beautiful_a face_n then_o at_o a_o reform_a and_o holy_a affection_n for_o this_o be_v that_o moses_n here_o note_v in_o the_o prince_n and_o officer_n of_o pharaoh_n court._n and_o hereby_o it_o

obedient_a and_o faithful_a subject_n be_v in_o their_o land_n and_o that_o through_o their_o own_o default_n for_o this_o be_v the_o nature_n of_o such_o godless_a officer_n that_o they_o seek_v to_o feed_v the_o corruption_n of_o their_o prince_n rather_o than_o to_o remedy_v they_o and_o rather_o to_o increase_v they_o then_o by_o any_o mean_n to_o make_v they_o less_o for_o sure_o if_o they_o be_v as_o well_o move_v in_o the_o behalf_n of_o the_o faithful_a of_o the_o wise_a and_o of_o the_o learned_a as_o they_o be_v in_o the_o behalf_n of_o those_o that_o be_v proud_a and_o beautiful_a and_o atheist_n &_o such_o like_a they_o will_v sure_o receive_v such_o into_o their_o court_n aswell_o as_o other_o final_o in_o that_o pharaoh_n do_v not_o only_o take_v he_o up_o into_o his_o

naught_o in_o that_o respect_n that_o he_o do_v it_o even_o to_o stop_v up_o the_o mouth_n of_o abraham_n and_o to_o close_v up_o his_o eye_n and_o his_o ear_n that_o he_o shall_v not_o see_v with_o his_o eye_n nor_o hear_v with_o his_o ear_n nor_o speak_v of_o the_o lust_n and_o of_o the_o riot_n and_o wrong_n of_o the_o king_n wherein_o i_o note_v that_o it_o be_v the_o property_n of_o prince_n that_o be_v carnal_o mind_v to_o spare_v no_o cost_n upon_o those_o by_o who_o silence_n or_o by_o who_o speech_n their_o delight_n and_o lust_n may_v be_v further_v and_o nourish_v if_o a_o man_n will_v but_o let_v they_o sleep_v in_o their_o sin_n if_o he_o will_v but_o speak_v so_o soft_o so_o sly_o &_o so_o wary_o that_o his_o speech_n shall_v not_o a_o wake_v they_o but_o be_v unto_o

to_o slip_v and_o to_o offend_v his_o majesty_n for_o this_o seem_v to_o be_v a_o infirmity_n of_o abraham_n that_o he_o will_v conceal_v that_o part_n of_o truth_n which_o be_v most_o necassary_n and_o will_v rather_o hazard_v the_o chastity_n of_o his_o wife_n and_o the_o displeasure_n of_o god_n which_o he_o may_v provoke_v thereby_o than_o he_o will_v commit_v himself_o to_o the_o

his_o child_n not_o according_a to_o his_o profession_n but_o according_a to_o his_o faith_n this_o be_v that_o which_o be_v set_v down_o in_o the_o hundred_o and_o five_o psalm_n where_o speak_v of_o the_o covenaunt_n which_o god_n make_v unto_o abraham_n isaac_n and_o jacob_n he_o say_v the_o lord_n do_v defend_v they_o although_o they_o be_v few_o in_o number_n yea_o though_o they_o be_v very_o

but_o also_o prevent_v such_o as_o hereafter_o may_v be_v commit_v this_o be_v then_o the_o first_o instruction_n that_o we_o have_v here_o to_o learn_v a_o exceed_a great_a comfort_n unto_o all_o that_o walk_v in_o the_o step_n of_o the_o faith_n of_o abraham_n those_o that_o do_v they_o wrong_n they_o shall_v not_o escape_v free_a the_o hand_n of_o the_o lord_n will_v be_v upon_o they_o though_o they_o be_v never_o so_o strange_a and_o unknowen_a the_o lord_n will_v be_v unto_o they_o a_o friend_n a●d_v a_o father_n to_o defend_v they_o and_o to_o guard_v they_o and_o to_o restore_v their_o wrong_n upon_o their_o enemy_n second_o in_o that_o it_o be_v say_v that_o the_o lord_n do_v plague_n pharaoh_n with_o great_a plague_n because_o of_o sara_n abraham_n wife_n we_o do_v learn_v that_o the_o lord_n as_o he_o be_v a_o punisher_n of_o sin_n without_o respect_n of_o person_n so_o he_o be_v a_o particular_a judge_n of_o this_o sin_n of_o adultery_n
