¶ The .xxiiii. Chapytre / howe a man shal confesse hym / of the cogytacyons and thoughtes of his herte.

Page [unnumbered]

I Do accuse me also / to haue synned greatly by cogytacyons and thought{is} of my herte.

¶ Fyrste / that I haue receyued of our lorde god many good inspyracions: sterynge and mouyng me to amende my peruers & euyll lyfe / and to tourne me to penaūce / and that I shulde do good and leue the euyll. These and many other exhortacions whiche I ha¦ue receyued of god and of my holy aungell I haue resyste & withstande / as an ingrate and vnkynde persone.

¶ Secondaryly / I haue not resyste & with stande euyll thoughtes / whiche haue come vnto me by temptacyon of the flesshe or of the deuyll / but haue perseuered of a fre wyl and haue thought of them by consent / yf I myght haue had my purpose: and haue lefte it more for shame and fere of the people: thā for the loue or fere of god. In these and ma∣ny other synnes venyall and mortall / I knowlege me to haue ofte tymes offended my lorde god in herte.
