together_o in_o the_o person_n of_o his_o only_a son_n even_o we_o that_o have_v so_o tear_v a_o sunder_o the_o thing_n that_o he_o have_v set_v in_o so_o goodly_a order_n and_o for_o the_o same_o cause_n s._n paul_n speak_v here_o not_o only_o of_o man_n which_o be_v estrange_v from_o god_n afore_o by_o reason_n of_o sin_n but_o also_o of_o all_o thing_n that_o be_v in_o heaven_n and_o earth_n 20._o wherein_o he_o comprehend_v even_o the_o very_a angel_n for_o although_o god_n glory_n shine_v forth_o in_o they_o and_o that_o they_o be_v never_o yet_o separate_v from_o he_o yet_o nevertheless_o it_o stand_v they_o on_o hand_n too_o be●_z gather_v together_o by_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n and_o that_o after_o two_o sort_n for_o albeit_o that_o they_o never_o swerve_v aside_o ne_o fall_v from_o that_o they_o be_v at_o the_o first_o and_o that_o god_n righteousness_n do_v always_o show_v itself_o in_o they_o insomuch_o that_o they_o be_v as_o it_o be_v mirror_n and_o pattern_n of_o it_o yet_o notwithstanding_o if_o god_n li●ted_v too_o look_v upon_o they_o with_o rigour_n they_o shall_v find_v themselves_o far_o short_a of_o the_o perfection_n of_o righteousness_n that_o be_v in_o he_o as_o it_o be_v say_v in_o the_o book_n of_o job._n 28_o furthermore_o there_o be_v yet_o one_o other_o reason_n too_o be_v match_v with_o this_o which_o be_v that_o the_o angel_n shall_v not_o have_v such_o constancy_n and_o steadiness_n as_o be_v requisite_n unless_o jesus_n christ_n have_v so_o establish_v they_o as_o they_o may_v never_o fall_v thus_o you_o see_v one_o way_n how_o they_o be_v gather_v together_o but_o this_o gather_v whereof_o s._n paul_n speak_v here_o be_v in_o respect_n of_o their_o unite_n again_o unto_o we_o for_o we_o know_v that_o inasmuch_o as_o we_o be_v banish_v out_o of_o god_n kingdom_n we_o be_v cut_v of_o from_o all_o hope_n of_o salvation_n so_o as_o the_o angel_n be_v by_o and_o by_o fain_a too_o become_v our_o enemy_n and_o shall_v be_v so_o still_o be_v it_o not_o for_o the_o atonement_n which_o we_o have_v with_o they_o again_o by_o mean_n of_o the_o head_n which_o be_v common_a too_o we_o both_o and_o here_o you_o see_v also_o why_o that_o in_o the_o ladder_n that_o be_v show_v unto_o jacob_n 12._o it_o be_v say_v that_o god_n stand_v upon_o the_o top_n of_o it_o and_o touch_v both_o heaven_n and_o earth_n and_o that_o the_o angel_n go_v up_o and_o down_o on_o it_o now_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n be_v the_o true_a live_n and_o everlasting_a god_n which_o touch_v both_o heaven_n ▪_o and_o earth_n because_o that_o in_o his_o person_n god_n have_v knit_v his_o own_o divine_a be_v or_o substance_n and_o the_o nature_n of_o man_n together_o thus_o therefore_o you_o see_v that_o heaven_n be_v open_a so_o as_o the_o angel_n begin_v too_o acquaint_v themselves_o with_o we_o 14._o yea_o and_o too_o become_v our_o servant_n as_o be_v say_v in_o the_o epistle_n too_o the_o hebrew_n because_o the_o care_n of_o our_o soul_n be_v commit_v unto_o they_o and_o they_o as_o be_v say_v in_o the_o thirty_o and_o four_o psalm_n incamp_v about_o we_o 8._o and_o watch_v we_o and_o be_v our_o keeper_n you_o see_v then_o how_o we_o be_v unite_v again_o too_o the_o angel_n of_o heaven_n by_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ._n 27._o and_o that_o be_v the_o cause_n also_o why_o he_o say_v from_o hensfoorth_o you_o shall_v see_v the_o heaven_n open_a and_o the_o son_n of_o man_n come_v down_o in_o his_o majesty_n with_o his_o angel_n whereby_o he_o do_v we_o too_o wit_n that_o heaven_n be_v shut_v against_o we_o and_o that_o we_o also_o be_v unworthy_a too_o find_v any_o favour_n at_o god_n hand_n &_o that_o yet_o notwithstanding_o now_o that_o he_o be_v come_v too_o be_v our_o head_n and_o have_v make_v the_o atonement_n between_o his_o father_n and_o we_o 10._o and_o take_v upon_o he_o the_o office_n of_o mediator_n &_o be_v become_v the_o head_n not_o only_o of_o the_o faithful_a but_o also_o of_o the_o angel_n he_o have_v gather_v all_o together_o again_o in_o such_o wise_n that_o whereas_o the_o devil_n make_v war_n against_o we_o and_o practice_v our_o destruction_n without_o cease_v the_o angel_n be_v arm_v with_o infinite_a power_n too_o maintain_v we_o and_o although_o we_o see_v they_o not_o with_o our_o eye_n yet_o must_v we_o certain_o believe_v that_o they_o watch_v for_o our_o welfare_n otherwise_o what_o a_o thing_n be_v it_o for_o we_o know_v that_o the_o devil_n be_v as_o a_o roar_a lion_n 8._o and_o seek_v nothing_o else_o but_o too_o devour_v we_o we_o see_v what_o a_o number_n of_o ●●yghts_n he_o have_v too_o wind_n about_o we_o with_o needs_o then_o must_v the_o angel_n have_v a_o infinite_a power_n too_o defend_v we_o withal_o also_o it_o must_v needs_o be_v that_o we_o be_v preserve_v under_o the_o protection_n of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n who_o be_v both_o their_o head_n and_o we_o too_o thus_o you_o see_v brief_o that_o the_o thing_n which_o s._n paul_n mean_v too_o tell_v we_o in_o this_o text_n where_o he_o say_v that_o we_o be_v gather_v together_o again_o be_v that_o we_o be_v scatter_v asunder_o before_o &_o that_o we_o be_v not_o only_o reconcile_v to_o god_n by_o the_o death_n and_o passion_n of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n but_o also_o now_o henceforth_o knit_v again_o unto_o the_o angel_n so_o as_o they_o be_v become_v our_o brethren_n and_o fellow_n and_o god_n have_v give_v they_o charge_n too_o guide_n and_o maintain_v we_o in_o all_o our_o way_n and_o to_o watch_v over_o we_o 〈◊〉_d and_o to_o be_v in_o continual_a battle_n for_o the_o withstand_v of_o all_o the_o enemy_n that_o make_v war_n against_o we_o till_o we_o be_v gather_v all_o together_o into_o the_o rest_n of_o heaven_n now_o let_v we_o cast_v ourselves_o down_o before_o the_o majesty_n of_o our_o good_a god_n with_o acknowledgement_n of_o our_o fault_n pray_v he_o too_o make_v we_o so_o too_o feel_v they_o as_o it_o may_v draw_v we_o too_o true_a repentance_n and_o make_v we_o to_o continue_v the_o same_o all_o the_o time_n of_o our_o life_n and_o that_o yet_o notwithstanding_o we_o may_v not_o cease_v too_o trust_v in_o he_o and_o too_o offer_v ourselves_o bold_o in_o his_o sight_n forasmuch_o as_o our_o sin_n be_v scour_v out_o by_o the_o blood_n that_o be_v shed_v for_o the_o wash_n of_o they_o and_o that_o we_o may_v so_o frame_v ourselves_o too_o this_o doctrine_n as_o we_o may_v all_o the_o time_n of_o our_o life_n acknowledge_v that_o sing_v he_o have_v purchase_v we_o so_o dear_o we_o ought_v too_o give_v ourselves_o whole_o too_o his_o service_n and_o that_o sing_v he_o have_v show_v himself_o so_o good_a a_o redeemer_n towards_o we_o we_o may_v not_o doubt_v but_o he_o will_v continue_v his_o goodness_n from_o day_n too_o day_n too_o the_o full_a finish_n of_o the_o thing_n that_o he_o have_v begin_v and_o strengthen_v we_o in_o all_o assault_n till_o he_o

the_o happy_a blessedness_n whereunto_o he_o call_v we_o that_o it_o may_v please_v he_o too_o grant_v this_o grace_n not_o only_o too_o we_o but_o also_o too_o all_o people_n and_o nation_n etc_n etc_n the_o five_o sermon_n upon_o the_o first_o chapter_n 13._o you_o also_o do_v trust_n in_o christ_n upon_o the_o hear_n of_o the_o word_n of_o truth_n that_o be_v too_o say_v of_o the_o glad_a

unto_o the_o redeem_n of_o the_o purchase_v possession_n too_o the_o praise_n of_o his_o glory_n we_o have_v see_v heretofore_o how_o s._n paul_n have_v declare_v that_o there_o be_v none_o other_o ground_n of_o our_o salvation_n than_o god_n free_a goodness_n and_o that_o we_o must_v not_o seek_v any_o where_o else_o for_o the_o cause_n why_o he_o choose_v the_o one_o and_o forsake_v the_o other_o for_o it_o become_v we_o too_o hold_v ourselves_o content_v with_o his_o only_a will_n purpose_n &_o unchangeable_a determination_n and_o whosoever_o go_v any_o further_a must_v needs_o stumble_v into_o such_o a_o dimgeon_n through_o his_o own_o rashness_n as_o he_o shall_v feel_v that_o such_o as_o can_v honour_v god_n majesty_n and_o everlasting_a ordinance_n with_o all_o lowliness_n and_o reverence_n must_v every_o one_o of_o they_o say_v i_o come_v too_o shame_v therefore_o whensoever_o we_o come_v to_o the_o search_v of_o the_o cause_n of_o our_o salvation_n let_v
we_o learn_v too_o father_n it_o altogether_o upon_o god_n it_o be_v true_a that_o too_o be_v god_n child_n and_o heir_n it_o behove_v we_o too_o be_v of_o the_o body_n of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n which_o thing_n be_v do_v by_o faith_n but_o yet_o can_v we_o not_o believe_v the_o gospel_n except_o god_n draw_v we_o thereto_o by_o his_o holy_a spirit_n now_o we_o see_v that_o he_o deal_v not_o alike_o with_o all_o man_n for_o he_o can_v very_o well_o inlyghten_v all_o the_o world_n and_o bring_v too_o pass_v that_o there_o shall_v be_v no_o unbeliever_n at_o all_o but_o we_o see_v the_o contrary_n therefore_o let_v we_o assure_v ourselves_o that_o be_v choose_v who_o he_o list_v for_o if_o a_o man_n shall_v ask_v the_o reason_n why_o he_o do_v it_o it_o be_v too_o lofty_a a_o presumptuousness_n and_o that_o be_v the_o very_a cause_n that_o make_v so_o many_o overween_a folk_n too_o break_v their_o own_o neck_n for_o that_o they_o can_v find_v in_o their_o heart_n too_o grant_v that_o god_n govern_v man_n according_a too_o his_o own_o will_n as_o of_o good_a right_a he_o may_v full_o well_o furthermore_o also_o s._n paul_n have_v heretofore_o set_v the_o jew_n and_o gentile_n both_o on_o one_o even_o ground_n and_o that_o be_v a_o thing_n that_o require_v yet_o long_o discourse_n for_o sing_v that_o god_n have_v choose_v abraham_n offspring_n it_o may_v have_v be_v think_v that_o there_o have_v be_v some_o worthiness_n in_o they_o sure_o if_o we_o have_v a_o eye_n too_o the_o special_a favour_n that_o god_n show_v too_o the_o jew_n they_o be_v well_o worthy_a too_o be_v prefer_v before_o all_o the_o rest_n of_o the_o world_n but_o if_o a_o man_n take_v they_o as_o they_o be_v of_o themselves_o he_o shall_v find_v they_o void_a of_o all_o righteousness_n for_o we_o must_v always_o come_v back_o too_o this_o point_n that_o god_n be_v not_o bind_v nor_o behold_v too_o any_o man_n at_o all_o and_o his_o receive_n of_o the_o jew_n by_o free_a adoption_n be_v not_o for_o that_o they_o be_v better_a worth_n than_o other_o man_n or_o for_o that_o they_o may_v make_v any_o manner_n of_o vaunt_n at_o all_o of_o themselves_o therefore_o you_o see_v why_o s._n paul_n say_v express_o that_o they_o which_o believe_v in_o jesus_n christ_n in_o time_n past_a be_v comprehend_v under_o god_n election_n as_o well_o as_o the_o other_o &_o that_o the_o other_o can_v boast_v themselves_o too_o be_v more_o worthy_a or_o too_o have_v deserve_v more_o than_o they_o but_o that_o all_o must_v come_v too_o this_o point_n that_o as_o well_o of_o the_o jew_n as_o of_o the_o gentile_n god_n choze_n who_o he_o like_v and_o list_v too_o the_o end_n that_o nothing_o shall_v be_v consider_v in_o that_o behalf_n but_o his_o only_a mercy_n and_o that_o all_o mouth_n may_v be_v stop_v and_o no_o man_n be_v able_a too_o allege_v that_o be_v bring_v any_o thing_n of_o his_o own_o howbeit_o when_o s._n paul_n enter_v into_o this_o comparison_n between_o the_o jew_n and_o the_o gentile_n he_o say_v that_o if_o a_o man_n have_v a_o eye_n too_o god_n accept_v of_o the_o jew_n for_o his_o own_o peculiar_a heritage_n they_o be_v a_o holy_a lineage_n and_o he_o have_v give_v they_o his_o law_n and_o promise_n by_o mean_n whereof_o they_o be_v in_o more_o excellent_a and_o high_a degree_n than_o all_o the_o residue_n who_o he_o have_v forsake_v and_o shake_v of_o but_o if_o we_o have_v a_o eye_n unto_o god_n all_o man_n glory_n must_v needs_o be_v lay_v awater_o but_o s._n paul_n in_o that_o place_n speak_v alone_o of_o the_o forgive_n of_o our_o sin_n and_o of_o our_o embrace_n of_o god_n grace_n by_o faith_n which_o thing_n he_o show_v can_v be_v father_v upon_o any_o other_o cause_n than_o only_a god_n pity_v of_o we_o also_o we_o have_v ●eene_v heretofore_o in_o the_o epistle_n too_o the_o galatian_n 15._o how_o s._n paul_n ●ayd_v unto_o peter_n we_o be_v jew_n by_o nature_n for_o inasmuch_o as_o it_o be_v a_o common_a opinion_n that_o the_o jew_n be_v a_o holy_a lineage_n because_o they_o be_v descend_v of_o abraham_n race_n very_o well_o say_v he_o howsoever_o ●he_z case_n stand_v we_o have_v none_o other_o refuge_n nor_o assurance_n of_o salvation_n but_o too_o believe_v in_o jesus_n christ_n for_o he_o wist_v well_o that_o man_n be_v utter_o fordo_v and_o lose_v in_o themselves_o because_o they_o bring_v nothing_o with_o they_o but_o god_n wrath_n and_o curse_n therefore_o like_v as_o in_o those_o text_n s._n paul_n have_v show_v that_o man_n beguile_v themselves_o if_o they_o imagine_v that_o they_o have_v any_o desert_n or_o worthiness_n in_o they_o so_o now_o for_o the_o better_a confirmation_n of_o the_o same_o doctrine_n and_o too_o take_v away_o all_o dispute_v and_o too_o beat_v back_o all_o replying_n he_o bring_v we_o too_o this_o wellspring_n namely_o that_o god_n not_o only_o give_v faith_n too_o who_o he_o list_v but_o also_o have_v elect_v and_o choose_v we_o before_o the_o make_n of_o the_o world_n you_o see_v then_o that_o the_o thing_n which_o we_o have_v too_o mark_v in_o effect_n be_v that_o all_o man_n from_o the_o most_o too_o the_o least_o be_v endanger_v unto_o god_n and_o there_o be_v none_o so_o holy_a or_o excellent_a that_o can_v exempt_v himself_o from_o that_o general_a state_n of_o man_n now_o hereupon_o s._n paul_n magnify_v god_n goodness_n in_o that_o the_o ephesian_n be_v gather_v together_o and_o make_v all_o one_o with_o those_o that_o be_v hold_v and_o account_v afore_o for_o god_n people_n and_o for_o the_o household_n folk_n of_o his_o church_n before_o the_o ephesian_n believe_v the_o gospel_n there_o be_v great_a diversity_n between_o they_o as_o shall_v be_v declare_v yet_o more_o at_o large_a in_o the_o second_o chapter_n but_o notwithstanding_o that_o the_o believe_a jew_n which_o have_v already_o be_v convert_v to_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n be_v as_o brethren_n too_o the_o angel_n of_o heaven_n for_o so_o much_o as_o they_o be_v member_n of_o the_o head_n that_o be_v common_a too_o they_o both_o whereas_o in_o the_o mean_a while_o the_o ephesian_n be_v poor_a wretch_n shut_v out_o from_o all_o hope_n of_o salvation_n enemy_n of_o god_n and_o plunge_v in_o all_o cursedness_n behold_v god_n take_v away_o that_o diversity_n and_o raundged_a they_o both_o in_o one_o array_n god_n goodness_n therefore_o be_v so_o much_o the_o more_o manifest_a in_o that_o he_o do_v so_o 〈◊〉_d they_o back_o which_o be_v drown_v in_o the_o bottom_n of_o hell_n to_o match_v they_o with_o his_o own_o child_n and_o too_o make_v they_o fellow_n and_o heir_n of_o his_o heavenly_a kingdom_n that_o therefore_o be_v the_o cause_n why_o s._n paul_n have_v speak_v of_o such_o as_o have_v believe_v in_o jesus_n christ_n afore_o tell_v we_o express_o that_o god_n have_v gather_v and_o establish_v his_o church_n in_o such_o wise_a as_o it_o well_o appear_v that_o the_o great_a depend_v whole_o upon_o he_o and_o have_v not_o any_o other_o thing_n to_o rest_v upon_o than_o his_o only_a mercy_n and_o that_o those_o which_o be_v after_o a_o sort_n cast_v away_o yea_o and_o abhor_v have_v

have_v inquire_v of_o it_o as_o much_o as_o be_v possible_a sure_o they_o must_v needs_o quail_v in_o their_o own_o imagination_n if_o they_o mind_n to_o enter_v into_o the_o say_v everlasting_a

true_o we_o see_v how_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n speak_v thereof_o in_o the_o fifteen_o of_o s._n john_n my_o father_n and_o i_o say_v he_o have_v always_o our_o hand_n at_o work_n there_o he_o

it_o be_v say_v so_o in_o respect_n of_o we_o too_o the_o intent_n that_o we_o shall_v not_o doubt_v but_o that_o god_n be_v continual_o near_a at_o hand_n too_o we_o when_o we_o seek_v he_o in_o

wherewith_o we_o be_v compass_v about_o as_o now_o and_o yet_o for_o all_o this_o it_o be_v not_o mean_v that_o jesus_n christ_n shall_v be_v abse_z for_o he_o shall_v be_v then_o much_o better_a in_o

the_o thing_n that_o lie_v as_o yet_o but_o in_o hope_n &_o jesus_n christ_n shall_v gather_v all_o thing_n too_o himself_o so_o as_o we_o shall_v be_v then_o partaker_n of_o his_o glory_n every_o man_n according_a too_o his_o own_o degree_n and_o measure_n thus_o you_o see_v how_o these_o two_o text_n agree_v very_o well_o namely_o that_o god_n have_v give_v christ_n a_o name_n above_o all_o name_n and_o also_o that_o he_o shall_v yield_v up_o the_o kingdom_n to_o god_n the_o father_n and_o why_o for_o we_o shall_v then_o see_v his_o heavenly_a majesty_n which_o we_o be_v not_o able_a too_o conceive_v as_o now_o because_o we_o be_v fleshly_a also_o we_o shall_v perceive_v that_o whereas_o jesus_n christ_n be_v appear_v unto_o we_o a_o mortal_a man_n he_o have_v be_v so_o glorify_v in_o his_o humane_a nature_n that_o in_o very_a deed_n he_o be_v god_n of_o oneself_o same_o substance_n with_o his_o father_n this_o say_v i_o shall_v be_v full_o know_v then_o whereas_o now_o we_o have_v but_o a_o little_a shadow_n of_o it_o furthermore_o let_v we_o learn_v that_o when_o jesus_n christ_n be_v exalt_v by_o god_n his_o father_n it_o be_v too_o the_o end_n that_o his_o advancement_n shall_v serve_v too_o our_o everlasting_a salvation_n and_o therefore_o in_o the_o ix_o of_o isaiah_n he_o be_v call_v the_o father_n of_o the_o world_n too_o come_v too_o the_o end_n we_o may_v know_v not_o only_o that_o he_o be_v give_v unto_o we_o for_o this_o transitory_a life_n but_o also_o that_o the_o substance_n of_o the_o faith_n which_o be_v ground_v in_o he_o be_v in_o

into_o full_a possession_n of_o all_o the_o good_n that_o be_v give_v too_o he_o already_o thus_o you_o see_v why_o s._n paul_n have_v purposely_o make_v express_a mention_n of_o the_o world_n too_o

which_o he_o treat_v of_o continual_o be_v that_o we_o can_v sufficient_o exalt_v our_o god_n consider_v the_o mercy_n that_o he_o use_v towards_o we_o and_o now_o too_o express_v the_o same_o yet_o the_o better_a and_o to_o touch_v we_o the_o more_o to_o the_o quick_a with_o it_o he_o show_v we_o as_o in_o a_o picture_n or_o in_o a_o glass_n what_o man_n be_v till_o god_n have_v prevent_v they_o

that_o in_o offer_v sacrifice_n too_o god_n man_n must_v not_o do_v any_o thing_n at_o all_o of_o their_o own_o
assure_v ourselves_o that_o if_o god_n son_n have_v not_o come_v down_o unto_o we_o there_o have_v be_v no_o mean_a for_o we_o too_o have_v come_v unto_o god_n his_o father_n for_o besyd_n that_o we_o

shall_v be_v always_o unhappy_a wherefore_o let_v we_o evermore_o abide_v steadfast_o by_o our_o god_n and_o hold_v we_o under_o his_o yoke_n and_o not_o shrink_v away_o in_o any_o wise_n but_o

much_o the_o more_o behove_v it_o we_o too_o mark_v well_o the_o thing_n that_o s._n paul_n tell_v we_o here_o namely_o that_o we_o have_v cause_n too_o praise_n god_n without_o end_n or_o cease_v

here_o we_o have_v to_o mark_v first_o of_o all_o that_o without_o faith_n we_o can_v praise_v god_n as_o we_o ought_v to_o do_v insomuch_o that_o whatsoever_o praise_n we_o sing_v with_o our_o

the_o papist_n suppoze_v it_o namely_o too_o believe_v that_o there_o be_v a_o god_n in_o heaven_n and_o in_o the_o mean_a while_n too_o know_v no_o whit_n of_o his_o will_n but_o saint_n paul_n

of_o wrath_n and_o god_n must_v needs_o disclaim_v we_o because_o there_o be_v nothing_o but_o sin_n and_o wickedness_n in_o we_o then_o ●ntill_o we_o come_v too_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n it_o be_v certain_a that_o we_o can_v be_v sure_a of_o god_n favour_n nor_o that_o he_o will_v accept_v our_o service_n and_o therefore_o
although_o god_n blissing_n shine_v forth_o every_o where_o both_o above_o and_o beneath_o yet_o be_v there_o always_o token_n of_o curse_v imprint_v in_o they_o so_o as_o we_o can_v behold_v neither_o heaven_n nor_o earth_n nor_o any_o other_o creature_n but_o we_o may_v partly_o perceive_v that_o god_n be_v become_v a_o stranger_n too_o we_o because_o our_o father_n adam_n fall_v from_o that_o noble_a and_o excellent_a state_n whereunto_o he_o be_v create_v afore_o this_o be_v too_o be_v see_v every_o where_o in_o all_o thing_n and_o special_o in_o marriage_n for_o woman_n ought_v too_o feel_v the_o fruit_n of_o their_o sin_n and_o man_n feel_v enough_o of_o it_o for_o their_o part_n for_o sure_o if_o eve_n and_o adam_n have_v continue_v in_o the_o righteousness_n that_o god_n have_v give_v they_o the_o whole_a state_n of_o this_o earthly_a life_n have_v be_v as_o a_o paradise_n and_o marriage_n have_v be_v so_o beautify_v that_o man_n and_o wife_n be_v match_v together_o shall_v have_v live_v in_o such_o accord_n as_o we_o see_v the_o angel_n of_o heaven_n do_v among_o who_o there_o be_v nothing_o but_o peace_n &_o brotherly_a love_n and_o even_o so_o have_v it_o be_v with_o we_o therefore_o as_o now_o when_o a_o man_n have_v a_o curse_a and_o shrewd_a wife_n who_o he_o can_v wield_v by_o any_o mean_n he_o must_v consider_v with_o himself_o lo_o here_o the_o fruit_n of_o original_a sin_n and_o of_o the_o corruption_n that_o be_v in_o myself_o and_o the_o wife_n also_o on_o her_o side_n must_v think_v good_a reason_n it_o be_v that_o i_o shall_v receive_v the_o payment_n that_o come_v of_o my_o disobedience_n towards_o god_n for_o that_o i_o hold_v not_o myself_o in_o his_o awe_n thus_o much_o concern_v the_o word_n subjection_n which_o be_v set_v

thing_n that_o can_v be_v put_v asunder_o like_v as_o when_o he_o exhort_v we_o erst_o too_o link_v together_o in_o mutual_a subjection_n 21._o he_o add_v this_o say_n in_o the_o fear_n of_o god._n and_o why_o for_o if_o we_o pretend_v too_o honour_n god_n and_o to_o obey_v he_o and_o in_o the_o mean_a while_n reject_v and_o despise_v our_o neighbour_n so_o as_o every_o of_o we_o be_v wed_v too_o himself_o and_o will_v needs_o be_v exempt_v from_o all_o law_n and_o rule_n it_o be_v too_o gross_a hypocrisy_n also_o if_o a_o wife_n pretend_v never_o so_o great_a devotion_n and_o seem_v too_o be_v thorough_o season_v with_o the_o fear_n of_o god_n and_o in_o the_o mean_a while_n be_v a_o fiend_n so_o as_o there_o be_v nothing_o but_o scold_v and_o brawl_a and_o wrangle_v and_o such_o

scorn_n of_o her_o husband_n who_o be_v her_o head_n and_o as_o it_o be_v god_n lieutenant_n in_o that_o behalf_n therefore_o let_v we_o mark_v that_o saint_n paul_n have_v not_o set_v down_o this_o similitude_n too_o match_v husband_n who_o be_v mortal_a creature_n yea_o &_o very_a worm_n of_o the_o earth_n in_o equal_a degree_n with_o jesus_n christ_n but_o too_o show_v brief_o that_o

her_o husband_n that_o be_v the_o pith_n of_o the_o matter_n which_o we_o have_v too_o remember_v upon_o this_o strain_v now_o then_o let_v wife_n look_v well_o too_o their_o duty_n and_o understand_v that_o when_o they_o contend_v with_o their_o husband_n it_o be_v all_o one_o as_o if_o they_o will_v reject_v god_n â–ª_o because_o he_o have_v not_o create_v they_o otherwise_o than_o with_o

have_v my_o head_n under_o his_o girdle_n yea_o but_o the_o wife_n that_o do_v so_o sheweth_z that_o she_o be_v loath_a that_o god_n shall_v have_v any_o authority_n over_o she_o and_o will_v fain_o

again_o notwithstanding_o that_o it_o be_v deadly_a now_o when_o they_o do_v so_o make_v war_n against_o the_o grace_n of_o god_n what_o can_v come_v of_o it_o but_o utter_a confusion_n but_o the_o

the_o husband_n think_v upon_o their_o duty_n for_o although_o to_o speak_v proper_o they_o be_v not_o subject_a to_o their_o wife_n because_o their_o wife_n have_v no_o authority_n over_o they_o yet_o be_v they_o advance_v too_o that_o honour_n of_o superiority_n with_o certain_a condition_n namely_o that_o they_o shall_v not_o be_v cruel_a towards_o their_o wife_n nor_o think_v all_o thing_n

too_o be_v so_o humble_v too_o be_v short_a let_v every_o man_n so_o mind_n this_o doctrine_n that_o when_o the_o husband_n have_v not_o all_o thing_n in_o his_o wife_n that_o he_o desire_v he_o may_v

we_o must_v warn_v and_o counsel_v one_o another_o so_o must_v there_o not_o be_v any_o such_o nearness_n or_o link_a together_o but_o that_o if_o the_o husband_n see_v any_o thing_n amiss_o in_o

even_o too_o be_v unviolable_a therefore_o we_o must_v not_o pass_v what_o the_o person_n be_v insomuch_o that_o although_o a_o woman_n have_v too_o rough_a &_o sharp_a a_o husband_n &_o such_o a_o

deal_v more_o gentle_o with_o she_o then_o like_a as_o the_o wife_n must_v on_o her_o side_n continue_v the_o bond_n of_o marriage_n and_o submit_v herself_o even_o without_o respect_v what_o her_o

and_o endeavour_v too_o disannul_v the_o thing_n that_o be_v inviolable_a by_o nature_n so_o then_o let_v every_o of_o we_o put_v this_o doctrine_n better_o in_o ure_n on_o his_o own_o behalf_n and_o let_v not_o only_o marry_v folk_n but_o also_o all_o man_n in_o general_n understand_v that_o we_o can_v estrange_v ourselves_o one_o from_o another_o and_o become_v unkind_a merciless_a and_o

too_o we_o too_o do_v the_o like_a too_o our_o neighbour_n that_o be_v too_o say_v too_o all_o man_n and_o much_o more_o consequent_o the_o father_n too_o their_o child_n and_o the_o child_n too_o
