into_o the_o most_o lively_a act_n of_o life_n what_o be_v it_o but_o the_o miracle_n as_o it_o be_v of_o resurrection_n and_o ascension_n both_o at_o once_o at_o least_o from_o the_o low_a stair_n of_o misery_n to_o be_v raise_v to_o the_o high_a of_o happiness_n and_o not_o gradatim_fw-la by_o degree_n and_o step_n but_o per_fw-la saltum_fw-la by_o a_o motion_n more_o swift_a than_o the_o fiery_a chariot_n that_o carry_v up_o elias_n into_o heaven_n and_o so_o the_o change_n not_o more_o wonderful_a than_o the_o suddenness_n mourn_v turn_v into_o dance_v a_o wonderful_a change_n and_o do_v as_o it_o be_v in_o the_o turn_n of_o a_o hand_n as_o wonderful_a a_o suddenness_n and_o now_o to_o make_v i_o fit_a for_o dance_v thou_o have_v put_v off_o my_o sackcloth_n and_o gird_v i_o with_o gladness_n for_o indeed_o if_o i_o have_v keep_v on_o my_o sackcloth_n still_o i_o shall_v have_v make_v but_o a_o heavy_a dancer_n but_o now_o that_o my_o sackcloth_n be_v off_o and_o i_o be_o gird_v with_o gladness_n i_o shall_v leap_v as_o light_v as_o abraham_n do_v to_o see_v thy_o day_n i_o put_v on_o sackcloth_n when_o i_o be_v a_o mourner_n but_o now_o that_o i_o be_o to_o be_v a_o dancer_n i_o be_o gird_v with_o gladness_n and_o if_o i_o mourn_v before_o to_o think_v of_o god_n anger_n may_v i_o not_o just_o dance_v now_o to_o think_v of_o his_o favour_n if_o i_o put_v on_o sackcloth_n before_o as_o sorrow_v for_o my_o sin_n may_v i_o not_o just_o now_o be_v gird_v with_o gladness_n as_o rejoice_v in_o my_o saviour_n for_o though_o it_o be_v god_n mercy_n that_o have_v do_v this_o for_o i_o yet_o it_o be_v his_o mercy_n in_o christ_n my_o saviour_n without_o who_o his_o mercy_n alone_o will_v never_o have_v do_v it_o he_o will_v never_o have_v put_v off_o my_o sackcloth_n and_o gird_v i_o with_o gladness_n but_o for_o his_o sake_n and_o through_o his_o mean_n that_o be_v anoint_a with_o the_o oil_n of_o gladness_n above_o his_o fellow_n my_o sackcloth_n be_v but_o a_o loose_a garment_n about_o i_o which_o may_v easy_o be_v put_v off_o at_o pleasure_n but_o my_o gladness_n be_v gird_v about_o i_o to_o be_v fast_o and_o sure_a and_o can_v leave_v i_o though_o it_o will_v at_o least_o none_o shall_v be_v able_a to_o take_v it_o from_o i_o and_o now_o though_o this_o be_v speak_v here_o in_o the_o case_n of_o david_n yet_o it_o may_v be_v conceive_v as_o in_o type_n for_o all_o the_o godly_a if_o they_o mourn_v and_o lie_v in_o sackcloth_n now_o yet_o they_o shall_v ere_o long_o be_v gird_v with_o gladness_n and_o dance_v for_o joy_n but_o what_o dance_n not_o like_o that_o of_o herodias_n daughter_n for_o which_o herod_n allow_v she_o to_o ask_v half_a his_o kingdom_n but_o like_o that_o of_o david_n before_o the_o ark_n for_o which_o god_n without_o ask_v will_v give_v we_o a_o whole_a kingdom_n and_o when_o shall_v the_o time_n be_v alas_o it_o can_v be_v long_o for_o they_o shall_v not_o go_v out_o of_o egypt_n into_o canaan_n as_o the_o old_a israelite_n do_v by_o the_o tedious_a passage_n of_o a_o troublesome_a wilderness_n but_o their_o mourn_a shall_v be_v turn_v into_o dance_v a_o conversion_n as_o sudden_a as_o when_o moses_n his_o leprous_a hand_n be_v turn_v to_o be_v sound_a again_o by_o put_v it_o only_o in_o his_o bosom_n but_o to_o what_o end_n be_v it_o that_o god_n have_v do_v verse_n 12_o this_o for_o i_o it_o may_v be_v think_v because_o he_o have_v turn_v my_o mourn_v into_o dance_v and_o have_v gird_v i_o with_o gladness_n that_o he_o have_v do_v it_o to_o this_o end_n that_o i_o may_v live_v in_o
