¹ We as helpers therfore exhorte you yt ye receave not the grace of god in (vayne)² For he saith: I have hearde the in a tyme accepted: and in ye daye of saluacion have I suckered the. Beholde now is that well accepted tyme: beholde now is yt daye of saluacion.³ Let vs geve no man occasion of evyll that in oure office be founde no faute:⁴ but in all thynges let vs behave oure selves as the ministers of God. In moche pacience in afflicios in necessite in anguysshe⁵ in strypes in presonmet in stryfe in laboure in watchinge in fastyng⁶ in purenes in knowledge in longe sufferynge in kyndnes in the holy goost in love vnfayned⁷ in ye wordes of trueth in the power of God by ye armoure of rightewesnes on ye right honde and on the lyfte⁸ in honoure and dishonoure in evyll reporte and good reporte as desceauers and yet true⁹ as unknowen and yet knowen: as dyinge and beholde we yet live: as chastened and not killed:¹⁰ as sorowynge and yet alwaye mery: as poore and yet make many ryche: as havynge nothynge and yet possessynge all thynges.

¹¹ O ye Corinthyans oure mouth is open vnto you. Oure herte is made large:¹² ye are in no strayte in vs but are in a strayte in youre awne bowelles:¹³ I promyse you lyke rewarde with me as to my childre. ¹⁴ Set youreselues therfore at large and beare not a straugers yoke wyth the vnbelevers. For what fellishippe hath rightewesnes with vnrightewesnes? What company hath light wt darcknes?¹⁵ What cocorde hath Christ with beliall? Ether what parte hath he yt beleveth with an infidele?¹⁶ how agreeth the temple of god wt ymages? And ye are the temple of yt lyuynge god as sayde god. I will dwell amonge the and walke amoge the and wilbe their god: and they shalbe my people.¹⁷ Wherfore come out from amoge the and separate youreselues (sayth the lorde) and touche none vncleane thynge: so wyll I receave you¹⁸ and wilbe a father vnto you and ye shalbe vnto me sonnes and doughters sayth the lorde almyghty.
