Pſalmuseſt paſſer: queſiuit ſpiritualia. Bene: optime. Non illi inſultemus: nō dicamus: nihil dimiſiſti. Nō ſuperbiat qui multa dimiſit. Petrus vt ſequeretur dominū nouimꝰꝙ piſcator erat: quid potuit dimittere? Ul̓frater eiꝰ Andreas: vel filij Zebedei Ioānes ⁊ Iacobus: etiā ip̄i piſcatores: ⁊ tamēquid dixerūt? Ecce nos dimiſimus omnia⁊ ſecuti ſumus te. Non ei dixit dn̄s: Oblitus es paupertatē tuam: quid dimiſiſti: vttotum mundū acciperes? Multū dimiſitfratres mei: multū dimiſit. Quid? Nō ſolūdimiſit quicquid habebat: ſed etiā qͥcquidhr̄e cupiebat. Quis em̄ pauꝑ nō turgeſcitin ſpe ſeculi huius? Quis nō qͦtidie cupitaugere quod habet? Iſta cupiditas preciſa eſt. Ibat in īmenſuꝫ: accepit modū: ⁊ nihil dimiſſum eſt. Prorſus totum munduꝫdimiſit Petrus: ⁊ totum mundū Petrusaccepit: Quaſi nihil habentes ⁊ oīa poſſidētes. Faciūt hoc ml̓ti. Iſta faciūt qui parum habēt: ⁊ veniūt ⁊ fiūt paſſeres vtiles.Minuti vidētur: qꝛ nō habent altitudinēdignitatis ſecularis: nidificāt in cedris libani. Etem̄ cedri libani nobiles ⁊ diuites⁊ excelſi huius ſeculi: qm̄ cū timore audiunt: Beatꝰ qui intelligit ſuper egenum etpauperē: attendunt res ſuas: villas ſuas:⁊ omnes ſuperfluas copias: quibꝰ vident̉excelſi: ⁊ p̄bent illas ſeruis dei: dāt agros:dāt hortos: edificāt eccl̓ias: mōaſteria: colligūt paſſeres vt in cedris libani nidificēt.Paſſeres ergo ſatiantur cedris libani qͣsplātauit dn̄s: ⁊ illic paſſeres nidificabūt.Attendite totam terrā: ſi non ita eſt. Ut loquerer iſta nō ſolū credidi: ſed ⁊ vidi: Dedit mihi intellectū ipſum experimentū. Interrogate latiſſimas terras q̇ noſtis: ⁊ videte in qͣꝫ multis credris libani paſſeres illide quibꝰ locutus ſum nidificāt. Sed tamēfr̄es mei: ip̄i paſſeres ſi ſpūales ſunt: qͣꝫuisnidificēt in cedris libani: nō ꝓ magno habere debēt cedros libani: ⁊ putare illos eēſuꝑiores: a quibꝰ eoꝝ neceſſaria cōplent̉.Paſſeres em̄ ſunt: ille aūt cedri libani ſūt.Ergo fulice domus dux eſt paſſeꝝ.

Fulica ſicut omnes nouimꝰ: marinaauis eſt: vel in ſtagnis eſt: vel in mari eſt.Habet quandā domū: nō facile in littoreterre aut nunqͣꝫ: ſed in hiſ q̄ in media aquaſunt: plerūqꝫ gͦ in petris qͣs aqua circūdat.Intelligimꝰ gͦ petrā eſſe idoneā fulice domū. Nuſqͣꝫ fortius ⁊ firmius habitat: qͣꝫ inpetra. In quali petra? In mari cōſtituta.Et ſi tundit̉ fluctibus: frangit tn̄ fluctꝰ: nōfrangit̉ petra. Hoc habet magnū petra inmari cōſtituta. Quāti fluctꝰ cotuderūt petrā noſtrā Ieſum chriſtū. Eliſi ſunt in illuꝫiudei: illi fracti ſunt: ille aūt integer ꝑmanſit. Et vnuſqͥſqꝫ imitāſ chriſtū: ita ſit in iſtoſeculo: id eſt in iſto mari: vbi nō pōt: niſi ꝓcellas tempeſtateſqꝫ ſentire: vt nulli ventocedat: nulli fluctui: ſꝫ omnia excipiat: ⁊ integer maneat. Ergo fulice domus ⁊ fortiseſt ⁊ hūilis. Nō habet domū fulica in excelſis: nihil illa domo firmiꝰ: ⁊ nihil hūiliꝰ.In cedris quidē nidificant paſſeres ꝓpterpſentē neceſſitatē: ſed petrā illā habēt ducē q̄ fluctibus tundit̉: ⁊ nō frangitur: Imitant̉ em̄ chruti paſſiones. Et ſi forte cedrilibani irate fuerint: ⁊ aliqͥd moleſtie vel ſcādali ſeruis dei in ramis ſuis cōmouerint:volabūt quidē inde paſſeres: ſed ve cedroremanēti ſine nidis paſſerū. Paſſeres em̄nō naufragabūt: nō peribūt: qꝛ fulice domus dux eſt eoꝝ. Quid ergo ſequit̉?
