how_o to_o distinguish_v between_o the_o outward_a preach_n which_o be_v do_v by_o the_o mouth_n of_o man_n &_o the_o secret_a call_n of_o god_n whereby_o he_o touch_v the_o heart_n within_o now_o

with_o some_o puff_n we_o be_v not_o move_v and_o trouble_v and_o that_o our_o thought_n do_v not_o wander_v that_o we_o do_v not_o conceive_v many_o thing_n at_o random_n and_o that_o we_o have_v

than_o isaac_n her_o husband_n now_o this_o be_v to_o show_v we_o that_o when_o we_o be_v in_o any_o trouble_n we_o must_v straightway_o have_v our_o recourse_n to_o god_n for_o our_o spirit_n be_v

of_o that_o they_o shall_v build_v upon_o their_o good_a like_n and_o shall_v they_o examine_v all_o after_o their_o own_o fantasy_n and_o opinion_n it_o be_v certain_a that_o such_o presumption_n

how_o come_v it_o to_o pass_v that_o one_o be_v elect_v and_o another_o reject_v how_o be_v it_o that_o the_o great_a number_n go_v to_o destruction_n and_o that_o there_o be_v but_o a_o handful_n of_o people_n which_o god_n reserve_v to_o himself_o when_o we_o shall_v be_v thus_o torment_v let_v we_o have_v recourse_n unto_o god_n that_o be_v to_o say_v let_v we_o hearken_v to_o that_o which_o

let_v we_o remember_v that_o which_o moses_n say_v thou_o shall_v not_o say_v who_o be_v he_o that_o shall_v ascend_v above_o the_o cloud_n who_o be_v he_o
put_v it_o in_o the_o plural_a number_n and_o content_v not_o himself_o to_o say_v loe_o a_o largesse_n but_o he_o say_v behold_v the_o largess_n which_o god_n have_v bestow_v upon_o we_o we_o yet_o see_v more_o plain_o that_o which_o i_o have_v touch_v before_o that_o be_v when_o isaac_n be_v in_o so_o great_a distress_n that_o he_o have_v no_o water_n to_o drink_v that_o man_n be_v so_o cruel_a unto_o he_o that_o he_o can_v not_o drink_v of_o the_o water_n which_o he_o have_v dig_v by_o his_o own_o labour_n and_o by_o the_o hand_n of_o his_o family_n that_o he_o remit_v this_o matter_n to_o god_o who_o be_v the_o just_a judge_n but_o contrariwise_o when_o god_n have_v compassion_n upon_o he_o and_o that_o man_n come_v no_o more_o to_o torment_v he_o and_o that_o he_o have_v water_n to_o drink_v for_o himself_o and_o for_o all_o his_o company_n oh_o well_o say_v he_o this_o be_v god_n that_o have_v bestow_v this_o upon_o i_o he_o say_v not_o o_o in_o the_o end_n yet_o i_o have_v obtain_v my_o purpose_n these_o wicked_a one_o have_v let_v i_o alone_o at_o the_o length_n now_o let_v we_o take_v our_o ease_n he_o speak_v not_o so_o simple_o as_o a_o profane_a man_n will_v have_v do_v but_o he_o will_v have_v a_o memorial_n of_o thank_n give_v unto_o god_n as_o he_o have_v set_v up_o memorial_n of_o his_o complaint_n to_o draw_v the_o lord_n to_o have_v mercy_n upon_o he_o likewise_o his_o mind_n be_v now_o that_o this_o benefit_n of_o god_n shall_v be_v as_o it_o be_v engrave_v there_o and_o that_o man_n shall_v speak_v of_o it_o not_o only_o for_o three_o day_n but_o after_o his_o death_n and_o that_o they_o shall_v acknowledge_v that_o well_o a_o sign_n of_o the_o favour_n that_o god_n have_v show_v he_o and_o let_v we_o note_v this_o circumstance_n for_o he_o cease_v not_o to_o give_v god_o thanks_n with_o a_o quiet_a heart_n though_o he_o have_v be_v a_o long_a time_n afflict_v when_o we_o have_v endure_v long_o the_o like_a trouble_n the_o grace_n of_o god_n be_v wont_a to_o be_v darken_v by_o that_o feel_n of_o our_o evil_n and_o if_o god_o suffer_v we_o to_o languish_v for_o a_o time_n although_o afterward_o he_o reach_v out_o his_o hand_n unto_o we_o yet_o we_o think_v it_o be_v not_o from_o he_o but_o we_o attribute_v this_o to_o fortune_n but_o isaac_n do_v not_o so_o but_o although_o he_o be_v drive_v out_o and_o that_o he_o have_v endure_v this_o for_o a_o long_a time_n yet_o so_o soon_o as_o god_n have_v give_v he_o release_v he_o bless_v his_o name_n and_o say_v god_n have_v enlarge_v i_o loe_o say_v he_o the_o largess_n or_o bounty_n of_o god_n which_o i_o behold_v in_o this_o well_o but_o now_o in_o the_o end_n we_o have_v to_o note_v the_o patience_n of_o isaac_n when_o we_o preach_v now_o a_o day_n of_o patience_n hardly_o can_v we_o get_v this_o point_n that_o if_o we_o have_v to_o endure_v never_o so_o little_a we_o be_v not_o by_o and_o by_o hot_a &_o angry_a and_o when_o it_o seem_v that_o we_o be_v very_o patient_a yet_o there_o will_v always_o be_v some_o grudge_n unless_o god_n even_o at_o the_o first_o push_n comfort_v we_o &_o in_o the_o mean_a season_n what_o suffer_v we_o sure_o in_o a_o manner_n nothing_o if_o we_o endure_v but_o a_o fillip_n o_o it_o be_v so_o hard_a as_o nothing_o can_v be_v hard_o and_o moreover_o if_o man_n go_v on_o to_o do_v we_o wrong_n o_o we_o suffer_v too_o much_o but_o we_o be_v far_o of_o from_o this_o lenity_n and_o softness_n which_o be_v here_o show_v we_o in_o our_o father_n isaac_n we_o will_v say_v i_o can_v bear_v it_o if_o any_o man_n wrong_v we_o but_o the_o value_n of_o three_o halfpenny_n or_o of_o some_o small_a portion_n of_o our_o good_a o_o i_o can_v not_o endure_v it_o this_o be_v too_o much_o yea_o but_o isaac_n strive_v for_o water_n i_o say_v strive_v he_o take_v not_o a_o sword_n to_o fight_v but_o he_o suffer_v wrong_v although_o he_o have_v dig_v the_o well_n and_o his_o father_n have_v purchase_v they_o with_o his_o own_o proper_a good_a and_o that_o the_o king_n have_v make_v he_o a_o grant_n and_o that_o he_o have_v dig_v they_o again_o and_o take_v a_o great_a deal_n of_o travel_n to_o have_v water_n to_o drink_v notwithstanding_o all_o this_o we_o see_v his_o patience_n and_o so_o when_o god_n shall_v afflict_v we_o and_o shall_v loose_v the_o bridle_n to_o the_o wicked_a that_o we_o shall_v be_v peel_v &_o poll_v of_o they_o let_v we_o yet_o know_v that_o we_o be_v not_o come_v to_o that_o extremity_n not_o to_o have_v a_o drop_n of_o water_n and_o to_o have_v those_o element_n take_v from_o we_o which_o god_n will_v have_v common_a amongst_o man_n for_o every_o man_n will_v have_v his_o portion_n apart_o both_o of_o corn_n and_o of_o wine_n of_o flesh_n and_o such_o like_a thing_n and_o of_o movable_a and_o possession_n every_o one_o will_v have_v his_o own_o but_o as_o for_o water_n it_o be_v a_o element_n which_o god_o have_v ordain_v for_o all_o man_n when_o there_o be_v river_n welles_n and_o fountain_n in_o any_o high_a way_n why_o shall_v they_o be_v take_v away_o from_o those_o that_o be_v the_o creature_n of_o god_n but_o howsoever_o it_o be_v yet_o it_o fall_v out_o that_o our_o father_n be_v bring_v to_o such_o extremity_n and_o this_o as_o i_o have_v already_o touch_v serve_v to_o this_o purpose_n that_o we_o shall_v learn_v to_o be_v patient_a not_o only_o to_o suffer_v some_o one_o little_a injury_n or_o two_o or_o three_o but_o that_o in_o all_o respect_n we_o shall_v be_v so_o meek_a and_o soft_a nature_a that_o if_o it_o be_v in_o a_o matter_n of_o life_n and_o death_n as_o they_o say_v we_o put_v our_o hope_n in_o god_n that_o he_o will_v show_v himself_o pitiful_a towards_o we_o and_o therefore_o let_v we_o not_o double_v our_o evil_a let_v we_o not_o make_v of_o one_o devil_n two_o when_o the_o wicked_a and_o ungodly_a persecute_v we_o unjust_o but_o let_v we_o labour_n to_o soften_v their_o heart_n and_o to_o assuage_v the_o malice_n which_o they_o use_v against_o we_o if_o we_o do_v so_o it_o be_v certain_a that_o howsoever_o we_o be_v for_o a_o time_n in_o extreme_a anguish_n yet_o in_o the_o end_n god_n will_v so_o enlarge_v we_o that_o we_o shall_v have_v good_a cause_n to_o bless_v his_o holy_a name_n with_o full_a mouth_n their_o dwell_n they_o must_v be_v flit_a and_o have_v no_o rest_a place_n unless_o they_o be_v

after_o the_o example_n of_o their_o father_n who_o learn_v by_o experience_n not_o too_o have_v their_o inheritance_n here_o beneath_o upon_o earth_n &_o confess_v themselves_o to_o be_v pilgrim_n as_o we_o shall_v see_v hereafter_o that_o jacob_n answer_v pharaoh_n in_o the_o mean_a time_n we_o may_v see_v also_o the_o malice_n of_o all_o those_o near_a neighbour_n thereabouts_o for_o the_o

be_v say_v that_o isaac_n yet_o dig_v a_o well_o there_o for_o he_o can_v not_o be_v without_o water_n both_o for_o the_o family_n he_o have_v which_o be_v great_a as_o for_o his_o cattle_n but_o he_o go_v very_o far_o to_o seek_v water_n until_o god_o restore_v he_o too_o that_o which_o be_v wrongful_o take_v from_o he_o he_o dwell_v therefore_o in_o beer-scheba_a for_o a_o time_n without_o
