of_o the_o ingrateful_a and_o wicked_a world_n how_o do_v this_o care_n now_o appear_v in_o keep_v and_o preserve_v we_o wherein_o do_v it_o appear_v that_o god_n watch_v over_o we_o wherefore_o we_o must_v lift_v up_o our_o eye_n to_o the_o hill_n where_o the_o lord_n have_v publish_v his_o will_n and_o his_o word_n there_o must_v we_o harken_v what_o he_o speak_v out_o of_o his_o holy_a temple_n namely_o that_o he_o neither_o sleep_v nor_o forsake_v we_o as_o the_o flesh_n perverse_o judge_v but_o keep_v we_o care_v for_o we_o and_o watch_v over_o we_o this_o word_n faith_n lay_v hold_v on_o

therefore_o he_o extol_v his_o own_o god_n mammon_n that_o he_o may_v have_v always_o money_n at_o hand_n and_o what_o so_o ever_o may_v maintain_v the_o pleasure_n of_o this_o life_n this_o vanity_n be_v it_o that_o the_o flesh_n so_o magnify_v but_o he_o see_v not_o what_o shall_v follow_v when_o he_o must_v die_v and_o forsake_v his_o riches_n and_o therefore_o this_o keeper_n this_o watchman_n which_o keep_v and_o preserve_v we_o by_o faith_n and_o by_o the_o word_n he_o nothing_o regard_v let_v we_o therefore_o which_o do_v believe_v and_o see_v this_o miserable_a blindness_n of_o the_o world_n be_v sure_o persuade_v that_o this_o hide_a &_o invisible_a protection_n under_o the_o which_o we_o abide_v by_o the_o power_n of_o faith_n and_o of_o the_o word_n be_v almighty_a for_o to_o this_o the_o holy_a scripture_n lead_v we_o devil_n and_o teach_v that_o the_o kingdom_n of_o the_o devil_n be_v the_o kingdom_n of_o sin_n and_o death_n and_o therefore_o every_o moment_n he_o cause_v man_n to_o sin_n murther_v they_o seduce_v and_o bring_v they_o into_o error_n or_o at_o least_o go_v about_o by_o all_o mean_n so_o to_o do_v thus_o be_v we_o always_o in_o death_n in_o

our_o hand_n our_o foot_n and_o our_o life_n also_o and_o for_o as_o much_o as_o these_o thing_n do_v many_o time_n chance_n and_o when_o we_o little_a doubt_n or_o think_v thereof_o our_o wife_n our_o child_n or_o our_o friend_n die_v or_o else_o fall_v into_o some_o great_a danger_n it_o be_v a_o minifest_z token_n that_o the_o kingdom_n of_o the_o devil_n be_v the_o kingdom_n of_o death_n and_o sin_n in_o this_o kingdom_n because_o we_o live_v while_o we_o be_v in_o this_o world_n hereof_o it_o come_v that_o we_o often_o time_n offend_v and_o fall_v into_o many_o sin_n thus_o david_n become_v both_o a_o adulterer_n and_o a_o murderer_n so_o that_o hereby_o we_o may_v learn_v that_o the_o kingdom_n of_o the_o devil_n in_o this_o world_n be_v to_o advance_v sin_n to_o murder_v &_o destroy_v now_o therefore_o that_o we_o yet_o live_v and_o breath_n that_o we_o fall_v not_o daily_o into_o grievous_a and_o horrible_a sin_n it_o be_v the_o great_a mercy_n goodness_n and_o
flesh_n although_o they_o be_v compass_v about_o with_o such_o high_a and_o mighty_a mountain_n as_o touch_v the_o spirit_n as_o satan_n can_v never_o surmount_v yet_o touch_v the_o flesh_n and_o the_o old_a man_n they_o lie_v open_a on_o every_o side_n to_o the_o dart_n of_o satan_n and_o of_o the_o world_n for_o god_n by_o these_o mean_n will_v afflict_v and_o exercise_v the_o flesh_n that_o

or_o overcome_v rest_v in_o this_o assure_a hope_n and_o trust_v that_o the_o lord_n will_v never_o forsake_v we_o but_o that_o we_o be_v in_o the_o bosom_n of_o the_o father_n and_o be_v close_v

other_o until_o at_o the_o length_n by_o the_o death_n of_o the_o flesh_n all_o misery_n shall_v cease_v and_o have_v a_o end_n this_o verse_n therefore_o make_v much_o for_o our_o comfort_n
