honour_n and_o dishonour_v do_v chance_n or_o fortune_n as_o they_o call_v it_o dispose_v they_o it_o will_v be_v a_o blind_a disposal_n indeed_o we_o than_o shall_v see_v that_o do_v every_o day_n of_o chance_n which_o jacob_n once_o do_v purposely_o and_o of_o choice_n the_o right_a hand_n put_v upon_o the_o young_a the_o left_a hand_n on_o the_o elder_a we_o 7._o gen._n 48._o 14._o eccl_n

to_o dishonour_n god_n 2._o how_o it_o can_v with_o satisfaction_n be_v make_v appear_v to_o all_o of_o we_o that_o according_o as_o any_o do_v honour_n or_o dishonour_n god_n according_o they_o shall_v be_v honour_v or_o disesteem_v by_o he_o in_o answer_n to_o the_o former_a to_o honour_n god_n according_o to_o the_o notation_n of_o the_o word_n mention_v before_o can_v be_v nothing_o

in_o this_o case_n be_v no_o more_o than_o what_o the_o prophet_n say_v themselves_o be_v when_o put_v in_o counterpoise_v with_o god_n who_o be_v but_o as_o the_o small_a dust_n of_o the_o balance_n

that_o worth_n and_o excellency_n which_o be_v in_o he_o before_o and_o therefore_o if_o the_o scripture_n be_v consult_v we_o shall_v find_v that_o to_o conceive_v weighty_a thought_n of_o god_n
