though_o with_o a_o chain_n he_o make_v he_o tremble_v and_o here_o in_o the_o first_o verse_n he_o come_v as_o a_o prisoner_n for_o their_o sake_n to_o beseech_v they_o peace_n and_o a_o further_a and_o special_a emphasis_n he_o come_v to_o persuade_v they_o to_o that_o which_o be_v most_o please_a namely_o to_o unity_n to_o which_o purpose_n he_o use_v four_o several_a argument_n first_o there_o be_v a_o common_a engagement_n of_o all_o saint_n to_o unity_n i_o beseech_v you_o walk_v worthy_a of_o your_o vocation_n whereu_o to_o you_o be_v call_v with_o all_o louliness_n and_o meekness_n forbear_v one_o another_o in_o love_n there_o be_v one_o body_n one_o spirit_n even_o as_o you_o be_v all_o call_v in_o one_o hope_n of_o your_o call_n one_o lord_n one_o faith_n one_o baptism_n one_o god_n and_o father_n of_o all_o who_o be_v above_o all_o and_o through_o all_o and_o in_o you_o all_o here_o be_v a_o whole_a bundle_n of_o argument_n in_o this_o first_o consider_v your_o vocation_n those_o privilege_n to_o which_o you_o be_v advance_v thereby_o and_o they_o leave_v a_o very_a great_a obligation_n upon_o you_o as_o saint_n to_o study_v unity_n second_o there_o be_v a_o argument_n from_o the_o equity_n of_o the_o thing_n in_o the_o 7._o verse_n 7._o unto_o every_o one_o of_o we_o be_v give_v grace_n according_a to_o the_o measure_n of_o the_o gift_n of_o christ_n unto_o every_o one_o of_o we_o every_o one_o have_v some_o gift_n as_o it_o please_v jesus_n christ_n to_o proportion_n out_o such_o a_o measure_n to_o this_o saint_n and_o such_o a_o measure_n to_o that_o saint_n the_o little_a finger_n in_o the_o mystical_a body_n so_o much_o as_o be_v fit_a for_o he_o in_o the_o hand_n so_o much_o as_o be_v fit_a for_o he_o and_o this_o with_o a_o common_a respect_n that_o there_o may_v be_v a_o mutual_a use_n of_o all_o those_o with_o subserviency_n to_o the_o whole_a in_o reference_n to_o the_o mystical_a body_n of_o christ_n there_o be_v a_o equity_n in_o it_o three_o there_o be_v a_o very_a great_a congruity_n and_o that_o argument_n you_o shall_v find_v in_o the_o 8_o 9_o and_o 11_o verse_n 12._o jesus_n christ_n when_o he_o do_v ascend_v he_o give_v gift_n to_o man_n all_o the_o gift_n that_o be_v in_o the_o church_n and_o grace_n they_o be_v derive_v from_o the_o same_o efficient_a cause_n and_o therefore_o it_o be_v most_o incongruous_a that_o they_o shall_v be_v distract_v and_o divide_v so_o as_o to_o reflect_v dishonourable_o upon_o he_o that_o be_v the_o sole_a efficient_a cause_n of_o they_o and_o that_o with_o common_a intent_n and_o purpose_n for_o good_a of_o the_o mystical_a body_n but_o then_o fourthly_a and_o last_o you_o have_v here_o another_o argument_n from_o the_o necessity_n of_o it_o 14._o till_o we_o all_o come_v to_o the_o unity_n of_o faith_n and_o that_o we_o be_v no_o more_o toss_v to_o and_o fro_o as_o child_n and_o carry_v up_o and_o down_o with_o every_o wind_n of_o doctrine_n but_o that_o we_o speak_v the_o truth_n in_o love_n and_o so_o grow_v up_o into_o jesus_n christ_n in_o all_o thing_n who_o be_v the_o head_n here_o be_v the_o necessity_n of_o it_o you_o will_v never_o grow_v up_o to_o intimate_a communion_n and_o fellowship_n with_o jesus_n christ_n you_o will_v never_o make_v a_o wise_a improvement_n of_o he_o as_o member_n of_o the_o mystical_a body_n unless_o you_o learn_v this_o heavenly_a skill_n namely_o how_o to_o advance_v unity_n and_o so_o i_o come_v to_o show_v you_o what_o proposition_n this_o last_o argument_n draw_v from_o the_o necessity_n of_o the_o thing_n will_v afford_v we_o in_o the_o 15._o verse_n 15._o which_o by_o god_n assistance_n according_a as_o the_o weak_a measure_n of_o strength_n i_o have_v will_v bear_v i_o shall_v insist_v upon_o at_o this_o time_n but_o speak_v or_o follow_v the_o truth_n in_o love_n grow_v up_o into_o christ_n in_o all_o thing_n which_o be_v the_o head_n where_o first_o its_o clear_a

and_o we_o with_o he_o be_v then_o cast_v into_o a_o desperate_a condition_n unless_o god_n will_v be_v please_v to_o find_v out_o a_o second_o head_n and_o to_o that_o purpose_n out_o of_o the_o
