wherefore_o isaiah_n call_v the_o apostle_n arrow_n and_o likewise_o zachary_n the_o meaning_n than_o be_v this_o it_o be_v the_o gift_n of_o god_n to_o reign_v at_o home_n in_o peace_n without_o

of_o the_o common_a weal_n but_o because_o the_o magistrate_n if_o he_o must_v needs_o make_v war_n shall_v neither_o presume_v of_o himself_o nor_o yet_o despair_n whether_o he_o have_v many_o

help_v and_o victory_n say_v lord_n in_o thy_o hand_n be_v strength_n and_o victory_n be_v thou_o my_o helper_n fight_v thou_o for_o i_o like_a as_o on_o the_o other_o side_n if_o in_o the_o

through_o our_o overthrow_n it_o be_v thy_o will_n to_o punish_v our_o sin_n behold_v here_o i_o be_o such_o a_o confidence_n although_o it_o be_v but_o in_o the_o magistrate_n the_o guide_n or_o

his_o office_n and_o calling_n will_v glad_o have_v live_v in_o peace_n together_o with_o his_o people_n but_o this_o can_v not_o ammon_n suffer_v wherefore_o jephta_n see_v that_o he_o be_v

come_v not_o of_o himself_o but_o of_o the_o lord_n as_o his_o only_a gift_n so_o king_n david_n have_v many_o and_o notable_a victory_n over_o his_o enemy_n one_o after_o a_o other_o by_o what_o

in_o these_o thing_n therefore_o he_o pray_v that_o god_n will_v give_v he_o victory_n and_o hope_v to_o receive_v the_o same_o no_o otherwise_o then_o at_o his_o hand_n alone_o upon_o this_o

in_o the_o gate_n he_o set_v forth_o the_o former_a similitude_n more_o plain_o and_o by_o the_o quiver_n he_o understand_v the_o common_a weal_n as_o in_o the_o verse_n go_v before_o by_o arrow_n he_o understand_v young_a man_n as_o if_o he_o say_v that_o be_v a_o happy_a prince_n and_o that_o be_v a_o happy_a common_a weal_n which_o have_v this_o blessing_n and_o know_v it_o to_o be_v the_o

god_n as_o the_o text_n say_v god_n create_v male_a and_o female_a he_o create_v they_o say_v the_o scripture_n to_o signify_v that_o they_o be_v not_o their_o own_o governor_n and_o creator_n but_o both_o male_a &_o female_a be_v the_o creature_n of_o god_n afterwards_o he_o add_v more_o over_o and_o he_o bless_v they_o say_v increase_n and_o multiply_v out_o of_o this_o place_n of_o genesis_n be_v this_o verse_n of_o the_o psalm_n take_v for_o in_o that_o god_n give_v unto_o we_o child_n it_o be_v no_o work_n of_o we_o but_o it_o be_v the_o blessing_n of_o god_n notwithstanding_o the_o world_n although_o it_o have_v continual_a experience_n of_o this_o blessing_n do_v neither_o understand_v nor_o consider_v the_o same_o for_o the_o procreation_n of_o child_n because_o it_o be_v a_o daily_a benefit_n and_o a_o continual_a blessing_n be_v nothing_o esteem_v thus_o the_o world_n wallow_v in_o voluptuousness_n filthy_a lust_n and_o pleasure_n and_o these_o inestimable_a benefit_n wherein_o it_o live_v and_o walk_v it_o neither_o know_v nor_o regard_v this_o be_v moreover_o to_o be_v note_v that_o god_n do_v not_o so_o confuse_o bless_v man_n as_o he_o bless_v other_o creature_n but_o he_o adorn_v man_n with_o a_o peculiar_a blessing_n to_o the_o end_n we_o may_v understand_v that_o it_o be_v the_o gift_n of_o god_n to_o have_v son_n &_o daughter_n and_o that_o neither_o the_o husband_n shall_v attribute_v to_o himself_o any_o thing_n as_o though_o he_o make_v his_o wife_n friutefull_a nor_o the_o wife_n shall_v attribute_v any_o thing_n to_o herself_o as_o though_o she_o conceive_v through_o her_o own_o strength_n and_o the_o benefit_n of_o nature_n but_o shall_v learn_v that_o these_o be_v in_o deed_n heavenly_a and_o divine_a work_n therefore_o some_o time_n we_o see_v that_o healthful_a and_o beautiful_a woman_n couple_v with_o strong_a and_o healthful_a husband_n and_o live_v in_o great_a wealth_n and_o pleasure_n be_v barren_a and_o fruitless_o notwithstanding_o whereby_o god_n will_v show_v that_o to_o beget_v and_o to_o bring_v forth_o child_n be_v the_o blessing_n of_o god_n &_o come_v not_o of_o the_o power_n of_o man_n or_o the_o strength_n of_o nature_n contrariwise_o a_o other_o man_n that_o live_v poor_o &_o hardly_o can_v get_v a_o good_a meal_n meat_n have_v a_o house_n full_a of_o child_n it_o be_v a_o true_a say_n therefore_o of_o the_o german_n when_o they_o speak_v of_o their_o child_n do_v say_v god_n have_v give_v i_o child_n but_o although_o this_o say_n be_v in_o every_o man_n mouth_n yet_o be_v there_o very_a few_o that_o know_v what_o this_o blessing_n be_v or_o esteem_v it_o as_o they_o shall_v do_v because_o it_o be_v overwhelm_v and_o darken_v with_o inordinate_a lust_n and_o other_o filthiness_n of_o the_o flesh_n with_o labour_n and_o travel_n with_o trouble_n misery_n and_o calamity_n these_o thing_n i_o say_v do_v hide_v and_o darken_v this_o heavenly_a benediction_n so_o that_o it_o seem_v to_o be_v now_o not_o a_o benediction_n but_o rather_o a_o malediction_n for_o when_o parent_n die_v and_o leave_v their_o child_n without_o help_n and_o succour_n when_o man_n see_v their_o child_n or_o their_o wife_n stubborn_a intractable_a and_o disobedient_a etc_n etc_n it_o seem_v to_o they_o that_o the_o malediction_n far_o pass_v the_o benediction_n wherefore_o the_o scripture_n call_v we_o back_o to_o the_o consideration_n and_o behold_v of_o the_o matter_n itself_o and_o the_o substance_n of_o matrimony_n which_o be_v the_o blessing_n of_o god_n that_o in_o behold_v the_o same_o we_o may_v overcome_v what_o misery_n and_o calamity_n so_o ever_o we_o find_v in_o matrimony_n and_o here_o appear_v our_o infirmity_n and_o incredulity_n for_o this_o be_v the_o nature_n of_o we_o all_o that_o one_o discommodity_n do_v grieve_v we_o more_o than_o a_o hundred_o commodity_n can_v make_v we_o to_o rejoice_v we_o see_v that_o he_o which_o have_v a_o healthful_a body_n be_v more_o trouble_v with_o a_o push_n or_o a_o boil_v in_o his_o knee_n or_o in_o his_o elbow_n then_o joyful_a for_o the_o health_n of_o his_o whole_a body_n beside_o according_a to_o the_o dutch_a proverb_n if_o thou_o carry_v a_o man_n to_o rome_n upon_o thy_o shoulder_n and_o hurt_v he_o never_o so_o little_a when_o thou_o set_v he_o down_o thou_o lose_v all_o thy_o thanks_n example_n hereof_o we_o see_v also_o in_o unthankful_a child_n that_o when_o their_o parent_n have_v bring_v they_o up_o with_o great_a charge_n either_o they_o desire_v the_o death_n of_o their_o parent_n or_o else_o they_o be_v disobedient_a and_o forget_v all_o the_o benefit_n bestow_v upon_o they_o so_o it_o come_v to_o pass_v also_o in_o matrimony_n that_o the_o benediction_n of_o god_n be_v darken_v and_o overwhelm_v with_o the_o malediction_n as_o the_o world_n count_v it_o the_o holy_a ghost_n therefore_o do_v here_o notable_o set_v forth_o and_o amplify_v this_o blessing_n to_o the_o end_n we_o shall_v rather_o behold_v the_o author_n and_o creator_n himself_o than_o those_o trouble_n wherewith_o this_o holy_a kind_n of_o life_n be_v hide_v and_o overwhelm_v let_v we_o therefore_o diligent_o set_v forth_o this_o word_n and_o in_o that_o let_v we_o rest_v which_o we_o read_v in_o genesis_n and_o he_o bless_v they_o with_o this_o word_n let_v we_o arm_v and_o

the_o giver_n of_o this_o blessing_n how_o so_o ever_o the_o matter_n fall_v out_o be_v it_o well_o or_o evil_a and_o i_o will_v assure_o persuade_v myself_o that_o this_o work_n please_v god_n for_o

be_v they_o never_o so_o great_a they_o that_o lack_v or_o neglect_v the_o word_n and_o be_v without_o the_o fear_n of_o god_n can_v not_o be_v thus_o persuade_v of_o the_o state_n of_o matrimony_n but_o they_o think_v that_o man_n and_o wife_n be_v couple_v together_o by_o fortune_n and_o that_o child_n be_v beget_v and_o bear_v of_o they_o even_o as_o of_o swine_n when_o they_o have_v they_o that_o bring_v they_o up_o in_o wealth_n and_o pleasure_n some_o time_n it_o come_v to_o pass_v also_o that_o the_o child_n of_o wise_a excellent_a and_o notable_a man_n do_v miserable_o degenerate_a as_o many_o example_n do_v witness_n both_o in_o holy_a and_o profane_a history_n and_o as_o common_o we_o see_v also_o at_o this_o day_n wherefore_o the_o holy_a ghost_n call_v we_o back_o to_o the_o
