great_a king_n yet_o he_o be_v but_o a_o contemptible_a piece_n in_o the_o prophet_n eye_n because_o not_o a_o godly_a man._n we_o be_v apt_a to_o gaze_v upon_o the_o great_a one_o of_o the_o world_n to_o look_v at_o they_o because_o of_o their_o greatness_n and_o riches_n and_o honour_n but_o the_o truth_n be_v only_o the_o godly_a man_n be_v worth_a look_v at_o this_o be_v the_o man_n that_o god_n look_v at_o to_o this_o man_n will_v i_o look_v say_v god_n as_o if_o he_o be_v take_v with_o the_o sight_n i_o may_v show_v you_o too_o to_o what_o end_n we_o shall_v mark_v the_o godly_a man_n not_o as_o daniel_n enemy_n mark_v he_o to_o see_v if_o they_o can_v find_v he_o trip_v and_o not_o as_o many_o that_o mark_n david_n to_o encourage_v themselves_o to_o sin_n but_o we_o be_v to_o mark_v he_o as_o the_o apostle_n direct_v we_o phil._n 3.17_o mark_v such_o that_o you_o may_v follow_v their_o example_n and_o then_o how_o far_o we_o be_v to_o follow_v the_o example_n of_o the_o

godly_a man_n we_o use_v to_o say_v that_o be_v well_o that_o end_v well_o then_o sure_o it_o will_v be_v well_o with_o the_o godly_a man_n for_o he_o end_v well_o his_o end_n be_v peace_n he_o enter_v into_o peace_n and_o what_o a_o comfortable_a thing_n it_o be_v to_o stand_v by_o the_o bedside_n of_o a_o godly_a man_n to_o hear_v how_o comfortable_o he_o talk_v of_o go_v to_o god_n i_o know_v say_v he_o who_o i_o have_v believe_v and_o how_o familiar_o he_o can_v speak_v of_o death_n oh_o death_n where_o be_v thy_o sting_n and_o with_o what_o desire_n and_o long_n he_o wait_v for_o his_o great_a change_n i_o shall_v but_o change_v my_o place_n i_o shall_v not_o change_v my_o company_n and_o with_o what_o quietness_n he_o can_v lie_v down_o in_o the_o grave_a with_o as_o much_o

the_o prophet_n isaiah_n there_o be_v no_o peace_n say_v my_o god_n to_o the_o wicked_a it_o be_v not_o i_o but_o god_n that_o say_v it_o say_v the_o prophet_n false_a prophet_n may_v cry_v peace_n peace_n to_o you_o say_v you_o may_v repent_v at_o last_o and_o do_v well_o enough_o and_o your_o own_o heart_n may_v cry_v peace_n peace_n to_o you_o god_n be_v merciful_a and_o all_o be_v sinner_n as_o well_o as_o we_o i_o but_o there_o be_v no_o peace_n to_o the_o wicked_a say_v my_o god_n god_n have_v say_v it_o that_o man_n go_v on_o in_o way_n of_o wickedness_n there_o be_v no_o peace_n

and_o servant_n of_o god_n that_o be_v take_v from_o you_o i_o may_v go_v over_o the_o text_n again_o and_o show_v you_o how_o he_o be_v this_o perfect_a man_n whether_o you_o look_v upon_o he_o as_o a_o man_n or_o as_o a_o christian_a or_o as_o a_o minister_n he_o have_v those_o perfection_n in_o he_o that_o do_v render_v he_o belove_v and_o honour_v by_o all_o that_o know_v he_o and_o if_o there_o be_v any_o that_o have_v not_o a_o respect_n and_o value_n for_o he_o it_o be_v because_o they_o do_v not_o know_v he_o he_o be_v no_o empty-cask_n but_o a_o vessel_n fill_v with_o choice_n and_o precious_a liquor_n as_o appear_v by_o those_o gracious_a and_o savoury_a discourse_n which_o do_v so_o often_o come_v from_o he_o as_o to_o the_o gift_n and_o grace_n of_o god_n spirit_n he_o have_v they_o both_o in_o a_o very_a high_a degree_n of_o perfection_n he_o be_v both_o able_a to_o teach_v and_o apt_a to_o teach_v which_o be_v but_o a_o rare_a conjunction_n for_o many_o that_o be_v most_o able_a to_o teach_v be_v not_o always_o most_o apt_a and_o ready_a to_o teach_v and_o some_o that_o be_v most_o apt_a and_o forward_a to_o teach_v they_o be_v not_o always_o most_o able_a to_o teach_v he_o have_v a_o spring_n of_o live_a water_n within_o he_o in_o his_o prayer_n and_o preach_a he_o need_v not_o pump_n for_o they_o do_v flow_v from_o he_o as_o water_n out_o of_o a_o full_a fountain_n out_o of_o the_o abundance_n of_o his_o heart_n we_o may_v true_o say_v he_o do_v both_o preach_v and_o pray_v god_n have_v give_v he_o the_o tongue_n of_o the_o learned_a whereby_o he_o be_v able_a to_o speak_v a_o word_n in_o season_n upon_o all_o occasion_n the_o word_n of_o god_n do_v dwell_v so_o rich_o in_o he_o that_o he_o need_v not_o any_o long_a time_n in_o preparation_n but_o can_v speak_v to_o any_o subject_a both_o pertinent_o and_o profitable_o upon_o very_o short_a warning_n he_o be_v one_o fit_v not_o only_o to_o declare_v the_o truth_n but_o to_o defend_v the_o truth_n witness_v that_o book_n of_o his_o concern_v the_o immortality_n of_o the_o soul_n he_o be_v mighty_a in_o prayer_n and_o powerful_a in_o preach_v i_o have_v often_o think_v he_o have_v a_o more_o than_o ordinary_a presence_n of_o god_n in_o all_o that_o he_o do_v but_o second_o he_o be_v this_o upright_a man_n and_o indeed_o his_o great_a perfection_n lie_v in_o that_o uprightness_n and_o integrity_n of_o spirit_n that_o appear_v in_o he_o in_o all_o that_o he_o do_v he_o do_v not_o seek_v himself_o or_o serve_v himself_o of_o the_o gospel_n he_o have_v his_o eye_n to_o his_o master_n glory_n and_o not_o to_o his_o own_o gain_n or_o glory_n though_o he_o have_v the_o oversight_n of_o two_o congregation_n yet_o he_o do_v not_o take_v the_o oversight_n of_o they_o for_o filthy_a lucre_n sake_n i_o suppose_v many_o here_o can_v bear_v he_o witness_v that_o he_o make_v not_o one_o penny_n of_o profit_n in_o the_o year_n but_o rather_o spend_v many_o pound_n upon_o their_o service_n god_n have_v blessed_v he_o with_o a_o estate_n of_o his_o own_o and_o he_o rejoice_v to_o preach_v the_o gospel_n free_o though_o he_o have_v a_o double_a care_n and_o a_o double_a charge_n upon_o he_o yet_o he_o have_v not_o a_o double_a benefit_n he_o can_v true_o say_v as_o paul_n act._n 20.33_o i_o have_v covet_v no_o man_n silver_n or_o gold_n no_o it_o be_v the_o holy_a lucre_n of_o gain_v of_o soul_n to_o christ_n that_o his_o heart_n do_v most_o covet_v and_o therein_o god_n give_v he_o the_o desire_n of_o his_o heart_n his_o ministry_n be_v not_o blast_v with_o dry_a breast_n and_o a_o miscarry_v womb_n but_o as_o he_o travel_v with_o the_o salvation_n of_o sinner_n so_o he_o see_v the_o fruit_n of_o the_o travel_n of_o his_o soul_n and_o be_v
