14 ! Who as he judgeth these worldie ministers to euerlasting torments.
14 m Christs comming is as the morning, when the elect shal reigne with Christ their head ouer the wicked.
14 k As shepe are gathered into the folde, so shal thei be broght to the graue.
18 / Or, his soule.
18 m The flatterers praise them that liue in delites & pleasures.
19 n And not passe terme appointed for life.
