into_o such_o complaint_n be_v these_o ah_o why_o be_v there_o not_o a_o million_o of_o those_o base_a and_o guilty_a wretch_n sacrifice_v for_o the_o preservation_n of_o one_o so_o dear_a and_o

the_o conduct_n of_o that_o god_n who_o be_v wonderful_a in_o counsel_n and_o excellent_a in_o work_v his_o providence_n do_v often_o set_v in_o order_n second_o cause_n for_o the_o production_n of_o

of_o brass_n we_o live_v in_o the_o dregs_o of_o time_n a_o time_n in_o which_o the_o world_n and_o the_o church_n have_v need_n of_o great_a agent_n and_o example_n for_o the_o reformation_n both_o of_o doctrine_n and_o manner_n god_n seem_v to_o have_v unite_v the_o two_o wise_a most_o pious_a and_o most_o zealous_a person_n of_o our_o age_n to_o accomplish_v his_o work_n and_o make_v a_o new_a

the_o first_o be_v our_o own_o ignorance_n we_o believe_v that_o he_o will_v proceed_v in_o one_o method_n and_o we_o see_v that_o he_o have_v take_v another_o which_o ought_v to_o make_v we_o acknowledge_v our_o ignorance_n of_o the_o depth_n of_o his_o providence_n the_o other_o thing_n that_o god_n will_v teach_v we_o be_v that_o we_o shall_v always_o live_v in_o a_o entire_a and_o even_o in_o some_o measure_n in_o a_o immediate_a dependence_n on_o his_o will._n he_o will_v not_o have_v we_o to_o depend_v too_o much_o on_o humane_a mean_n he_o will_v give_v we_o to_o understand_v that_o his_o wisdom_n be_v infinite_a and_o that_o he_o have_v a_o thousand_o way_n to_o arrive_v at_o the_o same_o end_n he_o deprive_v we_o of_o person_n that_o seem_v to_o be_v most_o necessary_a for_o the_o execution_n of_o his_o design_n and_o yet_o he_o will_v not_o have_v we_o doubt_v of_o the_o accomplishment_n of_o they_o let_v we_o leave_v all_o to_o he_o for_o if_o he_o do_v not_o finish_v his_o work_n by_o this_o way_n he_o will_v certain_o do_v it_o by_o another_o we_o think_v that_o he_o will_v have_v perform_v that_o great_a work_n by_o two_o excellent_a person_n and_o he_o have_v now_o teach_v we_o that_o have_v begin_v it_o by_o two_o illustrious_a head_n he_o will_v perfect_v it_o by_o one._n our_o great_a queen_n have_v be_v not_o a_o little_a useful_a to_o produce_v those_o great_a event_n if_o she_o do_v not_o lead_v the_o prince_n to_o the_o throne_n she_o facilitated_a the_o way_n to_o it_o which_o his_o own_o wisdom_n and_o courage_n have_v

who_o be_v the_o breath_n of_o our_o nostril_n according_a to_o the_o style_n of_o the_o prophet_n we_o will_v breathe_v still_o we_o will_v hope_v and_o we_o will_v live_v i_o be_o not_o ignorant_a that_o the_o enemy_n of_o the_o peace_n of_o europe_n will_v be_v ready_a to_o conceive_v great_a hope_n from_o this_o mournful_a accident_n but_o he_o that_o sit_v in_o the_o heaven_n shall_v laugh_v

upon_o we_o but_o he_o stop_v it_o before_o it_o come_v to_o the_o bottom_n we_o ought_v every_o one_o of_o we_o to_o stand_v between_o the_o dead_a and_o the_o live_n that_o the_o plague_n may_v be_v
