now_o from_o hence_o arise_v another_o great_a scruple_n and_o that_o be_v how_o it_o can_v be_v say_v this_o prayer_n be_v hear_v see_v he_o be_v not_o deliver_v but_o do_v suffer_v death_n i_o answer_v if_o you_o understand_v his_o prayer_n only_o of_o the_o speedy_a take_v off_o of_o god_n hand_n than_o there_o be_v no_o difficulty_n or_o doubt_n and_o if_o it_o be_v understand_v of_o death_n we_o must_v fly_v to_o a_o distinction_n which_o be_v thus_o god_n hear_v prayer_n two_o way_n the_o one_o when_o he_o direct_o grant_v what_o we_o express_o ask_v the_o other_o when_o he_o give_v we_o so_o much_o of_o our_o suit_n as_o be_v good_a for_o we_o and_o what_o he_o deny_v recompense_v in_o some_o other_o thing_n which_o be_v answerable_a thereunto_o and_o more_o profitable_a for_o us._n so_o he_o deal_v with_o christ_n here_o though_o he_o do_v not_o free_v he_o from_o death_n yet_o he_o do_v free_v he_o from_o the_o hurt_n of_o death_n so_o as_o he_o be_v able_a to_o bear_v it_o and_o be_v deliver_v from_o it_o in_o due_a time_n which_o be_v all_o that_o which_o the_o nature_n of_o christ_n in_o distress_n in_o effect_n seek_v viz._n the_o preservation_n of_o itself_o and_o this_o may_v be_v very_o useful_a for_o we_o to_o observe_v god_n may_v seem_v to_o deny_v we_o many_o thing_n which_o yet_o he_o grant_v and_o our_o weak_a prayer_n may_v get_v we_o some_o blessing_n though_o we_o feel_v it_o not_o for_o the_o present_a and_o if_o god_n change_v with_o we_o and_o give_v we_o that_o which_o be_v better_o for_o we_o than_o that_o which_o we_o ask_v he_o do_v we_o no_o wrong_n in_o hear_v prayer_n god_n consider_v not_o so_o much_o the_o please_a of_o our_o will_n as_o the_o further_a of_o our_o salvation_n and_o therefore_o we_o must_v take_v heed_n we_o grow_v not_o froward_a or_o discourage_v and_o judge_v that_o god_n hear_v we_o not_o because_o he_o let_v we_o pray_v often_o and_o yet_o according_a to_o the_o letter_n of_o our_o prayer_n we_o see_v not_o that_o we_o be_v hear_v let_v this_o example_n of_o christ_n that_o pray_v thrice_o and_o the_o like_a of_o paul_n pray_v thrice_o against_o the_o temptation_n of_o the_o

in_o the_o apprehension_n of_o christ_n i_o observe_v two_o thing_n first_o how_o they_o come_v to_o christ_n and_o meet_v he_o second_o how_o they_o lay_v hand_n upon_o he_o and_o bind_v he_o and_o

they_o now_o what_o be_v all_o this_o to_o do_v it_o be_v to_o take_v christ_n christ_n i_o say_v that_o be_v know_v to_o be_v so_o peaceable_a a_o man_n and_o so_o quiet_a as_o no_o man_n come_v

needs_o lay_v violent_a hand_n upon_o he_o but_o observe_v two_o memorable_a thing_n first_o the_o effect_n of_o a_o ill_a conscience_n in_o judas_n and_o the_o priest_n they_o know_v the_o cause_n to_o be_v so_o naught_o suffer_v such_o a_o conflict_n with_o a_o army_n of_o fear_n in_o their_o own_o heart_n that_o fear_v lest_o both_o god_n and_o man_n shall_v be_v against_o they_o they_o raise_v a_o army_n of_o man_n for_o the_o effect_n of_o their_o wicked_a purpose_n oh_o the_o force_n of_o conscience_n what_o a_o fearful_a baseness_n be_v it_o to_o be_v wicked_a or_o to_o set_v upon_o wicked_a purpose_n it_o be_v a_o very_a troublesome_a and_o chargeable_a thing_n to_o be_v engage_v for_o the_o effect_n of_o mischievous_a device_n second_o note_v how_o just_a god_n be_v these_o sinful_a man_n have_v draw_v their_o sword_n and_o bend_v their_o bow_n against_o the_o just_a one_o how_o deserve_o therefore_o afterward_o do_v god_n make_v the_o sword_n enter_v into_o their_o own_o breast_n these_o man_n that_o entertain_v but_o one_o band_n of_o roman_n against_o their_o lord_n and_o king_n even_o christ_n shall_v afterward_o receive_v into_o their_o own_o bowel_n and_o bosom_n the_o sword_n of_o the_o whole_a army_n of_o the_o roman_n to_o revenge_v their_o rebellion_n not_o against_o they_o but_o against_o
believe_v thus_o of_o the_o first_o question_n for_o the_o second_o we_o shall_v find_v in_o the_o story_n of_o the_o evangelist_n that_o the_o chief_a witness_n of_o christ_n death_n be_v woman_n that_o follow_v christ_n from_o galilee_n and_o minister_v to_o he_o by_o name_n mary_n magdalen_n and_o mary_n the_o mother_n of_o james_n and_o joses_fw-es and_o salome_n and_o the_o mother_n of_o z●bedees_n child_n these_o a_o far_o off_o behold_v what_o be_v do_v of_o all_o the_o apostle_n and_o seventie_o disciple_n here_o be_v not_o one_o but_o only_o john_n the_o evangelist_n who_o be_v by_o the_o cross_n with_o the_o virgin_n mary_n thus_o will_v god_n exercise_v the_o faith_n of_o his_o servant_n the_o church_n must_v receive_v the_o report_n of_o the_o thing_n that_o concern_v the_o death_n of_o christ_n from_o woman_n as_o the_o chief_a witness_n and_o hereby_o do_v christ_n honour_v the_o piety_n of_o these_o woman_n that_o follow_v he_o to_o the_o death_n when_o the_o disciple_n flee_v and_o leave_v he_o which_o be_v a_o everlasting_a honour_n to_o their_o sex_n and_o show_v that_o god_n can_v make_v woman_n glorious_a confessor_n of_o the_o truth_n even_o at_o such_o time_n as_o man_n hide_v their_o head_n for_o fear_n what_o a_o shame_n be_v this_o for_o the_o apostle_n to_o be_v absent_a from_o a_o spectacle_n upon_o which_o the_o salvation_n of_o the_o whole_a world_n do_v depend_v beside_o hence_o we_o may_v gather_v that_o christ_n can_v preserve_v unto_o himself_o some_o number_n that_o profess_v his_o truth_n and_o can_v arm_v they_o against_o the_o fear_n of_o danger_n even_o in_o the_o most_o desperate_a persecution_n yea_o some_o such_o as_o will_v neither_o fly_v nor_o hide_v themselves_o now_o for_o the_o three_o question_n there_o be_v many_o thing_n to_o be_v note_v in_o the_o manner_n how_o christ_n die_v for_o 1._o he_o die_v true_o it_o be_v not_o a_o putative_a death_n but_o a_o true_a death_n he_o die_v in_o deed_n and_o not_o in_o show_n or_o appearance_n only_o 2._o he_o die_v a_o grievous_a death_n for_o he_o die_v a_o painful_a death_n and_o he_o die_v a_o violent_a death_n and_o he_o die_v a_o curse_a death_n there_o be_v certain_a in_o ancient_a time_n that_o hold_v that_o christ_n receive_v many_o wound_n be_v smite_v whip_v nail_v and_o shed_v his_o blood_n and_o die_v his_o soul_n go_v out_o of_o his_o body_n but_o yet_o never_o indeed_o feel_v any_o pain_n he_o have_v they_o say_v a_o body_n that_o can_v suffer_v but_o not_o a_o nature_n that_o can_v grieve_v or_o feel_v pain_n but_o that_o he_o do_v feel_v pain_n be_v not_o christi_fw-la only_o manifest_v by_o his_o own_o word_n but_o be_v express_o affirm_v by_o the_o prophet_n isaiah_n chap._n 53._o he_o suffer_v also_o a_o violent_a death_n he_o do_v not_o die_v a_o natural_a death_n and_o it_o must_v needs_o be_v so_o because_o christ_n have_v nothing_o in_o he_o to_o cause_v he_o to_o die_v and_o beside_o he_o thereby_o answer_v to_o the_o type_n in_o the_o sacrifice_n of_o the_o old_a testament_n which_o be_v not_o only_a beast_n dead_a but_o beast_n slay_v three_o he_o suffer_v a_o curse_a death_n for_o such_o be_v

it_o be_v a_o thousand_o time_n more_o easy_a to_o suffer_v the_o death_n of_o a_o martyr_n than_o for_o christ_n to_o suffer_v bare_a death_n of_o any_o kind_n because_o martyr_n in_o death_n be_v

and_o therefore_o do_v pity_v they_o and_o will_v suocour_v they_o second_o by_o consider_v that_o christ_n have_v bear_v in_o his_o own_o soul_n the_o brunt_n of_o god_n displeasure_n for_o sin_n and_o therefore_o they_o shall_v not_o be_v so_o dismay_v but_o behold_v his_o soul_n as_o make_v a_o sacrifice_n for_o their_o sin_n and_o thus_o of_o his_o agony_n there_o be_v yet_o another_o
