A65900	For the vineyard of the Lord of hosts to be read in their meetings : the breathings of a prisoner for the testimony of Jesus, who in the deep hath seen the afflictions of his people, and cannot hide his praise who support them, nor-with-hold his complaint because of the hardness of mens hearts, but cryes unto the Lord God of righteous judgment, for the deliverance of his own people : with a few words of exhortation and advice, given forth as a testimony of my dearest love to the whole seed of God, because I cannot otherwise communicate it in this time of my restraint, I have been the more large, that I may be refreshed with you, and you with me, in the overflowing fountain of our life / by John Whitehead.	Whitehead, John, 1630-1696.	1662 (1662)	Wing W1977; ESTC R21528	7,316	12

will_v not_o their_o destruction_n but_o rather_o that_o they_o may_v turn_v and_o live_v therefore_o hear_v my_o complaint_n and_o bow_v thy_o ear_n to_o my_o request_n for_o i_o groan_v within_o myself_o and_o my_o spirit_n breathe_v that_o thou_o may_v arise_v in_o thy_o mighty_a power_n and_o speak_v by_o thy_o righteous_a judgement_n that_o man_n may_v fear_v before_o thou_o and_o the_o

salvation_n may_v be_v show_v open_o and_o satan_n tread_v under_o foot_n for_o who_o else_o be_v sufficient_a for_o these_o thing_n but_o in_o the_o day_n of_o indignation_n o_o lord_n remember_v thy_o heritage_n and_o let_v not_o thy_o vineyard_n be_v root_v up_o but_o spare_v thy_o people_n and_o cause_v thy_o tender_a plant_n to_o grow_v chain_v the_o dragon_n and_o let_v the_o earth_n

since_o the_o break_n up_o of_o the_o day_n thou_o have_v say_v unto_o she_o that_o sit_v solitary_a i_o be_o the_o husband_n of_o thy_o youth_n therefore_o walk_v with_o i_o and_o i_o will_v not_o
