of_o pure_a zeal_n be_v zeal_n to_o be_v humble_v in_o ourselves_o for_o those_o sin_n which_o we_o espy_v and_o censure_v in_o other_o and_o so_o to_o nourish_v a_o holy_a compassion_n towards_o they_o here_o be_v a_o excellent_a and_o infallible_a difference_n between_o godly_a zeal_n and_o fleshly_a heat_n viz_o when_o our_o anger_n for_o our_o brother_n fall_v do_v not_o feed_v itself_o upon_o the_o party_n because_o of_o our_o wrath_n but_o upon_o his_o sin_n because_o of_o our_o zeal_n we_o still_o retain_v a_o tender_a affection_n towards_o the_o person_n of_o the_o offender_n when_o our_o saviour_n christ_n go_v about_o to_o heal_v the_o man_n that_o have_v the_o wither_a hand_n the_o pharisee_n that_o stand_v by_o murmur_v because_o he_o will_v heal_v on_o the_o sabbath_n

notable_a example_n 5._o how_o anger_n and_o sorrow_n meet_v together_o anger_n that_o man_n shall_v have_v so_o little_a knowledge_n of_o god_n and_o love_n of_o their_o brother_n sorrow_n that_o through_o ignorance_n they_o be_v so_o foulie_o oversee_v 37._o so_o likewise_o in_o zeal_n of_o his_o father_n 42._o christ_n look_v on_o jerusalem_n with_o a_o hatred_n to_o their_o sin_n and_o yet_o with_o pity_n of_o their_o misery_n which_o be_v at_o hand_n which_o appear_v in_o that_o he_o weep_v over_o it_o mark_v this_o in_o all_o the_o prophet_n from_o time_n to_o time_n as_o in_o isaiah_n jeremie_n ezekiel_n daniel_n &c_n &c_n whether_o they_o do_v not_o utter_v their_o message_n in_o heaviness_n of_o spirit_n and_o when_o they_o most_o threaten_v the_o people_n for_o their_o sin_n observe_v if_o they_o be_v not_o most_o grieve_a and_o fear_v lest_o they_o shall_v be_v execute_v upon_o they_o this_o be_v a_o bless_a temperature_n thus_o to_o mingle_v grief_n with_o zeal_n but_o that_o be_v a_o overreach_v zeal_n that_o feed_v more_o on_o the_o person_n then_o on_o the_o sin_n wherefore_o we_o must_v crave_v this_o special_a grace_n at_o the_o hand_n of_o god_n by_o prayer_n to_o be_v govern_v by_o a_o right_a zeal_n and_o that_o we_o may_v true_o discern_v the_o difference_n between_o fret_a anger_n and_o pine_a zeal_n which_o if_o all_o sort_n of_o man_n will_v labour_v for_o receive_v this_o rule_n in_o judgement_n and_o observe_v it_o in_o practice_n it_o will_v breed_v a_o great_a deal_n more_o conscience_n in_o minister_n magistrate_n and_o master_n when_o they_o be_v to_o admonish_v their_o inferior_n alas_o we_o see_v many_o who_o can_v mangle_v and_o martyr_v a_o man_n for_o some_o offence_n who_o never_o learn_v for_o conscience_n sake_n to_o mourn_v for_o those_o in_o firmity_n which_o so_o bitter_o they_o inveigh_v against_o in_o other_o the_o apostle_n paul_n be_v of_o another_o temper_n 4._o i_o fear_v say_v he_o to_o the_o

as_o he_o tell_v they_o in_o another_o place_n yet_o can_v he_o not_o but_o lament_v and_o be_v humble_v for_o their_o offence_n who_o be_v a_o part_n of_o his_o apostolic_a charge_n so_o samuel_n in_o the_o zeal_n of_o god_n glory_n spare_v not_o flat_o to_o tell_v saul_n of_o his_o sin_n notwithstanding_o his_o great_a authority_n and_o yet_o in_o love_n and_o compassion_n to_o his_o person_n 35._o he_o be_v always_o bend_v to_o lament_v saul_n case_n and_o earnest_o to_o pray_v for_o he_o till_o the_o lord_n forbid_v he_o to_o do_v so_o any_o long_o 1._o sam._n 16._o 1._o if_o we_o can_v keep_v this_o golden_a mixture_n we_o shall_v stop_v the_o mouth_n of_o the_o adversary_n who_o accuse_v we_o to_o be_v full_a of_o rancour_n and_o malice_n if_o we_o be_v angry_a as_o enemy_n to_o their_o sin_n but_o grieve_v in_o that_o for_o sin_n they_o be_v become_v enemy_n to_o god_n further_o we_o must_v know_v that_o true_a zeal_n make_v we_o as_o willing_a to_o be_v admonish_v admonition_n as_o careful_a to_o admonish_v and_o that_o not_o only_o of_o our_o superior_n which_o be_v a_o easy_a thing_n because_o there_o we_o must_v of_o necessity_n yield_v but_o also_o of_o our_o inferior_n who_o we_o may_v seem_v to_o contemn_v all_o man_n will_v grant_v that_o a_o child_n ought_v willing_o to_o be_v admonish_v of_o his_o father_n or_o a_o servant_n of_o his_o master_n but_o few_o will_n in_o practice_n give_v this_o that_o a_o father_n shall_v listen_v to_o the_o advertisement_n of_o his_o son_n or_o that_o a_o master_n shall_v receive_v a_o admonition_n of_o his_o servant_n howbeit_o job_n say_v he_o dare_v not_o contemn_v the_o judgement_n of_o his_o servant_n or_o of_o his_o maid_n when_o they_o do_v contend_v with_o he_o because_o in_o a_o duty_n of_o piety_n he_o look_v to_o they_o 13._o not_o as_o servant_n but_o as_o brethren_n he_o look_v not_o to_o the_o speaker_n only_o which_o in_o respect_n of_o his_o call_n be_v his_o inferior_a but_o

to_o correct_v the_o preposterous_a boldness_n of_o some_o we_o add_v thus_o much_o that_o inferior_n must_v rather_o advise_v than_o admonish_v advertise_v rather_o than_o reprehend_v their_o superior_n that_o so_o still_o they_o may_v offer_v their_o pure_a zeal_n of_o the_o glory_n of_o god_n in_o unfeigned_a humility_n leave_v through_o their_o corrupt_a zeal_n they_o do_v not_o only_o
