with_o open_a face_n it_o will_v appear_v by_o this_o it_o will_v make_v your_o heart_n humble_a it_o will_v work_v a_o holy_a frame_n of_o humiliation_n no_o proud_a man_n have_v ever_o see_v god_n no_o man_n have_v ever_o see_v god_n but_o his_o heart_n be_v thorough_o humble_v but_o that_o beget_v another_o question_n how_o shall_v i_o know_v whether_o i_o have_v a_o humble_a heart_n or_o no_o

i_o shall_v leave_v to_o speak_v of_o our_o carriage_n towards_o saint_n for_o the_o last_o because_o it_o will_v require_v a_o little_a more_o time_n and_o because_o i_o shall_v speak_v but_o a_o

all_o man_n indeed_o there_o be_v no_o heart_n in_o the_o world_n so_o proud_a you_o shall_v observe_v it_o but_o it_o have_v in_o it_o some_o meekness_n and_o especial_o to_o some_o man_n the_o

isaiah_n write_v be_v gospel_n he_o be_v a_o evangelicall_n prophet_n and_o in_o that_o description_n there_o be_v these_o thing_n first_o the_o occasion_n of_o this_o great_a humiliation_n they_o god_n humble_v his_o minister_n ere_o he_o send_v they_o of_o the_o prophet_n and_o that_o be_v that_o god_n be_v now_o set_v he_o forth_o in_o the_o gospel_n to_o preach_v the_o will_n of_o god_n to_o the_o people_n god_n when_o he_o send_v minister_n to_o his_o work_n he_o do_v first_o humble_v they_o they_o can_v never_o do_v any_o thing_n to_o purpose_n for_o god_n till_o they_o be_v undo_v woe_n be_v i_o i_o be_o undo_v say_v the_o prophet_n in_o this_o verse_n and_o then_o in_o the_o verse_n follow_v god_n send_v he_o to_o preach_v so_o that_o the_o main_a cause_n why_o you_o have_v not_o minister_n according_a to_o god_n that_o he_o do_v not_o bless_v their_o work_n according_a to_o your_o heart_n and_o desire_n it_o be_v not_o for_o want_v of_o part_n or_o understanding_n or_o for_o want_n of_o part_n or_o degree_n or_o the_o like_a but_o the_o general_a the_o main_a cause_n be_v because_o they_o be_v not_o humble_v god_n have_v not_o undo_v they_o second_o there_o be_v the_o humiliation_n itself_o which_o consist_v first_o of_o a_o act_n of_o the_o understanding_n whereby_o the_o prophet_n see_v some_o thing_n more_o than_o he_o know_v before_o and_o cry_v out_o i_o be_o undo_v he_o think_v he_o be_v in_o a_o good_a condition_n before_o but_o now_o he_o do_v not_o mere_o say_v i_o be_o undo_v but_o woe_n be_v i_o woe_n be_v i_o i_o be_o undo_v three_o there_o be_v the_o cause_n of_o it_o and_o the_o cause_n be_v twofold_a one_o be_v material_a as_o you_o call_v it_o that_o be_v sin_n woe_n be_v i_o i_o be_o undo_v why_o because_o i_o be_o a_o man_n say_v the_o septuagint_n indeed_o a_o man_n as_o a_o man_n will_v be_v undo_v if_o humiliation_n sin_n a_o cause_n of_o humiliation_n he_o see_v the_o glory_n of_o god_n if_o he_o be_v not_o a_o sinner_n but_o say_v he_o because_o i_o be_o a_o man_n of_o unclean_a lip_n and_o because_o i_o dwell_v among_o a_o people_n of_o unclean_a lip_n because_o i_o see_v i_o have_v many_o sin_n and_o because_o i_o see_v they_o now_o the_o least_o sin_n be_v exceed_o sinful_a even_o to_o dwell_v among_o wicked_a people_n a_o man_n can_v choose_v but_o be_v taint_v with_o they_o therefore_o woe_n be_v i_o i_o be_o undo_v the_o other_o cause_n be_v in_o these_o word_n i_o have_v see_v the_o king_n the_o lord_n of_o host_n for_o a_o man_n may_v have_v sinenough_fw-mi and_o yet_o never_o be_v humble_v or_o undo_v as_o you_o know_v wicked_a man_n now_o have_v and_o man_n and_o devil_n sight_n the_o sight_n of_o god_n a_o humble_v sight_n for_o ever_o will_v have_v hereafter_o in_o hell_n and_o yet_o they_o will_v never_o be_v humble_v they_o will_v never_o be_v undo_v in_o this_o sense_n but_o there_o be_v this_o thing_n to_o make_v it_o up_o my_o eye_n have_v see_v the_o king_n the_o lord_n of_o host_n as_o we_o see_v in_o the_o verse_n before_o in_o the_o vision_n how_o he_o have_v see_v the_o lord_n so_o now_o we_o come_v to_o these_o word_n for_o my_o eye_n have_v see_v the_o king_n the_o

ever_o will_v be_v to_o see_v god_n to_o see_v the_o king_n the_o lord_n of_o host_n second_o that_o a_o true_a save_a sight_n of_o the_o lord_n of_o host_n of_o god_n in_o christ_n jesus_n be_v that_o principal_o that_o undo_v man_n or_o true_o and_o save_o humble_v man_n i_o shall_v speak_v more_o particular_o of_o the_o latter_a but_o we_o can_v well_o understand_v the_o latter_a without_o

what_o this_o see_v of_o god_n be_v i_o shall_v speak_v brief_o of_o the_o former_a lesson_n which_o be_v this_o that_o god_n doct._n 1._o the_o peculiar_a privilege_n of_o the_o saint_n to_o see_v

but_o when_o we_o come_v to_o fifty_o or_o sixty_o than_o we_o can_v see_v nothing_o but_o through_o spectacle_n it_o shall_v be_v just_a contrary_n with_o we_o when_o we_o be_v christian_n when_o we_o be_v young_a we_o usual_o never_o read_v the_o word_n of_o god_n but_o through_o the_o spectacle_n of_o man_n gloss_n but_o when_o we_o be_v old_a christian_n and_o strong_a saint_n we_o shall_v learn_v to_o read_v better_o without_o spectacle_n we_o shall_v daily_o make_v less_o use_n of_o man_n book_n and_o more_o of_o god_n book_n that_o whereas_o before_o a_o man_n turn_v over_o twenty_o
