OH dear brother, seeing the time is now come, wherein it pleaseth the heavenly father,1 for Christ our saviour his sake, to call upon you, and to bid you to come, happy are you that ever you were borne, thus to be found awake at the lords calling. Euge serve bone & fidelis: quia super pauca fuisti fidelis, super multa te constituet, & intrabis in gaudium Domini. i. Well good servant and faithful, because thou hast ben trusty in small matters, he shall set thee over great things, & thou shalt enter into the joy of thy Lord.
