fox_n upon_o you_o which_o day_n as_o they_o hope_v for_o so_o if_o it_o shall_v come_v which_o yet_o god_n forbid_v as_o he_o have_v forbid_v these_o many_o year_n of_o his_o goodness_n &_o infinite_a mercy_n yet_o than_o you_o will_v wish_v though_o too_o late_o you_o have_v take_v the_o fox_n it_o be_v best_o therefore_o for_o all_o magistrate_n to_o be_v wise_a in_o time_n lest_o peril_n bring_v repentance_n when_o it_o will_v be_v too_o late_o and_o therefore_o diligent_o to_o inquire_v for_o fox_n namely_o for_o papist_n &_o to_o let_v they_o have_v neither_o liberty_n nor_o life_n where_o the_o vine_n of_o christ_n may_v stand_v in_o danger_n of_o waste_v by_o they_o for_o that_o be_v the_o cause_n why_o this_o precept_n be_v give_v oh_o but_o there_o be_v small_a love_n in_o your_o lip_n will_v catholic_n say_v nothing_o but_o cruelty_n in_o your_o mouth_n will_v other_o say_v to_o who_o i_o answer_v that_o so_o shall_v object_v &_o that_o out_o of_o my_o last_o part_n that_o there_o be_v small_a charity_n in_o they_o whosoever_o they_o be_v that_o will_v have_v the_o fox_n spare_v where_o there_o be_v danger_n lest_o the_o vine_n by_o the_o fox_n be_v waste_v for_o they_o that_o have_v no_o love_n to_o the_o vine_n may_v pity_v the_o fox_n &_o in_o very_a deed_n there_o be_v none_o that_o wish_v the_o freedom_n of_o the_o fox_n but_o he_o that_o wish_v danger_n to_o the_o vine_n but_o herein_o i_o need_v not_o to_o answer_v much_o i_o appeal_v to_o you_o all_o whether_o ever_o the_o vine_n of_o christ_n be_v in_o great_a peril_n of_o waste_v than_o now_o it_o be_v &_o why_o but_o because_o the_o fox_n have_v be_v too_o long_o suffer_v &_o have_v not_o by_o mercy_n &_o patience_n be_v win_v but_o wax_v worse_o as_o experience_n &_o too_o too_o late_o have_v make_v lamentable_a trial_n whereas_o if_o the_o fox_n have_v be_v take_v in_o time_n his_o might_n &_o malice_n have_v quite_o be_v cut_v off_o and_o the_o vine_n of_o christ_n have_v be_v in_o better_a safety_n but_o for_o this_o only_a thus_o i_o say_v you_o know_v and_o see_v all_o what_o mischief_n have_v come_v to_o the_o world_n what_o danger_n to_o the_o vine_n because_o the_o fox_n have_v not_o be_v take_v from_o time_n to_o time_n and_o therefore_o hereafter_o for_o the_o lord_n cause_n delay_v you_o no_o time_n but_o see_v that_o you_o take_v they_o let_v the_o vine_n of_o christ_n be_v dear_a unto_o you_o and_o spare_v not_o the_o fox_n lest_o you_o lose_v the_o vine_n oh_o spare_v we_o not_o papist_n for_o what_o be_v they_o but_o fox_n for_o this_o be_v the_o charity_n that_o this_o my_o text_n crave_v of_o you_o this_o be_v the_o charity_n that_o you_o owe_v to_o the_o vine_n and_o if_o any_o spare_v the_o fox_n to_o the_o danger_n of_o the_o vine_n that_o be_v no_o charity_n but_o cruelty_n and_o justice_n will_v be_v sharp_a to_o punish_v it_o in_o the_o day_n of_o judgement_n when_o all_o man_n shall_v have_v no_o judge_n but_o god_n who_o be_v charity_n who_o will_v be_v sure_a to_o smite_v home_o if_o the_o fox_n be_v not_o catch_v that_o go_v about_o to_o waste_v his_o vine_n but_o suffer_v to_o work_v his_o spite_n upon_o the_o vine_n and_o sure_o since_o our_o adversary_n be_v so_o eager_a to_o choke_v the_o wheat_n of_o god_n that_o they_o the_o tare_n to_o hew_v down_o his_o green_a tree_n that_o they_o the_o dry_a

the_o god_n of_o this_o world_n may_v rule_v &_o reign_v once_o again_o with_o their_o bell_n of_o rome_n in_o the_o church_n of_o christ_n and_o bring_v in_o steed_n of_o knowledge_n ignorance_n in_o

your_o comfortable_a condition_n in_o christ_n our_o bless_a saviour_n as_o of_o all_o other_o so_o among_o all_o and_o above_o all_o of_o you_o right_a worshipful_a and_o other_o of_o your_o call_n

save_v it_o you_o will_v perhaps_o say_v i_o have_v answer_v and_o add_v permit_v they_o not_o free_a take_v care_n to_o inquire_v and_o catch_v and_o when_o they_o be_v take_v take_v care_n to_o

and_o if_o you_o shall_v use_v it_o as_o duty_n in_o these_o our_o dangerous_a day_n do_v earnest_o beg_v it_o the_o fox_n i_o grant_v may_v curse_v you_o but_o the_o vine_n of_o christ_n shall_v have_v cause_n to_o bless_v you_o for_o it_o all_o which_o i_o do_v not_o say_v or_o urge_v right_a worshipful_a so_o much_o to_o charge_v you_o with_o a_o duty_n unknowen_a as_o charitable_o to_o

among_o man_n and_o for_o man_n to_o be_v god_n that_o you_o ought_v therefore_o to_o be_v light_n enemy_n to_o darkness_n and_o all_o the_o servant_n of_o sathan_n the_o god_n of_o darkness_n in_o a_o word_n friend_n to_o the_o vine_n but_o foe_n to_o the_o fox_n foe_n then_o to_o our_o vine_n foe_n foe_n to_o papist_n for_o what_o be_v they_o but_o fox_n nay_o i_o hope_v that_o you_o have_v

and_o bowel_n of_o his_o mercy_n that_o this_o your_o godly_a care_n may_v increase_v for_o the_o vine_n of_o christ_n do_v crave_v it_o and_o if_o you_o remember_v never_o so_o little_a these_o our_o

the_o word_n not_o of_o any_o less_o man_n than_o of_o solomon_n in_o the_o person_n of_o christ_n the_o true_a solomon_n who_o have_v choose_v to_o himself_o of_o all_o woman_n but_o one_o virgin_n of_o all_o bird_n but_o one_o dove_n of_o all_o dove_n but_o one_o turtle_n of_o all_o tree_n but_o the_o vine_n &_o that_o be_v his_o church_n whereof_o he_o have_v such_o a_o especial_a care_n that_o as_o he_o have_v charge_v all_o man_n so_o among_o &_o above_o all_o other_o such_o as_o be_v of_o your_o high_a calling_n to_o be_v protector_n of_o the_o same_o to_o catch_v the_o fox_n and_o

who_o give_v his_o life_n for_o his_o church_n his_o vine_n christ_n who_o shall_v judge_v all_o so_o that_o if_o either_o love_n to_o his_o church_n or_o fear_n of_o judgement_n may_v prevail_v you_o be_v bind_v to_o do_v to_o your_o best_a in_o this_o behalf_n oh_o but_o some_o will_v say_v it_o be_v wisdom_n for_o you_o to_o speak_v somewhat_o for_o the_o fox_n or_o else_o the_o time_n may_v come_v when_o the_o fox_n will_v

requite_v your_o favour_n whereunto_o i_o answer_v that_o indeed_o flesh_n and_o blood_n take_v it_o to_o be_v the_o best_a course_n to_o spare_v or_o at_o least_o in_o some_o sort_n to_o speak_v for_o the_o fox_n but_o wisdom_n command_v and_o charity_n crave_v that_o neither_o minister_n do_v speak_v for_o nor_o magistrate_n spare_v the_o fox_n and_o therefore_o christ_n here_o require_v in_o the_o behalf_n of_o his_o vine_n that_o we_o spare_v not_o to_o hunt_v and_o take_v the_o fox_n wheresoever_o whosoever_o he_o be_v that_o go_v about_o to_o waste_v the_o vine_n and_o as_o for_o that_o day_n which_o many_o man_n fear_v indeed_o the_o fox_n of_o rome_n hope_n to_o work_v it_o but_o i_o hope_v we_o shall_v never_o see_v it_o and_o yet_o if_o we_o do_v our_o sin_n have_v deserve_v it_o and_o i_o will_v pity_v the_o man_n most_o for_o his_o pitiful_a case_n that_o have_v spare_v the_o fox_n and_o all_o to_o find_v pity_n for_o no_o doubt_n he_o that_o pity_v the_o fox_n that_o pity_v not_o but_o labour_v to_o waste_v the_o vine_n shall_v find_v either_o in_o that_o day_n the_o fox_n pitile_v and_o if_o he_o do_v just_o or_o if_o not_o yet_o one_o day_n a_o god_n that_o will_v be_v sure_a to_o punish_v the_o fox_n friend_n and_o his_o vine_n foe_n and_o therefore_o as_o for_o those_o politics_n whosoever_o that_o spare_v to_o catch_v the_o fox_n that_o the_o fox_n may_v spare_v to_o catch_v they_o in_o his_o day_n when_o he_o come_v to_o waste_v the_o vine_n that_o their_o policy_n be_v intolerable_a injury_n to_o the_o vine_n &_o cruel_a deal_n towards_o their_o own_o soul_n as_o without_o hearty_a repentance_n they_o shall_v find_v and_o feel_v to_o their_o utter_a smart_n when_o the_o master_n of_o the_o vineyard_n shall_v come_v to_o catch_v and_o to_o bind_v for_o ever_o all_o fox_n all_o fox_n friend_n &_o foe_n to_o the_o vine_n in_o a_o word_n this_o their_o policy_n what_o be_v it_o but_o folly_n to_o be_v pity_v to_o spare_v the_o wave_n where_o the_o ship_n the_o brier_n where_o the_o flower_n the_o wolf_n where_o the_o sheep_n the_o fox_n where_o the_o vine_n of_o christ_n be_v in_o danger_n nay_o to_o endanger_v all_o &_o that_o to_o the_o utmost_a that_o when_o the_o ship_n be_v drown_v yet_o the_o wave_n when_o the_o flower_n be_v fade_v than_o the_o brier_n when_o the_o sheep_n be_v devour_v than_o the_o wolf_n when_o the_o vine_n be_v waste_v yet_o the_o fox_n a_o profess_a foe_n may_v prove_v a_o friend_n but_o oh_o politic_a or_o rather_o fool_n or_o rather_o foe_n to_o thyself_o whosoever_o thou_o be_v o_o pitiless_a policy_n may_v the_o vine_n say_v the_o very_a next_o way_n to_o bring_v i_o to_o the_o waist_n thyself_o to_o the_o pray_v last_o to_o draw_v to_o a_o end_n perhaps_o it_o will_v be_v yet_o object_v that_o the_o fox_n be_v many_o mighty_a and_o malicious_a and_o therefore_o it_o will_v be_v hard_a and_o dangerous_a to_o catch_v the_o fox_n that_o be_v in_o the_o land_n whereunto_o i_o answer_v that_o indeed_o so_o it_o be_v and_o a_o misery_n it_o be_v to_o consider_v that_o the_o fox_n be_v so_o great_a so_o mighty_a and_o full_a of_o malice_n our_o father_n have_v have_v
