must_v touch_v his_o lip_n that_o which_o in_o all_o reason_n will_v have_v make_v he_o speak_v worse_o by_o god_n appointment_n and_o the_o power_n of_o his_o word_n shall_v make_v he_o speak_v

they_o seem_v so_o contrary_a or_o so_o weak_a in_o themselves_o or_o in_o their_o mean_n let_v this_o teach_v all_o man_n not_o to_o contemn_v the_o sacrament_n though_o the_o outward_a base_a

work_v upon_o the_o conscience_n of_o man_n by_o his_o word_n and_o sacrament_n and_o again_o when_o we_o see_v grace_n and_o holiness_n convey_v into_o man_n heart_n by_o the_o word_n and_o sacrament_n let_v we_o learn_v not_o to_o ascribe_v it_o to_o the_o dignity_n either_o of_o the_o minister_n or_o the_o element_n but_o to_o the_o supreme_a power_n of_o the_o mighty_a god_n who_o

the_o world_n for_o though_o it_o be_v a_o worthy_a gift_n of_o god_n to_o speak_v mild_o and_o moderate_o so_o that_o his_o speech_n shall_v fall_v like_o dew_n upon_o the_o grass_n yet_o it_o be_v the_o firerie_a tongue_n that_o beat_v down_o sin_n and_o work_v sound_a grace_n in_o the_o heart_n it_o may_v be_v there_o be_v some_o which_o need_v the_o fiery_a tongue_n this_o show_v apparent_o that_o those_o minister_n never_o have_v their_o lip_n touch_v with_o a_o coal_n from_o god_n altar_n that_o be_v their_o soul_n with_o a_o coal_n from_o god_n altar_n that_o be_v their_o sin_n
