| his name Ihesus that shal saue his peple of her synnys . | |||
| 213 And herof saith seynt Peter / Ther is none other name | |||
| vnder heuyn that is yeuyn to ony man by whiche aman may | |||

| 221 Yet seyn some doctours & men that suche delite that dwellith | |||
| longe is ful perylous / al be it neuer so lyte 222 And also a | |||
| man shoold sorowe namely for al that euer he hath desired | |||
| ayen the lawe of god with parfight consentyng223 to the dede | |||
| 224 Wherfore I saye that many men repente hem neuer of suche | |||
