the_o wilderness_n to_o tremble_v the_o lord_n make_v the_o wilderness_n of_o kadesh_n to_o tremble_v the_o voice_n of_o the_o lord_n make_v the_o hind_n to_o bring_v forth_o young_a and_o unbare_v

in_o this_o psalm_n so_o full_a of_o life_n and_o vigour_n have_v all_o body_n and_o no_o soul_n how_o shall_v we_o expound_v the_o next_o verse_n the_o lord_n sit_v upon_o the_o water-flood_n and_o

the_o soul_n of_o his_o people_n like_o a_o flock_n will_v you_o have_v he_o proteus-like_a to_o feed_v sea-monster_n it_o be_v true_a that_o all_o thing_n according_a to_o their_o several_a degree_n have_v their_o dependence_n and_o expectance_n from_o god_n yet_o so_o narrow_a and_o straitend_v sense_n as_o the_o bare_a letter_n suit_n not_o here_o i_o think_v with_o the_o majesty_n and_o

after_o 4._o i_o will_v only_o add_v this_o four_o proof_n or_o illustration_n more_o and_o so_o go_v on_o 1_o king_n 19_o and_o the_o lord_n say_v unto_o elias_n go_v forth_o and_o stand_v upon_o

but_o the_o lord_n be_v not_o in_o the_o fire_n and_o after_o the_o fire_n a_o still_o small_a voice_n the_o voice_n of_o he_o that_o speak_v as_o never_o man_n speak_v but_o i_o will_v not_o have_v any_o mistake_v as_o if_o the_o fear_n of_o god_n which_o be_v say_v to_o be_v the_o beginning_n of_o wisdom_n be_v but_o a_o hour_n amazement_n or_o at_o most_o but_o a_o wonder_n of_o nine_o day_n

the_o fear_n of_o the_o lord_n be_v to_o hate_v evil_a as_o pride_n and_o arrogancy_n and_o the_o evil_a way_n now_o that_o which_o a_o man_n true_o hate_v he_o will_v do_v the_o utmost_a of_o his_o

of_o the_o lord_n eschew_v evil_a and_o do_v good_a say_v he_o so_o that_o a_o lazy_a inert_n sluggish_a hatred_n be_v not_o sufficient_a see_v how_o that_o victorious_a king_n use_v his_o enemy_n in_o psal._n 18._o i_o have_v pursue_v my_o enemy_n and_o take_v they_o and_o have_v not_o return_v again_o till_o i_o have_v consume_v they_o i_o have_v wound_v they_o that_o they_o be_v not_o able_a

man_n enemy_n be_v they_o of_o his_o own_o household_n corruption_n reside_v in_o a_o man_n own_o breast_n which_o he_o will_v never_o leave_v fight_v against_o till_o he_o have_v the_o victory_n if_o he_o true_o hate_v they_o which_o he_o will_v true_o hate_v if_o he_o unfeigned_o fear_v god_n so_o that_o the_o fear_v of_o god_n be_v the_o victory_n over_o corruption_n which_o victory_n over_o
