v_o 9_o why_o have_v thou_o forget_v i_o why_o go_v i_o mourning_n because_o of_o the_o oppession_n of_o the_o enemy_n and_o yet_o even_o then_o in_o this_o great_a and_o sad_a condition_n of_o

therefore_o observe_v by_o the_o way_n that_o the_o people_n of_o god_n have_v many_o time_n to_o their_o great_a comfort_n cause_n in_o the_o midst_n loc._n of_o their_o great_a trouble_n and_o

his_o soul_n be_v cast_v down_o under_o the_o sense_n of_o sin_n that_o he_o have_v commit_v against_o god_n and_o the_o evil_a effect_n of_o ●_z sin_n to_o remember_v what_o he_o have_v do_v

the_o body_n blasphemy_n against_o god_n be_v as_o a_o sword_n in_o his_o bone_n when_o trouble_n on_o himself_o be_v but_o as_o a_o scratch_n in_o

you_o see_v he_o in_o a_o marvellous_a sury_n that_o he_o can_v not_o bear_v a_o small_a injury_n what_o be_v the_o reason_n that_o david_n be_v so_o passionate_a for_o nabals_n injury_n and_o so_o

the_o great_a cause_n of_o disquiet_n i_o shall_v distinguish_v of_o the_o outward_a suffering_n of_o god_n people_n into_o two_o sort_n first_o there_o be_v privative_a suffering_n that_o be_v some_o outward_a good_a thing_n that_o the_o people_n of_o god_n do_v want_n and_o this_o great_o trouble_v they_o it_o may_v be_v they_o be_v poor_a and_o want_v estate_n it_o may_v be_v want_n friend_n it_o may_v be_v sick_a and_o want_v help_v and_o more_o pinch_v than_o other_o man_n be_v and_o this_o great_o disquiet_v they_o or_o else_o second_o there_o be_v some_o positive_a evil_n of_o suffering_n they_o lie_v under_o i_o shall_v speak_v to_o the_o first_o that_o god_n people_n shall_v not_o be_v disquiet_v though_o they_o do_v want_v outward_a good_a thing_n to_o keep_v they_o that_o they_o may_v not_o be_v disquiet_v for_o outward_a want_n i_o will_v leave_v six_o consideration_n with_o you_o first_o consider_v thou_o may_v be_v sure_a thou_o shall_v want_v no_o outward_a thing_n the_o have_v of_o which_o god_n do_v see_v good_a for_o thou_o consideration_n if_o god_n see_v that_o thing_n thou_o want_v shall_v be_v good_a for_o thou_o to_o have_v thou_o may_v be_v sure_a thou_o shall_v not_o want_v it_o be_v thou_o poor_a and_o want_v a_o livelihood_n thou_o may_v be_v certain_a god_n do_v see_v the_o want_n of_o wealth_n best_o for_o thou_o psal_n 84._o 11._o no_o good_a thing_n will_v he_o withhold_v from_o etc._n etc._n if_o it_o be_v good_a for_o thou_o he_o will_v withhold_v nothing_o from_o thou_o for_o that_o god_n that_o do_v not_o grudge_v to_o give_v thou_o his_o son_n he_o will_v not_o grudge_v to_o give_v thou_o a_o little_a pelf_n of_o the_o world_n if_o he_o see_v it_o good_a for_o thou_o second_o consider_v that_o god_n do_v let_v his_o own_o people_n want_v some_o outward_a good_a thing_n that_o he_o may_v give_v they_o better_a thing_n in_o the_o room_n of_o they_o i_o will_v give_v you_o but_o a_o few_o instance_n in_o see_v

great_a loss_n to_o he_o and_o yet_o for_o all_o that_o job_n want_v and_o lose_v it_o be_v make_v up_o double_a to_o he_o job_n lose_v a_o thousand_o sheep_n and_o god_n give_v he_o fourteen_o thousand_o sheep_n he_o lose_v of_o his_o camel_n three_o thousand_o and_o god_n give_v he_o six_o thousand_o camel_n he_o lose_v five_o hundred_o yoke_n of_o ox_n and_o god_n give_v he_o a_o thousand_o yoke_n of_o ox_n god_n give_v he_o double_a of_o his_o substance_n but_o not_o child_n double_a but_o for_o outward_a thing_n god_n give_v he_o double_a for_o what_o he_o lose_v if_o god_n
