as_o david_n do_v he_o in_o his_o own_o person_n do_v oftentimes_o intimate_a many_o other_o man_n so_o that_o his_o divine_a writing_n be_v the_o compendium_n of_o all_o the_o sacred_a scripture_n it_o seem_v christ_n himself_o set_v much_o by_o this_o book_n for_o you_o may_v observe_v that_o he_o use_v the_o saying_n of_o the_o prophet_n david_n more_o than_o any_o other_o prophet_n yea_o more_o than_o all_o the_o prophet_n together_o moreover_o when_o the_o devil_n tempt_v christ_n he_o arge_v a_o text_n out_o of_o this_o prophet_n as_o if_o the_o devil_n have_v observe_v how_o

where_o be_v scarce_o any_o creature_n in_o the_o whole_a world_n but_o the_o species_n be_v in_o this_o psalm_n here_o be_v angel_n 2._o and_o all_o host_n sun_n and_o moon_n and_o star_n of_o

so_o that_o you_o see_v the_o text_n like_o the_o iron_n gate_n to_o peter_n open_v unto_o we_o of_o its_o own_o accord_n and_o to_o look_v for_o more_o abroad_o be_v like_o esaw_n to_o hunt_v for_o

the_o part_n we_o have_v of_o act_n be_v nothing_o derogatory_a unto_o our_o worth_n since_o the_o glorious_a angel_n themselves_o be_v employ_v in_o the_o same_o but_o to_o go_v on_o this_o our_o prophet_n show_v that_o the_o very_a beast_n and_o tree_n and_o fowl_n can_v perform_v that_o which_o the_o devil_n will_v persuade_v we_o be_v so_o difficult_a the_o ox_n know_v his_o owner_n and_o the_o ass_n his_o master_n crib_n but_o israel_n do_v not_o know_v my_o people_n do_v not_o consider_v 3._o so_o here_o our_o prophet_n will_v have_v we_o to_o take_v notice_n of_o beast_n and_o

we_o at_o the_o last_o day_n because_o that_o also_o do_v perform_v the_o will_n of_o god_n which_o man_n will_v not_o do_v now_o i_o come_v to_o that_o which_o i_o chief_o 〈◊〉_d at_o young_a man_n

our_o praise_n must_v be_v both_o ore_n opere_fw-la and_o cora●_z christ_n forbid_v swear_v in_o that_o divine_a sermon_n of_o his_o upon_o the_o mount_n show_v we_o a_o method_n how_o to_o affirm_v or_o deny_v any_o thing_n 37._o let_v your_o communication_n be_v yea_o yea_o nay_o 〈◊〉_d for_o whatsoever_o be_v more_o than_o these_o come_v of_o evil_a on_o which_o place_n i_o remember_v one_o

yea_o yea_o nay_o nay_o so_o likewise_o in_o preach_v the_o name_n of_o god_n it_o must_v be_v first_o perform_v by_o the_o heart_n and_o then_o echo_v out_o by_o the_o tongue_n 8._o and_o afterward_o

a_o argument_n take_v from_o the_o wind_n and_o storm_n fulfil_v his_o word_n so_o that_o it_o be_v not_o enough_o for_o the_o wind_n to_o whistle_n or_o the_o rain_n to_o rattle_v if_o we_o shall_v

the_o separation_n who_o will_v not_o admit_v of_o any_o set_a form_n of_o prayer_n for_o that_o as_o they_o say_v be_v curse_v of_o the_o spirit_n but_o why_o then_o shall_v we_o have_v a_o set_a

chief_a of_o these_o be_v praise_n and_o that_o for_o the_o same_o reason_n because_o it_o shall_v outlast_v all_o other_o here_o we_o stand_v in_o need_n of_o thing_n necessary_a both_o for_o the_o
