but_o the_o conscience_n be_v prick_v and_o oppress_v so_o much_o with_o fear_n &_o doubtfulness_n of_o god_n ire_n for_o sin_n that_o he_o think_v god_n can_v be_v merciful_a unto_o other_o but_o not_o unto_o he_o and_o thus_o do_v his_o knowledge_n for_o the_o time_n of_o temptation_n rather_o trouble_v he_o then_o ease_v he_o because_o his_o heart_n do_v not_o or_o rather_o can_v not_o consent_v unto_o the_o knowledge_n yet_o will_v he_o rather_o than_o his_o life_n he_o can_v consent_v unto_o god_n love_n god_n hate_v sin_n &_o be_v god_n altogether_o although_o he_o suffer_v for_o it_o all_o y_z e_z pain_n of_o the_o world_n i_o have_v know_v in_o many_o good_a man_n and_o many_o good_a woman_n this_o trouble_n and_o heaviness_n of_o the_o spirit_n for_o the_o time_n as_o though_o god_n have_v clean_o hide_v himself_o from_o the_o afflict_a person_n and_o have_v clean_o forsake_v he_o yet_o at_o length_n the_o day_n of_o light_n from_o above_o and_o the_o comfort_n of_o the_o holy_a spirit_n have_v appear_v that_o lie_v cover_v under_o the_o veil_n and_o covert_n of_o bitter_a cogitation_n of_o god_n just_a judgement_n against_o sin_n they_o therefore_o see_v that_o faith_n at_o all_o time_n have_v not_o like_a strength_n in_o man_n i_o do_v not_o speak_v to_o discomfort_v such_o as_o at_o all_o time_n find_v not_o their_o faith_n as_o strong_a as_o david_n do_v in_o this_o psalm_n for_o i_o know_v in_o the_o holy_a saint_n themselves_o it_o be_v not_o always_o like_a but_o even_o in_o they_o as_o in_o other_o and_o although_o we_o can_v not_o compare_v with_o they_o in_o all_o thing_n in_o the_o perfection_n of_o their_o faith_n yet_o may_v they_o compare_v themselves_o with_o we_o in_o the_o weakness_n of_o our_o faith_n as_o you_o may_v see_v by_o the_o scripture_n in_o this_o psalm_n and_o in_o many_o other_o you_o shall_v perceive_v that_o david_n by_o the_o constancy_n and_o surety_n he_o feel_v in_o the_o promise_n of_o god_n be_v so_o strong_a so_o joyful_a and_o comfortable_a in_o the_o midst_n of_o all_o danger_n and_o trouble_n of_o death_n that_o he_o do_v not_o only_o contemn_v trouble_n and_o death_n but_o also_o desire_a death_n and_o to_o be_v dissolve_v out_o of_o this_o world_n as_o saint_n paul_n and_o other_o do_v at_o a_o other_o time_n you_o shall_v perceive_v he_o to_o be_v strong_a in_o faith_n but_o not_o so_o joyful_a nor_o yet_o the_o trouble_n so_o easy_a unto_o he_o but_o that_o he_o suffer_v great_a battle_n and_o conflict_n with_o his_o trouble_n and_o of_o the_o cause_n of_o all_o trouble_n sin_n and_o transgression_n of_o god_n law_n 6._o as_o you_o may_v see_v in_o the_o sixth_o psalm_n whereas_o he_o cry_v out_o and_o say_v lord_n chasten_v i_o not_o in_o thy_o fury_n nor_o punish_v i_o in_o thy_o wrath_n my_o soul_n be_v sore_o trouble_v but_o how_o long_a lord_n will_v thou_o defer_v help_n and_o of_o such_o trouble_a conscience_n with_o conflict_n you_o shall_v find_v oftentimes_o in_o the_o book_n of_o psalm_n and_o in_o the_o rest_n of_o god_n scripture_n yet_o shall_v you_o find_v the_o end_n of_o the_o temptation_n to_o be_v joyful_a and_o comfortable_a to_o the_o weak_a man_n that_o be_v so_o sore_o trouble_v for_o although_o god_n suffer_v a_o long_a fight_n between_o his_o poor_a soldier_n and_o the_o devil_n yet_o he_o give_v the_o victory_n to_o his_o servant_n as_o you_o may_v see_v in_o king_n david_n when_o he_o cry_v out_o that_o both_o his_o body_n and_o soul_n be_v weary_v with_o the_o cross_n of_o god_n punishment_n yet_o he_o say_v at_o the_o last_o discedite_fw-la à_fw-la i_o operarij_fw-la iniquitatis_fw-la quoniam_fw-la exaudivit_fw-la dominus_fw-la vocem_fw-la fletus_fw-la mei_fw-la depart_v from_o i_o you_o worker_n of_o iniquity_n 6._o for_o the_o lord_n have_v hear_v the_o voice_n of_o my_o weep_n and_o in_o other_o of_o his_o psalm_n you_o shall_v perceive_v his_o faith_n more_o weak_a and_o his_o soul_n trouble_v with_o such_o anguish_n and_o sorrow_n that_o it_o shall_v seem_v there_o be_v no_o consolation_n in_o his_o soul_n nor_o any_o show_n of_o god_n carefulness_n towards_o he_o in_o this_o state_n you_o may_v see_v he_o in_o the_o 13._o psalm_n where_o as_o a_o man_n in_o manner_n destitute_a of_o all_o consolation_n he_o make_v his_o complaint_n say_v how_o long_o will_v thou_o forget_v i_o the_o same_o may_v you_o read_v also_o in_o the_o 43._o psal._n where_o he_o show_v that_o he_o his_o most_o just_a cause_n and_o the_o doctrine_n that_o he_o profess_v be_v like_o altogether_o to_o have_v be_v overcome_v so_o that_o his_o spirit_n be_v in_o manner_n all_o comfortless_a 43_o then_o he_o say_v to_o his_o own_o soul_n quare_fw-la tristis_fw-la es_fw-la anima_fw-la mea_fw-la &_o quare_fw-la conturbas_fw-la i_o why_o be_v thou_o so_o heavy_a my_o soul_n &_o why_o do_v thou_o trouble_v i_o trust_v in_o the_o lord_n etc._n etc._n and_o in_o the_o 42._o psalm_n he_o set_v forth_o wonderful_o the_o bitter_a fight_n and_o sorrowful_a conflict_n between_o hope_n and_o desperation_n wherein_o he_o complain_v also_o of_o his_o own_o soul_n that_o be_v so_o much_o discomfort_a and_o bid_v it_o trust_v in_o the_o lord_n of_o the_o which_o two_o place_n you_o may_v learn_v that_o no_o man_n have_v ever_o faith_n at_o all_o time_n like_v but_o sometime_o more_o strong_a sometime_o more_o weak_a as_o it_o please_v god_n to_o give_v it_o let_v no_o man_n therefore_o despair_n although_o he_o find_v weakness_n of_o faith_n for_o it_o shall_v make_v he_o to_o humble_v himself_o the_o more_o and_o to_o be_v the_o more_o diligent_a to_o pray_v to_o have_v help_n when_o he_o perceive_v his_o own_o weakness_n and_o doubtless_o at_o length_n the_o weak_a man_n by_o the_o strong_a god_n shall_v be_v bring_v to_o this_o point_n that_o he_o shall_v in_o all_o trouble_n &_o adversity_n say_v with_o the_o prophet_n if_o i_o shall_v go_v through_o the_o shadow_n and_o danger_n of_o

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

speak_v of_o so_o long_o can_v every_o man_n and_o woman_n hear_v of_o affliction_n yea_o and_o commend_v the_o person_n that_o suffer_v affliction_n as_o we_o see_v at_o this_o day_n all_o man_n be_v

but_o when_o the_o same_o or_o like_a shall_v be_v experiment_a and_o practise_v by_o ourselves_o we_o will_v none_o of_o it_o we_o refuse_v it_o and_o we_o abhor_v it_o yea_o so_o much_o that_o where_o christ_n and_o those_o saint_n who_o name_n be_v most_o common_a and_o usual_a in_o our_o mouth_n suffer_v the_o vile_a death_n that_o can_v be_v devise_v we_o will_v not_o suffer_v as_o much_o as_o the_o loss_n of_o a_o friend_n or_o the_o deceivable_a good_n of_o this_o unstable_a and_o transitory_a world_n so_o that_o in_o the_o generality_n we_o be_v very_o godly_a and_o can_v

also_o as_o long_o as_o we_o be_v without_o danger_n for_o christ_n sake_n we_o can_v speak_v of_o great_a danger_n and_o say_v that_o we_o will_v suffer_v all_o extremity_n and_o cruelty_n but_o when_o it_o come_v to_o pass_v that_o a_o enemy_n to_o god_n and_o his_o word_n shall_v say_v in_o deed_n forsake_v thy_o religion_n or_o else_o thou_o shall_v die_v as_o christ_n say_v unto_o peter_n 21._o when_o thou_o be_v old_a a_o other_o shall_v gird_v thou_o and_o lead_v thou_o whether_o thou_o will_v not_o then_o a_o little_a threaten_n of_o a_o other_o man_n stark_o quayl_v this_o man_n that_o say_v he_o will_v suffer_v all_o trouble_n 26._o as_o peter_n say_v if_o he_o shall_v loose_v his_o life_n he_o will_v not_o refuse_v his_o master_n but_o when_o a_o other_o yea_o a_o poor_a

so_o much_o as_o the_o name_n of_o christ_n disciple_n thus_o we_o see_v the_o vileness_n &_o frailty_n of_o our_o own_o nature_n how_o weak_a we_o be_v to_o suffer_v in_o deed_n when_o of_o
