for_o it_o be_v good_a reason_n that_o our_o faith_n shall_v be_v try_v to_o weet_v whether_o we_o live_v in_o uprightness_n soundness_n and_o love_n before_o our_o god_n or_o whether_o there_o be_v

this_o be_v still_o to_o show_v we_o that_o which_o i_o have_v declare_v afore_o namely_o that_o we_o can_v never_o be_v at_o any_o stay_n unless_o we_o know_v well_o what_o god_n it_o be_v who_o we_o

i_o mean_v who_o god_n have_v choose_v to_o be_v of_o his_o household_n to_o be_v more_o familiar_o teach_v this_o do_v god_n speak_v as_o it_o be_v mouth_n to_o mouth_n and_o look_v what_o the_o

unto_o we_o that_o we_o shall_v be_v thereof_o assure_v that_o be_v the_o cause_n why_o he_o say_v that_o he_o will_v make_v all_o manner_n of_o felicity_n to_o reign_v upon_o we_o so_o we_o will_v

that_o he_o delight_v not_o to_o vex_v we_o with_o multitude_n of_o evil_n but_o that_o he_o mean_v rather_o to_o make_v we_o feel_v his_o goodness_n in_o all_o respect_n let_v we_o therefore_o be_v

may_v be_v bless_v nevertheless_o it_o be_v certain_a that_o god_n oftentimes_o afflict_v his_o people_n for_o other_o cause_n than_o their_o sin_n as_o we_o see_v it_o happen_v to_o job_n which_o be_v a_o notable_a mirror_n for_o us._n we_o see_v the_o like_a in_o the_o holy_a patriarch_n who_o although_o they_o do_v endeavour_n and_o travail_n to_o serve_v god_n yet_o be_v they_o in_o as_o great_a trouble_n and_o grief_n as_o can_v be_v the_o same_o be_v yet_o more_o manifest_a in_o the_o new_a testament_n for_o see_v that_o god_n have_v reveil_v more_o full_o what_o be_v the_o perfect_a happiness_n of_o man_n it_o behoove_v the_o faithful_a to_o be_v exercise_v under_o many_o adversity_n in_o this_o transitory_a life_n but_o let_v we_o mark_v first_o of_o all_o that_o if_o god_n do_v not_o punish_v the_o sin_n of_o the_o faithful_a he_o do_v it_o to_o preserve_v they_o as_o the_o physician_n that_o wait_v not_o always_o till_o the_o sickness_n do_v appear_v but_o if_o he_o perceive_v any_o likelihood_n that_o a_o man_n be_v in_o danger_n he_o will_v prevent_v it_o god_n then_o in_o not_o punish_v the_o sin_n that_o be_v present_o commit_v by_o his_o child_n do_v use_v chastisement_n towards_o they_o as_o preservative_n medicine_n it_o may_v every_o day_n fall_v out_o that_o a_o man_n have_v not_o offend_v against_o god_n in_o some_o particular_a sin_n but_o what_o if_o he_o be_v always_o in_o prosperity_n he_o will_v forget_v himself_o god_n therefore_o do_v cure_v such_o disease_n by_o withdraw_a his_o blessing_n he_o will_v not_o suffer_v the_o fat_a to_o blind_v man_n eye_n or_o to_o hinder_v our_o come_n unto_o he_o lest_o it_o shall_v stay_v we_o too_o long_o in_o this_o world_n he_o will_v not_o suffer_v we_o to_o be_v so_o entangle_v in_o our_o delight_n as_o to_o fall_v altogether_o on_o sleep_n in_o the_o same_o there_o be_v yet_o a_o second_o point_n to_o wit_n that_o when_o god_n forbear_v to_o punish_v we_o for_o our_o sin_n it_o be_v not_o that_o he_o have_v not_o always_o just_a cause_n so_o to_o do_v if_o he_o list_v let_v the_o perfect_a folk_n in_o the_o world_n be_v choose_v out_o and_o yet_o if_o god_n will_v deal_v with_o they_o by_o rigour_n he_o shall_v lay_v many_o hard_a knock_n upon_o their_o pate_n but_o true_o we_o think_v it_o not_o so_o for_o we_o be_v not_o so_o sharp_a sight_v as_o to_o know_v the_o fault_n which_o god_n do_v mark_v but_o yet_o must_v we_o assure_v ourselves_o that_o god_n utter_v his_o patience_n and_o goodness_n in_o that_o he_o spare_v man_n and_o punish_v they_o not_o i_o mean_v the_o most_o righteous_a that_o can_v be_v find_v as_o for_o example_n when_o david_n be_v cruel_o persecute_v of_o saul_n and_o of_o all_o his_o enemy_n when_o abraham_n be_v stinge_v and_o vex_v so_o many_o way_n likewise_o when_o isaac_n and_o jacob_n and_o all_o the_o prophet_n be_v afflict_v by_o the_o wicked_a and_o by_o the_o despiser_n of_o god_n even_o to_o the_o very_a death_n and_o final_o when_o the_o apostle_n and_o all_o the_o faithful_a be_v cruel_o deal_v with_o it_o be_v not_o for_o their_o sin_n no_o very_o but_o have_v it_o please_v god_n to_o have_v call_v they_o to_o account_v he_o may_v have_v punish_v they_o a_o hundred_o time_n more_o and_o they_o shall_v have_v have_v no_o cause_n to_o have_v accuse_v he_o of_o cruelty_n he_o spare_v they_o and_o in_o so_o do_v he_o do_v they_o the_o honour_n to_o suffer_v for_o his_o name_n or_o rather_o he_o try_v their_o obedience_n kill_v their_o carnal_a affection_n and_o draw_v they_o near_o unto_o himself_o as_o for_o example_n whereas_o it_o please_v god_n to_o make_v job_n a_o mirror_n of_o patience_n yet_o nevertheless_o he_o make_v he_o acquaint_v with_o his_o own_o frailty_n but_o howsoevet_n it_o be_v yet_o be_v it_o his_o intent_n to_o make_v he_o to_o serve_v for_o a_o example_n to_o we_o all_o we_o perceive_v then_o that_o god_n have_v other_o meaning_n in_o afflict_v his_o people_n than_o only_o to_o punish_v their_o sin_n nevertheless_o he_o cease_v not_o to_o uphold_v they_o even_o by_o his_o own_o mere_a grace_n and_o yet_o must_v we_o on_o our_o side_n resort_v back_o to_o this_o point_n that_o the_o original_n of_o all_o the_o misery_n that_o we_o suffer_v in_o this_o present_a world_n do_v proceed_v of_o sin_n and_o why_o so_o for_o be_v not_o this_o corruption_n in_o our_o nature_n which_o god_n condemn_v and_o of_o the_o which_o also_o we_o be_v convict_v we_o shall_v enjoy_v here_o a_o bless_a life_n all_o this_o whole_a world_n shall_v be_v unto_o we_o a_o earthly_a

escape_v his_o hand_n now_o after_o the_o threaten_n which_o we_o have_v see_v here_o before_o he_o present_o add_v that_o they_o which_o so_o resist_v god_n shall_v be_v afflict_v and_o torment_v so_o as_o man_n shall_v spoil_v they_o and_o they_o shall_v be_v lay_v open_a to_o all_o violence_n for_o ever_o and_o no_o man_n shall_v deliver_v they_o we_o see_v here_o that_o god_n serve_v his_o own_o turn_n by_o the_o wicked_a and_o that_o although_o their_o intent_n be_v nothing_o so_o yet_o do_v he_o apply_v they_o to_o a_o good_a use_n when_o he_o list_v to_o punish_v us._n whereas_o there_o be_v thief_n and_o robber_n albeit_o that_o they_o be_v give_v over_o to_o satan_n yet_o fail_v they_o not_o to_o serve_v god_n purpose_n yea_o true_o for_o we_o see_v in_o this_o text_n that_o our_o lord_n leave_v they_o not_o at_o random_n to_o rob_v and_o to_o spoil_v whether_o he_o will_v or_o no_o but_o he_o threaten_v his_o people_n say_v they_o that_o disobey_v i_o shall_v be_v

well_o condemn_v they_o according_a as_o he_o be_v righteous_a and_o must_v needs_o hate_v injustice_n yet_o notwithstanding_o by_o his_o wonderful_a wisdom_n which_o to_o we_o be_v incomprehensible_a he_o turn_v those_o thing_n to_o his_o own_o service_n so_o that_o when_o we_o have_v offend_v he_o he_o must_v needs_o punish_v we_o by_o the_o hand_n of_o the_o most_o wicked_a which_o be_v the_o more_o to_o our_o reproach_n for_o if_o he_o himself_o shall_v have_v punish_v we_o and_o we_o see_v before_o our_o eye_n y_z t_z he_o revenge_v he_o of_o our_o iniquity_n well_o will_v we_o say_v see_v that_o we_o have_v offend_v he_o it_o be_v good_a reason_n that_o we_o shall_v come_v to_o account_v for_o it_o but_o when_o he_o stur_v uppe_o lewd_a folk_n and_o despiser_n of_o his_o

that_o whencesoever_o the_o evil_n come_v we_o have_v evermore_o to_o deal_v with_o god_n and_o we_o must_v think_v that_o there_o be_v nothing_o do_v in_o this_o world_n but_o by_o his_o direction_n and_o thereupon_o let_v we_o enter_v into_o the_o examination_n of_o our_o fault_n for_o it_o be_v not_o enough_o to_o know_v that_o god_n rule_v all_o thing_n but_o every_o one_o of_o we_o must_v also_o make_v his_o own_o indictment_n and_o consider_v that_o all_o affliction_n and_o adversity_n be_v token_n of_o god_n wrath_n now_o when_o we_o speak_v of_o his_o wrath_n we_o must_v in_o like_a

while_o god_n spare_v we_o let_v we_o be_v advise_v so_o to_o walk_v in_o his_o fear_n that_o we_o provoke_v he_o not_o to_o stir_v up_o thief_n to_o torment_n and_o vexâ_n we_o but_o that_o rather_o

let_v we_o see_v that_o we_o do_v so_o and_o let_v we_o remember_v that_o which_o be_v speak_v by_o the_o prophet_n esaye_n to_o wit_n that_o they_o which_o have_v rob_v must_v be_v serve_v with_o

among_o the_o prophet_n 74.12_o psal._n 74.12_o some_o have_v surmise_v that_o god_n mean_v to_o bound_v it_o out_o as_o if_o he_o have_v be_v some_o geometrician_n that_o shall_v have_v buttele_v

because_o the_o same_o surmount_v their_o capacity_n but_o if_o god_n justice_n be_v too_o high_a for_o we_o ought_v it_o to_o be_v abase_v therefore_o if_o his_o ordinance_n be_v above_o our_o

all_o such_o rascal_n for_o one_o of_o the_o common_a objection_n that_o such_o beast_n do_v make_v be_v this_o how_o so_o if_o man_n have_v not_o freewill_n to_o take_v or_o refuse_v the_o thing_n

that_o they_o know_v not_o but_o let_v we_o look_v upon_o that_o which_o moses_n rehearse_v here_o the_o message_n that_o he_o send_v to_o sehon_n king_n of_o the_o amorrhytes_n come_v of_o god_n

that_o be_v but_o to_o their_o own_o profit_n and_o to_o their_o neighbour_n loss_n and_o that_o be_v no_o mean_n of_o peace_n in_o deed_n desire_v we_o then_o to_o be_v at_o peace_n desire_v we_o

to_o maintain_v friendship_n with_o they_o so_o if_o they_o offer_v we_o reason_n we_o must_v look_v that_o we_o refuse_v it_o not_o for_o if_o we_o be_v unmeasurable_o hard_a to_o be_v content_v

not_o prevail_v yet_o he_o cease_v not_o to_o send_v it_o but_o here_o moses_n express_v yet_o a_o further_a matter_n that_o god_n harden_v man_n heart_n and_o in_o the_o end_n he_o add_v moreover_o that_o he_o do_v it_o of_o purpose_n to_o overthrow_v they_o and_o destroy_v they_o which_o be_v much_o more_o now_o this_o be_v very_o strange_a gear_n at_o the_o first_o sight_n and_o that_o be_v

rise_v up_o so_o against_o israel_n if_o man_n shall_v flee_v always_o to_o this_o gloze_n god_n say_v that_o he_o will_v harden_v that_o be_v to_o say_v he_o will_v not_o hinder_v or_o impeach_v the_o harden_v to_o what_o purpose_n be_v that_o we_o see_v it_o be_v a_o fond_a kind_n of_o deal_v and_o the_o word_n turn_v show_v it_o well_o behold_v god_n turn_v the_o heart_n whereas_o man_n

what_o mean_v that_o so_o than_o unless_o we_o mean_v to_o dally_v and_o mock_v with_o the_o holy_a scripture_n we_o must_v not_o seek_v such_o shift_n but_o rather_o consider_v after_o what_o sort_n it_o be_v that_o god_n harden_v man_n heart_n and_o yet_o notwithstanding_o be_v not_o guilty_a of_o the_o hardness_n that_o be_v in_o man_n nor_o can_v or_o aught_o to_o be_v charge_v with_o the_o evil_n we_o must_v come_v to_o that_o point_n for_o let_v we_o mark_v that_o although_o god_n harden_v man_n heart_n yet_o man_n fail_v not_o also_o to_o harden_v themselves_o and_o these_o two_o thing_n may_v agree_v very_o well_o that_o be_v to_o wit_n that_o a_o man_n shall_v harden_v himself_o in_o his_o own_o naughtiness_n and_o yet_o not_o without_o god_n work_v in_o such_o wise_a as_o the_o evil_n proceed_v not_o of_o he_o ne_o aught_o to_o be_v impute_v to_o he_o as_o i_o say_v afore_o and_o to_o prove_v that_o man_n themselves_o ought_v to_o bear_v the_o blame_n and_o

even_o the_o wicked_a sort_n do_v give_v evidence_n against_o themselves_o and_o although_o all_o the_o world_n will_v excuse_v they_o and_o that_o both_o great_a &_o small_a do_v acquit_v they_o yet_o have_v they_o a_o hartbiting_a within_o they_o which_o make_v they_o to_o perceive_v that_o whensoever_o they_o offend_v or_o sin_n they_o do_v it_o willing_o of_o their_o own_o accord_n of_o a_o certain_a lewdness_n and_o with_o their_o own_o wil._n there_o be_v not_o that_o man_n which_o know_v not_o this_o even_o the_o great_a despiser_n of_o god_n that_o be_v say_v i_o even_o they_o that_o be_v become_v as_o brutish_a as_o be_v possible_a to_o be_v have_v the_o say_a brondingyron_n sear_v within_o they_o so_o as_o they_o know_v that_o their_o sin_n come_v of_o nothing_o else_o than_o their_o own_o self_n move_v and_o of_o their_o own_o curse_a and_o wicked_a affection_n see_v then_o that_o man_n do_v feel_v themselves_o guilty_a there_o need_v no_o more_o dispute_v upon_o that_o poinâ_n but_o now_o let_v we_o come_v to_o the_o second_o point_n that_o be_v to_o wit_n how_o it_o be_v that_o god_n harden_v man_n without_o be_v partaker_n of_o their_o sin_n let_v we_o mark_v that_o sometime_o the_o cause_n shall_v be_v apparent_a and_o whensoever_o god_n punish_v man_n we_o must_v needs_o confess_v that_o he_o do_v it_o just_o mark_v that_o for_o one_o point_n now_o one_o of_o the_o mean_n which_o he_o have_v to_o punish_v man_n with_o all_o be_v that_o he_o blind_v they_o that_o he_o harden_v their_o heart_n that_o he_o send_v they_o the_o spirit_n of_o giddiness_n that_o he_o deliver_v they_o up_o to_o satan_n these_o than_o be_v sign_n of_o god_n wrath_n and_o vengeance_n and_o therefore_o if_o there_o be_v any_o cause_n go_v before_o we_o must_v glorify_v he_o and_o why_o for_o he_o do_v the_o office_n of_o a_o judge_n and_o for_o so_o do_v there_o be_v no_o cause_n to_o carp_v and_o snap_v at_o he_o it_o be_v say_v that_o god_n will_v send_v the_o spirit_n of_o drowsiness_n upon_o man_n 19.14_o ãâã_d 19.14_o 1.28_o ââm_fw-la 1.28_o and_o why_o
of_o necessity_n we_o must_v not_o step_v to_o he_o with_o such_o lustiness_n as_o though_o he_o owe_v we_o any_o thing_n but_o after_o as_o we_o have_v feel_v the_o experience_n of_o his_o goodness_n and_o grace_n towards_o we_o we_o may_v be_v so_o much_o the_o more_o familiar_a with_o he_o and_o that_o be_v the_o thing_n whereon_o we_o must_v cast_v our_o eye_n and_o it_o be_v also_o the_o thing_n wherein_o god_n be_v right_o glorify_v by_o us._n when_o i_o come_v unto_o he_o and_o say_v ah_o lord_n true_a it_o be_v that_o nothing_o i_o be_o nor_o nothing_o i_o can_v i_o have_v nothing_o in_o i_o but_o utter_a naughtiness_n nevertheless_o forasmuch_o as_o i_o have_v find_v thou_o bountiful_a to_o i_o heretofore_o &_o thou_o have_v show_v thyself_o good_a to_o i_o so_o many_o way_n therefore_o do_v i_o resort_v unto_o thou_o still_o behold_v by_o my_o so_o do_v god_n say_v i_o be_v glorify_v both_o for_o the_o time_n present_a and_o for_o the_o time_n to_o come_v and_o it_o be_v not_o only_a moses_n that_o have_v use_v this_o manner_n of_o pray_v we_o see_v it_o be_v common_a among_o all_o the_o ancient_a father_n how_o often_o see_v we_o it_o use_v in_o the_o psalm_n â_o psal._n 30_o gen._n 32._o â_o and_o we_o see_v also_o that_o jacob_n do_v the_o like_a lord_n say_v he_o i_o be_o stuff_v full_a of_o thy_o benefit_n when_o i_o consider_v the_o good_a that_o thou_o have_v do_v i_o i_o can_v but_o acknowledge_v that_o thou_o have_v use_v wonderful_a mercy_n towards_o i_o and_o yet_o for_o all_o that_o i_o be_o fain_o now_o to_o repair_v to_o thou_o still_o wherefore_o let_v we_o learn_v that_o if_o moses_n be_v a_o man_n of_o god_n yea_o and_o such_o a_o one_o as_o have_v so_o excellent_a record_n of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n allege_v not_o any_o

our_o lip_n unto_o he_o and_o to_o stoop_v and_o to_o discharge_v ourselves_o of_o all_o selfestimation_n when_o we_o come_v unto_o he_o so_o as_o we_o presume_v not_o upon_o any_o thing_n that_o be_v in_o ourselves_o mark_v that_o for_o one_o point_n but_o though_o we_o be_v unworthy_a to_o pray_v we_o have_v well_o wherewith_o to_o embolden_v we_o by_o reason_n of_o the_o great_a number_n of_o benefit_n that_o we_o have_v receive_v at_o god_n hand_n for_o his_o reach_v out_o of_o his_o hand_n unto_o we_o be_v not_o to_o do_v we_o good_a for_o one_o day_n but_o to_o continue_v and_o to_o give_v we_o access_n to_o resort_v to_o he_o again_o to_o morrow_n in_o so_o much_o that_o when_o god_n have_v once_o be_v gracious_a to_o we_o thereby_o he_o show_v that_o he_o will_v have_v we_o to_o come_v still_o to_o he_o see_v he_o have_v show_v we_o the_o way_n and_o open_v we_o the_o gate_n so_o then_o let_v we_o learn_v to_o call_v to_o mind_v the_o great_a number_n of_o benefit_n whereby_o god_n have_v utter_v his_o love_n towards_o we_o to_o strengthen_v ourselves_o withal_o that_o we_o may_v take_v heart_n to_o warrant_v ourselves_o by_o true_a faith_n that_o he_o will_v

the_o very_a cause_n why_o we_o be_v so_o cold_a in_o pray_v and_o why_o we_o go_v to_o it_o so_o unlusty_o not_o know_v whether_o we_o shall_v obtain_v aught_o or_o no_o or_o whether_o our_o prayer_n shall_v be_v in_o vain_a and_o unprofitable_a or_o no._n why_o so_o for_o we_o bethink_v we_o not_o of_o the_o promise_n that_o god_n have_v make_v we_o and_o as_o you_o will_v say_v of_o the_o

to_o show_v thy_o servant_n the_o highness_n of_o thy_o mighty_a arm_n now_o moses_n speak_v here_o express_o of_o god_n highness_n and_o greatness_n and_o of_o the_o mighty_a power_n of_o his_o

be_v fain_o to_o shun_v his_o throne_n as_o offender_n shun_v the_o seat_n of_o the_o judge_n to_o the_o uttermost_a of_o their_o power_n to_o be_v short_a we_o be_v but_o wretched_a worm_n and_o

be_v good_a for_o we_o to_o understand_v more_o at_o large_a the_o thing_n that_o i_o have_v touch_v in_o one_o word_n namely_o that_o the_o law_n fray_v we_o far_o more_o in_o comparison_n than_o

and_o flourish_v and_o reign_v even_o after_o we_o be_v dead_a the_o other_o reason_n be_v that_o he_o intend_v to_o quicken_v up_o the_o jew_n to_o serve_v god_n with_o the_o better_a courage_n by_o

a_o second_o point_n which_o be_v that_o moses_n intend_v to_o stir_v up_o the_o people_n to_o honour_n god_n and_o to_o obey_v he_o because_o they_o have_v be_v deliver_v by_o his_o mighty_a hand_n therefore_o it_o be_v all_o one_o as_o if_o he_o shall_v say_v bethink_v yourselves_o well_o of_o the_o good_a which_o your_o god_n have_v do_v for_o you_o for_o he_o have_v show_v himself_o to_o be_v

but_o all_o manner_n of_o pomp_n and_o glory_n to_o the_o worldward_n and_o yet_o notwithstanding_o your_o god_n have_v love_v you_o so_o dear_o that_o he_o have_v not_o spare_v the_o egyptian_n for_o

prevent_v you_o of_o purpose_n to_o be_v your_o father_n be_v it_o not_o reason_n that_o you_o shall_v give_v yourselves_o to_o he_o all_o your_o life_n long_o and_o endeavour_n to_o serve_v he_o and_o at_o leastwise_o show_v that_o you_o have_v not_o forget_v his_o so_o great_a and_o inestimable_a benefit_n yes_o and_o so_o we_o see_v that_o forasmuch_o as_o the_o jew_n may_v be_v negligent_a in_o keep_v god_n law_n moses_n renew_v the_o rememberaunce_n thereof_o and_o set_v their_o deliverance_n before_o they_o that_o they_o may_v be_v the_o better_a mind_a and_o consider_v that_o they_o

the_o keep_n of_o the_o outward_a form_n of_o the_o law_n be_v not_o all_o that_o we_o have_v to_o do_v but_o that_o we_o must_v special_o observe_v the_o substance_n of_o the_o law_n will_v we_o

it_o be_v that_o the_o jew_n will_v not_o utter_o transgress_v this_o order_n but_o yet_o they_o think_v it_o enough_o for_o they_o to_o discharge_v themselves_o of_o the_o ceremony_n and_o they_o

be_v never_o the_o more_o relieve_v and_o all_o under_o colour_n that_o man_n can_v not_o recover_v that_o which_o they_o have_v lend_v we_o see_v then_o how_o man_n will_v always_o appease_v god_n

that_o the_o gift_n of_o continency_n be_v not_o give_v unto_o all_o and_o s._n paul_n as_o a_o faithful_a interpreter_n of_o that_o which_o his_o master_n have_v say_v 7.17_o 1._o cor._n 7.17_o

that_o it_o be_v no_o lawful_a thing_n notwithstanding_o so_o to_o do_v but_o be_v god_n contrary_a to_o himself_o no._n and_o herein_o there_o be_v no_o diversity_n as_o i_o have_v tell_v you_o for_o in_o y_z e_o two_o table_n of_o the_o law_n god_n have_v comprise_v whatsoever_o be_v require_v to_o perfect_a holiness_n and_o righteousness_n you_o see_v then_o how_o man_n ought_v to_o govern_v

thereunto_o so_o that_o if_o a_o man_n have_v but_o a_o wanton_a eye_n he_o be_v already_o condemn_v for_o a_o fornicator_n if_o there_o be_v in_o a_o man_n any_o hatred_n any_o rancour_n any_o evil_a will_n it_o be_v condemn_v for_o murder_n before_o god_n you_o see_v then_o how_o the_o law_n of_o god_n be_v spiritual_a &_o that_o it_o require_v such_o a_o true_a &_o perfect_a obedience_n that_o all_o the_o sense_n all_o the_o affection_n all_o the_o thought_n of_o a_o man_n must_v be_v agreeable_a unto_o the_o will_n of_o god_n and_o we_o must_v be_v so_o reform_v y_z t_z be_v rid_v of_o all_o the_o corruption_n of_o our_o own_o nature_n we_o may_v yield_v ourselves_o altogether_o subject_a unto_o you_o to_o which_o god_n command_v we_o and_o which_o he_o like_v of_o you_o see_v what_o y_fw-fr e_fw-la righteousness_n of_o the_o law_n be_v but_o there_o be_v no_o notice_n of_o this_o inward_a wickedness_n unto_o man_n it_o can_v be_v judge_v by_o they_o man_n shall_v not_o

you_o see_v then_o as_o touch_v y_o e_fw-la first_o point_n that_o albeit_o god_n punish_v not_o those_o divorcement_n which_o be_v make_v without_o any_o reasonable_a and_o lawful_a cause_n yet_o

that_o they_o can_v not_o abide_v that_o god_n shall_v hold_v they_o still_o for_o his_o inheritance_n but_o as_o i_o have_v say_v already_o if_o we_o be_v separate_v from_o god_n we_o be_v as_o it_o

for_o what_o a_o thing_n be_v it_o that_o we_o may_v be_v so_o bold_a as_o to_o call_v upon_o god_n as_o our_o father_n and_o resort_v unto_o he_o familiar_o and_o to_o be_v receive_v as_o his_o

a_o exhortation_n and_o yet_o for_o all_o that_o it_o shall_v seem_v that_o moses_n exhort_v the_o people_n when_o he_o say_v let_v not_o god_n word_n be_v vain_a towards_o you_o beware_v that_o you_o

profit_n by_o give_v faith_n to_o the_o hearer_n but_o the_o prophet_n esay_n mean_v not_o so_o by_o those_o word_n what_o do_v he_o then_o he_o confirm_v or_o warrant_v god_n promise_n to_o the_o

peceyve_v that_o when_o his_o word_n be_v preach_v unto_o you_o it_o be_v as_o much_o as_o if_o he_o himself_o be_v present_a to_o put_v the_o thing_n in_o proof_n and_o execution_n which_o he_o have_v declare_v thus_o we_o see_v now_o the_o meaning_n of_o moses_n to_o the_o intent_n that_o the_o people_n shall_v take_v some_o taste_n of_o god_n word_n and_o receive_v it_o with_o all_o

perform_v all_o that_o ever_o he_o have_v speak_v now_o moses_n confirm_v this_o exhortation_n yet_o better_a by_o this_o which_o he_o add_v it_o be_v your_o life_n and_o your_o welfare_n by_o it_o shall_v your_o day_n be_v prolong_v in_o the_o land_n which_o you_o go_v to_o possess_v hereby_o we_o may_v easy_o gather_v that_o moses_n make_v not_o a_o exhortation_n to_o the_o people_n to_o show_v that_o the_o word_n be_v not_o vain_a but_o rather_o that_o he_o make_v they_o a_o promise_n that_o the_o word_n shall_v have_v force_n and_o virtue_n continual_o as_o it_o be_v without_o

state_n be_v until_o our_o lord_n have_v draw_v we_o to_o he_o and_o communicate_v himself_o to_o we_o by_o mean_n of_o his_o word_n now_o when_o we_o once_o know_v that_o god_n word_n bring_v we_o

say_v lord_n thou_o know_v what_o be_v meet_v for_o i_o vouchsafe_v i_o beseech_v thou_o to_o send_v it_o i_o forasmuch_o then_o as_o man_n be_v so_o gad_v and_o that_o their_o nature_n lead_v they_o

wise_a it_o be_v because_o that_o he_o of_o his_o own_o free_a goodness_n have_v vouchsafe_v to_o love_v we_o so_o as_o we_o must_v not_o seek_v the_o cause_n thereof_o in_o ourselves_o as_o though_o we_o have_v prevent_v god_n or_o as_o though_o we_o have_v get_v aught_o by_o our_o own_o desert_n but_o we_o must_v understande_v that_o god_n be_v favourable_a unto_o we_o because_o he_o have_v
