call_v himself_o the_o quire_n of_o the_o earth_n as_o if_o shall_v brag_v of_o his_o liberality_n thus_o he_o which_o be_v evil_a itself_o do_v shun_v the_o name_n because_o he_o will_v not_o be_v hate_v and_o therefore_o no_o marvel_n if_o man_n call_v evil_a good_a and_o will_v be_v count_v honest_a though_o they_o be_v never_o so_o lewd_a for_o so_o will_v the_o devil_n but_o as_o god_n never_o call_v the_o devil_n but_o by_o those_o name_n which_o the_o devil_n hate_v so_o he_o never_o call_v sinner_n by_o those_o name_n which_o they_o call_v themselves_o for_o if_o you_o observe_v the_o scripture_n there_o be_v no_o name_n of_o the_o devil_n but_o in_o some_o place_n of_o scripture_n or_o other_o the_o wicked_a be_v call_v by_o the_o same_o name_n he_o be_v call_v a_o liar_n &_o they_o be_v call_v liar_n he_o be_v call_v a_o tempter_n &_o they_o be_v call_v tempter_n he_o be_v call_v a_o murderer_n &_o they_o be_v call_v murderer_n he_o be_v call_v a_o slanderer_n and_o they_o be_v call_v slanderer_n he_o be_v call_v a_o viper_n &_o they_o be_v call_v viper_n he_o be_v call_v a_o lion_n &_o they_o be_v call_v lion_n he_o be_v call_v a_o wolf_n and_o they_o be_v call_v wolf_n he_o be_v call_v a_o serpent_n and_o they_o be_v call_v serpent_n thus_o god_n will_v they_o that_o shall_v be_v damn_v shall_v have_v the_o name_n of_o he_o which_o be_v damn_v to_o put_v they_o in_o mind_n now_o none_o of_o the_o devil_n name_n be_v in_o the_o book_n of_o life_n and_o therefore_o liar_n &_o tempter_n and_o slanderer_n and_o murderer_n and_o defamer_n be_v not_o therefore_o these_o be_v the_o devil_n name_n this_o i_o note_v to_o show_v you_o how_o deadly_a god_n do_v hate_v sin_n that_o neither_o the_o devil_n nor_o his_o follower_n can_v ever_o get_v a_o good_a name_n of_o he_o for_o all_o his_o compass_n he_o can_v never_o compass_v this_o to_o shuffle_v any_o praise_n of_o himself_o into_o this_o book_n of_o life_n for_o he_o do_v not_o compass_v heaven_n but_o earth_n though_o he_o will_v compass_v both_o the_o devil_n himself_o do_v tell_v we_o here_o that_o he_o compass_v &_o he_o tell_v we_o not_o why_o he_o compass_v but_o his_o name_n satan_n that_o go_v before_o which_o he_o speak_v not_o of_o do_v tell_v we_o why_o he_o compass_v because_o it_o signify_v a_o adversary_n it_o give_v we_o to_o understande_v that_o he_o compass_v the_o earth_n like_o a_o adversary_n god_n do_v compass_v the_o earth_n like_o a_o wall_n to_o defend_v it_o the_o devil_n compass_v the_o earth_n like_o a_o enemy_n to_o besiege_v it_o for_o enemy_n be_v his_o name_n he_o be_v envy_n even_o to_o the_o name_n three_o thing_n i_o note_v wherefore_o the_o devil_n may_v be_v say_v to_o compass_v the_o earth_n first_o because_o he_o tempt_v all_o man_n second_o because_o he_o tempt_v to_o all_o sin_n three_o because_o he_o tempt_v by_o all_o mean_n so_o that_o whosoever_o sin_v wherein_o soever_o he_o offend_v whereby_o so_o ever_o he_o be_v allure_v the_o sin_n and_o the_o sinner_n and_o the_o bait_n be_v compass_v and_o contrive_v by_o this_o archpolitique_a which_o call_v himself_o a_o compasser_n many_o have_v their_o name_n for_o naught_o because_o they_o do_v nothing_o for_o they_o like_o laban_n image_n which_o be_v call_v god_n though_o they_o be_v but_o block_n but_o the_o devil_n deserve_v his_o name_n he_o be_v not_o call_v a_o tempter_n and_o a_o liar_n and_o a_o slanderer_n and_o a_o accuser_n and_o a_o deceiver_n and_o a_o murderer_n and_o a_o compasser_n in_o vain_a like_a saint_n george_n which_o be_v always_o on_o horseback_n and_o never_o ride_v but_o he_o will_v do_v more_o than_o by_o his_o office_n he_o be_v bind_v to_o other_o be_v call_v officer_n because_o they_o have_v a_o office_n but_o he_o be_v call_v enemy_n because_o he_o show_v his_o envy_n other_o be_v call_v justicer_n because_o they_o shall_v do_v justice_n but_o he_o be_v call_v a_o tempter_n because_o he_o practise_v temptation_n other_o be_v call_v pastor_n because_o they_o shall_v feed_v but_o he_o be_v call_v a_o devourer_n because_o he_o do_v devour_v and_o we_o call_v he_o a_o compasser_n because_o that_o he_o do_v compass_v ever_o since_o he_o fall_v from_o heaven_n he_o have_v live_v like_o cain_n which_o can_v rest_v in_o a_o place_n but_o be_v a_o runagate_n over_o the_o earth_n from_o door_n to_o door_n from_o man_n to_o man_n beg_v for_o sin_n as_o the_o starve_a soul_n beg_v for_o bread_n he_o will_v have_v dwell_v in_o heaven_n and_o not_o be_v compass_v the_o earth_n he_o shall_v have_v sing_v with_o the_o angel_n &_o not_o be_v quarel_v with_o man_n but_o he_o have_v change_v his_o call_n &_o be_v become_v a_o compasser_n that_o be_v to_o lay_v fetter_n upon_o man_n as_o god_n have_v fetter_v he_o leave_v they_o shall_v ascend_v to_o the_o place_n from_o whence_o he_o be_v fall_v therefore_o in_o this_o the_o liar_n speak_v truth_n when_o he_o say_v i_o come_v from_o compass_v the_o earth_n as_o if_o he_o shall_v say_v to_o god_n i_o come_v from_o the_o slaughter_n of_o thy_o servant_n not_o to_o ask_v forgevenes_n for_o all_o the_o soul_n which_o he_o have_v slay_v already_o but_o to_o get_v a_o commission_n that_o god_n will_v make_v he_o knight_n marshal_n over_o the_o world_n to_o slay_v and_o kill_v as_o many_o as_o he_o hate_v like_o the_o bramble_n which_o set_v itself_o on_o fire_n first_o and_o then_o fire_v all_o the_o wood_n peter_n describe_v the_o devil_n walk_n say_v that_o he_o go_v about_o the_o devil_n say_v that_o he_o go_v a_o compass_n peter_n put_v in_o seek_v who_o he_o may_v devour_v the_o devil_n leave_v out_o devour_v and_o say_v no_o more_o but_o that_o he_o compass_v this_o circular_a walk_n be_v particular_a to_o the_o devil_n and_o therefore_o may_v be_v call_v the_o devil_n circuit_n all_o other_o creature_n go_v forward_o but_o the_o devil_n go_v about_o which_o may_v well_o be_v apply_v to_o the_o crafty_a devil_n because_o to_o go_v about_o be_v common_o take_v to_o undermine_v when_o he_o mean_v he_o will_v destroy_v you_o than_o we_o say_v he_o will_v compass_v you_o so_o when_o the_o devil_n compass_v then_o beware_v least_o he_o devour_v for_o the_o devil_n go_v about_o man_n as_o the_o fowler_n go_v about_o the_o lark_n to_o snare_v she_o as_o the_o thief_n go_v about_o the_o house_n to_o rob_v it_o as_o the_o ivy_n go_v about_o the_o oak_n to_o kill_v it_o the_o devil_n walk_n be_v a_o siege_n which_o go_v about_o but_o to_o find_v a_o issue_n to_o go_v in_o for_o he_o go_v about_o but_o until_o he_o can_v get_v in_o to_o be_v a_o possessor_n he_o be_v content_a to_o be_v a_o compasser_n the_o first_o name_n the_o devil_n have_v in_o scripture_n be_v a_o serpent_n he_o be_v a_o serpent_n and_o so_o be_v his_o way_n like_o a_o serpent_n which_o wind_v himself_o like_o a_o circle_n as_o god_n be_v say_v to_o make_v a_o hedge_n about_o man_n so_o here_o the_o devil_n be_v say_v to_o make_v a_o hedge_n about_o man_n but_o this_o be_v a_o hedge_n of_o temptation_n and_o that_o be_v a_o hedge_n against_o temptation_n as_o david_n say_v the_o angel_n compass_v we_o so_o may_v he_o say_v the_o devil_n compass_n us._n satan_n compass_v and_o man_n be_v compass_v satan_n be_v like_o the_o circumference_n and_o man_n be_v as_o it_o be_v the_o centre_n that_o be_v temptation_n go_v round_o about_o he_o and_o he_o dwell_v in_o the_o midst_n of_o they_o thus_o much_o of_o compass_v now_o what_o he_o do_v compass_v i_o come_v from_o compass_v the_o earth_n this_o be_v the_o devil_n pilgrimage_n from_o one_o end_n of_o the_o earth_n to_o the_o other_o and_o then_o to_o the_o other_o again_o and_o then_o back_o again_o like_o a_o wander_a merchant_n which_o seek_v his_o traffic_n where_o he_o can_v speed_v cheap_a i_o have_v hear_v of_o some_o traveller_n which_o have_v go_v about_o the_o earth_n but_o i_o never_o hear_v of_o any_o that_o have_v see_v all_o part_n of_o the_o earth_n but_o this_o old_a pilgrim_n satan_n which_o have_v be_v in_o heaven_n and_o in_o paradise_n and_o in_o the_o earth_n and_o in_o the_o sea_n and_o in_o hell_n and_o yet_o have_v not_o do_v his_o walk_n but_o like_o the_o sun_n which_o course_v about_o the_o earth_n every_o day_n so_o there_o be_v no_o day_n but_o satan_n see_v every_o man_n upon_o earth_n as_o a_o compass_n have_v no_o end_n so_o he_o make_v no_o end_n of_o compass_v because_o he_o be_v such_o a_o compasser_n of_o the_o world_n therefore_o paul_n call_v he_o the_o god_n of_o this_o world_n not_o a_o piece_n of_o the_o world_n as_o
