their_o several_a congregation_n to_o do_v the_o bloody_a work_n of_o it_o will_v they_o not_o then_o believe_v there_o be_v a_o plot_n when_o they_o hear_v it_o even_o from_o their_o teacher_n own_o mouth_n i_o hope_v they_o do_v not_o know_v they_o to_o be_v such_o notorious_a liar_n but_o that_o they_o will_v believe_v what_o they_o speak_v from_o the_o very_a pulpit_n and_o though_o i_o

in_o this_o case_n now_o what_o i_o have_v propose_v i_o make_v no_o question_n but_o that_o i_o shall_v be_v able_a easy_o to_o make_v out_o to_o the_o full_a satisfaction_n of_o all_o except_v

be_v one_o seed_n of_o comfort_n they_o be_v to_o he_o as_o the_o apple_n of_o his_o eye_n they_o be_v the_o glory_n of_o christ_n they_o be_v god_n jewel_n all_o the_o rest_n of_o the_o world_n be_v but_o lumber_n wonderful_a charity_n and_o humility_n god_n have_v a_o people_n dear_a to_o he_o in_o england_n be_v the_o godly_a remove_v as_o it_o be_v the_o desire_n of_o some_o to_o give_v they_o their_o pass_n to_o be_v go_v why_o god_n will_v soon_o make_v quick_a work_n with_o the_o nation_n he_o will_v soon_o break_v up_o house_n in_o england_n be_v it_o not_o for_o the_o elect_n he_o

of_o his_o comfort_n he_o come_v in_o the_o 41._o pag._n to_o this_o caution_n but_o here_o i_o must_v insert_v a_o caution_n and_o i_o beseech_v you_o to_o observe_v though_o there_o be_v some_o light_n sow_o for_o the_o righteous_a yet_o take_v this_o caution_n expect_v a_o hour_n of_o darkness_n it_o be_v usual_o dark_a before_o morning_n thing_n be_v like_a to_o be_v worse_o with_o we_o before_o they_o be_v better_o before_o gospel-deliverance_n you_o must_v expect_v some_o sore_a pang_n and_o the_o reason_n of_o it_o be_v this_o and_o let_v i_o beseeeh_o you_o to_o mind_v his_o

tell_v you_o before_o that_o all_o be_v lumber_n and_o rubbish_n but_o themselves_o much_o rubbish_n to_o be_v remove_v before_o god_n spiritual_a temple_n will_v be_v build_v sin_n must_v be_v bring_v low_a superstition_n must_v be_v purge_v away_o the_o devil_n must_v be_v cast_v out_o and_o will_v not_o this_o think_v you_o cause_n great_a commotion_n in_o the_o church_n and_o convulsion_n fit_v before_o light_a spring_n up_o therefore_o look_v for_o a_o hour_n of_o darkness_n the_o most_o prophetic_a man_n it_o seem_v can_v foresee_v that_o we_o wicked_a superstitious_a wretch_n when_o the_o saint_n shall_v come_v to_o attaque_fw-la we_o will_v not_o stand_v still_o and_o tame_o suffer_v they_o to_o cut_v our_o throat_n and_o swallow_v all_o without_o make_v some_o bustle_n and_o resistance_n then_o he_o conclude_v in_o the_o 47._o pag._n with_o a_o encouragement_n in_o these_o word_n the_o mercy_n we_o be_v in_o expectation_n of_o they_o be_v worthy_a wait_v for_o the_o mercy_n we_o have_v pray_v for_o and_o be_v in_o expectation_n of_o they_o be_v worthy_a wait_v for_o to_o see_v the_o golden_a fleet_n of_o prayer_n come_v home_o with_o rich_a return_v be_v not_o that_o worth_n wait_v for_o to_o see_v the_o lily_n and_o the_o rose_n unite_v i_o mean_v truth_n and_o peace_n to_o see_v wickedness_n discountenance_v and_o all_o its_o force_n disband_v to_o see_v the_o beauty_n of_o holiness_n shine_v in_o our_o crystal_n to_o see_v jesus_n christ_n ride_v in_o triumph_n in_o his_o chariot_n of_o gospel-administration_n etc._n etc._n now_o be_v it_o

you_o must_v know_v be_v a_o great_a while_n ago_o and_o this_o man_n see_v light_a only_o through_o the_o keyhole_n and_o yet_o not_o so_o much_o the_o time_n of_o his_o preach_v but_o the_o time_n of_o print_v this_o sermon_n be_v chief_o to_o be_v take_v notice_n of_o and_o this_o be_v in_o the_o year_n 76._o and_o even_o then_o you_o must_v also_o consider_v that_o it_o be_v but_o early_a
