before_o and_o with_o falsehood_n &_o shameful_a deceit_n withdraw_v &_o steal_v it_o from_o the_o right_a heir_n she_o lade_v first_o her_o honest_a poor_a husband_n with_o great_a shame_n great_a

whether_o they_o be_v lawful_o beget_v or_o no._n therefore_o when_o they_o speak_v of_o their_o mother_n or_o hear_v she_o name_v they_o be_v abash_v and_o ashamed_a adultress_n also_o make_v their_o

punishment_n of_o death_n as_o due_a for_o the_o abominable_a sin_n of_o adultery_n yet_o adulterer_n allege_v for_o their_o defence_n that_o this_o rigorous_a punishment_n of_o death_n appoint_v by_o god_n have_v not_o be_v execute_v or_o put_v in_o practice_n at_o any_o time_n upon_o the_o offender_n for_o david_n be_v a_o adulterer_n say_v they_o and_o yet_o receive_v no_o punishment_n therefore_o yea_o the_o lord_n christ_n himself_o do_v abrogate_v and_o dissolve_v the_o punishment_n of_o adultery_n forsomuch_o as_o he_o command_v not_o the_o woman_n take_v in_o adultery_n to_o

answer_v god_n have_v once_o already_o reveal_v his_o will_n in_o his_o law_n concern_v the_o punishment_n due_a to_o this_o sin_n now_o if_o man_n do_v not_o execute_v the_o punishment_n according_a to_o god_n commandment_n yet_o remain_v the_o law_n of_o god_n irrevocable_a and_o sure_a therefore_o this_o be_v a_o vain_a objection_n and_o albeit_o all_o sentence_n and_o judgement_n that_o have_v be_v execute_v of_o old_a upon_o adulterer_n be_v not_o extant_a in_o holy_a scripture_n it_o be_v no_o marvel_n for_o god_n book_n be_v not_o so_o general_a a_o register_n that_o we_o must_v look_v to_o find_v in_o the_o same_o the_o act_n and_o punishment_n of_o all_o unthrifte_n and_o brothel_n and_o the_o execution_n of_o all_o such_o malesactour_n the_o story_n of_o susanna_n tell_v how_o it_o be_v like_a to_o have_v go_v with_o she_o which_o plain_o show_v that_o such_o execution_n be_v then_o in_o use_n david_n also_o commit_v adultery_n once_o in_o his_o life_n which_o be_v the_o occasion_n of_o the_o horrible_a murder_n also_o which_o he_o commit_v so_o that_o he_o cause_v not_o only_o his_o faithful_a servant_n vriah_n but_o other_o noble_a man_n in_o like_a manner_n to_o be_v slay_v what_o come_v of_o it_o truth_n it_o be_v he_o be_v not_o stone_v to_o death_n but_o what_o change_v unto_o he_o sure_o even_o as_o he_o have_v dishonour_v another_o man_n child_n so_o see_v he_o shame_v upon_o his_o own_o child_n while_o he_o live_v and_o that_o with_o great_a wretchedness_n for_o amon_n deflower_v thamar_n his_o own_o natural_a sister_n and_o they_o both_o be_v david_n child_n and_o abshalom_n do_v miserable_o slay_v amon_n his_o brother_n for_o commit_v that_o wickedness_n with_o his_o sister_n thamar_n not_o long_o after_o do_v the_o same_o abshalom_n drive_v his_o own_o natural_a father_n david_n out_o of_o his_o realm_n and_o unnatural_o and_o shameful_o lay_v with_o his_o father_n wife_n whereupon_o there_o follow_v a_o horrible_a great_a slaughter_n in_o the_o which_o abshalom_n be_v slay_v with_o many_o thousand_o mo_z of_o the_o common_a people_n now_o let_v every_o man_n indifferent_o weigh_v with_o himself_o whether_o it_o be_v not_o a_o less_o thing_n once_o to_o have_v execution_n and_o to_o die_v then_o to_o abide_v the_o death_n of_o so_o many_o and_o that_o so_o long_o with_o such_o misery_n and_o sorrow_n therefore_o be_v david_n more_o grievous_o punish_v then_o if_o he_o have_v be_v but_o once_o stone_v to_o death_n let_v every_o man_n than_o learn_v here_o by_o this_o example_n that_o none_o can_v escape_v the_o hand_n of_o god_n although_o the_o world_n lie_v no_o hand_n upon_o he_o god_n nevertheless_o punish_v and_o that_o with_o a_o more_o heavy_a judgement_n when_o he_o do_v it_o not_o here_o but_o defer_v it_o unto_o another_o world_n and_o whereas_o they_o make_v christ_n a_o maintainer_n of_o adulterer_n that_o be_v too_o intolerable_a wickedness_n christ_n never_o give_v liberty_n to_o sin_n for_o he_o say_v i_o come_v not_o to_o break_v the_o law_n but_o to_o fulfil_v it_o saint_n paul_n also_o say_v to_o the_o righteous_a there_o be_v no_o law_n give_v but_o to_o the_o unrighteous_a

therefore_o forsomuch_o as_o adulterer_n do_v walk_v in_o the_o flesh_n and_o not_o in_o the_o spirit_n they_o be_v under_o the_o law_n neither_o have_v the_o lord_n take_v the_o law_n and_o punishment_n from_o they_o moreover_o as_o touch_v the_o story_n in_o the_o 8._o chapter_n of_o saint_n john_n we_o must_v consider_v that_o the_o lord_n say_v unto_o the_o adultress_n woman_n have_v no_o man_n condemn_v thou_o and_o when_o she_o have_v answer_v no_o man_n lord_n he_o say_v neither_o do_v i_o condemn_v thou_o for_o with_o this_o answer_n lay_v he_o before_o her_o the_o sentence_n of_o the_o judge_n to_o strike_v her_o conscience_n that_o she_o may_v feel_v and_o see_v what_o she_o have_v deserve_v but_o forsomuch_o as_o he_o be_v not_o come_v now_o to_o give_v sentence_n as_o a_o judge_n but_o to_o save_v he_o will_v not_o condemn_v she_o and_o therefore_o neither_o meddle_v with_o the_o law_n nor_o act_n the_o lord_n be_v now_o come_v to_o have_v mercy_n upon_o sinner_n and_o to_o call_v to_o repentance_n therefore_o say_v he_o also_o to_o this_o woman_n go_v thy_o way_n and_o sin_n no_o more_o by_o which_o word_n the_o lord_n do_v warn_v all_o such_o as_o be_v

of_o chastity_n and_o of_o cleanness_n of_o heart_n so_o do_v thou_o shall_v be_v sure_a to_o reap_v the_o fruit_n to_o thy_o continual_a
