that_o there_o be_v three_o cause_n why_o the_o disciple_n know_v not_o christ_n but_o judge_v he_o to_o be_v a_o spirit_n the_o first_o cause_n be_v the_o darkness_n of_o the_o night_n the_o second_o be_v the_o unaccustomed_a vision_n that_o appear_v and_o the_o three_o be_v the_o danger_n and_o the_o tempest_n in_o which_o they_o so_o earnest_o labour_v for_o the_o safeguard_n of_o their selve_o the_o darkness_n i_o say_v of_o the_o night_n let_v their_o eye_n to_o see_v he_o and_o it_o be_v above_o nature_n that_o a_o massy_a heavy_a and_o weighty_a body_n of_o a_o man_n such_o as_o they_o understand_v their_o master_n christ_n to_o have_v shall_v walk_v go_v upon_o or_o be_v bear_v up_o of_o the_o water_n of_o the_o rage_a sea_n and_o not_o sink_v and_o final_o the_o horror_n of_o the_o tempest_n and_o great_a danger_n that_o they_o be_v in_o persuade_v they_o to_o look_v for_o none_o other_o but_o certain_o to_o be_v drown_v and_o so_o all_o these_o three_o thing_n concur_v together_o confirm_v in_o they_o this_o imagination_n that_o christ_n jesus_n who_o come_v to_o their_o great_a comfort_n and_o deliverance_n be_v a_o fearful_a and_o wicked_a spirit_n appear_v to_o their_o destruction_n what_o here_o happen_v to_o christ_n jesus_n himself_o word_n that_o i_o may_v prove_v to_o have_v chance_v and_o daily_o to_o happen_v to_o the_o verity_n of_o his_o bless_a word_n in_o all_o age_n from_o the_o beginning_n for_o as_o christ_n himself_o in_o this_o their_o trouble_n be_v judge_v and_o esteem_v by_o his_o disciple_n at_o the_o first_o sight_n a_o spirit_n or_o fantastical_a body_n so_o be_v the_o truth_n and_o sincere_a preach_v of_o his_o glorious_a gospel_n send_v by_o god_n for_o man_n comfort_n deliverance_n from_o sin_n and_o quietness_n of_o

destruction_n the_o cause_n hereof_o be_v the_o dark_a ignorance_n of_o god_n which_o in_o every_o age_n since_o the_o beginning_n so_o overwhelm_v the_o world_n that_o sometime_o god_n very_a elect_n

the_o more_o proud_a cruel_a and_o arrogant_a be_v they_o whereby_o it_o common_o come_v to_o pass_v that_o the_o very_a messenger_n of_o life_n be_v judge_v and_o deem_v to_o be_v the_o author_n of_o all_o mischief_n and_o this_o in_o many_o history_n be_v evident_a when_o god_n have_v appoint_v to_o deliver_v the_o afflict_a israelite_n by_o the_o hand_n of_o moses_n from_o the_o tyranny_n of_o the_o egyptian_n and_o moses_n be_v send_v to_o the_o presence_n of_o pharaoh_n for_o the_o same_o purpose_n such_o be_v their_o affliction_n and_o anguish_n by_o the_o cruelty_n which_o new_o be_v
