can_v not_o shift_v themselves_o out_o of_o his_o hand_n in_o say_v that_o he_o do_v they_o wrong_n that_o he_o be_v over_o cruel_a towards_o they_o it_o behove_v that_o every_o mouth_n be_v stop_v in_o that_o behalf_n true_a it_o be_v that_o a_o man_n can_v never_o satisfy_v and_o content_v the_o rebellion_n as_o we_o see_v there_o be_v many_o which_o advance_v themselves_o against_o god_n in_o this_o case_n with_o such_o boldness_n and_o presumption_n that_o good_a man_n which_o be_v sober_a and_o modest_a be_v ashamed_a to_o behold_v they_o but_o leave_v we_o these_o dog_n to_o bark_v their_o fill_n and_o in_o the_o mean_a time_n let_v we_o glorify_v our_o god_n in_o all_o humility_n know_v at_o least_o wise_a this_o one_o thing_n that_o he_o have_v this_o authority_n and_o might_n to_o show_v favour_n and_o mercy_n to_o who_o it_o please_v he_o and_o for_o this_o cause_n we_o must_v conclude_v that_o if_o god_n withdraw_v his_o spirit_n from_o the_o posterity_n of_o the_o wicked_a he_o may_v not_o be_v accuse_v of_o cruelty_n for_o they_o be_v in_o themselves_o punishable_a when_o they_o be_v in_o this_o sort_n forsake_v of_o he_o and_o be_v not_o govern_v by_o his_o holy_a spirit_n let_v we_o then_o note_v well_o that_o this_o sentence_n have_v no_o contrariety_n to_o that_o of_o ezechiel_n now_o let_v we_o return_v to_o see_v the_o meaning_n of_o moses_n in_o these_o word_n there_o be_v no_o doubt_n but_o by_o his_o manner_n of_o speak_v in_o this_o place_n he_o will_v imprint_v a_o great_a fear_n in_o we_o than_o if_o bare_o and_o simple_o he_o have_v say_v god_n will_v punish_v you_o when_o you_o shall_v have_v corrupt_v his_o service_n when_o you_o shall_v have_v change_v any_o thing_n in_o religion_n when_o you_o shall_v have_v devise_v and_o fashion_v any_o image_n or_o likeness_n of_o he_o think_v not_o that_o you_o shall_v escape_v his_o vengeance_n for_o he_o will_v not_o suffer_v that_o his_o honour_n be_v deface_v and_o bring_v to_o nothing_o in_o such_o sort_n if_o moses_n have_v thus_o speak_v man_n as_o overhardy_v and_o flow_v of_o nature_n will_v not_o have_v be_v sufficient_o move_v with_o fear_n therefore_o he_o here_o pass_v further_a god_n say_v he_o will_v not_o only_o punish_v you_o in_o your_o own_o person_n but_o he_o will_v extend_v his_o vengeance_n upon_o your_o offspring_n and_o not_o only_o on_o your_o child_n but_o he_o will_v pursue_v it_o even_o to_o the_o further_a end_n of_o your_o lineage_n in_o such_o sort_n that_o you_o shall_v for_o ever_o feel_v his_o wrath_n as_o a_o kindle_a fire_n and_o after_o your_o death_n man_n shall_v behold_v the_o sign_n and_o mark_n of_o your_o iniquity_n god_o shall_v place_v you_o in_o such_o ignominy_n and_o reproach_n that_o you_o shall_v be_v as_o spectacle_n to_o the_o world_n and_o although_o you_o be_v rot_v &_o putrify_v under_o the_o earth_n yet_o shall_v his_o vengeance_n pursue_v you_o so_o that_o your_o sin_n shall_v be_v grate_v on_o and_o call_v to_o remembrance_n from_o age_n to_o age_n and_o man_n shall_v know_v that_o you_o have_v rebel_v against_o he_o which_o show_v you_o so_o many_o of_o his_o benefit_n that_o at_o least_o you_o shall_v have_v be_v as_o the_o sheep_n of_o his_o flock_n to_o be_v govern_v by_o he_o and_o his_o word_n now_o then_o let_v we_o take_v heed_n we_o be_v not_o over_o sluggish_a and_o past_a sense_n when_o god_n in_o this_o manner_n stir_v up_o and_o awake_v we_o true_o if_o only_a in_o one_o word_n or_o by_o some_o exterior_a signification_n he_o shall_v signify_v his_o anger_n we_o ought_v to_o be_v touch_v with_o great_a fear_n but_o since_o we_o be_v dull_a upon_o the_o spur_n yet_o at_o least_o then_o when_o god_n declare_v that_o after_o he_o have_v punish_v we_o he_o will_v yet_o follow_v on_o his_o vengeance_n upon_o our_o posterity_n and_o that_o after_o our_o death_n it_o must_v needs_o be_v that_o those_o which_o shall_v be_v beget_v of_o we_o be_v condemn_v when_o i_o say_v god_n speak_v in_o this_o wise_a let_v we_o then_o be_v more_o attentive_a to_o walk_v in_o his_o fear_n and_o to_o turn_v ourselves_o unto_o he_o that_o we_o provoke_v he_o not_o to_o anger_v be_v as_o it_o be_v so_o fearful_a and_o terrible_a thus_o we_o see_v in_o what_o sort_n we_o be_v to_o make_v our_o profit_n by_o this_o text_n now_o he_o add_v further_a of_o they_o which_o hate_v he_o in_o which_o word_n he_o comprehend_v all_o the_o transgressor_n of_o the_o law_n if_o then_o one_o demand_n whether_o all_o those_o which_o turn_v themselves_o from_o the_o obedience_n of_o god_n hate_v he_o therefore_o this_o place_n here_o answer_v yea_o not_o that_o it_o seem_v so_o they_o and_o yet_o the_o truth_n be_v so_o and_o we_o ought_v here_o not_o to_o rest_v upon_o our_o own_o judgement_n for_o god_n only_o be_v a_o competent_a judge_n to_o pronounce_v sentence_n herein_o and_o because_o that_o man_n when_o they_o geve_v themselves_o over_o to_o work_v wicked_o will_v not_o say_v neither_o think_v so_o in_o heart_n that_o they_o hate_v god_n it_o behove_v that_o this_o vice_n shall_v be_v discover_v it_o be_v true_a that_o hypocrite_n will_v make_v a_o fair_a show_n that_o the_o love_n of_o god_n cause_v they_o to_o show_v some_o good_a countenance_n and_o in_o deed_n it_o may_v have_v some_o small_a seed_n but_o it_o be_v a_o bastard_n &_o vicious_a seed_n so_o then_o this_o hatred_n be_v not_o apparent_a in_o hypocrite_n nether_a in_o many_o other_o which_o lead_v a_o disorder_a &_o dissolute_a life_n but_o yet_o be_v it_o in_o they_o though_o we_o know_v it_o not_o for_o as_o all_o male_a factor_n &_o licentious_a liver_n will_v there_o be_v neither_o judge_n nor_o order_n nor_o policy_n in_o the_o world_n so_o all_o they_o which_o willing_o &_o of_o their_o own_o accord_n will_v not_o acknowledge_v themselves_o god_n subject_n they_o spite_n he_o &_o can_v be_v content_v he_o be_v pluck_v out_o of_o heaven_n this_o appear_v sufficent_o in_o they_o which_o be_v whole_o give_v over_o &_o pervert_v when_o man_n have_v loose_v the_o bridle_n to_o all_o iniquity_n they_o can_v not_o bear_v any_o correction_n &_o be_v so_o far_o from_o be_v tractable_a to_o be_v teach_v when_o they_o be_v threaten_v they_o grind_v the_o tooth_n they_o storm_v &_o rage_n they_o be_v furious_a &_o mad_a against_o god_n this_o hate_v then_o of_o god_n be_v manifest_a enough_o in_o they_o which_o have_v grant_v themselves_o a_o more_o outrageous_a liberty_n of_o do_v ill_a in_o they_o which_o be_v carry_v away_o as_o with_o a_o

of_o his_o judgement_n this_o appear_v not_o &_o yet_o there_o be_v already_o in_o they_o a_o hatred_n of_o god_n true_o they_o think_v it_o not_o but_o god_n see_v much_o more_o clear_a than_o we_o and_o when_o thing_n be_v hide_v and_o unknown_a unto_o we_o he_o note_v they_o we_o must_v always_o bear_v in_o mind_n how_o saint_n john_n say_v that_o god_n be_v much_o great_a than_o our_o conscience_n that_o be_v to_o say_v 20._o that_o if_o our_o conscience_n bear_v we_o witness_v of_o our_o fault_n god_n shall_v not_o sleep_v in_o the_o mean_a time_n and_o so_o let_v we_o brief_o remember_v that_o all_o they_o which_o conform_v not_o themselves_o to_o the_o obedience_n of_o god_n &_o which_o humble_v not_o themselves_o under_o his_o majesty_n to_o serve_v &_o honour_v he_o that_o all_o they_o hate_v he_o although_o by_o effect_n they_o show_v it_o not_o at_o first_o and_o that_o man_n can_v not_o judge_v so_o of_o they_o and_o for_o the_o same_o cause_n we_o see_v why_o in_o like_a manner_n when_o god_n speak_v of_o they_o which_o keep_v his_o commandment_n he_o begin_v with_o his_o love_n he_o say_v that_o he_o will_v show_v mercy_n on_o thousand_o generation_n to_o they_o which_o love_v he_o and_o why_o for_o it_o be_v not_o possible_a to_o desire_v to_o honour_n god_n &_o to_o be_v his_o subject_n if_o we_o have_v not_o a_o feel_n of_o this_o love_n whereof_o he_o here_o speak_v and_o this_o may_v serve_v we_o for_o a_o good_a lesson_n as_o we_o shall_v see_v hereafter_o that_o moses_n when_o he_o will_v geve_v a_o short_a abridgement_n of_o the_o law_n say_v what_o do_v the_o lord_n thy_o god_n israel_n require_v of_o thou_o but_o that_o thou_o love_v he_o with_o thy_o whole_a heart_n 1●_o &_o that_o thou_o cleave_v to_o he_o we_o shall_v never_o i_o say_v know_v what_o it_o be_v to_o yield_v obedience_n to_o god_n law_n and_o to_o rule_v ourselves_o according_a

after_o so_o gentle_a a_o manner_n that_o his_o majesty_n may_v be_v know_v unto_o we_o in_o most_o love_a and_o amiable_a wise_a for_o if_o god_o shall_v speak_v only_o of_o his_o eternity_n and_o sovereign_a be_v we_o shall_v be_v all_o confound_v of_o a_o truth_n this_o may_v suffice_v to_o condemn_v all_o our_o dotage_n yet_o we_o in_o the_o mean_a time_n can_v not_o be_v fit_o hereby_o instruct_v to_o our_o use_n and_o profit_n it_o behove_v then_o that_o after_o it_o have_v be_v declare_v that_o it_o be_v he_o alone_o who_o we_o ought_v to_o reverence_n and_o to_o who_o we_o must_v do_v homage_n that_o he_o come_v unto_o we_o all_o after_o a_o gentle_a and_o familiar_a manner_n that_o we_o may_v perceive_v he_o to_o be_v our_o father_n and_o master_n &_o that_o we_o may_v know_v that_o he_o will_v ally_v himself_o and_o make_v a_o covenant_n with_o we_o to_o the_o end_n we_o shall_v cleave_v unto_o he_o this_o be_v mean_v by_o the_o title_n which_o he_o give_v himself_o in_o this_o place_n say_v i_o be_o not_o only_a thy_o everliving_a which_o come_v here_o to_o fright_n thou_o but_o i_o be_o withal_o thy_o god_n i_o have_v choose_v thou_o to_o myself_o i_o will_v that_o thou_o be_v my_o heritage_n so_o then_o we_o now_o see_v how_o god_o authorize_v his_o law_n to_o the_o end_n we_o shall_v receive_v it_o in_o all_o fear_n and_o humility_n and_o how_o withal_o he_o sweeten_v it_o with_o his_o love_n to_o the_o end_n we_o shall_v take_v a_o taste_n of_o it_o and_o with_o a_o delight_n &_o pleasure_n submit_v ourselves_o unto_o it_o not_o refuse_v to_o be_v govern_v by_o the_o doctrine_n therein_o contain_v and_o let_v we_o know_v that_o we_o can_v have_v no_o excuse_n if_o at_o this_o day_n we_o honour_v not_o our_o god_o in_o truth_n renounce_v all_o our_o superstition_n and_o what_o soever_o be_v contrary_a to_o his_o service_n and_o why_o because_o he_o shall_v win_v we_o to_o himself_o by_o these_o title_n which_o be_v give_v to_o hold_v we_o in_o his_o fear_n when_o he_o speak_v of_o the_o rule_n and_o power_n he_o have_v over_o we_o all_o and_o when_o he_o call_v himself_o our_o god_o this_o aught_o to_o make_v we_o taste_v his_o fatherly_a goodness_n these_o two_o thing_n be_v here_o comprise_v we_o see_v then_o that_o there_o remain_v nothing_o but_o that_o we_o geve_v diligent_a ear_n to_o that_o which_o be_v declare_v unto_o we_o in_o the_o law_n of_o god_n &_o thereon_o whole_o rest_v and_o stay_v ourselves_o and_o for_o this_o cause_n he_o upbraid_v the_o people_n of_o israel_n that_o they_o neither_o fear_v nor_o love_v he_o if_o i_o be_v thy_o god_n and_o master_n where_o be_v then_o my_o fear_n 6._o if_o i_o be_v thy_o father_n where_o be_v my_o love_n say_v he_o by_o his_o prophet_n malachi_n there_o be_v no_o doubt_n but_o the_o prophet_n in_o this_o place_n have_v respect_n unto_o this_o which_o moses_n here_o brief_o touch_v for_o when_o god_o name_v himself_o the_o everliving_a he_o do_v it_o to_o the_o end_n that_o we_o shall_v bear_v he_o due_a reverence_n when_o he_o name_v himself_o the_o god_o of_o his_o people_n it_o be_v to_o win_v they_o by_o love_n and_o gentleness_n and_o to_o show_v that_o after_o he_o have_v elect_v they_o they_o shall_v geve_v themselves_o over_o whole_o into_o his_o hand_n now_o if_o this_o be_v under_o the_o law_n by_o great_a right_n it_o agree_v unto_o we_o for_o although_o god_n in_o the_o person_n of_o his_o only_a some_o will_v as_o it_o be_v be_v much_o abase_v yet_o for_o all_o this_o remain_v he_o always_o in_o his_o glory_n neither_o be_v any_o thing_n diminish_v from_o the_o highness_n of_o that_o majesty_n whereof_o he_o here_o make_v mention_v the_o abasement_n of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n be_v a_o infallible_a testimony_n of_o the_o mercy_n and_o love_n of_o our_o god_n yet_o howsoever_o it_o be_v this_o ought_v not_o to_o occasion_v we_o to_o contemn_v or_o to_o less_o esteem_n his_o majesty_n for_o god_n in_o this_o sort_n have_v stop_v to_o we_o that_o he_o may_v allure_v we_o to_o behold_v with_o less_o fear_v his_o majesty_n and_o learn_v to_o reverence_v he_o in_o such_o sort_n as_o we_o ought_v to_o do_v so_o then_o of_o good_a right_n shall_v he_o reprove_v we_o at_o this_o day_n as_o be_v altogether_o inexcusable_a if_o we_o do_v not_o fear_v and_o love_v he_o for_o he_o show_v himself_o our_o god_o and_o our_o master_n but_o where_o be_v our_o fear_n when_o we_o regard_v not_o that_o he_o command_v we_o when_o we_o have_v harden_v our_o heart_n against_o his_o threaten_n as_o if_o we_o will_v despiteful_o resist_v he_o when_o we_o continue_v in_o our_o wickedness_n and_o although_o he_o have_v say_v he_o will_v be_v our_o judge_n and_o that_o he_o will_v one_o day_n take_v a_o account_n of_o our_o do_n how_o be_v it_o that_o we_o make_v but_o a_o scorn_n and_o mockery_n of_o it_o where_o be_v i_o say_v the_o fear_n which_o we_o owe_v to_o our_o god_o for_o it_o seem_v that_o we_o will_v fear_v a_o mortal_a creature_n more_o than_o the_o live_a god_o which_o have_v all_o preeminence_n and_o superiority_n and_o mastership_n over_o we_o moreover_o it_o be_v not_o enough_o that_o we_o fear_v god_o after_o some_o servile_a manner_n as_o be_v force_v thereunto_o but_o we_o must_v have_v a_o love_n always_o join_v with_o our_o fear_n for_o therefore_o name_v he_o himself_o our_o father_n and_o let_v we_o also_o note_n that_o when_o he_o declare_v he_o self_n the_o god_n of_o israel_n he_o mean_v by_o this_o word_n that_o he_o be_v our_o saviour_n also_o 12._o thou_o be_v our_o god_n say_v the_o prophet_n abacue_n and_o we_o can_v perish_v so_o then_o let_v we_o keep_v in_o mind_n these_o title_n forasmuch_o as_o they_o appertain_v to_o we_o and_o aught_o to_o serve_v this_o day_n for_o our_o instruction_n know_v that_o the_o majesty_n of_o god_n have_v appear_v in_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n now_o let_v we_o mark_v this_o which_o he_o further_o add_v for_o the_o great_a proof_n of_o his_o love_n and_o favour_n i_o have_v bring_v you_o say_v he_o out_o of_o the_o land_n of_o egypte_n it_o be_v true_a that_o god_n here_o especial_o bind_v unto_o himself_o the_o people_n of_o israel_n above_o all_o other_o nation_n to_o which_o end_n he_o express_o set_v down_o the_o redemption_n he_o have_v wrought_v they_o but_o when_o god_n speak_v we_o must_v consider_v of_o all_o the_o benefit_n for_o the_o which_o we_o be_v indebt_v to_o he_o which_o albeit_o they_o be_v in_o number_n infinite_a and_o inestimable_a yet_o we_o ought_v at_o least_o wise_a call_v they_o to_o mind_n so_o far_o as_o our_o small_a ability_n may_v do_v apply_v all_o our_o wit_n &_o sense_n thereto_o &_o perceive_v that_o we_o fail_v and_o be_v behind_o in_o this_o point_n let_v we_o strain_v ourselves_o better_a to_o mind_v they_o at_o least_o so_o far_o as_o to_o be_v thereby_o instruct_v in_o the_o love_n and_o fear_n of_o our_o god_n do_v then_o god_n speak_v we_o must_v first_o consider_v that_o this_o be_v he_o which_o create_v we_o we_o be_v therefore_o he_o this_o one_o benefit_n be_v sufficient_a to_o provoke_v every_o one_o with_o all_o his_o might_n to_o serve_v &_o honour_v god_n for_o what_o sufficient_a recompense_n can_v we_o make_v he_o if_o there_o be_v but_o this_o that_o he_o have_v place_v we_o in_o this_o world_n and_o of_o his_o mercy_n nourish_v we_o here_o but_o yet_o when_o we_o shall_v have_v cast_v our_o eye_n up_o on_o high_a or_o down_o below_o and_o take_v a_o diligent_a view_n of_o all_o the_o token_n he_o show_v we_o of_o his_o love_n see_v that_o he_o have_v create_v the_o world_n for_o our_o sake_n that_o he_o have_v appoint_v all_o thing_n to_o our_o use_n consider_v that_o he_o have_v engrave_v his_o own_o image_n in_o we_o that_o we_o shall_v be_v immortal_a understand_v that_o he_o have_v prepare_v a_o better_a heritage_n for_o we_o than_o this_o brittle_a and_o transitory_a life_n when_o we_o perceive_v all_o these_o thing_n must_v it_o not_o needs_o be_v that_o we_o be_v more_o blockish_a and_o brutish_a than_o beast_n if_o we_o be_v not_o ravish_v with_o a_o fervent_a desire_n to_o worship_v our_o god_n to_o vow_v and_o to_o dedicate_v ourselves_o whole_o unto_o he_o but_o yet_o further_o than_o this_o we_o must_v make_v inquiry_n and_o enter_v into_o account_n as_o well_o of_o the_o benefit_n which_o be_v bestow_v on_o we_o all_o in_o general_a as_o which_o every_o one_o also_o particular_o receive_v and_o then_o behove_v it_o every_o one_o to_o make_v his_o confession_n with_o david_n lord_n when_o i_o think_v on_o thy_o benefit_n

of_o all_o power_n of_o all_o uprightness_n of_o all_o equity_n and_o justice_n now_o then_o let_v we_o conceive_v god_n as_o he_o be_v that_o be_v with_o his_o justice_n and_o uprightness_n &_o

aught_o we_o to_o imagine_v god_n as_o a_o idol_n but_o we_o must_v comprehend_v he_o in_o his_o justice_n it_o than_o we_o shall_v hate_v this_o which_o be_v in_o god_n that_o be_v to_o say_v his_o

show_v himself_o our_o adversary_n party_n withal_o we_o be_v also_o warn_v to_o come_v unto_o god_n with_o a_o pure_a and_o sincere_a affection_n for_o it_o be_v not_o enough_o to_o withhold_v our_o

will_v punish_v they_o that_o hate_v he_o to_o the_o third_o and_o four_o generation_n and_o that_o he_o will_v show_v mercy_n to_o they_o that_o love_v he_o in_o a_o thousand_o generation_n for_o

ever_o you_o see_v then_o the_o true_a nature_n of_o god_n that_o be_v that_o he_o desire_v nothing_o more_o than_o to_o draw_v man_n unto_o he_o by_o all_o lenity_n and_o gentleness_n and_o to_o

mind_n upon_o this_o place_n and_o moreover_o for_o conclusion_n let_v we_o note_v that_o it_o be_v not_o without_o gre●t_a cause_n that_o god_n place_v here_o this_o word_n of_o mercy_n although_o it_o be_v as_o a_o reward_n of_o the_o service_n which_o be_v do_v he_o he_o may_v well_o have_v say_v i_o will_v consider_v the_o service_n of_o they_o which_o shall_v have_v honour_v and_o worship_v i_o which_o shall_v have_v love_v i_o in_o observe_v my_o law_n i_o will_v show_v they_o that_o it_o be_v no_o lose_a labour_n to_o have_v serve_v and_o honour_v i_o as_o they_o shall_v have_v do_v god_n may_v have_v speak_v so_o but_o he_o say_v i_o will_v show_v mercy_n and_o how_o so_o seem_v it_o not_o that_o if_o we_o serve_v god_n as_o he_o have_v appoint_v he_o owe_v we_o a_o recompense_n now_o he_o declare_v that_o he_o will_v bestow_v a_o benefit_n upon_o they_o which_o have_v honour_v he_o and_o observe_v his_o commandment_n and_o that_o this_o be_v not_o by_o any_o obligation_n of_o due_a debt_n or_o because_o of_o their_o merit_n and_o desert_n for_o he_o use_v herein_o mercy_n so_o this_o word_n of_o mercy_n be_v to_o beat_v down_o all_o pride_n of_o man_n in_o such_o sort_n that_o they_o may_v not_o boast_v of_o their_o work_v as_o if_o they_o be_v worthy_a of_o reward_n and_o payment_n but_o rather_o know_v that_o god_n mean_v to_o declare_v by_o this_o that_o when_o we_o serve_v he_o the_o best_a that_o we_o can_v we_o have_v always_o need_v to_o be_v bear_v withal_o of_o he_o and_o that_o he_o pardon_v we_o our_o vice_n and_o our_o infirmity_n thus_o be_v there_o two_o thing_n which_o we_o have_v to_o note_v in_o this_o place_n 11._o the_o one_o be_v that_o although_o we_o shall_v serve_v god_n in_o all_o purity_n if_o he_o recompense_v we_o it_o be_v not_o of_o any_o duty_n he_o owe_v unto_o we_o for_o in_o deed_n from_o whence_o come_v this_o that_o we_o have_v serve_v he_o but_o from_o his_o mere_a and_o only_a grace_n and_o what_o then_o may_v he_o owe_v we_o the_o other_o be_v that_o we_o shall_v be_v all_o find_v guilty_a when_o it_o shall_v please_v he_o to_o examine_v we_o according_a to_o the_o exact_a measure_n of_o his_o justice_n so_o then_o in_o that_o god_n recompense_v we_o when_o we_o have_v serve_v he_o he_o do_v this_o for_o his_o mercy_n and_o goodness_n and_o not_o that_o he_o be_v bind_v unto_o we_o nay_o which_o more_o be_v he_o must_v forgive_v we_o our_o sin_n and_o bear_v with_o we_o even_o in_o that_o which_o we_o do_v well_o know_v we_o therefore_o that_o god_o show_v himself_o gentle_a and_o liberal_a towards_o we_o in_o that_o it_o please_v he_o to_o bear_v with_o our_o infirmity_n make_v we_o to_o taste_v his_o mercy_n where_o he_o may_v of_o right_o make_v we_o feel_v his_o rigour_n for_o let_v
