in_o judgement_n against_o they_o for_o they_o praise_v god_n continual_o after_o their_o manner_n or_o as_o well_o as_o they_o can_v the_o sun_n moon_n and_o star_n fire_n and_o hail_n snow_n and_o

both_o young_a man_n and_o maiden_n old_a man_n and_o child_n more_o command_v to_o praise_v the_o lord_n and_o be_v not_o saint_n command_v and_o bind_v to_o praise_v the_o lord_n more_o than_o all_o

we_o must_v deny_v our_o own_o praise_n perfect_o or_o else_o all_o our_o praise_n of_o god_n be_v imperfect_a we_o must_v double_o deny_v twice_o deny_v all_o our_o own_o praise_n else_o we_o do_v

the_o foundation_n of_o his_o own_o and_o his_o people_n praise_n meet_v and_o centre_n in_o we_o first_o say_v david_n the_o work_n of_o the_o lord_n be_v great_a and_o sure_o we_o be_v not_o call_v this_o day_n to_o praise_n the_o lord_n for_o some_o small_a or_o little_a work_n indeed_o all_o the_o work_n of_o the_o lord_n be_v great_a great_a as_o do_v by_o he_o for_o he_o leave_v the_o

22._o for_o the_o lord_n be_v our_o judge_n the_o lord_n be_v our_o law_n giver_n the_o lord_n be_v our_o king_n he_o will_v save_v we_o this_o salvation_n of_o zion_n be_v the_o destruction_n of_o

not_o spread_v the_o sail_n then_o be_v the_o prey_n of_o a_o great_a spoil_n divide_v the_o lame_a take_v the_o prey_n and_o when_o he_o say_v the_o lame_a take_v the_o prey_n he_o do_v not_o mean_a that_o it_o shall_v be_v take_v by_o a_o company_n of_o cripple_n but_o by_o some_o small_a power_n and_o may_v we_o not_o say_v that_o now_o the_o prey_n of_o a_o great_a spoil_n be_v divide_v yea_o may_v we_o not_o say_v the_o lame_a have_v take_v the_o prey_n be_v it_o not_o take_v by_o so_o small_a a_o part_n of_o the_o force_n send_v upon_o that_o design_n as_o may_v not_o improper_o be_v call_v a_o lame_a or_o weak_a limb_n in_o comparison_n of_o the_o whole_a body_n and_o do_v not_o the_o enemy_n look_v upon_o our_o six_o frigate_n which_o engage_v they_o as_o a_o company_n of_o

whether_o civil_a or_o moral_a good_a or_o evil_n arise_v much_o if_o not_o chief_o from_o circumstantial_o from_o the_o way_n and_o manner_n from_o the_o time_n and_o season_n in_o which_o they_o

may_v have_v or_o how_o far_o it_o may_v reach_v this_o may_v prove_v a_o long_a hand_a mercy_n the_o apostle_n james_n speak_v admire_o behold_v how_o great_a a_o matter_n a_o little_a fire_n
