for_o a_o long_a time_n they_o seem_v to_o wash_v the_o aethiopian_a or_o the_o black_a moor_n the_o more_o they_o wash_v he_o the_o more_o they_o gall_v he_o and_o yet_o he_o be_v a_o aethiopian_a still_o but_o in_o the_o end_n the_o ark_n stand_v and_o dagon_n fall_v down_o and_o truth_n triumph_v over_o falsehood_n have_v get_v the_o victory_n and_o light_n chase_v away_o darkness_n with_o the_o brightness_n thereof_o why_o 8_o 1._o sam._n 5._o 8_o then_o do_v this_o darkness_n continue_v among_o we_o still_o to_o he_o that_o ask_v what_o scrpture_n have_v you_o against_o it_o it_o be_v sufficient_a to_o answer_v what_o scripture_n have_v you_o for_o it_o for_o if_o the_o word_n command_v it_o not_o god_n reject_v it_o and_o will_v say_v who_o have_v require_v these_o thing_n at_o your_o hand_n but_o what_o be_v this_o for_o every_o idle_a word_n you_o must_v give_v account_n as_o our_o saviour_n jesus_n christ_n say_v matth._n 12._o and_o whatsoever_o be_v not_o of_o faith_n be_v sin_n rom._n 14._o 23._o they_o ask_v what_o shall_v we_o not_o say_v god_n be_v with_o they_o why_o shall_v you_o why_o say_v they_o must_v we_o say_v nothing_o what_o if_o thou_o do_v not_o what_o say_v thou_o when_o thou_o mention_v the_o death_n of_o thy_o first_o father_n adam_n seth_n enos_n enoch_n noah_n do_v thou_o less_o love_v these_o not_o pray_v for_o they_o than_o thou_o do_v they_o for_o who_o thou_o say_v god_n be_v with_o they_o etc._n etc._n but_o thou_o have_v speech_n enough_o to_o use_v if_o thou_o will_v needs_o say_v somewhat_o and_o leave_v such_o superstitious_a and_o offensive_a sentence_n if_o he_o be_v a_o good_a man_n thou_o may_v say_v the_o lord_n be_v thank_v for_o his_o deliverance_n or_o the_o like_a but_o if_o he_o be_v not_o than_o thou_o may_v say_v god_n grant_v we_o may_v do_v better_a than_o he_o have_v do_v and_o that_o by_o his_o fall_n we_o may_v learn_v to_o rise_v from_o sin_n or_o some_o such_o thing_n whatsoever_o he_o be_v thou_o may_v say_v as_o david_n say_v of_o his_o child_n give_v a_o reason_n why_o he_o will_v not_o pray_v for_o he_o any_o long_o benig_v dead_a can_v i_o call_v he_o back_o again_o i_o shall_v go_v to_o he_o but_o he_o shall_v not_o return_v to_o i_o or_o any_o other_o word_n so_o they_o be_v wise_a and_o therefore_o not_o against_o the_o word_n what_o then_o be_v to_o be_v do_v as_o jacob_n say_v to_o his_o wife_n and_o child_n give_v i_o your_o idol_n that_o i_o may_v bury_v they_o so_o say_v i_o unto_o you_o give_v i_o your_o superstition_n that_o i_o may_v bury_v they_o that_o they_o may_v remain_v with_o you_o or_o in_o you_o no_o long_o to_o the_o dishonour_n of_o god_n offend_v of_o your_o weak_a brethren_n or_o to_o my_o grief_n for_o i_o be_o jealous_a over_o you_o and_o because_o you_o be_v i_o and_o i_o be_o you_o o_o that_o my_o voice_n be_v as_o the_o whirlwind_n to_o beat_v down_o root_n out_o and_o blow_v away_o all_o your_o superstition_n that_o they_o may_v no_o long_o reign_v among_o you_o or_o rather_o o_o that_o christ_n which_o be_v our_o light_n be_v come_v into_o we_o all_o and_o shine_v so_o bright_a that_o we_o be_v ashamed_a of_o all_o our_o darkness_n of_o all_o not_o of_o mind_n only_o but_o of_o will_n also_o and_o of_o work_n that_o we_o no_o long_o will_v walk_v in_o darkness_n for_o few_o have_v the_o will_n to_o walk_v according_a to_o the_o word_n either_o in_o darkness_n or_o light_n we_o can_v see_v to_o sin_n in_o the_o dark_a aswell_o as_o in_o the_o light_n and_o do_v rather_o because_o the_o light_n discover_v both_o the_o harlot_n and_o the_o thief_n so_o they_o be_v afraid_a of_o the_o light_n but_o assure_o be_v we_o where_o light_n be_v not_o christ_n be_v not_o for_o christ_n be_v light_a and_o let_v none_o be_v afraid_a to_o seek_v this_o light_n which_o be_v so_o good_a so_o excellent_a and_o so_o profitable_a for_o 1_o john_n 1_o us._n for_o it_o do_v not_o only_o descry_v itself_o but_o all_o other_o thing_n round_o about_o it_o therefore_o if_o thou_o have_v this_o light_n thy_o faith_n thy_o fear_n thy_o love_n will_v show_v itself_o and_o good_a thing_n can_v now_o hide_v themselves_o for_o he_o that_o be_v light_n do_v delight_n to_o please_v god_n in_o the_o light_n it_o be_v no_o marvel_n though_o a_o man_n stumble_v in_o the_o dark_a but_o he_o which_o stumble_v in_o the_o light_n be_v not_o very_o strong_a because_o he_o see_v his_o way_n before_o he_o once_o we_o stumble_v at_o every_o straw_n when_o we_o walk_v in_o darkness_n for_o then_o wrath_n have_v a_o fall_n pride_n have_v a_o fall_n lust_n have_v a_o fall_n drunkenness_n have_v a_o fall_n penury_n have_v a_o fall_n ignorance_n have_v a_o fall_n or_o if_o you_o will_v pride_n rose_n and_o we_o fall_v lust_n rise_v and_o we_o fall_v etc._n etc._n be_v egypt_n as_o light_v as_o goshen_n we_o shall_v have_v idolater_n as_o joyful_a as_o true_a worshipper_n but_o there_o be_v palpable_a darkness_n tedious_a fearful_a and_o of_o long_a continuance_n in_o egypt_n clear_a light_n only_o in_o goshen_n therefore_o fly_v egypt_n but_o if_o thou_o live_v in_o egypt_n that_o be_v walk_v in_o darkness_n or_o commit_v wickedness_n though_o thou_o sin_n in_o the_o dark_a the_o light_n will_v bewray_v thou_o and_o thy_o conscience_n will_v accuse_v thou_o and_o condemn_v thou_o for_o it_o therefore_o now_o give_v over_o darkness_n and_o arm_v thou_o with_o light_n for_o our_o life_n shine_v like_o the_o light_n therefore_o now_o we_o shall_v be_v israel_n for_o israel_n be_v revolt_v but_o many_o scroul_n may_v be_v write_v of_o our_o sin_n and_o thus_o the_o gentile_n be_v as_o gentile_n still_o he_o that_o believe_v not_o the_o word_n be_v a_o infidel_n he_o that_o believe_v not_o god_n be_v a_o

they_o will_v not_o leave_v riches_n for_o godliness_n what_o madness_n yea_o the_o jew_n never_o serve_v god_n at_o any_o time_n with_o such_o devotion_n as_o many_o do_v now_o their_o gold_n and_o their_o riches_n o_o intolerable_a wickedness_n for_o many_o there_o be_v that_o can_v be_v content_a never_o to_o die_v but_o live_v ever_o here_o with_o their_o riches_n and_o pleasure_n and_o be_v not_o the_o godly_a more_o despite_v for_o his_o godliness_n than_o the_o wicked_a for_o his_o wickedness_n be_v not_o the_o member_n of_o christ_n more_o hate_v and_o worse_o entertain_v by_o we_o than_o the_o limb_n of_o satan_n so_o dear_o every_o one_o love_n sin_n and_o draw_v sin_n upon_o sin_n till_o their_o be_v a_o chain_n of_o many_o link_n and_o monster_n therein_o draw_v most_o loathsome_a and_o though_o we_o of_o ourselves_o run_v swift_o to_o hell_n yet_o the_o most_o drive_v we_o to_o make_v we_o hie_v fast_o they_o come_v unto_o we_o and_o say_v your_o father_n love_v we_o well_o and_o say_v unto_o we_o if_o you_o will_v be_v fair_a you_o shall_v be_v wise_a if_o you_o will_v be_v drink_v you_o shall_v be_v rich_a etc._n etc._n yea_o every_o one_o point_v and_o shw_v we_o the_o way_n that_o lead_v to_o destruction_n and_o how_o few_o be_v the_o number_n of_o they_o that_o do_v show_v we_o the_o way_n of_o virtue_n and_o golidnesse_n and_o thus_o we_o be_v even_o as_o froward_a as_o those_o jew_n that_o strive_v who_o shall_v come_v into_o hell_n first_o who_o do_v ever_o thank_v god_n that_o he_o be_v not_o bear_v a_o hundred_o year_n ago_o when_o ignorance_n spread_v over_o all_o and_o all_o egypt_n be_v smite_v with_o darkness_n or_o that_o the_o lord_n have_v nor_o left_a he_o to_o himself_o to_o become_v a_o atheist_n or_o a_o epicure_n which_o live_v without_o god_n in_o the_o world_n we_o have_v all_o god_n gift_n offer_v we_o but_o we_o have_v refuse_v they_o christ_n bring_v light_n but_o we_o have_v rather_o he_o have_v bring_v
