her_o faith_n but_o this_o be_v a_o marvellous_a say_n of_o christ_n if_o we_o will_v weigh_v the_o matter_n aryghte_a he_o confessethe_v that_o power_n procee_v from_o he_o ▪_o and_o when_o the_o

from_o he_o when_o notwithstanding_o this_o health_n procee_v not_o from_o the_o woman_n but_o from_o christ_n but_o christ_n doothe_v this_o to_o this_o end_n that_o he_o may_v show_v unto_o we_o how_o great_o this_o thing_n please_v he_o when_o the_o faith_n be_v such_o as_o most_o certain_o hope_v and_o look_v for_o health_n and_o help_n of_o he_o alone_o as_o though_o he_o shall_v say_v only_o provide_v this_o that_o you_o may_v be_v well_o endue_v with_o faith_n in_o what_o soever_o danger_n you_o be_v for_o my_o mind_n be_v much_o more_o ready_a to_o help_v than_o your_o desire_n be_v to_o crave_v it_o i_o do_v much_o more_o redy_o delyver_v you_o from_o death_n than_o you_o desire_v life_n this_o to_o be_v true_a christ_n declare_v it_o plain_o in_o this_o place_n sing_v that_o he_o so_o both_o liberal_o and_o glad_o suffer_v virtue_n and_o power_n to_o proceed_v from_o he_o in_o healp_a this_o woman_n therefore_o we_o ought_v to_o learn_v by_o this_o example_n that_o in_o all_o peryl_n and_o danger_n we_o shall_v set_v our_o faith_n only_o upon_o christ_n adversity_n and_o look_v for_o all_o help_v at_o his_o hand_n only_o but_o what_o do_v we_o we_o hear_v this_o at_o sermon_n in_o the_o temple_n we_o be_v put_v in_o remembrance_n thereof_o at_o home_n neither_o do_v we_o want_v his_o miracle_n at_o this_o day_n yet_o can_v not_o our_o faith_n be_v excite_v

come_v she_o with_o so_o stout_a and_o strong_a faith_n unto_o christ_n that_o if_o christ_n have_v be_v in_o the_o high_a part_n of_o heaven_n faith_n this_o faith_n will_v have_v brace_v through_o all_o thing_n yea_o and_o have_v bring_v christ_n down_o into_o the_o earth_n for_o to_o have_v holpen_v she_o for_o as_o we_o have_v oftentimes_o say_v god_n can_v not_o there_o deny_v help_n where_o he_o be_v true_o and_o with_o a_o right_a faith_n seek_v and_o call_v upon_o wherefore_o we_o be_v alas_o for_o sorrow_n to_o much_o wretch_n which_o have_v the_o word_n of_o god_n so_o plain_o yet_o suffer_v not_o our_o faith_n thereby_o to_o be_v excite_v stir_v up_o and_o confirm_v but_o all_o the_o fault_n of_o this_o matter_n be_v in_o the_o devil_n and_o in_o our_o corrupt_a and_o wicked_a

that_o put_v their_o trust_n in_o he_o he_o will_v procure_v they_o peace_n and_o salvation_n for_o ever_o and_o ever_o after_o this_o lesson_n &_o doctrine_n which_o be_v call_v the_o doctrine_n of_o

misery_n and_o calamity_n no_o less_o then_o with_o our_o own_o as_o when_o i_o have_v a_o neighbour_n that_o be_v needy_a or_o sycke_n i_o ought_v not_o only_o to_o be_v ready_a to_o help_v faith_n but_o i_o must_v be_v sorry_a for_o his_o misery_n and_o that_o at_o my_o very_a heart_n as_o though_o it_o be_v min_fw-mi own_o evil_a as_o this_o be_v put_v forth_o to_o we_o in_o christ._n he_o be_v in_o this_o place_n as_o a_o foreiner_n and_o stranger_n but_o when_o he_o see_v the_o misery_n of_o this_o widow_n he_o be_v asmuch_o greve_v as_o though_o it_o be_v his_o own_o son_n he_o geve_v comfort_n and_o help_n this_o be_v the_o example_n of_o charity_n which_o ought_v to_o follow_v after_o faith_n &_o it_o do_v always_o follow_v faith_n if_o it_o be_v true_a faith_n so_o that_o we_o ought_v not_o to_o behave_v ourselves_o after_o the_o example_n of_o certain_a merciless_a people_n which_o have_v stony_a and_o iron_n heart_n &_o laugh_v at_o their_o neighbour_n misery_n and_o be_v greve_v at_o their_o prosperity_n the_o affection_n of_o christian_a man_n ought_v to_o be_v otherwise_o which_o ought_v to_o be_v greve_v at_o other_o man_n misfortune_n &_o glad_a at_o their_o

person_n to_o be_v glad_a of_o other_o man_n hurt_n &_o to_o be_v greve_v at_o every_o man_n wealth_n save_v their_o own_o pity_n but_o there_o be_v two_o sort_n of_o pity_n a_o spiritual_a &_o a_o

help_n &_o can_v not_o help_v then selue_o it_o be_v a_o spiritual_a evil_a when_o the_o soul_n be_v in_o peril_n sin_n as_o when_o i_o see_v a_o young_a man_n void_a of_o all_o holiness_n &_o care_v nothing_o for_o religion_n holy_a doctrine_n but_o be_v ignorant_a of_o the_o principle_n of_o religion_n &_o live_v wtout_fw-fr any_o discipline_n or_o order_n fierce_a stubborn_a obstinate_a here_o it_o be_v the_o office_n of_o pity_n not_o to_o speak_v fair_a &_o gentle_a word_n unto_o he_o but_o to_o chide_v he_o &_o sharp_o rebuke_v he_o yea_o &_o rather_o to_o beat_v he_o or_o strike_v he_o for_o there_o be_v great_a peril_n when_o the_o soul_n be_v disease_v with_o such_o evil_n than_o when_o the_o body_n be_v sick_a of_o any_o disease_n wherefore_o we_o must_v let_v nothing_o pass_v as_o touch_v this_o pity_n that_o these_o evilles_n may_v with_o word_n stripe_n &_o wand_n &_o such_o other_o remedy_n be_v restrain_v but_o thou_o say_v that_o this_o be_v a_o cruel_a pity_n to_o vex_v the_o body_n with_o stripe_n yea_o but_o necessity_n cause_v this_o to_o be_v the_o best_a pity_n that_o be_v in_o this_o case_n for_o the_o physician_n must_v needs_o show_v cruelty_n upon_o some_o part_n of_o the_o body_n that_o the_o hole_n body_n may_v be_v save_v and_o so_o be_v it_o also_o as_o concern_v this_o pity_n for_o such_o chastisement_n be_v do_v to_o see_v to_o thou_o that_o thou_o may_v be_v deliver_v from_o the_o tyranny_n of_o the_o devil_n &_o from_o his_o kingdom_n similitude_n he_z that_o be_v almost_o drown_v in_o a_o flood_n take_v it_o for_o no_o wrong_n if_o he_o be_v pluck_v out_o by_o the_o hear_v although_o it_o be_v do_v to_o his_o great_a grief_n and_o pain_n wherefore_o if_o thou_o do_v not_o refuse_v in_o the_o bodily_a evile_v to_o suffer_v a_o little_a pain_n for_o the_o avoid_n of_o great_a peril_n why_o shouldeste_v thou_o in_o a_o more_o dangerous_a peril_n of_o soul_n and_o everla_a life_n take_v grevous_o such_o chastisement_n as_o be_v requisite_a and_o necessary_a so_o be_v it_o true_o the_o work_n of_o pity_n when_o stubborn_a child_n and_o obstinate_a servant_n be_v sharp_o by_o stripe_n put_v in_o remembrance_n of_o their_o

that_o will_v be_v pitiful_a and_o will_v dissemble_v or_o wink_v at_o sin_v he_o shall_v commit_v two_o kind_n of_o cruelty_n toward_o his_o neighbour_n &_o shall_v fall_v into_o god_n high_a

to_o think_v sure_o that_o this_o be_v our_o duty_n to_o help_v yea_o with_o the_o lssoe_n of_o our_o good_n when_o our_o neighbour_n be_v in_o bodily_a necessity_n &_o so_o true_o to_o show_v the_o

himself_o which_o promise_v also_o to_o requite_v it_o by_o a_o reward_n or_o if_o the_o contagion_n or_o disease_n be_v spiritual_a that_o be_v to_o say_v sin_v as_o if_o our_o child_n and_o family_n be_v stubborn_a negligent_a wanton_a in_o do_v and_o say_v here_o must_v be_v show_v pity_n that_o be_v cruel_a in_o sight_n and_o yet_o for_o all_o that_o do_v all_o thing_n for_o the_o best_a but_o that_o that_o be_v pass_v tame_a &_o amendment_n geve_v it_o up_o as_o a_o thing_n past_o cure_n into_o the_o hand_n of_o the_o minister_n and_o officer_n for_o the_o matter_n can_v not_o escape_v unpunysh_v and_o it_o be_v to_o be_v count_v a_o part_n of_o pity_n to_o punyshe_v in_o such_o case_n with_o extremity_n of_o death_n for_o they_o that_o be_v past_a grace_n can_v be_v restrain_v by_o no_o other_o mean_n they_o will_v be_v the_o destruction_n as_o well_o of_o other_o as_o theyr selue_o if_o this_o office_n of_o pity_n be_v not_o exercise_v upon_o they_o by_o the_o sword_n mercy_n wherefore_o punyshemente_n be_v very_a work_n of_o pity_n seem_v they_o never_o so_o cruel_a and_o bitter_a to_o a_o man_n sight_n for_o if_o it_o be_v not_o for_o this_o punyshment_n and_o sharp_a

with_o discretion_n and_o let_v he_o not_o help_v in_o bodily_a evyls_n only_a but_o much_o rather_o in_o spiritual_a evyls_n and_o these_o be_v the_o two_o doctrine_n out_o of_o this_o gospel_n

to_o sight_n and_o let_v we_o think_v that_o the_o almighty_a help_v of_o all_o our_o salvation_n be_v set_v in_o christ._n wherefore_o we_o can_v not_o despair_v of_o he_o without_o our_o hurt_n the_o help_n of_o man_n and_o of_o we_o be_v but_o vain_a for_o they_o can_v not_o repress_v death_n death_n be_v valiant_a against_o they_o but_o we_o must_v have_v
doctrine_n above_o the_o law_n for_o since_o we_o can_v not_o perfect_o fulfil_v the_o law_n the_o law_n cause_v we_o to_o have_v a_o evil_a conscience_n &_o to_o fear_v god_n wroth_a for_o our_o
