have_v two_o distinct_a part_n of_o which_o i_o will_v speak_v in_o their_o order_n sect._n 1_o the_o first_o part_n be_v when_o anger_n be_v a_o virtue_n &_o lawful_a for_o answer_v hereof_o we_o must_v understand_v that_o in_o just_a and_o lawful_a anger_n there_o be_v three_o thing_n a_o right_a beginning_n or_o motive_n a_o right_a object_n and_o a_o right_a manner_n of_o be_v angry_a to_o the_o right_a beginning_n of_o anger_n three_o thing_n be_v require_v first_o that_o the_o occasion_n of_o anger_n be_v just_a and_o weighty_a as_o namely_o a_o manifest_a offence_n of_o god_n take_v a_o example_n or_o two_o moses_n in_o sundry_a place_n be_v say_v to_o be_v angry_a &_o the_o occasion_n of_o his_o anger_n be_v great_a as_o appear_v in_o the_o particular_n first_o because_o some_o of_o the_o israelit_n against_o god_n commandment_n have_v reserve_v manna_n till_o the_o next_o day_n exod._n 16._o 20._o again_o he_o be_v angry_a because_o the_o israelite_n have_v tempt_v god_n

heathenish_a woman_n david_n in_o like_a manner_n 2._o sam._n 13._o 20_o 21._o be_v angry_a upon_o this_o occasion_n because_o ammon_n his_o son_n have_v deffour_v his_o sister_n thamar_n elias_n be_v

nehemias_n chap._n 6._o ver_fw-la 5._o be_v very_o angry_a because_o the_o israelite_n oppress_v one_o another_o with_o usury_n and_o other_o kind_n of_o exaction_n jeremic_a also_o chap._n 6._o 11._o be_v angry_a for_o this_o because_o the_o israelite_n be_v of_o uncircumcised_a heart_n &_o ear_n and_o the_o word_n of_o the_o lord_n be_v unto_o they_o as_o a_o reproach_n &_o they_o take_v no_o delight_n therein_o second_o it_o be_v require_v that_o anger_n be_v conceive_v upon_o counsel_n and_o deliberation_n pro._n 20._o 18._o establish_v thy_o thought_n by_o counsel_n if_o thought_n must_v be_v establish_v by_o counsel_n than_o the_o affection_n &_o so_o our_o anger_n also_o and_o the_o apostle_n say_v jam._n 1._o 19_o be_v slow_a to_o wrath_n now_o the_o reason_n be_v plain_a counsel_n ought_v to_o be_v the_o foundation_n of_o all_o our_o action_n and_o therefore_o much_o more_o of_o our_o affection_n which_o be_v the_o beginning_n of_o our_o action_n three_o just_a and_o lawful_a anger_n must_v be_v kindle_v and_o stir_v up_o by_o good_a and_o holy_a affection_n as_o namely_o by_o desire_n to_o maintain_v the_o honour_n and_o praise_n of_o god_n by_o the_o love_n of_o justice_n and_o virtue_n by_o hatred_n and_o detestation_n of_o vice_n and_o of_o all_o that_o be_v evil_a one_o say_v well_o to_o this_o purpose_n that_o anger_n must_v attend_v upon_o virtue_n and_o be_v stir_v up_o by_o it_o against_o sin_n as_o the_o dog_n attend_v upon_o the_o shepherd_n and_o wait_v upon_o his_o eye_n and_o hand_n when_o to_o follow_v he_o and_o when_o to_o pursue_v the_o wolf_n the_o second_o thing_n in_o good_a anger_n be_v a_o fit_a object_n or_o matter_n to_o work_v upon_o touch_v which_o two_o thing_n must_v be_v remember_v first_o we_o must_v put_v a_o difference_n between_o the_o person_n and_o the_o offence_n or_o sin_n of_o the_o person_n the_o sin_n of_o the_o person_n be_v the_o proper_a object_n of_o anger_n and_o not_o the_o person_n but_o only_o by_o reason_n of_o the_o sin_n thus_o david_n say_v of_o himself_o that_o he_o be_v consume_v with_o anger_n not_o because_o the_o man_n with_o who_o he_o be_v angry_a be_v his_o enemy_n but_o because_o they_o keep_v not_o god_n law_n psal._n 119._o 139._o thus_o moses_n be_v angry_a at_o the_o idolatry_n of_o the_o israelite_n wherewith_o they_o have_v sin_v against_o god_n forty_o day_n together_o &_o yet_o he_o pray_v earnest_o unto_o god_n for_o their_o person_n as_o we_o read_v exod._n 32._o but_o it_o be_v allege_v to_o the_o contrary_a that_o david_n direct_v his_o anger_n against_o the_o person_n of_o his_o enemy_n especial_o in_o psal._n 109._o answ._n first_o prophet_n as_o have_v be_v say_v heretofore_o be_v endue_v with_o a_o special_a measure_n of_o zeal_n and_o their_o zeal_n be_v a_o pure_a zeal_n take_v up_o special_o for_o the_o glory_n and_o honour_n of_o god_n but_o our_o zeal_n against_o our_o enemy_n be_v common_o mix_v with_o hatred_n envy_n and_o self-love_n therefore_o we_o must_v not_o nay_o we_o can_v follow_v their_o example_n second_o imprecation_n use_v by_o david_n be_v prediction_n rather_o than_o prayer_n for_o he_o rather_o foretell_v in_o they_o what_o shall_v come_v to_o pass_v than_o pray_v that_o it_o may_v come_v to_o pass_v three_o david_n in_o his_o imprecation_n accurse_v not_o his_o own_o private_a enemy_n but_o the_o enemy_n of_o god_n and_o not_o all_o they_o but_o such_o only_a as_o be_v incurable_a for_o by_o the_o spirit_n of_o prophecy_n he_o know_v the_o state_n of_o those_o against_o who_o he_o do_v pray_v so_o do_v not_o we_o second_o we_o must_v put_v a_o difference_n between_o the_o cause_n and_o offence_n of_o god_n and_o the_o cause_n and_o offence_n of_o man●_n now_o just_a anger_n must_v be_v direct_v against_o person_n for_o the_o offence_n of_o god_n proper_o and_o not_o for_o private_a offence_n but_o only_o so_o far_o forth_o as_o it_o tend_v to_o the_o offence_n of_o god_n thus_o mi●iam_n and_o aaron_n murmur_v against_o moses_n because_o he_o have_v marry_v a_o woman_n of_o aethiopia_n but_o this_o be_v only_o a_o private_a offence_n and_o therefore_o moses_n behave_v himself_o meek_o towards_o they_o numb_a 12._o 3._o the_o three_o thing_n in_o good_a anger_n be_v the_o right_a manner_n of_o conceive_v it_o wherein_o these_o caution_n be_v to_o be_v observe_v first_o that_o our_o anger_n be_v mix_v and_o temper_v with_o charity_n and_o love_n it_o be_v the_o property_n of_o god_n himself_o in_o wrath_n to_o remember_v mercy_n hab._n 3._o 2._o and_o herein_o we_o must_v be_v like_a unto_o he_o this_o be_v moses_n his_o practice_n who_o out_o of_o his_o love_n pray_v for_o those_o with_o who_o he_o be_v angry_a exod._n 32._o second_o anger_n against_o any_o offence_n must_v be_v mix_v with_o sorrow_n for_o the_o same_o offence_n thus_o christ_n be_v angry_a with_o the_o jew_n but_o withal_o he_o sorrow_v for_o the_o hardness_n of_o their_o heart_n mark_n 3._o 5._o the_o reason_n hereof_o be_v this_o in_o any_o society_n whatsoever_o it_o be_v if_o one_o member_n sin_v the_o sin_n of_o that_o one_o member_n be_v the_o punishment_n of_o the_o rest_n that_o be_v in_o that_o society_n even_o as_o it_o be_v in_o the_o body_n if_o one_o part_n be_v affect_v and_o ill_a at_o ease_n the_o rest_n will_v be_v distemper_v
