send_v it_o back_o on_o a_o cart_n draw_v by_o beast_n which_o seem_v to_o be_v the_o fault_n of_o the_o levi●s_n who_o give_v themselves_o too_o much_o herein_o to_o their_o own_o ease_n and_o

likewise_o we_o see_v that_o the_o ark_n bring_v death_n and_o destruction_n to_o vzzah_n but_o as_o after_o blessing_n to_o obededom_n even_o so_o the_o right_a use_n or_o abuse_v of_o the_o word_n

at_o zion_n where_o we_o see_v 1._o david_n godly_a grief_n that_o god_n shall_v have_v be_v grieve_v at_o that_o which_o vzzah_n unwarrantable_o have_v do_v against_o the_o law_n which_o do_v

so_o sudden_a and_o unexpected_a death_n which_o show_v 1._o the_o grief_n that_o godly_a man_n have_v at_o the_o offence_n of_o god_n which_o be_v express_v ezek._n 9_o 4._o jer._n 9_o 1._o and_o

we_o see_v that_o not_o only_o the_o testimony_n of_o the_o lord_n mercy_n towards_o the_o godly_a and_o their_o deliverance_n shall_v be_v remember_v but_o likewise_o the_o testimony_n of_o his_o
