Care not then for the day following, but let the day following care for it self. For the day that is present, hath ever enough of his ⟨p. xc⟩own trouble.
Care nat then for the day folowynge, but let the day folowynge care for it selfe. For the day that is present, hath euer ynough of his ⟨p. xc⟩owne trouble.
If thou look well on the covenant that is between the & thy lord God,1 on the one side and the temptations of the world, the flesh and Satan on the other / thou shalt soon perceive that the day present hath ever enough to be cared for / and for which thou must cry instantly to God for help also / though thou do thy best. Now then seeing the day present is over charged with her own care / what madness is it to lade upon her also the care of the day following, yea the care of a year, yea of .xx. year, or as though thou never intendest to dye & to torment and vex the soul through mistrust and unbelief, & to make thy life sour and bitter and as unquiet as the life of the devils in hell. ❧ / ❧
