they_o will_v say_v it_o be_v impossible_a to_o he_o who_o now_o hang_v so_o ignominious_o to_o save_v himself_o after_o they_o come_v the_o man_n of_o warâ—e_n and_o in_o derision_n they_o offer_v he_o vinegar_n to_o drink_v and_o they_o say_v this_o be_v very_a like_o a_o king_n how_o can_v he_o do_v the_o duty_n of_o a_o king_n to_o deliver_v the_o people_n who_o can_v deliver_v himself_o this_o they_o say_v because_o he_o have_v call_v himself_o a_o king_n to_o the_o prejudice_n as_o they_o think_v of_o caesar_n kingdom_n and_o last_o one_o of_o the_o thief_n rail_v on_o he_o to_o wit_n he_o that_o hang_v at_o his_o left_a hand_n say_v so_o like_a as_o thou_o be_v that_o christ_n who_o can_v neither_o save_v we_o nor_o thyself_o now_o because_o the_o rail_n of_o the_o whole_a be_v all_o to_o one_o effect_n therefore_o short_o i_o shall_v observe_v some_o thing_n in_o general_a as_o the_o lord_n shall_v offer_v in_o all_o this_o rail_n out_o against_o he_o you_o see_v the_o extreme_a humiliation_n of_o jesus_n christ_n for_o our_o sin_n he_o be_v make_v of_o no_o reputation_n no_o he_o be_v tread_v on_o as_o a_o worm_n and_o no_o question_n that_o extreme_a torment_n of_o body_n be_v not_o so_o grievous_a to_o he_o as_o be_v this_o rail_n on_o he_o they_o speak_v to_o he_o as_o a_o very_a reprobate_n and_o so_o far_o as_o lay_v in_o they_o they_o endeavour_v to_o make_v he_o to_o despare_v of_o all_o help_n so_o you_o may_v see_v this_o rail_n be_v a_o thing_n most_o grievous_a to_o he_o and_o david_n be_v his_o type_n he_o complain_v on_o this_o shame_n that_o they_o heap_v on_o he_o in_o the_o 22._o psalm_n all_o this_o let_v we_o see_v how_o dear_o the_o lord_n have_v buy_v our_o life_n and_o salvation_n and_o we_o be_v more_o than_o miserable_a if_o we_o see_v not_o this_o and_o also_o it_o let_v we_o see_v what_o shall_v have_v become_v of_o we_o if_o he_o have_v not_o satisfy_v for_o we_o and_o what_o shall_v become_v of_o thou_o if_o thou_o be_v not_o in_o christ_n in_o that_o great_a day_n and_o it_o tell_v thou_o see_v all_o this_o be_v for_o thy_o sin_n that_o thou_o shall_v have_v a_o sad_a heart_n to_o have_v such_o a_o redeemer_n make_v such_o a_o spectacle_n and_o thou_o shall_v groan_v under_o the_o burden_n of_o sin_n and_o when_o thou_o read_v of_o the_o cross_n thy_o heart_n shall_v be_v sorrowful_a that_o ever_o thou_o shall_v have_v move_v the_o god_n of_o glory_n to_o such_o vengeance_n of_o his_o dear_a son_n for_o thou_o think_v not_o that_o every_o man_n shall_v be_v relieve_v of_o his_o sin_n by_o he_o no_o only_o those_o who_o learn_v to_o groan_n under_o the_o burden_n of_o their_o own_o sin_n by_o the_o which_o they_o have_v pierce_v he_o and_o turn_v to_o the_o lord_n unfeigned_o and_o get_v favour_n so_o if_o thou_o learn_v not_o at_o one_o time_n or_o other_o to_o groan_n under_o the_o burden_n of_o thy_o sin_n thou_o shall_v never_o be_v relieve_v by_o he_o but_o to_o mark_v something_o of_o this_o rail_n i_o see_v that_o these_o thing_n they_o cast_v up_o to_o he_o be_v the_o very_a verdict_n whereupon_o they_o accuse_v he_o they_o accuse_v he_o because_o he_o call_v

the_o three_o day_n so_o the_o very_a thing_n y_z t_o they_o cast_v up_o to_o he_o in_o despite_n be_v y_z e_z very_a crime_n wherefore_o they_o condemn_v he_o man_n will_v think_v y_z t_z it_o

shall_v rehearse_v unto_o you_o the_o whole_a passion_n of_o jesus_n christ_n in_o as_o few_o word_n as_o i_o can_v then_o the_o whole_a life_n of_o jesus_n christ_n while_o he_o be_v in_o this_o

may_v be_v draw_v to_o these_o three_o sort_n the_o first_o be_v the_o lord_n jesus_n suffer_v temptation_n secondlie_o the_o lord_n jesus_n suffer_v shame_n and_o ignominy_n the_o god_n of_o glory_n

to_o these_o foul_a motion_n &_o inward_a temptation_n as_o we_o be_v who_o dare_v not_o face_v the_o sun_n nor_o the_o moon_n and_o wherefore_o suffer_v he_o all_o these_o temptation_n even_o for_o thy_o cause_n the_o end_n of_o all_o his_o suffering_n be_v that_o he_o may_v succour_v all_o they_o who_o be_v tempt_v either_o in_o body_n or_o soul_n hebr._n chap._n 2._o vers_fw-la 18._o be_v

in_o god_n justice_n extreme_a burden_n of_o sin_n extreme_a pain_n and_o extreme_a shame_n for_o the_o justice_n of_o god_n require_v that_o extreme_a sin_n be_v punish_v by_o extreme_a pain_n and_o
