A84337	The axe, against sin and error; and the truth conquering. A sermon on Matthew 3. 10. Now also the ax is laid to the root of the trees, therefore every tree, that bringeth not forth good fruit, is hewn down, and cast into the fire. At which, a Christian confessed, she was converted; and because it did good to her, desired it might be preached again at her funerall, that it might do good to others, ... wherein are shewed the causes of the sword upon England, and on the Lutherans, and the remedies that must be used, before the judgements cease. / Written by John Eachard, M. A. of Trin. Col. Camb. and pastor of Darsham in Suffolke. Published according to order.	Eachard, John, 17th cent.	1646 (1646)	Wing E46; Thomason E322_26; ESTC R200585	51,668	51

generation_n of_o serpent_n and_o viper_n do_v not_o bring_v forth_o nightingale_n but_o a_o serpentine_a viperous_a and_o a_o poisonable_a brood_n so_o all_o man_n that_o be_v all_o evil_a tree_n by_o generation_n can_v bring_v forth_o nothing_o but_o evil_a fruit_n a_o second_o reason_n why_o all_o man_n be_v evil_a tree_n by_o nature_n and_o treasure_n bring_v forth_o nothing_o but_o evil_a
