that_o they_o high_o displease_v god_n in_o the_o midst_n of_o their_o security_n &_o therefore_o have_v more_o cause_n to_o howl_v yea_o all_o such_o glory_n of_o they_o must_v be_v to_o their_o

we_o may_v well_o say_v with_o the_o apostle_n what_o fruit_n have_v you_o in_o those_o thing_n whereof_o you_o be_v now_o ashamed_a 6._o it_o be_v the_o part_n of_o a_o wise_a man_n to_o begin_v

and_o will_v feign_v cloak_n they_o they_o must_v go_v to_o howl_v sorrow_n and_o shame_n for_o commit_v they_o and_o it_o come_v the_o hardly_o upon_o they_o and_o be_v more_o unwelcome_a to_o they_o because_o they_o accustom_v themselves_o to_o pleasure_n and_o ease_n they_o look_v for_o no_o break_v it_o of_o nor_o for_o any_o change_n and_o what_o other_o cheer_n do_v our_o forefather_n find_v

therefore_o i_o pray_v thou_o pardon_v my_o sin_n and_o turn_v again_o with_o i_o that_o i_o may_v worship_v the_o lord_n two_o of_o the_o four_o thing_n have_v be_v speak_v of_o the_o three_o follow_v therefore_o to_o pass_v to_o the_o three_o of_o the_o four_o point_n touch_v saul_n confession_n whether_o he_o also_o repent_v as_o the_o disciple_n say_v of_o lazarus_n to_o jesus_n lord_n if_o he_o sleep_v he_o shall_v do_v well_o so_o say_v some_o of_o saul_n if_o he_o be_v come_v to_o confess_v his_o sin_n he_o shall_v do_v well_o consider_v how_o far_o of_o he_o be_v from_o it_o and_o how_o hardly_o he_o be_v bring_v to_o it_o answer_n to_o who_o i_o answer_v alas_o that_o action_n be_v violent_a and_o wring_v from_o he_o for_o the_o loss_n of_o his_o kingdom_n as_o may_v be_v think_v it_o be_v not_o free_a and_o unfeigned_a no_o more_o than_o judass_n confession_n 〈◊〉_d nor_o he_o constant_a in_o it_o and_o therefore_o it_o be_v far_o from_o be_v a_o fruit_n of_o repentance_n but_o see_v the_o cause_n must_v first_o be_v reason_v of_o before_o it_o be_v conclude_v i_o will_v first_o say_v on_o both_o side_n somewhat_o i_o mean_v what_o likelihood_n of_o repentance_n be_v in_o saul_n and_o on_o the_o other_o side_n what_o may_v be_v bring_v forth_o and_o say_v against_o it_o whereupon_o the_o truth_n will_v soon_o appear_v that_o which_o may_v most_o probable_o be_v say_v for_o it_o that_o i_o can_v see_v or_o find_v be_v this_o first_o that_o this_o confession_n of_o sin_n be_v not_o only_o in_o general_n but_o also_o particular_a and_o of_o that_o very_a sin_n with_o which_o he_o be_v charge_v and_o which_o he_o have_v before_o deny_v for_o if_o it_o have_v be_v but_o general_a it_o may_v have_v seem_v to_o be_v less_o regard_v and_o as_o he_o do_v it_o particular_o so_o it_o be_v that_o wherein_o he_o have_v most_o offend_v second_o this_o may_v be_v say_v for_o some_o likelihood_n of_o his_o repentance_n that_o he_o do_v after_o this_o call_v samuel_n to_o go_v with_o he_o to_o worship_n god_n and_o desire_v he_o to_o pray_v for_o he_o but_o these_o be_v very_o weak_a proof_n as_o shall_v easy_o appear_v by_o they_o that_o shall_v be_v bring_v on_o the_o contrary_a and_o by_o that_o which_o shall_v further_o be_v say_v of_o they_o for_o concern_v his_o confession_n it_o be_v no_o better_a than_o judass_n 4._o which_o be_v also_o of_o a_o particular_a sin_n and_o that_o which_o most_o concern_v he_o as_o may_v be_v see_v by_o his_o word_n when_o he_o say_v i_o have_v sin_v in_o betray_v the_o innocent_a blood_n and_o it_o be_v nothing_o like_o david_n in_o soundness_n who_o yet_o do_v confess_v but_o general_o say_v i_o have_v sin_v indeed_o for_o the_o outward_a manner_n of_o saul_n confession_n lay_v forth_o in_o word_n 1●_n there_o can_v no_o ecception_n be_v make_v against_o it_o and_o i_o grant_v that_o there_o be_v no_o more_o to_o be_v see_v in_o the_o confession_n of_o the_o people_n of_o israel_n 12._o whereby_o they_o testify_v their_o true_a repentance_n but_o we_o must_v know_v that_o repentance_n be_v never_o in_o the_o scripture_n neither_o aught_o of_o we_o to_o be_v measure_v by_o the_o outward_a confession_n only_o but_o by_o the_o uprightnes_n of_o heart_n lament_v after_o god_n who_o have_v be_v so_o sore_o provoke_v and_o by_o the_o unfeigned_a faith_n of_o the_o party_n and_o by_o the_o renounce_n and_o forsake_v of_o sin_n these_o grace_n must_v be_v find_v to_o accompany_v confession_n note_n so_o that_o it_o may_v be_v sound_a and_o good_a and_o without_o they_o it_o be_v nothing_o worth_a and_o saul_n be_v void_a of_o these_o be_v in_o no_o wise_a to_o be_v take_v for_o a_o true_a note_n of_o repentance_n and_o that_o these_o must_v go_v with_o confession_n be_v to_o be_v see_v in_o many_o place_n of_o scripture_n for_o david_n confession_n that_o it_o come_v both_o from_o faith_n and_o
