n be_v that_o they_o who_o mortify_v themselves_o be_v much_o like_a unto_o a_o man_n who_o head_n be_v cut_v with_o a_o rough_a and_o rusty_a see_v in_o as_o much_o as_o all_o thing_n be_v unsweet_a and_o sour_a unto_o he_o and_o they_o who_o be_v mortify_v be_v like_a unto_o a_o man_n who_o head_n be_v cut_v with_o a_o sharp_a sword_n and_o a_o arm_n skilful_a in_o cut_v in_o as_o much_o as_o the_o holy_a spirit_n mortify_v he_o without_o that_o himself_o feel_v the_o mortification_n that_o this_o be_v true_a those_o person_n who_o be_v mortify_v by_o the_o holy_a spirit_n know_v by_o experience_n the_o five_o difference_n be_v that_o they_o who_o mortify_v themselves_o live_v always_o in_o continual_a trouble_n and_o in_o continual_a labour_n be_v like_a unto_o a_o man_n that_o learn_v with_o exceed_a pain_n a_o most_o difficult_a and_o unpleasant_a science_n who_o find_v in_o the_o principle_n thereof_o much_o unsweetnesse_n and_o much_o molestation_n comfort_v himself_o only_o with_o a_o opinion_n that_o he_o shall_v prove_v excellent_a in_o that_o science_n and_o they_o that_o be_v mortify_v neither_o travel_v nor_o labour_v themselves_o in_o their_o mortification_n be_v like_a unto_o a_o man_n that_o go_v delight_v and_o recreate_v himself_o in_o the_o study_n of_o that_o science_n which_o he_o have_v already_o learned_a wherein_o find_v few_o thing_n which_o he_o understand_v not_o he_o find_v few_o thing_n that_o trouble_v he_o the_o six_o difference_n be_v that_o in_o they_o who_o mortify_v themselves_o by_o themselves_o there_o be_v never_o true_a mortification_n nay_o rather_o they_o be_v like_a unto_o quick_a lime_n in_o as_o much_o as_o the_o quick_a lime_n smoke_v not_o whilst_o there_o be_v no_o water_n cast_v thereon_o which_o be_v no_o soon_o cast_v upon_o it_o than_o it_o show_v the_o fire_n that_o it_o have_v within_o so_o they_o whilst_o they_o have_v no_o occasion_n to_o err_v do_v not_o err_v and_o when_o occasion_n come_v they_o present_o show_v the_o liveliness_n that_o they_o have_v within_o they_o either_o err_a or_o be_v straight_o solicit_v to_o err_v and_o they_o who_o be_v mortify_v by_o the_o holy_a spirit_n have_v true_a mortification_n and_o be_v like_a unto_o dead_a lime_n in_o as_o much_o that_o like_v as_o the_o dead_a lime_n do_v not_o smoke_n how_o much_o water_n soever_o be_v cast_v upon_o it_o so_o neither_o do_v they_o err_v nor_o be_v much_o solicit_v to_o err_v although_o many_o occasion_n offer_v themselves_o unto_o they_o and_o so_o shall_v this_o be_v the_o seven_o difference_n be_v that_o they_o who_o mortify_v themselves_o in_o the_o occasion_n of_o err_a do_v miserable_o loose_v themselves_o for_o be_v deceive_v by_o humane_a wisdom_n they_o do_v always_o go_v avoid_v the_o occasion_n which_o incite_v they_o to_o err_v and_o they_o who_o be_v mortify_v in_o the_o occasion_n of_o err_a that_o offer_v themselves_o unto_o they_o be_v refine_v as_o gold_n in_o the_o fire_n
