import_v as_o many_o both_o ancient_a and_o modern_a writer_n do_v take_v it_o that_o the_o ark_n of_o the_o covenant_n be_v now_o fetch_v into_o the_o host_n of_o israel_n which_o 4_o use_v to_o be_v do_v in_o time_n of_o danger_n and_o that_o for_o four_o reason_n 1._o to_o encourage_v the_o soldier_n because_o the_o ark_n wherein_o be_v the_o 4_o pot_n of_o manna_n the_o rod_n of_o aaron_n and_o the_o table_n of_o the_o covenant_n be_v a_o visible_a token_n of_o god_n presence_n second_o to_o testify_v that_o they_o trust_v not_o in_o their_o sword_n but_o in_o the_o lord_n who_o strength_n be_v figure_v and_o represent_v in_o the_o ark_n which_o therefore_o be_v call_v 8_o the_o ark_n of_o his_o strength_n three_o to_o terrify_v their_o enemy_n and_o therefore_o when_o the_o ark_n remove_v these_o word_n be_v use_v let_v god_n 35_o arise_v and_o let_v his_o enemy_n be_v scatter_v let_v they_o also_o that_o hate_v he_o fly_v before_o he_o four_o that_o they_o may_v ask_v counsel_n of_o the_o lord_n in_o case_n of_o necessity_n thus_o the_o jew_n in_o their_o danger_n and_o extremity_n have_v recourse_n to_o the_o ark_n now_o we_o christian_n have_v not_o as_o they_o have_v the_o golden_a cherubin_n the_o mercy_n seat_n and_o the_o ark_n of_o the_o covenant_n overlay_v with_o gold_n but_o our_o ark_n be_v christ_n and_o his_o true_a religion_n and_o happy_a shall_v we_o be_v both_o in_o peace_n and_o in_o war_n if_o this_o ark_n be_v still_o among_o we_o our_o land_n indeed_o be_v a_o goodly_a land_n our_o garden_n like_o eden_n our_o river_n like_o jordan_n yea_o our_o land_n be_v bless_v for_o the_o sweet_a increase_n of_o the_o sun_n and_o for_o the_o sweet_a increase_n of_o the_o moon_n and_o for_o the_o treasure_n hide_v in_o the_o sand_n yea_o the_o whole_a island_n be_v wall_v about_o with_o the_o ocean_n yet_o our_o chief_a comfort_n consist_v in_o this_o that_o this_o true_a ark_n of_o god_n be_v among_o we_o and_o that_o our_o defence_n be_v the_o lord_n jehavah_n lord_n let_v this_o ark_n still_o abide_v in_o our_o tent_n that_o our_o enemy_n may_v be_v scatter_v and_o that_o we_o may_v always_o rejoice_v in_o thou_o the_o god_n of_o our_o salvation_n this_o point_n thus_o touch_v and_o explain_v by_o the_o way_n let_v we_o now_o ponder_v the_o word_n of_o urias_n for_o they_o be_v very_o memorable_a and_o deserve_v to_o be_v write_v in_o letter_n of_o gold_n they_o contain_v two_o reason_n the_o former_a be_v draw_v from_o the_o state_n of_o the_o camp_n and_o it_o be_v threefold_a first_o the_o ark_n of_o god_n be_v in_o peril_n and_o shall_v i_o go_v follow_v my_o private_a pleasure_n here_o be_v a_o notable_a touch_n of_o religion_n and_o devotion_n second_o judah_n and_o israel_n be_v in_o their_o tent_n and_o shall_v i_o be_v such_o a_o tenderling_n as_o to_o hide_v my_o head_n in_o a_o house_n of_o timber_n &_o stone_n here_o be_v a_o compassionate_a care_n of_o the_o camp_n though_o his_o body_n be_v absent_a his_o heart_n be_v with_o they_o three_o my_o lord_n joab_n and_o his_o servant_n be_v encamp_v in_o the_o open_a field_n sub_fw-la dio_fw-mi sub_fw-la jove_n frigido_fw-la and_o shall_v i_o be_v chamber_v up_o like_o a_o carpet_n knight_n or_o a_o white-livered_a soldier_n here_o be_v a_o dutiful_a respect_n and_o conformity_n to_o his_o governor_n the_o second_o reason_n be_v draw_v from_o the_o consideration_n of_o his_o own_o estate_n and_o condition_n shall_v i_o go_v home_o i_o that_o be_o a_o profess_a soldier_n i_o that_o be_o a_o captain_n and_o commander_n of_o other_o nay_o rather_o my_o house_n shall_v be_v the_o vault_n of_o heaven_n the_o ground_n shall_v be_v my_o bed_n a_o stone_n shall_v be_v my_o pillow_n the_o sable_a curtain_n of_o darkness_n shall_v be_v draw_v about_o i_o and_o my_o canopy_n shall_v be_v the_o azure_a canopy_n of_o heaven_n whether_o envelop_v with_o cloud_n or_o bespangle_v with_o star_n but_o why_o shall_v i_o go_v home_o unto_o my_o house_n to_o eat_v and_o to_o drink_v alas_o this_o be_v not_o a_o time_n for_o feast_v but_o rather_o for_o fast_v and_o prayer_n or_o shall_v i_o go_v solace_v myself_o with_o my_o wife_n no_o no_o at_o such_o a_o time_n as_o this_o let_v even_o lawful_a pleasure_n be_v abandon_v let_v the_o bridegroom_n go_v out_o of_o his_o chamber_n and_o the_o bride_n out_o of_o her_o bride-chamber_n a_o noble_a resolution_n for_o a_o soldier_n and_o worthy_a one_o of_o the_o worthy_n of_o david_n be_v this_o a_o hittite_n or_o rather_o a_o true_a israelite_n in_o who_o be_v no_o guile_n o_o happy_a be_v a_o king_n which_o have_v a_o army_n consist_v of_o such_o soldier_n this_o may_v have_v touch_v david_n to_o the_o quick_a to_o see_v a_o soldier_n have_v more_o care_n of_o the_o common_a good_a than_o himself_o but_o here_o we_o may_v note_v how_o adultery_n take_v away_o the_o heart_n of_o a_o man_n it_o make_v he_o so_o dull_a that_o he_o do_v not_o rejoice_v at_o the_o zeal_n of_o urias_n but_o be_v sorry_a for_o it_o because_o it_o cross_v his_o own_o wicked_a design_n yet_o urias_n still_o continue_v constant_a so_o that_o neither_o the_o weariness_n of_o his_o journey_n nor_o the_o love_n of_o his_o young_a and_o beautiful_a wife_n nor_o the_o king_n courteous_a exhortation_n nor_o his_o cunning_a invitation_n nor_o his_o friendly_a expostulation_n can_v prevail_v with_o he_o or_o persuade_v he_o to_o go_v home_o unto_o his_o wife_n wherefore_o david_n be_v hitherto_o disappoint_v of_o his_o purpose_n yet_o behold_v another_o train_n to_o bring_v he_o to_o his_o lure_n though_o a_o very_a bad_a and_o a_o base_a one_o for_o the_o next_o day_n he_o invite_v he_o to_o eat_v and_o drink_v before_o he_o and_o that_o of_o set_a purpose_n to_o make_v he_o drink_v o_o merciful_a god_n what_o will_v not_o sinful_a man_n do_v to_o avoid_v the_o shame_n of_o the_o world_n there_o be_v no_o question_n but_o david_n both_o hate_a drunkenness_n in_o his_o heart_n and_o punish_v it_o in_o other_o and_o yet_o to_o hide_v his_o own_o shame_n he_o be_v not_o ashamed_a to_o make_v a_o man_n drink_v there_o be_v a_o good_a law_n enact_v by_o king_n 8_o ahasuerus_n that_o though_o they_o may_v drink_v the_o royal_a wine_n in_o abundance_n yet_o no_o man_n may_v urge_v or_o compel_v but_o david_n as_o it_o seem_v do_v urge_v and_o compel_v urias_n for_o the_o 13_o text_n say_v that_o he_o make_v he_o drink_v and_o be_v there_o not_o many_o at_o this_o day_n also_o which_o will_v urge_v and_o compel_v a_o man_n to_o drink_v till_o he_o be_v drink_v some_o because_o they_o use_v to_o be_v drink_v themselves_o wish_v all_o other_o man_n to_o be_v brand_v with_o the_o like_a infamy_n other_o which_o be_v strong_a to_o bear_v drink_v themselves_o be_v so_o ungracious_a that_o they_o rejoice_v to_o discover_v the_o weakness_n of_o another_o and_o to_o triumph_v in_o his_o fall_n other_o do_v it_o of_o policy_n when_o they_o can_v bring_v a_o man_n to_o their_o own_o bent_n while_o he_o be_v sober_a they_o hope_v to_o prevail_v with_o he_o when_o he_o be_v drink_v and_o so_o do_v david_n now_o who_o i_o beseech_v you_o will_v ever_o have_v suspect_v such_o a_o thing_n by_o david_n here_o i_o note_v that_o a_o man_n be_v soon_o inveigle_v when_o he_o suspect_v least_o harm_n and_o never_o soon_o than_o under_o the_o colour_n of_o friendship_n wherefore_o take_v heed_n of_o thy_o foe_n and_o as_o the_o world_n go_v now_o adays_o thou_o have_v need_v to_o take_v heed_n of_o thy_o friend_n also_o for_o howsoever_o man_n pretend_v kindness_n yet_o if_o they_o urge_v thou_o to_o drink_v look_v to_o thyself_o they_o be_v not_o friend_n but_o foe_n not_o kind_a but_o cruel_a and_o here_o o_o that_o my_o eye_n be_v a_o fountain_n of_o tear_n that_o i_o may_v lament_v the_o sin_n of_o this_o land_n and_o namely_o that_o beastly_a sin_n of_o drunkenness_n which_o threaten_v judgement_n from_o heaven_n against_o we_o it_o be_v so_o spread_v from_o one_o part_n of_o the_o land_n unto_o another_o and_o like_o a_o deluge_n have_v overflow_v all_o estate_n and_o degree_n o_o what_o be_v it_o like_v or_o whereto_o shall_v i_o compare_v it_o it_o be_v like_a to_o a_o certain_a animalculum_fw-la which_o some_o reckon_v among_o gen._n serpent_n or_o creep_a creature_n other_o resemble_v to_o a_o pol._n spider_n
