and_o indeed_o it_o be_v very_o strange_a if_o god_n shall_v be_v so_o free_a and_o liberal_a as_o to_o give_v a_o way_n all_o his_o own_o right_n and_o let_v his_o creature_n do_v even_o as_o they_o

take_v they_o to_o be_v very_o glorious_a saint_n they_o do_v so_o glitter_v in_o a_o outward_a profession_n and_o perform_v such_o splendid_a work_n of_o devotion_n but_o if_o you_o come_v near_o to_o they_o and_o handle_v they_o you_o will_v find_v they_o hot_a without_o and_o cold_a within_o full_a of_o fierceness_n and_o violence_n in_o their_o external_a motion_n but_o void_a of_o all_o true_a love_n and_o goodness_n in_o their_o heart_n i_o have_v sometime_o compare_v they_o in_o my_o own_o thought_n unto_o those_o indian_a calico_n which_o when_o we_o behold_v afar_o off_o seem_v to_o be_v a_o rare_a needlework_n of_o all_o sort_n of_o silk_n but_o when_o we_o come_v close_o to_o they_o be_v only_o thin_a paint_a stuff_n that_o have_v neither_o substance_n nor_o cost_n in_o it_o these_o man_n look_v like_o the_o king_n daughter_n who_o garment_n be_v of_o needle_n work_n and_o wrought_v gold_n whereby_o you_o will_v imagine_v that_o they_o be_v all_o glorious_a within_o also_o but_o if_o you_o come_v to_o deal_v with_o they_o you_o shall_v see_v by_o many_o of_o their_o action_n that_o this_o outward_a bravery_n be_v a_o mere_a varnish_n and_o gloss_n that_o they_o set_v upon_o themselves_o some_o paint_a raiment_n to_o hide_v their_o nakedness_n but_o which_o a_o observant_a eye_n may_v easy_o look_v through_o it_o be_v so_o thin_a and_o beggarly_a 11._o especial_o observe_v how_o many_o of_o they_o change_v with_o time_n and_o occasion_n and_o say_v that_o they_o must_v follow_v providence_n if_o you_o follow_v they_o close_o you_o will_v soon_o find_v that_o as_o their_o profit_n lead_v they_o so_o they_o cry_v up_o particular_a piece_n of_o godliness_n just_o like_o alcibiades_n who_o as_o plutarch_n say_v of_o a_o flatterer_n at_o athens_n be_v a_o gallant_a amic_a de_fw-fr discrim_n adul_a &_o amic_a and_o at_o sparta_n wear_v a_o threadbare_a cloak_n in_o thracia_n be_v a_o warrior_n and_o at_o tissapherne_n give_v himself_o to_o pride_n and_o luxury_n so_o do_v these_o man_n vary_v according_a as_o several_a humour_n stir_v within_o they_o sometime_o they_o will_v have_v all_o god_n people_n be_v no_o less_o than_o king_n and_o at_o other_o time_n they_o must_v be_v as_o poor_a as_o beggar_n sometime_o they_o pine_v and_o macerate_v themselves_o with_o fast_v and_o again_o they_o think_v that_o none_o but_o they_o may_v make_v a_o free_a use_n of_o the_o creature_n many_o of_o they_o there_o be_v that_o will_v sail_v with_o every_o wind_n if_o it_o blow_v they_o any_o profit_n and_o all_o of_o they_o be_v carry_v as_o the_o fierce_a gust_n of_o their_o various_a passion_n do_v make_v a_o zealous_a bluster_n in_o they_o but_o a_o good_a man_n who_o direct_v his_o life_n not_o by_o his_o worldly_a interest_n or_o mutable_a fancy_n but_o by_o the_o word_n of_o god_n he_o always_o steer_v the_o same_o course_n and_o remain_v constant_o the_o same_o man_n as_o that_o word_n do_v who_o righteousness_n be_v everlasting_a we_o may_v say_v of_o he_o as_o the_o same_o plutarch_n do_v of_o those_o brave_a man_n epimanondas_n and_o agesilaus_n 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d they_o have_v

as_o he_o be_v before_o dion_n he_o change_v not_o his_o behaviour_n with_o place_n and_o person_n for_o he_o walk_v before_o god_n who_o be_v always_o the_o same_o and_o change_v not_o 12._o and_o if_o any_o of_o these_o man_n we_o have_v be_v treat_v of_o be_v so_o hardy_a as_o to_o suffer_v for_o their_o opinion_n for_o i_o can_v call_v it_o nothing_o else_o and_o not_o always_o cast_v to_o be_v on_o the_o thrive_a side_n yet_o it_o be_v with_o a_o full_a bad_a will_n and_o they_o be_v so_o far_o from_o bear_v it_o meek_o and_o patient_o that_o they_o struggle_v by_o all_o mean_n to_o throw_v the_o cross_n from_o off_o their_o shoulder_n if_o there_o be_v any_o way_n to_o ease_v themselves_o they_o inquire_v not_o much_o whether_o it_o be_v good_a or_o bad_a but_o be_v easy_o incline_v to_o think_v that_o providence_n make_v a_o offer_n to_o they_o for_o their_o deliverance_n though_o it_o be_v by_o unlawful_a mean_n such_o as_o they_o will_v not_o have_v spare_v saul_n if_o they_o have_v be_v in_o david_n case_n when_o he_o have_v he_o at_o his_o mercy_n but_o they_o will_v have_v applaud_v abishai_n for_o a_o saint_n who_o say_v god_n have_v deliver_v thy_o enemy_n
