2._o and_o his_o beauty_n be_v then_o great_a when_o he_o shine_v in_o darkness_n and_o dwell_v in_o fire_n and_o rule_v in_o wonder_n &_o be_v fear_v in_o his_o sign_n let_v we_o learn_v by_o these_o thing_n to_o increase_v our_o faith_n and_o confidence_n in_o the_o lord_n that_o we_o may_v use_v say_v with_o david_n though_o the_o earth_n be_v remoove_v yet_o we_o will_v not_o fear_v there_o be_v a_o base_a kind_n of_o trust_n or_o confidence_n which_o man_n retain_v and_o content_v themselves_o withal_o when_o as_o they_o grow_v not_o forward_o into_o a_o most_o christian_n resolution_n not_o care_v for_o riches_n which_o be_v but_o vanity_n or_o for_o health_n which_o be_v but_o weakness_n or_o for_o life_n which_o be_v but_o temporal_a or_o for_o death_n which_o shall_v bring_v

for_o the_o misery_n of_o the_o world_n if_o as_o we_o say_v we_o care_v not_o for_o the_o world_n let_v we_o not_o care_n for_o that_o which_o we_o can_v keep_v i_o mean_v our_o life_n much_o less_o let_v we_o sin_n to_o keep_v it_o by_o unlawful_a mean_n for_o than_o we_o do_v but_o hire_v a_o lion_n to_o watch_v our_o lamb_n which_o in_o the_o end_n will_v destroy_v they_o all_o we_o can_v say_v in_o our_o health_n that_o we_o can_v comfort_v the_o sick_a but_o be_v in_o sickness_n we_o can_v receive_v none_o ourselves_o so_o there_o be_v many_o that_o make_v great_a show_n of_o faith_n and_o confidence_n in_o these_o time_n of_o health_n and_o peace_n and_o quietness_n as_o if_o they_o be_v ready_a to_o die_v for_o god_n but_o alas_o if_o the_o lord_n frown_v upon_o they_o but_o a_o
