Idem.
Finis præcepti est Charitas. Quo perficiuntur præ-
cepta, non quo consumuntur. finitur cibus, vt non sit;-
finitur tunica quæ texebatur vt perfecta sit. non sic er-
go finis præcepti dixit, quo quasi pereant præcepta, sed
quo perficiantur; & consummentur, non consumantur.

De liefd’ is t’eynde vande wet,
En oock de volheyt der schrifturen,
Een ware ziel met goet opset
Sal blijuen inde liefde dueren:
Van liefde gheeft ghetuyghenis
t’Ghelooue met de goede wercken,
Oft onse liefde godlijck is,
Is hier alleen aen te bemercken.

Au dernier, cét Amour (mon ame)
Est le but & fin de la loy,
Car celuy qui purement ayme,
Comprend Dieu & ses lois en soy,
Reste de l’aymer & le suiure
Avec entiere affection,
Laquelle commença ce liure,
Et en est la conclusion.
