The Epistle.
EVery good gift, and euery perfect gift is from aboue, and commeth downe from the Father of lights, with whom is no variablenesse, nei∣ther shadowe of change. Of his owne will be∣gate he vs with the worde of trueth, that wee shoulde bee the first fruites of his creatures. Wherefore, deare brethren, let euery man bee swift to heare, slowe to speake, slow to wrath: for the wrath of man work∣eth not that which is righteous before God. Wherefore lay apart all fillthinesse, and superstuitie of maliciousnesse, and receiue with meekenesse the word that is grafted in you, which is able to saue your soules.
