Thou hast seen the experience of my doctrine, fashion of living, 1and my purpose also, namely in teaching, in living, & in all my office, what I regard in these things, verily the glory of God and salvation of souls. Finally thou knowest what my faith hath been always, my long suffering, my constancy and my patience in persecutions. Follow thou these things, declining no whit from the example of Christ and of me. For our Lord said also in the Gospel.

- 1we must not depart from the Apostles example.
1I am the light of the world. He that followeth me, walketh not in darkness, but hath the light of life. And the Apostle to the Corinthians. Be ye followers of me as I follow Christ. But, because the men of this last age, do not much esteem the example of Christ and of his Apostles, but do more regard the examples of Fathers (I know not of what sort) and of most filthy Monks, that is therefore the cause, why there are so many sects, and that so many wander about, and grope like blind men, not knowing what or whom to follow, or what they may teach. Wherefore, as many of us as desire to be saved: let us keep our selves within the bonds of the example of Christ and of his Apostles.
