Thus
endeth
the
prologue
of
this
booke
named
Cordyall
.
Whiche
treateth
of
the
four
last
and
fynall
thynges
that
ben
to
come
.
And
here
begynneth
the
fyrste
parte
of
the
sayd
four
last
thynges
.
THe
fyrst
parte
of
the
four
last
thynges
.
wherof
the
remembraunce
withdraweth
a
man
fro
synne
is
deth
present
or
temporell
And
therfore
seyth
saynt
Bernard
in
a
bok
called
the
Myrour
of
monkes
.
The
most
souerayn
phylosophye
is
to
thynke
all
way
on
deth
.
And
he
that
beryth
it
in
his
mynde
in
what
place
so
euer
he
go
shall
neuer
synne
.
Saynt
Austyn
sayth
in
his
boke
of
exortacyons
.
There
is
noo
thyng
that
soo
well
reuoketh
and
calleth
a
man
from
synne
as
often
Remembraunce
of
dethe
.
Certayn
it
is
that
thynge
whiche
causeth
a
man
to
be
humble
to
dysprayse
hymselfe
and
to
do
penaunce
.
¶
How
Remembraunce
of
dethe
maketh
a
man
to
be
humble
&
meke
.
¶
The
fyrst
chapitre
of
the
fyrst
parte
pryncypal
I
Say
that
recordyng
the
Remembraunce
of
deth
maketh
a
man
to
be
meke
&
humble
hym selfe
.
And
therfor
sayth
Saynt
Austyn
in
the
book
that
he
made
of
our
lord
.
A
man
knowyng
himselfe
to
be
mortall
.
it
shal
put
from
hym
all
maner
of
pryde
In
very
trouthe
all
our
other
thynges
as
well
good
as
badde
be
incerteyne
.
But
of
deth
oonly
we
maye
be
well
ensured
And
how
be
it
that
the
hour
therof
to
vs
is
hydde
and
incerteyn
.
Yet
alway
she
is
approchyng
&
shal
surely
come
without
longe
taryeng
.
And
to
this
purpose
sayth
Ecclesiastics
in
his
.xiiii.
chapitre
.
Bere
well
in
remembrance
that
deth
shal
not
tarye
.
It
is
also
wryten
in
Thoby
that
deth
hasteth
&
that
there
may
no
fleeng
●uayle
.
Also
by
the
comune
lawe
of
nature
euery
man
must
paye
his
mortall
trybute
.
Saynt
Bernarde
sayth
in
a
sermon
O
wretched
man
why
doost
thou
not
dyspose
thy selfe
to
be
redy
at
all
houres
/
thynke
that
thou
arte
now
dede
/
lyns
thou
knowest
well
that
necessaryly
it
behoueth
the
to
dye
.
Remembre
wel
how
thyn
eyen
shall
tourne
in
thy
hede
&
the
veynes
breke
in
thy
body
.
&
thyn
herte
shal
deuyde
in
two
partes
by
the
righte
sharpe
anguysshe
and
payne
of
deth
.
Who
is
he
thenne
that
ought
not
to
drede
&
make
hymselve
humble
.
whan
he
knoweth
certaynely
that
he
must
retourne
and
become
erthe
.
Now
truly
there
shall
be
none
excepcyon
of
persones
.
But
al
shall
passe
that
waye
For
as
it
is
wryten
in
the
seconde
booke
of
kynges
.
Whe
shall
all
dye
/
and
the
erthe
shall
swolowe
vs
as
it
dooth
water
cast
therupon
/
whiche
neuer
retourneth
.
We
rede
also
that
this
worde
(
Mors
)
in
latyn
maye
well
so
be
called
.
For
it
is
a
bytter
morsell
vnto
all
men
in
soo
moche
that
no
creature
maye
escape
it
.
And
therfore
it
is
sayd
in
the
boke
of
dyspraysyng
of
the
worlde
.
Dethe
cutteth
doun
and
dystroyeth
all
thynges
create
and
made
in
fleshe
.
She
bothe
beteth
doun
the
hye
men
&
lowe
/
for
the
hath
domynacion
vpon
worldly
lyuyng
thynges
She
regneth
Imperyally
ouer
the
nobles
and
dredeth
no
lyuyng
creature
/
for
her
power
is
comyn
ouer
prynces
and
dukes
.
She
taketh
aswell
the
yonge
as
the
olde
.
And
whan
she
smyteth
/
she
hath
mercy
of
no
creature
.
Alle
thynges
create
in
flesshe
peryssheth
vnder
her
honde
Nor
ther
be
none
so
stronge
/
but
that
the
beteth
them
doun
without
rescuse
.
And
ther
is
no
thynge
beryng
lyfe
/
but
that
she
destroyeth
and
wasteth
it
without
ony
escape
.
And
the
neyther
taketh
mede
allyaunce
ne
frendshyp
.
What
shall
I
shore
saye
/
euydently
dethe
spareth
no
body
.
For
neyther
poore
ne
ryche
shall
mowe
escape
out
of
her
cheyne
.
Certaynly
I
vnderstande
now
that
dethe
is
th
ende
of
all
worldely
lyuynge
thynges
.
And
therfore
it
is
wryten
in
Ietha
the
Poete
.
That
deth
taketh
away
and
dooth
anyntyse
all
quycke
thynges
.
Lo
it
is
not
sayde
that
the
wyse
Cathon
and
the
good
Socrates
ben
dede
.
Whiche
gyueth
example
that
there
is
neyther
scyence
ne
doctryne
that
may
preserue
one
fro
the
ruynouse
darte
of
deth
.
It
is
writen
in
Ecclesiastes
in
the
seconde
chapitre
.
Aswell
dyeth
the
wyse
man
as
the
fole
.
It
is
wryten
in
Isaye
in
the
.xxxiii.
chapitre
.
Were
are
now
become
the
lettred
men
.
where
ben
the
prechers
of
the
worde
of
god
.
Where
be
they
that
were
wont
to
teche
the
childern
.
These
questions
implyed
as
moche
as
to
saye
they
lyue
not
/
&
be
goon
&
paste
in
the
comyn
course
with
other
&
dede
of
this
worlde
.
Now
by
cause
Ietha
named
but
only
the
two
afore
specyfyed
.
I
praye
the
telle
me
/
Where
is
now
Hector
of
Troye
/
where
is
become
Iulius
Cesar
/
where
is
Alexander

where

Auycenne

where

Arystocle

&
where
is
Virgyle
the
right

/
be
not
all
these
dede
and
passed
out
of
this
worlde
as
pylgryms
and
gestes
.
&
departed
hens
in
a
right
short
space
.
yes
certaynly
ther
is
not
one
lefte
a
lyue
of
them
.
al
their
Ioyes
were
but
vanytees
and
are
fayled
/
&
theyr
dayes
be
consumed
&
passed
.
&
as
the
Psalter
seyth
man
passed
his
dayes
resemblyng
a
shadowe
&
one
tyme
he
is
hole
&
stronge
of
all
his
membres
/
&
on
the
morow
seke
&
leyde
in
the
erthe
.
And
as
Cathon
sayth
.
Our
lyfe
is
gyuen
vnto
vs
to
be
full
of
doubte
and
of
fragylyte
.
This
appereth
also
clerely
by
a
phylosophre
named
(
Secundus
)
whom
th
emperour
(
Adryane
)
questyoned
with
of
that
beyng
&
thestate
of
man
whiche
answered
as
foloweth
.
Man
is
subget
vnto
deth
dost
of
the
place
where
he
is
a
voyager
passyng
/
semblably
vnto
a
pece
of
snowe
.
Also
lyke
a
reed
bery
and
lyke
a
newe
apple
by
whiche
thynge
is
euydencly
shewed
/
how
frayle
/
how
sleder
/
&
also
how
lytyll
endurynge
is
the
lyfe
of
a
man
.
And
not
oonly
the
lyf
of
poure
people
.
But
also
the
lyfe
of
alle
humane
creatures
/
be
they
neuer
so
ryche
or
puyssaunt
.
For
deth
is
a
comyne
thynge
&
spared
noo
body
.
And
alle
be
it
she
is
cruwell
and
peruerse
/
yet
she
kepeth
egally
one
lawe
in
takyng
as
wel
kynges
&
prynces
as
poure
folkes
.
Thus
geueth
she
grete
cause
to
wepe
yf
it
be
welred
&
taken
that
is
wryten
of
her
.
And
therfore
seyth
(
Iob
)
in
the
xx
chapytre
of
his
book
of
the
riche
fyers
and
orgulous
man
.
All
though
his

be
inhaunsed
vnto
the
skye
that
his

shold
touche
the
clowdes
/
yet
in
then
de
he
shal
torne
to

&
be
lyke
a
dong

.
And
they
that
haue
seen
hym
shall
axe
/
where
is
he
now
/
and
noo

shal
be

Certeynly

And
as
it
is
wryten

Apocalips
in
the
.ii.
chapitre
.
Remember
the
fro
whens
thou
arte
falle
or

and
do
penaunce
.
It
is
red
howe
in
dayes
passed
it
happened
in
the
Abbey
of
Cleruaulx
that
an
holy
man
beyng
in
his
prayers
herde
a
voys
makyng
a
pyteous
lamentacyon
.
And
as
he
asked
who
it
was
.
a
soule
answered
sayeng
I
am
the
soule
of
a
dampned
man
/
complaynyng
myne
vnhappy
cause
of
condemnacion
.
And
then
he
demaunded
hym
of
his
payn
.
whiche
answered
that
of
all
thynges
that
causeth
moost
payn
to
a
dampned
soule
was
losse
of
tyme
/
that
god
hadde
ordeyned
man
by
his
grace
that
he
in
a
lytyll
tyme
myghte
haue
done
penaunce
.
whiche
sholde
delyuere
hym
from
the
euerlastyng
peynes
of
the
gehenne
of

.
To
this
purpose
sayd
Hugo
of

Dyctour
.
The
lackyng
of
the
sighte
of
our
lorde
/
and
faylyng
of
all
the

that
we
myght
haue
hadde
sholde
surmounte
and
be
more
greuous
vnto
the
/
thanne
all
the
Infernall
tourmentes
.
Lete
vs
do
good
werkes
whyle
we
haue
tyme
/
lest
we
saye
in
repentaunce
.
As
is
sayd
in
Iheremyas
in
the
.viii.
chapitre
.
That
is
to
wete
.
Heruest
is
past
.
Somer
is
fynysshed
/
&
we
be
not
saued
/
wherfore
my
frendes
I
requyre
&
humbly
praye
you
/
that
ye
wyll
amende
your selfe
in

&
make
you
redy

for

And
the
rewarder
shall
come
to
yelde
euery
man
after
his
werkes
.
Hit
may
appere
by
these
examples
/
how
Remembraunce
of
dethe
sholde
induce
a
man
to
do
penaunce
.
It
is
red
of
a
felonous
&
a
cruell
knyght
.
whiche
wolde
neuer
accept
nor
do
ony
penaunce
enioyned
hym
by
pope
Alexander
.
And
at
last
the
pope
gaue
him
his
rynge
/
that
he
sholde
here
it
on
his
fynger
/
by
way
of
penaunce
.
And
as
often
as
he
behelde
him
to
thynke
on
his
dethe
.
And
whan
he
had
boren
hit
a
space
of
tyme
with
the
Remembraunce
on
a
day
he
come
ageyn
to
the
pope
sayng
he
was
redy
to
shryue
him
&
to
fulfyll
euery
other
maner
of
penaunce
.
that
he
wolde
enioyne
hym
.
It
is
red
of
an
other
synner
that
in
lyke
wyse
wolde
do
noo
penaunce
/
&
at
last
his
confessoure
enioyned
hym
/
that
he
sholde
commaunde
his
seruaunt
to
presente
hym
euery
daye
atte
his

with
the
fyrste

Syr
Remembre
that
necessaryly
ye
must
dye

not

whenne
/
in
what
maner
nor
howe

And
as
this
was
a
good
whyle
contynued
/
because
of
that
Remembraunce
/
all
that
he
ete
torned
hym
to
grefe
and
trouble
.
And
thenne
he
called
agayne
for
his
confessour
/
sayeng
he
was
redy
to
do
and
obey
ony
penaunce
that
he
wolde
ordeyne
.
For
his
herte
was
merueylously
broughte
in
grete
trouble
by
the

of
dethe
/
whiche
he
was
in
.
Loo
by
these
thynges
afore
rehersed
/
appereth
thenne
clerely
Inough
how
Remembraunce
of
deth
causeth
a
man
to
humble
hym selfe
/
to
dyspyse
all
worldly
thynges
/
and
acceptably
take
vpon
hym
to
doo
penaunce
and
consequently
to
eschewe
synnes
And
therfore

Remembre

And

And

Here

THe
seconde
parte
of
the
foure
laste
thynges
wherof
frequentynge
the
Remembraunce
reuoketh
&
calleth
vs
from

Is
the
last
and
fynall
day
of
Iugement
/
of
whiche
the
Remembraunce
draweth
vs
not
onely
from
the
dedely
gret
synnes
.
but
also
from
the
smale
venyall
.
And
therfore
it
is
redde
in
Vitis
Patrum
in
the
lyfe
of
faders
That
an
auncyent
man
seeng
a

Certeynly
thou

rather

Now
is
here
the

to

to
put

And
thoos

Saynt
Gregory
sayth
in

Omelye
.
That
the
gladnesse
of

suche
.
as
therby

Therfore

Here

And

The

The

The

These

Here

prologue
of

seconde
parte

¶
How
the
Accusacyon
that
shall
be
at
the
daye
of
dome
is
to
be
drad
.
¶
The
fyrst
chapitre
of
the
seconde
parte
.
THe
fyrste
thing
thenne
.
where
by
the
fynal
Iugement
oughte
specyally
to
be
drad
is
the
many
and
dyuerse
accusacyons
/
whiche
shall
be
there
agaynst
all
synners
/
wherfore
it
is
to
be
knowen
that
we
fynde
in
holy
scryptures
seuen
thynges
that
accuse
synners
atte
the
grete
daye
of
Iugement
.
The
fyrste
is
oure
propre
conscyence
/
whiche
shall
argue
ageynst
the
synner
/
not
secretely
/
but
manyfestely
thenne
afore
all
.
It
is
wryten
in
Danyele
in
the
seuenthe
chapitre
.
Thy
Iugemente
is
sette
/
and
thy
bookes
be
open
.
That
is
to
wete
/
the
conscyences
/
whiche
thenne
be
openly
vttered
In
those
bokes
be
conteyned
the
sciences
of
lyf
or
of
deth
/
of
glory
and
of
confusyon
/
of
saluacyon
perpetuell
/
or
dampnacyon
eternall
.
It
is
red
also
in
the
.xx.
chapitre
of
the
Apocalyps
.
That
dede
men
shall
be
Iuged
of
the
thynges
wryten
in
theyr
owne
bokes
.
That
is
to
saye
/
in
theyr
consciences
Therfore
it
is
wryten
in
the
Pystle
to
the
Romayns
in
the
seconde
chapitre
That
theyr
conscyences
shall
bere
them
wyttenesse
.
For
as
wyttenesse
of
the
euyll
conscyence
is
th
accusacyon
/
the
payne
.
and
the
tourment
of
synners
.
Right
so
shal
the
good
conscyence
be
helpe
and
saluacyon
to
the
good
creatures
.
The
seconde
thyng
that
shal
accuse
the
synners
/
shall
be
the
fendes
and
the
euyll
spyrytes
/
whiche
falsly
&
trayterously
haue
procured
&
sturred
men
to
synne
.
And
of
alle
that
the
synner
hathe
done
they
wyll
accuse
hym
/
as
one
thef
accuseth
an
other
of
one
felony
done
by
them
both
.
It
is
wryten
in
the
Apocalyps
the
.xii.
chapitre
.
The
fende
is
called
the
accuser
of
bretheren
.
And
Saynt
Austyn
say
the.
They
be
all
before
the
Iudycyall
sete
of
Ihesu
Cryste
.
And
there
the
deuellys
shall
be
redy
▪
whiche
shall
reherse
the
wordes
of
our
professyon
and
shall
appose
to
oure
face
that
we
haue
done
/
and
wherin
we
haue
synned
/
and
in
what
place
/
and
what
we
oughte
to
haue
done
/
and
lefte
it
vndone
.
Truly
our
aduersary
that
same
fende
shall
say
thenne
.
O
righte
wyse
and
Iuste
Iuge
.
Deme
this
man
to
be
myn
for
his
synnes
.
For
he
wyll
not
be
thyne
by
grace
.
He
is
thyne
by
nature
.
He
is
myne
by
his
mysery
.
He
is
thyn
by
thy
passion
.
He
is
myn
by
persuasyons
.
He
hathe
bendysobeysaunte

He
hath

He
hath
receyued
of

&
of
me
this
blacke
garmente
that
he
wereth
of

he
that
lefte

&
hath
taken

he
hath
lefte

&
hath

O

Iuste
Iuge
.
Iuge
hym
therfore
to
be

and
that
he

condampned
with
me
perpetually
.
Thyse
wordes
sayd
our
lorde
vnto
.
Saynte
Austyne
.
The
thyrde
thynge
that
accuseth
synners
.
shall
be

&
the
happy
goode

.
Certayne
it
is
to
be
beleued
/
that
he
that
hath
gyuen
them
oure
soules

/
shall
requyre

Reason
of
that
kepyng

And
as
those
that
neuer

wyll

vpon
them
the
synne
or
faute
of
other
/
muste
nedys
saye
/
they
be
not

.
But
the
gylte
is
in
vs
synners
/
whiche
wolde
not

Semblably
it
is
not

defa●te
of

If

it

And
we
shall

Thefore
our

That

Certeynly

It

Intollerable

The
sayde
sentence
is
mure
ferefull
and
daungerous
/
be
cause
it
Iuged
not
oonly
the
body
/
but
also
it
condempneth

.
To
that
purpose
is
there
red
an
example
/
how
that
there
was
somtyme
.ii.
bretheren
/
wherof
the
one
was
a
fole
&
ignorant

&
the
other
was
wyse
/
whiche
went
togydres
in
a
way
.
&
as
they
walked
/
they
come
at
laste
to
a
forked
way
.
whiche
ledde
to
sondry
places
/
wherof
the
one
was
fayre
and
pleasaunt
.
and
the
other
sharpe
&
no

inhabyted
And
whenne
the
fole
saw
the
fayr
&
delectable
way
he
sayd
.
Brother
goo
we

Thenne
the
wyse
brother
answered
.
I
knowe
well
that
this
waye
whiche
thou
wylte
lede

is
fayer
&
delectable
.
but
netheles
in
the
ende
it
wyll
beyng
vs
to
an
right
euyl
lodgyng
.
And
therfore
I
counseyll
that
we
take
the
other
waye
.
For
all
be
hit
that
it
be
sherpe
&
not
inhabited
/
fynally
it
wyll
bryng
vs
to
right
a
good

honest
harberoughe

full

where
vnto
the
fole
answered
.
I
wyll
rather
trust
myneye
in
that
I
see
/
than
thyn
in
that
thou
seest
not
.
And
so
sette
hym
forthe
in
the
softe
and
delectable
way
whiche
thynge
the
wyse
brother
seeng
that
he
coude
not

hym
relynquysshe
his

/
folowed
hym
And
whenne
they
hadde
gone
togyder
a
lytyll
space
/
they
fortuned
anone
to
be
taken
with
soldeyours

whiche
dysceuered
them

put
them
in

Now
hit
happened
that
the
kyng
of
the

commaunded
on
a

that
all
prysoners
sholde
be
broughte

hym

And
whenne
these
two
brethern
came
afore

the

O

I

yet
neuerthelesse
.
he
wolde
not

no
:
goo
after

the
good

that
I
taught
hym
but
hath
made
me
to
folowe
hym
in
the
euyll
way
wherin
we
were
taken

and
so
he
is
gylty
of
my

And
to
the
corntarye
the
ignorant

sayd
to
the

kyng

Syr
I
haue

Reason
to

me
lyghtly
in

whiche
he
knewe
well
was
euyll

daungerous

for

he
wolde

I
wold
haue
retourned
ageyn

folowed
hym
/
whereby
I
sholde

therfore

whenne
these

were

The
kynge
pronownsed

sayeng
Thou

thou

The

princypal
IT
is
now
fyrst
to
be
Declared
pryncypally
the
nomynacyon
of
the
paynefull
places
of
helle
/
wherfore
it
is
to
be
knowen
that
helle
is
a
place
full
of
fyre
and
is
soo
called
de
Infero
infers
.
That
is
to
saye
to
bere
in
/
for
the
soules
of
synners
be
borne
in
to
it
for
to
suffre
payne
there
eternally
And
therfore
sayth
Iob
in
his
seuenthe
chapitre
.
He
that
shall
descende
in
to
helle
shall
not
come
agayne
ne
euer
retourne
vnto
his
house
.
And
also
helle
is
oftentymes
called
gehenne
of
fyre
.
The
forsayd
saynt
Gregory
in
his
fourth
booke
of
his
dyalogys
sayde
.
Certeynly
it
must
be
byleued
that
there
is
oonly
but
one
fyre
in
the
gehenne
of
helle
/
but
it
tormenteth
not
all
synners
after
one
maner
/
for
euery
man
shall
haue
payne
after
the
quantyte
of
his
gylte
and
trespace
.
Isydorus
in
the
booke
of
souerayne
goodnesse
sayth
that
the
fyre
of
the
gehenne
of
helle
shall
shyne
&
lyght
to
the
dampned
folkes
in
encreasyng
of
theyr
paynes
to
th
entent
that
they
may
see
theyr
owne
sorowes
.
it
shal
neyther
light
nor
shyne
to
theyr
consolacyon
nor
gyue
them
cause
of
ony
reioysyng
.
The
payn
of
thoos
that
be
dampned
is
doubled
by
sorow
&
paynes
that
tormenteth
the
soule
&
fyre
that
brenneth
the
body
.
Of
this
fyre
of
helle
speketh
the
Psalter
sayeng
.
The
coles
shall
falle
vpon
synners
whiche
shall
be
cast
in
to
the

hauyng
no

in
theyr
myseryes
/
our
lord
shall
tormmente
them
with
his
Ire
&
the

shall
deuour
them
.
wherfore
it
is
wryten
in
Isaye
in
the
.ix.
chapitre
The
people
shall
be
as
mete
vnto
the

/
it
is
also
sayd
to
euery
synner
in
Ezechyell
in
the
.xxi.
chapitre
.
Thou
shalt
be

.
In
Iheremy
the
.xv.
chapitre
seyth
our
lord
to
the
dampned
folkes
.
th
enbrasyng
fyre
inferyour
shall
broyll
and
brenne
vpon
you
all
.
this
fyre
is
of
that
nature
that
perpetually
it
shall
brenne
and
shall
neuer
haue
nede
to
be
renued
.
It
is
wryten
in
Iob
the
.xx.
chapitre
.
The
fyre
whiche
canne
neuer
be
quenched
shal
vtterly
deuour
them
O
howe
sore
shall
oure
lorde
venge
hym
thenne
vpon
the
dampned
synners
.
As
it
is
sayd
in
Ecclesiastico
in
the
.vii.
chapitre
.
The
flesshe
of
synners
shall
haue
vengeance
by
fyre
.
This
fyre
of
the
gehenne
of
helle
is
differente
from
the
materyall
fyre
pryncypally
in
iii.
thynges
Fyrst
in
fyrsnesse
&
egrenesse
for
the
power
of
hit
in
brennynge
is
Infynyte
/
wherfore
sayth
saynt
Sebastyane
whenne
the
angell
of
heuen
rowned
hym
in
the
ere
/
he
sayd
that
our
sensyble
fyre
is
noo
more
lyke
the
fyre
of
helle
/
then
the
fyre
peynted
vpon
a
wall
is
lyke
our
materiale
fyre
.
Secondely
in
enduryng
.
For
our
materyale
fyre
may
be
quenched
and
so
may
not
that
.
It
is
wryten
in
Isay
in
the
last
chapitre
/
that
the
fyre
for
synners
shall
not
be
quenched
.
Thyrdly
in
wastyng
.
for
our
sensyble
materyall
fyre
may
consume
and
wast
all
thynges
as
the
philosophre
seith
but
the
fyre
infernall
may
not
wast
nor
consume
neyther
the
body
nor
the
soules
of
synners
by
brennynge
.
Iob
sayth
in
his
.xx.
chapitre
of
the
synners
beyng
in
helle
.
He
shall
bye
ful
dere
now
that
he
hath
done
&
yet
he
shall
not
be
wasted
.
Iohan
crysostom
seyth
also
that
oure
materyall
fyre
consumeth
all
thynge
that
is
leyed
in
hit
/
but
the
fyre
of
helle
tourmenteth
contynuelly
thoos
that
be
therin
/
&
yet
it
preserueth
them
alway
in
lengthynge
theyr
paynes
.
Therfore
it
is
sayd
that
it
is
not
to
be
quenched
not
oonly
because
it
can
not
be
put
out
but
that
it
shall
not
sease
to
destroye
them
that
shall
come
therin
.
For
the
cause
sayth
the
holy
scripture
that
the
synner
shal
be
clothed
with
corrupcyon
not
oonly
of
theyr
lyf
but
in
languysshyng
and
tormentes
alway
comynge
.
Certaynly
noo
voyce
coude
expowne
nor
noo
worde
coude
expresse
the
gretenes
of
the
payn
.
nor
the
feruentnes
of
that
fyre
.
Alas
what
shal
we
do
therfor
there
.
&
what
shal
we
answere
/
for
in
helle
shall
be
but
gryndyng
of
tethe
/
yowlyng
.
cryeng
.
&
wepyng
in
payn
/
but
thenne
penaunce
is
to
late
/
&
from
all
partes
shall
conforte
and
helpe
be
put
awaye
/
there
shall
be
noo
thyng
but
augmencacyons
of
paynes
.
as
that
fyre
of
helle
is
not
of
nature
to
druoure
/
no
more
is
it
to
gyue
noo
comfortable
lyght
.
It
is
an
obscure
fyre
/
and
the
flamme
therof
tenebrous
.
Secondely
helle
is
called
locus
inquietus
.
that
is
to
saye
a
restles
place
euer
enduryng
and
shall
neuer
haue
ende
/
wherfor
it
is
sayde
in
this
lyfe
that
there
is
one
place
whiche
is
alwaye
styll
/
that
is
to
wyte
the
centre
of
the
skye
.
Other
be
somtyme
troubled
as
mene
partes
of
the
ayer
/
semblably
it
maye
be
proued
that
the
lowest
parte
is
alwayes
in
trouble
without
rest
And
therfore
it
is
called
tartarus
.
For
after
Papy
tartarus
is
as
mykell
to
saye
as
troubled
and
obscure
Certaynly
the
vnrest
and
trybulacyon
cometh
there
specyally
of
three
thynges
.
Fyrste
the
varyaunce
of
paynes
as
one
sayth
/
the
weder
is
troubled
/
when
it
is
nowe
medled
with
reyn
.
now
with
hayll
.
now
with
snowe
.
or
suche
storme
whiche
as
it
is
sayd
/
be
of
all
those
maners
in
helle
as
wytenessen
prophetes
sayeng
.
It
shall
rayn
vpon
synners
bothe
fyre
&
brymstone
.
and
the
spyrytes
of
tempest
shall
gyue
them
parte
of
theyr
tourmentes
.
Secondly
of
the
mynystres
infernall
.
As
it
is
wryten
in
Iheremye
the
.xvi.
chapitre
.
Those
deuylles
that
ye

/
nether
nyghte

Thirdely

Isaye
the

chapitre
.
ye

In
trouthe
our
lord
shall
answere
to
all
those
that
so
shall
howle
and
crye
.
As
it
is
sayd
in
Iheremye
the
.xxx.
chapitre
.
Wherfore
cryest
thou
&
howlest

nowe
by

thy

.
I
haue
punysshed
the
thus
for
thy
wycked
felonous
synnes
.
Thirdely
helle
is
called
a
place
right
distempred
.
As
Auernus
.
That
is
as
mykell
to
saye
as
a

of

there
is
therin
without

tenebres
/
whiche
be
called
exteriores
.
as
saynt
Mathewe
sayth
in
his
.xxii.
Chapitre
.
we
haue
example
of
this
in
Exodo
in
the
.x.
chapitre
.
By
the
manyable
tenebres
that
were
sometyme
in
Egypte
.
O
how
mykell
shall
the
tenebres
of
helle
be
more
greuous
than
those
.
It
is
wryten
in
Iob
in
the
.xx.
chapitre
.
All
horryble
tenebres
shall
come
on
hym
.
Ageyne
then
shall
the
●●●ners
saye
.
As
it
is
sayde
in
the
Psalter
.
They
haue
cast
me
in
to
the
lowest
lake
and
in
the
tenebrous
place
and
in
the
shadowe
of
dethe
/
they
haue
lodged
me
in
the
obscure
place
as
dede
fro
this
worlde
/
wherfore
my
soule
is
angry
with
me
.
Semblably
it
is
wryten
in
the
Lamentacyons
of
Iheremye
.
They
haue
lodged
me
with
thoos
that
be
sempyternally
dede
/
there
is
therin
an
excessyfe
hete
.
As
Iob
sayth
in
his
xiiii
.
chapitre
.
The
hete
is
grete
therin
,
and
the
cause
is
that
it
breketh
not
oute
but
is
closed
in
/
as
the
hete
in
an
ouen
.
The
Psalter
sayth
.
Whenne
thou
arte
an
angred
thou
shalte
put
the
synners
in
an
ouen
ful
of
fyre
.
Also
our
lord
shall
torment
them
with
his
wrath
/
and
fyre
shall
deuoure
them
/
there
is
there
also
a
right
sharpe
colde
.
As
is
wryten
in
Iob
in
the
sayde
chapitre
.
It
is
sayd
the
water
of
snowe
is
colder
thenne
all
other
waters
/
Yet
the
waters
of
helle
maye
not
be
compared
with
of
chyllyng
nor
colde
.
And
therfor
seyth
ful
gen●yus
in
his
Pystles
.
There
is
in
helle
.ii.
pryncypall
maner
of
tormentes
/
that
is
to
wyte
by
in
tollerable
colde
and
by
inquencheable
hete
.
It
is
wryten
in
the
xxiiii
chapitre
of
Saynt
Mathew
There
shall
be
in
helle
bothe
wepyng
and
colde
certeynly
the
effluccion
of

by

cometh
of
hete
/
but
the
inwarde
sorowes
is
caused
by
colde
.
To
this
purpose
wytnesseth
Iob
in
the
sayde
xxiiii

chapitre
.
The
synner
ouerpassed
with
the
colde
water
of
snow
/
gothe

It
is
founde
also
in
a

with

O
how
myserable
and
paynful
shal
this
trouble
be
to
thoos
that
shall
not
dye
nor
haue
lightnyng
in
that
piyson
of

but
be

there
Infynyt●ly
Fourthely
helle
is
called
a
noyfull
waylyng
place
and
therfore
after
Papie
it
is
named
Acheron
/
that
is
as
mykell
to
saye
as
a
place
without
Ioye
lackyng
all

For
this

sayth
the
Comentator
Aueroys
in
the
iiii

chapitre
of
Poetrye
.
That
helle
hath
a
contynuell
sorow

In

and
from

there
no

wherfore
they

certeynly
that

It

of
Sapyence
in

chapitre

That
the
dampned
soules
shall
be

Also

That

&
as
Theodorus
was

al

assembled
aboute

deuout
orysons
that
they
myght
helpe

defende
his
soule
at

then
he
began
sodenly
to

&
with
a
grete
voyce
had
them
breke
of

leue
theyr
orysons

for
he
was
gyuen
vnto
an

for

/
whiche
he
sayd
for

he
had

that

Thenne
sayde
his

To
who

the
sayd
Theodorus
answered
with
a
lamentable
crye
.
I
wolde
feyne
blesse
me

but
I
can
not

for
I
am
to
hardely
prycked

Also
Saynte
Gregory
telleth
an

in

how

meruelously
well

But
whenne
his

he
had
fasted
he
was
accustomed
secretely
to

And
whenne
he
was
at

/
he
called
generally
for
all
his
bretheren
.
sayeng
vnto
them
.
I
am
delyuered
nowe
vnto
a
dragon
to
be
deuoured
/
whiche
with
his
tayll
hath
knytte
togydre

also

&
putteth
his

in

draweth
my

and
after
he
had
sayd
those

he
dyed
forth

It

The

Nowe
take
we
that
there

I
answere

there
can

Arystotyle

Certaynly

as

as
the

Nowe
surely
one

the

wherof
soueraynely
the

withdraweth
a

Is

And
yf

of

how

in

There
is
a
Ioye

whiche
is
not
to

to

to
those
that
of
theyr

wyll
loue
and
worshyppe
the

god
/
and
thou
thy selfe
arte
that
Ioye

For
this
cause
it
is
wryten
in

Pystle
ad

chapitre
The
felon
synners
shall
not
possesse
the

not

And
Cassydore
sayth
that

And
certeynly
his

is
mesured
after

that

Now
sholde
not

eschewe

&
haue

Certeynely

I
wyll

It

to

how

The

Secondly
for

The

Certaynly

Certeynly

we

what

without

/
syther
we

and
can
haue

O
how
folyshe

how
hard
herted
we
be
truste
in
reioysyng

Ihesu

he

yet
was

therin

entre
therin
that
be

with
superfluous
garnementis
with
richesse
of

.
He
entred
therin

fastyng
&
thou

full

He
dyed
vpon

Sholde

Certeynly
nay

Herken
now
what
a
Poete
sayth

The

Now
bere

The

If

Reste

By
the
Reasons
aboue

it
appereth
manyfestely
/
that
though
our

lytyll

our
Rewardes
in

maye
be
grete
and
many
/
for
the
Ioyes
there
are
Impossyble
to
be
comprehended

for
there

eye
coude

and
the

Iwys
can
not
here
dyrectely
be
sauoured
nor
felte
/
but
it
may
well
be
surely
thought
/
that
all
that
euer
is
felte
delectable
or
good
in
this
present
worlde
is
but
as
the
resplendysshynge
and
a
shadowe
of
the

of

whiche
we
ought

take
as

to

whiche
is
our
enherytance

Now
in
concludynge
fynally
it
may
appere
by
grete
euydence
and
Inuynsyble
reasons
.
that
the
four
last
thynges
aboue
alledged
/
whiche
is
to
wyte
/
the
bodely
dethe
/
the

&
the
glorye
of

withdrawen
from

in
many
maners
/
suche
as
haue
the
same
four
last
thynges
withouten
oblyuyon
in
a
contynuale
Remembraunce

Where
by
they
acceyne
and
edytye
theyr
soules
to
remayne
eternally
in
the
moost
gloryous
blys
of
heuen
.
And
whenne
ony
falle
to

/
it
is
by
cause
they
haue
not
the
sayde
four
thynges
cordyally
emprynted
in

And
alas
nor
the
suffrance
of
our

There
be
to
fewe
that
consyder
and
poyse
the
sayde
four
laste
thynges
.
Many
there
be
that
thynke
to
lyue

to
repente

there
by
appeyse
the

And
in

And
yet
after
they
thynke
so
possede

O
what
presumptuous
folye
is
hit
to

That
argument
concludeth
not

mocketh

deceyueth
