A93757	Six several sermons preached on Isaiah, 38. I. Wherein that great duty of setting our body and soul in order, for we shall die, is at large opened and explained Wherein also many divine truths are made known relating to the same matter; and now published, because of the exceeding importance and concernment of this subject unto all people whatsoever.	Stafford, Richard, 1663-1703.	1696 (1696)	Wing S5135; ESTC R230779	115,810	178

teach_v it_o unto_o we_o by_o that_o common_a knowledge_n which_o he_o have_v give_v unto_o we_o as_o his_o reasonable_a creature_n but_o yet_o god_n will_v more_o abundant_o to_o acqnaint_v we_o with_o a_o lesson_n of_o so_o very_o great_a importance_n as_o indeed_o it_o be_v to_o every_o one_o of_o we_o and_o see_v that_o the_o same_o have_v a_o much_o further_a meaning_n and_o require_v

of_o god_n be_v one_o and_o the_o same_o according_a to_o that_o common_a maxim_n nothing_o be_v in_o god_n but_o what_o be_v god_n himself_o so_o that_o we_o be_v not_o to_o look_v upon_o those_o
