a_o epistle_n for_o the_o strengthen_v and_o confirm_v of_o friend_n in_o their_o most_o holy_a faith_n friend_n all_z abroad_o every_o where_o think_v it_o not_o strange_a concern_v the_o fiery_a trial_n which_o be_v but_o to_o try_v you_o for_o be_v it_o not_o write_v every_o man_n work_n must_v be_v try_v neither_o think_v the_o time_n long_o neither_o look_n at_o suffering_n nor_o at_o the_o potentness_n of_o those_o that_o cause_n you_o to_o suffer_v but_o look_v to_o the_o lord_n that_o be_v able_a to_o deliver_v do_v the_o lord_n ever_o leave_v or_o forsake_v his_o people_n in_o a_o suffer_a condition_n that_o stand_v for_o his_o name_n or_o give_v up_o themselves_o free_o to_o whatever_o the_o persecutor_n can_v do_v for_o there_o be_v informer_n and_o law_n and_o decree_v make_v in_o ahasuerus_n time_n but_o the_o lord_n frustrate_v they_o &_o those_o that_o stand_v for_o the_o name_n of_o the_o lord_n come_v over_o all_o at_o last_o when_o the_o lord_n see_v their_o faithfulness_n and_o the_o trial_n of_o their_o faith_n haman_n be_v a_o informer_n and_o say_v unto_o king_n ahasuerus_n there_o be_v a_o certain_a people_n scatter_v abroad_o and_o despise_a among_o the_o people_n in_o all_o the_o province_n of_o thy_o kingdom_n and_o their_o law_n be_v divers_a from_o all_o people_n neither_o keep_v they_o the_o king_n law_n therefore_o it_o be_v no●_n for_o the_o king_n profit_n to_o suffer_v they_o so_o if_o it_o please_v the_o king_n let_v they_o be_v destroy_v and_o he_o will_v give_v so_o much_o money_n as_o you_o may_v read_v in_o esther_n 3._o 9_o and_o this_o be_v but_o for_o want_v of_o poor_a mordecai_n bow_v to_o he_o so_o the_o king_n grant_v this_o great_a informer_n request_n to_o destroy_v all_o the_o seed_n of_o the_o jew_n that_o be_v within_o his_o province_n but_o read_v on_o in_o the_o three_o and_o four_o chapter_n of_o esther_n and_o see_v what_o come_v to_o pass_v in_o a_o little_a time_n the_o jew_n be_v deliver_v and_o the_o informer_n go_v to_o the_o gallow_n now_o if_o haman_n have_v be_v quiet_a it_o be_v a_o question_n if_o he_o have_v be_v destroy_v or_o not_o for_o the_o adversary_n lift_v up_o themselves_o against_o the_o lord_n remnant_n never_o lengthen_v their_o day_n for_o when_o the_o faithfulness_n of_o his_o people_n and_o uprightness_n of_o their_o heart_n to_o he_o be_v see_v he_o soon_o bring_v deliverance_n they_o need_v not_o find_v the_o lord_n a_o way_n out_o to_o deliver_v therefore_o all_o friend_n every_o where_o give_v up_o all_o you_o be_v and_o have_v and_o wait_v to_o find_v a_o godly_a resolution_n spring_v up_o within_o you_o and_o say_v the_o god_n who_o we_o serve_v be_v able_a to_o deliver_v we_o if_o not_o we_o be_v resolve_v to_o serve_v and_o worship_n the_o lord_n in_o nebuchadnezer_n time_n as_o you_o may_v read_v in_o the_o 3d_o of_o daniel_n how_o there_o be_v informer_n in_o the_o 8_o verse_n certain_a chaldaean_n come_v to_o accuse_v the_o jew_n in_o the_o 10_o verse_n thou_o o_o king_n make_v a_o decree_n that_o they_o that_o will_v not_o fall_v down_o and_o worship_v the_o image_n at_o the_o sound_n of_o the_o music_n shall_v be_v cast_v into_o the_o burning-fiery-furnace_n and_o so_o they_o go_v on_o and_o tell_v the_o king_n there_o be_v such_o three_o man_n which_o regard_v he_o not_o neither_o serve_v his_o god_n nor_o worship_v the_o image_n that_o he_o have_v set_v up_o then_o the_o king_n in_o his_o rage_n and_o fury_n command_v the_o man_n to_o be_v bring_v before_o he_o and_o he_o ask_v if_o these_o thing_n be_v true_a that_o they_o serve_v not_o his_o god_n nor_o worship_v the_o golden_a image_n which_o he_o have_v set_v up_o now_o if_o so_o be_v they_o will_v be_v ready_a at_o the_o sound_n of_o the_o music_n to_o fall_v down_o and_o worship_v the_o say_a image_n that_o he_o have_v make_v but_o if_o not_o in_o the_o same_o hour_n they_o shall_v be_v cast_v into_o the_o midst_n of_o the_o burning-fiery_a furnace_n now_o their_o answer_n be_v the_o god_n who_o they_o serve_v be_v able_a to_o deliver_v they_o but_o if_o not_o we_o will_v not_o bow_v and_o he_o do_v deliver_v they_o to_o his_o own_o praise_n and_o glory_n but_o they_o that_o cast_v they_o into_o the_o fire_n be_v slay_v with_o the_o flame_n but_o shadrah_n m●shach_n and_o abednego_n come_v out_o of_o the_o furnace_n without_o harm_n which_o do_v astonish_v the_o king_n and_o he_o bless_v the_o god_n of_o shadrach_n meshech_n and_o abednego_n now_o friend_n if_o such_o a_o work_n shall_v be_v bring_v forth_o through_o your_o faithfulness_n will_v it_o not_o make_v your_o heart_n glad_a that_o god_n shall_v be_v so_o honour_v by_o your_o faithfulness_n for_o if_o these_o man_n have_v shrink_v and_o bow_v the_o lord_n power_n have_v not_o be_v so_o manifest_v for_o the_o faithfulness_n of_o friend_n put_v a_o opportunity_n into_o the_o lord_n hand_n to_o make_v his_o power_n know_v for_o do_v not_o the_o lord_n raise_v up_o pharaoh_n to_o make_v his_o power_n know_v when_o moses_n lead_v the_o child_n of_o israel_n out_o of_o egypt_n pharo●h_n with_o his_o host_n follow_v in_o great_a haste_n and_o pursue_v they_o to_o the_o red-sea_n think_v to_o have_v destroy_v they_o ●ll_o and_o some_o begin_v to_o murmur_n against_o moses_n why_o he_o will_v bring_v they_o thither_o to_o be_v destroy_v yet_o moses_n his_o faith_n be_v in_o god_n and_o he_o bid_v they_o but_o stand_v still_o and_o see_v the_o salvation_n of_o god_n and_o the_o egyptian_n who_o they_o have_v see_v that_o day_n they_o shall_v never_o see_v again_o and_o so_o it_o come_v to_o pass_v for_o israel_n have_v a_o way_n through_o the_o sea_n but_o pharaoh_n and_o his_o host_n be_v drown_v and_o not_o a_o man_n escape_v now_o friend_n if_o those_o that_o be_v with_o moses_n shall_v have_v draw_v back_o to_o pharaoh_n in_o this_o seem_a distress_n think_v to_o go_v to_o moses_n again_o when_o the_o danger_n be_v over_o have_v they_o not_o run_v from_o their_o safety_n to_o their_o destruction_n so_o now_o friend_n none_o to_o draw_v back_o again_o neither_o to_o be_v slack_a in_o keep_v your_o meeting_n for_o he_o that_o draw_v back_o the_o lord_n soul_n have_v no_o pleasure_n in_o he_o and_o the_o back-slide_a in_o heart_n shall_v be_v fill_v with_o his_o own_o way_n and_o therefore_o friend_n be_v of_o a_o noble_a mind_n and_o valliant_n for_o the_o truth_n upon_o the_o earth_n the_o noble_a seed_n bring_v to_o be_v of_o a_o noble_a mind_n and_o friend_n it_o be_v convenient_a that_o trial_n come_v that_o the_o chaff_n may_v be_v separate_v from_o the_o wheat_n for_o they_o who_o be_v of_o this_o noble_a seed_n will_v not_o be_v treacherous_a nor_o false-hearted_a but_o have_v a_o faithful_a respect_n to_o the_o honour_n of_o god_n forever_o and_o observe_v in_o daniel_n day_n how_o that_o they_o can_v not_o bring_v he_o to_o suffer_v but_o concern_v the_o worship_n of_o his_o god_n so_o they_o can_v find_v nothing_o against_o we_o but_o concern_v the_o worship_n of_o our_o god_n for_o which_o bless_v be_v the_o name_n of_o the_o lord_n forever_o so_o a_o decree_n be_v make_v that_o whosoever_o ask_v a_o petition_n either_o of_o god_n or_o man_n for_o thirty_o day_n save_v of_o the_o king_n shall_v be_v cast_v into_o the_o den_n of_o lion_n and_o daniel_n be_v constant_a to_o pray_v to_o the_o lord_n three_o time_n a_o day_n with_o his_o window_n open_a towards_o jerusalem_n as_o his_o manner_n be_v now_o daniel_n may_v have_v shut_v his_o window_n and_o forbear_v to_o pray_v to_o his_o god_n for_o so_o many_o day_n but_o then_o how_o can_v the_o lord_n have_v appear_v in_o his_o deliverance_n if_o he_o have_v not_o keep_v to_o his_o worship_n as_o his_o manner_n be_v by_o which_o the_o name_n of_o the_o lord_n come_v to_o be_v exalt_v and_o he_o that_o make_v the_o decree_n command_v all_o to_o call_v upon_o the_o god_n of_o daniel_n so_o that_o you_o may_v see_v always_o it_o be_v faithfulness_n and_o constancy_n that_o bring_v honour_n to_o god_n and_o deliverance_n to_o themselves_o and_o destruction_n upon_o the_o adversary_n so_o friend_n stand_v in_o the_o fear_n and_o dread_a of_o god_n and_o you_o will_v become_v a_o dread_a to_o all_o nation_n what_o need_v you_o fear_v any_o but_o the_o lord_n god_n that_o make_v heaven_n and_o earth_n what_o will_v a_o live_a man_n be_v afraid_a of_o a_o dead_a man_n so_o you_o th●t_o be_v alive_a in_o christ_n jesus_n what_o need_v you_o fear_v they_o that_o be_v dead_a in_o adam_n in_o sin_n and_o transgression_n a_o body_n of_o sin_n and_o a_o body_n of_o death_n what_o need_v a_o live_a body_n be_v afraid_a of_o a_o dead_a body_n so_o friend_n be_v of_o a_o valiant_a mind_n they_o who_o be_v of_o the_o noble_a birth_n will_v be_v of_o a_o valiant_a mind_n and_o i_o know_v will_v give_v their_o appearance_n for_o god_n who_o have_v appear_v for_o we_o and_o in_o we_o and_o among_o we_o many_o comfortable_a and_o peaceable_a meeting_n we_o have_v enjoy_v wherein_o we_o have_v be_v refresh_v together_o and_o satisfy_v together_o and_o our_o heart_n make_v glad_a together_o in_o the_o enjoyment_n of_o the_o goodness_n of_o our_o god_n which_o be_v i_o know_v not_o want_v in_o this_o suffering_n time_n now_o in_o the_o consideration_n of_o these_o thing_n friend_n hold_v up_o your_o head_n for_o god_n he_o will_v be_v our_o deliverer_n i_o dare_v be_v bold_a to_o speak_v in_o the_o name_n of_o the_o lord_n that_o the_o lord_n will_v bring_v a_o calm_a for_o be_v the_o old_a world_n so_o rude_a and_o cruel_a as_o this_o generation_n they_o let_v noah_n build_v the_o ark_n and_o do_v not_o go_v about_o to_o make_v a_o spoil_n of_o his_o work_n though_o they_o be_v against_o he_o and_o call_v he_o old_z fool_z yet_o they_o let_v he_o alone_o with_o his_o work_n but_o this_o generation_n will_v not_o let_v the_o lord_n people_n

of_o noah_n warning_n of_o they_o what_o will_v he_o do_v to_o this_o generation_n that_o not_o only_o reject_v the_o warning_n of_o they_o that_o be_v call_v and_o choose_v of_o god_n to_o work_v his_o work_n but_o seek_v to_o destroy_v they_o i_o say_v how_o can_v the_o lord_n hold_v his_o hand_n but_o let_v it_o fall_v heavy_a upon_o those_o that_o have_v deal_v thus_o cruel_o with_o his_o people_n see_v he_o overthrow_v those_o that_o never_o deal_v so_o cruel_o so_o friend_n let_v your_o confidence_n be_v in_o the_o lord_n god_n that_o make_v heaven_n and_o earth_n trust_v in_o his_o

never_o leave_v nor_o forsake_v his_o heritage_n or_o where_o be_v there_o ever_o any_o that_o suffer_v for_o god_n but_o their_o enemy_n fall_v before_o they_o though_o they_o seek_v to_o ruin_v
