of_o the_o gospel_n make_v the_o glorious_a word_n and_o preach_v of_o christ_n to_o be_v blaspheme_v among_o the_o papist_n and_o they_o hinder_v many_o from_o profess_v and_o believe_v the_o same_o because_o they_o walk_v not_o wise_o towards_o they_o that_o be_v without_o because_o there_o be_v as_o much_o whoredom_n covetousness_n drunkenness_n usury_n perjury_n simony_n subtlety_n bribery_n &_o injury_n among_o they_o as_o ever_o be_v among_o the_o papist_n or_o can_v be_v among_o the_o turk_n and_o infidel_n because_o there_o be_v as_o little_a faith_n as_o little_a regard_n of_o promise_n or_o word_n or_o less_o than_o ever_o be_v in_o the_o time_n of_o ignorance_n etc._n etc._n but_o what_o shall_v become_v of_o these_o wicked_a hypocrite_n of_o these_o paint_a wall_n of_o these_o stink_a sepulcher_n and_o fruitless_a figtree_n which_o defame_n their_o calling_n abuse_v their_o place_n pollute_v their_o office_n and_o dishonour_v the_o lord_n by_o their_o sinful_a life_n sure_o they_o shall_v leave_v a_o deadly_a curse_n upon_o their_o posterity_n the_o filthy_a maw_n of_o the_o hungry_a dog_n shall_v be_v think_v to_o be_v a_o sepulchre_n worthy_a and_o sufficient_a for_o such_o curse_a carrion_n the_o lord_n shall_v plague_v they_o by_o take_v from_o they_o their_o son_n beget_v in_o a_o dulterie_n their_o office_n their_o dignity_n and_o the_o thing_n they_o love_v best_a the_o lord_n shall_v punish_v they_o by_o rebellion_n in_o in_o their_o son_n in_o their_o subject_n and_o heavy_a mishap_n within_o their_o own_o house_n some_o of_o these_o wicked_a abuser_n of_o their_o office_n and_o calling_n the_o lord_n do_v notwithstanding_o as_o we_o here_o see_v call_v home_n to_o a_o consideration_n of_o their_o miserable_a estate_n to_o the_o knowledge_n and_o sight_n of_o their_o sin_n to_o a_o true_a humiliation_n of_o their_o proud_a stomach_n and_o to_o a_o effectual_a repentance_n because_o it_o be_v certain_a and_o sure_a that_o the_o wickedness_n of_o man_n can_v alter_v the_o purpose_n of_o the_o lord_n where_o we_o learn_v that_o as_o god_n do_v suffer_v his_o elect_a for_o a_o time_n to_o be_v seduce_v and_o to_o wander_v out_o of_o the_o right_a way_n as_o david_n by_o his_o lust_n paul_n by_o blind_a zeal_n marry_o magdalene_n by_o lewd_a concupiscence_n and_o this_o jailor_n by_o cruelty_n &_o blindness_n yet_o as_o many_o as_o pertain_v to_o god_n election_n have_v the_o time_n and_o mean_n of_o their_o conversion_n appoint_v and_o they_o at_o that_o call_n obey_v as_o we_o see_v here_o this_o jailor_n do_v though_o before_o oftentimes_o they_o have_v refuse_v here_o we_o see_v the_o great_a mercy_n of_o the_o lord_n which_o call_v all_o sort_n of_o man_n which_o despise_v no_o office_n nor_o the_o vile_a calling_n which_o refuse_v not_o to_o think_v upon_o the_o great_a sinner_n in_o the_o midst_n of_o all_o their_o blindness_n but_o use_v love_a and_o fit_a mean_n to_o call_v sinner_n to_o repentance_n as_o according_a to_o the_o quality_n greatness_n and_o continuance_n of_o any_o sin_n so_o we_o see_v his_o motion_n to_o repentance_n fit_v for_o they_o david_n have_v not_o long_o be_v forgetful_a neither_o remain_v any_o great_a time_n in_o the_o sink_n of_o his_o sin_n therefore_o the_o voice_n of_o the_o lord_n in_o a_o simple_a man_n wrought_v a_o sorrow_n and_o repentance_n in_o he_o peter_n have_v not_o long_o continue_v in_o his_o apostasy_n he_o be_v bring_v unto_o that_o forgetfulness_n of_o his_o good_a master_n and_o duty_n by_o the_o frailness_n &_o fear_n that_o be_v in_o his_o flesh_n and_o blood_n and_o not_o by_o any_o malice_n or_o wilful_a contempt_n therefore_o the_o voice_n of_o a_o cock_n be_v sufficient_a to_o awaken_v he_o to_o make_v he_o see_v the_o foulness_n of_o his_o fin_n and_o to_o lament_v his_o weakness_n with_o bitter_a tear_n but_o of_o the_o contrary_a where_o the_o sin_n be_v settle_v of_o a_o long_a continuance_n where_o the_o sinner_n after_o admonition_n have_v take_v delight_n in_o it_o have_v continue_v it_o with_o malice_n and_o wilful_a contempt_n there_o the_o lord_n must_v use_v great_a and_o mighty_a motion_n to_o remove_v they_o as_o earthquake_n throw_v down_o some_o tower_n in_o siloe_n stir_v up_o great_a enemy_n and_o show_v great_a and_o unusual_a wonder_n etc._n etc._n and_o yet_o these_o great_a motion_n move_v not_o all_o for_o there_o be_v some_o which_o pertain_v to_o the_o lord_n inheritance_n that_o be_v convert_v by_o they_o as_o this_o jailor_n and_o many_o
