most_o part_n be_v no_o more_o serviceable_a unto_o god_n nor_o long_a friendly_a unto_o man_n than_o god_n condition_n upon_o the_o earth_n be_v fortunate_a and_o quiet_a with_o the_o world_n

most_o for_o do_v know_v neither_o god_n nor_o his_o word_n but_o have_v rather_o hear_v ten_o time_n speak_v of_o the_o false_a tradition_n that_o ever_o man_n bring_v into_o the_o church_n than_o once_o of_o christ_n most_o holy_a gospel_n so_o that_o now_o man_n nature_n for_o adversity_n sake_n be_v clean_o turn_v from_o god_n how_o long_o the_o love_n of_o man_n continue_v towards_o man_n daily_a experience_n show_v within_o one_o month_n man_n if_o a_o man_n fall_v into_o trouble_n for_o the_o most_o just_a cause_n he_o that_o be_v his_o friend_n will_v not_o only_o alter_v his_o

he_o shall_v find_v neither_o word_n nor_o work_n except_o word_n and_o work_n of_o displeasure_n in_o prosperity_n fair_a look_n and_o amiable_a countenance_n be_v as_o common_a as_o the_o cart_n

from_o the_o poor_a afflict_a but_o hear_v they_o and_o grant_v they_o their_o godly_a and_o honest_a request_n as_o here_o this_o prophet_n most_o godly_a &_o comfortable_o write_v of_o thou_o for_o he_o say_v consolation_n the_o lord_n shall_v hearken_v unto_o i_o when_o i_o seek_v he_o in_o the_o time_n of_o my_o trouble_n and_o also_o the_o lord_n abhor_v not_o to_o be_v present_a with_o the_o

this_o doctrine_n we_o learn_v two_o thing_n sin_n the_o one_o that_o god_n hate_v not_o the_o trouble_a man_n for_o his_o trouble_n but_o for_o his_o sin_n man_n do_v clean_o contrary_a for_o the_o most_o part_n for_o they_o hate_v the_o man_n for_o trouble_v and_o not_o for_o sin_n for_o let_v the_o wicked_a man_n alive_a have_v prosperity_n and_o all_o wicked_a man_n will_v love_v he_o for_o his_o prosperity_n sake_n god_n turn_v not_o his_o favour_n from_o man_n for_o trouble_n but_o for_o sin_n the_o world_n for_o trouble_n sake_n will_v not_o know_v the_o most_o dear_a and_o honest_a friend_n but_o let_v the_o most_o wicked_a that_o live_v by_o breath_n have_v prosperity_n and_o wicked_a people_n will_v not_o fail_v to_o know_v he_o with_o beck_n and_o du-gard_n if_o he_o come_v into_o company_n yea_o rather_o than_o fail_v the_o most_o wicked_a man_n alive_a shall_v be_v narrow_o seek_v out_o that_o wicked_a man_n may_v have_v acquaintance_n of_o he_o but_o he_o that_o have_v god_n to_o his_o friend_n be_v sure_a of_o a_o saviour_n as_o well_o in_o adversity_n as_o in_o prosperity_n as_o the_o prophet_n here_o declare_v which_o can_v in_o trouble_n send_v ease_n and_o in_o quietness_n continue_v joy_n for_o ever_o to_o he_o therefore_o be_v all_o laud_n and_o praise_v world_n without_o end_n amen_n the_o four_o thing_n to_o be_v note_v in_o this_o second_o part_n prayer_n be_v the_o continuance_n of_o the_o faithful_a afflict_a in_o prayer_n unto_o god_n for_o the_o prophet_n say_v that_o he_o lift_v up_o his_o hand_n all_o night_n and_o wax_v not_o weary_a of_o this_o continuance_n in_o prayer_n we_o learn_v two_o thing_n the_o one_o perseverance_n in_o prayer_n and_o the_o other_o patient_a expectation_n and_o willing_a sufferance_n until_o god_n send_v redress_n and_o ease_n to_o the_o first_o the_o scripture_n exhort_v we_o that_o we_o pray_v both_o hearty_o and_o continual_o unto_o god_n not_o because_o he_o be_v ignorant_a of_o our_o trouble_n but_o because_o we_o shall_v thorough_o be_v bring_v to_o understand_v that_o there_o be_v none_o can_v help_v we_o out_o of_o trouble_n but_o he_o and_o also_o that_o by_o continuance_n in_o prayer_n we_o may_v the_o better_o know_v and_o more_o earnest_o repent_v our_o sin_n that_o be_v the_o cause_n of_o our_o trouble_n three_o that_o by_o often_o remembrance_n and_o diverse_a rehearsal_n of_o our_o iniquity_n unto_o god_n we_o may_v the_o soon_o bring_v both_o our_o soul_n and_o body_n into_o the_o service_n and_o homage_n of_o almighty_a god_n who_o we_o have_v by_o sin_n most_o gréevous_o displease_v the_o second_o virtue_n patient_a expectation_n in_o trouble_n expectation_n declare_v that_o we_o be_v much_o bind_v unto_o god_n that_o chasten_v we_o in_o this_o life_n and_o defer_v not_o our_o punishment_n to_o the_o eternal_a pain_n in_o the_o world_n to_o come_v also_o it_o make_v the_o mind_n of_o man_n to_o understand_v the_o wisdom_n of_o god_n and_o also_o the_o foolishness_n of_o man_n that_o many_o time_n for_o lack_n of_o patient_a expectation_n and_o thankful_a sufferance_n wax_v weary_a of_o his_o cross_n and_o punishment_n and_o also_o murmure_v against_o god_n because_o he_o help_v not_o when_o man_n wisdom_n judge_v most_o meet_a to_o be_v holpen_v but_o patient_a expectation_n prescribe_v god_n no_o time_n when_o to_o help_v nor_o yet_o mean_n how_o to_o help_v but_o say_v 8_o thy_o will_v be_v do_v in_o earth_n as_o it_o be_v in_o heaven_n
