cause_n why_o man_n shall_v be_v so_o give_v to_o this_o world_n for_o they_o must_v leave_v it_o when_o they_o have_v do_v all_o that_o they_o can_v as_o we_o say_v to_o day_n a_o man_n to_o morrow_n none_o and_o as_o the_o apostle_n 6._o say_v we_o bring_v nothing_o into_o this_o world_n and_o it_o be_v certain_a we_o shall_v carry_v nothing_o out_o we_o must_v all_o die_v we_o know_v not_o how_o soon_o why_o therefore_o shall_v man_n set_v their_o heart_n upon_o such_o uncertain_a and_o deceivable_a thing_n for_o all_o thing_n in_o this_o world_n be_v more_o light_n than_o a_o feather_n more_o brittle_a than_o glass_n more_o fléete_a than_o a_o shadow_n more_o vanish_v then_o smoke_n more_o unconstant_a than_o the_o wind_n doubtless_o say_v the_o prophet_n david_n man_n walk_v in_o a_o shadow_n and_o disquiet_v himself_o in_o vain_a he_o heap_v up_o riches_n and_o can_v tell_v who_o shall_v gather_v they_o psalm_n 39_o 6._o i_o wonder_v therefore_o that_o these_o moule_n and_o muck-worme_n of_o this_o earth_n shall_v so_o mind_v these_o shadowish_a thing_n and_o so_o dote_v on_o they_o as_o they_o do_v if_o they_o be_v not_o altogether_o harden_v and_o blind_v by_o the_o devil_n they_o will_v not_o be_v so_o near_o knit_v to_o the_o clod_n and_o the_o penny_n as_o they_o be_v think_v and_o always_o imagine_v that_o there_o be_v no_o happiness_n but_o in_o these_o thing_n which_o be_v but_o dung_n and_o dross_n and_o at_o last_o they_o will_v give_v we_o the_o slip_n when_o we_o think_v ourselves_o most_o sure_o of_o they_o the_o wise_a king_n who_o have_v the_o great_a experience_n of_o these_o thing_n that_o ever_o man_n have_v for_o he_o enjoy_v whatsoever_o this_o world_n can_v afford_v upward_o and_o downward_o backward_o and_o forward_o yet_o can_v find_v nothing_o in_o they_o but_o vanity_n and_o vexation_n of_o spirit_n moreover_o he_o flat_o avouch_v that_o all_o these_o thing_n riches_n wealth_n honour_n pleasure_n and_o treasure_n will_v most_o notable_o deceive_v we_o in_o the_o end_n give_v we_o the_o slip_n and_o be_v go_v for_o he_o compare_v riches_n and_o all_o the_o glory_n of_o this_o world_n to_o a_o eagle_n or_o hawk_n which_o a_o man_n hold_v upon_o his_o fist_n stroke_v she_o make_v of_o she_o take_v great_a delight_n and_o pleasure_n in_o she_o and_o say_v he_o will_v not_o take_v ten_o pound_n for_o she_o yet_o all_o on_o the_o sudden_a she_o take_v her_o flight_n and_o fly_v up_o into_o the_o air_n and_o he_o never_o seethe_v she_o more_o nor_o she_o he_o the_o word_n of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n be_v these_o will_v thou_o cause_v thy_o eye_n to_o 5._o fly_v after_o they_o mean_v riches_n thou_o may_v but_o they_o will_v not_o be_v find_v for_o they_o will_v make_v themselves_o wing_n like_o to_o the_o eagle_n which_o fly_v up_o to_o heaven_n from_o thence_o we_o may_v learn_v that_o though_o we_o set_v our_o heart_n never_o so_o much_o on_o any_o thing_n here_o below_o yet_o at_o the_o last_o it_o shall_v be_v take_v from_o we_o or_o we_o from_o it_o therefore_o all_o worldly_a man_n do_v but_o weave_v the_o spider_n web_n and_o may_v fit_o be_v compare_v to_o the_o silly_a spider_n who_o toil_v herself_o and_o labour_v all_o the_o week_n long_o to_o finish_v up_o her_o web_n that_o she_o may_v lodge_v herself_o in_o it_o as_o in_o her_o own_o house_n and_o free_a hold_v but_o alas_o at_o the_o week_n end_n a_o maid_n in_o a_o moment_n with_o one_o brush_n of_o a_o broom_n dispessess_v she_o of_o she_o in_o heritance_n which_o she_o have_v purchase_v with_o great_a labour_n and_o much_o ado_n even_o so_o when_o the_o man_n of_o this_o world_n have_v with_o much_o care_n and_o travel_n purchase_v great_a land_n and_o revenue_n and_o gather_v all_o that_o they_o can_v yet_o on_o the_o sudden_a death_n with_o one_o stroke_n of_o his_o direful_a dart_n will_v make_v they_o give_v up_o the_o ghost_n and_o then_o where_o be_v they_o it_o be_v pretty_o therefore_o say_v of_o a_o man_n in_o the_o light_n of_o nature_n no_o man_n have_v ever_o live_v polym_n so_o happy_o in_o this_o life_n but_o in_o his_o life-time_n many_o thing_n have_v befall_v he_o for_o the_o which_o he_o have_v wish_v rather_o to_o die_v then_o to_o live_v and_o assure_o i_o think_v there_o be_v never_o any_o man_n live_v any_o one_o day_n upon_o the_o fare_n of_o this_o earth_n but_o some_o grief_n
