When a man takes an Office, he examineth his substance; when takes a Trade, he examineth his skill: when he goeth to fight, he examineth his strength: but these wants are no wants when he goeth to Sacrament. Wilt thou know now upon what articles thou must enquire at that time, that is, how thou shouldst examine thy self.
As some Prayer may be at all times, and some Rejoicing 1may be at all times; so some Examination is at all times. Thus Job examined himself every day, nay, every hour, because he scanned all that he did.

But there is a special examination before the Sacrament, because it is the Bread which is received to salvation or damnation; because it is the Feast, to which whosoever cometh without 1his Wedding Garment, shall be cast into utter darkness; because it is a seal which sealeth a curse or a blessing.
