them to rule with / is obeyed. Thi neyboure that is out of office / is honoured / when thou (as god hath commaunded the) louest hym as thi selfe / countest him as good as thy selfe thinkest him as worthy of any thynge as thy selfe and comest louyngly to helpe him at all his nede / as thou woldest be holpe thy selfe / because God hath made him like vnto his awne image as well as the and christ hath bought him as well as the.

Yf I hate the lawe / so I breake it in myne hert / and both hate and dishonoure God the maker therof. If I breake it outwardly / then I dishonoure God before the world and the officer that ministreth it. Yf I hurte my neyboure / then I dishonoure my neyboure and him that made him and him also that bought him with his bloude. And even so iff I hate my neyboure in myne herte / then I hate him that commaundeth me to loue him and him that hath deserued that I shuld at the lest way for his sake loue him. If I be not ready to helpe my neyboure at his nede / so I take his due honoure from him / and dishonoure him / and him that made him / and him also that bought him with his bloude / whose saruant he is. Yf I loue soch thinges as God hath lent me and committed vn to mine administracion / so that I can not find in myne hert to bestow them on the vses which God hath appoynted me / then I dishonoure god and abuse his creature in that I geue moare honoure vn to it then I shuld do / And then I make an Idole of it in that I loue it moare then god and his commaundment and then I dishonoure my neyghboure from whose nede I withdraw it.
