life_n then_o do_v the_o bryncher_n seem_v to_o be_v guilty_n of_o his_o death_n yea_o though_o he_o be_v of_o a_o lusty_a disposition_n and_o constitution_n of_o body_n consider_v the_o sundry_a

what_o great_a shame_n can_v be_v show_v then_o to_o weaken_v reason_n and_o understanding_n which_o be_v the_o principal_a gift_n that_o we_o receive_v of_o god_n to_o lee●_n the_o power_n to_o

to_o begin_v like_o ape_n &_o to_o end_v like_o ass_n to_o geve_v occasion_n of_o strife_n like_o wrathful_a boar_n and_o to_o yield_v unto_o the_o slaughter_n like_o weakling_n and_o calf_n to_o

woe_n be_v unto_o they_o that_o rise_v up_o early_o to_o follow_v drunkenness_n now_o this_o word_n woe_n in_o the_o holy_a scripture_n be_v common_o take_v for_o a_o grievous_a curse_n and_o

the_o way_n by_o reason_n of_o wine_n yea_o far_o out_o of_o the_o way_n through_o strong_a drink_n and_o solomon_n in_o his_o proverb_n have_v sundry_a passage_n against_o this_o loathsome_a vice_n as_o in_o the._n xx_o chap._n he_o say_v wine_n make_v a_o man_n scornful_a and_o strong_a drink_n cause_v a_o man_n to_o be_v unquiet_a who_o so_o delight_v therein_o shall_v not_o be_v wise_a and_o

forget_v the_o law_n and_o pervert_v the_o judgement_n of_o all_o poor_a man_n child_n the_o prophet_n amos_n in_o the_o six_o chapter_n reprove_v the_o prince_n of_o israel_n for_o wallow_v in_o vain_a delight_n reckon_v on_o the_o abomination_n of_o a_o droonkard_n in_o these_o word_n they_o drink_v wine_n in_o bowl_n say_v he_o and_o anoint_v themselves_o with_o chief_a oyntmennt_n but_o no_o man_n be_v sorry_a for_o the_o affliction_n of_o joseph_n micheas_n also_o in_o his_o second_o chapter_n taunt_a and_o reprove_v the_o chyldishnesse_n and_o ignorance_n of_o the_o people_n say_v if_o a_o man_n lie_v false_o say_v i_o will_v prophesy_v to_o thou_o of_o wine_n and_o strong_a drink_n that_o be_v a_o meet_a prophet_n for_o this_o people_n and_o the_o prophet_n abacuc_n in_o his_o second_o chapter_n seem_v to_o join_v the_o proud_a man_n and_o the_o droonkard_n together_o where_o he_o say_v yea_o in_o deed_n the_o proud_a man_n be_v as_o he_o that_o transgress_v by_o wine_n therefore_o shall_v he_o not_o endure_v because_o he_o have_v enlarge_v his_o desire_n as_o the_o hell_n and_o be_v as_o death_n and_o in_o the_o end_n of_o the_o same_o chapter_n he_o say_v woo_n

but_o to_o conclude_v this_o proposition_n although_o i_o may_v here_o allege_v very_o many_o other_o text_n of_o holy_a scripture_n which_o do_v express_o reprove_v this_o loathsome_a abomination_n i_o think_v it_o sufficient_a to_o recite_v the_o word_n of_o paul_n in_o the_o six_o chapter_n of_o his_o first_o epistle_n to_o the_o corinthian_n where_o amongste_o sundry_a other_o vice_n he_o pronounce_v plain_a sentence_n against_o droonkarde_n say_v that_o they_o shall_v not_o inherit_v the_o kingdom_n of_o god_n and_o in_o his_o five_o chapter_n to_o the_o galatian_n and_o to_o the_o ephesian_n he_o repeat_v in_o manner_n the_o self_n same_o word_n this_o be_v then_o the_o three_o branch_n of_o the_o fruit_n which_o grow_v by_o this_o beastly_a vice_n even_o the_o wrath_n of_o god_n and_o loss_n of_o the_o heavenly_a habitation_n now_o if_o these_o authority_n example_n counsel_n and_o commandment_n seem_v not_o sufficient_a to_o terrify_v we_o from_o fall_v into_o this_o
