OUr first parents cast downe them selues from a most excel∣lent, high, & honorable state, in∣to shame & miserie, & into the deepe sea of all wickednesse and mischiefe: but oh Christ, thou putting forth thy hand, didst raise them vp againe. E∣uen so we, except we be raised vp by thee, shall lie still for euer. O good Christe, our most gratious redee∣mer, as thou doest mercifully rayse
vp now this my body, euen so I be∣seech thee, raise vp my minde and heart to the true knowledge & loue of thee, that my conuersation may be in heauen where thou art.
If you be risen with Christ, thinke vpon those things yt be aboue. Col. 3.
Thinke howe foule the fall of A∣dam was by reason of sinne: and so of euery one of vs from the height of Gods grace. Againe, thinke vpon the inestimable benefite of Christe, by whose helpe we daily arise againe from our fallings.
