A
sermon
of
the
excedyng
great
mercy
of
god
made
by
Erasmus
Roterodamus
.
FOr
as
moche
as
I
pourpose
this
daye
to
speake
of
the
greatnes
of
the
mercies
of
our
lorde
/
Bretherne
and
systerne
most
welbeloued
in
Christ
/
without
whose
helpe
mans
frailte
and
weakenes
can
naught
do
:
let
vs
all
to gether
with
a
common
prayer
beseche
the
mercy
of
the
common
lorde
of
vs
all
/
so
to
moue
the
instrument
of
my
tonge
/
and
so
to
stere
and
kendell
your
hartes
/
that
as
we
shall
departe
hence
through
the
mercy
of
our
lorde
more
plentiouslye
endewed
with
heuenly
grace
:
so
euery
man
to
his
neighbourwarde
maye
more
abundantly
vse
the
warkes
of
mercy
.
Some
vse
here
to
grete
the
virgin
mo●her
/
I
denye
nat
euery
where
moche
honour
ought
to
be
gyuen
her
/
but
verily
to
our
purpose
nowe
me
semeth
more
expedi●nt
/
if
ye
folowe
me
thus
goynge
before
you
:
Iesus
Christe
the
almyghtye
worde
of
the
euerlastynge
father
/
that
promysest
to
be
pres●nt
/
where
so
euer
two
or
thre
were
assembled
in
thy
name
/
thou
seest
howe
many
in
thy
name
be
here
gethered
.
Uouchesafe
therfore
accordyng
to
the
promise
/
to
be
amonge
this
companye
:
that
theyr
hartes
lyghted
through
grace
of
the
holy
goste
/
may
vnderstande
more
fully
the
greatnesse
of
thy
mercy
:
wherby
we
al
to gether
may
with
a
lustier
mynde
both
yelde
to
the
thankes
for
thy
mercy
/
that
so
ofte
hath
ben
to
vs
shewed
/
&
that
more
desyrouslye
in
all
our
necessites
/
we
maye
calle
theron
for
helpe
:
and
lastely
that
we
humble
seruauntes
maye
the
mercy
of
our
lorde
/
that
vn to
we
haue
largely
proued
/
to
our
power
louyngly
prosecute
on
our
felowes
lyke
wyse
seruantes
.
If
that
euery
man
(
as
the
rhetoriciens
teache
)
is
right
diligent
and
attentiue
to
here
those
thynges
/
that
he
vnderstandeth
shuld
sharpely
touche
hym
:
than
there
oughte
none
of
you
to
nodde
or
slepe
in
this
sermon
tyme
/
seyng
that
the
saluacion
of
vs
allegally
dependeth
on
the
mercy
of
our
lorde
:
Nor
there
is
none
so
yonge
nor
so
olde
/
of
so
lowe
or
so
high
byrth
/
so
poore
nor
so
riche
/
so
bonde
nor
so
fre
,
so
counnyng
nor
so
rude
,
so
wicked
nor
so
iuste
/
but
that
he
hath
often
tymes
bothe
proued
the
mercy
of
our
lorde
/
and
nedeth
the
mercy
of
our
lorde
to
all
thynges
that
he
rightously
goth
about
.
What
matter
more
fauorable
may
be
treated
/
than
that
by
the
mercy
of
god
/
euerlastynge
helth
is
prepared
for
al
folkes
?
Of
very
right
therfore
in
this
sermon
tyme
/
as
many
as
be
here
present
/
ye
shulde
nat
onely
take
hede
,
but
also
be
lusty
and
gladde
to
here
hit
:
for
who
so
euer
doth
loue
and
fauer
hym selfe
/
woll
loue
and
fauer
this
sermon
.
¶
Amonge
the
manyfolde
yuels
/
whiche
drawe
mankynde
to
euerlastyng
damnacion
/
there
be
two
chiefe
and
pryncipall
myscheues
:
of
whiche
they
oughte
specially
to
be
ware
/
that
loue
vertue
and
goodnes
/
and
desyre
to
come
to
the
feloweshyp
of
euerlastyng
felicite
.
They
be
these
,
To
moche
trust
on
ones
owne
selfe
and
Dispeire
.
The
one
cometh
of
a
presumptuous
mynde
agaynst
god
/
that
the
loue
of
ones
selfe
hath
blynded
:
the
other
is
engendred
one
way
by
pondrynge
the
great
offences
/
an
other
way
by
consydrynge
the
ryghtous
iugement
of
god
without
r●membrance
of
his
mercy
.
Both
these
are
so
pestilent
and
cursed
/
that
many
doubt
whiche
of
them
is
more
to
be
aborred
.
For
what
is
greatter
madnes
or
more
lamentable
than
man
that
is
erth
&
ashes
/
whiche
what
so
he
is
or
may
do
/
is
for
hit
all
bounde
to
the
goodnes
of
god
:
to
rebelle
agaynst
hym
/
of
whom
he
was
created
/
of
whom
he
was
redemed
/
and
of
whom
by
so
many
meanes
he
is
called
to
the
company
of
euerlastynge
lyfe
?
Is
it
nat
a
point
of
great
vnkyndnes
to
set
nought
by
hym
/
of
whom
thou
haste
r●ceyued
so
many
benefites
?
Is
it
nat
a
poynt
of
great
madnes
to
wyll
to
rebelle
agaynst
hym
that
may
distroye
the
with
a
becke
?
Is
it
nat
a
great
poynt
of
wickednes
nat
to
knowlege
thy
maker
/
nat
to
honour
thy
father
/
nat
to
loue
thy
sauiour
?
Unhappy
Lucifer
was
bold
to
do
this
fyrst
/
whiche
ascriuyng
to
hym selfe
/
that
he
frely
resceiued
of
lamighty
god
/
sayd
in
his
harte
:
I
wyl
get
vp
aboue
in
heuen
/
I
wyll
exalte
my
seate
aboue
the
sterres
of
god
/
I
wyll
syt
vpon
the
hyll
of
testimony
in
the
sydes
of
the
Northe
wynde
/
I
wyll
clyme
vp
aboue
the
height
of
the
cloudes
/
I
wyll
be
lyke
to
almighty
god
.
But
wolde
to
god
that
his
vnhappy
fall
myght
at
the
leest
fray
mortal
creatures
from
folowynge
of
his
vngracious
example
/
if
the
wycked
dede
it selfe
can
nat
feare
them
.
Truely
if
god
spared
nat
proude
presumptuous
angels
/
but
cast
them
headlyng
downe
in
to
hell
/
and
ordeyned
them
straytly
bounde
in
cheynes
to
be
kept
tyll
the
daye
of
dome
/
what
deserueth
man
a
sely
worme
/
whiche
as
now
were
crept
out
of
the
erth
/
must
shortly
returne
to
erthe
agayne
/
is
proude
presumptuous
&
testy
agaynst
god
?
The
more
lowe
and
vyle
the
condicion
of
man
is
/
the
more
abominable
is
his
presumpcion
/
desiryng
to
be
egal
with
god
.
The
ancient
poetes
feyned
/
There
rose
a
stryfe
on
a
tyme
amonge
the
goddis
/
that
constrained
Iupiter
hym selfe
to
forsake
heuen
and
f●ee
in
to
Egypt
/
and
there
in
an
other
shap
to
hyde
hym
:
but
a
farre
more
myscheuous
dede
/
was
that
the
gyantes
went
about
/
which
confederated
to gether
agaynst
Iupiter
/
dyd
caste
hyls
vpon
hyls
/
that
they
myght
so
conquere
heuen
&
expelle
Iupiter
thence
.
Ye
may
wel
laughe
/
these
tales
that
ye
here
be
nat
gospel
:
but
yet
ye●
erudite
olde
tyme
wolde
signifie
some
what
vnder
the
coueryng
of
these
fables
/
that
longeth
to
the
expre●syng
of
mortall
folks
maners
.
Salmoneus
was
headlyng
throwen
downe
in
to
helle
/
bicause
he
coūtrefetted
thounder
and
lyghtnyng
of
Iupiter
.
Admit
it
be
but
a
fable
:
but
howe
many
sely
mortal
men
haue
ther
ben
/
that
in
dede
&
seriously
wold
haue
heuenly
honours
done
to
them
?
Dyd
nat
god
turne
Nabugodonosor
/
that
wold
haue
made
hym selfe
a
god
/
in
to
a
brute
beast
/
that
from
a
beast
he
shulde
retourne
to
a
humayne
shappe
.
Great
Alexander
wolde
be
take
for
Iupiters
sonne
/
and
suffred
hym selfe
to
be
worshypped
at
his
table
.
Domitius
Cesar
in
all
his
letters
patentes
&
pistils
/
and
in
his
communication
wolde
be
called
both
god
and
lorde
.
Adrian
ordeined
that
Antinous
shuld
be
worshipped
as
a
god
.
Why
reherse
I
all
this
/
whan
it
was
a
solemne
thyng
amonge
the
Romayns
/
after
their
Emperours
were
departed
this
lyfe
/
to
make
them
goddis
.
Some
of
them
a
lyue
had
godly
honors
/
whiche
offred
to
accept
is
wicked
madnes
/
&
to
vsurpe
is
desperate
blyndnes
.
If
auctorite
of
stories
be
of
no
great
weyght
,
let
vs
here
what
the
apostel
Paule
to
the
Thessalonicens
wrote
of
Nero
/
truly
some
interpretate
thus
:
And
the
creature
of
synne
/
sayth
he
/
were
vncouered
/
the
childe
of
predicion
/
whiche
is
agaynst
&
is
enhansed
aboue
al
that
is
called
god
&
that
is
worshipped
/
so
that
he
sitteth
in
the
temple
of
god
/
shewynge
him selfe
as
though
he
were
god
.
But
perauenture
it
shal
seme
no
maruayle
if
some
that
worshypped
for
goddes
/
oxen
/
apes
/
dogges
/
and
thynges
more
vile
/
domme
stones
/
&
wodde
/
wolde
haue
them selfe
taken
for
goddes
/
as
farre
more
excellent
than
these
thinges
to
whiche
the
people
dydde
godly
honors
.
In
the
actis
of
the
apostles
/
Herode
knowyng
ther
was
but
one
god
/
of
whose
honour
no
man
coude
be
partener
/
suffred
the
people
to
crye
to
hym
in
his
sermon
:
This
is
the
voyce
of
god
&
nat
of
a
man
:
Shortly
after
he
was
stryken
by
the
angel
of
god
that
reuenged
that
iniury
/
he
the
myserable
god
dyed
of
the
lowsye
yuell
:
than
whiche
no
disease
is
more
foule
stynkyng
&
peynfull
.
I
wolde
to
god
there
were
none
amonge
christie●s
/
that
folowed
the
wickednes
of
Lucifer
/
I
may
nat
say
passe
it
.
What
?
Loke
ye
that
I
shuld
open
somwhat
of
secrete
confessions
?
What
nede
it
,
whan
in
some
countres
in
the
market
place
in
the
churches
/
at
dyner
/
souper
/
in
playenge
and
sportyng
we
here
al
about
they
forswere
them selfe
by
the
most
honorable
name
of
god
/
this
that
I
say
is
a
lyght
thynge
:
we
here
the
name
of
god
denyed
/
the
holy
name
of
Christe
with
many
vile
wordes
blamed
:
the
fore fynger
bytten
god
thretned
/
the
thōme
put
betwene
the
formest
and
myddell
fynger
,
that
is
done
agaynst
god
fountayne
of
all
glory
/
that
is
wont
to
be
done
agaynst
an
infamous
person
for
riproche
and
shame
.
Be
there
none
amonge
Christiens
/
if
they
may
be
called
Christiens
/
whiche
for
reches
that
they
must
shortly
forgo
/
or
foule
bodily
plesure
/
or
for
transitory
honours
/
forsake
their
owne●prince
/
and
make
a
wicked
composicion
with
the●r
foo
Satanas
?
the
fourme
of
the
othe
taken
,
atones
they
forswere
what
so
euer
confederacion
was
made
with
Christe
/
and
offre
to
helle
part
of
theyr
body
as
the
fyrste
frute
/
to
the
prince
wherof
they
vowed
holly
theyr
soule
?
These
thynges
spyed
out
we
se
punyshed
dayly
by
open
execution
.
What
thynge
lyke
dyd
Lucifer
?
for
hym
the
son
of
god
dyed
nat
,
and
yet
he
was
nat
so
hardy
to
blaspheme
god
:
he
alonly
desyred
egal
honour
.
That
vnhappy
cuntre
/
wherin
somtyme
were
.v.
mighty
cites
/
nowe
is
a
pestylent
and
abominable
lake
/
for
the
swete
waters
of
Iordane
bearyng
yll
fauored
claye
/
the
horrible
example
wherof
shall
remaine
euer
in
remembrance
to
them
that
come
after
/
had
the
inhabitances
vtterly
gyuen
to
ryot
and
lechery
/
but
yet
we
rede
nat
that
any
of
them
was
so
wicked
/
that
he
wolde
blaspheme
god
/
curse
and
threten
hym
:
and
yet
they
were
all
distroyed
by
rayne
myngled
with
brimstone
.
O
thyng
horrible
/
there
been
founde
amonge
Christen
people
/
that
dare
do
/
that
Lucifer
durst
nat
/
that
Gomorra
durst
nat
:
whiche
also
to
so
many
abominable
dedes
ioyne
blasphemynge
.
I
se
you
most
dere
bretherne
tremble
at
rehersynge
of
these
thynges
/
and
no
meruayle
:
I
my selfe
also
rehersyng
them
quyuer
&
shake
bothe
body
and
soule
.
Neuerthelesse
we
purpose
nat
onely
in
this
sermon
to
declare
howe
great
a
synne
dispeire
of
forgyuenes
is
/
but
also
to
shewe
howe
excedyng
great
the
mercy
of
god
is
/
whiche
to
preyse
we
haue
this
day
entreprised
:
the
whiche
also
spareth
suche
folkes
/
and
gyueth
them
space
to
repent
&
amende
.
And
perauenture
we
stande
in
our
owne
conceyt
/
by
cause
amonge
vs
the
examples
of
crimes
/
that
I
rehersed
nowe
/
be
seldome
seen
:
but
what
matter
maketh
it
/
if
the
tonge
soundeth
no
blasphemynge
whan
of
many
the
holle
lyfe
speketh
no
other
thyng
but
blasphemyng
agaynst
god
?
The
glouttons
for
god
worshyp
theyr
bealy
,
who
continually
by
right
&
wronge
gape
to
hepe
riches
to gether
/
whiche
by
murther
,
treason
,
poisonyng
,
&
enchanting
stalke
vp
to
honors
/
whiche
by
tyranny
opresse
poore
people
/
whiche
to
haue
al
thing
to
their
mynde
kendel
al
the
worlde
to
warre
:
nor
perseueryng
in
these
great
iuels
haue
no
shame
nor
repentance
/
but
with
a
shameles
countinance
lyke
a
common
woman
/
reioyse
yea
in
thynges
most
mischieffull
/
skornynge
&
mockyng
the
good
lyuers
:
do
nat
the
caytiues
by
those
dedes
saye
:
There
is
no
god
/
goddis
behestis
ben
false
/
the
thretnynges
of
god
be
vayne
/
the
worde
of
god
is
a
lye
/
yeldynge
the
ioyes
of
heuen
to
them
that
mourne
here
/
that
thyrst
and
hunger
Iustice
/
that
be
meke
/
that
suffre
persecution
/
that
for
iustice
ben
with
vyle
wordes
rebuked
?
What
can
be
more
abominable
than
this
blasphemyng
?
And
yet
if
any
thynge
can
be
worse
than
that
/
whiche
is
most
worse
/
dispeyre
is
worse
than
the
holle
stynkynge
multitude
of
other
synnes
.
The
wicked
man
seyng
me
might
do
what
thyng
he
wold
vnpunished
/
he
was
proude
of
his
prosperite
&
sayd
in
his
harte
:
There
is
no
god
,
and
there
is
no
knowlege
aboue
,
god
careth
nat
for
mortal
folkes
busynes
.
And
as
he
is
lesse
iniurious
agaynst
a
man
/
that
beleueth
nat
he
is
/
than
he
that
beleueth
hym
to
be
cruel
or
false
:
So
lyke
wyse
they
bene
lesse
wycked
that
vtterly
say
there
is
no
god
/
than
they
that
beleue
he
is
vnmercifull
/
takyng
away
that
vertue
from
hym
/
without
whiche
kynges
be
nat
kynges
but
tyrantes
.
But
who
so
euer
casteth
hope
of
forgyuenes
aside
&
rolleth
hym selfe
downe
in
to
the
hurlepyt
of
dispeyre
/
he
doth
nat
onely
beleue
that
god
is
nat
almyghty
/
supposyng
some
syn
so
horrible
that
he
can
nat
forgyue
:
but
also
maketh
hym
a
lyer
.
He
promyseth
by
the
prophet
/
that
he
wyll
incontinent
clene
forgette
all
maner
synnes
/
assone
as
the
synner
bewaylethe
th●m
.
Contrary
wyse
/
they
that
folowe
Cain
say
:
My
synne
is

If

And

yet
there
is

it
is
egally
common
to
all

persons

His
highe

he
shewed

whan

created
these
marueylous
warkes

with
a

of

whiche

Agayne

Whan

Al

They

And
Paule

There

Nowe
let
is
here
howe
well
with
hym
agreeth
the
mystical
synger
/
whiche
with
a

exhorteth

:
Our

Ones
only
is
made
mencion
of
iugement
/
but
mercy
is
twyse
rehersed
with
this
commendacion
/
that
therof
the
erthe
is
full
.
I
myght
boldly
adde
this
/
stayeng
me
by
the
auctorite
of
Iob
and
the
apostle
:
That
nat
only
the
erthe
is
full
of
our
lordes
mercy
/
but
also
heuen
and
helle
.
What
syngeth
the
xxxv
.
psalme
:
O
lorde
thy
mercy
is
in
heuen
/
and
thy
trouth
recheth
to

.
They
in

perceiued
the

of
our

/
whan
he
brake
the
gates
of
darknes
&
broughte
out
the
prisoners
in
to
the
heuenly
kyngdome
.
If
one
wold
consydre
the
warkes
of
god
/
whiche
after
the
misticall
discussyng
of
Moyses
/
he
made
ꝑfet
in
the
fyrst
.vi.
days
/
he
shulde
greatly
maruayle
at
his
power

ineffable
wysedome
/
yea
and
crye
out
in
the
voyce
of
all
the

:
Pleni

&c.
The
heuens
and

be

of
thy

.
Nor
he
ne
coude
absteine
hym selfe
/
but
brast
out
in
the
hynne
of
the
thre
children
:
Benedicite

&c.
Blesse
ye
al

What
so
euer

what

what

what

sheweth

continuall
the
glory
of

But
what
sayth
the
psalme
.
Cxliiii
?
Our
lorde
is
piteous
and
mercifull
/
pacient
&
moche
mercifull
.
Our
lorde
is
swete
to
all
/
and
his
mercifull
pitees
passen
all
his
warkes
.
Ergo
some
thinge
there
is
more
marueylous
/
than
to
haue
made
the
heuens
/
with
so
many
bryghte
sterres
/
to
haue
created
the
erthe
with
so
many
kyndes
of
beastis
/
of
trees
/
&
variablenes
of
all
thynges
/
to
haue
created
so
many
companyes
of
angelycall
myndes
.
Who
durst
be
so
bolde
to
affyrme
hit
/
excepte
the
prophet
shewed
playnely
/
that
the
mercyes
of
our
lorde
passe
the
glory
of
all
his
other
warkes
?
And
yet
he
shal
nat
dout
it
to
be
true
/
who
so
euer
with
a
religious
curiosite
will
consider
howe
moche
more
maruelously
he
redemed
than
created
man
.
Is
it
nat
more
wonderfull
god
to
be
made
man
/
than
the
angels
to
be
created
of
god
?
Is
it
nat
more
marueile
/
that
god
wrapped
in
a
babis
clothes
/
shuld
wayle
/
and
cry
/
in
the
cratche
or
racke
/
than
to
reigne
in
the
heuens
/
that
he
made
?
Here
the
angels
/
as
thyng
of
greattest
wonder
synge
glory
to
god
in
the
mooste
high
heuenly
mansions
.
They
se

this

that
the

angels

Wycked

the

:
and
in
this

disceyued

/
the

begyled
the
crafte

.
The
creation
of
the

was
the
warke
of
puissance
/
the
worlde
so
restored
was
the
warke
of
mercy
.
Thendis

What
is

What
is
weaker

Yet
vnder
that
weakenes
/
excedyng
power
of
diuyne

laye
hyd
/
that
brake
/
ouer

/
and
clene
distroyed

The
same
prophet
whan
he
had
eares
erudite
/
whan
he
had
eies
very
clere
by
faythe
/
he
herde
the
holle
frame
of
the
worlde
on
euery
parte
shewe
the
great
myght
of
god
/
and
he
was
afrayde
:
he
considered
his
warkes
/
and
was
amased
.
And
yet
as
though
in
all
these
thyngis
the
great
might
of
god
was
nat
playn
inough
/
he
added
/
that
shulde
ouercome
all
these
warkes
:
In
the
myddes
of
two
beastis
thou
shalt
be
knowen
.
In
the
meare
of
the
olde
&
newe
testament
/
he
become
man
/
opened
playnely
that
most
bashefull
miracle
of
his
mercy
.
Undouted
hit
is
that
the
prophet
soone
after
addeth
:
Whan
thou
woldest
be
angry
/
thou
shalte
remember
thy
mercy
.
Of
them
that
do
thynges
wonderfull
/
we
be
wont
to
say
:
In
those
he
ouercame
al
/
in
this
he
ouercame
hym selfe
.
Of
god
some
thyng
lyke
may
well
be
sayd
:
God
is
incomparable
in
all
his
dedes
/
&
can
nat
be
folowed
/
In
mercy
he
excedeth
hym selfe
.
Holy
scripture
extolleth
no
vertue
in
god
so
moche
as
mercy
/
whiche
some
tyme
calleth
it
great
/
some
tyme
ouermoche
,
and
somtyme
augmenteth
the
plentifull
abundance
therof
by
nombre
of
multitude
.
Kyng
Dauid
the
prophet
in
the
same
place
/
complecteth
the
largenesse
and
multitude
of
diuyne
mercy
:
Miserere
mei
de●●
secundum
.
&c.
O
god
haue
mercy
on
me
after
thy
great
mercy
/
and
after
the
multitude
of
thy
mercyes
do
away
my
wickednes
.
Where
is
great
misery
/
there
is
nede
of
great
mercy
.
If
ye
considre
how
horrible
the
synne
of
Dauid
was
/
ye
knowe
the
largenesse
of
mercy
:
If
ye
caste
howe
many
maner
wyse
he
offended
in
one
trespas
/
ye
maye
se
the
multitude
of
his
mercies
.
An
excedyng
great
offence
is
neuer
commytted
alone
/
a
faute
draweth
a
faute
/
as
one
lynke
doth
an
other
in
a
cheyne
.
Fyrst
he
ioyned
together
two
most
deedly
synnes
/
manslaughter
and
aduoutry
:
eche
of
them
was
more
greuous
in
the
kynge
:
whose
office
is
to
punyshe
other
that
so
offende
.
For
the
more
princis
do
amys
vnpunysshed
amonge
men
/
the
more
they
offende
god
.
He
bare
a
●worde
to
punysshe
manslaughter
/
and
he
hym selfe
commytted
manslaughter
.
By
hym
women
taken
in
aduoutri
were
deliuered
to
be
stoned
to
deth
/
and
he
hym selfe
compelled
to
do
aduoutry
.
He
also
peculierly
augmented
the
same
aduoutry
/
that
whan
he
had
flockes
of
wyues
and
concubyns
at
home
/
yet
nat
for
nede
but
for
wantonnes
he
coueted
an
other
mans
wyfe
/
that
he
wolde
seme
delite
rather
in
rauysshyng
than
in
simple
fornication
.
For
he
offendethe
nat
so
moche
/
that
nede
constrayneth
to
steale
somewhat
from
the
riche
man
/
as
he
that
hath
his
house
plentifully
stouffed
/
&
taketh
his
gowne
from
hym
/
that
hath
no
mo
to
his
backe
.
This
cruel
offence
Nathan
the
prophet
dyd
obiect
agaynst
hym
vnder
the
parabol
of
the
ryche
thefe
and
poore
man
robbed
.
Nowe
no
kynde
of
manslaughter
is
more
cruell
/
than
that
that
is
nat
by
chance
or
sodayne
mouyng
of
the
mynde
/
but
by
a
dryft
before
driuen
/
wayting
conuenient
tyme
/
is
committed
.
Urias
had
nothyng
deserued
/
the
kynge
knewe
hym
ryght
trusty
/
and
he
abused
the
same
trustynes
of
the
man
to
his
distruction
.
He
wolde
in
no
wise
entre
within
his
owne
house
to
lye
with
his
wyfe
/
bycause
the
arke
of
god
was
lyenge
in
the
tentes
/
and
Ioab
capytayne
of
the
warre
with
the
people
/
slept
vpon
the
grounde
/
and
al
that
great
worthines
of
the
man
coude
nat
turne
the
kynges
mynde
from
the
iuell
dede
.
The
morowe
after
he
had
hym
to
supper
/
&
made
hym
dronke
/
sekyng
occasion
to
distroy
him
/
if
he
through
dronkennes
shuld
hap
to
speke
ought
vndiscretely
.
&
yet
Urias
beyng
dronke
wold
nat
come
in
his
house
to
take
his
pleasure
with
his
wyfe
.
An
other
gyle
was
added
/
wherby
the
stronge
&
trusty
warriour
muste
perisshe
.
A
lettre
of
murther
to
hym
suspectyng
no
suche
thyng
was
delyuered
:
for
the
kynge
knewe
his
faythfulnes
so
perfecte
/
that
he
had
no
dout
he
wolde
open
and
rede
it
.
In
the
offence
of
manslaughter
he
made
Ioab
the
capitayne
partner
/
lyke
as
he
had
Bersabee
of
aduoutrye
.
And
Urias
perished
nat
alone
/
but
to
couer
the
gyle
/
many
were
broughte
in
to
the
same
daunger
:
a
great
nombre
of
people
was
set
in
the
open
shot
of
theyr
ennemyes
/
to
th
ende
one
innocent
myght
be
kylde
/
to
gyue
place
to
the
kynges
foule
bodily
pleasure
.
Therfore
in
one
sinne
how
many
are
the
offences
?
If
hit
were
one
only
synne
/
and
excedynge
great
/
hit
nedeth
great
mercy
.
Nowe
Dauid
seynge
his
●yn
so
many
folde
&
dyuers
/
he
calleth
on
the
multitude
of
mercies
.
But
howe
largely
the
mercy
of
god
is
opened
/
the
.xxxv.
psalme
declareth
/
sayenge
:
O
good
lorde
thou
shalt
saue
men
and
beastis
/
like
As
thou
haste
multiplyed
thy
mercy
.
God
saueth
nat
only
man
/
but
also
he
vouchesafeth
for
mannes
beho●e
to
saue
bestis
.
Againe
in
an
other
place
how
reioyseth
the
prophettes
spirite
/
whan
he
saythe
:
I
wyll
syng
the
mercies
of
god
perpetually
.
And
therfore
in
the
heuens
the
mercy
of
god
is
worshipt
&
honoured
/
like
as
sayth
an
other
psalme
:
Knowlege
your selfe
to
god
bycause
he
is
good
/
bycause
his
mercy
is
in
al
worldes
.
The
preising
of
the
mercy
of
god
semed
to
haue
ende
/
after
the
ende
of
all
wretchednes
came
/
except
the
same
felicite
that
good
folkes
haue
in
heuen
/
were
the
gyft
of
mercy
/
and
the
punishement
of
the
wicked
tempered
with
the
great
mercy
of
god
.
But
what
shall
we
say
/
whan
all
the
lyfe
with
a
thousande
syns
/
and
all
the
stynkyng
see
of
vices
is
corrupted
?
Truly
we
must
cry
with
Asaph
:
O
lorde
remember
nat
our
olde
iniquitees
/
but
let
thy
mercy
preuent
vs
quickely
/
for
we
be
made
ouer
poore
.
Againe
in
an
other
place
:
Many
be
thy
mercyes
lorde
/
after
thy
pleasant
speche
quicken
me
.
Agayne
in
an
other
place
Dauid
/
as
he
complayned
with
god
/
crieth
out
:
Where
be
thy
olde
mercyes
good
lorde
?
Agayne
in
the
psalme
.
Cvj.
Let
the
mercies
of
our
lorde
be
confessed
/
&
his
maruayles
of
the
sons
of
men
:
Whiche
verse
as
enterlyned
is
oft
repeted
in
the
same
psalme
.
In
the
psalme
also
that
goeth
nexte
before
:
And
he
gaue
vs
vnto
his
mercies
in
the
syght
of
all
that
toke
them
.
He
sayd
mercies
/
bicause
he
had
rehersed
many
wycked
dedes
/
with
whiche
he
prouoked
the
anger
of
god
.
And
Dauid
on
all
partis
oppressed
with
yls
/
sayth
:
It
is
better
that
I
fall
in
the
handes
of
our
lorde
:
for
manifold
are
his
merices
/
than
in
to
the
handes
of
men
.
As
in
one
offence
often
times
are
many
sinnes
,
so
lyke
wise
in
one
m●rcy
many
mercies
are
conteyned
.
Ones
he
redemed
mankynd
/
but
here
in
howe
manifolde
are
the
mercies
?
Whiche
Esaias
beholdynge
with
the
eie
of
fayth
/
speketh
thus
in
the
persone
of
god
/
promysynge
our
sauiour
Iesus
:
And
I
wyll
make
with
you
a
couenant
euerlastyng
/
the
faythfull
mercies
of
Dauid
.
In
a
lyke
figure
god
being
appeased
speketh
in
the
prophet
Hieromie
:
And
I
wyll
gyue
you
mercies
/
and
shall
haue
pite
vpon
you
.
For
many
greuous
synnes
,
many
mercyes
are
promysed
.
Lyke
wyse
after
many
afflictions
/
god
hauynge
pyte
of
his
people
speketh
thus
in
the
prophet
zacarie
:
I
wyll
retourne
to
Hierusalem
in
mercies
/
and
my
house
shall
be
buylded
.
But
why
reherse
we
those
thynges
/
out
of
bokes
of
the
olde
testament
/
in
whiche
so
ofte
tymes
the
name
of
mercies
is
encountred
?
And
yet
some
heretykes
beleue
that
the
same
lawe
procedeth
of
a
●uste
and
nat
of
a
good
god
/
whan
it
souneth
welnere
nothyng
elles
than
the
mercies
of
our
lorde
.
Howe
moche
lesse
is
it
to
be
maruailed
/
if
Paule
th
apostle
in
the
.ii.
pistle
to
the
Thessal
.
accordyng
to
the
prophettis
wordes
writeth
in
this
wyse
:
Blessed
be
god
and
father
of
our
lorde
Iesu
Christe
/
father
of
mercyes
/
&
lorde
of
al
consolacion
/
whiche
conforteth
vs
in
al
our
tribulacion
.
The
apostle
somwhat
addeth
to
mercy
,
for
it
is
a
poynt
of
mercy
to
pardone
offence
done
:
here
whiche
is
moche
more
/
god
of
a
reuenger
is
made
a
conforter
.
These
thynges
we
haue
repeted
of
the
holy
scripture
/
to
th
entent
that
we
by
that
fygure
of
spekyng
myght
vnderstande
the
signified
excedyng
and
vnspekeable
mercy
of
god
towarde
euery
body
/
and
in
all
yls
.
The
same
is
shewed
by
an
other
figure
/
whiche
is
eyther
Anadiplosis
,
that
in
latin
one
may
calle
Conduplicatio
,
orels
nerest
to
Anadiplosis
.
For
as
the
Hebrewes
call
that
good
good
/
that
they
reken
to
be
excedyng
good
/
and
yll
yll
that
is
excedyng
yll
:
so
likewise
in
holy
scripture
god
is
ofte
called
pitefull
and
mercifull
/
for
the
excedyng
greatnes
of
his
mercy
.
So
ye
rede
in
the
psalme
Cxliiij
.
Our
lorde
is
pitefull
and
merciful
/
and
as
though
that
also
were
a
small
thynge
/
he
addeth
:
Pacient
and
moche
merciful
.
Agayne
in
an
other
psalme
:
Our
pitefull
&
mercifull
lorde
hath
made
remembrance
of
his
marueiles
.
Lykewyse
in
Iohel
,
Rente
your
hartes
and
nat
your
clothes
/
for
our
lorde
god
is
pitefull
and
mercifull
,
and
sorowynge
for
malices
.
And
in
the
prophet
Ieremie
:
Therfore
my
bowelles
haue
ben
troubled
vpon
hym
/
I
piteynge
shall
haue
mercy
on
them
/
saythe
our
lord
.
What
is
piteyng
to
haue
mercy
/
but
to
haue
mercy
out
of
mea●ure
?
To
this
poynt
perteyneth
/
that
sythe
it
is
infinite
/
what
so
euer
is
in
god
:
yet
it
that
amonge
men
sowneth
vnto
vice
/
holy
writte
semeth
to
ascribe
vnto
hym
/
certeyne
ouer
moche
and
vnmoderate
mercy
.
I
wolde
your
goodnesse
shulde
so
take
this
sayeng
/
as
persuaded
nothynge
to
be
in
god
that
sowueth
to
any
vice
/
shuld
vnderstande
/
that
vnder
the
figure
the
holy
scripture
submyt●yng
it selfe
to
mannes
perceyuing
/
signyfyeth
a
marueilous
&
an
incredible
excesse
of
diuine
mercy
.
Whiche
thynge
that
I
may
more
plainly
speake
&
ye
more
perfectly
perceyue
/
consydre
this
in
your
mynde
.
¶
If
a
kyng
shulde
stablyshe
rigorous
lawes
on
a
mankyller
/
&
after
he
had
cōmytt●d
manslaughter

/
may
hap
it
shuld

But
&

The

&

Also

If
the

so
lewdly

wyll
nat
euery

:
He

And
moche
more
southly

if

More
ouer

But

But
god
that
is
our

our

our

our

,
exc●pteth
no
kynde
of

he
prescribet●
no

The
shepe
that
was

What
thyng
els
signifieth
all
this
/
but
vnmoderate
/
&
●if
I
may
so
saye
)
ouermoche
mercy
of

But
nowe
it
semeth
lesse
marueile
/
if
a
m●n
forgyue
a
man
offendyng
/
that
also
other
while
doth
offence
hym selfe
likewise

or
may
offend
,
if
a
kynge
pardone

that
somtyme
dyd
hym
good
profitable
seruice
:
or
if
the
father
forgyue
his

/
whose
conuersacion
he
feleth
doth
ease
his
olde
age
:
if
a
mayster
forgyue

by

labour
he
partly
lyueth
:
if
the
husbande

his

Amonge
men
he
that
some

ꝑdoneth
dredeth
hym
that
he
forgiueth
/
and
other
while
can
nat
auenge
hym selfe
/
if
he
wolde
.
But
god
that
hath
nede
of
no
man
/
that
may
with
a
becke
distroy
vs
if
he
wold
/
so
often
tymes
of
vs
despised
/
forsaken
/
&
denied
:
suffreth
/
calleth
/
receyueth
/
and
enbraseth
vs
.
As
no
loue
is
more
feruent
nor
strayter
conioynynge
/
than
betwene
man
and
wyfe
:
so
lyke
wyse
no
anger
is
harder
to
appease
than
it
that
ryseth
by
breakyng
of
wedlocke
.
And
yet
here
what
our
mylde
lorde
saythe
by
the
prophet
Esaias
to
his
spouse
an
auou●rice
/
defyled
with
so
many
auoutries
:
It
is
commonly
sayd
/
if
a
man
forsake
his
wyfe
/
and
she
departed
from
hym
weddeth
an
other
man
/
shall
he
retourne
to
her
any
more
?
Shall
nat
the
woman
be
poluted
and
defiled
?
Truly
thou
committest
fornication
with
many
louers
/
and
y●t
returne
to
me
(
saith
our
lorde
)
&
I
wyl
receiue
the.
A
maried
man
wyl
nat
take
his
wyfe
agayne
/
whom
parauenture
he
forsoke
for
a
small
faute
or
cause
/
if
she
after
the
deuorce
be
wedded
to
an
other
man
.
For
wedlockis
loue
can
nat
suff●e
the
company
of
an
other
man
.
But
yet
god
doth
nat
disdayne
his
spouse
/
for
whom
he
suffred
dethe
/
whiche
for
him selfe
he
purified
with
his
bloud
/
that
so
ofte
wylfully
runneth
away
/
and
abandoneth
her selfe
to
so
many
vncleane
wyghtis
/
if
she
wyll
returne
agayne
.
And
it
is
no
marueile
/
if
he
haue
ouermoche
mercy
/
that
hath
ouermoche
charite
towarde
vs
.
Paule
bassheth
nat
to
wryte
thus
to
the
Ephesiens
:
We
were
by
nature
the
children
of
anger
/
lyke
as
the
other
were
/
but
god
that
is
riche
in
mercy
/
for
his
ouermoche
charite
/
that
he
loued
vs
with
/
&
whan
we
were
deed
in
syns
,
he
quickened
vs
all
to gether
in
Christe
.
Iohan
in
his
gospell
expresseth
more
playnly
the
ouermoche
charite
of
the
father
towarde
vs
.
God
/
sayth
he
/
loued
so
the
worlde
/
that
he
wolde
gyue
his
onely
begotten
son
,
that
who
so
euer
beleueth
in
hym
shal
nat
perishe
/
but
haue
euerlastyng
lyfe
/
with
whom
Paule
agreeth
tunably
/
writyng
to
the
Romayns
:
whiche
also
spared
nat
his
owne
son
/
but
delyuered
hym
for
vs
all
:
howe
/
gaue
he
nat
vs
all
thynges
with
hym
?
If
this
grea●●harite
/
this
so
great
mercy
/
shulde
be
conferred
to
all
humayn
charite
&
mercy
/
&
to
our
merites
/
wolde
hit
nat
well
seme

?
But
●rewly
it
shall
appere
moche
more
veritable
/
if
we
consyder
what
he
is
/
that
so
loueth
vs
/
&
so
sheweth
his
mercy
on
vs
/
&
what
we
be
/
that
god
vouchesafeth
so
great
honour
.
Let
eche
loke
on
him selfe
/
after
the
name
in
baptisme
gyuen
/
after
Satanas
forsaken
with
his
pompis
/
howe
oft
he
forsaketh
the
sacrament
and
yeldeth
hym
to
th
ennemy
of
his
spouse
,
howe
oft
after
absolucion
of
his
synnis
receiued
of
the
prest
he
slydeth
into
more
greuous
offences
/
ye
how
oft
the
same
day
he
falleth
in
to
them
/
that
he
aborred
?
Lette
no
body
most
dere
bretherne
dissemble
with
hym selfe
/
who
so
euer
stealeth
or
committeth
auoutry
/
who
so
euer

/
who
so
euer
coueteth

/
leaueth
his

Christe
/
turneth
away
from
his
father
,
forsaketh
his
king
,
and
fleeth
away
far
from
his
lorde
.
But
perauenture
we
shall
haue
a
littell
after
a
more
conuenient
place
to
speke
of
these
thynges
.
¶
Nowe
to
th
ende
ye
may
more
fully
vnderstand
/
howe
largely
the
exceding
mercy
of
god
spredeth
,
ye
must
vnderstande
/
that
in
holy
writte
the
cleapyng
of
mercy
signifieth
somtyme
liberalyte
/
somtyme
grace
preuentyng

somtyme

other

agayne
other

healyng

but
very
often
forgyuyng

orels
also
punyshynge

For
surely
after
my
mynde
/
that
the
our
lorde
spek●th
in
Luke
.
Be
mercifull
like
as
your
father
is
mercifull
/
perteyneth
specially
to
liberalite
.
For
perfecte
liberalite
is
/
if
one
do
good
to
his
ennemes
.
Mattheus
saith
hit
more
playnly
in
a
lyke
sayeng
of
our
lorde
:
Be
ye
(
sayth
he
)
perfect

lyke
as
your

celestiall

/
that
maketh
his
son
to
shyne
on

yll
/
and
sendeth
rayne
to

But
bicause
we
haue
nothyng
/
that
we
ne
receyued
frely
of

/
what
euer
we
maye
or
be

what
so
euer

it
is
the

Yea
that

If

Nowe

For

For

shyneth
the

The

for

For

wrought

whan
they
were
nothyng

For
whom
make
the

For

For

For

For
he

he
wold
man
shulde
onely

hym
:
lyke
as
wytnesseth
Paule
writyng

All
thynges
be
yours

ye

&
Christe

And
it
that

wyll

We

And
bothe
in

More

in

sayth
:
Theyr

What

And

A
man
on

iuged
Socrates

they

ꝑtly
laughed
him

and
partly
disdained

Socrates
blamed

.
He

/
all

I

if

But
moche
more
southly
the
right
holy
man
Francis
as●riueth
vnto
diuine
mercy

that
Socrates
yeldeth
to
philosophie

For
on
a
tyme
whan
his
felowe
/
of
him
commanded
so
to

/
had
reuiled
hym
with
what
so
euer

he
toke
it
most
paciently

and
bewayled
him selfe
that
he
was
suche
one
.
An other
tyme
whan
his
felowe
asked
him
why
he
●ompelled
hym
to
make
so
many
lies
vpon
an
innocent
for
none
of
al
these
thynges
were
in
him
he
answered
:
Thou

for
al
these
had
I
ben

yea
&
moche
more
/
nere
that
the

And
the
mercy
of
god
doth
nat
only
preuent
&
prouoke
vs
to
goodnes
/
but
also
helpeth
vs
entprisynge

accompanieth

and
in

gyueth

that
we

Me
semeth
the
apostle
Paule
signifieth
suche
a
maner
of
mercy
in
many
places
/
but
specially
in
gretynges
/
besechyng
grace
and
peace
.
In
pistils
to
Timotheus
also
he
addeth
mercy
.
And
certes
without
preiudice
of
a
better
sentence
/
if
any
haue
it
to
shewe
/
I
thynke
grace
perteyneth
to

for
we
be
called
by
fayth

that
is
beleue
.
This
fayth
is
the
free
gyfte
of
god
/
and
therfore
they
to
whom
it
happeth
,
are
for
it
bonde
to
the
diuine
mercy
.
Mercy
perteyneth
to
dyuers
gyftes
distributed
to
eche

the
measure
of
his
faythe

Peace
longeth
to
the
innocency
of
all

with
out
whiche

frendship
with

can
nat

Ueryly
as
oft
as
we
be
deliuered
from

that
we

we
shulde
nat
repute
it
to

This
teacheth
the

For
our

great
mercy

and
in

is
plentyfull
redempcion

he
wyll

Farther

that
the

Paule

writyng
to

And

In

Where

Let
vs
rather
here
what
Solomon
monisheth
vs
:
My

/
caste

For
hym
that
our

loueth
he
correcteth
:
and
deliteth
in
him
as
a
father
in
his

.
Paule
to
the
Hebrewes
repeteth
this
sentence

changyng
somwhat

For
whom
our
lorde
loueth
he
chastiseth
:
he
scourgeth
forsothe

Therfore
mooste
welbeloued
brethern
as
oft
as
the
storme
of
aduersite
assaileth
you
continue
in
discipline
/
as
Paule
counsaileth
/
knoweyng
that
god
offreth
hym
vnto
you
as
vnto
children
/
here
the
voyce
of
the
father
mercifully
correctyng
his
children
in
the
psalme
.
lxxxviij
.
If
they
violate
my
iusticis
/
and
kepe
nat
my
commandementes
/
I
wyll
visete
theyr
iniquites
by
the
rodde
/
and
their
synnes
by
beatynges
.
But
I
wyl
nat
throwe
my
mercy
from
hym
/
nor
I
wyl
nat
hurt
in
my
trouth
.
And
lyke
wyse
Paule
thretneth
the
chyldren
that
he
loueth
/
sayeng
:
What
wolde
ye
/
shal
I
come
to
you
by
the
rodde
/
or
in
the
spirite
of
hyndnes
and
mekenes
?
But
the
same
Paule
saythe
:
What
nedeth
me
to
iuge
of
them
that
be
without
?
No
voyce
is
more
bytter
and
sharpe
vnto
chyldren

than
to
here
theyr
father
saye
:
Do
what
ye
wyll

I
care
nat

For
thus
sayth
he
that
myndeth
to
disherite
.
Surely
this
fatherly
hyndnes
is
sharper
than
any
chydynge
.
Therfore
as
sufferance
is
cruell
/
so
correction
is
mercifull
.
The
iuste
man
saythe
:
He
shal
correct
me
in
his

and
shal
rebuke
me
/
but
the
oyle
of

synner
shall
nat

What

he
shulde

The
●ame
ought
to
be
demed
of
the
other
examples
of
cruelte
/
that
be
rehersed
in
bokes
of
the
olde
testament
/
as
of
them
that
the
fire
burned
,
the
grounde
swalowed
,
the
sword
distroyed
/
the
serpentes
deuoured
.
For
in
the
gospels
the
examples
of
vengeance
are
fewer
/
but
all
of
mercy
.
Hit
was
an
easy
correction
/
that
Elymas
stryken
with
sodayne
blyndnes
/
was
taught
nat
to
stryue
agaynst
the
worde
of
the
gospell
.
Paule
deliuered
a
fewe
to
Satanas
in
affliction
of
the
fleshe
/
that
the
soule
myght
be
saued
at
the
day
of
dome
:
and
they
corrected
with
shame
,
shulde
turne
to
better
frute
.
There
is
no
example
more
rigorous
than
of
Ananias
and
Saphiras
/
that
by
Peters
correction
fell
downe
deed
sodeynly
/
and
yet
it
is
vncerteyn
whether
theyr
soules
by
dethe
of
the
body
are
saued
.
Finally
the
punishement
that
the
damned
soules
of
yll
lyuers
suffre
in
helle
/
is
lesse
than
theyr
meritis
.
And
there
be
some
/
that
esteme
the
mercy
of
god
so
great
/
that
they
beleue
that
the
wicked
spirites
also
and
damned
soulis
/
ones
after
many
seasons
gone
about
,
shall
be
receiued
to
grace
.
Though
this
opinion
stayeth
on
a
great
autor
/
yet
it
hath
been
reproued
by
the
perfect
fathers
of
our
fayth
:
whiche
onely
we
reherse

this
entent
/
that
we
maye

an

Where

But
Paule
th

If

That

whiche

He

The

cruelnes

do
nothing

where
the

yea
this

And

By

What

Let

All

Yet

What

For

What

Of

that

For

Euery

And
askest

whiche

the

Aknowlege

Amonge

¶
we
haue
spoken
many
thinges
welbeloued
bretherne
of
the
mercy
of
god
/
but
there
is
moche
more
to
saye
/
if
we
shuld
repete
all
thynges
of
holy
scripture
/
whiche
preyse
&
commende
to
vs
the
greatnes
of
diuine
merci
.
The
remenant
is
/
that
I
wyl
exhort
you
in
fewe
wordes
/
that
none
through
presumpcion
make
hym selfe
vnworthy
of
the
mercy
of
god
/
that
is
so
redy
:
or
through
yll
corage
of
mynde
despeyre
of
the
mercy
of
god
.
And
after
we
wyl
shortly
declare
/
what
thynges
prouoke
the
mercy
of
god
.
And
so
make
an
ende
of
our
sermon
/
if
the
mercy
of
our
lord
vouchesafe
to
be
present
and
fauorable
vnto
me
spekyng
to
you
.
God
aborreth
nothynge
so
mo●he
as
pryde
&
obstaclenes
:
for
he
resisteth
the
proude
/
and
gyueth
grace
to
the
humble
.
To
this
blynd
madnes
&
mad
blyndnes
many
are
brought
throughe
prosperite
of
temporal
goodes
/
whiche
as
forgetfull
of
theyr
maker
they
lyuen
after
theyr
pleasure
/
so
moche
vnthoughtfull
to
amende
theyr
lyfe
/
that
they
boost
vngratiousnes
/
stronge
&
myghty
in
wickednes
.
And
as
we
rede
in
an
other
place
:
They
●oste
their
yll
doynge
/
and
reioyce
in
most
vngratious
thynges
:
Wherof
Solomon
writeth
:
The
wicked
man
whan
he
cometh
to
the
bottum
of
yls
/
he
is
careles
.
And
of
suche
folke
Paule
wrytethe
:
God
gyueth
them
a
peruersed
iugement
/
to
do
those
thynges
/
that
be
nat
comely
.
Some
of
them
promise
them selfe
/
that
they
shall
skape
vnpunyshed
for
euer
/
&
despise
holsome
monyshyon
/
and
wyll
nat
here
of
suche
thynges
as
shulde
prouoke
them
to
repentance
/
sayeng
:
Let
god
haue
heuen
hym selfe
/
let
hym
leaue
vs
the
erth
.
Of
these
speketh
Moyses
in
his
canticle
/
whan
a●ter
many
great
benefites
of
god
to
the
people
of
Israell
remembred
/
he
addeth
:
My
welbeloued
is
waxed
grosse
&
kycketh
:
he
is
waxed
fat
and
broode
:
he
hath
forsaken
god
his
maker
,
and
is
departed
from
god
his
sauiour
.
The
psal.
72.
peynteth
this
maner
of
men
:
They
be
nat
in
the
labour
of
men
/
&
they
shall
nat
be
scorged
with
men
.
Bycause
pride
reteineth
them
/
they
be
couered
with
iniquite
&
theyr
wickednes
/
they
be
gone
in
to
affection
of
hert
.
They
haue
thought
and
spoken
leudnes
,
and
they
haue
talked
wickedly
agaynst
almyghty
god
.
They
haue
sette
theyr
mouth
agaynst
the
heuen
/
and
theyr
tonge
is
gone
ouer
in
erthe
.
But
herke
what
ende
foloweth
this
vnhappy
felicite
.
But
yet
for
all
theyr
wyles
thou
hast
begyled
them
/
thou
dyddest
cast
them
downe
whan
they
wold
ari●en
vp
.
Howe
were
they
discon●●ted
?
they
fayled
sodaynly
/
&
perished
for
their
wickednes
.
Good
lorde
in
thy
cite
shalt
reduce
the
image
of
them
to
naught
/
as
the
dreame
of
them
that
ryse
from
slepe
.
On
them
that
folowing
Lucifers
example
ryse
vp
agaynst
god
/
shall
fall
that
our
lorde
thretneth
in
the
gospell
:
I
sawe
Satanas
as
lightnyng
fal
from

.
And
Corozaim
through
abundance
of
transitory
thynges
wickedly
swellyng
,
hereth
:
Wo
to
the
Corozaim
/
for
thou
that
a●te
nowe
lyfte
vp
to

by
thy
pryde
/
shalt
be
plucte
downe
to
helle
by
the
vengeance
of
god
.
Paule
also
somtyme
on
trust
of
his
countrey
lawes
was
fierce
&
proude
/
&
thretned
to
slee
the
disciples
of
our
lorde
/
and
for
●●t
by
the
ryght
hande
of
god
ouerthrowen
to
the
erth
he
hereth
:
It
is
harde
for
the
to
kycke
agaynst
the
pricke
.
But
bycause
in
his
dede
was
errour
and
nat
wayward
malice
/
he
optayned
mercy
.
Assone
as
he
aknowleged
his

/
god
forgaue
hym
/
and
nat
only
forgaue
hym
/
but
also
of
a
wolfe
he
made
hym
a
shepe
/
&
of
a
tyran
apostle
.
But
the
curse
of
god
hangeth
ouer
them
that
continue
in
synne
/
at
laste
beynge
indurated
and
obstinate
therin
/
wyll
nat

:
whiche
say
to
god
:
Go

we

.
Agayne
they
that
Esaie

whiche
our

calling

:
Let

And
they
as

And

agayne
in

:
We
wyll

but
we
wyll

to
these
as
the

Pacience

turneth
in
to

:
and
the
mercy

turned

For
our

The

These

they

What

The

Who

There

Pharao

:
I

What

Cain

My

And
what

Iudas

I

Both
they

both

both

both

/
in
whom
onely
is
mercy
&
plentifull
redention
from

For
thus
ye
rede
of
Cain
:
And
Cain
goynge
away

/
dwelled
a
runne

&c.
And
Iudas
departyng
from
the
banket
of
saynctes
/
returneth
nat
agayne
:
He
is
vnhappy
,
that
so
goeth
from
the
face
of
the
mercy
of
god
/
that
he
returneth
nat
agayne
.
This
is
he
I
thynke
/
that
Ieremias
meaneth
/
whan
he
saith
:
Wepe

ne
mourne

:
with
wepyng
bewayle
hym
/
that

bicause

He
wil
nat
the
deed
to
be
wept
for
/
bicause
somtyme
he
must
aryse
agayne
.
He
with
al
maner
wepyng
shuld
be
wayled
/
that
turneth
hym selfe
away
from

well
of
euerlastyng
lyfe

and
neuer

from

That
prodigall

riottous
chylde
went
away

to
fer
countrey
/
he
left
the
house
of
his
moost
louyng
father

but
he
is
returned
agayne
.
Peter
swarued
far
from
our
lorde
/
whan
he
forsoke
hym
thrise
:
but
shortly
aft
he
came
agayne
/
whan
he
remembred
the
worde
that
Iesus
spake
/
he
began
to
wepe
bytterly
.
He
had
forgotten
hym selfe
/
but
whan
he
came
to
him selfe
agayne
/
he
returned
to
Iesus
.
Lyke
wise
Esaie
crieth
:
Remember
ye
this
/
&
be
ye
confunded
and
you
synners
come
to
your
harte
agayne
.
Peter
remembred
hym selfe
/
and
returned
to
his
hart
:
the
stony
hart
was
taken
from
hym
/
the
pomisehart
,
out
of
whiche
no
drop
of
teares
coude
be
got
:
a
flesshe
hart
was
gyuen
him
/
out
of
whiche
anon
sprange
a
welle
of
teares
/
bytter
for
the
sorowe
of
penance
/
but
holsome
for
the
innocency
to
hym
restored
.
But
Iudas
is
nat
returned
to
Iesus
/
but
he
went
away
to
the
prestes
&
pharisees
/
he
yelded
agayne
that
woful
money
/
from
thens
he
ronne
to
the
snare
/
&
brake
a

.
These
thinges
our
lorde
suffred
amonge
his
disciples
for
our
instruction
.
Ye
se
howe
diuers
the
ende
of
two
apostles
synnyng
is
.
Iudas
that
was
so
oft
prouoked
by
our
lordes
m●kenes
to
be
sory
&
amende
,
stacke
styll
in
his
wicked
purpose
.
But
Peter
at
the
lokyng
of
Iesus
vpo●
hym
/
remembred
our
lordes
sayeng
/
&
by
&
by

and
as
vnworthy

he

nat
to
hange
hym selfe
/
but
to
wepe
/
that
is
/
nat
to
despeyre
/
but
to
remedy
.
Iudas
folowyng
Cain
the
auctour
of
this
mischiefe
/
aknowleged
truly
the
greatnes
of
his
syn
/
but
he
remembred
nat
the
wordes
of
our
lorde
/
that
euery
where
in
holy
scripture
prouoke
vs
to
returne
/
that
stere
vs
to
do
penance
/
and
promise
vs
mercy
.
For
what
padge
is
in
holy
scripture
/
that
soundeth
na●
the
mercy
of
god
?
I
speke
nat
only
of
the
newe
testament
/
that
is
the
lawe
of
grace
/
but
also
of
the
olde
testament
/
that
is
thought
more
rigorous
.
Let
vs
here
howe
gentilly
our
lorde
in
the
prophet
Ieremy
/
that
vnder
the
persone
of
the
spouse
leauyng
her
husbande
,
abandoneth
her
euery
where
to
euery
body
/
he
reclaymeth
his
people
to
penance
:
Turne
to
me
sayth
he
/
ye
children
returnyng
agayne
/
sayth
our
lorde
,
for
I
am
your
husbande
.
And
in
Iob
our
lorde
openeth
the
eare
of
the
sinners
,
that
he
may
correct
them
:
and
speketh
/
that
they
shuld
returne
from
wick●d●es
.
But
they
be
wre●ches
/
that
agaynst
this
our
lordes
voyce
stoppe
theyr
eares
/
lyke
the
de●●e
edder
/
that
stoppeth
her

for

a
shulde

the
voyce
of
the

:
To

/
if

To
day
is
ours
/
as
longe
as
we
be
in
this
lyfe
/
whiche
all

hit
lasteth

our

cesseth
nat

steryng

What

sayd
I
forgyuenes
?
The
mercy
of
god
is
more
whiche
promiseth
to
them
that
returne
a
precious
gyfte
.
For
thus
we
rede
in
Iob
:
If
thou
wylt
returne
to
almyghty
god
/
thou
shalte
be
edifyed
/
and
shalte
voyde
wickednes
far
from
thy
tent
:
for
erth
he
shall
gyue
the
a
flynt
stone
,
&
for
a
flint
stone
golden
ryuers
.
Let
vs
here
the
mercy
of
our
lorde
in
Esaie
steryng
vs
to
repentance
:
If
ye
seke
saith
he
/
seke
/
returne
and
come
:
if
ye
seke
th
ende
of
yuels
/
seke
hit
nat
in
children
of
men
/
in
whom
is
no
saluacion
/
nor
of
enchantours
/
nor
by
hangyng

/
but
aske
it
of
me
/
that
alone
both
may
and
am
redy
to
forgyue
.
Only
returne
from
those
thynges
/
that
ye
fylthily
haue
loued
/
&
turned
/
come
to
me
.
Agayne
in
the
same
prophet
/
entysyng
al
mankynde
to
hym
/
he
sayth
:
Am
nat
I
a
lorde
?
and
there
is
no
more
god
but
I
:
God
iuste
and
holy
is
none
besyde

:
returne
to
me
/
and
ye
shal
be
saued
al
the
costis
of
the
erth
/
for
I
am
god
/
and
there
is
none
other
.
These
wordes
our
lorde
speketh
to
gentils
,
idolworshippers
/
to
mankyllers
,
churche
robbers
/
●echers
,
blasphemers
:
&
thou
wretche
by
dispeyre
woldest
turne
away
from
our
lorde
?
In
olde
tyme
whan
synne
vnpunished
rayned
amonge
folke
/
the
merry
of
god
semed
to
be
drawen
within
the
narow
boundes
of
Iudee
.
But
by
the
gospell
mercy
spred
ouer
all
costes
of
the
worlde
:
In
Ieremye
also
he
thretneth
the
obstinate
/
but
he
offereth
them
forgyuenes
prepared
that
repent
&
amende
:
If
that
folke
sayth
he
,
wyll
do
penance
for
theyr
synne
/
that
I
haue
spoken
agaynst
them
/
I
wil
also
do
penance
vpon
the
harme
/
that
I
thought
haue
done
them
.
And
he
that
a
lyttel
before
thretned
distruction
/
pluckyng
vp
by
the
rotes
/
&
sparklyng
about
/
promyseth
thynges
contrary
,
and
sodaynly
sayth
:
I
wyll
speke
of
the
people
&
realme
/
that
I
may
edifie
it
/
and
that
I
may
plant
it
.
Like
wyse
in
Ezechiel
he
nat
only
promiseth
hym
ꝑdon
that
turneth
agayne
/
but
also
that
he
wold
forget
all
the
synnes
that
he
had
done
before
:
For
whan
he
had
afore
remembred
euery
kynde
of
myschefes
and
damnable
dedes
/
he
addeth
:
If
the
wicked
man
wyl
do
penance
for
al
the
synnes
that
he
hath
wrought
/
and
wil
kepe
al
my
commandementes
/
and
wyl
do
iugement
and
iustice●
he
shal
lyue
and
shall
nat
dye
:
I
wyll
nat
remember
al
the
iniquitees
that
he
hath
wrought
.
Is
it
my
wyll
sayth
our
lorde
/
that
a
synner
shulde
dye
/
and
nat
rather
that
he
shulde
be
conuerted
from
his
sinnes
&
lyue
?
And
a
lytell
lower
:
Be
ye
conuerted
and
do
penance
for
all
your
synnes
/
and
your
wickednes
shal
nat
distroye
you
:
throwe
away
all
your
offences
/
wherby
ye
haue
transgressed
:
and
make
you
a
new
hart
and
a
newe
spirite
.
And
why
die
ye
the
house
of
Israel
?
Bicause
I
will
nat
the
deth
of
the
dyeng
treature
sayth
our
lorde
/
turne
agayne
and
come
.
Why
despeyrest
thou
wretche

sith
god
for
this
sent
downe
his

in
to
this

/
y●
y●
shuldest

He
hym selfe
vndouted
is
the
mercy
of

,
of
whom
Dauid
syngeth
:
O

receyued
thy

Be

He
rysyng
crieth
:
I
wyl
nat

but
rather
that
he
shulde
be

Here

shake
of

that
thou

For

And
if
any
body
suspect
that
this
mercy
of
god
is
nat
ppared
/
nor
redy
/
but
for
these
that
commyt
fewe
&
lyght
syns
/
let
hym
here
what
our
lorde
with
a
clere
voyce
promiseth
:
Whan
so
euer
a
synner
bewayleth
his
synnes
/
I
wyll
forget
al
his
iniquitees
.
He
excepteth
no
kynde
of
synne
,
he
pondreth
nat
the
greatnes
or
multitude
of
offences
.
Be
sory
only
/
and
forgetfulnes
of
all
thy
syns
past
is
redy
.
For
small
offences
/
without
whiche
mans
frailte
lyueth
nat
,
we
call
dayly
vpon
the
mercy
of
god
/
sayeng
:
Dimitte
nobis
debita
nostra
.
&c.
For
gyue
vs
as
we
forgyue
them
that
offende
vs
:
And
we
be
herde
/
if
we
here
our
neyghbour
prayenge
/
that
we
shuld
forgyue
him
.
And
also
amonge
deedly
synnes
is
a
certeyne
order
/
as
amonge
men
some
slepe
nat
very
soundly
/
so
that
with
a
litel
whistrȳg
they
awake
:
there
be
that
slepe
more
depely
/
that
one
must
speke
loude
to
wake
them
:
there
be
that
slepe
most
depely
/
that
vneth
with
great
tuggynge
they
wyl
awake
:
so
with
god
som
be
lighter
deed
/
some
more
greuously
/
and
some
moste
greuously
.
But
no
kynde
of
dethe
is
so
desperate
and
deedly
,
that
he
with
his
voyce
dryueth
nat
awaye
/
at
whose
voyce
also
they
rise
agayne
/
that
were
deed
in
theyr
graues
:
and
no
man
is
taken
with
so
depe
sloumbre
of
deth
/
that
is
nat
by
hym
reysed
.
This
threfold
difference
of
synners
the
deuout
interpreters
of
holy
scriptures
suppose
signified
to
vs
by
thre
corses
that
we
rede
were
reysed
from
dethe
to
lyfe
by
our
lorde
Iesu.
The
maister
of

daughter
/
a

yere
of

he
reysed
in
the
house
/
a
fewe
admytted
to

it

&
he
forbade
to
tell
abrode
that
was
done

These
be
they
/
that
fyrste
nat
of
purposed
malice
/
but
eyther
by
sleprenes
of
age
/
or
by
mans
frailnes

be
so
slyden
in

som
synne

that
they
be
nat

obstinate
in
yll

nor
yet
no
foule
rumour
runneth
of
that

Our

Iesus
lightly
reyseth
those

his
hande
put

hydynge

fylthynes

and
prouidynge
for

But
he
reysed
vppe
the
wyddowes
sonne
with
more
busynes

Nowe

shortly
after
he
skyppeth

These

that

He
sitteth
vp

whiche
forsakyng

lyfteth
vp

to
the
purpose
of
a
better
lyfe

He
speketh
,
that
confessyng
his
foule

aknowlegeth
the
mercy
of
god
.
He
is
yelded
to
his

that
aft
al
remedies
accomplished

is
restored
to
the
communion
of

It
was
no

But

Incredulite

the

that
the

Let

that
he
wyll

Nowe
to

I

thou

Nat

confe●sed

to

Be

Many

it

they

it

Whiche
thynges

that
is

the

Cut

For
god
wyll
nat

Let
vs

the
psalme
writer

before
god

that
made

Many
faste

nat
the
faste
that
our

wylleth
:
many
change

they
change
nat

And
yet
it
is
so

that
these

done
amonge

that
they

whom
our

But
these

vnprofitably

of

Iudas

it

if

by

by
the
most
mild
mercy
of
our

had
embraced
him

And
to
th

our
confession
may
be
more
acceptable
to

Osee
the

sheweth
to
vs

the
fourme
of

:
Take

Take

Take

And

The

We

Ye

Returne

howe

wayes
the
prophet
amp●●fieth
it
.
He
is
gentyll

orels
as
hit
is
in
Greke
mercifull

Though
this
was
inough
that
we
shuld

yet
he
addeth
:
And
hauing

that
we
may
vnderstand

that
he
nat

helpeth

but
also
is
sory
for
our

And
herwith
nat

he
addeth
pacient

that
is
to
say
easy
/
and
nothyng
hasty
to
take
vengeance

lyke
as
humayn

is
lightly
turned

And
yet
o

thou
despeyrest

Herken
therfore
that
foloweth

And
of
moche
mercy

If
thy
sinnes
by
many

mistrust

mercy
is
moche

What
remayneth
nowe
/
but
that
thou
must
be
conuerted

and
go
to
him
entisyng

But
if
the
punyshementes
of
mercy
feare
that
,
herke
&
take
corage
:
And
taking
repentance
of
his
malice

He
calleth
the
peynes
and
afflictions
that
are
due
for
our

malice

He

He
forgyueth

What
resteth
than

nothyng

but
that
thou

Undouted
this
is
it
that
foloweth
in
Iohel
.
And
he
shall
leaue

Truly
this
is
it
that
Osee
sayd
:
The
calues
of

that

If
any

shuld
offende
a

/
howe
harde
is
the
making
at

howe
mindeth

howe

howe

falleth
he
in

howe

for

:
and
yet
if
they
so

them
in

they

God
so
oft

willingly
prouoketh

he
entiseth

he
perdoneth

&
with
his

he

enbrace

Undouted
the

is
it
that
he
promiseth
in
zacarie
:
Turne

the

of

and
I

What
is
that

Turne

aknowlege

What

By

of

No
man
coude
holsomely
hate

if
god
granted
hit

except
he
take
away
the
stony
harte

put

but
if
for

But
why
take
I
this
labour
to
reherce
some
olde
places
of
scripture

whiche
declaren
the
marueylous
mercy
of

All

of

And
where
be

that

coude
they

Cxvij

Aknowlege
to
god
/
that
he
is
good

and
that
his

in
all

Where
is
mad
Manicheus

that
taught
in

that
he
that
speketh

louyngly

that
dyd

The

distroyed

In

He

The

Like

we
rede
that

So
redy
his

If

For
by

For

this

,
wherwith

that
he
might
drawe

And
in

also
/
whan
wicked

by

prouoked
the

The

&
our

at

O

For

:
And
why

Agayne
in

he
bewayleth

that

al

had

abrode
his

to
the

without

Agayne
in

:
My

Lyke

What

Our

In

he
wepeth

Hierusalem

the
whiche
through
obstinacy
of

caused
distruction
of

Howe

In

He
the

exhorteth
the

,
that

Beleue

He

Why

Why

Why

Christ
is
the
wisedome
of
god
.
This
wisedome
as
sayth
Solomon
departed
out
of
her
fathers
house
/
came
in
to
this
worlde
,
preacheth
openly
/
and
her
voyce
is
herde
in

.
She
crieth
in
the
fronte
of
multitudes
/
in
the
wickettes
of
the
cite
gates
,
she
pronounseth
out
her
wordes
/
sayeng
:
Howe

Turne

Beholde
I
wyl
put
forth
my

shall
shewe

What
thynge
is
more
folishe

than
for
vayne
transitory
thinges
to
be
depriued
of
euerlastyng
goodes
?
What
is
greatter
wysedome
/
than
by
short
sufferance
to
get
immortalite
?
Therfore
they
be
all
mad
that
continue
in
synne
:
they
be
wyse
that
chaunge
theyr
lyfe
in
to
better
.
With
what
great
labours
serche
we
out
the
most
vile
thyng
amonge
meta●s
/
and
so
great
treasure
offered
and
frely

we
despisen
/
or
that
is
more
folyshe
/
we
despeyren
?
God
is
riche
in
mercy
.
The
treasure
of
humayn
riches
is
consumed
in
gyuynge
away
:
the
treasure
of
mercy
can
nat
be
consumed
.
And
this
wyll
I
adde
,
that
I
may
the
more
put
euery
body
from
despeyre
of
pardone
.
God
hath
bounde
his

and
as
Paule

He

if

that

For
so
he
speketh
in
Esaie
to
the
people
defyled
on
euery
syde
:
Be

be

And

If

If

Who

What

If

No

Saluacion

The

Only
shut

Nowe
if
a

shuld
say
thus
to

or
to

:
What
so

hitherto

I
forgyue

you
al

mercy

so
they
from

wolde
absteyne
from

:
wolde
nat
euery

of

wonderfull

,
that
neither
cruelly
punisheth
their

nor

But
god
yea
with

entiseth

.
Ye

eate
sayth
he

the

But
they
be
vtterly
vnworthy
to

of

/
that
by

vngratious

offende

But
o
howe
moche
more
precyous
is
it
that
the
gospell
promiseth
:
I
wyl

I

wherby

This

O

Thou

why

Why

Do

the

The

And
there

Do

And

Kepe

None

The

Nor

The

For

Truly

But

But

that
they
despise
nat
the
goodnes
of
god
:
but
if
they
hap
to
slide
agayne
/
by
and
by
they
shulde
hast
to
remedy
/
before
the
disease
by
continuance
waxe
vncurable
.
Some
in
olde
tyme
with
right
great
peril
forbare
baptisme
euen
to
the
last
day
of
theyr
lyfe
/
whom
some
called
bad
christiens
/
and
some
/
yll
watered
/
as
christiens
nat
very
true
:
but
with
more
ieꝑdy
the
synner
prolōgeth
the
remedy
of
penance
/
that
is
euery
where
redy
.
The
christener
is
nat
alway
present
/
but
lyeng
in
thy
bed
thou
mayst
confesse
thyn
vnrightousnes
to
our
lorde
/
and
purpose
to
amende
thy
lyfe
.
One
is
nat
alway
present
to
washe
thy
body
:
teares
be
alway
present
,
with
whiche
thou
mayst
washe
the
fylthes
of
thy
soule
.
And
nat
without
a
cause
a
dout
is
/
whether
the
baptisme
be
effectual
/
wherby
whan
ther
is
no
hope
of
life
/
and
were
in
panges
of
deth
/
were
rather
spryncled
with
water
than
baptised
.
For
they
shewed
that
they
wolde
a
synned
continually
if
they
myght
haue
lyued
styll
.
But
moche
more
southly
great
lerned
men
doute
/
whether
penance
be
fruteful
/
that
is
prolonged
a
purpose
/
nowe
departyng
hence
they
take
it
/
and
wold
nat
take
it
/
except
deth
compelled
them
.
For
lyke
as
grounde
ofte
moysted
with
heuenly
raine
,
bringeth
forth
naught
els
to
his
tyller
/
than
thornes
&
wydes
/
is
cursed
&
caste
in
to
the
fyre
:
so
god
other
while
for
his
goodnes
obstacly
despised
,
endueth
them
with
a
peruersed
mynde
.
Wherfore
the
surest
way
most
dere
brethern
is
/
nat
to
prolonge
the
mendyng
of
the
lyfe
/
but
by
&
by
at
the
voyce
of
our
lorde
,
callyng
vs
to
do
of
the
old
man
with
his
dedes
and
desyres
/
lest
our
lord
so
oft
nat
herde
/
wyll
nat
here
vs
agayne
callynge
to
hym
.
Dredeful
is
the
voice
,
wherwith
he
thretneth
them
that
wyll
nat
here
him
mercifully
callyng
.
Bicause
sayth
he
I
called
you
/
&
ye
turned
away
:
I
reched
forth
my
hande
/
&
ther
was
none
that
wold
se
it
:
ye
despised
al
my
counsayle
/
and
set
naught
by
my
rebukes
:
I
also
wyl
laugh
and
scorne
in
your
distruction
,
whan
it
shal
fall
on
you
that
ye
drad
.
Whan
sodayne
calamite

whan

than
they
wyll

me
/
&
I
wyl
nat
here
them
.
They
shal
arise
yerly
/
and
they
shal
nat
fynde
me
,
bicause
they
hated
my
lernyng
/
and
wolde
nat
conceyue
the
drede
of
their
lorde
/
&
wolde
nat
rest
vpon
my
counsaile
,
and
wold
withdrawe
from
al
my
correction
.
God
punisheth
diuers
wayes
,
that
he
might
correct
vs
.
At
last
whan
our
obstaclenes
hath
ouercome
al
remedies
he
forsaketh
vs
as
desperate
/
and
leaueth
vs
with
our
owne
fre

Like
as
a
phisicion
assaynge
al
that
his
crafte
can
to
put
away
the
disease
/
whan
he
seeth
the
pacient
forsake
all

/
at

he
leaueth
hym
with

Mercy

The

As

Therfore

But

Here
the

of
the

Hebrewe
/
what

Turne

Pray
the

and
mynishe

Returne

and
turne
away
from
thyn
vngratiousnes

and
knowe

of

/
and
stande
in

lot
of
proposicion
and
speche
of

/
go
in
to
the
partes
of
the
iuste
worlde
with
the
lyuyng
&
gyuyng
confession
to
god
.
Thou
shuldest

of

The
confession
of
one
deed
perisheth
as
nothyng
.
Thou
shalt
confesse
the
liuyng
.
Alyue
and
in
helth
thou
shalt
confesse
/
&
preyse
god
/
and
glorifie
in
his

/
o
howe
great
is
the
mercy
of
our
lorde
/
and
his
fauour
to
them
that

Thou
herest
the
great
mercy
of
god
is
redy
/
but
that
is
if
thou
aliue
&
in
heale
wylt
be
confessed
to
our
lorde
.
But
what
shal
we
say
of
them
/
whose
bodyes
be
vnable
to
synne
/
&
yet
the
mynde
putteth
nat
away
the
synfull
appetite
:
and
whan
by
reason
of
age
the
body
is
nere
deed
/
that
they
can
nat
do
wycked
and
fylthy
actes
/
yet
they
leaue
nat
to
speke
leudly
?
Howe
shulde
they
be
confessed
to
our
lorde
alyue
/
that
leaue
sooner
to
lyue
than
to
synne
?
But
thou
yonge
man
in
thy
flowryng
age
/
why
prolōgest
the
mendyng
of
thy
lyfe
/
dayes
/
monethes
/
&
yeres
?
If
thy
body
were
diseased
with
the
dropsy
/
and
thou
haddest
before
the
redy
a
certayne
sure
remedy
for
that
disease
/
woldest
thou
say
/
The
next
yere
I
wyl
heale
my
sickenes
?
I
knowe
wel
thou
woldest
nat
be
so
mad
/
but
thou
woldest
haste
most
gredily
to
be
healed
.
And
in
the
diseases
of
the
soule
moche
more
perillous
/
tariest
/
driuest
forthe
from
day
to
day
/
from
that
day
to
that
/
yea
thou
defferrest
thy
saluacion
to
the
day
of
thy
dethe
?
And
who
is
thy
surete
,
that
thou
shalt
lyue
tyl
to
morowe
?
But
these
thinges
be
nat
spoken
/
to
th
ende
that
any
shulde
despeyre
of
forgyuenes
/
but
to
th
entent
we
wold
wrest
frō●che
the
careles
continuance
in
synne
.
There
is
synne
/
that
neither
in
this
worlde
nor
in
the
worlde
to
come
,
is
forgyuen
.
God
forbyd
that
any
of
vs
shulde
swarue
so
far
wyde
.
And
therfore
the
most
sure
thyng
is
to
eschewe
synne
.
The
next
is
,
that
by
&
by
we
put
it
away
by
penance
/
that
is
wrought
vnskylfully
.
A
good
man
falleth
.vij.
tymes
on
a
day
,
but
he
riseth
agayne
:
al
though
this
be
spoken
by
veniall
syns
.
And
therfore
our
lorde
ofte
tymes
thretneth
vs
sharply
in
holy
scripture
/
lest
on
trust
of
forgyuenes
redy
/
we
shuld
walowe
in
to
the
myer
of
vngratious
dedes
.
And
therfore
the
plaister
of
penance
is
nat
gyuen
,
that
we
wylfully
shulde
continue
in
our
disease
/
but
lest
he
whiche
perchaunce
falleth
shuld
be
lost
for
euer
.
In
Amos
our
lorde
oft
thondreth
agaynst
thre
or
foure
wyckednessis
:
Shall
nat
I
abhorre
them
?
It
is
wyckednes
to
thynke
yll
.
Here
by
&
by
we
shulde
take
repentance
/
but
〈◊〉
is
greatter
wickednes
to
wyl
to
perfourme
it
that
thou
dyddest
mynde
:
at
lest
from
the
grice
the
fote
shuld
step
to
better
.
But
the
greuoust
offence
is
/
fylthyly
to
perfourme
it
that
thou
dyddest
wickedly
purpose
.
And
here
we
be
neither
sory
nor
amende
/
but
we
put
to
it
the
fourth
wickednes
/
accustomyng
vs
in
●yns
/
&
heapyng
syns
vpon
syns
.
Nowe
at
this
poynt
may
nat
our
lord
wel
abhorre
vs
?
Yes
truly
/
nere
that
his
mercy
passed
his
iustice
.
Beholde
what
foloweth
after
so
sharpe
thretnynges
in
the
same
prophet
:
This
sayth
our
lorde
to
the
house
of
Israel
:
Seke
/
&
ye
shal
fynd
me
/
seke
your
lorde
&
come
.
Let
vs
here
our
lorde
thretnyng
/
lest
we
shuld
syn
:
let
vs
here
our
lorde
reclaymyng
vs
/
that
we
despeyre
nat
.
Orels
wo
to
vs
if
he
shuld
do
to
vs
that
he
thretneth
by
the
ꝓphete
:
and
after
the
thyrde
or
fourth
wickednes
he
shulde
turne
away
from
vs
his
mercy
/
&
leaue
vs
alone
to
our
wyl
.
Yea
with
many
of
vs
it
shulde
go
yuel
/
if
our
lorde
shulde
turne
his
face
away
after
the
thousande
wickednes
.
But
by
&
by
as
his
rightousnes
beginneth
to
waxe
rigorous
.
Mercy
steppeth
forth
&
sayth
:
O
lord
god
be
merciful
:
I
pray
the
/
who
shal
lyft
vp
Iacob
for
he
is
a
babe
?
And
agayne
:
O
lorde
god
I
pray
the
cesse
who
shall
reyse
vp
Iacob
for
he
is
a
babe
?
Thus
Mercy
our
best
defender
pledeth
the
cause
of
our
frailnes
.
Nowe
here
howe
redy
forgyuenes
is
to
one
repentyng
&
amendyng
.
Our
lorde
sayth
he
/
hath
had
pite
vpon
hym
.
It
shal
nat
be
/
sayd
our
lorde
.
Ye
se
howe
soone
he
thretnynge
vengeance
repenteth
,
if
we
truly
wolde
repent
our
misdedes
.
It
shall
nat
be
/
sayd
our
lorde
.
I
praye
you
,
what
mother
is
so
lightly
pleased
with
her
child
?
Therfore
syth
we
haue
a
lorde
so
easy
to
please
/
&
an
aduocatrice
so
effectual
/
what
thing
is
there
/
why
any
despeyryng
of
hym selfe
/
shulde
eyther
continue
in
sinnes
/
or
with
Iudas
flee
to
hange
hym selfe
?
Euen
for
the
same
purpose
our
lorde
by
al
meanes
myndyng
our
saluacion
/
suffered
most
excellent
&
most
approued
men
to
fall
in
greuous
synnes
/
that
by
theyr
example
he
myght
corage
&
conforte
vs
to
hope
of
perdone
.
What
thinge
in
holy
scripture
is
more
laudable
than
kynge
Dauid
?
He
was
a
kyng
he
was
a
prophet
,
he
was
a
man
to
goddes
mynde
/
of
his
linage
Christe
was
promised
.
But
into
howe
foule
/
in
to
howe
many
folde
a
synne
dyd
so
great
a
man
fall
?
He
hereth
of
Nathan
the
rebuke
and
cruell
thretnynges
of
our
lorde
.
But
Dauid
with
two
wordes
turneth
all
this
anger
of
god
in
to
mercy
.
He
sayd
:
I
haue
offended
agaynst
my
lorde
:
And
forthe
with
Nathan
sayde
:
Our
lorde
also
hathe
transported
thy
syn
thou
shalt
nat
dye
.
The
thretninges
be
of
a
length
/
that
he
may
correct
/
but
howe
swyft
is
the
voyce
of
mercy
:
Thou
shalt
nat
dye
?
Like
wise
by
Esaie
Ezechias
he●eth
:
Thou
shalt
dye
,
&
shalt
nat
lyue
.
Ezechias
wept
&
made
great
lamentacion
.
The
prophet
the
messanger
of
dethe
was
nat
yet
gone
halfe
the
kynges
court
/
but
the
mercy
of
our
lorde
called
him
agayne
,
sayeng
:
Returne
backe
/
and
say
to
Ezechias
capitayne
of
my
people
:
This
sayth
our
lorde
the
god
of
Dauid
thy
father
/
I
haue
herde
thy
prayers
/
&
haue
seen
thy
wepyng
/
and
I
haue
healed
the.
The
thyrde
day
after
this
thou
shalt
go
in
to
the
temple
of
our
lorde●
The
thyrde
boke
of
kynges
wytnesseth
the
same
of
Achab.
There
was
nat
suche
an
other
as
Achab
/
whiche
was
solde
to
th
entent
he
might
do
mischife
in
the
sight
of
our
lorde
.
And
he
hereth
:
Thou
has●
kylde
/
&
more
ouer
hast
possessed
:
As
whan
he
had
slayne
Na
both
he
occupied
his
vineyarde
:
but
a●
last
he
was
so
afrayde
with
the
cruel
thretnynges
that
he
rente
his
clothes
/
&
ware
a
sherte
of
heare
,
he
fa●sted
,
&
slept
in
wollen
,
&
wandred
hangynge
downe
his
heed
.
A●hab
was
froward
,
he
had
oft
despise●
our
lorde
rebukyng
hym
,
he
had
heaped
syns
vpon
syns
:
and
at
last
he
was
rather
feared
with
drede
of
mischefes
hangyng
ouer
hym
/
than
myndyng
to
repent
&
amende
:
and
yet
our
lorde
of
excedynge
mercy
speketh
to
Hely
:
Hast
nat
seen
how
Achab
hath
humbled
hym
before
me
:
bycause
he
hath
humbled
him
●elfe
for
my
sake
,
I
wyl
bringe
in
no
mischiefe
in
his
days
.
If
that
might
of
false
repentance
b●
so
great
/
that
it
can
wrest
the
reuengyng
sword
out
of
the
hande
of
god
/
what
shal
the
mynde
do
,
truly
changed
in
to
a
contrary
affection
and
nowe
nat
for
drede
of
punishement
,
but
for
the
loue
of
god
abhorreth
that
he
miswrought
:
For
that
entent
he
suffred
Peter
/
whiche
he
had
apointed
chiefe
of
his
churche
/
openly
to
fall
.
He
wept
only
/
&
opteined
mercy
.
Whan
he
delyuered
his
shepe
to
hym
to
fede
/
for
whiche
he
suffred
deth
/
dyd
he
cast
in
his
tethe
/
the
offence
of
thrise
forsakyng
our
lorde
?
No
forsothe
/
for
nowe
al
that
was
so
washed
away
with
teares
that
there
remayned
nat
a
steppe
in
our
mercifull
lordes
remembrance
.
Paule
the
ꝑsecuter
of
our
lordis
churche
was
ouerthrowen
,
&
was
made
the
teacher
of
nacions
.
We
haue
great
examples
of
them
that
synned
/
and
eke
of
them
that
repented
/
we
ought
nat
by
example
of
any
to
be
prouoked
to
synne
/
lest
we
shulde
tempte
our
lorde
/
but
if
any
shulde
hap
to
be
attrapped
by
synne
/
he
hath
examples
of
repentance
/
lest
he
shuld
despeire
.
But
they
do
waywardly
/
that
wyll
nat
folowe
hym
in
repentyng
/
whiche
they
folowed
in
synnynge
.
Howe
many
princes
be
ther
that
smyle
at
theyr
auoutres
and
manslaughters
for
the
example
of
Dauid
?
Al
though
in
Dauid
were
so
many
excellent
vertues
/
that
this
offence
myght
haue
ben
forgyuen
in
recompence
of
them
:
but
wolde
to
god
lyke
as
they
folowe
hym
offendyng
/
they
wold
so
folowe
hym
eke
repentyng
.
He
spred
abrode
his
synne
through
al
nacions
of
the
worlde
:
and
despised
the
delectacions
of
the
court
/
&
for
purpul
he
weareth
a
sherte
of
heare
/
and
as
bread
he
●ateth
ashes
/
&
mingleth
his
drinke
with
wepyng
:
euery
night
he
wassheth
his
bed
with
teares
/
and
moysteth
his
couerled
with
weping
.
And
he
was
nat
ashamed
to
say
and
synge
this
verse
of
penance
to
al
synners
:
Haue
mercy
vpon
me
lorde
after
thy
great
mercy
.
And
after
the
multitude
of
thy
mercies
put
awaye
my
wickednes
.
He
was
iuge
/
and
gaue
sentence
of
deth
agaynst
hym selfe
.
For
greatly
disdaynyng
he
saythe
:
Our
lorde
lyueth
/
for
he
is
the
childe
of
dethe
that
hath
done
this
thynge
.
He
coude
nat
more
euidently
be
condemned
:
than
by
his
owne
worde
.
God
was
iuge
/
and
yet
as
the
persone
were
changed
/
he
committed
the
iugement
to
hym
that
was
gylty
.
The
iuge
was
taken
with
a
trip
/
and
he
ouercame
that
committed
to
hym
the
iugement
:
Dauid
was
happily
ouercome
/
god
ouercame
mercifully
/
whan
he
shewed
the
synner
to
hym selfe
/
that
had
forgot
hym selfe
.
Before
as
a
conquerour
/
and
dronken
with
vnhappy
prosperite
/
he
accomplished
his
pleasure
with
the
woman
that
he
loued
,
he
delited
in
his
moste
swete
childe
/
but
whan
he
was
conuerted
to
our
lorde
/
than
at
laste
he
sawe
where
he
was
:
and
what
difference
was
bitwene
a
rightous
man
&
an
vnrightous
,
like
as
an
other
prophecy
teacheth
.
Whan
a
sinner
with
al
his
hart
aknowlegeth
his
fylthynes
/
&
confesseth
hym selfe
worthy
of
punyshement
/
than
our
lorde
is
iustified
/
and
ouercometh
whan
he
is
iuged
/
that
is
/
whan
he
offreth
the
iugement
to
man
as
to
be
iuged
him selfe
.
But
they
that
ordeyne
theyr
owne
rightousnes
/
make
god
in
a
maner
vniuste
&
a
lier
/
whiche
wyl
that
his
mercy
shuld
be
knowen
in
euery
man
,
and
reioyceth
to
turne
our
vnrightousnes
in
to
his
glory
:
seyng
where
synne
was
plentiful
there
his
fre
liberalite
abundeth
.
The
olde
Adam
dyd
nat
so
,
but
whan
he
was
called
to
confession
/
he
laide
the
blame
on
his
wife
.
Like
wise
she
called
to
confession●
blamed
the
serpent
.
If
they
coude
haue
song
the
songe
of
Dauid
,
God
haue
mercy
on
me
,
they
had
nat
ben
banished
paradise
.
Cain
nat
goyng
out
of
kynde
/
what
sayth
he
/
prouoked
of
our
lorde
to
repent
.
Am
I
my
brothers
keper
?
If
he
had
sayd
,
I
haue
synned
/
haue
mercy
:
and
if
he
had
sayde
hit
with
al
his
harte
,
the
mercy
of
god
was
redy
.
There
is
a
carnall
sorowe
/
that
engendreth
deth
/
suche
as
Iudas
had
:
but
agayne
there
is
a
godly
sorowe
/
that
bryngeth
forth
saluacion
and
sure
ioye
.
Paule
tenderly
louedde
all
his
/
yet
he
reioyseth
that
he
had
caste
the
Corinthies
in
suche
a
sorowe
/
he
damned
/
that
had
a
do
with
his
fathers
wyfe
/
as
out
of
suche
sorow
/
as
after
a
bytter
playster
foloweth
continual
ioye
.
And
in
the
mean
while
sure
hope
of
saluacion
myngl●d
with
repentance
tempereth
the
bitternes
of
the
sorowe
.
So
Dauid
/
whan
he
had
simply
confessed
his
synne
,
and
the
deserued
wreache
of
god
,
herke
howe
moche
hope
he
conceyued
of
the
mercy
of
god
:
O
lorde
sayde
he
/
spryncle
me
with
isope
/
and
I
shal
be
clensed
/
thou
shalt
washe
me
/
and
I
shal
be
made
whiter
than
the
snowe
.
Nat
of
his
owne
good
dedes
,
but
by
sprin●lyng
of
the
immaculate
lambes
blud
he
promiseth
hym selfe
purenes
,
and
whan
he
aknowleged
hym selfe
from
his
mothers
wombe
with
spottes
defyl●d
/
yet
out
of
that
washing
he
hopeth
to
haue
fairenes
of
innocency
/
that
shulde
passe
the
snowe
in
whitenes
.
And
he
dothe
nat
only
hope
to
opteyne
innocency
agayne
/
but
also
that
the
wo
of
penance
shuld
turne
in
●o
spiritual
ioye
.
He
sayth
:
Thou
shalt
gyue
ioy
&
gladnes
to
my
heryng
/
&
my
humble
bones
shal
lepe
for
ioye
.
Yelde
to
me
the
gladnes
of
thy
saluacion
,
and
confyrme
me
with
thy
principal
spirite
.
O
wonderfull
trust
of
a
synner
,
&
yet
more
largely
he
promyseth
hym selfe
somwhat
:
And
my
tonge
sayth
he
/
shal
shewe
outwarde
with
great
mirth
thy
iustice
.
O
lorde
thou
shalt
open
my
lyppes
/
and
my
mouth
shal
shewe
thy
preyse
.
Whan
he
hath
proued
the
mercy
of
our
lorde
so
great
/
he
wyl
eke
exhort
other
that
they
shuld
repent
&
amende
.
So
our
lorde
sayd
to
Peter
:
And
thou
conuerted
somtyme
confirme
thy
bretherne
.
Dauid
shulde
haue
perished
/
if
he
had
commytted
hym selfe
to
Iustice
/
but
he
in
that
part
to
weake
called
vpon
mercy
,
&
therfore
the
mercies
of
our
lorde
he
syngeth
for
euer
.
They
that
plede

if

And
truly
may

he

But
to
vs

dere

is
a

fer

that

nat

And
truly

Here

Hither

There

that

Who

The

And

But

but
what
so
euer

done
to

He
that
teacheth
him

he

merciful
toward
his

and
eyther
he
recompenceth
or
prouoketh
the

And
truely
it
is
vnsyttynge
the
mercy
of
Christiens
to
be
of

A

But
what
our

ought
to
be
the
gospel
teacheth
:
Be
merciful
/
that
ye

that

If
the
mercy

/
mercy
of

suffiseth

But
if

&
suffereth

If

semeth

And

The

Go

what

:
I

He

The

For

:
What

Shal
I

What

May

the

O

What

to

Paule

If

Abraham
ꝓfer●d
a

that
was

he
profreth

if
any

of

deliuereth
his

And
yet
charite
is
more
acceptable
than
that

And
what
thynge
els
is

towarde
our

but
mercy
?
Therfore
sythe
all
we
continually
in
all
thynges
nede
the

of

/
our

ought
styl
to
be

howe

of

mercifully

&

bearyng
the

we
may
fulfyl
the
lawe
of
Christe
/
that
rather
requireth
mercy
than
sacrifice
/
and
wylleth
vs
to
redeme
his

with
mercy
shewed
on
our
neyghbour
.
But
as
my
mynde
excedyngly
reioyseth
whan
I
cast
with
my selfe
,
how
great
the
mercy
of
our
lord
is
toward
vs

and
howe
redy
for
vs
he
wold
it
shuld
be
,
so
an
huge
great
sorowe
ꝑceth
myn
harte
/
as
ofte
as
I
behold
inwardly
/
how
scant
the
mindyng
of
mercy
is
amonge
Christiens
.
If
we
were
truly
mercifull
our
liberalite
wold
reche
euen

/
we
shuld
cast
coles
of

that
they

at

shulde

Nowe

Christiens
by

roberies

,
oppressions

more
cruelly
greue

If

Who

Nowe
by

pouerte
we
go
about
to
get
our

our

the

I

Howe

how

the

of

how

All

And

wilfully

And
the

If

Turne

She
turneth

The

whan
the

of

let

Our

The

So

So

Whan

Wyll
