for_o the_o righteousness_n of_o christ_n prefer_v it_o before_o all_o the_o glory_n and_o riches_n in_o the_o world_n whatsoever_o oh_o say_v he_o lift_v up_o his_o die_a eye_n to_o heaven_n that_o

the_o lord_n speak_v to_o his_o people_n out_o of_o a_o part_n of_o that_o psalm_n even_o now_o sing_v psal_n 39_o verse_n 11._o the_o word_n be_v these_o when_o thou_o with_o rebuke_n do_v chastise_v

most_o necessary_a to_o be_v know_v in_o regard_n of_o god_n that_o man_n may_v yield_v the_o great_a obedience_n and_o reverence_n unto_o he_o of_o who_o natural_o he_o have_v so_o mean_a and_o

be_v plain_a psal_n 50.21_o now_o that_o he_o that_o run_v may_v read_v these_o thing_n in_o god_n therefore_o do_v our_o prophet_n demonstrate_v and_o set_v forth_o this_o god_n though_o not_o as_o god_n do_v himself_o elsewhere_o by_o his_o glorious_a name_n gen._n 3.14_o and_o glorious_a work_n 1._o of_o creation_n jer._n 5.20_o 2._o of_o providence_n jer._n 23.24_o yet_o in_o as_o familiar_a a_o manner_n and_o way_n of_o comparison_n compare_v he_o and_o man_n together_o man_z we_o know_v of_o all_o other_o creature_n here_o in_o this_o inferior_a world_n be_v the_o most_o excellent_a

fowl_n of_o the_o heaven_n can_v endure_v if_o then_o our_o prophet_n will_v needs_o compare_v the_o creator_n with_o the_o creature_n with_o who_o may_v he_o better_o do_v it_o then_o with_o man_n and_o if_o not_o with_o he_o whereunto_o will_v you_o liken_v i_o say_v the_o lord_n isa_n 40.18_o neither_o be_v we_o indeed_o to_o imagine_v as_o though_o our_o prophet_n by_o this_o comparison_n of_o he_o have_v any_o mind_n at_o all_o to_o darken_v or_o blemish_v in_o the_o least_o respect_n the_o glory_n and_o beauty_n of_o this_o almighty_a god_n alas_o brethren_n if_o he_o have_v such_o a_o thought_n as_o far_o be_v such_o thought_n from_o we_o so_o to_o conceit_v this_o comparison_n doubtless_o this_o will_v not_o do_v it_o what_o beauty_n trow_v you_o be_v in_o the_o silly_a worm_n to_o blemish_v the_o glory_n of_o the_o mighty_a prince_n or_o what_o light_n be_v in_o a_o small_a and_o fade_a sparkle_n to_o darken_v the_o lustre_n of_o the_o glorious_a sun_n nay_o rather_o we_o ought_v to_o know_v that_o this_o comparison_n here_o of_o our_o prophet_n do_v serve_v most_o excellent_o as_o it_o usual_o fall_v out_o when_o contrary_n be_v compare_v to_o set_v forth_o the_o wonderful_a difference_n between_o god_n and_o man_n his_o power_n and_o man_n weakness_n his_o eternity_n and_o man_n vanity_n that_o we_o may_v yet_o look_v further_o into_o these_o thing_n let_v we_o i_o beseech_v you_o consider_v in_o the_o demonstration_n these_o two_o thing_n 1._o the_o precedent_n 2._o the_o subsequent_a the_o precedent_n in_o these_o word_n when_o thou_o with_o etc._n etc._n the_o subsequent_a in_o these_o thou_o as_o a_o moth_n make_v etc._n etc._n and_o withal_o let_v we_o observe_v he_o lay_v down_o the_o ground_n of_o this_o latter_a surely_n say_v he_o every_o man_n be_v vanity_n in_o the_o precedent_n we_o be_v not_o to_o behold_v god_n sleep_v but_o wake_v when_o a_o sleep_n no_o difference_n between_o the_o coward_n and_o valiant_a man_n the_o courageous_a lion_n and_o timorous_a hare_n and_o therefore_o he_o set_v forth_o god_n not_o only_o awake_v but_o rouse_a up_o himself_o meaning_n indeed_o to_o show_v himself_o a_o god_n in_o punish_v man_n for_o his_o offence_n and_o take_v this_o course_n with_o he_o then_o what_o follow_v the_o subsequent_a be_v as_o a_o moth_n etc._n etc._n well_o put_v both_o together_o the_o precedent_n and_o subsequent_a and_o then_o you_o have_v the_o comparison_n whereof_o i_o speak_v before_o god_n compare_v to_o a_o fret_a devour_a moth_n and_o man_n to_o a_o pleasant_a and_o delightful_a garment_n the_o moth_n seize_v upon_o the_o garment_n and_o the_o beauty_n of_o the_o garment_n present_o waste_v god_n rebuke_v man_n for_o his_o sin_n and_o man_n withal_o his_o glory_n sudden_o vanish_v and_o no_o marvel_n for_o he_o be_v but_o vanity_n to_o see_v the_o comparison_n a_o little_a better_o a_o garment_n we_o know_v let_v it_o be_v of_o never_o so_o rich_a a_o cloth_n
