¶ Faith is ever assailed and fought with all.
¶ Fayth is euer assayled and fought with all.
Moreover this our faith which we have in Christ, is ever fought against, 1ever assailed & beaten at with besperation: not when we sin only, but also in all temptations of adversity, into which God bringeth us, to nurture us, and to show us our own hearts, the hypocrisy & false thoughts that there lye hid, our almost no faith at all, and as little love, even then haply when we thought our selves most perfect of all. For when temptations come we can not stand, when we have sinned faith is feeble, when wrong is done us we can not forgive, in sickness, in loss of goods and in all tribulations we be impatient: when our neighbour needeth our help, that We must depart with him of ours then love is cold.
