look_v at_o h●●●●_n and_o mordecai_n haman_n have_v the_o king_n favour_n and_o all_o his_o desire_n grant_v he_o and_o the_o post_n be_v dispatch_v and_o yet_o he_o be_v more_o trouble_v in_o plot_v

away_o from_o all_o those_o secret_a bosom_n distemper_n as_o pride_n and_o such_o like_a which_o breed_v any_o discontentment_n within_o a_o man_n as_o all_o curiosity_n and_o all_o pride_n and_o

quiet_v nay_o it_o can_v be_v for_o spiritual_a thing_n will_v not_o satisfy_v a_o corrupt_a heart_n and_o worldly_a thing_n can_v quiet_v it_o now_o faith_n divorce_v the_o soul_n and_o withdraw_v the_o heart_n from_o under_o the_o power_n of_o those_o boisterous_a distemper_n and_o make_v the_o soul_n resign_v up_o itself_o to_o the_o good_a will_n of_o god_n and_o when_o faith_n have_v do_v

good_a thing_n that_o a_o inordinate_a sinful_a heart_n can_v crave_v faith_n make_v the_o soul_n apprehend_v that_o whatsoever_o god_n do_v and_o whatsoever_o god_n pleasure_n be_v be_v better_a to_o he_o than_o whatsoever_o he_o can_v desire_v though_o god_n deny_v what_o he_o desire_v if_o god_n will_v have_v a_o man_n poor_a faith_n say_v it_o be_v better_a than_o if_o he_o have_v give_v he_o

because_o it_o be_v his_o good_a will_n and_o pleasure_n so_o to_o have_v it_o and_o so_o the_o heart_n be_v quiet_v and_o full_o content_v and_o the_o want_n be_v supply_v because_o the_o will_n of_o god_n be_v better_a than_o to_o have_v what_o we_o desire_v the_o patient_n that_o trust_v to_o the_o skill_n and_o faithfulness_n of_o the_o physician_n be_v better_a content_n to_o take_v pill_n from_o he_o than_o all_o the_o best_a cordial_n that_o can_v be_v desire_v three_o faith_n either_o obtain_v what_o we_o need_v and_o desire_n or_o else_o procure_v a_o far_o better_a thing_n than_o what_o we_o desire_v be_v thou_o in_o trouble_n and_o misery_n faith_n will_v either_o fetch_v from_o god_n what_o thou_o need_v or_o else_o bring_v that_o which_o be_v better_o from_o the_o hand_n of_o god_n by_o this_o mean_v the_o lord_n christ_n cure_v all_o the_o discontentment_n that_o may_v creep_v in_o upon_o the_o heart_n of_o his_o disciple_n matth._n 19.29_o there_o be_v no_o man_n which_o shall_v lose_v father_n or_o mother_n or_o wife_n or_o child_n or_o friend_n for_o my_o name_n sake_n but_o he_o shall_v receive_v a_o hundred_o fold_n and_o shall_v inherit_v eternal_a life_n whatsoever_o we_o lose_v for_o a_o christ_n we_o shall_v have_v a_o hundred_o fold_v recompense_n for_o it_o as_o if_o a_o man_n for_o the_o cause_n of_o christ_n suffer_v persecution_n or_o imprisonment_n and_o lose_v peace_n here_o thou_o thou_o shall_v have_v peace_n with_o god_n and_o thy_o soul_n shall_v prosper_v in_o grace_n and_o if_o friend_n haply_o forsake_v thou_o and_o the_o father_n be_v against_o the_o son_n and_o the_o husband_n be_v set_v against_o the_o wife_n thou_o shall_v have_v the_o favour_n of_o the_o lord_n god_n of_o heaven_n which_o be_v better_o than_o the_o love_n of_o all_o earthly_a husband_n or_o friend_n for_o all_o these_o thing_n here_o below_o be_v but_o as_o it_o be_v the_o shell_n but_o this_o be_v the_o pith_n and_o kernel_n the_o love_n of_o god_n in_o christ_n and_o if_o a_o man_n lose_v liberty_n for_o christ_n he_o shall_v have_v a_o thousand_o time_n more_o liberty_n in_o the_o peace_n of_o a_o good_a conscience_n and_o a_o free_a heart_n to_o serve_v god_n and_o in_o the_o 63._o psalm_n in_o the_o begin_n of_o the_o psalm_n david_n be_v in_o the_o wilderness_n of_o judah_n when_o saul_n have_v banish_v he_o from_o his_o house_n and_o deprive_v he_o of_o friend_n and_o mean_n and_o all_o yet_o see_v how_o david_n supply_v all_o in_o the_o 3._o verse_n because_o thy_o love_a kindness_n be_v better_a than_o life_n my_o lip_n shall_v praise_v thou_o and_o in_o the_o 5._o verse_n he_o say_v my_o soul_n shall_v be_v fill_v as_o with_o ●●●row_n and_o fatness_n now_o marrow_n and_o fatness_n be_v the_o chief_a of_o all_o you_o know_v as_o if_o he_o have_v say_v saul_n have_v take_v away_o my_o mean_n but_o thy_o love_a kindness_n be_v better_a than_o all_o the_o world_n it_o be_v that_o which_o full_o satisfi_v i_o

a_o supply_n of_o all_o good_a to_o the_o soul_n in_o the_o 73._o psalm_n 25._o and_o the_o last_o verse_n compare_v they_o both_o together_o and_o see_v
