public_a proceed_n i_o find_v what_o do_v somewhat_o comfort_v i_o i_o find_v first_o that_o after_o public_a humiliation_n in_o 88_o our_o most_o happy_a queen_n be_v most_o public_a and_o solemn_a in_o her_o thanksgiving_n next_o after_o our_o deliverance_n in_o 1604._o nou._n 5._o a_o set_a time_n appoint_v for_o solemn_a praise_n three_o after_o deliberation_n have_v some_o thanksgiving_n add_v to_o our_o public_a prayer_n but_o when_o we_o look_v into_o private_a passage_n alas_o we_o be_v all_o too_o blame_v we_o go_v to_o god_n in_o our_o distress_n as_o turk_n use_v to_o go_v to_o their_o mahomet_n or_o other_o to_o their_o lady_n by_o troop_n and_o caravan_n but_o when_o we_o be_v deliver_v we_o return_v like_o those_o leper_n in_o the_o gospel_n scarce_o one_o in_o ten_o in_o twenty_o in_o a_o hundred_o to_o speak_v sooth_n most_o of_o we_o have_v small_a reason_n to_o glory_n in_o our_o prayer_n they_o be_v too_o faint_a too_o few_o too_o much_o overrun_v with_o pride_n &_o unbelief_n but_o in_o thanksgiving_n we_o be_v stark_o naught_o worse_o than_o naught_o first_o we_o will_v not_o see_v wood_n for_o tree_n mercy_n for_o blessing_n when_o we_o can_v tell_v how_o to_o look_v beside_o they_o we_o will_v not_o fall_v upon_o they_o in_o our_o thought_n want_v we_o see_v and_o so_o be_v still_o crave_v favour_n we_o will_v not_o see_v and_o so_o be_v never_o thankful_a when_o speech_n be_v of_o cross_n we_o have_v all_o cross_n in_o body_n crosses_z in_o soul_n cross_n in_o estate_n cross_n in_o friend_n our_o life_n be_v make_v of_o cross_n when_o of_o

but_o sea_n second_o when_o we_o see_v we_o will_v not_o speak_v when_o we_o fall_v upon_o cross_n we_o be_v cloquent_a beyond_o truth_n we_o add_v we_o multiply_v we_o arise_v in_o our_o discourse_n like_v he_o in_o the_o poet_n i_o be_o twice_o thrice_o miferable_a nay_o ten_o time_n nay_o twenty_o time_n 〈◊〉_d nay_o a_o thousand_o time_n miserable_a but_o when_o it_o come_v to_o mercy_n we_o speak_v of_o they_o as_o malefactor_n do_v of_o their_o fault_n yield_v no_o more_o than_o what_o can_v be_v extort_a from_o we_o or_o prove_v against_o we_o as_o if_o we_o be_v loath_a to_o peach_v god_n or_o ourselves_o or_o if_o three_o we_o say_v any_o thing_n it_o be_v rather_o to_o set_v up_o ourselves_o than_o god_n and_o the_o sacrifice_n be_v intend_v to_o our_o net_n wit_n providence_n more_o than_o to_o god_n mercy_n in_o truth_n we_o serve_v ourselves_o in_o praise_n as_o ignorant_n do_v in_o prayer_n they_o set_v up_o flesh_n and_o estalish_a merit_n under_o a_o colour_n of_o prayer_n and_o we_o under_o a_o flourish_n and_o varnish_v of_o god_n be_v thank_v vent_v our_o pride_n and_o stroke_n ourselves_o the_o worst_a unthankfulness_n be_v when_o man_n love_v not_o to_o be_v behold_v to_o god_n or_o last_o if_o some_o thing_n be_v say_v that_o be_v all_o for_o little_a be_v do_v true_a thankfulness_n stand_v in_o a_o reciprocation_n of_o affection_n &_o action_n we_o shall_v return_v love_n for_o love_n and_o service_n at_o least_o for_o kindness_n but_o we_o do_v not_o so_o it_o fare_v with_o we_o as_o once_o with_o israel_n the_o care_n which_o taste_v word_n
