repair_v to_o that_o fountain_n to_o know_v whether_o it_o be_v a_o crime_n or_o no._n as_o for_o example_n if_o a_o man_n have_v commit_v a_o manslaughter_n how_o may_v it_o be_v know_v that_o he_o

all_o that_o forasmuch_o as_o hatred_n or_o malice_n be_v the_o wellspring_n of_o murder_n it_o be_v not_o to_o be_v wonder_v at_o or_o to_o be_v think_v strange_a that_o god_n shall_v denounce_v

that_o be_v conceive_v afore_o which_o lead_v the_o hand_n and_o provoke_v the_o man_n to_o commit_v the_o murder_n therefore_o mark_v it_o for_o a_o point_n that_o it_o be_v not_o without_o cause_n that_o our_o lord_n deem_v all_o those_o to_o be_v murderer_n which_o do_v so_o hate_v their_o neighbour_n and_o the_o same_o must_v warn_v we_o to_o prevent_v all_o danger_n that_o the_o sun_n go_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

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

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

two_o part_n the_o one_o be_v that_o when_o a_o offender_n be_v execute_v by_o order_n of_o law_n man_n must_v not_o be_v ashamed_a of_o the_o hang_n of_o his_o body_n why_o so_o for_o a_o witness_n

that_o he_o will_v have_v the_o very_a heaven_n to_o be_v a_o witness_n thereof_o by_o hang_v up_o the_o body_n upon_o a_o gibbet_n and_o he_o will_v have_v all_o the_o element_n to_o be_v there_o

i_o tell_v you_o this_o be_v a_o lesson_n very_o behooveful_a for_o we_o in_o these_o day_n although_o this_o law_n be_v but_o for_o the_o outward_a man_n yet_o be_v it_o god_n will_n that_o the_o

perceive_v that_o god_n have_v grave_v this_o principle_n in_o man_n heart_n that_o the_o execution_n which_o be_v do_v by_o person_n of_o authority_n and_o by_o such_o as_o be_v in_o office_n &_o

till_o the_o last_o judgement_n and_o have_v commit_v that_o charge_n to_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n yet_o be_v it_o his_o will_n that_o there_o shall_v be_v some_o resemblance_n of_o justice_n even_o in_o this_o earthly_a life_n true_a it_o be_v that_o it_o shall_v not_o come_v to_o perfection_n here_o and_o that_o the_o most_o part_n of_o such_o as_o shall_v be_v condemn_v at_o the_o

those_o into_o who_o hand_n he_o have_v put_v the_o sword_n of_o justice_n as_o say_v s._n paul_n in_o the_o thirteen_o to_o the_o roman_n where_o he_o tell_v we_o that_o god_n arm_v of_o they_o after_o that_o sort_n be_v not_o for_o naught_o he_o will_v not_o have_v they_o to_o be_v but_o as_o a_o shadow_n to_o scar_n babe_n and_o to_o be_v utter_o void_a of_o power_n but_o he_o will_v have_v judge_n to_o know_v that_o they_o be_v bind_v to_o punish_v misdeed_n and_o so_o far_o off_o be_v it_o that_o their_o so_o do_v shall_v be_v impute_v to_o they_o for_o evil_a or_o sin_n that_o god_n have_v show_v by_o this_o ceremony_n of_o the_o law_n that_o all_o the_o element_n of_o the_o world_n accept_v it_o and_o allow_v of_o it_o as_o witness_n to_o god_n as_o who_o shall_v say_v that_o the_o body_n hang_v in_o the_o air_n be_v as_o a_o solemn_a record_n that_o such_o execution_n be_v not_o to_o be_v condemn_v neither_o ought_v the_o magistrate_n to_o be_v desirous_a to_o hide_v it_o as_o though_o they_o be_v murderer_n of_o such_o as_o they_o cause_v to_o be_v put_v to_o death_n but_o rather_o to_o set_v they_o out_o for_o a_o example_n as_o who_o will_v say_v we_o have_v do_v a_o sacrifice_n unto_o god_n it_o be_v our_o office_n it_o be_v our_o charge_n thus_o behove_v it_o we_o to_o do_v for_o if_o we_o shall_v spare_v man_n in_o this_o behalf_n we_o shall_v

thus_o much_o concern_v the_o first_o point_n now_o there_o be_v also_o a_o second_o point_n which_o be_v that_o the_o body_n must_v not_o hang_v in_o the_o air_n above_o one_o day_n and_o that_o be_v because_o such_o sight_n do_v in_o truth_n

but_o i_o have_v tell_v you_o already_o that_o we_o be_v no_o more_o bind_v thereunto_o by_o necessity_n in_o some_o country_n they_o have_v devise_v certain_a brotherhood_n who_o shall_v go_v and_o take_v down_o the_o body_n from_o the_o gibbet_n &_o bury_v they_o and_o true_o that_o be_v a_o fond_a devotion_n for_o they_o know_v not_o wherefore_o they_o do_v so_o the_o jew_n also_o be_v so_o bewitch_v with_o their_o own_o dotage_n that_o they_o think_v that_o the_o burial_n of_o they_o command_v in_o this_o place_n do_v concern_v the_o welfare_n of_o their_o soul_n likewise_o the_o

to_o turn_v away_o man_n continual_o to_o a_o multitude_n of_o lie_n god_n care_n be_v rather_o of_o we_o which_o be_v alyve_a as_o though_o he_o mean_v to_o set_v a_o mean_a between_o the_o rigour_n of_o justice_n and_o the_o gentleness_n which_o ought_v to_o be_v among_o us._n this_o mean_a therefore_o be_v well_o worthy_a to_o be_v mark_v for_o we_o ever_o swarâ—e_v aside_o to_o some_o

to_o do_v all_o manner_n of_o mischief_n without_o correction_n on_o the_o other_o side_n in_o mynd_v to_o be_v severe_a we_o run_v in_o danger_n of_o be_v too_o severe_a god_n therefore_o appoint_v a_o mean_a which_o be_v first_o of_o all_o that_o we_o shall_v punish_v the_o offence_n that_o deserve_v death_n and_o second_o to_o the_o end_n that_o justice_n shall_v be_v have_v in_o honour_n and_o that_o we_o shall_v not_o surmise_v any_o reprochefulnesse_n in_o it_o he_o will_v have_v the_o offender_n body_n hoist_v up_o into_o the_o air_n for_o man_n to_o look_v at_o as_o it_o be_v in_o way_n of_o warranty_n y_o it_o when_o a_o magistrate_n punish_v a_o offence_n he_o offer_v up_o a_o sacrifice_n acceptable_a in_o heaven_n &_o consequent_o which_o ought_v to_o be_v well_o take_v on_o earth_n yet_o for_o all_o this_o he_o will_v not_o have_v we_o to_o be_v too_o hard-hearted_a but_o always_o to_o retain_v still_o some_o pitifulnesse_n and_o compassion_n and_o when_o justice_n be_v so_o approve_a he_o will_v have_v the_o body_n to_o be_v bury_v yea_o even_o remoove_v from_o of_o the_o earth_n as_o a_o infection_n for_o why_o so_o long_o as_o a_o man_n body_n hang_v upon_o the_o gallows_n there_o be_v two_o thing_n see_v the_o one_o be_v that_o god_n have_v well_o provide_v for_o mankind_n in_o ordain_v the_o execution_n of_o justice_n and_o that_o malefactor_n shall_v not_o be_v spare_v that_o be_v one_o point_n another_o be_v that_o man_n may_v say_v thus_o with_o themselves_o lo_o here_o be_v a_o wicked_a deed_n do_v for_o these_o be_v token_n that_o the_o land_n have_v be_v defile_v therefore_o when_o a_o body_n be_v so_o hang_v up_o it_o be_v a_o sign_n of_o the_o defyl_n of_o the_o land_n by_o the_o commit_n of_o some_o robbery_n murder_n or_o other_o heinous_a crime_n when_o it_o be_v so_o let_v this_o also_o be_v ever_o mark_v god_n therefore_o intend_v to_o show_v that_o where_o justice_n be_v execute_v the_o fault_n be_v forgive_v and_o the_o country_n stand_v no_o long_o charge_v therewith_o but_o his_o wrath_n be_v pacify_v and_o as_o though_o the_o misdeed_n have_v be_v spare_v he_o will_v have_v the_o body_n bury_v thus_o you_o see_v how_o the_o execute_n of_o justice_n upon_o offender_n and_o wicked_a doer_n and_o the_o cut_n off_o of_o leaudenesse_n be_v a_o warrant_n that_o god_n vengeance_n shall_v not_o light_v upon_o the_o land_n now_o than_o we_o see_v in_o effect_n what_o god_n mean_v by_o his_o law_n also_o we_o see_v how_o the_o instruction_n continue_v still_o unto_o we_o though_o we_o have_v not_o the_o use_n of_o the_o law_n itself_o because_o the_o law_n command_v a_o thing_n whereunto_o we_o be_v no_o more_o bind_v since_o the_o come_n of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ._n so_o to_o be_v short_a this_o

neither_o behove_v it_o we_o alone_o to_o show_v our_o zeal_n in_o punish_v of_o great_a enormity_n but_o also_o to_o consider_v that_o small_a fault_n draw_v on_o the_o great_a when_o they_o be_v

which_o thing_n saint_n peter_n allege_v also_o and_o it_o be_v a_o very_a notable_a say_n and_o such_o a_o one_o as_o may_v serve_v we_o to_o great_a purpose_n for_o we_o be_v abash_v when_o we_o

which_o i_o will_v touch_v in_o few_o word_n and_o it_o will_v be_v enough_o to_o conclude_v this_o song_n withal_o the_o first_o be_v that_o god_n say_v he_o will_v revenge_v the_o blood_n of_o his_o servant_n now_o under_o this_o say_n he_o show_v we_o that_o we_o may_v well_o be_v afflict_v for_o a_o time_n so_o far_o forth_o that_o even_o our_o very_a blood_n shall_v not_o be_v spare_v whether_o it_o be_v that_o god_n punish_v we_o for_o the_o fault_n which_o we_o have_v commit_v against_o he_o or_o that_o he_o will_v be_v to_o try_v our_o patience_n the_o thing_n then_o whereof_o we_o be_v warn_v be_v that_o if_o god_n think_v good_a to_o have_v our_o blood_n shed_v we_o must_v not_o think_v it_o strange_a nor_o shrink_v from_o the_o promise_n which_o he_o have_v make_v we_o in_o avow_v himself_o to_o be_v our_o god_n and_o the_o defender_n of_o our_o life_n neither_o must_v we_o think_v that_o those_o promise_n be_v disannul_v though_o our_o god_n suffer_v we_o to_o be_v handle_v so_o cruel_o but_o let_v we_o tarry_v the_o time_n till_o he_o revenge_v our_o blood_n for_o he_o will_v then_o show_v how_o dear_a and_o precious_a our_o life_n be_v unto_o he_o thus_o much_o concern_v the_o first_o point_n as_o touch_v the_o second_o he_o say_v that_o god_n will_v requite_v his_o enemy_n with_o the_o like_a to_o the_o end_n we_o shall_v know_v that_o all_o the_o felicity_n of_o the_o wicked_a and_o of_o the_o despiser_n of_o god_n shall_v be_v accurse_v â—_o psal._n 37._o â—_o &_o therefore_o that_o we_o must_v not_o repine_v at_o they_o therefore_o now_o then_o if_o we_o see_v god_n enemy_n to_o be_v rich_a to_o have_v their_o ease_n in_o this_o world_n and_o to_o welter_v in_o all_o pleasure_n let_v we_o let_v they_o alone_o and_o not_o be_v draw_v do_v spire_n they_o or_o to_o intermeddle_v ourselves_o with_o they_o for_o why_o god_n be_v vengeance_n which_o be_v yet_o unseen_a must_v come_v before_o our_o eye_n &_o be_v consider_v by_o faith_n &_o we_o must_v also_o remember_v how_o it_o be_v say_v 6.25_o luke_n 6.25_o curse_a be_v you_o y_fw-mi it_o laugh_v for_o you_o shall_v weep_v forasmuch_o then_o as_o the_o laughter_n of_o y_fw-fr

we_o well_o remember_v what_o be_v contain_v here_o as_o thing_n that_o proceed_v not_o from_o a_o mortal_a creature_n but_o from_o god_n who_o witness_v that_o he_o be_v the_o father_n and_o defendor_n of_o his_o church_n now_o this_o concern_v us._n for_o although_o we_o have_v not_o the_o like_a prophecy_n yet_o have_v god_n declare_v unto_o we_o that_o we_o be_v ever_o under_o his_o charge_n and_o that_o he_o watch_v for_o our_o welfare_n and_o we_o for_o our_o part_n have_v no_o need_n to_o be_v train_v on_o in_o knowledge_n by_o such_o mean_n because_o god_n have_v bring_v we_o already_o to_o a_o other_o manner_n of_o perfection_n therefore_o let_v we_o hold_v we_o content_v with_o the_o come_n of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n in_o who_o person_n the_o thing_n be_v perform_v which_o be_v hope_v for_o under_o the_o law_n and_o therewithal_o let_v we_o be_v full_o resolve_v that_o god_n guide_v our_o step_n and_o that_o even_o in_o the_o midst_n of_o all_o the_o disorder_n and_o trouble_n which_o be_v see_v in_o the_o world_n his_o church_n be_v still_o dear_a and_o precious_a unto_o he_o and_o in_o good_a sooth_n we_o see_v that_o before_o jesus_n christ_n

christ_n have_v in_o his_o person_n the_o thing_n that_o be_v figure_v in_o old_a time_n under_o the_o law_n let_v we_o know_v then_o that_o nowadays_o there_o be_v one_o everlasting_a blessing_n of_o god_n which_o be_v much_o better_o witness_v unto_o we_o than_o all_o the_o blessing_n that_o be_v so_o often_o repeat_v under_o the_o law_n insomuch_o that_o as_o now_o god_n tell_v we_o by_o his_o only_a son_n that_o he_o take_v we_o into_o his_o favour_n and_o that_o we_o be_v as_o his_o child_n and_o that_o the_o preach_n of_o the_o gospel_n serve_v we_o to_o that_o end_n and_o we_o must_v apply_v it_o to_o that_o use_n so_o then_o whensoever_o we_o come_v to_o hear_v the_o word_n of_o god_n let_v we_o call_v to_o mind_n how_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n at_o his_o go_v up_o into_o

before_o his_o death_n be_v not_o mean_v a_o year_n or_o two_o no_o nor_o yet_o a_o month_n but_o at_o his_o death_n time_n even_o when_o he_o be_v to_o die_v and_o these_o blessing_n be_v therefore_o of_o so_o much_o the_o more_o authority_n for_o we_o know_v that_o when_o a_o man_n make_v his_o last_o will_n it_o shall_v be_v better_o receyve_v than_o the_o thing_n which_o he_o speak_v during_o
