and_o guide_v they_o with_o the_o skilfulness_n of_o his_o hand_n psal_n 78.72_o it_o have_v teach_v the_o prodigal_a skill_n indeed_o he_o can_v say_v now_o as_o david_n come_v ●y_a brethren_n and_o i_o can_v tell_v you_o what_o god_n have_v do_v for_o my_o soul_n how_o he_o deliver_v i_o and_o instruct_v i_o now_o i_o be_o make_v able_a to_o divide_v the_o word_n aright_o there_o be_v great_a

before_o he_o have_v no_o heart_n to_o pity_v stranger_n till_o he_o be_v fall_v among_o thief_n etc._n etc._n and_o now_o after_o his_o come_n home_o he_o be_v able_a to_o instruct_v and_o teach_v

the_o while_o we_o be_v in_o the_o house_n we_o be_v novice_n we_o have_v learn_v no_o skill_n how_o to_o instruct_v other_o for_o we_o have_v learn_v none_o ourselves_o but_o now_o the_o burn_a child_n dread_v the_o fire_n when_o we_o have_v run_v our_o round_n try_v what_o be_v in_o madness_n and_o folly_n it_o bring_v forth_o skill_n and_o who_o be_v fit_a to_o bring_v up_o a_o people_n in_o the_o wisdom_n and_o fear_n of_o the_o lord_n but_o such_o as_o have_v go_v down_o to_o the_o deep_n as_o joseph_n do_v first_o he_o have_v be_v prove_v and_o try_v himself_o he_o be_v separate_v

expect_v a_o diligent_a hand_n in_o all_o your_o service_n and_o that_o beautify_v the_o work_n but_o to_o beautify_v a_o slothful_a hand_n be_v like_a to_o the_o put_v a_o ring_n in_o a_o swine_n

ask_v pity_n but_o this_o christ_n submit_v to_o and_o all_o your_o soul_n must_v come_v to_o it_o that_o shall_v enter_v into_o life_n and_o there_o be_v three_o reason_n for_o it_o 1._o he_o must_v be_v dumb_a that_o he_o may_v stand_v to_o his_o word_n and_o make_v that_o good_a he_o have_v consent_v and_o speak_v the_o word_n thy_o will_v be_v do_v and_o he_o shall_v now_o contradict_v himself_o and_o his_o heart_n will_v reproach_v his_o mouth_n as_o job_n say_v if_o he_o shall_v shrink_v away_o and_o complain_v for_o this_o be_v to_o have_v his_o will_n do_v and_o not_o go_n 2._o he_o must_v be_v dumb_a that_o he_o may_v give_v no_o ill_a example_n to_o other_o he_o be_v call_v the_o lamb_n without_o spot_n no_o flaw_n must_v be_v in_o the_o truth_n if_o the_o captain_n turn_v his_o back_n alas_o this_o will_v soon_o dishearten_v all_o his_o soldier_n if_o he_o shall_v complain_v and_o murmur_v who_o will_v not_o learn_v murmur_v and_o stand_v to_o plead_v for_o it_o it_o be_v certain_a we_o learn_v evil_a one_o of_o another_o if_o we_o see_v another_o break_v out_o froward_o under_o a_o cross_n we_o present_o learn_v to_o be_v unruly_a and_o froward_a with_o the_o froward_a thou_o will_v show_v thyself_o froward_a but_o now_o he_o must_v bear_v the_o hand_n quiet_o and_o meck_o and_o patient_o to_o leave_v a_o good_a example_n for_o his_o people_n to_o walk_v in_o the_o same_o step_n 3._o he_o be_v dumb_a that_o he_o may_v not_o forfeit_v all_o his_o work_n and_o lose_v all_o his_o reward_n one_o dead_a fly_n spoil_v the_o whole_a box_n of_o ointment_n and_o he_o that_o keep_v the_o whole_a law_n and_o fail_v in_o one_o point_n be_v guilty_a of_o all_o not_o to_o go_v quite_o through_o with_o the_o work_n be_v to_o lose_v all_o and_o to_o complain_v and_o murmur_v that_o be_v to_o fly_v from_o the_o hand_n and_o shrink_v from_o the_o work_n and_o that_o will_v hinder_v the_o reward_n and_o be_v record_v for_o a_o evil_a among_o all_o the_o other_o good_a yet_o this_o come_v in_o as_o a_o flaw_n in_o this_o thou_o have_v do_v foolish_o and_o thus_o you_o may_v see_v a_o picture_n of_o christ_n upon_o the_o cross_n but_o you_o can_v feel_o know_v the_o thing_n till_o you_o shall_v come_v to_o the_o execution_n of_o it_o upon_o yourselves_o and_o feel_v the_o same_o in_o all_o these_o particular_n 1._o then_o for_o use_n
