Hunc ergo judicans ex aliis, qui in loco pastorum aliena damna contemnunt, quasi non motum multis subtractis, quasi quæ extra se sunt, dolore propriæ carnis tentat, quasi pro se doleat, qui non pro aliis. Hoc cum fieri petit, dicit desideriis; hæc et per membra verbis et desideriis intulit, per quæ dixit: Mittamus lignum in panem ejus Jer. 11., id est, configendo corpori ejus stipitem crucis adhibeamus. Ibid. Pellis pro pelle datur, quia sæpe, dum ictus contra oculum venit, manum opponimus, ut potius in ipsa quam in teneriori vulneremur: hoc consuete fieri sciens, dicit: Pellem pro pelle, et cuncta quæ habet homo Quasi, ideo Job extra se tot flagella æquanimiter sustinet, quia ne ipse feriatur, pavet: et cura sui minus de suis sentit; unde ipsum ferire expetit: Mitte manum tuam, quod Deus recte permittit, ut sæpe victus obmutescat.

Ibid. Pellis for pelle datur, because sæpe, dum ictus on_the_contrary oculum venit, hand opponimus, as rather in herself how in teneriori vulneremur: this consuete to_be_done sciens, he_says: Pellem for pelle, and cuncta which habet homo Quasi, ideo Yob extra se tot flagella æquanimiter sustinet, because not exactly_that/himself feriatur, pavet: and cura sui minus about to_his_own sentit; whence ipsum ferire expetit: Mitte hand your, that God recte permittit, as sæpe victus obmutescat.
