do_v favour_n and_o maintain_v the_o evil_n let_v we_o assure_v ourselves_o that_o god_n have_v forsake_v they_o and_o thereby_o show_v that_o he_o have_v withdraw_v himself_o from_o we_o because_o we_o be_v not_o worthy_a to_o have_v he_o sit_v among_o we_o as_o he_o have_v promise_v to_o do_v among_o all_o such_o as_o be_v conformable_a unto_o he_o thus_o you_o see_v the_o fruit_n of_o our_o disobedience_n and_o of_o all_o our_o sin_n which_o be_v that_o god_n shall_v suffer_v all_o civil_a order_n too_o be_v overthrow_v among_o we_o that_o all_o thing_n may_v be_v confound_v as_o we_o have_v well_o deserve_v and_o so_o when_o we_o see_v such_o trouble_n and_o confusion_n among_o we_o let_v we_o assure_v ourselves_o that_o god_n punish_v we_o and_o that_o when_o he_o take_v away_o all_o discretion_n and_o understanding_n from_o judge_n after_o that_o sort_n it_o be_v because_o he_o have_v strike_v they_o with_o the_o spirit_n of_o giddiness_n as_o it_o be_v say_v in_o the_o scripture_n but_o yet_o must_v we_o not_o murmur_v against_o god_n assure_v ourselves_o that_o he_o do_v not_o any_o thing_n without_o cause_n although_o we_o can_v perceive_v it_o and_o this_o be_v it_o that_o job_n mean_v by_o say_v if_o not_o where_o be_v he_o and_o who_o be_v he_o it_o be_v to_o show_v that_o when_o we_o have_v seek_v all_o the_o reason_n why_o there_o be_v so_o much_o evil_n do_v in_o the_o world_n we_o must_v evermore_o come_v unto_o god_n for_o when_o the_o scripture_n say_v that_o god_n do_v both_o good_a and_o evil_n it_o mean_v that_o all_o thing_n proceed_v from_o he_o whether_o it_o be_v prosperity_n or_o adversity_n life_n or_o death_n light_n or_o darkness_n as_o it_o be_v say_v in_o the_o prophet_n isaiah_n insomuch_o that_o whatsoever_o the_o devil_n do_v as_o i_o have_v say_v afore_o or_o whatsoever_o the_o wicked_a sort_n do_v attempt_n we_o must_v take_v the_o same_o as_o at_o the_o hand_n of_o god_n for_o unless_o he_o give_v they_o the_o bridle_n they_o can_v not_o attempt_v any_o thing_n and_o whatsoever_o they_o devise_v they_o can_v never_o bring_v it_o to_o pass_v so_o than_o it_o be_v a_o fair_a martyr_v of_o a_o man_n self_n to_o leave_v

and_o although_o man_n seek_v nothing_o but_o to_o rebel_v against_o he_o yet_o do_v he_o serve_v his_o own_o turn_n with_o they_o spite_n of_o their_o tooth_n this_o be_v it_o that_o job_n mean_v to_o utter_v in_o say_v if_o not_o where_o be_v he_o and_o who_o be_v it_o when_o there_o happen_v any_o mischief_n let_v man_n search_v it_o out_o say_v who_o have_v do_v this_o true_a it_o be_v that_o when_o any_o evil_n happen_v we_o can_v well_o skill_n too_o make_v our_o discourse_n and_o too_o seek_v some_o ground_n of_o it_o here_o beneath_o if_o we_o be_v in_o a_o country_n where_o a_o king_n or_o prince_n reign_v tyrannical_o man_n will_v say_v behold_v the_o king_n fleece_v and_o devour_v his_o people_n and_o moreover_o make_v none_o account_v of_o minister_a justice_n he_o have_v officer_n like_o himself_o who_o seek_v but_o to_o entrap_v man_n all_o be_v overturn_v and_o out_o of_o order_n it_o be_v to_o be_v see_v that_o there_o be_v none_o other_o shift_n but_o the_o

loose_a of_o life_n in_o all_o point_n and_o respect_n so_o as_o it_o shall_v seem_v they_o be_v desirous_a to_o kindle_v the_o fire_n of_o god_n wrath_n to_o burn_v up_o all_o man_n than_o may_v well_o allege_v the_o lewdness_n of_o governor_n when_o a_o nation_n be_v so_o misorder_a after_o that_o manner_n but_o yet_o must_v they_o mount_v up_o high_o for_o let_v we_o not_o think_v that_o god_n be_v asleep_a in_o heaven_n and_o have_v forget_v the_o world_n but_o rather_o let_v we_o assure_v ourselves_o that_o he_o work_v with_o his_o own_o hand_n and_o that_o the_o sin_n of_o the_o people_n be_v the_o cause_n why_o the_o officer_n and_o man_n of_o law_n be_v wicked_a and_o that_o for_o the_o same_o cause_n god_n also_o be_v fain_o too_o shake_v they_o off_o and_o to_o make_v they_o as_o it_o be_v mirror_n of_o his_o wrath_n and_o vengeance_n so_o then_o let_v we_o so_o consider_v the_o inferior_a cause_n and_o mean_n as_o we_o may_v nevertheless_o perceive_v in_o our_o reason_n and_o understanding_n that_o god_n abide_v continual_o all_o the_o while_n in_o his_o sovereign_a dominion_n and_o as_o we_o may_v know_v that_o all_o thing_n come_v of_o he_o but_o yet_o notwithstanding_o we_o shall_v not_o always_o know_v the_o cause_n why_o god_n work_v so_o when_o we_o shall_v have_v search_v to_o the_o uttermost_a and_o make_v great_a circuit_n and_o discourse_n in_o the_o end_n we_o shall_v be_v dazzle_v and_o not_o see_v any_o reason_n why_o god_n do_v this_o or_o that_o what_o be_v to_o be_v do_v then_o we_o must_v honour_v this_o justice_n of_o god_n which_o be_v unknown_a too_o we_o true_a it_o be_v that_o sometime_o god_n work_v in_o such_o wise_a as_o his_o justice_n be_v full_o apparent_a and_o man_n may_v see_v it_o with_o their_o eye_n and_o sometime_o also_o it_o be_v hide_v and_o in_o this_o case_n we_o have_v no_o more_o to_o do_v but_o to_o honour_v it_o and_o to_o say_v alas_o lord_n thy_o judgement_n be_v a_o bottomless_a pit_n whereunto_o we_o be_v not_o able_a too_o attain_v but_o yet_o will_v we_o not_o cease_v too_o confess_v that_o thou_o be_v righteous_a although_o we_o perceive_v not_o the_o reason_n why_o howbeit_o we_o must_v not_o surmise_v as_o man_n do_v that_o be_v not_o well_o practise_v in_o the_o scripture_n that_o thing_n be_v do_v here_o below_o by_o god_n sufferance_n without_o care_v for_o they_o or_o meddle_v with_o they_o for_o that_o be_v as_o much_o as_o to_o cut_v off_o his_o power_n and_o it_o be_v all_o one_o as_o if_o he_o be_v asleep_a in_o heaven_n and_o leave_v the_o rule_n of_o the_o world_n here_o beneath_o either_o to_o satan_n or_o too_o man_n it_o be_v i_o say_v a_o utter_a deface_v of_o god_n majesty_n for_o it_o be_v meet_v that_o he_o shall_v order_v all_o that_o he_o have_v make_v and_o that_o the_o same_o shall_v proceed_v of_o his_o will_n and_o good_a disposition_n true_a it_o be_v as_o have_v be_v say_v that_o we_o see_v not_o always_o how_o god_n be_v righteous_a but_o yet_o must_v we_o acknowledge_v he_o too_o be_v so_o and_o we_o must_v walk_v in_o all_o soberness_n and_o modesty_n and_o then_o in_o the_o end_n god_n will_v make_v we_o to_o know_v that_o which_o be_v hide_v from_o we_o as_o now_o let_v we_o come_v to_o that_o which_o job_n add_v he_o say_v that_o his_o day_n be_v go_v away_o more_o swift_o than_o a_o post_n or_o a_o ship_n under_o sail_n therefore_o be_v also_o fly_v and_o this_o word_n be_v set_v down_o too_o express_v the_o better_a that_o job_n speak_v not_o of_o some_o great_a ship_n that_o be_v full_o fraught_v but_o of_o some_o little_a pinnace_n that_o may_v serve_v to_o make_v sport_n and_o pastime_n upon_o the_o water_n which_o turn_v nimble_o here_o and_o there_o and_o go_v away_o apace_o therefore_o he_o liken_v his_o life_n to_o a_o little_a pinnace_n that_o be_v light_a and_o glide_v swift_o upon_o the_o water_n and_o there_o withal_o he_o compare_v it_o also_o to_o a_o post_n and_o final_o to_o a_o eagle_n that_o sore_v in_o the_o air_n to_o seek_v she_o pray_v here_o job_n show_v how_o sore_o he_o be_v carry_v away_o in_o all_o his_o passion_n and_o it_o please_v the_o holy_a ghost_n that_o this_o precedent_n shall_v be_v give_v we_o to_o the_o intent_n that_o every_o of_o we_o shall_v in_o the_o person_n of_o job_n behold_v what_o may_v happen_v to_o himself_o then_o how_o fare_v we_o when_o god_n scourge_v we_o lo_o here_o a_o temptation_n to_o drive_v we_o to_o despair_n which_o be_v when_o we_o forget_v all_o the_o gracious_a goodness_n that_o god_n have_v do_v for_o we_o if_o we_o can_v bethink_v we_o of_o the_o benefit_n that_o we_o have_v receive_v at_o god_n hand_n as_o we_o have_v see_v job_n say_v heretofore_o it_o be_v certain_a that_o the_o same_o will_v make_v we_o to_o forget_v all_o our_o sorrow_n well_o
a_o outcast_n in_o the_o world_n be_v nevertheless_o deliver_v from_o vexation_n and_o trouble_n the_o same_o must_v needs_o proceed_v of_o god_n yea_o i_o say_v it_o must_v needs_o be_v father_v upon_o god_n for_o if_o we_o have_v no_o stay_n in_o the_o world_n and_o yet_o have_v strong_a and_o mighty_a enemy_n what_o be_v to_o be_v say_v but_o that_o we_o be_v undo_v and_o that_o there_o be_v no_o more_o hope_n of_o our_o life_n then_o if_o we_o recover_v it_o be_v manifest_a that_o god_n work_v in_o that_o behalf_n so_o it_o be_v not_o without_o cause_n that_o eliu_n do_v purposely_o set_v down_o this_o say_n for_o a_o proof_n that_o god_n govern_v all_o thing_n here_o beneath_o also_o he_o set_v down_o a_o second_o example_n of_o god_n providence_n namely_o the_o government_n of_o prince_n and_o of_o man_n that_o sit_v in_o the_o seat_n of_o justice_n wherein_o we_o perceive_v that_o god_n be_v righteous_a and_o that_o he_o will_v not_o have_v thing_n to_o be_v out_o of_o order_n and_o although_o there_o be_v not_o a_o continual_a rate_n even_o keep_v at_o all_o time_n as_o be_v declare_v yesterday_o yet_o notwithstanding_o when_o we_o see_v that_o there_o be_v any_o order_n in_o the_o world_n therein_o we_o may_v see_v as_o it_o be_v in_o a_o glass_n that_o god_n have_v not_o so_o let_v loose_a the_o reins_n to_o all_o confusion_n but_o that_o he_o do_v still_o show_v we_o some_o sign_n and_o token_n of_o his_o justice_n and_o undoubted_o if_o a_o man_n consider_v on_o the_o one_o side_n what_o the_o nature_n of_o man_n be_v and_o on_o the_o other_o side_n after_o what_o manner_n the_o governor_n and_o magistrate_n and_o such_o as_o have_v the_o sword_n of_o justice_n in_o their_o hand_n do_v discharge_v themselves_o he_o shall_v see_v and_o easy_o discern_v it_o to_o be_v a_o miracle_n of_o god_n that_o there_o be_v any_o common_a weal_n amongst_o we_o yea_o and_o we_o must_v needs_o know_v it_o and_o perceive_v it_o i_o say_v that_o the_o nature_n of_o man_n be_v such_o that_o every_o man_n will_v be_v a_o lord_n and_o master_n over_o his_o neighbour_n and_o noman_n by_o his_o good_a will_n will_v be_v a_o subject_n see_v then_o that_o our_o lord_n suffer_v not_o the_o strong_a to_o prevail_v but_o that_o there_o be_v some_o fear_n and_o obedience_n towards_o those_o that_o be_v in_o pre-eminence_n therein_o it_o be_v to_o be_v see_v that_o god_n do_v not_o only_o bridle_v but_o also_o fetter_v man_n nature_n to_o the_o end_n that_o the_o say_a pride_n advance_v not_o itself_o so_o high_a but_o that_o public_a government_n shall_v be_v above_o it_o and_o again_o we_o see_v that_o all_o man_n be_v give_v too_o evil_a and_o their_o juste_n be_v so_o boil_v that_o every_o man_n will_v have_v liberty_n to_o do_v as_o he_o listen_v and_o no_o man_n be_v under_o correction_n therefore_o it_o be_v too_o be_v conclude_v that_o the_o state_n of_o government_n come_v of_o god_n and_o that_o therein_o he_o show_v that_o his_o create_v of_o man_n be_v to_o the_o end_n they_o shall_v behave_v themselves_o honest_o and_o modest_o and_o for_o the_o second_o point_n we_o see_v how_o king_n and_o prince_n and_o such_o as_o be_v of_o mean_a state_n behave_v themselves_o when_o god_n have_v arm_v they_o with_o the_o sword_n of_o justice_n and_o how_o they_o turn_v all_o thing_n upside_o down_o in_o somuch_o that_o it_o seem_v that_o they_o intend_v to_o spite_n god_n and_o too_o disannul_v his_o ordinance_n now_o if_o they_o which_o ought_v to_o maintain_v peaceable_o the_o order_n that_o god_n have_v set_v enforce_v themselves_o too_o overthrow_v it_o and_o fight_v as_o it_o be_v of_o set_a purpose_n to_o bring_v thing_n to_o confuzion_n and_o yet_o for_o all_o that_o the_o state_n of_o government_n continue_v still_o in_o the_o world_n and_o thing_n be_v not_o so_o utter_o confound_v but_o that_o there_o abide_v still_o some_o mark_n of_o the_o thing_n that_o god_n have_v establish_v be_v it_o not_o too_o be_v see_v therein_o that_o god_n be_v double_a righteous_a and_o therefore_o it_o be_v not_o without_o cause_n that_o eliu_n after_o he_o have_v speak_v of_o the_o succor_n of_o the_o poor_a by_o god_n add_v immediate_o one_o other_o kind_n namely_o that_o god_n stablish_v king_n and_o that_o not_o for_o one_o day_n but_o too_o the_o intent_n that_o the_o same_o order_n shall_v stand_v for_o ever_o in_o the_o world_n true_a it_o be_v that_o there_o be_v many_o change_n off_o and_o on_o and_o that_o there_o fall_v great_a alteration_n upon_o principality_n and_o lordship_n and_o therein_o god_n show_v also_o that_o it_o be_v his_o office_n too_o pull_v down_o the_o proud_a but_o yet_o nevertheless_o even_o in_o despite_n of_o man_n and_o of_o all_o their_o rage_n there_o shall_v some_o order_n remain_v still_o here_o below_o i_o say_v even_o in_o respect_n of_o tyrant_n if_o a_o king_n reign_v wrongful_o so_o as_o he_o be_v a_o despiser_n of_o god_n and_o full_a of_o cruelty_n outrage_n and_o unsatiable_a covetousness_n yet_o notwithstanding_o he_o must_v be_v fain_o too_o keep_v some_o shadow_n and_o countenance_n of_o justice_n and_o he_o can_v go_v beyond_o it_o whereof_o come_v that_o but_o because_o god_n show_v himself_o there_o and_o therefore_o let_v we_o learn_v to_o profit_v ourselves_o in_o such_o wise_a by_o the_o thing_n that_o be_v see_v in_o this_o world_n as_o god_n may_v be_v glorify_v at_o our_o hand_n as_o he_o deserve_v and_o special_o when_o we_o see_v he_o deliver_v the_o poor_a that_o be_v utter_o oppress_v &_o neither_o have_v nor_o hope_v for_o any_o succour_n at_o man_n hand_n let_v we_o there_o consider_v his_o mighty_a power_n and_o goodness_n and_o dispose_v ourselves_o too_o yield_v he_o his_o due_a prayze_n this_o say_v i_o be_v the_o thing_n that_o we_o have_v to_o note_v howbeit_o herewithal_o to_o the_o intent_n to_o prove_v ourselves_o to_o be_v god_n child_n let_v we_o beware_v that_o we_o lend_v our_o help_a hand_n to_o such_o as_o be_v wrongful_o persecute_v &_o that_o according_a to_o the_o ability_n which_o god_n give_v we_o we_o do_v succour_v such_o as_o be_v tread_v under_o foot_n &_o have_v no_o mean_n to_o revenge_v or_o bear_v out_o themselves_o we_o must_v i_o say_v do_v our_o endeavour_n in_o that_o behalf_n and_o strain_v ourselves_o too_o it_o in_o good_a earnest_n second_o sith_o we_o see_v governor_n and_o man_n of_o authority_n so_o froward_a and_o spiteful_a and_o yet_o notwithstanding_o that_o god_n suffer_v they_o not_o to_o fall_v quite_o out_o into_o all_o disorder_n there_o let_v we_o humble_v ourselves_o to_o honour_v his_o providence_n assure_v ourselves_o that_o if_o he_o restrain_v not_o their_o wickedness_n we_o shall_v be_v overwhelm_v with_o a_o horrible_a flood_n and_o all_o shall_v be_v swallow_v up_o and_o drown_v out_o of_o hand_n therefore_o it_o behove_v we_o to_o magnify_v god_n in_o that_o we_o see_v there_o remain_v some_o justice_n &_o good_a

of_o god_n also_o it_o be_v say_v that_o god_n make_v the_o cloud_n to_o labour_n to_o moisten_v the_o earth_n ▪_o namely_o as_o though_o they_o clyve_v asunder_o and_o empty_v themselves_o that_o

afore_o say_v behold_v i_o pray_v you_o such_o a_o man_n think_v himself_o very_o wise_a and_o of_o great_a skill_n but_o i_o like_v not_o of_o he_o and_o i_o marvel_v how_o man_n can_v suffer_v he_o to_o talk_v after_o that_o fashion_n after_o the_o same_o manner_n deal_v we_o with_o god_n for_o we_o be_v not_o so_o hardy_a as_o to_o speak_v open_o against_o he_o and_o in_o very_a deed_n nature_n

when_o the_o sun_n shine_v as_o a_o mortal_a man_n do_v for_o if_o a_o man_n walk_v at_o high_a nonedaye_n he_o see_v his_o way_n and_o when_o he_o give_v himself_o to_o the_o do_v of_o any_o thing_n

they_o have_v not_o consider_v how_o great_a and_o incomprehensible_a his_o work_n be_v but_o if_o the_o work_n of_o god_n be_v incomprehensible_a have_v we_o a_o measure_n that_o be_v great_a

pray_v you_o can_v we_o attain_v thereunto_o we_o see_v then_o how_o man_n be_v worse_o than_o mad_a when_o they_o be_v so_o presumptuous_a as_o too_o desire_v to_o determine_v of_o god_n work_n which_o be_v imcomprehensible_a for_o true_a it_o be_v that_o we_o can_v gage_v the_o bottom_n of_o god_n work_n too_o comprehend_v the_o reason_n of_o they_o but_o yet_o god_n keep_v a_o good_a way_n too_o give_v we_o such_o a_o knowledge_n of_o they_o as_o he_o know_v too_o be_v for_o our_o behoof_n and_o so_o we_o note_v that_o god_n work_n be_v incomprehensible_a in_o themselves_o that_o be_v to_o say_v that_o if_o we_o will_v search_v out_o all_o that_o ever_o be_v in_o they_o by_o parcelmeale_n we_o shall_v never_o be_v able_a to_o attain_v to_o the_o depth_n of_o they_o therefore_o we_o

too_o enter_v so_o into_o god_n secret_n as_o to_o read_v therein_o and_o that_o we_o will_v not_o have_v any_o thing_n too_o escape_v we_o but_o be_v so_o fond_a and_o curious_a as_o to_o have_v a_o

therefore_o if_o god_n scourge_v we_o and_o send_v we_o affliction_n we_o must_v blame_v our_o sin_n for_o it_o thus_o you_o see_v in_o effect_n what_o we_o have_v too_o make_v here_o and_o moreover_o that_o which_o he_o add_v serve_v yet_o further_o to_o confirm_v this_o present_a matter_n that_o be_v to_o wit_n that_o if_o our_o beginning_n be_v small_a god_n will_v increase_v the_o more_o and_o

if_o our_o affection_n be_v unbridled_a and_o unruly_a and_o serve_v to_o kindle_v we_o and_o to_o spur_v we_o forward_o against_o god_n so_o as_o we_o be_v full_a of_o bitterness_n then_o must_v it_o needs_o follow_v that_o we_o be_v possess_v with_o fury_n as_o i_o have_v say_v already_o see_v we_o come_v to_o justle_v after_o that_o sort_n against_o god_n and_o dare_v the_o creature_n do_v so_o if_o he_o be_v not_o bereave_v of_o his_o right_a wit_n and_o reason_n no_o sure_o dare_v he_o not_o then_o see_v you_o a_o text_n which_o we_o ought_v to_o mark_v well_o for_o although_o bildad_n do_v misapply_v it_o to_o the_o person_n of_o job_n yet_o be_v the_o sentence_n true_a in_o itself_o and_o aught_o to_o serve_v our_o turn_n in_o asmuch_o as_o we_o see_v that_o impatiency_n be_v a_o kind_n of_o madness_n in_o a_o man_n and_o what_o be_v mean_v by_o impatiency_n it_o be_v not_o simple_o a_o grief_n conceive_v of_o the_o mislike_v of_o our_o adversity_n when_o we_o be_v weary_a of_o they_o but_o it_o be_v a_o excessive_a heartburning_n or_o stomake_v against_o they_o when_o we_o can_v submit_v ourselves_o simple_o unto_o god_n too_o dispose_v of_o we_o at_o his_o pleasure_n therefore_o if_o our_o passion_n be_v so_o unruly_a as_o we_o can_v not_o keep_v any_o measure_n in_o our_o adversity_n then_o do_v impatiency_n overmaster_n we_o and_o if_o we_o have_v no_o hold_n nor_o stay_v of_o ourselves_o we_o must_v needs_o conclude_v that_o we_o be_v no_o better_a than_o fantic_a folk_n against_o god_n yea_o &_o utter_o out_o of_o our_o wit_n true_a it_o be_v that_o we_o will_v not_o confess_v it_o to_o be_v so_o but_o for_o so_o much_o as_o the_o holy_a ghost_n have_v avouch_v it_o will_v we_o have_v a_o more_o competent_a judge_n and_o if_o we_o look_v well_o into_o

agree_v thereunto_o but_o if_o a_o man_n have_v need_n of_o wisdom_n let_v he_o resort_v unto_o god_n as_o if_o he_o shall_v say_v it_o be_v true_a that_o man_n mind_n will_v never_o think_v that_o all_o temptation_n and_o adversity_n be_v benefit_n of_o god_n procurement_n towards_o we_o &_o the_o fault_n be_v because_o we_o be_v misadvise_a &_o know_v not_o what_o be_v expedient_a for_o we_o what_o be_v to_o be_v do_v then_o for_o asmuch_o as_o we_o want_v wisdom_n special_o when_o our_o passion_n overmaster_v we_o &_o trouble_v our_o mind_n let_v we_o repair_v unto_o god_n for_o he_o

our_o affection_n that_o we_o be_v not_o in_o to_o great_a a_o choler_n when_o god_n afflict_v we_o assure_v ourselves_o that_o if_o we_o take_v it_o patient_o god_n will_v turn_v all_o to_o our_o

let_v we_o mark_v that_o god_n do_v erewhiles_o for_o a_o time_n bereave_v the_o faithful_a of_o the_o benefit_n that_o he_o have_v promise_v they_o to_o the_o intent_n they_o shall_v be_v provoke_v

for_o the_o offence_n that_o he_o have_v commit_v not_o that_o god_n find_v not_o enough_o in_o he_o wherefore_o to_o punish_v he_o but_o as_o i_o have_v declare_v heretofore_o because_o he_o have_v not_o that_o respect_n only_o but_o rather_o meent_n to_o try_v his_o patience_n but_o as_o for_o we_o if_o he_o deprive_v we_o of_o the_o blissing_n that_o he_o have_v promise_v we_o it_o be_v for_o that_o we_o have_v offend_v he_o and_o be_v not_o worthy_a too_o enjoy_v they_o or_o else_o it_o be_v a_o dash_n with_o the_o spur_n which_o he_o give_v we_o to_o make_v we_o pray_v unto_o he_o the_o more_o earnest_o thus_o do_v god_n promise_v his_o faithful_a that_o he_o will_v guide_v they_o in_o their_o way_n yea_o &_o that_o he_o will_v lend_v they_o his_o angel_n to_o be_v their_o guide_n so_o as_o they_o shall_v not_o step_v one_o pace_n awry_o nor_o be_v encounter_v with_o any_o evil_n this_o be_v a_o goodly_a promise_n but_o yet_o notwithstanding_o it_o will_v seem_v unto_o we_o that_o our_o way_n be_v shut_v up_o that_o there_o be_v nothing_o but_o bramble_n &_o bush_n afore_o we_o &_o that_o there_o be_v nothing_o but_o mountain_n &_o rock_n round_o about_o we_o thus_o be_v we_o enclose_v &_o no_o likelihood_n of_o possibility_n to_o get_v out_o what_o have_v we_o to_o do_v in_o this_o case_n but_o only_o to_o say_v alas_o i_o be_o not_o worthy_a that_o god_n shall_v

i_o therefore_o it_o behove_v i_o to_o pray_v he_o to_o vouchsafe_v to_o show_v the_o performance_n of_o the_o promise_n towards_o i_o thus_o be_v we_o by_o such_o mean_v stir_v up_o to_o call_v

thus_o you_o see_v in_o effect_n what_o we_o have_v to_o mark_v in_o this_o sentence_n now_o job_n add_v that_o god_n have_v bereave_v he_o of_o his_o glory_n and_o pluck_v the_o crown_n from_o his_o

before_o he_o all_o his_o good_n have_v be_v take_v away_o and_o destroy_v and_o his_o body_n be_v become_v a_o rot_a carcase_n therefore_o it_o be_v not_o causeless_a that_o he_o say_v that_o god_n

thereby_o declare_v his_o love_n that_o he_o bear_v we_o let_v we_o learn_v then_o that_o when_o god_n punish_v the_o sin_n of_o the_o wicked_a we_o have_v matter_n to_o rejoice_v at_o yea_o but_o we_o must_v know_v wherefore_o there_o be_v two_o cause_n we_o have_v cause_n to_o rejoice_v for_o that_o god_n thereby_o declare_v himself_o to_o be_v a_o judge_n and_o his_o glory_n and_o his_o

to_o glorify_v he_o it_o behove_v we_o to_o rejoice_v at_o it_o for_o what_o great_a joy_n can_v we_o require_v than_o the_o presence_n of_o our_o god_n and_o that_o he_o shall_v thus_o draw_v near_o

be_v again_o a_o second_o cause_n of_o joy_n but_o yet_o we_o must_v as_o i_o have_v say_v be_v clean_o purge_v of_o all_o desire_n of_o vengeance_n and_o of_o all_o malice_n to_o be_v short_a when_o

here_o be_v no_o mention_n make_v but_o of_o the_o reprobate_n we_o know_v not_o who_o god_n have_v utter_o
therefore_o we_o must_v not_o enclose_v god_n mighty_a power_n within_o our_o imagination_n &_o understanding_n like_a as_o god_n goodness_n be_v endless_a and_o a_o bottomless_a pit_n so_o also_o

therewithal_o desire_v no_o more_o but_o to_o have_v audience_n before_o who_o not_o before_o man_n only_o but_o that_o god_n shall_v answer_v he_o that_o be_v to_o say_v that_o god_n shall_v make_v his_o righteousness_n to_o be_v know_v and_o then_o will_v he_o maintain_v that_o his_o suffering_n be_v not_o for_o his_o sin_n namely_o if_o the_o thing_n may_v be_v thorough_o consider_v and_o that_o god_n will_v pronounce_v sentence_n as_o by_o way_n of_o ordinary_a process_n and_o not_o by_o prerogative_n of_o his_o high_a and_o secret_a power_n so_o as_o man_n may_v not_o know_v why_o he_o work_v after_o that_o manner_n and_o we_o have_v see_v heretofore_o that_o it_o be_v not_o without_o cause_n that_o job_n shall_v make_v that_o wish_n and_o why_o for_o diverse_a time_n god_n chastice_v we_o according_a too_o the_o threaten_n that_o be_v set_v down_o in_o his_o law_n that_o be_v to_o wit_n that_o when_o we_o be_v punish_v it_o be_v by_o reason_n of_o our_o sin_n and_o that_o be_v the_o most_o ordinary_a manner_n you_o see_v that_o god_n suffer_v not_o our_o misdeed_n unpunished_a and_o after_o he_o have_v give_v we_o a_o rule_n whereby_o to_o live_v well_o he_o add_v threaten_n say_v if_o you_o break_v my_o commandment_n i_o will_v punish_v you_o with_o war_n pestilence_n and_o famine_n with_o sickness_n poverty_n and_o diverse_a other_o thing_n well_o then_o if_o we_o be_v beat_v with_o god_n rod_n it_o behove_v we_o to_o lay_v our_o life_n too_o his_o law_n and_o if_o we_o find_v ourselves_o to_o have_v do_v amiss_o there_o our_o indictment_n be_v thorough_o frame_v and_o our_o judgement_n already_o give_v upon_o we_o and_o there_o remain_v nothing_o but_o execution_n thus_o you_o see_v the_o ordinary_a manner_n that_o god_n use_v in_o chastise_v man_n but_o in_o job_n he_o have_v a_o other_o respect_n for_o he_o punish_v not_o he_o for_o his_o sin_n not_o that_o he_o deserve_v it_o not_o for_o there_o be_v no_o creature_n so_o righteous_a that_o can_v exempt_v himself_o from_o god_n correction_n but_o yet_o for_o all_o that_o as_o i_o have_v declare_v afore_o god_n have_v not_o a_o respect_n to_o job_n offence_n he_o punish_v he_o not_o in_o that_o measure_n by_o reason_n of_o his_o misdeed_n but_o to_o try_v the_o faith_n and_o patience_n of_o his_o servant_n and_o also_o to_o make_v he_o a_o example_n to_o all_o the_o world_n in_o the_o mean_a while_n job_n have_v his_o mouth_n shut_v so_o as_o he_o wist_v not_o what_o to_o say_v and_o therefore_o it_o behove_v we_o not_o to_o inquire_v any_o other_o cause_n why_o he_o be_v handle_v so_o rough_o it_o be_v a_o secret_a unknown_a to_o man_n then_o be_v it_o not_o without_o cause_n that_o job_n desire_v god_n to_o answer_v he_o that_o be_v to_o say_v too_o enter_v into_o plea_n with_o he_o and_o to_o suffer_v he_o to_o maintain_v his_o own_o soundness_n and_o to_o let_v he_o know_v why_o he_o endure_v such_o torment_n but_o herewithal_o let_v we_o mark_v that_o it_o be_v not_o lawful_a for_o man_n too_o challenge_n god_n after_o that_o sort_n for_o it_o be_v good_a reason_n that_o he_o shall_v handle_v we_o after_o his_o own_o pleasure_n and_o that_o we_o shall_v stoop_v to_o he_o although_o the_o cause_n of_o his_o judgement_n be_v not_o apparent_a unto_o we_o then_o if_o it_o please_v god_n to_o visit_v we_o with_o rigour_n and_o we_o see_v not_o why_o he_o do_v it_o yet_o must_v we_o keep_v our_o mouth_n shut_v that_o we_o murmur_v not_o against_o he_o and_o nevertheless_o have_v it_o open_v still_o too_o glorify_v he_o confess_v that_o although_o his_o judgement_n be_v a_o bottomless_a deep_a yet_o they_o cease_v not_o to_o be_v just_a and_o rightful_a thus_o you_o see_v what_o we_o have_v to_o note_v for_o in_o good_a faith_n there_o be_v not_o a_o more_o terrible_a thing_n than_o if_o god_n shall_v enter_v into_o law_n with_o we_o if_o he_o set_v himselse_a against_o we_o alas_o what_o shall_v become_v of_o we_o then_o if_o we_o fall_v too_o provoke_v of_o he_o and_o desire_v too_o go_v too_o law_n with_o he_o be_v not_o to_o our_o great_a confusion_n and_o this_o doctrine_n be_v well_o worthy_a to_o be_v note_v for_o we_o see_v how_o man_n do_v daily_o fall_v to_o murmur_v and_o grudge_v in_o themselves_o and_o what_o else_o be_v that_o but_o to_o provoke_v god_n and_o to_o desire_v to_o go_v to_o

that_o they_o will_v have_v god_n to_o be_v against_o they_o but_o in_o the_o mean_a while_n that_o be_v the_o mark_n which_o they_o shoot_v at_o for_o if_o a_o man_n be_v impatient_a in_o his_o affliction_n and_o hold_v not_o himself_o in_o quiet_a by_o yield_v to_o god_n good_a will_v too_o take_v correction_n at_o his_o hand_n i_o pray_v you_o do_v he_o not_o lift_v up_o himself_o to_o the_o intent_n that_o god_n be_v so_o provoke_v to_o wrath_n shall_v maintain_v his_o own_o right_a let_v we_o keep_v ourselves_o from_o quarrel_v with_o god_n when_o he_o strike_v we_o with_o his_o

the_o reason_n thereof_o be_v hide_v from_o we_o for_o a_o time_n sure_o we_o ought_v too_o desire_v earnest_o that_o it_o may_v please_v god_n to_o show_v we_o why_o he_o scourge_v we_o howbeit_o that_o must_v not_o be_v do_v to_o any_o other_o end_n than_o too_o profit_n ourselves_o by_o his_o correction_n and_o to_o apply_v our_o chastisement_n to_o our_o instruction_n when_o we_o know_v the_o cause_n of_o they_o therefore_o when_o every_o of_o we_o feel_v his_o own_o sin_n be_v sorry_a that_o he_o have_v offend_v god_n and_o ashamed_a of_o his_o own_o lewdness_n and_o thereupon_o

unto_o that_o which_o i_o have_v declare_v already_o namely_o that_o god_n be_v righteous_a in_o all_o respect_n and_o therefore_o that_o although_o we_o know_v not_o the_o cause_n why_o he_o

and_o protest_v that_o he_o hide_v not_o his_o fault_n as_o man_n be_v wont_v to_o do_v and_o according_a as_o we_o see_v man_n hypocrisy_n to_o be_v such_o as_o every_o man_n will_v fain_o hide_v

although_o god_n handle_v he_o rough_o yet_o follow_v it_o not_o that_o he_o do_v it_o for_o any_o heinous_a fault_n of_o he_o but_o for_o some_o other_o secret_a cause_n we_o see_v then_o in_o

that_o there_o be_v a_o mean_a for_o we_o to_o maintain_v a_o good_a case_n we_o know_v that_o they_o which_o be_v most_o faulty_a be_v by_o their_o good_a will_n most_o bold_a to_o justify_v

too_o be_v wretched_a sinner_n thereupon_o we_o see_v that_o if_o a_o man_n go_v about_o to_o justify_v himself_o without_o exception_n he_o undertake_v war_n against_o god_n for_o whosoever_o say_v that_o he_o be_v no_o sinner_n intend_v to_o make_v god_n a_o liar_n as_o say_v s._n john_n in_o his_o canonical_a epistle_n god_n have_v pronounce_v one_o general_a sentence_n upon_o we_o all_o and_o

if_o we_o be_v repronved_a for_o any_o thing_n and_o feel_v our_o self_n guilty_a let_v we_o cast_v down_o our_o head_n and_o acknowledge_v ourselves_o to_o have_v deserve_v that_o god_n shall_v put_v

if_o man_n reprove_v we_o and_o will_v through_o rashness_n bear_v we_o down_o that_o we_o be_v offender_n whereas_o we_o know_v the_o contrary_a it_o be_v hypocrisy_n for_o we_o to_o grant_v that_o

be_v that_o the_o answer_n where_o of_o job_n speak_v be_v mean_v as_o i_o have_v declare_v that_o be_v to_o wit_n that_o god_n shall_v as_o it_o be_v enter_v a_o ordinary_a process_n against_o he_o and_o show_v the_o cause_n why_o he_o scourge●_n he_o but_o yet_o therewithal_o job_n pretend_v that_o if_o god_n will_v give_v he_o liberty_n to_o maintain_v his_o case_n all_o will_v make_v on_o

and_o we_o receive_v sentence_n of_o discharge_n at_o his_o hand_n and_o will_v god_n that_o this_o be_v well_o print_v in_o our_o heart_n for_o we_o see_v nowadays_o that_o all_o be_v one_o with_o we_o so_o we_o may_v be_v release_v before_o the_o world_n we_o seek_v nothing_o but_o that_o and_o so_o be_v god_n despise_v for_o there_o be_v none_o of_o we_o which_o think_v that_o ever_o he_o shall_v render_v a_o account_n before_o he_o but_o we_o look_v that_o no_o man_n may_v bite_v we_o and_o that_o if_o any_o man_n come_v to_o assail_v we_o we_o may_v have_v wherewith_o to_o keep_v he_o off_o therefore_o when_o we_o be_v so_o escape_v from_o the_o world_n we_o think_v all_o be_v safe_a and_o so_o in_o the_o mean_a while_n that_o be_v the_o thing_n which_o make_v we_o bold_a to_o

shall_v soothe_v we_o and_o god_n allow_v we_o not_o and_o therefore_o above_o all_o thing_n let_v every_o man_n examine_v himself_o what_o he_o be_v and_o let_v not_o that_o be_v do_v after_o his_o

they_o have_v a_o sufficient_a doctrine_n to_o lead_v they_o to_o god_n and_o to_o convince_v the_o world_n of_o the_o wilfulness_n and_o ignorance_n that_o be_v in_o it_o thus_o you_o see_v what_o

god_n then_o have_v leave_v these_o trace_n and_o crank_n in_o the_o heart_n of_o the_o ignorant_a to_o the_o end_n that_o man_n may_v not_o cover_v themselves_o with_o any_o excuse_n but_o be_v condemn_v by_o the_o indictment_n that_o be_v lay_v up_o within_o themselves_o and_o by_o the_o way_n let_v we_o mark_v that_o it_o be_v foolish_o do_v of_o man_n to_o fight_v against_o god_n in_o maintenance_n of_o the_o doctrine_n which_o have_v reign_v among_o they_o for_o see_v that_o the_o knowledge_n of_o god_n have_v shine_v so_o clear_o in_o the_o world_n as_o all_o man_n may_v be_v enlighten_v by_o it_o as_o we_o have_v see_v afore_o how_o be_v it_o possible_a that_o they_o shall_v give_v over_o themselves_o to_o so_o gross_a a_o beastliness_n as_o to_o worship_v stock_n and_o stone_n to_o honour_v the_o sun_n and_o moon_n to_o make_v puppet_n and_o quite_o and_o clean_o to_o forget_v the_o live_a god_n how_o can_v this_o come_v to_o pass_v for_o it_o be_v all_o one_o as_o if_o a_o man_n shall_v wilful_o run_v headlong_o against_o a_o thing_n at_o high_a noon_n or_o like_o the_o stumble_n of_o a_o drunken_a man_n that_o reel_v aside_o though_o he_o see_v the_o right_a

it_o warn_v we_o to_o be_v the_o more_o ware_n in_o walk_v while_o we_o have_v the_o light_n with_o we_o i_o have_v say_v already_o that_o if_o god_n be_v so_o gracious_a to_o we_o as_o to_o show_v

let_v we_o mark_v that_o it_o be_v not_o blame_v here_o as_o a_o inordinate_a passion_n but_o it_o be_v a_o good_a and_o allowable_a mislike_v because_o it_o proceed_v of_o a_o zeal_n that_o eliu_n have_v towards_o god_n truth_n when_o he_o see_v job_n justify_v himself_o in_o such_o wise_a as_o be_v esteem_v himself_o more_o righteous_a than_o god._n job_n friend_n have_v not_o this_o

say_v he_o exceed_v measure_n and_o although_o his_o case_n be_v good_a yet_o do_v he_o handle_v it_o amiss_o and_o take_v a_o evil_a way_n with_o it_o eliu_o therefore_o mark_v job_n overshote_n of_o himself_o and_o his_o murmur_v now_o and_o then_o through_o impatiency_n and_o how_o that_o therein_o he_o go_v about_o to_o justify_v himself_o above_o god_n again_o he_o be_v angry_a at_o those_o that_o take_v upon_o they_o the_o evil_a case_n unadvised_o &_o be_v not_o able_a to_o compass_v it_o but_o be_v confound_v in_o it_o when_o it_o come_v to_o the_o pintche_n behold_v then_o how_o

he_o but_o by_o the_o way_n it_o behove_v we_o to_o mark_v this_o say_n that_o job_n intend_v to_o justify_v himself_o above_o god._n true_o his_o intent_n be_v not_o so_o and_o he_o will_v rather_o a_o hundred_o time_n that_o the_o earth_n have_v swallow_a he_o up_o or_o that_o he_o have_v never_o be_v bear_v into_o the_o world_n than_o to_o have_v think_v such_o a_o blasphemy_n and_o true_o i_o have_v tell_v you_o that_o as_o often_o as_o he_o overshoot_v himself_o it_o be_v not_o to_o conclude_v full_o so_o but_o it_o be_v through_o the_o rage_a of_o his_o passion_n according_a as_o it_o be_v very_o hard_a for_o man_n to_o stay_v themselves_o but_o that_o many_o passion_n shall_v oftentimes_o escape_v they_o you_o see_v in_o what_o case_n job_n be_v and_o how_o in_o the_o end_n he_o always_o condemn_v himself_o and_o when_o he_o have_v do_v amiss_o will_v not_o excuse_v it_o how_o be_v it_o say_v then_o that_o he_o intend_v to_o justify_v himself_o above_o god_n this_o say_n contain_v a_o good_a and_o very_a profitable_a doctrine_n for_o here_o we_o be_v teach_v that_o we_o may_v sometime_o happen_v to_o blaspheme_v god_n when_o we_o think_v not_o of_o it_o in_o what_o

to_o keep_v they_o from_o stumble_v into_o a_o deadly_a fall_n but_o that_o god_n do_v hold_v they_o back_o by_o affliction_n and_o so_o you_o see_v that_o the_o cause_n why_o w●e_n fall_v not_o into_o the_o grave_n be_v that_o god_n afflict_v we_o but_o therewithal_o eliu_n show_v we_o how_o harsh_a this_o medicine_n be_v in_o that_o he_o say_v that_o it_o consume_v our_o flesh_n so_o as_o we_o have_v no_o more_o the_o shape_n of_o man_n but_o be_v like_a unto_o dead_a man_n that_o be_v take_v out_o of_o the_o earth_n and_o our_o bone_n do_v clatter_n without_o and_o we_o can_v not_o so_o much_o as_o take_v breathe_v but_o be_v in_o continual_a torment_fw-mi so_o as_o we_o have_v no_o release_n but_o god_n persecute_v we_o with_o such_o extremity_n as_o we_o can_v no_o more_o thus_o he_o show_v that_o god_n can_v not_o at_o the_o first_o blow_n win_v that_o thing_n at_o man_n hand_n which_o be_v to_o be_v desire_v that_o be_v to_o wit_n that_o they_o shall_v know_v

if_o god_n grant_v they_o to_o live_v any_o time_n here_o they_o do_v but_o make_v a_o walk_n of_o it_o as_o it_o be_v say_v in_o the_o fourscore_o and_o ten_o psalm_n they_o must_v back_o again_o
