Towards our Bre∣thren.

The Holy-Ghost, the Spirit of love to our Neighbour: Who doth enflame us with a most ardent love towards our Brethren: whose blessed fruits are love, peace, long-suffer∣ing, gentleness, goodness, meekness; by whom the Saints are rendred kind, not envying, not vaunting themselves a∣bove others, not seeking their own, not easily provoked, thinking no evil, bearing all things, believing all things, hoping all things, enduring all things. Who teacheth us to keep our Saviour's new Commandment of Love, and be∣stoweth on us this most excellent gift of Charity.
