that_o there_o be_v a_o strange_a promise_n and_o inclination_n in_o every_o man_n nature_n to_o this_o sin_n of_o false_a worship_n so_o in_o deut._n 7._o 25._o 26._o god_n labour_v with_o the_o

when_o david_n &_o solomon_n have_v reign_v one_o will_v have_v think_v that_o in_o that_o space_n all_o relic_n and_o remembrance_n of_o idolatry_n have_v be_v quite_o banish_v &_o sweep_v away_o so_o that_o no_o man_n shall_v ever_o have_v persuade_v they_o to_o fall_v to_o worship_v calf_n again_o but_o no_o soon_o have_v jeroboam_fw-la part_v with_o the_o house_n of_o david_n and_o set_v up_o two_o calf_n but_o without_o any_o stay_n the_o whole_a ten_o tribe_n general_o become_v worshipper_n of_o calf_n so_o that_o the_o two_o calf_n which_o he_o set_v up_o can_v do_v more_o harm_n than_o all_o the_o good_a instruction_n and_o example_n that_o be_v in_o the_o day_n of_o david_n and_o solomon_n can_v do_v good_a to_o keep_v they_o from_o idolatry_n and_o when_o rehoboam_n have_v a_o little_a ease_n he_o begin_v to_o set_v up_o idolatry_n and_o then_o the_o people_n quick_o yield_v unto_o he_o so_o that_o both_o isarael_n and_o judah_n be_v quick_o pollute_v and_o overrun_v with_o false_a and_o idolatrous_a worship_n but_o after_o when_o hezekiah_n come_v he_o be_v a_o good_a man_n and_o stand_v for_o god_n worship_n and_o so_o near_o as_o he_o can_v sweep_v away_o all_o

ever_o before_o for_o than_o he_o will_v kill_v all_o that_o will_v hold_v up_o their_o head_n for_o god_n true_a worship_n and_o will_v not_o yield_v to_o his_o invention_n so_o that_o he_o fill_v jerusalem_n with_o innocent_a blood_n from_o corner_n to_o corner_n so_o we_o may_v see_v it_o among_o ourselves_o in_o popery_n no_o wall_n or_o window_n or_o house_n or_o church_n but_o it_o be_v full_a of_o idol_n for_o when_o god_n withdraw_v the_o light_n of_o his_o spirit_n a_o while_n all_o be_v overwelm_v with_o idolatry_n so_o prone_a be_v our_o nature_n to_o this_o spiritual_a whoredom_n the_o use_n of_o this_o be_v to_o teach_v we_o to_o avoid_v all_o mean_n and_o occasion_n that_o may_v draw_v we_o unto_o this_o filthy_a sin_n in_o which_o thing_n when_o solomon_n be_v not_o very_o circumspect_a but_o will_v marry_v with_o superstitious_a wife_n how_o quick_o do_v he_o grow_v superstitious_a like_o they_o and_o amaziah_n when_o he_o have_v overcome_v the_o edomit_n &_o put_v they_o to_o flight_n so_o that_o they_o be_v constrain_v to_o leave_v their_o god_n and_o fly_v for_o their_o life_n yet_o the_o very_a look_v on_o these_o idol_n do_v infect_v he_o for_o as_o the_o eye_n of_o a_o harlot_n and_o look_v on_o she_o will_v infect_v one_o with_o uncleanness_n so_o the_o look_v on_o a_o idol_n will_v pollute_v a_o ignorant_a and_o blind_a hart_n and_o bring_v it_o to_o confusion_n but_o david_n do_v otherwise_o for_o when_o he_o be_v follow_v the_o philistine_n and_o have_v they_o now_o in_o chase_n so_o hard_o as_o they_o be_v drive_v to_o leave_v their_o god_n and_o run_v for_o their_o life_n yet_o he_o leave_v pursue_v they_o and_o have_v rather_o stay_v for_o he_o find_v a_o great_a work_n than_o slay_v his_o enemy_n because_o he_o know_v that_o such_o be_v the_o corruption_n that_o be_v in_o his_o man_n and_o himself_o as_o that_o these_o idol_n may_v have_v do_v they_o more_o harm_n than_o all_o the_o philistine_n can_v and_o therefore_o that_o none_o may_v be_v infect_v and_o corrupt_v by_o they_o he_o and_o his_o man_n take_v they_o all_o &_o burn_v they_o with_o fire_n therefore_o if_o we_o have_v any_o care_n of_o ourselves_o and_o to_o keep_v ourselves_o from_o idolatry_n beware_v of_o the_o company_n of_o idolatrous_a person_n for_o as_o a_o honest_a &_o chaste_a woman_n can_v be_v long_o in_o the_o company_n of_o adulterer_n but_o she_o shall_v be_v stain_v with_o their_o impurity_n and_o shall_v get_v some_o blot_n by_o their_o filthiness_n so_o it_o be_v impossible_a that_o one_o shall_v converse_v long_o with_o idolater_n and_o not_o get_v some_o taint_n of_o their_o superstition_n for_o as_o a_o adulterer_n will_v first_o strive_v to_o draw_v the_o wife_n mind_n from_o her_o husband_n and_o accuse_v his_o law_n and_o deal_n as_o hard_a and_o unjust_a and_o afterward_o endeavour_v to_o draw_v to_o his_o own_o lure_n so_o it_o be_v with_o these_o spiritual_a adulterer_n first_o they_o will_v do_v what_o tkey_n can_v to_o bring_v one_o in_o dislike_n with_o god_n pure_a service_n &_o with_o his_o minister_n &_o ministry_n as_o indeed_o our_o love_n of_o christ_n

innocent_a servant_n of_o god_n so_o in_o the_o enemy_n of_o daniel_n they_o do_v indeed_o catch_v he_o as_o busy_v at_o prayer_n as_o before_o and_o it_o be_v true_a that_o he_o have_v break_v the_o

do_v to_o blab_v out_o the_o truth_n to_o such_o a_o ill_a end_n and_o with_o so_o little_a discretion_n when_o so_o ill_a a_o thing_n must_v needs_o ensue_v upon_o it_o as_o at_o the_o least_o the_o

for_o if_o they_o will_v as_o god_n bid_v tell_v the_o party_n this_o will_v heal_v the_o soul_n and_o cover_v his_o sin_n and_o make_v he_o amend_v but_o now_o to_o clamour_v in_o this_o wise_a and_o
