that_o he_o simple_o say_v they_o think_v that_o i_o be_o forsake_v now_o this_o declare_v that_o they_o which_o seek_v after_o such_o gloss_n be_v not_o only_o ignorant_a but_o also_o very_a

there_o be_v no_o more_o religion_n in_o they_o then_o in_o dog_n and_o bruit_n beast_n for_o they_o know_v not_o how_o dear_o the_o son_n of_o god_n pay_v for_o their_o salvation_n and_o that_o which_o be_v worse_o they_o mock_v themselves_o like_o villain_n as_o they_o be_v therefore_o we_o must_v absolute_o conclude_v that_o when_o our_o lord_n jesus_n be_v bring_v to_o this_o extremity_n

yield_v unto_o god_n his_o father_n thus_o we_o see_v what_o the_o principal_a point_n be_v that_o we_o shall_v look_v unto_o when_o as_o we_o will_v be_v assure_v of_o our_o salvation_n which_o be_v that_o if_o we_o have_v commit_v many_o offence_n rebellion_n and_o iniquity_n against_o god_n that_o all_o shall_v be_v bury_v because_o our_o lord_n jesus_n have_v by_o his_o obedience_n justify_v we_o &_o make_v we_o acceptable_a with_o god_n his_o father_n now_o wherein_o consist_v this_o obedience_n but_o that_o christ_n jesus_n although_o he_o suffer_v a_o cruel_a &_o terrible_a death_n yet_o be_v content_v to_o yield_v himself_o unto_o it_o for_o if_o he_o have_v feel_v no_o hardness_n nor_o strive_v in_o it_o his_o obedience_n have_v be_v nothing_o but_o inasmuch_o as_o our_o lord_n jesus_n abhor_v death_n by_o nature_n yea_o and_o that_o it_o be_v a_o fearful_a thing_n to_o appear_v before_o the_o judgement_n seat_n of_o god_n in_o the_o behalf_n of_o all_o wretched_a

acknowledge_v his_o perfect_a obedience_n and_o therein_o we_o have_v very_o good_a matter_n to_o glory_n 8._o hebr._n 5.7_o 8._o as_o the_o apostle_n in_o the_o epistle_n to_o the_o hebrew_n say_v that_o the_o fear_n of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n be_v hear_v but_o however_o it_o be_v it_o be_v meet_v that_o he_o shall_v suffer_v and_o abide_v so_o hard_a &_o weighty_a a_o cause_n yea_o clean_o against_o all_o worldly_a affection_n and_o desire_v and_o therefore_o it_o behoove_v that_o god_n his_o father_n shall_v so_o acquaint_v he_o with_o it_o to_o the_o end_n as_o he_o say_v his_o obedience_n may_v be_v know_v we_o see_v then_o that_o the_o apostle_n namely_o specifi_v that_o it_o must_v needs_o be_v that_o our_o lord_n jesus_n shall_v be_v wonderful_o afeard_a for_o

that_o we_o be_v redeem_v by_o the_o blood_n of_o jesus_n christ_n because_o he_o offer_v up_o his_o body_n for_o a_o sacrifice_n &_o we_o also_o see_v why_o it_o be_v say_v that_o his_o flesh_n be_v spiritual_a meat_n &_o drink_v 6.55_o john_n 6.55_o but_o it_o be_v so_o speak_v by_o reason_n of_o our_o grossness_n and_o because_o we_o be_v canal_o mind_v the_o holy_a ghost_n send_v we_o back_o unto_o that_o that_o be_v visible_o to_o be_v perceive_v in_o the_o death_n of_o jesus_n christ_n that_o by_o it_o we_o may_v have_v a_o assure_a pawn_n of_o our_o salvation_n and_o yet_o this_o take_v not_o away_o the_o thing_n that_o be_v show_v we_o out_o of_o other_o place_n neither_o do_v it_o derogate_v from_o this_o point_n that_o the_o death_n and_o passion_n of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n

this_o place_n to_o wit_n that_o the_o son_n of_o god_n have_v not_o only_o suffer_v in_o body_n so_o cruel_a &_o tormentrous_a a_o death_n as_o already_o have_v be_v see_v but_o be_v also_o touch_v to_o the_o quick_a whenas_o he_o be_v to_o abide_v such_o horrible_a assault_n as_o if_o god_n have_v forsake_v he_o for_o to_o say_v the_o truth_n as_o he_o take_v upon_o he_o our_o cause_n as_o have_v be_v say_v it_o must_v also_o needs_o be_v that_o he_o must_v feel_v the_o condemnation_n which_o be_v due_a for_o wretched_a sinner_n for_o by_o our_o sin_n we_o be_v as_o people_n estrange_v

of_o sinner_n be_v and_o this_o be_v out_o of_o all_o doubt_n that_o god_n the_o father_n never_o forsake_v jesus_n christ_n yet_o notwithstanding_o it_o must_v needs_o be_v that_o he_o shall_v

to_o understande_v that_o when_o our_o lord_n jesus_n be_v drive_v to_o this_o extremity_n as_o if_o god_n his_o father_n have_v cut_v all_o hope_n of_o life_n clean_o from_o he_o it_o be_v as_o we_o

that_o that_o may_v be_v say_v be_v it_o possible_a that_o jesus_n christ_n shall_v be_v so_o fearful_o trouble_v see_v he_o be_v perfection_n itself_o for_o this_o seem_v to_o derogate_v from_o the_o

this_o sentence_n to_o wit_n that_o the_o death_n of_o the_o son_n of_o god_n shall_v not_o be_v unprofitable_a but_o shall_v yield_v a_o most_o excellent_a fruit_n for_o the_o salvation_n of_o the_o

shall_v not_o suffer_v only_o in_o his_o body_n but_o in_o his_o soul_n also_o now_o we_o know_v that_o this_o say_n to_o be_v satisfy_v or_o to_o be_v content_v import_v or_o carry_v with_o it_o a_o great_a desire_n for_o many_o thing_n shall_v come_v to_o pass_v which_o shall_v touch_v we_o no_o whit_n and_o we_o overslip_v they_o yea_o and_o although_o they_o be_v for_o our_o commodity_n yet_o

that_o he_o have_v not_o the_o principal_a or_o else_o that_o he_o have_v not_o the_o whole_a but_o the_o prophet_n show_v that_o the_o son_n of_o god_n shall_v be_v thorough_o satisfy_v never_o

and_o so_o be_v reconcile_v unto_o god_n for_o the_o obtain_n of_o the_o heavenly_a inheritance_n to_o be_v short_a we_o see_v here_o that_o our_o lord_n jesus_n never_o respect_v his_o own_o person_n but_o be_v ravish_v with_o the_o love_n of_o we_o wherein_o he_o seek_v his_o whole_a contentment_n and_o felicity_n as_o if_o that_o have_v be_v his_o only_a desire_n love_n and_o care_n now_o we_o

understande_v that_o it_o be_v not_o in_o vain_a that_o he_o suffer_v such_o cruel_a torment_n for_o us._n and_o this_o be_v the_o thing_n which_o we_o be_v to_o consider_v of_o out_o of_o this_o place_n as_o for_o the_o second_o point_n which_o be_v propound_v it_o be_v here_o show_v that_o jesus_n christ_n shall_v not_o only_o be_v beat_v scourge_v and_o afflict_v by_o the_o hand_n of_o

that_o he_o shall_v see_v the_o fruit_n of_o his_o stripe_n affliction_n and_o death_n as_o the_o prophet_n have_v before_o say_v but_o also_o the_o fruit_n of_o the_o travail_n and_o grief_n of_o his_o soul_n for_o the_o word_n which_o he_o use_v import_v as_o much_o and_o therefore_o he_o mean_v to_o express_v that_o jesus_n christ_n be_v not_o only_o crucify_v after_o he_o have_v abode_n the_o gréevous_a torment_n in_o his_o body_n but_o that_o he_o shall_v go_v a_o great_a deal_n far_o to_o wit_n that_o he_o shall_v be_v heavy_a and_o sorry_a for_o we_o and_o suffer_v the_o sorrow_n of_o death_n and_o be_v even_o subject_a thereto_o for_o our_o justification_n and_o to_o say_v true_o to_o what_o purpose_n have_v it_o be_v if_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n have_v but_o open_o suffer_v &_o in_o the_o sight_n of_o the_o world_n for_o if_o he_o have_v suffer_v but_o in_o body_n he_o shall_v then_o have_v be_v a_o redeemer_n of_o body_n only_o but_o because_o the_o principal_a matter_n why_o we_o shall_v believe_v in_o he_o be_v that_o we_o may_v feel_v and_o be_v full_o persuade_v that_o death_n shall_v be_v no_o more_o deadly_a unto_o we_o and_o that_o we_o be_v free_v from_o the_o curse_n of_o god_n it_o be_v meet_v that_o our_o lord_n jesus_n shall_v feel_v these_o point_n in_o himself_o &_o so_o come_v before_o god_n may_v be_v as_o a_o wretched_a malefactor_n

our_o lord_n jesus_n shall_v be_v drive_v thereto_o for_o our_o deliverance_n and_o this_o be_v it_o which_o the_o prophet_n at_o this_o present_a declare_v unto_o us._n and_o here_o we_o see_v a_o great_a deal_n the_o better_a how_o god_n have_v love_v we_o and_o what_o the_o infinite_a treasure_n of_o his_o grace_n and_o goodness_n be_v which_o he_o have_v pour_v out_o upon_o us._n moreover_o we_o may_v also_o very_a well_o understande_v what_o care_n and_o zeal_n our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n have_v over_o our_o salvation_n when_o as_o he_o force_v not_o to_o make_v his_o own_o body_n

that_o he_o have_v thereby_o sweat_v water_n and_o blood_n 22.3_o luk._n 22.3_o and_o that_o the_o angel_n come_v down_o to_o comfort_v he_o this_o can_v not_o choose_v but_o be_v a_o wonderful_a

moreover_o we_o be_v present_o to_o gather_v out_o of_o this_o place_n that_o although_o we_o must_v die_v we_o must_v
we_o may_v be_v exempt_a from_o it_o and_o that_o now_o in_o the_o midst_n of_o all_o our_o weakness_n we_o shall_v have_v nevertheless_o life_n everlasting_a which_o must_v be_v obtain_v by_o faith_n

it_o may_v be_v say_v that_o the_o death_n and_o passion_n of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n shall_v be_v unprofitable_a now_o this_o be_v a_o blasphemy_n not_o to_o be_v bear_v to_o think_v that_o

all_o it_o may_v well_o enough_o be_v say_v that_o this_o be_v as_o a_o man_n will_v say_v a_o very_a jest_n wherefore_o the_o prophet_n bring_v we_o back_o to_o this_o consideration_n that_o we_o

in_o the_o suffering_n of_o jesus_n christ_n we_o have_v a_o testimony_n of_o the_o infinite_a love_n of_o god_n as_o if_o he_o will_v lay_v open_a his_o hart_n and_o show_v we_o his_o bowel_n to_o

in_o our_o sin_n for_o the_o more_o that_o god_n show_v himself_o lyberal_a in_o the_o person_n of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n so_o much_o the_o more_o ought_v we_o to_o feel_v what_o a_o

this_o be_v here_o the_o meaning_n of_o the_o prophet_n that_o jesus_n christ_n have_v sustain_v the_o wonds_o which_o be_v due_a to_o us._n wherein_o he_o show_v that_o we_o can_v never_o lively_o

nevertheless_o be_v as_o be_v may_v we_o see_v that_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n call_v none_o but_o such_o as_o do_v labour_n and_o be_v heavy_a lade_v by_o this_o he_o exclude_v all_o such_o as_o

which_o be_v thus_o give_v over_o to_o all_o wickedness_n can_v possible_o come_v near_o unto_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n for_o who_o shall_v give_v we_o a_o entrance_n unto_o he_o but_o the_o

desire_v nothing_o else_o but_o the_o help_n of_o the_o people_n let_v we_o then_o see_v how_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n behave_v himself_o for_o if_o it_o be_v meet_v that_o he_o shall_v suffer_v

yet_o without_o doubt_n his_o affection_n shall_v come_v nothing_o nigh_o unto_o god_n and_o yet_o not_o be_v corrupt_a as_o if_o adam_n be_v not_o thus_o pervert_v as_o he_o be_v but_o have_v

such_o a_o one_o we_o see_v be_v our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n for_o we_o know_v that_o his_o affection_n be_v without_o spot_n or_o blot_n and_o they_o all_o be_v square_v unto_o the_o obedience_n of_o god_n but_o yet_o because_o he_o have_v take_v our_o nature_n upon_o he_o he_o be_v subject_a to_o fear_v and_o to_o this_o terror_n whereof_o we_o even_o now_o speak_v and_o unto_o care_n and_o such_o like_a we_o can_v see_v this_o in_o we_o no_o more_o then_o in_o pud_o water_v a_o man_n can_v judge_v of_o anything_o and_o thus_o we_o see_v how_o these_o earthly_a affection_n cause_v we_o to_o float_v from_o one_o side_n to_o a_o other_o and_o so_o toss_v we_o as_o that_o god_n have_v need_n to_o uphold_v we_o but_o the_o affection_n which_o we_o that_o be_v descend_v of_o adam_n

nevertheless_o when_o it_o so_o fall_v out_o that_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n have_v endure_v such_o anguish_n it_o be_v a_o sign_n that_o he_o so_o love_v we_o as_o that_o he_o forget_v himself_o

hereupon_o the_o evangelist_n tell_v that_o there_o be_v a_o vessel_n full_a of_o vinegar_n yea_o as_o before_o have_v be_v say_v mingle_v with_o gall_n and_o that_o one_o take_v a_o réed_n or_o as_o

we_o feel_v in_o despite_n of_o our_o tooth_n that_o we_o be_v altogether_o malicious_a and_o unthankful_a wherefore_o it_o be_v impossible_a that_o god_n shall_v be_v merciful_a unto_o we_o and_o

and_o mark_v beside_o why_o the_o prophet_n add_v that_o god_n will_v make_v he_o subject_a to_o infirmity_n this_o word_n infirmity_n have_v a_o large_a scope_n in_o the_o scripture_n for_o it_o

why_o he_o shall_v be_v esteem_v and_o have_v in_o honour_n we_o must_v also_o call_v to_o mind_v the_o thing_n that_o have_v be_v before_o recite_v to_o wit_n that_o he_o be_v beat_v and_o scourge_v by_o the_o hand_n of_o god_n suffer_v the_o horrible_a anguish_n of_o his_o judgement_n &_o in_o his_o body_n bear_v the_o fearful_a torment_n that_o may_v be_v and_o over_o and_o beside_o all_o

otherwise_o then_o have_v be_v determine_v before_o by_o the_o secret_a counsel_n of_o god_n and_o therefore_o it_o be_v not_o for_o naught_o that_o the_o prophet_n bring_v we_o always_o back_o to_o this_o that_o we_o must_v lift_v our_o mind_n unto_o god_n &_o acknowledge_v that_o he_o be_v judge_n of_o the_o world_n will_v be_v satisfy_v for_o our_o sin_n &_o offence_n even_o in_o the_o

we_o must_v not_o cease_v more_o &_o more_o to_o comforme_v ourselves_o thereto_o and_o for_o that_o more_o lively_a express_v here_o of_o see_v why_o the_o prophet_n go_v on_o further_a and_o say_v that_o he_o will_v make_v his_o soul_n a_o offering_n for_o sin_n to_o wit_n that_o jesus_n christ_n will_v forget_v his_o own_o life_n for_o the_o redeem_n of_o our_o life_n &_o the_o price_n of_o our_o sin_n and_o iniquity_n here_o the_o prophet_n again_o set_v before_o we_o the_o willing_a obedience_n of_o the_o son_n of_o god_n for_o as_o he_o have_v say_v that_o as_o it_o be_v the_o will_n of_o the_o father_n he_o shall_v be_v afflict_v even_o so_o likewise_o he_o now_o say_v that_o the_o son_n yield_v himself_o willing_o thereto_o thrust_v himself_o forward_o to_o become_v a_o

and_o therefore_o it_o must_v necessary_o fall_v out_o that_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n shall_v yield_v and_o offer_v up_o himself_o to_o the_o death_n which_o he_o suffer_v for_o without_o that_o as_o yesterday_o be_v declare_v our_o rebellion_n have_v never_o be_v repare_v before_o god_n but_o when_o he_o offer_v up_o his_o soul_n to_o wit_n that_o he_o be_v press_v and_o ready_a to_o suffer_v the_o condemnation_n that_o we_o deserve_v in_o this_o we_o may_v see_v that_o we_o have_v by_o his_o death_n full_a assurance_n of_o salvation_n and_o this_o he_o himself_o say_v in_o the_o

although_o we_o be_v altogether_o exempt_a thereof_o yet_o ought_v we_o to_o think_v still_o of_o it_o to_o the_o end_n we_o may_v groan_v by_o reason_n of_o our_o sin_n and_o therefore_o magnify_v

because_o jesus_n christ_n abase_v and_o humble_v himself_o for_o we_o and_o for_o our_o salvation_n and_o although_o he_o be_v not_o rob_v of_o his_o divine_a majesty_n yet_o lie_v it_o hyd_fw-we for_o a_o time_n and_o be_v never_o perceive_v by_o any_o man_n and_o this_o be_v in_o sum_n that_o which_o the_o prophet_n here_o handle_v as_o concern_v the_o pain_n and_o grief_n of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n now_o we_o see_v herein_o that_o he_o forget_v himself_o as_o it_o be_v and_o never_o care_v for_o himself_o and_o the_o reason_n be_v because_o he_o be_v altogether_o give_v to_o save_v we_o and_o so_o answer_v for_o we_o both_o in_o body_n and_o soul_n and_o be_v our_o only_a pledge_n and_o in_o this_o we_o see_v that_o the_o very_a cur_n who_o will_v at_o this_o day_n abolish_v this_o doctrine_n have_v neither_o faith_n nor_o religion_n in_o they_o but_o bark_n at_o it_o like_o mastiff_n they_o know_v not_o why_o nor_o wherefore_o and_o although_o our_o popish_a hypocrite_n who_o

be_v not_o only_o condemn_v of_o pilot_n be_v a_o earthly_a judge_n to_o the_o end_n we_o may_v be_v pardon_v before_o god_n his_o father_n and_o not_o only_o crucify_v that_o we_o may_v be_v

will_v receive_v we_o &_o that_o we_o shall_v be_v acceptable_a unto_o he_o and_o it_o be_v meet_a that_o jesus_n christ_n shall_v be_v plunge_v in_o these_o horror_n which_o he_o feel_v it_o be_v also_o meet_a that_o he_o who_o be_v the_o immaculate_a lamb_n of_o god_n shall_v be_v make_v like_o unto_o a_o wretched_a malefactor_n and_o that_o he_o who_o be_v the_o mirror_n &_o pattern_n of_o

the_o meaning_n of_o isaiah_n be_v when_o he_o say_v that_o jesus_n christ_n must_v see_v travel_n &_o grief_n in_o his_o soul_n howbeit_o we_o see_v that_o he_o be_v notwithstanding_o well_o

of_o in_o this_o place_n now_o the_o prophet_n go_v on_o far_a and_o say_v that_o by_o his_o knowledge_n my_o righteous_a servant_n shall_v justify_v many_o as_o for_o this_o word_n

will_v he_o show_v himself_o for_o our_o redemption_n and_o therefore_o we_o may_v bold_o lift_v up_o our_o head_n and_o overcome_v whatsoever_o grief_n may_v come_v unto_o us._n by_o this_o we_o

forsooth_o he_o do_v all_o this_o to_o this_o end_n and_o purpose_n that_o he_o will_v gather_v we_o together_o into_o his_o kingdom_n whenas_o he_o shall_v appear_v and_o therefore_o this_o his_o come_n be_v as_o it_o be_v to_o seal_v and_o ratify_v all_o whatsoever_o he_o have_v do_v and_o endure_v for_o our_o salvation_n now_o this_o be_v even_o sufficient_a to_o stay_v we_o for_o the_o resist_n of_o all_o the_o temptation_n in_o the_o world_n but_o because_o we_o be_v so_o frail_a and_o inconstant_a as_o that_o we_o can_v believe_v the_o thing_n which_o god_n himself_o say_v saint_n paul_n now_o use_v a_o strange_a kind_n of_o argument_n the_o better_a to_o confirm_v we_o in_o this_o hope_n whereunto_o he_o have_v exhort_v we_o in_o the_o person_n of_o the_o thessalonian_o which_o be_v that_o god_n will_v not_o be_v so_o light_o set_v by_o by_o the_o contemner_n of_o his_o gospel_n who_o make_v no_o reckon_n of_o his_o heavenly_a majesty_n neither_o will_v he_o suffer_v his_o creature_n to_o lift_v themselves_o up_o against_o he_o &_o to_o withstand_v he_o thus_o we_o see_v by_o how_o much_o more_o we_o shall_v be_v confirm_v in_o the_o hope_n of_o our_o salvation_n see_v that_o god_n have_v a_o interest_n therein_o &_o be_v his_o own_o cause_n and_o this_o be_v a_o point_n which_o we_o be_v diligent_o to_o observe_v for_o although_o as_o i_o have_v already_o say_v god_n exceed_o assure_v we_o that_o he_o have_v great_a care_n of_o our_o salvation_n yet_o our_o nature_n be_v so_o wonderful_a mistrustful_a as_o that_o we_o continual_o stand_v in_o doubt_n but_o when_o it_o be_v set_v down_o unto_o we_o the_o god_n will_v defend_v his_o own_o right_n and_o not_o suffer_v we_o to_o tread_v his_o majesty_n under_o foot_n this_o be_v a_o doctrine_n which_o shall_v make_v we_o full_o assure_v and_o resolute_a and_o beside_o god_n show_v we_o such_o favour_n in_o join_v his_o glory_n with_o our_o salvation_n as_o that_o there_o be_v a_o inseparable_a bond_n between_o the_o one_o and_o the_o other_o for_o do_v not_o we_o see_v a_o infallible_a assurance_n that_o our_o lord_n jesus_n will_v come_v to_o give_v we_o rest_v and_o quietness_n because_o it_o can_v otherwise_o be_v but_o that_o god_n will_v mainteyn_fw-mi his_o majesty_n against_o the_o pride_n and_o enmity_n of_o man_n and_o therefore_o let_v we_o diligent_o mark_v that_o jesus_n christ_n can_v maintain_v the_o glory_n of_o his_o father_n but_z that_o he_o must_v eftsoon_o declare_v himself_o to_o be_v our_o redeemer_n and_o these_o thing_n as_o i_o have_v say_v can_v be_v sunder_v wherefore_o we_o herein_o see_v the_o infinite_a love_n of_o our_o god_n towards_o his_o faithful_a one_o whenas_o he_o conjoin_v himself_o in_o â—uch_o sort_n with_o they_o for_o as_o he_o can_v possible_o forget_v his_o own_o glory_n no_o more_o can_v he_o also_o forget_v our_o salvation_n and_o as_o he_o will_v show_v his_o power_n to_o be_v revenge_v of_o all_o such_o as_o resist_v he_o even_o so_o will_v he_o likewise_o punish_v all_o those_o that_o have_v unjust_o afflict_v his_o choose_a people_n thus_o we_o see_v what_o s._n paul_n his_o meaning_n be_v when_o as_o he_o say_v that_o jesus_n christ_n will_v come_v to_o render_v vengeance_n to_o all_o those_o which_o have_v not_o know_v god_n and_o obey_v his_o gospel_n as_o if_o he_o shall_v have_v say_v behold_v your_o enemy_n which_o persecute_v you_o now_o you_o be_v in_o doubt_n whether_o god_n regard_v your_o affliction_n and_o whether_o he_o have_v compassion_n of_o you_o or_o not_o for_o the_o remedy_n of_o they_o what_o think_v you_o that_o god_n make_v no_o reckon_n to_o maintain_v and_o defend_v his_o glory_n now_o as_o the_o adversary_n afflict_v you_o for_o cleave_v unto_o the_o gospel_n even_o so_o likewise_o will_v god_n in_o the_o defence_n of_o his_o own_o cause_n be_v your_o protector_n and_o defendor_n and_o by_o the_o way_n s._n paul_n also_o give_v we_o here_o in_o this_o place_n many_o profitable_a advertisemente_n for_o when_o he_o speak_v of_o the_o vengeance_n which_o be_v prepare_v for_o our_o enemy_n he_o say_v that_o jesus_n christ_n will_v come_v with_o the_o angel_n of_o his_o power_n and_o in_o flame_a fire_n but_o to_o what_o end_n forsooth_o to_o confirm_v his_o say_n to_o wit_n that_o the_o enemy_n of_o his_o truth_n say_v he_o may_v sustain_v their_o punishment_n both_o before_o god_n and_o his_o majesty_n as_o if_o he_o shall_v have_v say_v sure_o you_o can_v no_o more_o comprehend_v the_o torment_n which_o the_o faithless_a shall_v suffer_v then_o we_o do_v see_v the_o glory_n of_o god_n for_o when_o we_o hear_v the_o glory_n of_o god_n speak_v of_o we_o know_v it_o to_o be_v without_o end_n and_o measure_n and_o therefore_o we_o ought_v to_o wonder_v at_o it_o even_o so_o fare_v it_o with_o the_o horrible_a vengeance_n which_o be_v prepare_v for_o all_o the_o faithless_a see_v god_n must_v show_v forth_o his_o power_n upon_o they_o for_o since_o his_o majesty_n as_o i_o have_v say_v be_v inestimable_a therefore_o must_v their_o torment_n be_v also_o incomprehensible_a for_o our_o cause_n and_o thus_o much_o for_o this_o point_n moreover_o when_o s._n paul_n speak_v of_o infidel_n and_o of_o the_o enemy_n of_o god_n he_o say_v that_o they_o know_v he_o not_o nor_o yet_o obey_v his_o gospel_n or_o that_o they_o be_v
