strange_a that_o a_o wild_a wilderness_n a_o wilderness_n untilled_a unplanted_a uninhabited_a shall_v yield_v they_o food_n i_o answer_v first_o the_o scripture_n speak_v of_o many_o wildeerness_n

many_o get_v their_o live_n there_o where_o none_o live_v and_o where_o nothing_o be_v to_o be_v have_v of_o the_o growth_n of_o the_o place_n to_o live_v upon_o outrage_n and_o robberye_n be_v usual_o commit_v in_o such_o place_n and_o therefore_o in_o the_o prophecy_n of_o that_o great_a peace_n which_o christ_n shall_v give_v to_o his_o church_n psal_n 72.3_o it_o be_v say_v the_o mountain_n shall_v bring_v peace_n to_o the_o people_n and_o the_o little_a hill_n by_o righteousness_n he_o name_v the_o mountain_n and_o the_o hill_n above_o other_o place_n because_o in_o or_o upon_o they_o violence_n be_v often_o exercise_v and_o to_o say_v the_o mountain_n shall_v bring_v peace_n be_v much_o more_o than_o to_o say_v the_o valley_n and_o the_o city_n shall_v bring_v peace_n when_o there_o be_v peace_n and_o safety_n upon_o hill_n and_o mountain_n we_o may_v presume_v that_o there_o be_v peace_n every_o where_n therefore_o as_o when_o god_n promise_v isa_n 60.17_o that_o in_o the_o latter_a day_n he_o will_v make_v the_o officer_n among_o his_o people_n peace_n and_o their_o exactor_n righteousness_n he_o mean_v that_o he_o will_v make_v all_o sort_n of_o man_n peaceful_a and_o righteous_a because_o he_o will_v make_v they_o such_o who_o be_v usual_o most_o troublesome_a and_o unrighteous_a officer_n and_o exactor_n so_o when_o he_o say_v the_o mountain_n shall_v bring_v peace_n the_o meaning_n be_v every_o place_n shall_v or_o that_o the_o peace_n shall_v be_v universal_a in_o all_o place_n because_o mountain_n and_o wilderness_n be_v the_o place_n where_o robber_n and_o spoiler_n take_v their_o prey_n and_o get_v their_o subsistence_n and_o hence_o it_o may_v well_o be_v answer_v why_o job_n say_v that_o the_o wilderness_n yield_v they_o food_n even_o because_o that_o place_n be_v fit_a for_o they_o so_o rob_v and_o spoil_v in_o who_o make_v the_o spoil_n of_o other_o their_o daily_a food_n thus_o the_o wilderness_n yield_v food_n for_o they_o and_o for_o their_o child_n the_o word_n signify_v any_o that_o be_v young_a and_o be_v take_v as_o well_o for_o servant_n as_o for_o child_n 1_o sam._n 21.5_o the_o vessel_n of_o the_o young_a
