some_o difference_n betwixt_o israel_n case_n and_o we_o but_o yet_o our_o danger_n be_v not_o the_o less_o for_o this_o but_o rather_o the_o great_a for_o open_a enemy_n we_o may_v either_o hide_v ourselves_o from_o or_o else_o make_v preparation_n against_o whereas_o there_o be_v no_o defence_n neither_o escape_n unless_o heaven_n assist_v when_o man_n work_v under_o ground_n and_o lay_v in_o

again_o show_v the_o danger_n if_o the_o lord_n have_v not_o be_v on_o our_o side_n they_o have_v swallow_v we_o up_o quick_a like_a as_o when_o the_o earth_n open_v and_o swallow_v up_o korah_n and_o his_o company_n or_o like_v as_o when_o fire_n fall_v down_o from_o heaven_n sudden_o upon_o sodom_n and_o consume_v the_o inhabitant_n or_o like_v as_o when_o a_o hungry_a lion_n tear_v his_o prey_n

no_o more_o mercy_n in_o our_o adversary_n than_o in_o those_o creature_n either_o the_o lion_n or_o the_o whale_n or_o fire_n or_o water_n or_o the_o earth_n when_o it_o cleave_v asunder_o and_o sink_v under_o our_o foot_n and_o i_o may_v add_v no_o more_o mercy_n than_o in_o the_o devil_n for_o his_o child_n they_o be_v act_v by_o his_o spirit_n and_o his_o work_n they_o undertake_v which_o be_v to_o destroy_v we_o have_v have_v experience_n of_o their_o bloody_a hand_n and_o cruel_a nature_n martyrol_n who_o have_v slay_v thousand_o of_o those_o they_o call_v heretic_n and_o have_v

psalm_n that_o signify_v this_o which_o we_o be_v further_a to_o take_v notice_n of_o as_o that_o which_o express_v the_o danger_n for_o it_o be_v say_v their_o wrath_n be_v kindle_v against_o we_o and_o true_o not_o asleep_o little_o do_v our_o enemy_n rage_n but_o even_o like_o the_o fire_n of_o a_o furnace_n or_o like_o the_o fire_n of_o hell_n itself_o and_o they_o rage_v so_o still_o for_o

our_o romish_a adversary_n have_v be_v long_o vex_v so_o have_v they_o as_o long_o hope_v for_o a_o day_n of_o vengeance_n wherein_o they_o may_v satiate_v their_o fury_n and_o no_o question_n it_o will_v be_v like_o hungry_a dog_n or_o like_a lion_n that_o have_v be_v long_o tie_v up_o without_o meat_n by_o devour_v as_o they_o have_v often_o make_v it_o manifest_a enough_o by_o show_v their_o

there_o be_v yet_o something_o more_o in_o the_o psalm_n which_o express_v the_o danger_n and_o that_o be_v the_o say_n our_o soul_n be_v escape_v as_o a_o bird_n out_o of_o the_o snare_n of_o the_o

the_o wrath_n of_o any_o enemy_n be_v hot_a than_o that_o of_o we_o papist_n who_o have_v all_o along_o exercise_v the_o sharp_a severity_n now_o a_o man_n look_v back_o upon_o the_o danger_n which_o
