Now thou that mivistrest in the kitchen & art but a kechē age receivest all thing of y• hand of God / knowest that God hath put the in that office / submittest thy self to high will and servest thy master / not as a man / but as Christ him self with a pure heart / according as Paul teacheth us / puttest thy trust in God / and▪ ⟨p. xliiij⟩with him seekest thy reward. More over there is not a good dead done / but thy heart rejoiceth therein / ye when thou hearest that the word of God is preached by this Apostle & seest the people turn to God / thou consentest unto the dead / thine heart breaketh out in joy / springeth and leapeth in thy breast / that God is honoured And in thine heart doest the same that the Apostle doth & haply with greater delectation & a more fervent sprite. Now he that receiveth a prophet in the name of a prophet shall receive the reward of a prophet. Math. x. that is / he that consenteth to the deed of a prophet & maintaineth it / the same hath the same sprite & earnest of everlasting life which the prophet hath & is elect as the prophet is.
Now thou that miuistrest in the kechen & art but a kechē age receavist all thinge of y• hond of God / knowest that God hath put the in that office / submutest thy selfe to hye will and servest thy master / not as a man / but as Christe hym self with a pure hert / accordinge as Panle teacheth vs / puttest thy trust in God / and▪ ⟨p. xliiij⟩wyth him seakest thi rewarde. More over ther ys not a good deade done / but thi hert reioyseth therin / yee when thou heareste that ye word of God ys preached by this Apostle & seyst the people turne to God / thou consentest vnto the deade / thine hert breaketh out in ioye / sprīgeth and leapeth in thi brest / that God is honoured And in thine hert doist ye same that ye Apostle doth & happly wyth greater delecraciō & a moare fervent sprite. Now he yt receaveth a prophere in the name of a prophete shall receave the reward of a prophet.
