unto_o he_o that_z y_z e_z land_n be_v not_o the_o chief_a heritage_n whereunto_o the_o child_n of_o abraham_n be_v to_o attain_v here_o therefore_o we_o have_v a_o sure_a record_n that_o although_o

i_o tell_v you_o this_o be_v a_o lesson_n very_o behooveful_a for_o we_o in_o these_o day_n although_o this_o law_n be_v but_o for_o the_o outward_a man_n yet_o be_v it_o god_n will_n that_o the_o

till_o the_o last_o judgement_n and_o have_v commit_v that_o charge_n to_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n yet_o be_v it_o his_o will_n that_o there_o shall_v be_v some_o resemblance_n of_o justice_n even_o in_o this_o earthly_a life_n true_a it_o be_v that_o it_o shall_v not_o come_v to_o perfection_n here_o and_o that_o the_o most_o part_n of_o such_o as_o shall_v be_v condemn_v at_o the_o

after_o that_o sort_n be_v not_o for_o naught_o he_o will_v not_o have_v they_o to_o be_v but_o as_o a_o shadow_n to_o scar_n babe_n and_o to_o be_v utter_o void_a of_o power_n but_o he_o will_v

that_o the_o body_n hang_v in_o the_o air_n be_v as_o a_o solemn_a record_n that_o such_o execution_n be_v not_o to_o be_v condemn_v neither_o ought_v the_o magistrate_n to_o be_v desirous_a to_o hide_v it_o as_o though_o they_o be_v murderer_n of_o such_o as_o they_o cause_v to_o be_v put_v to_o death_n but_o rather_o to_o set_v they_o out_o for_o a_o example_n as_o who_o will_v say_v we_o have_v do_v a_o sacrifice_n unto_o god_n it_o be_v our_o office_n it_o be_v our_o charge_n thus_o behove_v it_o we_o to_o do_v for_o if_o we_o shall_v spare_v man_n in_o this_o behalf_n we_o shall_v

thus_o much_o concern_v the_o first_o point_n now_o there_o be_v also_o a_o second_o point_n which_o be_v that_o the_o body_n must_v not_o hang_v in_o the_o air_n above_o one_o day_n and_o that_o be_v because_o such_o sight_n do_v in_o truth_n

but_o i_o have_v tell_v you_o already_o that_o we_o be_v no_o more_o bind_v thereunto_o by_o necessity_n in_o some_o country_n they_o have_v devise_v certain_a brotherhood_n who_o shall_v go_v and_o take_v down_o the_o body_n from_o the_o gibbet_n &_o bury_v they_o and_o true_o that_o be_v a_o fond_a devotion_n for_o they_o know_v not_o wherefore_o they_o do_v so_o the_o jew_n also_o be_v so_o bewitch_v with_o their_o own_o dotage_n that_o they_o think_v that_o the_o burial_n of_o they_o command_v in_o this_o place_n do_v concern_v the_o welfare_n of_o their_o soul_n likewise_o the_o

to_o turn_v away_o man_n continual_o to_o a_o multitude_n of_o lie_n god_n care_n be_v rather_o of_o we_o which_o be_v alyve_a as_o though_o he_o mean_v to_o set_v a_o mean_a between_o the_o rigour_n of_o justice_n and_o the_o gentleness_n which_o ought_v to_o be_v among_o us._n this_o mean_a therefore_o be_v well_o worthy_a to_o be_v mark_v for_o we_o ever_o swarâ—e_v aside_o to_o some_o

to_o do_v all_o manner_n of_o mischief_n without_o correction_n on_o the_o other_o side_n in_o mynd_v to_o be_v severe_a we_o run_v in_o danger_n of_o be_v too_o severe_a god_n therefore_o appoint_v a_o mean_a which_o be_v first_o of_o all_o that_o we_o shall_v punish_v the_o offence_n that_o deserve_v death_n and_o second_o to_o the_o end_n that_o justice_n shall_v be_v have_v in_o honour_n and_o that_o we_o shall_v not_o surmise_v any_o reprochefulnesse_n in_o it_o he_o will_v have_v the_o offender_n body_n hoist_v up_o into_o the_o air_n for_o man_n to_o look_v at_o as_o it_o be_v in_o way_n of_o warranty_n y_o it_o when_o a_o magistrate_n punish_v a_o offence_n he_o offer_v up_o a_o sacrifice_n acceptable_a in_o heaven_n &_o consequent_o which_o ought_v to_o be_v well_o take_v on_o earth_n yet_o for_o all_o this_o he_o will_v not_o have_v we_o to_o be_v too_o hard-hearted_a but_o always_o to_o retain_v still_o some_o pitifulnesse_n and_o compassion_n and_o when_o justice_n be_v so_o approve_a he_o will_v have_v the_o body_n to_o be_v bury_v yea_o even_o remoove_v from_o of_o the_o earth_n as_o a_o infection_n for_o why_o so_o long_o as_o a_o man_n body_n hang_v upon_o the_o gallows_n there_o be_v two_o thing_n see_v the_o one_o be_v that_o god_n have_v well_o provide_v for_o mankind_n in_o ordain_v the_o execution_n of_o justice_n and_o that_o malefactor_n shall_v not_o be_v spare_v that_o be_v one_o point_n another_o be_v that_o man_n may_v say_v thus_o with_o themselves_o lo_o here_o be_v a_o wicked_a deed_n do_v for_o these_o be_v token_n that_o the_o land_n have_v be_v defile_v therefore_o when_o a_o body_n be_v so_o hang_v up_o it_o be_v a_o sign_n of_o the_o defyl_n of_o the_o land_n by_o the_o commit_n of_o some_o robbery_n murder_n or_o other_o heinous_a crime_n when_o it_o be_v so_o let_v this_o also_o be_v ever_o mark_v god_n therefore_o intend_v to_o show_v that_o where_o justice_n be_v execute_v the_o fault_n be_v forgive_v and_o the_o country_n stand_v no_o long_o charge_v therewith_o but_o his_o wrath_n be_v pacify_v and_o as_o though_o the_o misdeed_n have_v be_v spare_v he_o will_v have_v the_o body_n bury_v thus_o you_o see_v how_o the_o execute_n of_o justice_n upon_o offender_n and_o wicked_a doer_n and_o the_o cut_n off_o of_o leaudenesse_n be_v a_o warrant_n that_o god_n vengeance_n shall_v not_o light_v upon_o the_o land_n now_o than_o we_o see_v in_o effect_n what_o god_n mean_v by_o his_o law_n also_o we_o see_v how_o the_o instruction_n continue_v still_o unto_o we_o though_o we_o have_v not_o the_o use_n of_o the_o law_n itself_o because_o the_o law_n command_v a_o thing_n whereunto_o we_o be_v no_o more_o bind_v since_o the_o come_n of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ._n so_o to_o be_v short_a this_o

when_o a_o man_n have_v give_v forty_o stripe_n he_o can_v not_o withhold_v himself_o from_o give_v one_o more_o and_o so_o by_o that_o mean_v he_o shall_v go_v beyond_o the_o law_n you_o say_v well_o
