C. for Octavian Pulleyn at the Kings head in Little-Britain 1669. To Sir John Monson Knight of the Honourable Order of the Bath and Baronet SIr I have not without smiling observed how some doating Dogmatists of late pretending to a Gravity some Centuries higher then the Age they live in have scouled upon intitling Epistles and by an affected Morosity have attempted to explode this honest way of Dedication I like not the humour at all it hath too much of the Proud or the Peevish or both in it These sullen Sirs under pretence that they are afraid to be thought to fawn upon others do most notoriously flatter themselves He is certainly the Grand Opinator that dares face this Age of Vertuoso's single and venture abroad with no better countenance then his own Let Brutes creep into the World without help to Convoy a Youngling into its first light is nearer of kin to Humanity Away then with such rude severities let them be Tubb'd up with old Reprobate Philosophy Give me a Patron and if I may chuse give me him that none can give but your self that is your self A Lincolnshire Dedication would not should not miss Sir John Monson you stand Title-Page to your Country every Letter of your Name is great and Capital among us These Sheets Sir were voted to you long since but could not till now pass some difficulties that lay betwixt them and the Press And truely I gratulate their stay for had they come out hastily they would have look'd like some good Mood or fit of Devotion to you whereas now they speak me constant and that to serve you is my meditation Live Great Exemplar of Piety Prudence and Loyalty and whatever may intitle to Glory and Vertue and live again Live in your self and live in your son all that know you both hope so pray so there 's but that one Copy of you but it is a fair one a full one and may happy Posterity speak you both to the World Honour Blessing and immortality be upon your Name These are no seldom ingredients in the prayers of Sir Your faithful devoted Servant Edw. Boteler A SERMON Preached in the Cathedral Church of Lincoln on the tenth Sunday after Trinity Aug. 19. 1666. IT cost me no pains to seek out a Text for this great Assembly the Gospel for the day brought it to my hands there you have lately heard it read there you may again see it written Luk. 19.42 Dicens Quia si cognovisses tu quidem in hac die tua quae ad pacem tibi Saying If thou hadst known even thou at least in this thy day the things which belong unto thy peace Saying And whose saying is it That would be known It is the first word of the verse and calls for our first enquiry lest we make an immethodical entry a breach upon the Text and do it wrong But there 's no danger of that if we consult the words immediately foregoing they point at him and direct us to him He they say beheld the City and wept over it He But who is that Look a little higher and you have him He was a King a blessed King a King that came fairly by it that came in God's Name Blessed be the King that cometh in the Name of the Lord Ver. 38. v. 38. Do you not yet see him plain enough but would you a more particular account of him You have him named and may see how he was mounted v. 35. They cast their garments upon the Colt and set Jesus thereon You have him attended and may hear how he was applauded v. 37. At the descent of the Mount of Olives the whole multitude of the Disciples began to rejoyce and to praise God with a loud voice As if they over-heard that call of Zechary Zech. 9.9 Rejoyce greatly O Daughter of Zion shout O Daughter of Hierusalem behold thy King cometh unto thee We have found then who He is but we find him in a strange posture one would think the holy Jesus is weeping weeping even then when the multitude of his friends and followers were tripudiating and in a transport of joy because of him Such are all joys on earth they have their mixtures and allays pure joy and uninterrupted is the reserve of Heaven The Inhabitants of the New Hierusalem are only thus priviledged Rev. 21.4 to have all tears wiped from their eyes and know no more death nor sorrow nor crying nor any more pain When we have climbed the holy Hill we are above the reach of trouble whilst we are passing the valley of Baca Psa 84.6 the Pools are filled with water filled till they run over He beheld the City and wept over it And wept And why wept Valentinus indeed the Ecclesiastical History tells us like a Dotard fancied a God weeping when it rained and laughing when the Sun shined But how comes a Cloud in the face of the Sun whence is it that this Well of Life at the same place sends forth sweet water and bitter Strange that tears should flow from the fountain of joy Ludolph vit Christi O but Fons pietatis lachrymas continere non poterat He was such a Fountain of piety and pity that he could not look with dry eyes upon the insolent sins and ingruent desolations of the Daughter of Sion Isa 53.4 Surely he hath born our griefs and carried our sorrows Nec planxit aedificia parietum sed subversionem animarum He bewailed not so much their City as their souls It was not so much the goodly stones of their houses as the ungodly stone in their hearts which was the object of his tears It is a rare affection and worthy our imitation to be solicitous for the precious souls of men Blessed be that passion that hath a sense of their sins and sad estates who have none of their own When Saul was grown so bad that Samuel declined all converse with him would not come at him which was a long time before his death Veruntamen lugebat 1 Sam. 15.35 Neverless Samuel mourned for Saul And what Bottle big enough to hold the tears which were spent upon this wretched people 2 King 8.12 Elisha wept because of the evil which Hazael would do unto the children of Israel Jeremy because of that they suffered under the Caldeans his Soul wept in secret Jer. 13.17 and his eye wept sore because the Lords Flock was carried away captive And as if he could never mourn enough unless he were melted he would be turned
