of_o a_o christian_a shall_v look_v otherwise_o upon_o these_o time_n the_o spirit_n of_o god_n in_o scripture_n measure_v the_o goodness_n and_o badness_n of_o time_n by_o the_o bind_v and_o loose_v of_o satan_n in_o revel._n 20._o v._n 2._o there_o we_o read_v of_o the_o bind_n of_o satan_n for_o a_o thousand_o year_n that_o he_o shall_v not_o deceive_v the_o nation_n there_o be_v the_o prosperous_a state_n and_o condition_n of_o the_o church_n a_o good_a time_n in_o the_o seven_o verse_n of_o that_o chapter_n we_o read_v of_o the_o lose_n of_o satan_n when_o the_o thousand_o year_n shall_v be_v expire_v satan_n shall_v be_v loose_v out_o of_o his_o prison_n and_o shall_v go_v out_o to_o deceive_v the_o nation_n there_o be_v sad_a time_n for_o the_o church_n evil_a time_n and_o

forth_o not_o from_o black_a profane_a unhallowed_a mouth_n from_o which_o little_a other_o language_n can_v be_v expect_v but_o from_o the_o mouth_n of_o those_o who_o style_v themselves_o saint_n such_o as_o say_v they_o be_v jew_n pretend_v to_o a_o high_a profession_n and_o extraordinary_a power_n of_o piety_n now_o sure_o this_o be_v no_o small_a aggravation_n of_o their_o sin_n and_o so_o shall_v be_v of_o our_o sorrow_n the_o jew_n have_v a_o canon_n as_o ainsworth_n report_v it_o out_o of_o their_o maymonie_n that_o whosoever_o hear_v blasphemy_n of_o the_o name_n whether_o he_o

not_o bind_v to_o rend_v his_o clothes_n and_o eliakim_n and_o shebna_n have_v not_o rend_v their_o clothes_n say_v they_o but_o that_o rabshake_v be_v a_o apostate_n from_o the_o faith_n sure_o no_o
