he_o have_v set_v bound_n to_o the_o water_n even_o until_o light_v and_o darkness_n come_v to_o a_o end_n behold_v yet_o another_o work_n of_o god_n well_o worthy_a to_o be_v remember_v namely_o that_o the_o water_n bylowe_v be_v bound_v and_o that_o god_n hold_v they_o fast_o so_o as_o they_o can_v pass_v their_o bound_n and_o that_o the_o same_o endure_v and_o shall_v continual_o endure_v unto_o the_o world_n end_n he_o have_v speak_v asore_z of_o the_o water_n above_o that_o be_v of_o the_o water_n that_o god_n draw_v up_o in_o the_o cloud_n and_o be_v hold_v in_o the_o air_n till_o he_o make_v they_o pour_v down_o in_o rain_n and_o now_o it_o be_v certain_a that_o if_o god_n do_v not_o bind_v the_o sea_n and_o the_o other_o water_n all_o the_o earth_n shall_v be_v cover_v with_o they_o if_o a_o man_n ask_v the_o philosopher_n and_o such_o as_o serche_fw-fr the_o whole_a order_n of_o nature_n they_o will_v confess_v that_o if_o the_o element_n have_v their_o full_a scope_n throughout_o according_a unto_o their_o nature_n the_o earth_n shall_v be_v hide_v under_o the_o water_n and_o in_o good_a sooth_n experience_n show_v it_o to_o be_v so_o for_o why_o be_v the_o earth_n in_o the_o middle_n of_o the_o world_n but_o because_o it_o be_v firm_a and_o substantial_a by_o reason_n of_o his_o weight_n for_o the_o water_n be_v light_a and_o there_o withal_o they_o shed_v so_o as_o they_o be_v not_o so_o firm_a consequent_o the_o air_n be_v above_o the_o water_n and_o the_o fire_n be_v also_o above_o the_o air_n we_o see_v then_o that_o the_o element_n be_v distinguish_v according_a to_o their_o property_n see_v that_o the_o air_n inviron_v the_o whole_a earth_n as_o we_o see_v the_o water_n also_o aught_o to_o go_v round_o between_o they_o both_o that_o be_v to_o say_v between_o the_o earth_n and_o the_o air_n for_o that_o be_v their_o proper_a place_n and_o situation_n and_o like_v as_o the_o fire_n overspread_v all_o so_o also_o will_v the_o water_n not_o leave_v one_o foot_n of_o dry_a ground_n the_o very_a mountain_n yea_o even_o the_o high_a of_o they_o shall_v be_v cover_v under_o they_o but_o now_o we_o see_v low_a and_o hollow_a place_n abide_v dry_a and_o yet_o the_o sea_n mount_v above_o they_o and_o so_o a_o man_n may_v perceive_v the_o reason_n that_o i_o show_v before_o for_o when_o we_o consider_v what_o a_o thing_n the_o sea_n be_v special_o when_o it_o rise_v aloft_o it_o be_v a_o wonder_n that_o the_o earth_n be_v not_o overwhelm_v by_o it_o we_o see_v here_o a_o notable_a miracle_n yea_o if_o man_n do_v not_o shut_v their_o eye_n through_o their_o own_o unthankfulness_n the_o very_a heathen_a man_n as_o reason_n drive_v they_o thereunto_o acknowledge_v that_o whereas_o it_o please_v god_n too_o have_v some_o place_n void_a the_o same_o be_v too_o plant_v mankind_n in_o it_o and_o that_o he_o have_v a_o respect_n unto_o man_n when_o he_o ordain_v a_o part_n of_o the_o earth_n to_o abide_v dry_a the_o very_a infidel_n speak_v this_o and_o why_o for_o the_o truth_n be_v so_o strong_a as_o they_o be_v enforce_v to_o confess_v it_o but_o in_o the_o mean_a while_n who_o be_v he_o that_o glorify_v god_n how_o do_v we_o acknowledge_v the_o good_a that_o he_o have_v do_v we_o we_o be_v dumb_a for_o any_o praise_v of_o he_o and_o which_o worse_o be_v we_o defile_v the_o earth_n which_o he_o have_v give_v we_o to_o dwell_v upon_o he_o have_v make_v the_o water_n too_o withdraw_v themselves_o and_o he_o have_v as_o it_o be_v fetter_v they_o up_o in_o chain_n &_o although_o he_o give_v we_o room_n here_o to_o dwell_v upon_o yet_o as_o i_o say_v we_o defile_v the_o earth_n with_o our_o filthiness_n &_o sin_n very_o all_o the_o acknoweledgement_n that_o god_n receive_v at_o our_o hand_n be_v that_o no_o man_n open_v his_o mouth_n to_o glorify_v he_o and_o so_o it_o be_v not_o without_o cause_n that_o these_o thing_n be_v tell_v we_o consider_v how_o our_o wit_n be_v so_o dull_a as_o we_o think_v not_o upon_o they_o special_o we_o must_v mark_v that_o which_o shall_v be_v say_v new_a again_o according_a also_o as_o it_o be_v speak_v of_o chief_o by_o the_o prophet_n jeremy_n which_o be_v that_o the_o sea_n be_v so_o violent_a a_o thing_n as_o there_o seem_v to_o be_v no_o mean_n to_o hold_v it_o in_o &_o yet_o for_o all_o that_o it_o be_v bar_v within_o list_n the_o sea_n seem_v to_o threaten_v to_o drown_v the_o earth_n and_o it_o seem_v that_o the_o earth_n shall_v be_v swallow_v up_o at_o the_o rush_v forth_o of_o every_o wave_n consider_v then_o that_o we_o see_v so_o great_a a_o violence_n in_o the_o sea_n which_o be_v so_o terrible_a a_o thing_n as_o it_o make_v the_o hair_n to_o stand_v up_o upon_o our_o head_n must_v we_o not_o needs_o behold_v there_o the_o mighty_a and_o invincible_a hand_n of_o god_n and_o confess_v that_o his_o power_n which_o be_v speak_v of_o here_o be_v more_o than_o manifest_a so_o much_o the_o more_o than_o ought_v we_o to_o be_v touch_v to_o the_o quick_a with_o it_o but_o what_o ▪_o when_o god_n make_v the_o sea_n to_o remove_v after_o that_o sort_n we_o have_v not_o the_o wit_n to_o know_v god_n infinite_a goodness_n towards_o we_o &_o his_o like_a power_n to_o yield_v he_o thanks_n for_o it_o and_o too_o confess_v ourselves_o behold_v too_o he_o diverse_a way_n for_o our_o life_n not_o only_o for_o create_v we_o and_o put_v we_o into_o the_o world_n &_o for_o nurrish_v we_o here_o but_o special_o for_o that_o the_o earth_n be_v not_o drown_v under_o the_o water_n and_o that_o there_o be_v some_o dry_a ground_n leave_v for_o we_o to_o dwell_v upon_o behold_v i_o say_v for_o what_o purpose_n here_o be_v special_a mention_n make_v of_o the_o sea_n and_o of_o god_n withhold_v of_o it_o so_o as_o the_o water_n be_v after_o a_o sort_n shut_v up_o in_o it_o which_o thing_n no_o chain_n nor_o cord_n can_v bring_v too_o pass_v all_o the_o wild_a beast_n of_o the_o world_n may_v easy_o be_v tame_v than_o the_o sea_n and_o yet_o god_n rule_v it_o yea_o and_o overrule_v it_o after_o a_o wonderful_a and_o incomprehensible_a manner_n and_o it_o behove_v we_o to_o mark_v the_o say_n that_o job_n add_v here_o which_o be_v that_o the_o same_o shall_v continue_v till_o light_v and_o darkness_n come_v to_o a_o end_n and_o be_v meddle_v together_o this_o be_v to_o do_v we_o to_o understand_v that_o

the_o end_n they_o shall_v learn_v to_o humble_v themselves_o and_o to_o walk_v in_o great_a wariness_n thus_o you_o see_v how_o job_n mean_v too_o augment_v the_o commendation_n of_o the_o power_n that_o be_v declare_v here_o to_o be_v in_o god_n when_o it_o be_v say_v that_o the_o water_n be_v bound_v &_o border_v till_o the_o world_n come_v to_o a_o end_n and_o till_o light_v and_o darkness_n

that_o not_o only_o the_o sea_n but_o also_o the_o ●yvers_n do_v some_o time_n get_v the_o upper_a hand_n and_o so_o pass_v their_o bound_n as_o they_o tear_v up_o all_o thing_n before_o they_o so_o that_o both_o house_n and_o vineiard_n be_v overwhelm_v and_o exceed_v great_a and_o excessive_a breach_n be_v make_v by_o violence_n of_o the_o sea_n the_o answer_n thereunto_o be_v that_o yet_o notwithstanding_o god_n cease_v not_o to_o preserve_v the_o world_n in_o general_a and_o his_o suffer_v of_o the_o sea_n to_o pass_v his_o bound_n in_o that_o wise_a be_v to_o make_v we_o to_o think_v upon_o his_o power_n which_o be_v show_v we_o here_o for_o if_o we_o be_v well_o advise_v yea_o or_o if_o there_o be_v but_o a_o little_a reason_n in_o we_o it_o be_v certain_a that_o we_o will_v

respect_n for_o the_o robber_n have_v carry_v away_o his_o good_n and_o cattle_n lightning_n from_o heaven_n have_v burn_v up_o a_o great_a part_n of_o they_o and_o a_o great_a tempest_n of_o wound_n have_v overthrow_v the_o house_n where_o his_o child_n be_v and_o they_o be_v slay_v under_o it_o although_o his_o enemy_n have_v come_v and_o carry_v away_o his_o cattle_n and_o that_o in_o the_o end_n they_o have_v break_v into_o his_o house_n &_o upon_o his_o child_n all_o this_o have_v not_o be_v so_o hard_a and_o strange_a a_o matter_n as_o when_o it_o be_v say_v that_o the_o lightning_n fall_v from_o heaven_n &_o that_o a_o mighty_a boisterous_a wind_n have_v kill_v his_o child_n for_o in_o that_o case_n job_n be_v provoke_v too_o say_v what_o a_o thing_n be_v this_o man_n be_v against_o i_o and_o god_n have_v make_v himself_o my_o enemy_n for_o from_o whence_o come_v this_o lightning_n of_o the_o air_n from_o whence_o come_v these_o hideous_a wind_n it_o be_v say_v that_o the_o wind_n be_v god_n messenger_n to_o execute_v his_o commandment_n as_o though_o they_o be_v herald_n it_o be_v say_v that_o the_o fire_n of_o heaven_n be_v as_o it_o be_v a_o sign_n of_o his_o presence_n job_n therefore_o may_v have_v conclude_v thus_o i_o see_v how_o god_n war_v against_o i_o on_o the_o one_o side_n and_o man_n on_o the_o other_o and_o there_o be_v neither_o heaven_n nor_o earth_n with_o i_o but_o all_o be_v against_o i_o alas_o whither_o may_v i_o go_v hereupon_o he_o may_v have_v be_v altogether_o plunge_v in_o despair_n we_o see_v then_o that_o when_o the_o temptation_n be_v so_o diverse_a we_o be_v much_o more_o trouble_v and_o experience_n also_o show_v so_o as_o every_o man_n may_v feel_v it_o in_o himself_o for_o if_o we_o be_v torment_v but_o after_o one_o sort_n yea_o though_o the_o same_o be_v even_o too_o the_o uttermost_a yet_o do_v we_o still_o conceive_v some_o hope_n but_o when_o one_o man_n persecute_v we_o on_o the_o one_o side_n and_o a_o other_o rise_v up_o against_o we_o on_o another_o side_n and_o the_o number_n of_o our_o enemy_n increase_v so_o as_o we_o be_v lay_v at_o on_o all_o side_n &_o it_o seem_v that_o god_n be_v against_o we_o too_o then_o can_v we_o no_o long_o hold_v out_o and_o we_o quite_o quail_v as_o they_o say_v like_o poor_a soul_n that_o be_v past_o all_o hope_n now_o when_o we_o see_v that_o this_o befall_v unto_o job_n let_v we_o mark_v it_o well_o that_o we_o may_v take_v profit_n by_o it_o assure_v ourselves_o that_o god_n will_v also_o thorough_o try_v our_o say_v the_o and_o constancy_n by_o diverse_a temptation_n when_o man_n trouble_v we_o or_o do_v we_o any_o harm_n it_o seem_v to_o we_o that_o god_n do_v we_o wrong_n if_o he_o avenge_v we_o not_o incontinent_o so_o as_o we_o will_v have_v even_o heaven_n to_o bend_v itself_o against_o our_o enemy_n to_o revenge_v the_o injury_n that_o they_o have_v do_v we_o and_o we_o consider_v not_o a_o whit_n how_o it_o be_v god_n that_o try_v we_o in_o that_o wise_a and_o that_o he_o know_v what_o be_v profitable_a and_o expedient_a for_o we_o better_o than_o we_o ourselves_o by_o the_o way_n a_o man_n may_v demand_v here_o how_o it_o happen_v that_o fire_n come_v down_o from_o heaven_n too_o burn_v up_o job_n cattle_n for_o the_o devil_n have_v not_o the_o lightning_n and_o tempest_n in_o his_o power_n we_o grant_v he_o no_o such_o sovereignty_n as_o to_o have_v dominion_n in_o the_o air_n to_o raise_v whirlewynd_n and_o tempest_n at_o his_o pleasure_n the_o answer_n hereunto_o be_v easy_a howbeit_o that_o this_o matter_n shall_v be_v handle_v more_o full_o in_o the_o next_o sermon_n neverthelater_n let_v we_o mark_v that_o although_o the_o wind_n be_v god_n herald_n to_o execute_v his_o will_n and_o that_o the_o lightning_n have_v like_o nature_n yet_o the_o devil_n work_v by_o they_o when_o god_n use_v his_o service_n as_o have_v be_v declare_v heretofore_o then_o let_v we_o think_v it_o not_o strange_a that_o god_n shall_v give_v the_o devil_n such_o a_o liberty_n as_o to_o be_v able_a to_o raise_v up_o lightning_n whirlwind_n and_o tempest_n for_o he_o be_v not_o able_a to_o do_v it_o as_o often_o and_o as_o much_o as_o he_o himself_o list_v but_o god_n serve_v his_o own_o turn_n by_o he_o as_o it_o please_v himself_o thus_o you_o see_v the_o question_n assoil_v so_o as_o you_o need_v not_o to_o marvel_v that_o the_o devil_n have_v raise_v up_o such_o a_o tempest_n and_o rage_n of_o foul_a weather_n as_o too_o beat_v down_o a_o house_n or_o that_o he_o have_v stir_v up_o the_o lightning_n of_o heaven_n that_o be_v too_o wit_n so_o far_o forth_o as_o god_n permit_v he_o special_o see_v god_n direct_v he_o too_o exercise_v the_o faith_n and_o patience_n of_o his_o
