befall_v we_o in_o the_o world_n we_o have_v little_a cause_n to_o vex_v ourselves_o with_o care_n for_o that_o which_o do_v do_v we_o so_o much_o good_a 2_o god_n do_v many_o time_n make_v our_o

jer._n 24.8_o 9_o the_o jew_n in_o jeremies_n time_n which_o escape_v the_o captivity_n remain_v at_o home_n for_o their_o great_a hurt_n for_o they_o be_v drive_v into_o all_o the_o kingdom_n of_o

escape_v these_o great_a evil_n and_o at_o length_n be_v restore_v home_o again_o and_o enjoy_v their_o former_a liberty_n and_o land_n and_o in_o the_o like_a manner_n god_n do_v many_o time_n deal_v with_o we_o also_o for_o whereas_o we_o grieve_v at_o the_o untimely_a death_n of_o our_o child_n which_o we_o hope_v shall_v have_v be_v the_o staff_n of_o our_o old_a age_n and_o shall_v have_v inherit_v both_o our_o name_n and_o house_n yet_o we_o may_v observe_v that_o many_o child_n of_o as_o good_a hope_n as_o they_o ever_o be_v have_v prove_v such_o cross_n to_o their_o parent_n as_o that_o their_o father_n or_o mother_n have_v not_o stick_v to_o say_v of_o they_o will_v god_n he_o have_v never_o be_v bear_v thus_o to_o afflict_v his_o friend_n and_o undo_v himself_o or_o i_o

and_o again_o we_o think_v it_o a_o heavy_a case_n if_o a_o man_n be_v disease_v or_o dismember_v and_o either_o full_a of_o pain_n or_o deprive_v of_o some_o limb_n and_o yet_o it_o be_v not_o unusual_a that_o strength_n of_o body_n and_o soundness_n of_o limb_n do_v give_v occasion_n of_o a_o far_o great_a mischief_n so_o that_o we_o may_v sometime_o hear_v man_n say_v will_v god_n i_o have_v be_v sick_a in_o my_o bed_n or_o i_o will_v i_o have_v lose_v a_o leg_n or_o a_o arm_n when_o i_o go_v to_o such_o a_o place_n or_o begin_v such_o a_o work_n three_o we_o count_v it_o a_o lamentable_a thing_n if_o a_o man_n be_v rob_v by_o thief_n or_o impoverish_v by_o ill_a debtor_n or_o undermine_v by_o cunning_a lawyer_n or_o any_o way_n bring_v to_o penury_n or_o distress_n and_o yet_o we_o may_v note_v it_o in_o the_o world_n that_o many_o time_n riches_n prove_v 5.13_o prove_v eccles._n 5.13_o the_o hurt_n of_o the_o owner_n of_o they_o either_o they_o embolden_v they_o to_o

woe_n that_o they_o will_v say_v of_o they_o will_v god_n i_o have_v be_v bear_v to_o never_o a_o foot_n of_o land_n or_o i_o will_v i_o have_v live_v as_o such_o a_o cobbler_n or_o water-bearer_n do_v for_o than_o i_o have_v escape_v these_o mischief_n and_o may_v have_v have_v some_o comfort_n in_o my_o life_n and_o the_o like_a may_v be_v say_v of_o other_o the_o like_a case_n concern_v all_o which_o we_o must_v consider_v that_o what_o we_o see_v afterward_o and_o wish_v for_o it_o when_o it_o be_v too_o late_o that_o god_n see_v aforehand_o and_o provide_v for_o it_o before_o it_o come_v and_o hence_o we_o may_v have_v a_o good_a meditation_n to_o comfort_v we_o in_o all_o distress_n for_o if_o god_n do_v take_v away_o our_o child_n that_o be_v dear_a unto_o we_o as_o our_o life_n we_o shall_v think_v it_o be_v perhaps_o because_o he_o forsee_v that_o if_o they_o shall_v survive_v they_o will_v work_v either_o woe_n to_o we_o or_o ruin_n to_o themselves_o and_o if_o he_o lay_v sickness_n or_o lameness_n or_o maimednesse_n upon_o our_o body_n it_o may_v be_v he_o do_v it_o because_o he_o forsee_v that_o if_o we_o have_v health_n and_o strength_n and_o soundness_n of_o limb_n they_o will_v be_v a_o occasion_n of_o some_o great_a mischief_n and_o if_o he_o send_v we_o want_v and_o poverty_n and_o loss_n in_o our_o estate_n and_o deal_n it_o be_v because_o he_o forsee_v that_o wealth_n will_v breed_v we_o more_o woe_n than_o it_o be_v worth_a but_o sure_o it_o be_v that_o most_o time_n god_n do_v lay_v affliction_n either_o because_o he_o will_v procure_v we_o some_o good_a or_o prevent_v some_o evil_n by_o they_o and_o if_o so_o why_o shall_v we_o mourn_v or_o take_v think_v for_o that_o which_o tend_v to_o our_o welfare_n and_o great_a comfort_n 2_o a_o second_o meditation_n meditat._v 2_o to_o work_n patience_n and_o to_o mitigate_v care_n be_v if_o we_o consider_v the_o time_n and_o season_n that_o god_n take_v for_o deliver_v and_o relieve_v of_o his_o servant_n and_o that_o be_v this_o that_o when_o all_o other_o help_v fail_v than_o god_n be_v most_o ready_a to_o help_v and_o then_o be_v he_o near_o to_o relieve_v when_o man_n be_v

7.6_o paul_n 2_o cor._n 7.6_o comfort_v those_o that_o be_v cast_v down_o and_o he_o say_v 10.14_o say_v psal_n 68.5_o &_o psal_n 10.14_o david_n be_v a_o father_n of_o the_o fatherless_a and_o a_o

consider_v two_o thing_n 1_o god_n great_a mercy_n in_o help_v the_o distress_a he_o bring_v man_n up_o out_o of_o the_o grave_n he_o judge_v his_o people_n that_o be_v he_o right_v they_o from_o their_o adversary_n and_o he_o be_v a_o father_n to_o pity_v they_o and_o a_o judge_n to_o defend_v their_o just_a cause_n 2_o the_o object_n of_o this_o mercy_n or_o who_o they_o be_v that_o god_n send_v such_o help_n unto_o and_o they_o be_v those_o who_o be_v bring_v down_o to_o the_o grave_n that_o be_v who_o be_v in_o the_o deep_a misery_n and_o those_o who_o power_n be_v go_v that_o be_v who_o have_v no_o mean_n to_o help_v themselves_o and_o those_o who_o be_v cast_v down_o who_o be_v fatherless_a or_o widow_n and_o who_o be_v forsake_v of_o their_o parent_n and_o near_a kindred_n and_o be_v destitute_a of_o all_o friend_n and_o helper_n and_o hereby_o we_o may_v see_v that_o god_n do_v especial_o show_v mercy_n when_o man_n be_v in_o the_o great_a misery_n and_o that_o he_o do_v upon_o three_o ground_n or_o for_o three_o cause_n 1_o because_o he_o delight_v to_o show_v mercy_n and_o mercy_n still_o have_v misery_n for_o its_o object_n and_o be_v then_o most_o ready_a when_o there_o be_v the_o great_a need_n and_o from_o hence_o it_o be_v that_o when_o the_o israelite_n be_v oppress_v by_o the_o egyptian_n and_o 2.23_o and_o exod._n 2.23_o sigh_v by_o reason_n of_o the_o bondage_n and_o cry_v then_o their_o cry_n come_v up_o unto_o god_n by_o reason_n of_o the_o bondage_n that_o which_o make_v they_o to_o cry_v make_v he_o to_o help_v that_o be_v the_o sore_a bondage_n which_o they_o suffer_v and_o 22.23_o and_o exo._n 22.23_o if_o thou_o afflict_v the_o widow_n and_o the_o fatherless_a say_v god_n and_o they_o cry_v unto_o i_o i_o will_v sure_o hear_v their_o cry_n and_o it_o be_v give_v for_o a_o reason_n of_o god_n special_a mercy_n towards_o israel_n 14.26_o israel_n 2_o king_n 14.26_o because_o he_o see_v the_o affliction_n of_o israel_n that_o it_o be_v very_o bitter_a for_o there_o be_v not_o any_o shut_v

thing_n which_o we_o care_v or_o labour_n for_o for_o 12.25_o for_o matt._n 6.27_o luk._n 12.25_o which_o of_o you_o say_v our_o saviour_n by_o take_v thought_n can_v add_v one_o cubite_fw-la to_o

to_o give_v and_o so_o in_o like_a sort_n we_o may_v reason_v of_o all_o other_o the_o like_a case_n which_o of_o we_o by_o sit_v in_o a_o corner_n though_o we_o shall_v weep_v our_o belly_n full_a can_v by_o this_o cark_n care_n either_o cure_n a_o disease_n in_o our_o body_n or_o make_v up_o a_o breach_n in_o our_o estate_n or_o pacify_v the_o broil_n in_o our_o house_n or_o bring_v to_o life_n again_o a_o decease_a friend_n no._n these_o be_v thing_n which_o if_o god_n do_v not_o give_v they_o we_o can_v have_v they_o thus_o this_o care_n and_o vexation_n of_o spirit_n be_v both_o needless_a without_o use_n and_o fruitless_a without_o effect_n and_o in_o both_o respect_v we_o may_v say_v that_o this_o irregular_a care_n do_v cumber_v we_o and_o not_o help_v we_o ii_o immoderate_a care_n do_v make_v our_o life_n to_o be_v without_o comfort_n for_o god_n 104.15_o god_n psal_n 104.15_o have_v give_v we_o both_o bread_n to_o strengthen_v we_o and_o wine_n to_o make_v

the_o meaning_n of_o which_o saying_n be_v that_o god_n do_v not_o only_o bestow_v on_o we_o necessary_a thing_n that_o may_v preserve_v life_n but_o comfortable_a thing_n also_o that_o may_v make_v it_o joyful_a and_o will_v not_o only_o have_v his_o servant_n to_o live_v but_o while_o they_o live_v to_o rejoice_v also_o but_o care_n take_v away_o this_o joy_n they_o be_v ever_o accompany_v with_o sadness_n and_o sorrow_n and_o 12.25_o and_o prov._n 15.13_o and_o 12.25_o by_o sorrow_n in_o the_o heart_n say_v solomon_n the_o spirit_n be_v break_v &_o a_o 17.22_o a_o prov._n 17.22_o

say_v of_o such_o a_o man_n that_o he_o enjoy_v not_o life_n while_o he_o possess_v it_o and_o that_o his_o very_a soul_n do_v but_o serve_v to_o make_v his_o pain_n sensible_a nay_o sorrow_n do_v not_o only_o deprive_v man_n life_n of_o the_o comfort_n which_o god_n have_v give_v he_o but_o do_v even_o deprive_v the_o man_n of_o life_n itself_o for_o to_o say_v nothing_o of_o those_o who_o be_v oppress_v with_o care_n do_v with_o their_o own_o hand_n hasten_v their_o death_n this_o sadness_n in_o the_o soul_n do_v by_o degree_n shorten_v our_o time_n and_o that_o when_o we_o think_v

iii_o immoderate_a care_n do_v make_v man_n unfit_a for_o god_n service_n and_o that_o in_o two_o respect_n 1_o because_o he_o that_o be_v deject_v with_o grief_n can_v be_v cheerful_a about_o any_o

shall_v serve_v the_o lord_n with_o joyfulnes_n and_o gladness_n of_o heart_n 2_o care_n make_v we_o unfit_a to_o serve_v god_n because_o the_o heart_n be_v take_v up_o with_o earthly_a thought_n have_v no_o leisure_n to_o attend_v to_o heavenly_a thing_n but_o as_o he_o that_o be_v in_o a_o deep_a study_n or_o be_v muse_v on_o some_o matter_n with_o intention_n of_o mind_n see_v not_o the_o

of_o the_o world_n carry_v he_o from_o the_o church_n to_o other_o affair_n and_o they_o do_v so_o whole_o take_v up_o his_o thought_n that_o be_v think_v no_o more_o on_o that_o which_o he_o have_v

13.22_o that_o matt._n 13.22_o the_o care_n of_o this_o world_n do_v choke_v the_o word_n and_o warn_v we_o to_o 21.34_o to_o luk._n 21.34_o take_v heed_n lest_o our_o heart_n be_v overcharge_v with_o
