of_o christ_n our_o saviour_n king_n solomon_n leave_v some_o book_n in_o writing_n wherein_o be_v see_v some_o part_n of_o his_o wisdom_n and_o christ_n our_o king_n have_v leave_v unto_o we_o his_o

fast_o to_o 26_o fill_v their_o belly_n so_o these_o frequent_a sermon_n for_o fashion_n to_o serve_v the_o time_n zaccheus_n be_v desirous_a to_o see_v christ_n a_o godly_a care_n but_o yet_o he_o can_v not_o obtain_v his_o purpose_n a_o thing_n common_a for_o every_o one_o that_o have_v any_o good_a motion_n have_v always_o some_o hindrance_n to_o cross_v the_o same_o impediment_n and_o zaccheus_n have_v a_o double_a impediment_n to_o hinder_v his_o honest_a enterprise_n the_o press_n of_o the_o people_n and_o his_o little_a stature_n whereof_o the_o former_a that_o be_v the_o

hinder_v zaccheus_n here_o from_o come_v unto_o christ_n till_o christ_n vouchsafe_v to_o call_v he_o to_o himself_o thus_o always_o a_o multitude_n that_o be_v prone_a to_o evil_n do_v withdraw_v and_o hinder_v we_o from_o approach_v unto_o christ_n and_o therefore_o we_o must_v not_o follow_v a_o multitude_n to_o do_v evil_a nor_o decline_v after_o many_o to_o overthrow_v the_o truth_n 23_o exod._n 23._o the_o second_o impediment_n that_o hinder_v zaccheus_n from_o see_v christ_n be_v his_o little_a stature_n he_o be_v so_o low_o of_o stature_n that_o he_o can_v not_o see_v christ_n above_o the_o multitude_n but_o christ_n be_v above_o the_o multitude_n and_o therefore_o can_v see_v zaccheus_n though_o he_o be_v so_o low_o of_o stature_n for_o god_n look_v not_o on_o the_o countenance_n 7_o nor_o on_o the_o height_n of_o a_o man_n stature_n but_o the_o lord_n behold_v the_o heart_n and_o prefer_v little_a david_n before_o eliab_n his_o elder_a brother_n 12._o because_o he_o find_v in_o he_o a_o better_a heart_n to_o serve_v the_o lord_n and_o zaccheus_n in_o his_o little_a body_n have_v a_o heart_n and_o mind_n prepare_v to_o seek_v and_o see_v the_o lord_n zaccheus_n be_v so_o low_a that_o he_o can_v not_o see_v christ_n but_o many_o amongst_o we_o be_v so_o high_a that_o they_o will_v not_o see_v christ_n the_o common_a people_n in_o the_o time_n of_o christ_n be_v so_o desirous_a to_o follow_v christ_n that_o neither_o lameness_n nor_o blindness_n nor_o sickness_n can_v stay_v they_o from_o come_v to_o he_o but_o the_o common_a people_n in_o our_o time_n be_v more_o ready_a to_o follow_v their_o sport_n and_o pastime_n then_o to_o come_v to_o the_o church_n to_o hear_v of_o christ_n and_o as_o for_o our_o rich_a man_n who_o see_v not_o that_o they_o will_v make_v great_a haste_n to_o see_v a_o commodity_n but_o will_v scarce_o come_v out_o of_o door_n to_o hear_v a_o sermon_n they_o come_v to_o church_n 32_o as_o nichodemus_n come_v to_o christ_n by_o night_n as_o if_o they_o be_v ashamed_a to_o come_v to_o church_n but_o they_o run_v after_o profit_n to_o get_v riches_n 5_o as_o gehezi_n run_v after_o naaman_n the_o syrian_a to_o get_v a_o bribe_n thus_o have_v zaccheus_n then_o let_v that_o he_o can_v not_o see_v christ_n the_o one_o in_o the_o people_n the_o other_o in_o himself_o and_o we_o have_v many_o let_v to_o withdraw_v we_o from_o christ_n some_o be_v external_a and_o without_o we_o as_o the_o inticemente_n of_o the_o world_n and_o some_o be_v internal_a and_o within_o we_o as_o the_o lust_n of_o our_o own_o flesh_n the_o press_n of_o the_o people_n hinder_v zaccheus_n from_o see_v christ_n in_o his_o humility_n and_o the_o multitude_n of_o our_o sin_n 2_o do_v press_v we_o down_o that_o we_o can_v see_v christ_n in_o glory_n zaccheus_n be_v a_o man_n of_o little_a stature_n and_o that_o hinder_v he_o from_o see_v christ_n in_o earth_n and_o we_o be_v man_n of_o

little_a faith_n and_o that_o be_v the_o cause_n we_o can_v behold_v christ_n in_o heaven_n though_o zaccheus_n be_v a_o man_n of_o little_a stature_n yet_o it_o appear_v that_o he_o be_v not_o a_o man_n of_o little_a wit_n for_o when_o he_o can_v not_o come_v to_o the_o sight_n of_o christ_n for_o the_o multitude_n he_o have_v the_o wit_n to_o run_v before_o and_o to_o climb_v up_o into_o a_o tree_n to_o obtain_v his_o purpose_n and_o for_o the_o most_o part_n it_o fall_v out_o that_o man_n of_o low_a stature_n be_v man_n of_o high_a conceit_n and_o the_o short_a body_n have_v the_o sharp_a wit_n god_n so_o provide_v that_o the_o defect_n of_o their_o body_n may_v be_v supply_v with_o the_o gift_n of_o their_o mind_n now_o zaccheus_n that_o before_o be_v loath_a to_o move_v his_o foot_n from_o the_o custom-house_n for_o lose_v his_o profit_n begin_v to_o run_v after_o christ_n for_o fear_n of_o a_o great_a loss_n like_o elisa_n that_o leave_v his_o plough_v and_o run_v after_o elias_n to_o follow_v his_o new_a vocation_n 19_o but_o zaccheus_n do_v not_o only_o run_v but_o also_o climb_v up_o into_o a_o tree_n to_o see_v christ_n a_o strange_a thing_n that_o zaccheus_n a_o rich_a man_n and_o a_o chief_a customer_n shall_v behave_v himself_o so_o childish_o in_o the_o sight_n of_o so_o great_a a_o multitude_n but_o the_o desire_n he_o have_v to_o see_v christ_n make_v he_o forget_v himself_o and_o to_o commit_v such_o thing_n as_o be_v not_o fit_v for_o his_o state_n and_o credit_n so_o they_o that_o will_v follow_v christ_n must_v make_v account_n to_o do_v many_o thing_n contrary_a to_o the_o 12_o fashion_n of_o the_o world_n and_o their_o own_o like_n if_o christ_n himself_o be_v content_a to_o leave_v the_o glory_n which_o he_o have_v with_o his_o father_n to_o come_v down_o to_o we_o shall_v not_o we_o be_v content_a to_o leave_v the_o reputation_n which_o we_o have_v with_o man_n to_o go_v up_o to_o he_o but_o alas_o where_o be_v there_o any_o almost_o that_o prefer_v not_o the_o fruition_n of_o this_o earthly_a prison_n before_o the_o possession_n of_o that_o heavenly_a mansion_n and_o have_v rather_o hazard_v the_o hope_n which_o they_o have_v of_o eternal_a glory_n then_o lose_v the_o present_a enjoy_n of_o their_o fade_a pleasure_n the_o ambitious_a man_n hunt_v after_o honour_n and_o will_v not_o lose_v a_o inch_n of_o his_o estimation_n the_o covetous_a man_n seek_v after_o profit_n and_o count_v like_a judas_n all_o lose_v that_o come_v not_o to_o his_o bag_n and_o the_o voluptuous_a man_n bestow_v his_o time_n in_o pleasure_n 6._o and_o think_v that_o his_o chief_a felicittie_n thus_o every_o man_n make_v his_o heaven_n of_o that_o wherein_o he_o most_o delight_v &_o be_v content_a to_o take_v great_a pain_n to_o accomplish_v his_o fond_a desire_n but_o here_o zaccheus_n be_v of_o another_o mind_n for_o be_v a_o public_a officer_n he_o climb_v into_o a_o tree_n which_o stand_v not_o with_o his_o gravity_n and_o be_v a_o rich_a man_n he_o run_v to_o see_v christ_n which_o be_v not_o for_o his_o worldly_a profit_n yea_o he_o take_v great_a pain_n to_o see_v christ_n not_o respect_v his_o ease_n or_o pleasure_n thus_o must_v we_o be_v affect_v if_o we_o desire_v to_o come_v to_o christ_n that_o neither_o honour_n nor_o preferment_n nor_o profit_n nor_o pleasure_n nor_o kindred_n nor_o friend_n be_v able_a to_o hold_v we_o back_o 22._o we_o must_v be_v ready_a not_o only_o to_o run_v 26._o but_o also_o to_o climb_v if_o need_v require_v as_o zaccheus_n do_v that_o be_v to_o take_v some_o pain_n and_o travail_n to_o have_v a_o sight_n of_o christ_n the_o queen_n of_o the_o south_n 10._o undertake_v a_o great_a and_o tedious_a journey_n to_o hear_v the_o wisdom_n of_o solomon_n but_o we_o be_v loath_a to_o take_v any_o pain_n to_o hear_v one_o that_o be_v great_a than_o solomon_n the_o people_n in_o david_n time_n bring_v so_o much_o treasure_n 9_o and_o so_o many_o gift_n to_o the_o build_n of_o god_n temple_n that_o the_o priest_n be_v fain_o to_o bid_v they_o cease_v but_o a_o great_a part_n of_o the_o people_n in_o our_o time_n be_v so_o spare_v of_o their_o pain_n and_o cost_n that_o they_o think_v that_o very_a time_n misspend_v which_o be_v employ_v in_o the_o service_n of_o god_n and_o that_o money_n ill_o bestow_v which_o be_v give_v to_o the_o maintenance_n of_o his_o minister_n when_o zaccheus_n can_v not_o see_v christ_n for_o the_o multitude_n he_o climb_v up_o into_o a_o tree_n that_o grow_v in_o the_o way_n where_o he_o be_v to_o pass_v that_o from_o a_o tree_n he_o may_v behold_v he_o which_o be_v to_o suffer_v on_o a_o tree_n for_o man_n salvation_n so_o when_o we_o can_v draw_v near_o to_o christ_n by_o reason_n of_o our_o sin_n that_o press_v we_o

we_o may_v behold_v he_o that_o die_v for_o our_o sin_n upon_o a_o tree_n it_o be_v a_o wild_a fig_n tree_n that_o zaccheus_n clymb_v 19_o but_o not_o like_o that_o unfruitful_a one_o which_o our_o

may_v have_v climb_v to_o no_o purpose_n so_o if_o we_o desire_v to_o find_v christ_n we_o must_v seek_v he_o in_o the_o way_n where_o he_o have_v promise_v to_o show_v himself_o unto_o we_o that_o
