be_v at_o liberty_n will_v not_o come_v near_o a_o man_n but_o when_o he_o be_v hot_o pursue_v with_o the_o dog_n he_o will_v run_v to_o he_o of_o his_o own_o accord_n for_o succour_n so_o it_o fare_v oftentimes_o with_o we_o when_o we_o be_v at_o ease_n and_o nothing_o do_v molest_v we_o we_o turn_v our_o back_n upon_o god_n but_o when_o we_o be_v bring_v into_o distress_n or_o danger_n we_o be_v

in_o the_o time_n of_o their_o bondage_n they_o sigh_v and_o cry_v 24_o exo._n 2_o 23_o 24_o and_o make_v their_o moan_n unto_o god._n and_o we_o read_v in_o many_o place_n of_o the_o book_n of_o

they_o cry_v unto_o he_o and_o david_n say_v of_o himself_o that_o although_o before_o while_o he_o think_v his_o mountain_n to_o be_v strong_a enough_o as_o we_o have_v hear_v he_o be_v foolish_a

his_o psalm_n be_v make_v when_o he_o be_v in_o affliction_n yea_o our_o saviour_n christ_n himself_o though_o all_o his_o life-time_n he_o be_v much_o conversant_a in_o prayer_n sometime_o rise_v early_o in_o the_o morning_n before_o day_n 1.35_o mar._n 1.35_o and_o sometime_o spend_v the_o whole_a night_n therein_o yet_o he_o never_o pray_v more_o earnest_o nor_o more_o fervent_o then_o immediate_o before_o his_o passion_n when_o as_o the_o apostle_n say_v 5.7_o heb._n 5.7_o he_o offer_v up_o prayer_n and_o supplication_n with_o strong_a cry_v and_o tear_n yea_o he_o be_v so_o

come_v we_o submit_v ourselves_o to_o the_o lord_n yoke_n the_o people_n of_o israel_n when_o the_o hand_n of_o god_n be_v upon_o they_o either_o by_o war_n or_o famine_n or_o any_o other_o calamity_n carry_v themselves_o very_o religious_o and_o walk_v in_o obedience_n unto_o his_o will_n but_o when_o god_n carry_v they_o up_o to_o the_o high_a place_n of_o the_o earth_n as_o moses_n say_v that_o

they_o be_v lade_v with_o fatness_n therefore_o they_o forsake_v god_n that_o make_v they_o and_o regard_v not_o the_o strong_a god_n of_o their_o salvation_n and_o this_o do_v david_n confess_v of_o himself_o when_o he_o say_v before_o i_o be_v afflict_v i_o go_v astray_o 119.67_o psal_n 119.67_o but_o now_o i_o keep_v thy_o word_n and_o the_o church_n acknowledge_v that_o before_o the_o lord_n
