To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Alas ! man, where is thy shame ? Think with thyself how many abominable sins thou hast done against His pleasure. I do ascertain thee that the least of them striketh Him more painfully unto the heart than any unkindness that ever was done unto thee in all thy life.
For, as St Bernard saith in the person of Christ, when he hath rehearsed all the grievous pains of His Passion, he putteth unto these words : Extat inferius planctus praegravtor, quum te ingraium experior^ that is to say, but in- war...dly mourning is much more grievous be- 78 ^ SERMON ON THE PASSlOO^i cause I perceive thou art to me so mucli unkind. So many sins, so much unkindness, and the more heinous and the more accustom- able that they be, the more abominable is thine unkindness.
If the least of many of thy sins had come to light and to the knowledge of men, thou wouldst have been sore ashamed of them. Christ knoweth them and saw thee do them, for Omnia nuda et aperta sunt oculis ejus — "All things be naked and open before His eyes " ; and yet thou art not ashamed of all thy un- kindness.
