be_v please_v must_v be_v the_o belove_a of_o god_n and_o so_o long_o as_o they_o be_v friend_n with_o they_o god_n be_v friend_n with_o they_o &_o no_o long_o as_o if_o they_o be_v always_o of_o as_o

have_v be_v at_o odds_n with_o the_o french_a king_n why_o present_o he_o have_v proclaim_v he_o the_o enemy_n of_o christ_n and_o all_o the_o christian_a world_n must_v up_o in_o arm_n against_o he_o as_o against_o god_n enemy_n and_o the_o frenchman_n for_o their_o king_n sake_n be_v all_o dog_n upon_o the_o sudden_a and_o clean_a remission_n of_o sin_n shall_v he_o have_v that_o shall_v kill_v

his_o subject_n all_o good_a christian_a man_n and_o great_a pity_n it_o be_v to_o shed_v their_o blood_n now_o as_o i_o be_v say_v to_o observe_v man_n that_o profess_v so_o much_o hatred_n to_o the_o pope_n as_o some_o pretend_v they_o do_v and_o yet_o be_v so_o like_o he_o in_o condition_n be_v matter_n of_o much_o vexation_n to_o a_o honest_a heart_n 4._o he_o have_v more_o need_n of_o patience_n than_o other_o because_o he_o see_v more_o evil_a in_o the_o world_n than_o other_o in_o regard_n of_o a_o more_o enlighten_v eye_n for_o what_o the_o eye_n see_v not_o the_o heart_n rue_v not_o say_v the_o proverb_n but_o what_o the_o eye_n do_v see_v the_o heart_n do_v rue_v if_o rueful_a i_o will_v name_v but_o one_o particular_a which_o for_o religion_n and_o god_n child_n sake_n do_v much_o afflict_v his_o heart_n to_o see_v it_o and_o that_o be_v a_o notable_a trick_n of_o the_o devil_n whereby_o he_o much_o prevail_v against_o god_n people_n and_o it_o be_v this_o he_o

on_o call_v the_o godly_a puritan_n and_o precisian_n therefore_o shall_v some_o of_o his_o brat_n call_v themselves_o so_o too_o and_o so_o for_o their_o advantage_n another_o way_n take_v upon_o

though_o the_o world_n call_v all_o god_n child_n puritan_n yet_o all_o that_o call_v themselves_o puritan_n be_v not_o god_n child_n for_o then_o many_o of_o your_o railer_n slanderer_n whisperer_n backbiter_n censurer_n of_o all_o other_o but_o themselves_o will_v be_v god_n child_n yea_o and_o many_o of_o the_o cheater_n too_o the_o cozen_a merchant_n and_o tradesman_n for_o a_o great_a many_o do_v wear_v christ_n livery_n only_o to_o deceive_v when_o all_o other_o shift_n fail_v some_o will_v turn_v alehouse-keeper_n but_o some_o more_o vile_a will_v turn_v professor_n as_o master_n bolton_n note_v that_o under_o a_o israelitish_n garment_n they_o may_v the_o better_o cheat_v the_o egyptian_n and_o if_o they_o be_v convince_v it_o be_v a_o sin_n which_o will_v be_v hard_a to_o do_v why_o yet_o they_o can_v with_o a_o bold_a forehead_n maintain_v that_o it_o be_v the_o sin_n of_o the_o trade_n then_o and_o not_o the_o sin_n of_o the_o man_n o_o how_o these_o stinker_n do_v vex_v the_o spirit_n of_o god_n faithful_a one_o and_o no_o one_o thing_n be_v more_o apt_a to_o break_v their_o patience_n than_o these_o very_a condition_n of_o these_o man_n for_o like_o the_o angel_n of_o the_o church_n of_o ephesus_n they_o can_v bear_v or_o endure_v the_o sight_n of_o such_o thing_n and_o indeed_o there_o be_v no_o way_n better_a to_o remove_v this_o object_n of_o

but_o be_v not_o and_o find_v they_o liar_n so_o we_o shall_v try_v they_o that_o say_v they_o be_v god_n child_n but_o be_v not_o and_o find_v they_o liar_n search_v they_o out_o strip_v they_o and_o whip_v they_o we_o minister_n shall_v do_v so_o in_o every_o sermon_n if_o rogue_n be_v stripe_n and_o whip_v in_o every_o town_n they_o pass_v through_o they_o will_v not_o be_v so_o bold_a and_o so_o brazen-faced_a as_o to_o sergeant_n themselves_o to_o be_v who_o they_o be_v not_o so_o if_o these_o wretch_n be_v but_o strip_v and_o discover_v by_o their_o mark_n in_o every_o sermon_n and_o well_o lash_v by_o the_o word_n of_o god_n they_o will_v not_o be_v so_o bold_a as_o to_o take_v upon_o they_o to_o be_v who_o they_o be_v not_o but_o as_o it_o be_v not_o one_o man_n that_o can_v strip_v and_o whip_v a_o company_n of_o incorrigible_a person_n they_o will_v quick_o knock_v he_o down_o than_o they_o will_v quick_o stab_v he_o with_o their_o secret_a weapon_n many_o therefore_o must_v put_v to_o their_o help_a hand_n so_o it_o be_v not_o for_o one_o or_o two_o minister_n to_o go_v about_o this_o business_n it_o will_v not_o be_v for_o their_o safety_n they_o will_v soon_o have_v their_o credit_n knock_v down_o or_o stab_v every_o one_o of_o those_o wretch_n carry_v a_o secret_a weapon_n in_o his_o mouth_n more_o sharp_a than_o any_o sword_n wherewith_o they_o can_v soon_o dispatch_v themselves_o of_o their_o single_a opposite_n no_o it_o must_v be_v a_o combination_n therefore_o the_o minister_n of_o god_n word_n must_v join_v together_o and_o resolve_v upon_o it_o to_o separate_v the_o vile_a from_o the_o precious_a to_o strip_v they_o and_o to_o whip_v they_o and_o those_o minister_n they_o must_v be_v who_o life_n and_o doctrine_n be_v both_o consonant_n to_o god_n word_n for_o if_o such_o only_a that_o smell_n too_o rank_n of_o superstition_n or_o that_o be_v notable_a for_o looseness_n of_o life_n and_o carriage_n speak_v against_o the_o vice_n of_o such_o person_n why_o all_o shall_v be_v take_v to_o be_v but_o gall_n and_o bitterness_n and_o they_o will_v think_v but_o the_o better_a of_o themselves_o for_o such_o man_n invective_n therefore_o i_o say_v other_o that_o be_v of_o a_o more_o allow_v stamp_n shall_v for_o the_o credit_n of_o god_n poor_a child_n take_v the_o matter_n in_o hand_n and_o discover_v the_o devil_n brood_n from_o the_o precious_a one_o it_o be_v the_o main_a of_o our_o saviour_n labour_n in_o all_o his_o preach_n as_o we_o all_o know_v to_o discover_v hypocrite_n indeed_o they_o themselves_o will_v well_o and_o diligent_o inveigh_v against_o the_o profane_a crew_n and_o so_o they_o ease_v we_o of_o part_n of_o our_o labour_n we_o may_v the_o better_o attend_v to_o they_o but_o true_o friend_n goodness_n be_v so_o rare_a and_o geason_a in_o these_o day_n that_o honest_a minister_n be_v glad_a to_o see_v the_o shadow_n of_o it_o in_o any_o body_n which_o when_o they_o discern_v for_o to_o encourage_v such_o person_n in_o a_o progress_n of_o good_a they_o be_v spare_v of_o they_o and_o preach_v only_o against_o other_o sin_n till_o indeed_o they_o have_v spoil_v they_o spare_v the_o rod_n and_o spoil_v the_o child_n say_v solomon_n for_o they_o hereby_o grow_v so_o proud_a so_o well_o conceit_v of_o themselves_o so_o pure_a in_o their_o own_o eye_n and_o so_o stiffnecked_a that_o they_o often_o prove_v the_o only_a murderer_n of_o our_o name_n and_o credit_n if_o ever_o after_o we_o go_v about_o to_o deal_v with_o they_o but_o at_o leastwise_o if_o we_o fear_v to_o be_v so_o venturous_a as_o to_o deal_v with_o they_o to_o discover_v the_o vile_a from_o the_o precious_a yet_o let_v we_o at_o least_o distinguish_v the_o precious_a from_o the_o vile_a discover_v the_o property_n of_o god_n true_a child_n who_o be_v always_o harmless_a holy_a well-spoken_a humble_a scarce_o dare_v ofttimes_o to_o own_o so_o high_a a_o title_n as_o the_o title_n of_o god_n child_n yea_o we_o minister_n find_v it_o that_o it_o be_v as_o hard_a sometime_o to_o persuade_v one_o of_o they_o that_o they_o be_v so_o as_o to_o persuade_v one_o of_o the_o other_o that_o they_o be_v not_o but_o we_o must_v not_o run_v any_o further_a this_o way_n we_o have_v go_v too_o far_o already_o some_o will_v say_v you_o have_v see_v now_o four_o reason_n
