christ_n deliver_v we_o from_o sin_n and_o from_o satan_n how_o glorious_a be_v it_o even_o when_o he_o hang_v on_o the_o cross_n he_o do_v on_o that_o cross_n by_o his_o death_n triumph_v over_o the_o devil_n and_o over_o his_o kingdom_n by_o the_o pour_v out_o of_o his_o blood_n he_o do_v work_v a_o glorious_a deliverance_n and_o as_o a_o glorious_a deliverance_n to_o the_o deliverer_n so_o to_o the_o deliver_v of_o slave_n man_n be_v make_v the_o servant_n of_o god_n of_o bond_n man_n adopt_v to_o be_v his_o child_n well_o in_o the_o next_o place_n another_o reason_n may_v be_v take_v from_o the_o great_a punishment_n which_o god_n inflict_v upon_o those_o who_o be_v not_o only_o the_o oppressor_n of_o his_o people_n but_o the_o detainer_n of_o they_o that_o exercise_v violence_n over_o they_o we_o see_v this_o in_o the_o egyptian_n they_o not_o only_o keep_v the_o child_n of_o israel_n in_o bondage_n but_o when_o god_n send_v a_o message_n to_o they_o to_o deliver_v his_o people_n they_o put_v more_o captivity_n upon_o they_o they_o raise_v their_o tale_n of_o brick_n well_o but_o you_o see_v how_o god_n deal_v with_o they_o he_o send_v frog_n to_o cover_v egypt_n and_o they_o come_v into_o the_o king_n chamber_n and_o when_o they_o be_v go_v away_o they_o fill_v the_o land_n with_o stink_n and_o so_o god_n send_v grasshopper_n to_o devour_v their_o fruit_n and_o he_o smite_v their_o firstborn_a and_o yet_o they_o will_v not_o be_v satisfy_v to_o suffer_v the_o people_n to_o depart_v but_o when_o the_o israelite_n be_v go_v they_o repent_v of_o it_o and_o god_n overthrow_v they_o in_o the_o red_a sea_n if_o you_o look_v for_o more_o example_n than_o these_o perhaps_o you_o shall_v find_v they_o near_a hand_n near_a home_n i_o be_o sure_a we_o may_v say_v there_o be_v more_o egypt_n then_o one_o for_o we_o read_v revel._n 11._o that_o the_o two_o witness_n lay_v dead_a in_o the_o city_n which_o be_v spiritual_o call_v egypt_n and_o sodom_n so_o that_o there_o be_v a_o spiritual_a egypt_n as_o well_o as_o a_o natural_a egypt_n now_o perhaps_o we_o may_v find_v this_o very_a egypt_n where_o ever_o we_o find_v the_o oppressor_n of_o god_n people_n where_o god_n witness_n and_o people_n be_v persecute_v or_o hold_v in_o contempt_n certain_o that_o be_v a_o spiritual_a egypt_n and_o belove_a be_v this_o land_n free_a may_v we_o not_o find_v a_o spiritual_a egypt_n among_o we_o frog_n who_o be_v they_o but_o jesuit_n priest_n and_o friar_n these_o spread_v over_o the_o land_n never_o the_o like_a as_o in_o these_o last_o day_n when_o the_o frog_n be_v go_v than_o come_v locust_n and_o grasshopper_n these_o creep_v into_o the_o king_n chamber_n in_o city_n into_o all_o place_n spare_v none_o and_o what_o say_v we_o of_o caterpillar_n who_o come_v in_o army_n into_o our_o land_n irish_a caterpillar_n and_o english_a caterpillar_n that_o h●ve_v devour_v the_o fruit_n of_o the_o land_n and_o the_o strength_n thereof_o but_o we_o must_v thank_v the_o worthy_n of_o our_o kingdom_n for_o scatter_v these_o and_o what_o say_v we_o then_o to_o the_o darkness_n that_o be_v upon_o egypt_n be_v not_o the_o like_a in_o england_n sure_o a_o wonderful_a and_o a_o palpable_a darkness_n when_o they_o can_v see_v at_o noon_n day_n when_o they_o be_v give_v over_o to_o that_o hardness_n of_o heart_n and_o that_o also_o in_o oppress_v of_o god_n people_n that_o to_o this_o day_n they_o can_v see_v themselves_o so_o that_o after_o so_o many_o thousand_o year_n we_o may_v find_v some_o egyptian_n that_o far_o exceed_v pharaoh_n in_o hardness_n of_o heart_n for_o he_o do_v confess_v his_o sin_n and_o do_v deprecate_v god_n to_o pardon_v it_o but_o our_o egyptian_n can_v find_v no_o fault_n with_o themselves_o again_o what_o say_v we_o to_o the_o primogeniti_fw-la of_o the_o firstborn_a in_o egypt_n after_o the_o firstborn_a of_o egypt_n be_v slay_v the_o child_n of_o israel_n be_v deliver_v david_n call_v they_o the_o chief_a of_o egypt_n i_o speak_v of_o the_o chief_a of_o these_o incendiary_n do_v we_o not_o see_v they_o smite_v off_o in_o the_o late_a vote_n against_o they_o and_o for_o the_o destroy_n of_o they_o certain_o primogeniti_fw-la be_v take_v away_o we_o may_v well_o hope_v for_o a_o glorious_a deliverance_n upon_o the_o church_n of_o god_n the_o child_n of_o god_n have_v not_o yet_o deliverance_n but_o they_o shall_v have_v it_o i_o will_v not_o pursue_v these_o man_n to_o the_o red_a sea_n but_o sure_o if_o they_o do_v not_o repent_v god_n have_v a_o sea_n a_o sea_n of_o destruction_n to_o swallow_v they_o up_o thus_o we_o see_v in_o respect_n of_o the_o punishment_n god_n do_v send_v on_o the_o wicked_a that_o do_v detain_v his_o people_n in_o bondage_n we_o ought_v to_o be_v well_o affect_v to_o the_o church_n of_o god_n and_o especial_o when_o he_o call_v his_o people_n to_o do_v justice_n and_o to_o deliver_v his_o people_n for_o when_o the_o egyptian_n make_v a_o violent_a detain_n of_o god_n people_n what_o can_v be_v expect_v but_o plague_n upon_o plague_n upon_o the_o egyptian_n but_o now_o to_o speak_v a_o word_n of_o the_o last_o reason_n and_o that_o be_v the_o consideration_n of_o the_o mean_n that_o be_v here_o commit_v unto_o we_o by_o which_o it_o please_v god_n still_o to_o deliver_v his_o people_n and_o that_o be_v by_o prayer_n oh_o that_o some_o will_v deliver_v the_o people_n of_o god_n who_o shall_v give_v salvation_n unto_o israel_n here_o you_o see_v be_v nothing_o but_o a_o bare_a wish_n yet_o out_o of_o a_o sound_a heart_n compassionate_a of_o the_o captivity_n of_o god_n people_n who_o shall_v give_v deliverance_n unto_o god_n people_n this_o be_v the_o time_n wherein_o god_n do_v begin_v to_o deliver_v his_o people_n when_o god_n people_n begin_v to_o cry_v and_o to_o seek_v than_o he_o begin_v to_o hear_v in_o the_o 2_o of_o exodus_fw-la the_o lord_n tell_v moses_n they_o sigh_v for_o their_o burden_n and_o in_o the_o three_o chapter_n say_v i_o have_v hear_v the_o cry_n of_o the_o people_n and_o their_o sigh_n here_o be_v the_o first_o instance_n that_o god_n be_v please_v to_o take_v to_o send_v moses_n to_o deliver_v his_o people_n when_o their_o brick_n be_v double_v than_o moses_n be_v i_o say_v send_v to_o deliver_v they_o so_o then_o here_o be_v the_o seven_o reason_n that_o god_n be_v move_v to_o compassionate_v his_o people_n with_o a_o prayer_n or_o a_o cry_n when_o nothing_o else_o will_v deliver_v we_o prayer_n and_o tear_n will_v but_o again_o when_o the_o child_n of_o israel_n be_v in_o bondage_n god_n send_v they_o another_o cause_n of_o deliverance_n when_o they_o be_v bring_v to_o the_o low_a ebb_n to_o the_o great_a misery_n as_o you_o see_v deut._n 23.3_o there_o the_o lord_n say_v of_o his_o people_n that_o when_o they_o shall_v be_v bring_v low_a when_o all_o their_o strength_n be_v go_v and_o there_o be_v no_o hope_n to_o prevail_v than_o he_o will_v deliver_v they_o 2._o on_o the_o other_o side_n when_o the_o enemy_n of_o god_n be_v advance_v to_o the_o height_n and_o to_o the_o pitch_n of_o all_o their_o pride_n and_o all_o their_o cruelty_n than_o this_o be_v a_o time_n that_o do_v forerun_v their_o destruction_n so_o god_n serve_v the_o amorite_n when_o their_o sin_n be_v full_a they_o give_v way_n to_o the_o people_n of_o god_n to_o take_v possession_n of_o their_o land_n and_o so_o you_o may_v read_v isaiah_n 10.10_o where_o the_o lord_n speak_v upbraid_v of_o assyria_n for_o oppress_v his_o people_n thus_o he_o do_v argue_v the_o case_n with_o they_o and_o thereupon_o their_o destruction_n come_v and_o so_o when_o the_o babylonian_a lift_v up_o himself_o above_o the_o throne_n of_o god_n as_o high_a as_o the_o star_n call_v lucifer_n trample_v upon_o the_o people_n of_o god_n and_o spoil_v the_o nation_n thereupon_o the_o lord_n threaten_v the_o destruction_n of_o the_o nation_n even_o of_o that_o whole_a kingdom_n and_o so_o ier._n 57_o my_o blood_n be_v upon_o the_o inhabitant_n of_o caldea_n shall_v israel_n say_v i_o will_v deliver_v they_o say_v god_n take_v vengeance_n for_o they_o and_o dry_v up_o their_o sea_n thus_o we_o see_v as_o on_o the_o one_o side_n the_o extremity_n of_o god_n people_n even_o a_o sigh_n to_o god_n move_v he_o to_o compassion_n so_o on_o the_o other_o side_n the_o height_n of_o pride_n do_v bring_v upon_o they_o destruction_n but_o some_o may_v say_v we_o see_v that_o though_o there_o be_v but_o a_o few_o of_o they_o that_o be_v principal_a agent_n in_o egypt_n yet_o god_n bring_v the_o ruin_n on_o the_o whole_a land_n may_v he_o not_o do_v the_o like_a on_o this_o god_n forbid_v that_o a_o faction_n shall_v bring_v a_o nation_n to_o ruin_n and_o
