any_o trouble_n or_o calamity_n be_v they_o never_o so_o grievous_a but_o it_o be_v not_o enough_o to_o learn_v these_o thing_n by_o hear_v and_o by_o read_v of_o book_n only_o but_o experience_n

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

like_o arrow_n or_o dart_n which_o strike_v and_o pierce_v because_o they_o be_v send_v of_o god_n for_o old_a man_n be_v not_o meet_v for_o war_n according_a to_o that_o say_n youth_n must_n travel_n middle_a age_n must_v give_v counsel_n and_o old_a man_n must_v pray_v that_o be_v young_a man_n must_v labour_v and_o take_v pain_n for_o the_o defence_n &_o maintenance_n of_o the_o common_a weal_n they_o that_o be_v more_o ripe_a in_o year_n and_o wisdom_n must_v help_v the_o common_a weal_n with_o grave_a counsel_n and_o good_a advice_n and_o they_o which_o be_v old_a and_o impotent_a must_v pray_v for_o the_o prosperous_a state_n and_o good_a success_n thereof_o but_o here_o note_v what_o a_o excellent_a title_n he_o give_v to_o those_o that_o do_v defend_v the_o common_a weal_n when_o

give_v from_o above_o and_o that_o industry_n and_o wise_a policy_n be_v of_o more_o force_n than_o armour_n &_o weapon_n so_o have_v it_o often_o time_n come_v to_o pass_v that_o great_a army_n

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 constrain_v to_o fight_v pray_v for_o the_o help_n &_o assistance_n of_o god_n against_o his_o enemy_n and_o so_o obtain_v the_o victory_n for_o he_o acknowledge_v that_o strength_n and_o victory_n 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 mean_n forsooth_o he_o have_v armour_n and_o weapon_n with_o all_o furniture_n of_o war_n he_o have_v mighty_a army_n both_o of_o horseman_n and_o footman_n but_o victory_n say_v he_o consist_v not_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 confidence_n and_o trust_n follow_v undoubted_a victory_n solomon_n therefore_o teach_v in_o this_o verse_n that_o victory_n be_v the_o gift_n of_o god_n and_o like_v as_o arrow_n which_o be_v shoot_v
