rage_n of_o thy_o wrath_n behold_v every_o one_o that_o be_v high_a and_o abase_v he_o fretful_a jonah_n angry_a jonah_n pettish_a jonah_n foolish_a jonah_n who_o do_v thou_o provoke_v stand_v now_o to_o thy_o cause_n and_o consider_v wise_o what_o argument_n thou_o take_v in_o hand_n and_o do_v not_o darken_v counsel_n by_o word_n without_o knowledge_n which_o be_v job_n fault_n before_o thou_o

and_o first_o his_o affirmation_n yea_o say_v jonah_n he_o do_v not_o conceal_v his_o inward_a heat_n as_o if_o it_o will_v burn_v his_o heart_n out_o if_o he_o shall_v jonah_n have_v but_o little_a

tempest_n last_v the_o government_n either_o of_o himself_o or_o any_o thing_n about_o he_o and_o thus_o be_v jonah_n the_o second_o time_n lose_v in_o the_o surge_a sea_n of_o his_o own_o passion_n the_o which_o may_v teach_v we_o therefore_o to_o do_v nothing_o while_o the_o heat_n of_o the_o passion_n last_v but_o upon_o premeditate_a term_n for_o what_o when_o it_o fly_v in_o the_o face_n of_o god_n what_o will_v not_o anger_n dare_v to_o do_v occiderem_fw-la te_fw-la say_v one_o ni_fw-fr iratus_fw-la sim_fw-la i_o will_v kill_v thou_o but_o that_o i_o be_o angry_a with_o thou_o whereas_o we_o know_v not_o how_o to_o fight_v in_o other_o temper_n and_o never_o strike_v but_o in_o our_o anger_n like_o the_o emperor_n justinian_n the_o second_o who_o be_v deprive_v of_o his_o

i_o listen_v not_o to_o stand_v upon_o this_o since_o jonah_n content_v not_o himself_o with_o one_o poor_a word_n yea_o nor_o with_o a_o simple_a expression_n but_o proceed_v to_o a_o justification_n a_o deep_a aggravation_n of_o his_o anger_n according_a to_o the_o division_n before_o remember_v yet_o true_o thus_o far_o can_v i_o not_o choose_v but_o take_v notice_n that_o albeit_o this_o very_a

thou_o have_v do_v foolish_o in_o lift_v up_o thyself_o or_o if_o thou_o have_v think_v evil_a lay_v thy_o hand_n upon_o thy_o mouth_n and_o stop_v thy_o anger_n before_o it_o proceed_v too_o far_o

for_o anger_n slay_v the_o foolish_a say_v solomon_n therefore_o once_o again_o quench_v it_o while_o it_o be_v a_o spark_n which_o be_v not_o so_o easy_o do_v after_o it_o have_v get_v head_n shut_v the_o floodgate_n before_o the_o stream_n grow_v too_o violent_a and_o bear_v down_o all_o before_o it_o but_o what_o shall_v jonah_n do_v must_v he_o not_o answer_v to_o the_o lord_n question_n for_o the_o lord_n do_v ask_v he_o if_o he_o do_v well_o to_o be_v angry_a and_o since_o that_o so_o he_o be_v and_o so_o think_v as_o good_a speak_v it_o as_o dissemble_v i_o find_v the_o same_o question_n before_o in_o the_o four_o verse_n put_v unto_o jonah_n by_o the_o lord_n in_o the_o same_o manner_n yet_o i_o meet_v not_o there_o with_o any_o word_n of_o jonah_n by_o way_n of_o answer_n express_v

to_o justify_v thy_o anger_n and_o that_o not_o against_o a_o earthly_a emperor_n but_o against_o such_o a_o great_a king_n who_o cast_v out_o the_o glory_n of_o all_o earthly_a kingdom_n and_o
