A40078	A discourse of the great disingenuity & unreasonableness of repining at afflicting providences and of the influence which they ought to have upon us, on Job 2, 10, publish'd upon occasion of the death of our gracious sovereign Queen Mary of most blessed memory : with a preface containing some observations, touching her excellent endowments, and exemplary life.	Fowler, Edward, 1632-1714.	1695 (1695)	Wing F1703; ESTC R7038	47,822	152

he_o have_v afflict_a we_o and_o the_o year_n wherein_o we_o have_v see_v evil_a some_o unthought_a of_o calamity_n may_v sudden_o seize_v we_o as_o we_o have_v again_o and_o again_o find_v by_o

advantage_n as_o the_o matter_n there_o of_o be_v thing_n present_a and_o the_o matter_n of_o the_o other_o thing_n to_o come_v but_o consider_v all_o the_o other_o difference_n between_o these_o

no_o comparison_n to_o be_v make_v between_o this_o and_o that_o motive_n it_o be_v impossible_a that_o he_o shall_v think_v god_n a_o severe_a master_n let_v he_o meet_v with_o never_o so_o many_o evil_a thing_n in_o this_o world_n who_o have_v a_o sure_a and_o certain_a hope_n of_o ere_o long_o receive_v such_o good_a thing_n as_o pass_v all_o understanding_n as_o the_o eye_n of_o man_n never_o see_v nor_o his_o ear_n ever_o hear_v nor_o his_o heart_n be_v able_a to_o conceive_v any_o like_a unto_o they_o it_o must_v needs_o make_v this_o vale_n of_o tear_n not_o only_o a_o tolerable_a but_o a_o pleasant_a place_n to_o consider_v that_o at_o the_o end_n thereof_o be_v the_o mount_n of_o joy_n of_o joy_n unspeakable_a and_o full_a of_o glory_n and_o that_o these_o

and_o eternal_a weight_n of_o glory_n five_o i_o infer_v how_o unreasonable_a it_o be_v to_o have_v the_o low_a and_o more_o undervalue_a thought_n of_o the_o divine_a goodness_n and_o beneficence_n and_o the_o less_o sense_n of_o our_o obligation_n to_o god_n in_o regard_n of_o the_o evil_n wherewith_o our_o good_a thing_n be_v mix_v and_o our_o earthly_a comfort_n be_v allay_v the_o great_a unreasonableness_n hereof_o will_v appear_v by_o the_o follow_a consideration_n over_o and_o above_o those_o we_o have_v be_v present_v with_o from_o the_o word_n of_o the_o text._n i._o very_o many_o
