upon_o that_o string_n but_o let_v we_o learn_v too_o humble_a ourselves_o with_o a_o good_a will_n and_o as_o i_o say_v afore_o let_v we_o consider_v that_o saint_n paul_n blame_v man_n nature_n show_v that_o all_o of_o we_o from_o the_o great_a too_o the_o least_o be_v plunge_a even_o too_o the_o bottom_n of_o hell_n until_o god_n pluck_v we_o back_o again_o and_o therewithal_o let_v we_o consider_v all_o the_o enormity_n that_o be_v do_v through_o the_o whole_a world_n and_o conclude_v that_o we_o ourselves_o shall_v do_v as_o much_o if_o god_n show_v we_o not_o his_o mercy_n and_o let_v the_o same_o stir_v we_o up_o too_o bridle_v ourselves_o lest_o we_o overshoot_v ourselves_o at_o some_o time_n and_o see_v it_o have_v please_v god_n too_o draw_v we_o unto_o he_o let_v we_o not_o turn_v back_o again_o too_o meddle_v with_o the_o lewdness_n of_o the_o unbeliever_n and_o no_o wonder_n though_o they_o stumble_v &_o tumble_v and_o reel_v too_o &_o fro_o for_o they_o have_v no_o light_n to_o direct_v they_o by_o but_o our_o lord_n shine_v upon_o us●_n by_o his_o word_n and_o give_v we_o eye_n by_o his_o holy_a spirit_n and_o therefore_o let_v we_o eschew_v too_o be_v like_o they_o as_z s._n paul_n exhort_v we_o here_o heereuntoo_o he_o add_v the_o top_n of_o all_o mischief_n which_o be_v that_o man_n go_v astray_o after_o their_o own_o kind_n continue_v in_o go_v outward_a from_o worse_a too_o worse_a and_o foade_v themselves_o with_o flattery_n whereby_o they_o cast_v their_o conscience_n into_o such_o a_o sleep_n as_o they_o feel_v no_o more_o any_o remorse_n or_o grief_n and_o that_o be_v the_o high_a way_n too_o make_v they_o utter_o past_o recovery_n now_o first_o of_o all_o let_v we_o learn_v here_o too_o prevent_v such_o vengeance_n of_o god_n which_o ought_v too_o make_v we_o quake_v and_o when_o we_o hear_v that_o such_o as_o abide_v still_o in_o their_o own_o nature_n and_o overshoot_v themselves_o so_o far_o as_o too_o be_v without_o scruple_n of_o conscience_n and_o too_o become_v as_o brute_n beast_n void_a of_o discretion_n too_o be_v move_v either_o with_o life_n or_o death_n or_o with_o any_o manner_n of_o feel_n of_o their_o own_o soul_n health_n let_v we_o a_o god_n name_n walk_v in_o fear_n and_o awe_n and_o bewail_v our_o sin_n every_o hour_n early_o and_o late_o that_o we_o be_v not_o harden_v after_o that_o fashion_n for_o we_o see_v how_o they_o that_o grow_v beastly_a after_o that_o sort_n do_v gather_v such_o a_o hard_a heartedness_n as_o a_o man_n can_v bow_v they_o after_o they_o have_v once_o get_v such_o a_o boldness_n in_o give_v themselves_o unto_o evil_n thus_o as_o touch_v the_o first_o point_n let_v we_o be_v right_a well_o assure_v that_o god_n revenge_v himself_o after_o a_o terrible_a manner_n against_o all_o such_o as_o foade_v themselves_o in_o their_o vice_n and_o take_v inordinate_a leave_n too_o do_v what_o they_o listen_v so_o that_o in_o the_o end_n they_o become_v brutish_a even_o as_o ass_n and_o dog_n and_o now_o for_o the_o second_o point_n if_o god_n use_v such_o rigour_n towards_o those_o which_o be_v never_o yet_o train_v too_o the_o gospel_n what_o will_v he_o do_v to_o we_o when_o he_o shall_v have_v show_v we_o the_o way_n of_o salvation_n a_o long_a time_n and_o yet_o we_o continue_v still_o like_o those_o that_o never_o taste_v of_o good_a instruction_n do_v we_o not_o think_v that_o the_o punishment_n shall_v be_v more_o horrible_a and_o dreadful_a upon_o we_o like_a as_o when_o s._n paul_n declare_v in_o the_o first_o too_o the_o roman_n that_o god_n give_v man_n over_o into_o disordinate_a and_o shameful_a lust_n so_o as_o they_o be_v utter_o past_o all_o shame_n he_o speak_v express_o of_o the_o heathen_a and_o unbeliever_n who_o have_v none_o other_o knowledge_n of_o god_n than_o by_o the_o sky_n and_o the_o earth_n and_o the_o creature_n they_o have_v none_o other_o help_n than_o that_o great_a book_n whereby_o too_o glorify_v god_n and_o yet_o forasmuch_o as_o they_o do_v it_o not_o therefore_o be_v they_o condemn_v after_o that_o manner_n but_o now_o can_v we_o have_v no_o such_o excuse_n as_o those_o silly_a soul_n have_v we_o can_v say_v we_o be_v not_o able_a too_o discern_v what_o be_v good_a because_o we_o be_v blind_v by_o adam_n sin_n and_o there_o be_v nothing_o but_o vanity_n in_o we_o for_o god_n have_v give_v we_o his_o word_n 105._o which_o be_v just_o call_v a_o lamp_n too_o guide_v we_o by_o we_o have_v the_o gospel_n where_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n declare_v that_o he_o be_v our_o guide_n and_o yet_o for_o all_o this_o if_o we_o will_v needs_o provoke_v god_n wilful_o by_o disaul_v the_o doctrine_n of_o salvation_n whereas_o we_o shall_v follow_v it_o of_o which_o sort_n there_o be_v many_o even_o at_o this_o day_n who_o seek_v too_o wallow_v in_o all_o lewdness_n and_o disorder_n and_o despise_v god_n open_o what_o shall_v become_v of_o we_o wherefore_o let_v we_o learn_v too_o walk_v in_o the_o fear_n of_o god_n and_o let_v we_o mark_v well_o that_o saint_n paul_n have_v not_o without_o cause_n set_v down_o here_o the_o top_n of_o all_o mischief_n of_o purpose_n to_o show_v we_o thereby_o what_o wage_n god_n will_v pay_v too_o all_o such_o as_o yield_v not_o to_o he_o in_o dew_n time_n and_o place_n but_o rather_o take_v liberty_n of_o all_o naughtiness_n as_o though_o they_o be_v escape_v out_o of_o his_o hand_n let_v we_o then_o be_v afraid_a too_o overshoot_v ourselves_o so_o far_o and_o then_o although_o we_o have_v wander_v far_o afore_o god_n can_v skill_v well_o enough_o too_o draw_v we_o to_o he_o let_v we_o be_v afraid_a lest_o god_n shall_v execute_v the_o say_a vengeance_n upon_o we_o 14._o as_o well_o as_o upon_o they_o according_a too_o this_o say_n of_o solomon_n that_o when_o the_o wicked_a man_n be_v come_v too_o extremity_n he_o despise_v all_o that_o be_v too_o say_v he_o regard_v neither_o life_n nor_o death_n but_o fling_v forth_o like_o a_o brute_n beast_n therefore_o let_v we_o quake_v at_o such_o threaten_n for_o fear_v lest_o god_n execute_v they_o upon_o we_o when_o we_o can_v abide_v too_o be_v rebuke_v for_o our_o vice_n and_o contrariwyze_v let_v we_o pratice_v the_o doctrine_n of_o solomon_n where_o he_o say_v 14._o happy_a be_v the_o man_n who_o heart_n prick_v he_o &_o quicken_v he_o up_o night_n and_o day_n let_v we_o learn_v then_o too_o be_v our_o own_o solicitor_n and_o too_o touch_v ourselves_o for_o our_o vice_n and_o when_o we_o enter_v into_o they_o let_v we_o be_v abash_v at_o they_o and_o cast_v down_o and_o condemn_v ourselves_o until_o god_n have_v relieve_v we_o with_o his_o mercy_n after_o that_o manner_n must_v we_o put_v this_o doctrine_n of_o s._n paul_n in_o ure_n too_o the_o end_n that_o when_o god_n have_v once_o knit_v we_o too_o he_o by_o the_o mean_n of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n and_o give_v we_o life_n we_o may_v take_v good_a heed_n that_o that_o life_n be_v not_o deface_v and_o quench_v in_o we_o through_o our_o own_o lewdness_n and_o unthankfulness_n again_o that_o be_v mind_v too_o continue_v in_o this_o doctrine_n may_v learn_v first_o of_o all_o too_o humble_a ourselves_o for_o it_o be_v certain_a that_o humility_n will_v cause_v we_o too_o resort_v unto_o god_n and_o second_o that_o our_o humility_n be_v match_v with_o wareness_n so_o as_o we_o be_v not_o reckless_a too_o flatter_v ourselves_o but_o that_o through_o the_o same_o wareness_n we_o strain_v ourselves_o too_o the_o uttermost_a too_o fight_n against_o all_o our_o vice_n and_o lust_n tarry_v our_o lord_n leisure_n until_o he_o rid_v we_o quite_o and_o clean_o of_o they_o &_o in_o the_o mean_a while_n let_v we_o always_o win_v somewhat_o of_o ourselves_o be_v it_o never_o so_o little_a so_o as_o it_o may_v continual_o appear_v that_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n work_v in_o we_o and_o make_v his_o grace_n too_o prevail_v by_o cause_v we_o too_o go_v forward_o in_o goodness_n that_o we_o may_v say_v i_o be_v so_o dispose_v as_o we_o may_v grow_v more_o and_o more_o until_o god_n have_v take_v we_o ou●_n of_o this_o world_n now_o let_v we_o fall_v down_o before_o the_o majesty_n of_o our_o good_a god_n with_o acknowledgement_n of_o our_o sin_n pray_v he_o too_o touch_v we_o so_o too_o the_o quick_a as_o it_o may_v draw_v we_o unto_o true_a repentance_n too_o continue_v in_o it_o all_o the_o time_n of_o our_o life_n that_o be_v utter_o beat_v down_o and_o make_v nothing_o in_o ourselves_o we_o
