find_v to_o be_v certain_a and_o infallible_a also_o we_o have_v to_o mark_v this_o similitude_n that_o moses_n set_v down_o here_o namely_o that_o the_o ammorrhytes_n come_v out_o like_o bee_n for_o we_o know_v that_o when_o bee_n be_v angry_a they_o sting_v man_n and_o they_o regard_v not_o whether_o man_n be_v too_o strong_a for_o they_o but_o they_o fly_v upon_o they_o with_o such_o choler_n

encourage_v they_o for_o it_o belong_v to_o he_o only_o to_o strengthen_v man_n when_o it_o please_v he_o to_o defend_v we_o
be_v win_v by_o we_o then_o shall_v our_o mildness_n and_o gentleness_n turn_v to_o burn_a coal_n against_o they_o wherewith_o they_o shall_v be_v consume_v beside_o this_o the_o lord_n will_v

that_o be_v but_o to_o their_o own_o profit_n and_o to_o their_o neighbour_n loss_n and_o that_o be_v no_o mean_n of_o peace_n in_o deed_n desire_v we_o then_o to_o be_v at_o peace_n desire_v we_o

that_o he_o do_v it_o of_o purpose_n to_o overthrow_v they_o and_o destroy_v they_o which_o be_v much_o more_o now_o this_o be_v very_o strange_a gear_n at_o the_o first_o sight_n and_o that_o be_v

even_o the_o wicked_a sort_n do_v give_v evidence_n against_o themselves_o and_o although_o all_o the_o world_n will_v excuse_v they_o and_o that_o both_o great_a &_o small_a do_v acquit_v they_o yet_o have_v they_o a_o hartbiting_a within_o they_o which_o make_v they_o to_o perceive_v that_o whensoever_o they_o offend_v or_o sin_n they_o do_v it_o willing_o of_o their_o own_o accord_n of_o

to_o take_v it_o as_o a_o token_n of_o his_o fatherly_a goodness_n as_o i_o say_v afore_o but_o his_o will_n be_v to_o bear_v with_o we_o and_o he_o set_v the_o say_a chastisement_n before_o we_o to_o

it_o here_o for_o he_o say_v not_o god_n will_v punish_v you_o if_o you_o offend_v but_o he_o say_v you_o have_v see_v how_o they_o be_v punish_v which_o worship_v beelphegor_a now_o therefore_o

he_o likewise_o in_o the_o ten_o of_o the_o first_o to_o the_o corinthian_n â—â—_o 1._o cor._n â—â—_o after_o he_o have_v tell_v they_o how_o god_n have_v punish_v idolater_n rebel_n and_o such_o as_o

that_o he_o be_v about_o to_o warn_v they_o to_o their_o benefit_n and_o welfare_n now_o remain_v to_o apply_v this_o gear_n to_o our_o use_n when_o god_n send_v any_o trouble_n upon_o the_o world_n let_v we_o understand_v that_o it_o be_v not_o without_o cause_n that_o he_o be_v so_o sore_o displease_v for_o if_o we_o consider_v the_o offence_n and_o misdeed_n that_o have_v be_v commit_v we_o must_v needs_o conclude_v y_z t_o god_n show_v himself_o a_o judge_n in_o punish_v sin_n but_o do_v that_o serve_v only_o for_o they_o that_o feel_v the_o stroke_n no_o god_n will_v be_v to_o show_v

o_o lord_n when_o thou_o execute_a thy_o judgement_n the_o dweller_n of_o the_o earth_n shall_v learn_v righteousness_n for_o when_o god_n wink_v and_o punish_v not_o the_o wicked_a and_o

of_o all_o right_a and_o of_o all_o equity_n now_o then_o let_v we_o conceive_v god_n as_o he_o be_v that_o be_v to_o wit_n with_o his_o justice_n rightuousnesse_n and_o equity_n and_o then_o shall_v

for_o why_o here_o be_v no_o talk_n of_o a_o naked_a be_v we_o must_v not_o imagine_v god_n to_o be_v as_o a_o idol_n we_o must_v conceive_v he_o with_o his_o righteousness_n and_o equity_n therefore_o when_o we_o hate_v the_o thing_n that_o be_v in_o god_n that_o be_v to_o say_v his_o justice_n and_o righteousness_n we_o must_v needs_o hate_v his_o own_o self_n for_o he_o can_v

against_o he_o and_o be_v not_o that_o a_o curse_a thing_n so_o then_o let_v we_o learn_v to_o abhor_v our_o own_o sin_n and_o vice_n because_o they_o attaint_v we_o as_o traitor_n to_o god_n and_o

the_o love_a of_o god_n he_o add_v that_o those_o which_o love_v he_o do_v also_o keep_v his_o commandment_n therefore_o our_o life_n must_v be_v answerable_a in_o that_o behalf_n and_o be_v as_o a_o

then_o that_o the_o very_a nature_n of_o god_n be_v such_o as_o he_o seek_v nothing_o but_o to_o draw_v man_n to_o he_o by_o all_o manner_n of_o gentleness_n and_o to_o use_v his_o goodness_n towards_o they_o when_o he_o punish_v they_o it_o be_v as_o you_o will_v say_v against_o his_o nature_n not_o that_o it_o be_v not_o meet_v for_o god_n to_o punish_v as_o well_o as_o to_o show_v

to_o utter_v his_o good_a will_n to_o we_o if_o we_o will_v suffer_v he_o for_o in_o very_a deed_n he_o will_v fain_o be_v know_v to_o be_v good_a and_o pitiful_a and_o it_o be_v the_o thing_n wherein_o his_o glory_n do_v chief_o shine_v forth_o therefore_o let_v we_o mark_v well_o how_o it_o be_v not_o for_o nought_o that_o moses_n have_v assign_v here_o a_o thousand_o generation_n to_o

it_o ensue_v that_o this_o also_o be_v comprehend_v therein_o and_o where_o shall_v we_o put_v it_o but_o under_o this_o sentence_n therefore_o we_o must_v conclude_v that_o although_o god_n have_v

let_v we_o think_v upon_o that_o which_o be_v add_v here_o that_o when_o god_n have_v command_v his_o people_n to_o destroy_v the_o idolater_n he_o add_v beware_v you_o meddle_v not_o which_o it_o

after_o they_o have_v offend_v for_o the_o heathen_a might_n yet_o have_v some_o excuse_n because_o they_o have_v not_o have_v any_o teach_n but_o the_o israelite_n sin_v wilful_o &_o their_o do_n

too_o sharp_a it_o be_v a_o overshoot_n of_o ourselves_o which_o proceed_v of_o our_o sinfulness_n by_o reason_n whereof_o although_o the_o correction_n which_o we_o minister_v be_v out_o of_o god_n

thereby_o therefore_o when_o as_o the_o heathen_a make_v law_n it_o come_v not_o first_o of_o all_o of_o their_o own_o brayn_n for_o whereas_o they_o make_v fond_a and_o blockish_a law_n therein_o

you_o see_v then_o how_o punishment_n do_v serve_v for_o example_n and_o that_o be_v a_o thing_n well_o worthy_a to_o be_v mark_v for_o we_o may_v gather_v a_o double_a lesson_n thereof_o first_o

for_o we_o know_v to_o what_o end_n marriage_n be_v ordain_v namely_o to_o the_o intent_n that_o man_n shall_v live_v honest_o together_o and_o that_o there_o shall_v be_v no_o such_o beastly_a

this_o always_o remain_v &_o be_v so_o engrave_v in_o their_o mind_n as_o it_o can_v not_o be_v wipe_v out_o that_o god_n mean_v there_o shall_v be_v such_o a_o mark_n in_o marriage_n and_o that_o man_n shall_v know_v that_o he_o have_v a_o care_n of_o it_o see_v it_o be_v so_o let_v we_o take_v good_a heed_n
right_a in_o this_o case_n be_v equal_a and_o mutual_a as_o i_o have_v show_v afore_o and_o so_o you_o see_v what_o we_o have_v at_o this_o day_n to_o observe_v namely_o that_o every_o man_n ought_v to_o consider_v that_o the_o vocation_n which_o he_o have_v of_o god_n be_v such_o a_o yoke_n as_o he_o may_v not_o seek_v to_o shake_v off_o for_o it_o be_v the_o chief_a and_o principal_a service_n which_o we_o can_v render_v unto_o god_n all_o our_o whole_a life-time_n to_o have_v a_o eye_n unto_o that_o which_o he_o require_v of_o we_o and_o when_o he_o have_v set_v we_o in_o some_o estate_n and_o calling_n to_o do_v that_o which_o belong_v unto_o our_o dewtie_n and_o that_o every_o one_o yield_v himself_o obedient_a in_o all_o humbleness_n to_o say_v have_v god_n call_v i_o unto_o this_o end_n i_o must_v frame_v myself_o thereunto_o without_o any_o reply_n or_o gainsay_n therefore_o when_o we_o be_v of_o a_o mild_a and_o gentle_a disposition_n submit_v ourselves_o unto_o y_z e_o will_n of_o our_o god_n therein_o say_v i_o consist_v the_o principal_a service_n which_o he_o like_v and_o desire_v and_o without_o this_o all_o our_o virtue_n be_v nought_o else_o in_o his_o sight_n but_o dung_n and_o filthynesse_n now_o see_v it_o be_v so_o let_v we_o consider_v as_o touch_v marriage_n what_o the_o call_n of_o god_n be_v and_o what_o manner_n of_o law_n or_o what_o yoke_n he_o lay_v on_o the_o neck_n of_o man_n to_o wit_n that_o he_o live_v quiet_o with_o his_o wife_n bear_v with_o those_o infirmity_n which_o be_v in_o she_o &_o be_v a_o companion_n to_o live_v and_o to_o

be_v a_o kind_n of_o punishment_n which_o he_o lay_v upon_o us._n you_o see_v then_o how_o he_o punish_v the_o wickedness_n of_o the_o father_n upon_o the_o child_n and_o yet_o do_v wrong_a unto_o none_o let_v we_o mind_n that_o and_o in_o very_a deed_n
we_o ought_v to_o observe_v what_o difference_n there_o be_v between_o god_n and_o man_n a_o earthly_a judge_n punish_v the_o fault_n which_o be_v know_v unto_o he_o but_o before_o god_n it_o be_v

find_v himself_o short_a again_o we_o see_v not_o the_o cause_n why_o god_n punish_v young_a child_n even_o such_o as_o be_v yet_o in_o their_o mother_n womb_n but_o he_o know_v a_o reason_n why_o he_o do_v so_o and_o we_o must_v with_o all_o humbleness_n of_o mind_n reverence_v his_o judgement_n when_o a_o thing_n seem_v strange_a unto_o we_o and_o we_o be_v tempt_v to_o reason_n against_o

why_o we_o have_v declare_v and_o in_o deed_n he_o protest_v also_o by_o his_o prophet_n ezechiel_n 18.4_o ezech._n 18.4_o that_o he_o will_v not_o punish_v the_o child_n for_o the_o father_n sake_n for_o it_o be_v now_o grow_v to_o a_o common_a proverb_n in_o israel_n that_o they_o which_o be_v trouble_v with_o war_n famine_n and_o other_o calamity_n will_v say_v what_o we_o be_v not_o so_o

stand_v we_o must_v vouchsafe_v he_o so_o much_o honour_n as_o to_o confess_v that_o when_o he_o punish_v the_o iniquity_n of_o the_o father_n upon_o the_o child_n he_o do_v it_o on_o good_a right_n and_o how_o will_v we_o say_v it_o be_v not_o for_o we_o to_o inquire_v beyond_o our_o measure_n let_v we_o content_v ourselves_o with_o this_o that_o god_n goodness_n be_v a_o unblameable_a justice_n and_o in_o the_o mean_a while_n let_v we_o walk_v as_o he_o have_v command_v us._n let_v we_o not_o say_v he_o do_v this_o and_o why_o may_v not_o we_o do_v the_o like_a yea_o but_o what_o be_v we_o for_o god_n know_v his_o rule_n full_a well_o but_o we_o for_o our_o part_n have_v need_v to_o be_v hold_v in_o awe_n and_o under_o subjection_n and_o if_o we_o will_v be_v at_o liberty_n to_o do_v what_o seem_v good_a to_o ourselves_o there_o will_v be_v too_o too_o great_a confusion_n you_o see_v then_o what_o we_o have_v to_o bear_v in_o mind_n when_o it_o be_v say_v in_o this_o place_n that_o the_o father_n shall_v not_o be_v punish_v for_o the_o child_n fault_n nor_o the_o child_n for_o the_o father_n but_o that_o he_o which_o offend_v shall_v bear_v the_o punishment_n of_o his_o

that_o they_o discharge_v not_o their_o dewtie_n except_o they_o maintain_v a_o other_o man_n wickedness_n oh_o say_v they_o he_o that_o have_v do_v this_o offence_n be_v my_o neighbour_n or_o my_o
