life_n amen_n your_o well_o willer_n in_o the_o lord._n w._n w._n a_o meditation_n upon_o the_o 26._o verse_n of_o the_o 11._o chap._n of_o the_o proverbe_n which_o may_v fit_o be_v call_v the_o poor-man_n plea_n pro._n 11._o verse_n 26._o he_o that_o withdraw_v corn_n the_o people_n will_v curse_v he_o but_o blessing_n shall_v be_v upon_o his_o head_n that_o sell_v corne._n like_a as_o for_o the_o incitation_n and_o stir_v up_o of_o good_a man_n unto_o virtue_n &_o godliness_n there_o be_v many_o privilege_n and_o promise_n set_v down_o in_o god_n word_n for_o their_o further_a encouragement_n and_o go_v forward_o therein_o so_o again_o on_o the_o other_o side_n for_o the_o terror_n and_o reproof_n of_o the_o wicked_a there_o be_v many_o sentence_n and_o say_n record_v to_o the_o end_n they_o may_v desist_v &_o leave_v off_o their_o wickedness_n and_o turn_v to_o the_o lord_n their_o god_n among_o which_o this_o be_v one_o that_o i_o have_v read_v unto_o you_o and_o yield_v most_o evident_a demonstration_n as_o in_o the_o several_a part_n thereof_o which_o be_v a_o curse_n and_o a_o blessing_n may_v ealsiy_a be_v gather_v for_o in_o the_o first_o part_n it_o be_v say_v he_o that_o withdraw_v corn_n the_o people_n will_v curse_v he_o from_o whence_o we_o may_v first_o learn_v that_o like_a as_o it_o be_v not_o unlawful_a to_o keep_v or_o lay_v up_o corn_n in_o time_n of_o plenty_n against_o a_o time_n of_o scarcity_n and_o dearth_n or_o want_v as_o joseph_n do_v in_o egypt_n so_o in_o time_n of_o scarfitie_n and_o dearth_n when_o we_o may_v convenient_o spare_v it_o &_o other_o do_v want_v it_o then_o to_o withhold_v the_o sell_n of_o or_o to_o keep_v it_o hutch_v up_o in_o our_o barn_n ricks_n or_o garner_n in_o hope_n to_o raise_v the_o price_n of_o it_o and_o to_o enrich_v ourselves_o by_o undoo_v or_o famish_v of_o other_o be_v a_o very_a inhuman_a and_o unchristian_a part_n and_o this_o be_v it_o that_o the_o holy_a ghost_n report_v in_o this_o place_n a_o common_a fault_n at_o this_o day_n for_o as_o we_o be_v teach_v by_o the_o law_n and_o the_o prophet_n to_o do_v as_o we_o will_v be_v do_v unto_o as_o we_o read_v in_o mat._n 7._o verse_n 12._o now_o say_v then_o that_o this_o be_v thy_o case_n or_o i_o as_o it_o be_v of_o many_o thousand_o that_o either_o of_o we_o do_v want_v food_n or_o raiment_n will_v we_o be_v content_a so_o to_o be_v deal_v withal_o as_o to_o give_v or_o pay_v double_a or_o treble_v the_o price_n for_o either_o as_o they_o be_v use_v to_o be_v sell_v at_o or_o as_o in_o any_o equity_n or_o conscience_n they_o be_v worth_a for_o so_o be_v many_o compel_v to_o do_v or_o else_o they_o can_v have_v they_o and_o all_o because_o that_o many_o through_o covetousness_n and_o cruelty_n and_o hardness_n of_o heart_n be_v give_v so_o many_o way_n to_o withdraw_v their_o corn_n from_o their_o brother_n as_o they_o do_v for_o not_o only_o do_v they_o hutch_n and_o hide_v it_o up_o in_o their_o barn_n rickes_n and_o garner_n not_o vouchsafe_v to_o store_v the_o market_n with_o it_o as_o they_o ought_v but_o also_o when_o they_o bring_v out_o any_o it_o be_v in_o so_o scant_a and_o pinch_a a_o manner_n and_o measure_n and_o at_o so_o high_a a_o price_n that_o the_o poor_a who_o most_o do_v want_v it_o be_v never_o the_o near_o be_v not_o able_a to_o compass_v it_o beside_o this_o when_o they_o can_v sell_v it_o at_o their_o own_o price_n that_o they_o will_v have_v for_o it_o they_o set_v it_o up_o or_o send_v it_o home_o again_o and_o then_o transport_v it_o by_o water_n beyond_o sea_n unto_o some_o other_o place_n of_o marte_fw-la where_o they_o may_v sell_v it_o at_o their_o pleasure_n and_o by_o all_o these_o way_n may_v it_o be_v say_v that_o they_o with_o draw_v their_o corn_n from_o the_o people_n as_o first_o when_o they_o bring_v it_o not_o to_o the_o market_n second_o when_o they_o sell_v it_o or_o hold_v it_o at_o too_o dear_a a_o price_n and_o three_o when_o they_o transport_v it_o to_o other_o place_n and_o therefore_o it_o be_v good_a that_o all_o such_o withdrawer_n of_o corn_n from_o the_o people_n or_o from_o the_o market_n do_v well_o consider_v of_o this_o that_o the_o holy_a ghost_n have_v here_o leave_v record_v for_o the_o open_n of_o their_o heart_n if_o they_o be_v not_o past_a cure_n as_o i_o fear_v i_o many_o of_o they_o be_v for_o he_o that_o do_v either_o miserable_o hutch_n it_o up_o in_o his_o barn_n as_o the_o rich_a man_n mention_v in_o the_o 12._o of_o s._n luke_n that_o build_v his_o barn_n big_a or_o hold_v the_o price_n so_o high_a that_o the_o poor_a can_v reach_v it_o as_o many_o do_v in_o the_o day_n of_o the_o prophet_n amos_n chap._n 8._o 5._o saying_n when_o will_v the_o new_a moon_n be_v go_v that_o we_o may_v sell_v corn_n and_o the_o sabbath_n that_o we_o may_v set_v forth_o wheat_n and_o make_v the_o ephah_n small_a and_o the_o shekel_n great_a and_o falsify_v the_o weight_n by_o deceit_n or_o unneighbourly_o transport_v it_o un_o to_o other_o nation_n or_o people_n as_o many_o among_o we_o do_v at_o this_o day_n the_o which_o how_o dreadful_a and_o damnable_a a_o thing_n it_o be_v we_o may_v learn_v by_o these_o manifold_a doctrine_n and_o divine_a duty_n which_o christ_n our_o saviour_n have_v leave_v record_v in_o his_o holyword_n teach_v we_o the_o contrary_a as_o namely_o &_o first_o of_o all_o to_o be_v merciful_a and_o therefore_o say_v be_v merciful_a as_o your_o heavenly_a father_n be_v merciful_a meaning_n thereby_o that_o we_o shall_v rather_o give_v corn_n and_o other_o food_n frank_o and_o free_o unto_o those_o that_o want_v it_o then_o by_o any_o cruel_a and_o covetous_a mean_n to_o withdraw_v it_o from_o they_o as_o our_o saniour_n plain_o
