although_o thing_n seem_v to_o be_v in_o quiet_a yet_o let_v we_o not_o cease_v to_o have_v a_o eye_n to_o his_o wrath_n for_o that_o be_v a_o thing_n wherein_o our_o faith_n must_v be_v exercise_v if_o our_o lord_n spare_v we_o and_o deal_v not_o rough_o with_o we_o as_o we_o deserve_v let_v we_o think_v alas_o yet_o have_v we_o offend_v our_o god_n exceed_o and_o thereby_o deserve_v well_o that_o he_o shall_v look_v stern_o upon_o we_o and_o yet_o notwithstanding_o he_o show_v himself_o to_o have_v pity_n upon_o we_o but_o yet_o must_v not_o that_o cause_n we_o to_o fall_v asleep_a the_o first_o thing_n then_o which_o we_o have_v to_o remember_v upon_o this_o place_n be_v that_o we_o must_v have_v a_o eye_n to_o god_n wrath_n a_o far_o off_o as_o though_o it_o be_v at_o hand_n the_o second_o be_v that_o we_o must_v be_v of_o good_a comfort_n when_o god_n seem_v to_o be_v as_o it_o be_v asleep_a and_o let_v the_o wicked_a alone_o and_o touch_v they_o not_o so_o much_o as_o

we_o to_o see_v how_o god_n will_v work_v more_o in_o one_o day_n than_o we_o look_v for_o in_o ten_o year_n you_o see_v then_o after_o what_o manner_n the_o faithful_a aught_o to_o hold_v themselves_o in_o awe_n namely_o that_o when_o we_o have_v bethink_v we_o of_o god_n threatening_n and_o consider_v that_o his_o judgemente_n make_v haste_n in_o come_v we_o may_v be_v sure_a that_o we_o shall_v not_o linger_v overlong_o in_o this_o world_n but_o that_o god_n will_v perform_v this_o say_n of_o he_o by_o the_o prophet_n abacuch_n 2.3_o abac._n 2.3_o that_o although_o he_o show_v

according_a to_o all_o that_o god_n have_v command_v he_o now_o by_o this_o preface_n he_o show_v that_o he_o bring_v not_o any_o thing_n of_o his_o own_o ne_o mean_v to_o subdue_v the_o people_n to_o his_o own_o dotage_n nor_o to_o any_o thing_n that_o he_o can_v have_v devise_v of_o his_o own_o reason_n and_o wisdom_n as_o in_o respect_n of_o man_n but_o that_o he_o do_v simple_o obey_v god_n as_o a_o faithful_a &_o trusty_a messenger_n without_o swerve_v aside_o either_o to_o the_o right_a hand_n or_o to_o the_o left_a now_o if_o moses_n who_o have_v so_o excellent_a a_o record_n as_o we_o see_v 34.10_o deut._n 34.10_o insomuch_o that_o god_n never_o raise_v up_o any_o prophet_n equal_a or_o like_a unto_o he_o if_o moses_n y_fw-fr e_o prince_n of_o all_o prophet_n next_o unto_o

shall_v other_o do_v may_v they_o compare_v themselves_o with_o he_o no_o but_o put_v the_o case_n that_o they_o be_v as_o high_o advance_v and_o place_v as_o he_o yet_o notwithstanding_o the_o further_a that_o they_o ought_v to_o go_v be_v but_o to_o set_v forth_o the_o thing_n that_o god_n have_v command_v they_o and_o therefore_o let_v we_o learn_v that_o here_o all_o man_n tradition_n be_v shut_v out_o of_o door_n and_o hereby_o it_o appear_v that_o the_o pope_n have_v mar_v and_o corrupt_v the_o whole_a order_n of_o the_o church_n by_o his_o take_n upon_o he_o to_o be_v a_o

his_o invention_n as_o the_o holy_a scripture_n be_v not_o this_o a_o turn_n of_o all_o thing_n upside_o down_o yes_o for_o god_n never_o mean_v that_o man_n shall_v have_v such_o liberty_n and_o sway_n in_o the_o church_n as_o to_o set_v forth_o any_o of_o their_o own_o invention_n there_o but_o he_o himself_o only_o will_n be_v hear_v there_o mark_v that_o for_o one_o point_n but_o there_o be_v yet_o more_o in_o it_o for_o it_o be_v not_o only_o say_v that_o moses_n speak_v according_a to_o the_o charge_n that_o be_v give_v he_o but_o according_a to_o all_o that_o ever_o the_o lord_n have_v command_v he_o he_o show_v then_o y_z t_z he_o do_v not_o as_o it_o be_v make_v a_o medley_n or_o seek_v by_o any_o mean_n to_o bring_v in_o what_o he_o himself_o think_v good_a or_o to_o separate_v himself_o from_o god_n word_n but_o that_o he_o follow_v god_n will_n from_o point_n to_o point_n to_o the_o uttermost_a you_o see_v then_o that_o there_o be_v a_o great_a singleness_n of_o heart_n in_o moses_n insomuch_o as_o he_o not_o only_o give_v forth_o the_o thing_n that_o he_o have_v receive_v at_o god_n hand_n but_o also_o continue_v throughout_o in_o the_o same_o singleness_n of_o keep_v himself_o within_o his_o bound_n so_o as_o he_o range_v not_o abroad_o to_o say_v this_o be_v good_a or_o that_o be_v good_a thus_o or_o thus_o do_v i_o think_v of_o this_o matter_n no_o

for_o the_o second_o point_n now_o herewithal_o we_o be_v warn_v to_o receive_v the_o doctrine_n here_o contain_v not_o as_o come_n from_o a_o mortal_a man_n in_o speak_v unto_o we_o moses_n protest_v that_o he_o himself_o be_v not_o our_o schoolmaster_n though_o he_o rehearse_v our_o lesson_n unto_o we_o but_o that_o must_v always_o be_v god_n and_o his_o holy_a spirit_n that_o must_v be_v even_o

receive_v any_o thing_n that_o be_v speak_v by_o moses_n we_o may_v warrant_v ourselves_o that_o god_n guide_v and_o govern_v we_o by_o his_o own_o pure_a truth_n and_o that_o our_o faith_n rest_v

then_o how_o it_o be_v a_o thing_n worthy_a to_o be_v mark_v and_o general_o let_v we_o learn_v that_o to_o examine_v our_o fault_n well_o we_o must_v not_o only_o have_v a_o eye_n to_o the_o thing_n that_o be_v do_v by_o our_o hand_n foot_n eye_n &_o ear_n but_o we_o must_v also_o go_v to_o the_o inward_a part_n &_o search_v our_o thought_n our_o wicked_a desire_n and_o all_o the_o thing_n that_o do_v tempt_v and_o provoke_v we_o for_o there_o lie_v the_o right_a examination_n of_o our_o sin_n when_o a_o man_n go_v about_o to_o justify_v himself_o because_o he_o have_v commit_v no_o murder_n

but_o it_o be_v but_o their_o common_a phrase_n of_o speech_n whereby_o they_o do_v betoken_v all_o time_n that_o be_v past_a and_o hereby_o our_o lord_n mean_v to_o declare_v that_o man_n must_v not_o look_v only_o at_o the_o present_a deed_n but_o that_o they_o must_v proceed_v further_a and_o see_v whether_o any_o mischief_n lie_v lurk_v afore_o for_o if_o a_o man_n allege_v circumstance_n to_o clear_v himself_o and_o be_v not_o find_v faulty_a out_o of_o hand_n that_o be_v not_o yet_o enough_o a_o eye_n must_v be_v have_v what_o go_v before_o the_o thing_n may_v be_v find_v out_o in_o

not_o look_v only_o upon_o the_o thing_n that_o be_v present_o fall_v out_o but_o let_v we_o go_v yet_o further_o and_o say_v how_o be_v this_o befall_v i_o it_o be_v because_o i_o have_v nourish_v this_o vice_n long_a time_n in_o i_o whereas_o if_o i_o have_v cut_v it_o off_o at_o the_o first_o god_n will_v not_o have_v leave_v i_o so_o much_o to_o myself_o but_o what_o i_o have_v soothe_v

we_o make_v of_o all_o our_o fault_n and_o not_o only_o condemn_v ourselves_o for_o the_o present_a deed_n do_v but_o also_o proceed_v further_o and_o say_v alas_o if_o i_o have_v arm_v myself_o against_o satan_n or_o if_o i_o have_v not_o of_o long_a time_n set_v open_v the_o way_n for_o he_o or_o if_o i_o have_v not_o wrought_v the_o mean_n for_o he_o to_o beguile_v i_o god_n have_v

have_v strive_v at_o the_o first_o and_o so_o you_o see_v yet_o again_o what_o we_o have_v to_o mark_v when_o we_o be_v to_o examine_v ourselves_o well_o and_o what_o doctrine_n we_o have_v to_o gather_v of_o this_o say_n y_z t_z inquiry_n must_v be_v make_v whether_o there_o have_v be_v any_o former_a hatred_n betwixt_o the_o party_n that_o be_v speak_v of_o in_o this_o place_n now_o final_o whereas_o it_o be_v say_v that_o there_o be_v no_o judgement_n of_o death_n upon_o such_o a_o man_n it_o serve_v to_o prove_v the_o thing_n better_o which_o i_o have_v speak_v already_o namely_o that_o if_o a_o man_n be_v not_o guilty_a by_o his_o own_o purpose_n intent_n or_o will_v he_o ought_v not_o to_o be_v take_v for_o a_o offender_n god_n acquit_v he_o and_o therefore_o he_o ought_v

man_n can_v always_o well_o grant_v y_o it_o fault_n be_v willing_a when_o you_o
fond_a as_o that_o even_o little_a babe_n may_v have_v mock_v they_o for_o it_o yet_o notwithstanding_o even_o the_o wise_a folk_n have_v be_v dote_v with_o they_o &_o the_o spirit_n of_o giddiness_n

with_o their_o fickle_a lust_n it_o be_v meet_v that_o they_o shall_v come_v to_o that_o point_n for_o as_o much_o then_o as_o it_o be_v so_o let_v we_o understand_v that_o our_o lord_n give_v we_o

for_o our_o way_n we_o ground_n not_o ourselves_o one_o upon_o another_o to_o say_v thus_o will_v i_o do_v for_o i_o see_v most_o man_n do_v it_o no_o but_o forasmuch_o as_o god_n call_v we_o to_o

we_o have_v need_v to_o call_v upon_o god_n when_o we_o be_v mingle_v with_o such_o as_o be_v able_a to_o corrupt_v we_o and_o to_o thrust_v we_o out_o of_o the_o way_n so_o as_o we_o be_v hem_v it_o

give_v we_o such_o power_n to_o resist_v he_o as_o we_o may_v have_v victory_n even_o unto_o the_o end_n thus_o you_o see_v what_o we_o have_v to_o remember_v upon_o this_o text_n of_o mosese_n furthermore_o where_o as_o he_o say_v that_o god_n lead_v his_o people_n about_o by_o the_o space_n of_o eight_o and_o thirty_o year_n until_o such_o time_n as_o all_o those_o that_o be_v able_a to_o

execute_v the_o vengeance_n which_o he_o have_v threaten_v to_o his_o people_n and_o as_o we_o see_v it_o be_v a_o very_a profitable_a lesson_n to_o teach_v we_o to_o tremble_v at_o god_n threaten_n as_o well_o as_o to_o be_v move_v at_o his_o promise_n such_o be_v our_o nature_n that_o when_o god_n promise_v we_o any_o thing_n we_o fall_v to_o scan_n and_o dispute_v of_o it_o so_o as_o we_o can_v rest_v upon_o it_o to_o say_v it_o shall_v be_v so_o we_o can_v conclude_v that_o it_o be_v god_n will_n true_a it_o be_v that_o we_o will_v confess_v it_o with_o our_o mouth_n but_o as_o for_o to_o be_v full_o resolve_v of_o it_o we_o will_v none_o of_o that_o unless_o his_o truth_n be_v well_o seal_v and_o warrant_v in_o our_o heart_n by_o his_o holy_a spirit_n and_o yet_o even_o then_o too_o we_o be_v so_o incline_v to_o distrust_n that_o we_o draw_v still_o back_o from_o the_o thing_n that_o god_n promise_v we_o so_o brutish_a and_o dulheaded_a be_v we_o and_o this_o appear_v yet_o more_o when_o he_o threaten_v we_o so_o much_o the_o more_o than_o ought_v we_o to_o think_v upon_o his_o judgement_n and_o to_o consider_v that_o if_o he_o be_v provoke_v the_o threaten_n that_o he_o have_v utter_v with_o his_o mouth_n shall_v not_o fall_v to_o the_o ground_n but_o have_v their_o effect_n and_o performance_n thus_o you_o see_v to_o what_o purpose_n moses_n rehearse_v again_o that_o all_o they_o which_o be_v above_o twenty_o year_n old_a at_o the_o time_n that_o the_o people_n murmur_v be_v consume_v and_o that_o not_o by_o casualty_n but_o according_a to_o the_o lord_n own_o say_n and_o this_o be_v to_o assure_v the_o people_n yet_o more_o to_o the_o end_n they_o may_v perceive_v that_o god_n threaten_v of_o they_o be_v in_o good_a earnest_n and_o herewith_o all_o let_v we_o also_o call_v to_o remembrance_n that_o god_n can_v abide_v that_o man_n shall_v despise_v and_o refuse_v the_o benefit_n that_o he_o offer_v and_o let_v occasion_n slip_v for_o if_o he_o open_v the_o gate_n and_o man_n will_v not_o enter_v he_o can_v bear_v with_o that_o negligence_n of_o they_o match_v with_o disobedience_n for_o what_o be_v the_o cause_n that_o god_n be_v so_o

unto_o they_o it_o be_v for_o that_o they_o have_v refuse_v to_o enter_v into_o the_o land_n that_o he_o have_v promise_v they_o we_o see_v then_o that_o unthankfulness_n provoke_v god_n vengeance_n against_o we_o to_o the_o uttermost_a special_o when_o we_o refuse_v the_o benefit_n that_o he_o offer_v we_o and_o that_o such_o refusal_n proceed_v of_o wilfulness_n and_o malice_n which_o happen_v in_o manner_n continual_o for_o what_o make_v we_o so_o loath_a to_o receive_v the_o good_a turn_n that_o god_n will_v do_v we_o but_o our_o own_o unbelief_n forasmuch_o as_o we_o think_v not_o that_o

better_o by_o his_o correction_n and_o judgement_n in_o process_n of_o time_n than_o if_o he_o shall_v punish_v we_o out_o of_o hand_n and_o away_o indeed_o in_o our_o own_o imagination_n we_o have_v

they_o have_v their_o delight_n sport_n and_o triumph_n at_o their_o pleasure_n and_o that_o be_v to_o try_v our_o patience_n nevertheless_o sometime_o god_n set_v they_o languish_v as_o well_o as_o
