day_n be_v vex_v exile_a whip_v imprison_a set_v upon_o the_o rack_n tie_v and_o chain_v to_o the_o stake_n and_o burn_v only_o for_o this_o because_o they_o preach_v true_o the_o gospel_n of_o christ_n which_o paul_n and_o silas_n preach_v before_o because_o they_o call_v they_o from_o darkness_n to_o light_n from_o error_n to_o truth_n from_o hell_n to_o heaven_n because_o they_o open_v the_o illusion_n of_o the_o mass_n purgatory_n and_o other_o such_o peevish_a fantasy_n but_o here_o a_o man_n may_v say_v it_o seem_v that_o there_o be_v some_o other_o matter_n which_o move_v these_o ruler_n to_o lay_v up_o paul_n and_o silas_n with_o so_o straight_o a_o charge_n for_o as_o there_o be_v no_o commodity_n come_v to_o the_o ruler_n by_o the_o spirit_n of_o divination_n which_o be_v in_o the_o woman_n but_o rather_o a_o private_a gain_n to_o certain_a that_o be_v her_o master_n so_o there_o be_v no_o such_o hurt_n like_o to_o ensue_v unto_o the_o magistrate_n or_o state_n of_o the_o town_n by_o expel_v of_o he_o as_o shall_v force_v they_o to_o so_o great_a a_o fury_n therefore_o there_o be_v belike_o some_o other_o matter_n no_o but_o here_o we_o see_v most_o notable_o the_o nature_n of_o the_o wicked_a for_o it_o fall_v out_o many_o time_n wike_v the_o natu_fw-la of_o the_o wike_v that_o the_o magistrate_n which_o fear_v not_o god_n persuade_v himself_o that_o by_o policy_n and_o maintain_v of_o that_o which_o best_o like_v the_o multitude_n the_o commonwealth_n shall_v be_v both_o better_a &_o long_o maintain_v quiet_a &_o peaceable_a then_o by_o establish_v any_o thing_n be_v it_o never_o so_o good_a which_o the_o people_n like_v not_o that_o be_v one_o error_n of_o the_o magistrate_n an_o other_o thing_n that_o we_o see_v in_o they_o be_v

never_o so_o little_a or_o never_o so_o good_a and_o be_v they_o themselves_o never_o so_o full_a of_o imperfection_n for_o fear_n lest_o if_o they_o shall_v allow_v the_o doctrine_n of_o the_o

coat_n that_o have_v need_v to_o be_v amend_v that_o be_v the_o cause_n which_o make_v these_o magistrate_n stop_v the_o proceed_n of_o the_o truth_n in_o the_o first_o appear_v and_o to_o allow_v and_o encourage_v wicked_a man_n in_o their_o fury_n against_o the_o same_o when_o as_o if_o they_o have_v do_v well_o they_o shall_v have_v correct_v the_o covetous_a abuse_n of_o the_o devil_n and_o have_v praise_v the_o good_a man_n that_o do_v open_v it_o &_o have_v thank_v god_n that_o have_v reveal_v this_o abuse_n unto_o they_o here_o we_o see_v another_o abuse_n and_o folly_n that_o be_v in_o those_o magistrate_n for_o they_o present_o upon_o the_o cry_n &_o exclamation_n of_o two_o or_o three_o lewd_a fellow_n without_o examination_n of_o either_o cause_n or_o party_n send_v good_a man_n to_o the_o prison_n and_o let_v the_o varlet_n go_v unpunished_a last_o we_o see_v the_o dulness_n and_o blindness_n of_o such_o magistrate_n who_o the_o lord_n do_v not_o bless_v they_o can_v not_o see_v the_o right_a cause_n of_o this_o tumult_n which_o be_v a_o covetous_a mind_n neither_o can_v they_o perceive_v the_o policy_n of_o the_o devil_n in_o shadow_v this_o cause_n for_o the_o wicked_a come_v not_o to_o the_o magistrate_n &_o say_v sir_n they_o by_o their_o preach_n have_v take_v away_o our_o gain_n and_o commodity_n for_o than_o it_o may_v easy_o have_v be_v perceive_v from_o whence_o their_o heat_n proceed_v but_o they_o colour_n their_o covetousness_n with_o a_o other_o shadow_n and_o say_v sir_n these_o man_n which_o be_v jew_n trouble_v our_o city_n they_o preach_v ordinance_n which_o be_v not_o lawful_a for_o we_o to_o receive_v neither_o to_o observe_v see_v we_o be_v roman_n so_o we_o see_v that_o it_o be_v a_o common_a thing_n to_o entitle_v that_o truth_n which_o we_o think_v will_n in_o time_n overthrow_v our_o pride_n &_o our_o covetousness_n with_o rebellion_n sedition_n &_o conspiracy_n by_o that_o mean_v to_o make_v it_o a_o cloak_n for_o lewdness_n &_o knavery_n now_o we_o see_v the_o cause_n of_o this_o straight_a charge_n which_o the_o magistrate_n give_v unto_o the_o jailor_n we_o learn_v here_o again_o that_o the_o lord_n suffer_v even_o his_o elect_a &_o choose_v for_o a_o time_n to_o run_v in_o the_o path_n of_o sinner_n that_o he_o do_v exercise_v they_o with_o great_a temptation_n &_o that_o he_o bring_v they_o even_o to_o the_o brink_n of_o hell_n and_o desperation_n &_o yet_o recal_v they_o &_o even_o then_o when_o they_o be_v far_a go_v &_o least_o think_v of_o succour_n then_o be_v the_o lord_n near_o unto_o they_o as_o be_v here_o to_o be_v see_v by_o the_o example_n of_o this_o woeful_a jailor_n and_o many_o other_o such_o like_a in_o the_o scripture_n for_o when_o abraham_n have_v hope_v beyond_o hope_n &_o have_v wait_v for_o the_o promise_n till_o it_o be_v pass_v both_o man_n help_n and_o hope_n yet_o then_o do_v the_o lord_n keep_v promise_v when_o he_o least_o think_v it_o when_o the_o same_o

from_o water_n from_o fire_n from_o wild_a beast_n and_o from_o desperation_n and_o cruel_a enemy_n that_o nothing_o may_v hinder_v they_o from_o that_o happy_a hour_n wherein_o the_o lord_n have_v
