paul_n do_v set_v forth_o abraham_n to_o the_o roman_n &_o to_o the_o galatian_n after_o this_o manner_n the_o epistle_n to_o the_o hebrew_n chap._n xi_o recite_v a_o great_a scroll_n &_o number_n

commandment_n make_v himself_o ready_a to_o slay_v his_o son_n for_o a_o sacrifice_n in_o the_o mount_n moria_n these_o personal_a act_n be_v not_o to_o be_v apply_v particular_o but_o only_o general_o for_o out_o of_o both_o these_o example_n we_o must_v learn_v obedience_n unto_o god_n in_o those_o thing_n which_o he_o require_v of_o we_o in_o his_o word_n also_o in_o this_o treatise_n of_o thexample_n of_o person_n it_o be_v manifest_a that_o the_o papist_n &_o especial_o the_o monk_n have_v dangerous_o err_v who_o &_o their_o sermon_n have_v lay_v before_o we_o i_o know_v not_o what_o counterfeit_a petty_a saint_n &_o have_v feign_v they_o to_o have_v live_v all_o their_o life_n long_o so_o blameless_a that_o they_o never_o offend_v no_o not_o in_o the_o least_o thing_n such_o a_o feign_a description_n of_o person_n make_v rather_o to_o disperation_n they_o to_o the_o edify_v of_o the_o conscience_n wrestle_v with_o the_o greatness_n of_o sin_n &_o of_o the_o wrath_n of_o god._n therefore_o let_v we_o take_v unto_o we_o true_a example_n and_o let_v we_o leave_v feign_a example_n for_o the_o poet_n which_o be_v not_o to_o be_v handle_v of_o they_o which_o be_v

hearer_n true_a godliness_n but_o also_o the_o form_n of_o live_v according_a to_o their_o kind_n of_o call_v therefore_o the_o godly_a preacher_n must_v remember_v to_o show_v forth_o example_n profitable_a unto_o godliness_n and_o not_o those_o which_o seem_v to_o cause_v desperation_n now_o it_o be_v time_n that_o we_o declare_v those_o thing_n whereof_o we_o have_v speak_v with_o a_o

then_o the_o circumstance_n of_o the_o person_n and_o of_o the_o fact_n the_o fact_n in_o itself_o do_v teach_v that_o true_a righteousness_n do_v consist_v of_o faith_n in_o the_o promise_n of_o god_n the_o circumstance_n of_o the_o person_n and_o of_o the_o fact_n do_v put_v we_o in_o mind_n of_o many_o thing_n first_o that_o circumcision_n of_o necessity_n be_v not_o require_v to_o justification_n for_o abraham_n be_v justify_v before_o circumcision_n but_o afterward_o circumcision_n be_v add_v as_o a_o seal_n of_o righteousness_n which_o be_v of_o faith_n second_o the_o

worship_v of_o god_n behold_v how_o many_o general_a sentence_n this_o first_o and_o childish_a rule_n do_v minister_v unto_o we_o whereof_o the_o last_o be_v most_o common_a and_o may_v be_v spread_v into_o many_o particular_a argument_n of_o the_o certainty_n whereof_o we_o must_v judge_v out_o of_o the_o rule_n follow_v the_o example_n be_v confirm_v in_o the_o subject_n the_o thing_n be_v confirm_v in_o the_o kind_n therefore_o when_o this_o fact_n be_v approve_v in_o david_n the_o thing_n in_o the_o kind_n ought_v not_o to_o be_v disallow_v and_o on_o the_o contrary_a side_n the_o

displease_v god_n therefore_o king_n yea_o all_o man_n which_o meddle_v with_o other_o man_n matter_n do_v displease_v god_n for_o it_o be_v the_o office_n of_o the_o priest_n not_o of_o king_n to_o offer_v the_o incense_n of_o a_o sweet_a perfewme_n ¶_o the_o second_o rule_n if_o in_o steed_n of_o the_o predicate_v superior_n be_v by_o degree_n and_o in_o order_n substitute_v as_o the_o next_o

and_o a_o man_n afflict_v gather_v thou_o from_o hence_o the_o christ_n will_v help_v the_o afflict_a ethnic_n and_o all_o man_n which_o call_v upon_o he_o and_o because_o out_o of_o the_o particular_a act_n of_o christ_n his_o office_n general_o be_v gather_v it_o be_v lawful_a to_o frame_v a_o place_n after_o this_o manner_n that_o it_o be_v the_o office_n of_o christ_n or_o of_o messiah_n to_o help_v the_o miserable_a and_o afflict_a call_n upon_o he_o ¶_o the_o third_o rule_n if_o in_o steed_n of_o the_o subject_n and_o predicate_v thou_o substitute_v by_o order_n form_n &_o kind_n plenty_n of_o common_a proposition_n will_v grow_v thereof_o as_o for_o example_n david_n commit_v adultery_n be_v banish_v aught_o of_o his_o kingdom_n therefore_o king_n grievous_o offend_v and_o general_o all_o man_n which_o live_v wicked_o shall_v some_o time_n or_o other_o suffer_v due_a punishment_n the_o filthiness_n of_o wicked_a man_n be_v drown_v in_o a_o universal_a flood_n therefore_o wicked_a man_n at_o one_o time_n or_o other_o shall_v be_v punish_v ¶_o the_o four_o rule_n to_o make_v abstracte_n sometime_o it_o be_v profitable_a out_o of_o the_o concretes_n as_o the_o believe_a woman_n of_o a_o cananite_n mat._n 15._o in_o her_o necessity_n come_v to_o christ_n call_v upon_o he_o will_v suffer_v no_o repulse_n but_o be_v more_o earnest_n even_o as_o also_o the_o ruler_n of_o the_o synagogue_n who_o believe_v do_v also_o convert_v his_o whole_a family_n unto_o the_o lord_n from_o hence_o gather_v thou_o the_o propriety_n of_o faith_n that_o be_v to_o

then_o he_o prove_v the_o increase_n and_o receive_v it_o and_o at_o length_n bring_v forth_o most_o acceptable_a fruit_n unto_o god_n this_o rule_n have_v his_o force_n out_o of_o that_o place_n which_o be_v call_v comugata_fw-la that_o be_v to_o say_v thing_n join_v together_o but_o because_o those_o thing_n which_o i_o have_v rehearse_v concern_v faith_n be_v the_o principal_a part_n of_o
