man_n oftentimes_o to_o pitiful_a calamity_n 19_o hereupon_o say_v solomon_n a_o labour_a man_n that_o be_v give_v to_o drink_v shall_v never_o be_v rich_fw-fr and_o for_o this_o cause_n he_o will_v we_o not_o to_o company_n with_o they_o for_o if_o we_o do_v we_o shall_v go_v with_o patch_a and_o ragged_a coat_n and_o true_o we_o see_v this_o confirm_v daily_o by_o many_o example_n these_o man_n be_v no_o great_a purchacer_n of_o land_n nor_o man_n of_o great_a revenue_n and_o many_o which_o have_v be_v leave_v very_o wealthy_a by_o their_o father_n will_n have_v consume_v all_o that_o have_v be_v leave_v they_o and_o die_v very_a beggar_n for_o they_o spend_v much_o abroad_o with_o shame_n upon_o their_o own_o belly_n which_o they_o may_v spare_v by_o vary_v at_o home_n with_o honesty_n many_o there_o be_v that_o seek_v to_o spoil_v &_o rob_v their_o enemy_n and_o some_o there_o be_v that_o will_v steal_v from_o their_o friend_n but_o drunkard_n rob_v their_o own_o wife_n and_o

but_o their_o own_o but_o to_o they_o that_o use_v such_o speech_n i_o make_v this_o answer_n that_o their_o money_n be_v not_o their_o own_o but_o as_o the_o prophet_n say_v it_o be_v the_o lord_n thou_o be_v but_o 2._o his_o steward_n and_o he_o have_v lend_v thou_o wealth_n and_o riches_n not_o to_o misspend_v one_o farthing_n or_o mite_n unthrifty_o and_o upon_o thing_n not_o necessary_a god_n have_v make_v the_o earth_n to_o bring_v forth_o fruit_n and_o have_v make_v man_n lord_n and_o king_n of_o all_o his_o creature_n but_o yet_o to_o use_v they_o not_o to_o abuse_v they_o if_o god_n have_v give_v we_o riches_n and_o send_v we_o wealth_n he_o have_v not_o give_v it_o we_o to_o spend_v all_o upon_o our_o own_o carcase_n but_o to_o help_v our_o wife_n and_o childrne_v withal_o to_o relieve_v the_o want_n of_o the_o poor_a to_o bestow_v some_o part_n of_o it_o upon_o they_o which_o cry_v at_o our_o gate_n for_o relief_n and_o comfort_n and_o therefore_o if_o thou_o play_v the_o drunkard_n bestow_v all_o upon_o thyself_o thou_o play_v the_o part_n of_o a_o strong_a thief_n and_o rob_v thy_o wife_n thy_o childrne_n &_o the_o poor_a needy_a neighbour_n of_o that_o which_o they_o ought_v to_o have_v to_o comfort_v they_o withal_o we_o must_v consider_v also_o that_o god_o have_v in_o his_o word_n set_v down_o how_o man_n shall_v use_v their_o riches_n to_o who_o one_o day_n we_o must_v give_v account_n for_o to_o every_o one_o of_o we_o it_o shall_v be_v 16._o say_v give_v account_n of_o thy_o stewardship_n if_o you_o send_v your_o servant_n to_o the_o market_n you_o will_v have_v he_o to_o bestow_v your_o money_n in_o such_o sort_n as_o you_o do_v command_v he_o and_o not_o at_o his_o own_o pleasure_n so_o god_o have_v give_v to_o man_n money_n and_o wealth_n but_o yet_o therewithal_o he_o have_v give_v we_o a_o rule_n how_o to_o bestow_v it_o the_o evil_a steward_n because_o he_o have_v 16._o waste_v his_o master_n good_n be_v thrust_v out_o of_o his_o stewardship_n so_o all_o they_o which_o have_v spend_v their_o good_n unthrifty_o at_o the_o alehouse_n except_o they_o repent_v shall_v be_v exclude_v out_o of_o the_o kingdom_n of_o heaven_n

to_o misspend_v it_o in_o riot_n and_o wantonness_n neither_o be_v it_o lawful_a to_o eat_v and_o drink_v to_o much_o but_o so_o much_o as_o be_v meet_v and_o convenient_a for_o we_o true_a it_o be_v you_o god_o be_v not_o offend_v with_o eat_v and_o drink_v but_o he_o be_v offend_v with_o we_o when_o as_o we_o abuse_v eat_v and_o drink_v and_o when_o as_o we_o devours_n his_o benefit_n without_o

will_v you_o never_o have_v we_o to_o make_v good_a cheer_n and_o to_o be_v merry_a one_o neighbour_n with_o a_o other_o be_v god_n offend_v think_v you_o that_o we_o shall_v use_v any_o mirth_n and_o
