the_o man_n who_o godliness_n do_v make_v rich_a for_o when_o the_o blessing_n of_o the_o lord_n make_v rich_a say_v solomon_n he_o do_v add_v no_o sorrow_n to_o it_o 22._o but_o say_v he_o the_o revenue_n of_o the_o wicked_a be_v trouble_v as_o though_o his_o money_n be_v care_n wherefore_o let_v patron_n and_o landlord_n and_o lawyer_n and_o all_o say_v now_o that_o paul_n have_v choose_v the_o better_a riches_n which_o thief_n nor_o moth_a nor_o canker_n can_v corrupt_v these_o be_v the_o riches_n at_o last_o which_o we_o must_v dwell_v with_o when_o all_o the_o rest_n which_o we_o have_v lie_v for_o and_o swear_v for_o and_o fret_v for_o and_o cozen_v for_o and_o break_v our_o sleep_n for_o &_o lose_v many_o sermon_n for_o forsake_v we_o like_o servant_n which_o change_v their_o master_n then_o godliness_n shall_v seem_v as_o great_a gain_n to_o we_o as_o it_o do_v to_o paul_n and_o he_o which_o love_v the_o world_n most_o will_v give_v all_o that_o he_o have_v for_o a_o dram_n of_o faith_n that_o he_o may_v be_v sure_a to_o go_v to_o heaven_n when_o he_o be_v dead_a though_o he_o go_v towards_o hell_n so_o long_o as_o he_o live_v here_o then_o be_v a_o answer_n

of_o godliness_n be_v not_o the_o word_n go_v forth_o yet_o which_o have_v kill_v covetousness_n that_o i_o may_v end_v my_o sermon_n either_o you_o go_v away_o content_v or_o else_o you_o go_v away_o condemn_v of_o your_o own_o conscience_n before_o you_o be_v vex_v with_o covetousness_n but_o now_o the_o word_n shall_v vex_v you_o too_o for_o you_o shall_v never_o covet_v nor_o lie_v nor_o

not_o unto_o covetousness_n as_o though_o a_o man_n can_v not_o be_v covetous_a &_o have_v leisure_n to_o think_v upon_o any_o good_a 25._o but_o as_o john_n baptize_v with_o water_n so_o i_o can_v

his_o disciple_n be_v not_o friend_n to_o riches_n but_o make_v you_o friend_n of_o riches_n &_o know_v this_o that_o if_o you_o can_v say_v as_o paul_n say_v 12._o i_o have_v learned_a to_o be_v

therefore_o as_o christ_n say_v if_o the_o son_n make_v you_o free_a 46._o you_o shall_v be_v free_a indeed_o so_o i_o say_v if_o godliness_n make_v you_o rich_a you_o shall_v be_v rich_a indeed_o

therefore_o devise_v the_o likely_a policy_n to_o frustrate_v &_o disgrace_v but_o one_o of_o his_o sermon_n thereby_o to_o make_v the_o people_n more_o unwilling_a to_o hear_v he_o again_o 6._o as_o he_o set_v eve_n upon_o adam_n and_o make_v job_n wife_n his_o instrument_n 9_o when_o he_o can_v not_o fit_v it_o himself_o so_o he_o send_v christ_n mother_n and_o put_v in_o the_o mind_n of_o his_o

the_o grace_n and_o peace_n and_o joy_n of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n fill_v all_o the_o heart_n that_o as_o joseph_n have_v no_o need_n of_o astronomy_n 15._o because_o he_o have_v the_o spirit_n of_o

be_v a_o comforter_n like_o a_o sweet_a perfume_n which_o take_v away_o the_o evil_n send_v and_o leave_v a_o pleasant_a send_v for_o it_o as_o the_o unicorn_n dip_v his_o horn_n in_o the_o fountain_n and_o make_v the_o water_n which_o be_v corrupt_a and_o noisome_a clear_a and_o wholesome_a upon_o the_o sudden_a so_o whatsoever_o estate_n godliness_n come_v unto_o it_o say_v like_o the_o apostle_n peace_n be_v to_o this_o house_n peace_n be_v to_o this_o heart_n peace_n be_v to_o this_o man_n i_o may_v liken_v it_o to_o the_o five_o loaf_n and_o two_o fish_n wherewith_o christ_n feed_v five_o thousand_o person_n 9_o and_o yet_o there_o be_v twelve_o basket_n full_a of_o that_o which_o be_v leave_v which_o can_v not_o fill_v one_o basket_n when_o it_o be_v whole_a thus_o their_o little_a feast_n be_v make_v a_o great_a feast_n so_o the_o godly_a though_o they_o have_v but_o little_a for_o themselves_o yet_o they_o have_v something_o for_o other_o like_o the_o widow_n mite_n 42_o that_o they_o may_v say_v as_o the_o disciple_n say_v to_o christ_n 35._o they_o want_v nothing_o though_o they_o have_v nothing_o contentation_n want_v nothing_o and_o a_o good_a heart_n be_v worth_a all_o for_o if_o she_o want_v bread_n 32._o she_o can_v say_v as_o christ_n say_v i_o have_v another_o bread_n if_o she_o want_v riches_n she_o can_v say_v i_o have_v other_o riches_n if_o she_o want_v strength_n she_o can_v say_v i_o have_v other_o strength_n if_o she_o want_v friend_n she_o can_v say_v i_o have_v other_o friend_n thus_o the_o godly_a find_v all_o within_o that_o the_o godless_a seek_v without_o therefore_o if_o you_o see_v a_o man_n content_v with_o that_o which_o he_o have_v it_o be_v a_o great_a sign_n that_o godliness_n be_v enter_v into_o he_o for_o the_o heart_n of_o man_n be_v make_v a_o temple_n of_o god_n 16._o &_o nothing_o can_v fill_v it_o but_o god_n alone_o 12._o therefore_o paul_n say_v after_o his_o conversion_n that_o which_o he_o can_v never_o say_v before_o his_o conversion_n i_o have_v learned_a to_o be_v content_a first_o he_o learn_v godliness_n than_o godliness_n teach_v he_o contentation_n now_o say_v paul_n i_o have_v learned_a to_o be_v content_a as_o though_o this_o be_v a_o lesson_n for_o every_o christian_n to_o learn_v to_o be_v content_a for_o thus_o he_o must_v think_v that_o as_o god_n say_v to_o moses_n when_o he_o can_v not_o obtain_v leave_n to_o go_v to_o canaan_n 26._o let_v this_o suffice_v thou_o to_o see_v canaan_n so_o whatsoever_o he_o give_v he_o give_v this_o charge_n with_o it_o let_v this_o suffice_v thou_o 19_o as_o jeremie_n say_v this_o be_v my_o sorrow_n and_o i_o will_v bear_v it_o so_o thou_o must_v say_v this_o be_v my_o portion_n and_o i_o will_v take_v it_o this_o be_v the_o sign_n whether_o godliness_n be_v in_o a_o man_n if_o he_o have_v joy_n of_o that_o which_o he_o have_v for_o the_o thing_n that_o god_n give_v to_o the_o righteous_a 17_o paul_n say_v he_o give_v they_o to_o enjoy_v that_o be_v if_o he_o have_v much_o he_o can_v say_v with_o paul_n 12._o i_o have_v learned_a to_o abound_v if_o he_o have_v little_a he_o can_v say_v with_o paul_n i_o have_v learned_a to_o want_v that_o be_v if_o he_o have_v much_o as_o abraham_n &_o lot_n &_o jacob_n &_o job_n &_o joseph_n yet_o it_o can_v corrupt_v his_o mind_n but_o as_o the_o net_n be_v full_a of_o fish_n 11._o &_o yet_o do_v not_o rend_v because_o they_o cast_v it_o at_o christ_n commandment_n so_o though_o the_o godly_a be_v full_a of_o riches_n his_o hart_n be_v not_o rend_v his_o mind_n not_o trouble_v his_o countenance_n not_o change_v because_o he_o remember_v these_o thing_n be_v give_v he_o to_o do_v good_a 14._o as_o hester_n think_v of_o her_o honour_n if_o he_o have_v little_a it_o be_v like_o the_o oil_n which_o serve_v the_o widow_n as_o little_a as_o it_o be_v 7._o for_o a_o little_a to_o the_o righteous_a say_v david_n be_v better_a than_o great_a riches_n to_o the_o ungodlie_a 16._o for_o when_o a_o man_n have_v find_v the_o heavenly_a riches_n he_o care_v not_o for_o earthly_a riches_n no_o more_o than_o he_o that_o walk_v in_o the_o sun_n think_v whether_o the_o moon_n shine_v or_o no_o because_o he_o have_v no_o need_n of_o her_o light_n 6._o therefore_o we_o conclude_v with_o christ_n bless_a be_v they_o which_o thirst_n after_o righteousness_n for_o they_o shall_v be_v satisfy_v not_o they_o which_o thirst_n after_o riches_n nor_o they_o which_o thirst_v after_o honour_n nor_o they_o which_o thirst_v after_o pleasure_n they_o shall_v not_o be_v

say_v which_o be_v feast_n of_o flattery_n but_o they_o be_v all_o of_o one_o kin_n and_o one_o heart_n brethren_n and_o sister_n like_o the_o disciple_n which_o sit_v down_o together_o all_o this_o do_v show_v that_o their_o meeting_n tend_v to_o nourish_v amity_n &_o that_o they_o have_v respect_n to_o the_o continuance_n of_o their_o peace_n &_o increase_v of_o their_o love_n one_o towards_o another_o which_o be_v the_o first_o cause_n that_o feast_n be_v institute_v in_o the_o primitive_a church_n &_o therefore_o call_v the_o feast_n of_o charity_n only_o that_o friend_n and_o kinsman_n and_o neighbour_n may_v meet_v one_o with_o another_o to_o receive_v the_o blessing_n of_o god_n &_o rejoice_v together_o like_o joseph_n &_o his_o brethren_n lest_o christian_a familiarity_n shall_v wear_v out_o of_o use_n &_o be_v forget_v for_o you_o may_v see_v in_o eccles_n 2._o 24._o and_o 3._o 12._o and_o 5._o 17._o where_o solomon_n speak_v of_o the_o joy_n and_o pleasure_n and_o delight_n which_o we_o may_v take_v in_o god_n creature_n and_o again_o in_o psal_n 104._o 15._o where_o david_n say_v that_o as_o bread_n be_v make_v to_o strengthen_v so_o wine_n be_v make_v to_o comfort_v the_o heart_n that_o god_n will_v not_o only_o have_v we_o feed_v but_o of_o his_o exceed_a goodness_n he_o will_v have_v we_o cheer_v and_o comfort_v beside_o as_o he_o show_v by_o this_o abundance_n of_o his_o creature_n in_o that_o he_o have_v ordain_v so_o many_o thing_n more_o they_o we_o need_v why_o do_v god_n create_v mo_z thing_n than_o we_o need_v but_o to_o show_v that_o he_o allow_v we_o needful_a &_o comfortable_a thing_n for_o all_o good_a thing_n which_o be_v not_o create_v for_o need_n be_v create_v for_o delight_n therefore_o even_o the_o scripture_n have_v commend_v solemn_a feast_n in_o le._n 10._o num._n 29._o exo._n 23._o where_o you_o may_v read_v of_o sundry_a feast_n command_v by_o god_n himself_o as_o the_o feast_n of_o gather_a fruit_n the_o feast_n of_o trumpet_n the_o feast_n of_o tabrnacle_n the_o feast_n of_o new_a moon_n the_o feast_n of_o reconciliation_n the_o feast_n of_o dedication_n of_o the_o temple_n etc._n etc._n beside_o it_o be_v say_v that_o abraham_n make_v a_o great_a feast_n the_o same_o day_n that_o isaac_n be_v wean_v gen._n 21._o 8._o so_o it_o be_v say_v of_o samson_n that_o he_o make_v a_o feast_n when_o he_o be_v marry_v jud._n 14._o 10._o and_o at_o a_o feast_n in_o canaan_n christ_n show_v the_o first_o miracle_n that_o ever_o he_o wrought_v turn_v water_n into_o wine_n joh._n 2._o if_o feast_n have_v be_v unlawful_a christ_n will_v not_o have_v be_v there_o therefore_o the_o wiseman_n say_v there_o be_v a_o time_n to_o laugh_v as_o well_o as_o he_o say_v there_o be_v a_o time_n to_o weep_v eccl._n 3._o 4._o when_o he_o say_v there_o be_v both_o a_o time_n to_o laugh_v &_o weep_v he_o impli_v that_o the_o time_n to_o laugh_v be_v not_o every_o day_n as_o it_o be_v say_v of_o dives_fw-la that_o he_o fare_v delicious_o every_o day_n luke_n 16._o for_o then_o there_o be_v a_o time_n to_o laugh_v but_o no_o time_n to_o weep_v therefore_o if_o you_o will_v know_v the_o time_n when_o to_o laugh_v &_o when_o to_o weep_v god_n have_v set_v vriah_n for_o a_o example_n when_o the_o church_n be_v quiet_a &_o his_o country_n safe_a vriah_n can_v rejoice_v aswell_o as_o other_o but_o when_o the_o church_n be_v trouble_v &_o his_o country_n in_o danger_n though_o the_o king_n bid_v he_o go_v home_o &_o eat_v and_o drink_v &_o solace_n with_o his_o wife_n he_o will_v not_o do_v so_o but_o say_v the_o ark_n of_o israel_n and_o judah_n dwell_v in_o tent_n and_o my_o lord_n joab_n and_o the_o servant_n of_o my_o king_n abide_v in_o the_o open_a field_n and_o shall_v i_o go_v to_o my_o house_n and_o eat_v and_o drink_v and_o be_v merry_a with_o my_o wife_n by_o thy_o life_n &_o by_o the_o life_n of_o my_o soul_n i_o will_v not_o do_v this_o thing_n see_v what_o a_o sin_n he_o count_v it_o to_o feast_v then_o which_o at_o another_o time_n he_o count_v no_o sin_n therefore_o if_o you_o ask_v when_o it_o be_v time_n to_o feast_v &_o when_o to_o fast_o learn_v of_o vriah_n he_o forbid_v not_o to_o feast_v but_o if_o he_o shall_v see_v your_o feast_n now_o he_o will_v say_v as_o elisha_n say_v to_o gehezi_n be_v this_o a_o time_n to_o take_v a_o reward_n be_v this_o a_o time_n to_o
