there_o be_v many_o reason_n that_o may_v be_v give_v for_o this_o i_o shall_v give_v you_o a_o few_o of_o they_o 1._o god_n suffer_v his_o child_n to_o be_v afflict_v that_o he_o may_v wean_v they_o from_o the_o love_n of_o this_o world_n which_o we_o be_v natural_o prone_a to_o dote_v upon_o but_o especial_o in_o a_o prosperous_a state_n then_o we_o be_v apt_a and_o ready_a to_o be_v forgetful_a of_o god_n and_o of_o ourselves_o too_o than_o the_o weed_n be_v ready_a to_o overgrow_v the_o corn_n and_o the_o flesh_n ready_a to_o domineer_v over_o the_o spirit_n but_o by_o affliction_n we_o be_v bring_v to_o hate_v that_o which_o before_o we_o love_v and_o to_o embrace_v that_o which_o before_o we_o loathe_v in_o time_n of_o prosperity_n we_o be_v apt_a to_o pride_n ourselves_o in_o our_o worldly_a enjoyment_n in_o our_o good_n and_o possession_n and_o to_o have_v high_a and_o lofty_a thought_n of_o ourselves_o as_o nabuchadnezzar_n dan._n 4.30_o be_v not_o this_o great_a

to_o task_n make_v of_o he_o to_o live_v with_o the_o beast_n of_o the_o field_n and_o to_o eat_v grass_n like_o ox_n than_o he_o be_v bring_v to_o acknowledge_v one_o above_o he_o 4.37_o dan._n 4.37_o to_o acknowledge_v that_o he_o be_v able_a to_o abase_v all_o those_o that_o walk_v in_o pride_n by_o deal_v thus_o with_o we_o he_o bring_v we_o experimental_o to_o know_v that_o the_o world_n and_o the_o thing_n thereof_o be_v vanity_n and_o that_o they_o be_v at_o his_o disposal_n to_o give_v and_o take_v away_o at_o his_o pleasure_n thus_o therefore_o do_v god_n suffer_v his_o child_n to_o be_v afflict_v that_o he_o may_v withdraw_v their_o affection_n from_o the_o fade_a vanity_n of_o the_o world_n 2_o to_o draw_v we_o to_o amendment_n of_o life_n 119.67_o psal_n 119.67_o before_o

therein_o then_o god_n out_o of_o love_n strike_v we_o with_o the_o rod_n of_o affliction_n to_o cause_v we_o to_o remember_v our_o sin_n and_o to_o repent_v of_o they_o the_o affliction_n of_o the_o
