impious_a zealous_o too_o and_o be_v not_o lukewarm_a christian_n for_o as_o a_o pot_n full_a of_o water_n in_o the_o heat_n of_o summer_n be_v trouble_v zealous_o and_o pollute_v with_o many_o fly_n but_o if_o the_o same_o water_n be_v boil_a upon_o the_o fire_n the_o fly_v neither_o dare_v nor_o will_v come_v near_o to_o pollute_v it_o so_o while_o our_o soul_n in_o prayer_n be_v cold_a and_o liveless_a we_o be_v perplex_v with_o vain_a and_o idle_a cogitation_n whereas_o if_o our_o mind_n be_v inflame_v with_o zeal_n it_o will_v abandon_v all_o those_o vanity_n and_o so_o rectify_v our_o prayer_n that_o we_o shall_v not_o offer_v 17_o the_o sacrifice_n of_o fool_n this_o care_n have_v not_o the_o man_n of_o israel_n in_o their_o prayer_n for_o either_o they_o call_v not_o or_o not_o upon_o god_n king_n &_o judge_n be_v their_o fuel_n they_o devour_v they_o both_o the_o high_a in_o place_n be_v the_o deep_a in_o sin_n for_o whereas_o god_n have_v take_v away_o 13._o ten_o tribe_n

especial_o the_o hos._n prophet_n hosea_n speak_v in_o this_o pprophecy_n so_o do_v amos_n too_o whereas_o isaiah_n &_o micheas_n direct_v their_o prophecy_n against_o juda_n not_o israel_n not_o one_o meddle_v with_o a_o other_o charge_n as_o though_o they_o be_v all_o rule_v by_o the_o form_n of_o their_o commission_n here_o i_o may_v just_o tax_v our_o wander_a planet_n ephraim_n wander_a
