honourable_a and_o heavenly_a deserve_n at_o our_o hand_n we_o can_v do_v it_o if_o our_o gracious_a prince_n to_o show_v her_o puissance_n against_o a_o foreign_a power_n shall_v call_v forth_o one_o

for_o his_o honour_n to_o be_v a_o choose_a and_o peculiar_a people_n unto_o himself_o to_o stand_v on_o his_o part_n to_o show_v forth_o his_o virtue_n and_o to_o be_v zealous_a of_o good_a work_n yea_o and_o that_o we_o may_v the_o better_o perform_v this_o service_n he_o have_v furnish_v we_o with_o his_o own_o armour_n and_o weapon_n yea_o and_o his_o own_o hand_n be_v with_o we_o too_o though_o all_o man_n see_v it_o not_o and_o shall_v not_o we_o now_o do_v valiant_o for_o our_o god_n and_o shall_v not_o we_o now_o endeavour_n our_o best_a to_o answer_v the_o expectation_n of_o our_o heavenly_a king_n o_o my_o dear_a brethren_n see_v the_o end_n of_o your_o call_n you_o be_v not_o call_v to_o show_v your_o own_o strength_n or_o your_o own_o virtue_n or_o your_o own_o

this_o zeal_n that_o we_o may_v know_v it_o and_o follow_v it_o this_o zeal_n as_o the_o spouse_n in_o the_o last_o chapter_n of_o the_o canticle_n teach_v we_o be_v no_o small_a matter_n but_o a_o most_o ardent_a and_o burn_a love_n unspeakable_a overcome_v all_o the_o affection_n in_o man_n love_n be_v strong_a as_o death_n 8.6_o and_o zeal_n be_v cruel_a as_o the_o grave_n the_o coal_n thereof_o be_v fiery_a coal_n and_o a_o vehement_a flame_n yea_o the_o flame_n of_o god_n as_o the_o hebrew_n word_n signify_v much_o water_n can_v quench_v love_n neither_o can_v the_o flood_n drown_v it_o now_o then_o belove_v you_o see_v the_o end_n of_o your_o redemption_n and_o calling_n it_o be_v not_o only_o to_o do_v good_a work_n but_o to_o be_v zealous_a of_o good_a work_n you_o be_v call_v and_o redeem_v to_o the_o heat_n and_o fire_n of_o good_a work_n you_o be_v call_v and_o redeem_v to_o such_o a_o burn_a love_n of_o they_o that_o nothing_o may_v quench_v it_o nay_o even_o as_o death_n and_o the_o grave_n overcome_v all_o thing_n so_o this_o zeal_n in_o we_o of_o good_a work_n shall_v overcome_v and_o cast_v down_o before_o we_o all_o the_o let_v and_o

of_o the_o lord_n not_o with_o gold_n and_o silver_n as_o saint_n peter_n speak_v but_o with_o the_o precious_a blood_n of_o his_o own_o son_n lay_v this_o unto_o your_o heart_n and_o stir_v up_o

as_o the_o apostle_n saint_n john_n write_v i_o call_v upon_o you_o little_a child_n because_o you_o be_v well_o acquaint_v with_o your_o father_n dear_a love_n and_o tenderness_n towards_o you_o i_o call_v upon_o you_o young_a man_n because_o your_o affection_n be_v strong_a in_o you_o and_o you_o be_v best_a able_a to_o bear_v the_o lord_n burden_n and_o i_o call_v upon_o you_o old_a man_n because_o you_o by_o reason_n of_o your_o long_a experience_n have_v most_o knowledge_n of_o your_o duty_n give_v the_o lord_n his_o due_a and_o right_n and_o abound_v in_o all_o manner_n of_o good_a

shall_v not_o depart_v from_o it_o pro._n 22.6_o when_o i_o begin_v to_o read_v this_o verse_n unto_o you_o i_o tell_v you_o it_o consist_v of_o two_o part_n of_o a_o precept_n and_o the_o reason_n of_o the_o precept_n hitherto_o i_o have_v speak_v of_o the_o precept_n and_o of_o the_o necessary_a circumstance_n belong_v unto_o it_o and_o now_o i_o be_o come_v to_o speak_v of_o the_o reason_n of_o it_o that_o so_o i_o may_v stir_v up_o the_o life_n of_o the_o precept_n in_o his_o work_n in_o you_o and_o when_o he_o be_v old_a he_o shall_v not_o depart_v from_o it_o that_o be_v if_o thou_o faithful_o instructe_v he_o in_o his_o way_n while_o he_o be_v young_a he_o shall_v have_v the_o benefit_n of_o it_o all_o his_o life_n after_o but_o now_o that_o parent_n may_v be_v compass_v about_o with_o a_o cloud_n of_o exhortation_n i_o have_v think_v good_a here_o not_o only_o to_o press_v forth_o the_o principal_a scope_n of_o this_o text_n but_o also_o to_o suck_v out_o of_o the_o bowel_n thereof_o the_o more_o hide_a and_o abstruse_a collection_n and_o to_o gather_v the_o like_a argument_n out_o of_o other_o scripture_n because_o the_o whole_a scripture_n be_v one_o and_o dare_v hand_n to_o itself_o 1._o the_o first_o reason_n which_o shall_v move_v parent_n to_o take_v in_o hand_n this_o duty_n of_o instruct_v their_o child_n in_o this_o trade_n of_o their_o way_n teach_v be_v draw_v from_o the_o necessity_n of_o the_o precept_n because_o every_o child_n natural_o be_v conceive_v and_o bear_v out_o of_o the_o way_n as_o the_o prophet_n david_n teach_v we_o 51.5_o psal._n 51.5_o behold_v i_o be_v bear_v in_o iniquity_n and_o in_o sin_n have_v my_o mother_n conceive_v i_o and_o the_o apostle_n saint_n paul_n say_v ephes._n 2._o 2.3_o that_o we_o be_v by_o nature_n the_o child_n of_o wrath_n 6.5_o and_o moses_n in_o the_o 6._o chapter_n of_o gen._n teach_v we_o that_o all_o the_o thought_n and_o imagination_n of_o man_n hart_n be_v continual_o evil_a and_o the_o apostle_n say_v 1._o cor._n 2._o that_o the_o natural_a man_n can_v perceive_v the_o thing_n which_o be_v of_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n 2.14_o and_o again_o rom._n 8._o he_o tell_v we_o that_o the_o wisdom_n of_o the_o flesh_n be_v enmity_n against_o god_n 7.8_o for_o it_o be_v not_o subject_a to_o the_o law_n of_o god_n neither_o indeed_o can_v be_v wherefore_o now_o you_o see_v plain_o how_o every_o mother_n child_n be_v bear_v into_o the_o world_n blind_a in_o his_o understanding_n froward_a in_o his_o will_n and_o affection_n corrupt_a in_o all_o the_o motion_n of_o his_o hart_n dead_a in_o the_o life_n of_o god_n &_o whole_o possess_v with_o sin_n so_o that_o except_o now_o his_o nature_n be_v change_v by_o good_a education_n he_o can_v possible_o apply_v himself_o unto_o any_o good_a way_n but_o he_o must_v needs_o all_o his_o life_n long_o run_v astray_o and_o in_o the_o end_n fall_v headlong_o into_o hell_n fire_n wherefore_o o_o you_o parent_n as_o you_o have_v give_v your_o child_n the_o worse_o so_o give_v they_o the_o better_a also_o as_o you_o have_v bring_v they_o forth_o the_o child_n of_o wrath_n and_o death_n so_o now_o teach_v they_o how_o they_o may_v become_v the_o child_n of_o grace_n and_o life_n teach_v your_o child_n in_o the_o trade_n of_o their_o way_n they_o must_v needs_o be_v teach_v for_o except_v their_o education_n and_o teach_n be_v better_a than_o their_o birth_n they_o be_v cast_v away_o for_o ever_o and_o they_o may_v curse_v their_o parent_n that_o ever_o they_o bring_v they_o into_o the_o world_n 2._o the_o second_o reason_n to_o move_v parent_n to_o this_o virtuous_a teach_n of_o their_o child_n teach_v be_v take_v from_o the_o opportunity_n thereof_o for_o if_o ever_o they_o will_v do_v their_o child_n good_a now_o they_o must_v do_v it_o while_o they_o be_v child_n the_o smyth_n must_v strike_v wile_n the_o iron_n be_v hot_a and_o the_o ploughman_n must_v plow_v while_o his_o ground_n will_v work_v and_o the_o sailor_n must_v sail_v when_o he_o have_v wind_n and_o tide_n and_o as_o you_o see_v every_o trade_n have_v his_o proper_a opportunity_n so_o this_o trade_n also_o of_o education_n have_v childhood_n for_o his_o fit_a time_n to_o work_v upon_o if_o you_o do_v not_o teach_v your_o child_n and_o train_n they_o up_o in_o good_a nurture_n while_o they_o be_v young_a all_o your_o labour_n shall_v be_v but_o lose_v afterwards_o you_o shall_v strike_v upon_o the_o cold_a iron_n you_o shall_v plow_v in_o the_o
