It is God s will that we have three things in our seeking of his gift. The first is, that we seek wilfully and busily without sloath, as it may be with his grace, gladly and merrily, without 31 unreasonable heaviness and vain-sorrow. The second, that we abide him stedfastly for his love, without grudging and striving against him, into lives end, for it shall last but a while. The third is, that we trust in him mightily of full and true faith : for it is his will that we know that he shall appear suddenly and blessedfully to all his lovers.
