they_o in_o their_o grete_a prosperity_n for_o the_o better_a understanding_n of_o this_o complain_v and_o of_o the_o mind_n of_o the_o prophet_n we_o must_v first_o observe_v from_o whence_o all_o

place_n it_o be_v evident_a that_o it_o be_v neither_o birth_n influence_n of_o star_n election_n of_o people_n force_n of_o arm_n not_o final_o what_o soever_o can_v be_v comprehend_v under_o the_o

only_a and_o perfect_a ordinance_n of_o god_n who_o will_v his_o power_n terror_n &_o majesty_n in_o a_o part_n to_o shine_v in_o the_o throne_n of_o king_n and_o in_o the_o face_n of_o his_o judge_n and_o that_o for_o the_o profit_n and_o comfort_n of_o man_n so_o that_o who_o soever_o will_v study_v to_o deface_v that_o order_n of_o regiment_n that_o god_n have_v establish_v and_o by_o his_o holy_a word_n allow_v and_o bring_v in_o such_o a_o confusion_n as_o no_o difference_n shall_v be_v betwixt_o the_o upper_a power_n and_o the_o subject_n do_v nothing_o but_o evert_v &_o turn_v

which_o be_v the_o second_o point_n we_o have_v to_o observe_v for_o the_o better_a understanding_n of_o the_o prophet_n word_n and_o mind_n the_o end_n and_o cause_n then_o why_o god_n prynt_v in_o the_o weak_a and_o feeble_a flesh_n of_o man_n this_o image_n of_o his_o own_o power_n &_o majesty_n be_v not_o to_o puff_n up_o flesh_n in_o opinion_n of_o itself_o neither_o yet_o that_o the_o heart_n of_o he_o that_o be_v exalt_v above_o other_o shall_v be_v lift_v up_o by_o presumption_n and_o pride_n and_o so_o despise_v other_o but_o that_o he_o shall_v consider_v that_o he_o be_v

well_o of_o which_o word_n it_o be_v evident_a that_o the_o sword_n of_o god_n be_v not_o commit_v to_o the_o hand_n of_o man_n to_o use_v as_o it_o please_v he_o but_o only_o to_o punish_v vice_n and_o maintain_v virtue_n that_o man_n may_v live_v in_o such_o society_n as_o before_o god_n be_v acceptable_a and_o this_o be_v the_o very_a and_o only_a cause_n why_o god_n have_v appoint_v power_n in_o this_o earth_n for_o such_o be_v the_o furious_a rage_n of_o man_n corrupt_a nature_n that_o unless_o severe_a punishment_n be_v appoint_v and_o put_v in_o execution_n upon_o malefactor_n
