[The Pentateuch]

Note also how god sendeth his promise to ⟨image 92⟩the people and Moses confirmeth it with miracles and the people believe. But when temptation cometh they fall into unbelief and few bide standing. Where thou seest that all be not christen that will be so called, and that the cross trieth the true from the feigned: for if the cross were not Christ should have disciples enow. Whereof also thou seest what an excellent gift off god true faith is, and impossible to be had with out the spirit of god. For it is above all natural power that a man in time of temptation when god scourgeth him should believe then steadfastly how that god loveth him and careth for him and hath prepared all good things for him, and that that scourging is as earnest that god hath elect and chose him.

Note also how god sendeth his promisse to ⟨image 92⟩the people ād Moses consermeth it with miracles ād the people beleve. But whē tēptacion cometh they falle into vnbeleffe ād few byde stōdinge. Where thou seest that all be not christē that wilbe so called, ād that the crosse trieth the true frō the fayned: for yf the crosse were not Christ shuld haue dissiples ynowe. Wherof also thou seest what an excellent gifte off god true fayth is, ād impossible to be had with out the sprete of god. For it is aboue all naturall power that a man in tyme of tēptation when god scorgeth him shuld beleue then stedfastlye how that god loveth him ād careth for hī ād hath prepared all good thinges for him, ād that that scorginge is as ernest that god hath electe and chose him.

Note how oft Moses stirreth them up to believe and to trust in god, putting them in remembrance alway in time of temptation of the miracles and wonders which god had wrought before time in their eyesight. How diligently also forbiddeth he all that might with draw their hearts from god? to put nought to God's word: to take nought therefrom: to do only that which is right in the sight of the Lord: that they should make no manner image to kneel down before it: yea that they should make none altar of hewed stone for fear off images:
