most_o high_a god_n even_o there_o will_v the_o righteous_a judge_n execute_v his_o fury_n to_o take_v vengeance_n of_o all_o his_o bloody_a enemy_n in_o this_o world_n in_o this_o earth_n where_o

soul_n on_o the_o other_o side_n of_o death_n and_o so_o in_o terror_n and_o fear_n of_o death_n thou_o die_v and_o in_o torment_n thou_o shall_v rise_v at_o the_o great_a day_n as_o in_o the_o next_o chapter_n thou_o shall_v hear_v and_o read_v at_o large_a so_o that_o i_o can_v but_o admire_v the_o wonderful_a wisdom_n of_o my_o god_n that_o notwithstanding_o the_o pleasure_n and_o pomp_n of_o this_o world_n belong_v only_o to_o the_o seed_n of_o cain_n yet_o he_o give_v they_o a_o bitter_a cup_n to_o drink_v at_o last_o which_o potion_n make_v the_o devil_n afraid_a and_o to_o tremble_v at_o the_o thought_n of_o that_o day_n by_o which_o they_o be_v not_o only_o bridle_v from_o their_o great_a cruelty_n and_o tyranny_n they_o will_v impose_v upon_o the_o seed_n of_o faith_n but_o also_o the_o thought_n of_o death_n do_v in_o some_o measure_n out-top_n their_o pleasure_n and_o greatness_n so_o that_o their_o life_n in_o this_o their_o only_a heaven_n be_v not_o much_o better_a than_o our_o life_n in_o this_o our_o only_a hell_n for_o though_o they_o have_v fullness_n and_o such_o as_o we_o have_v want_v yet_o we_o have_v peace_n and_o they_o have_v war_n yea_o oftentimes_o sad_a torment_n to_o think_v what_o will_v become_v of_o their_o soul_n when_o as_o the_o seed_n of_o faith_n know_v what_o he_o be_v here_o what_o he_o shall_v be_v in_o the_o grave_n and_o what_o he_o shall_v be_v at_o the_o resurrection_n even_o glorify_v with_o his_o saviour_n so_o if_o you_o serious_o lie_v to_o heart_n the_o vast_a difference_n of_o the_o seed_n of_o faith_n and_o the_o seed_n of_o cain_n upon_o their_o bed_n of_o sickness_n or_o hour_n of_o death_n it_o will_v cause_v admiration_n as_o thus_o the_o departure_n of_o the_o seed_n of_o cain_n out_o of_o this_o world_n be_v as_o much_o as_o if_o a_o prince_n shall_v depart_v not_o only_o from_o his_o love_a wife_n and_o pretty_a child_n but_o be_v banish_v from_o his_o crown_n and_o kingdom_n never_o to_o enjoy_v it_o more_o and_o also_o where_o he_o be_v banish_v he_o be_v shut_v up_o prisoner_n all_o the_o the_o time_n of_o his_o life_n even_o so_o be_v ●●_o death_n in_o this_o world_n he_o must_v leave_v not_o only_o all_o his_o society_n but_o the_o pleasure_n of_o this_o his_o kingdom_n where_o he_o have_v delight_n as_o much_o as_o heart_n can_v wish_v and_o in_o the_o grave_a his_o soul_n and_o body_n lie_v uncapable_a of_o either_o joy_n or_o sorrow_n and_o then_o at_o the_o great_a day_n of_o our_o savior_n appearance_n thou_o shall_v be_v raise_v up_o thy_o body_n thy_o hell_n thy_o soul_n thy_o devil_n shut_v up_o close_a prisoner_n world_n without_o end_n now_o death_n be_v unto_o the_o seed_n of_o faith_n as_o a_o messenger_n of_o glad_a tiding_n in_o that_o it_o free_v he_o from_o the_o cruelty_n and_o oppression_n of_o the_o devil_n the_o seed_n of_o cain_n and_o take_v he_o from_o all_o his_o hardship_n and_o want_n that_o he_o have_v undergo_v by_o live_v upright_o in_o this_o strange_a kingdom_n and_o then_o he_o know_v that_o all_o the_o time_n he_o be_v in_o the_o grave_n there_o be_v no_o remembrance_n of_o good_a or_o evil_n and_o as_o soon_o as_o ever_o his_o god_n come_v he_o shall_v be_v raise_v to_o meet_v he_o in_o the_o air_n with_o his_o mighty_a angel_n where_o he_o shall_v have_v a_o kingdom_n that_o one_o hour_n enjoyment_n of_o that_o will_v be_v more_o than_o ten_o thousand_o time_n ten_o thousand_o the_o great_a substance_n of_o glory_n can_v be_v attain_v unto_o for_o ten_o million_o of_o year_n in_o this_o perish_a world_n thus_o in_o brief_a you_o have_v the_o difference_n of_o the_o two_o seed_n what_o triumph_n the_o seed_n of_o faith_n have_v in_o death_n over_o the_o seed_n of_o
