magistrate_n be_v in_o great_a danger_n of_o pride_n because_o the_o lord_n after_o he_o have_v exalt_v they_o immediate_o set_v down_o matter_n of_o humiliation_n this_o may_v be_v prove_v by_o

be_v very_o prone_a to_o forget_v themselves_o a_o magistrate_n shall_v remember_v 3_o thing_n which_o may_v abate_v his_o pride_n first_o that_o he_o rule_v man_n second_o that_o he_o rule_v they_o

the_o slanderer_n and_o the_o crafty_a fox_n the_o philosopher_n move_v a_o question_n whether_o a_o man_n need_v friend_n more_o in_o adversity_n then_o in_o prosperity_n he_o determine_v that_o

in_o danger_n of_o pride_n this_o doctrine_n teach_v the_o magistrate_n two_o duty_n the_o one_o be_v prayer_n the_o other_o vigilancy_n concern_v prayer_n the_o magistrate_n must_v pray_v with_o david_n psal_n 36.11_o that_o the_o foot_n of_o pride_n come_v not_o against_o he_o and_o how_o can_v that_o magistrate_n be_v but_o proud_a that_o be_v not_o much_o in_o prayer_n for_o prayer_n teach_v he_o whence_o he_o have_v receive_v all_o thing_n no_o marvel_n then_o though_o magistrate_n be_v so_o haughty_a see_v they_o practise_v prayer_n so_o little_a concern_v vigilancy_n the_o magistrate_n as_o he_o must_v pray_v against_o pride_n so_o must_v he_o watch_v against_o this_o sin_n for_o pride_n creep_v even_o into_o good_a action_n it_o be_v like_o the_o juie_n which_o grow_v up_o with_o the_o tree_n and_o in_o the_o end_n kill_v it_o so_o pride_n grow_v up_o with_o good_a action_n and_o at_o the_o length_n destroy_v they_o and_o so_o i_o proceed_v to_o death_n which_o be_v the_o magistrate_n humiliation_n xerxes_n as_o herodotus_n report_v behold_v his_o army_n think_v himself_o happy_a but_o by_o and_o by_o he_o weep_v then_o artabanus_n ask_v he_o this_o

they_o know_v that_o they_o shall_v not_o rule_v in_o the_o life_n to_o come_v as_o they_o do_v in_o this_o life_n hecuba_n say_v it_o grieve_v i_o to_o be_v a_o servant_n among_o the_o dead_a see_v
