and_o that_o with_o a_o sentence_n of_o approbation_n and_o commendation_n upon_o every_o particular_a thing_n which_o he_o have_v make_v and_o behold_v say_v the_o text_n it_o be_v very_o good_a god_n survey_n of_o all_o his_o creature_n and_o his_o judgement_n of_o they_o upon_o his_o survey_n and_o review_v of_o they_o these_o two_o divide_v the_o text._n from_o the_o word_n we_o shall_v deduce_v these_o two_o observation_n 1._o that_o god_n who_o be_v 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d he_o do_v look_v upon_o again_o &_o again_o and_o consider_v his_o work_n 2._o that_o it_o be_v a_o true_a and_o righteous_a sentence_n or_o judgement_n namely_o this_o which_o he_o pass_v upon_o his_o creature_n at_o first_o as_o they_o then_o be_v as_o they_o come_v out_o of_o his_o hand_n behold_v they_o be_v very_o good_a the_o former_a i_o shall_v very_o brief_o dispatch_v the_o latter_a i_o shall_v insist_v upon_o 1._o of_o the_o first_o it_o can_v be_v that_o ever_o any_o thing_n shall_v be_v hide_v from_o god_n all-seeing_a eye_n which_o be_v a_o thousand_o time_n bright_a than_o the_o sun_n which_o if_o it_o look_v on_o the_o sun_n the_o eye_n of_o the_o world_n that_o

nothing_o which_o be_v register_v in_o moses_n natural_a history_n of_o the_o creation_n can_v possible_o lie_v undiscovered_a unto_o he_o no_o not_o the_o angel_n of_o heaven_n above_o which_o because_o not_o to_o be_v see_v with_o corporal_a eye_n much_o less_o mineral_n hide_v in_o the_o bowel_n of_o the_o earth_n beneath_o which_o because_o not_o actual_o see_v without_o much_o dig_v and_o delve_v or_o because_o not_o so_o soon_o perfect_v by_o the_o heat_n of_o the_o sun_n be_v therefore_o omit_v altogether_o in_o the_o precede_a narration_n i_o say_v there_o be_v never_o any_o thing_n either_o in_o heaven_n above_o in_o the_o earth_n beneath_o or_o in_o the_o water_n either_o above_o or_o under_o the_o earth_n which_o be_v not_o always_o visible_a and_o actual_o see_v and_o behold_v by_o he_o and_o yet_o if_o you_o look_v over_o this_o chapter_n you_o will_v find_v that_o it_o be_v say_v that_o god_n have_v see_v his_o work_n four_o time_n before_o now_o he_o see_v the_o work_n of_o every_o day_n in_o the_o end_n thereof_o and_o pronounce_v it_o good_a except_o the_o second_o day_n which_o some_o think_v be_v because_o the_o angel_n be_v create_v that_o day_n and_o that_o day_n fall_v multitude_n of_o they_o other_o because_o that_o day_n be_v a_o work_n of_o division_n for_o then_o god_n make_v the_o firmament_n and_o divide_v the_o water_n which_o be_v under_o the_o firmament_n from_o the_o water_n which_o be_v above_o the_o firmament_n verse_n 7._o or_o last_o and_o most_o probable_o because_o the_o work_n which_o be_v begin_v that_o day_n be_v not_o so_o full_o perfect_v until_o the_o three_o day_n when_o god_n gather_v the_o water_n under_o the_o heaven_n into_o one_o place_n and_o call_v it_o sea_n when_o it_o be_v say_v that_o god_n see_v that_o it_o be_v good_a verse_n 10._o i_o say_v god_n have_v see_v his_o work_n four_o time_n before_o this_o six_o day_n and_o never_o look_v on_o any_o thing_n that_o he_o have_v make_v but_o he_o see_v it_o be_v good_a and_o yet_o this_o satisfy_v not_o but_o he_o see_v and_o survey_v they_o again_o a_o five_o time_n namely_o now_o on_o the_o six_o day_n god_n see_v every_o thing_n that_o he_o have_v make_v if_o any_o wonder_n at_o this_o and_o say_v in_o their_o heart_n what_o do_v this_o mean_a if_o it_o be_v so_o why_o be_v it_o thus_o i_o answer_v that_o it_o be_v not_o do_v for_o that_o it_o be_v possible_a for_o god_n to_o have_v oversee_v himself_o in_o any_o of_o his_o work_n and_o to_o have_v omit_v either_o any_o part_n or_o parcel_n of_o work_n which_o he_o have_v design_v to_o do_v or_o any_o punctilio_fw-la of_o workmanship_n requisite_a it_o be_v not_o because_o that_o any_o thing_n either_o actual_o do_v or_o possible_o can_v miscarry_v in_o his_o hand_n or_o be_v mar_v by_o he_o in_o the_o make_n of_o it_o it_o be_v not_o because_o there_o be_v any_o want_n of_o harmony_n or_o due_a proportion_n of_o the_o part_v one_o to_o another_o or_o because_o all_o together_o they_o can_v possible_o render_v the_o universe_n ugly_a or_o monstrous_a it_o be_v not_o for_o any_o one_o nor_o for_o all_o these_o cause_n put_v together_o that_o god_n be_v say_v
