that_o it_o be_v another_o spice_n of_o god_n power_n when_o he_o say_v that_o he_o clive_v the_o sea._n for_o when_o the_o wave_n heave_v up_o themselves_o it_o seem_v that_o the_o sea_n shall_v rush_v upon_o we_o and_o swallow_v up_o all_o but_o when_o a_o man_n be_v in_o the_o mid_n of_o it_o he_o see_v a_o dreadful_a sight_n for_o the_o wave_n seem_v to_o be_v as_o mountain_n and_o the_o

afterward_o appear_v the_o pride_n of_o it_o and_o that_o sudden_a change_n serve_v too_o show_v god_n mighty_a power_n the_o better_a for_o if_o a_o man_n be_v in_o the_o midd_n of_o the_o sea_n in_o a_o great_a tempest_n and_o see_v so_o huge_a and_o high_a mountain_n of_o water_n he_o think_v not_o that_o the_o sea_n may_v be_v calm_v not_o only_o within_o the_o space_n of_o two_o or_o three_o

man_n see_v the_o wonderful_a power_n of_o god_n this_o be_v it_o that_o job_n mean_v to_o utter_v here_o and_o thereupon_o we_o may_v gather_v that_o his_o intent_n be_v to_o express_v more_o clear_o and_o to_o advance_v more_o high_o the_o thing_n that_o he_o have_v say_v afore_o for_o general_o he_o have_v say_v that_o god_n have_v bound_v the_o sea_n ▪_o &_o now_o he_o say_v that_o he_o clive_v it_o by_o his_o mighty_a power_n thereupon_o he_o say_v further_a that_o god_n have_v garnish_v the_o heaven_n by_o his_o spirit_n and_o shape_v the_o slippery_a serpent_n when_o he_o speak_v here_o of_o the_o serpent_n he_o mean_v not_o any_o of_o the_o serpent_n that_o be_v on_o earth_n for_o to_o what_o purpose_n shall_v he_o have_v match_v they_o with_o the_o heaven_n but_o he_o speak_v of_o the_o number_n of_o star_n which_o be_v common_o call_v the_o serpent_n because_o those_o star_n stand_v in_o a_o writhe_v row_n after_o the_o manner_n of_o a_o serpent_n that_o wrythe_v his_o tail_n by_o reason_n of_o that_o wrthe_n that_o figure_n or_o shape_n have_v be_v term_v by_o the_o name_n of_o a_o snake_n and_o that_o be_v to_o the_o end_n that_o man_n may_v the_o better_o discern_v god_n work_v asunder_o one_o from_o another_o true_a it_o be_v that_o folk_n have_v intermeddle_v fable_n yea_o even_o wicked_a fable_n for_o the_o devil_n have_v always_o have_v this_o knack_n with_o he_o to_o turn_v man_n aside_o from_o the_o creation_n of_o the_o world_n where_o they_o have_v a_o singular_a avouchment_v of_o god_n majesty_n nevertheless_o the_o very_a first_o use_v of_o the_o term_n serpent_n or_o snake_n be_v but_o only_o to_o teach_v man_n to_o look_v the_o better_a upon_o the_o order_n of_o the_o star_n again_o when_o as_o job_n say_v here_o that_o god_n garnish_v the_o heaven_n by_o his_o spirit_n under_o one_o kind_n he_o comprehend_v the_o whole_a and_o what_o be_v those_o ornament_n what_o be_v those_o beautify_n they_o be_v say_v he_o the_o star_n which_o give_v fashion_n to_o the_o heaven_n ▪_o for_o without_o they_o it_o be_v a_o waste_a thing_n &_o our_o sight_n shall_v be_v confound_v but_o forasmuch_o as_o we_o have_v the_o sun_n by_o day_n and_o the_o star_n by_o night_n thereby_o we_o know_v the_o better_a that_o god_n think_v it_o not_o enough_o to_o have_v make_v the_o welkin_n only_o in_o respect_n that_o it_o be_v necessary_a for_o we_o too_o

of_o the_o star_n in_o the_o sky_n and_o his_o deck_v of_o it_o with_o such_o beauty_n be_v to_o the_o end_n that_o we_o shall_v be_v the_o more_o provoke_v to_o magnify_v he_o in_o his_o goodness_n

be_v we_o must_v always_o hold_v this_o for_o a_o certainty_n that_o the_o naughtiness_n which_o be_v in_o the_o devil_n proceed_v of_o themselves_o &_o that_o when_o they_o become_v to_o be_v

altogether_o evil_a likewise_o whereas_o sin_n be_v in_o man_n nature_n it_o be_v not_o of_o god_n put_v in_o by_o creation_n but_o by_o reason_n that_o satan_n do_v spread_v his_o naughtiness_n further_o abroad_o at_o such_o time_n as_o man_n be_v beguile_v by_o his_o wiliness_n to_o disappoint_v the_o benefit_n of_o god_n thus_o you_o see_v how_o the_o devil_n become_v accurse_v of_o

can_v they_o enjoy_v it_o for_o ever_o if_o god_n shall_v not_o continue_v the_o say_a grace_n which_o he_o have_v put_v into_o they_o and_o like_v as_o we_o speak_v of_o life_n so_o must_v we_o

that_o be_v because_o god_n execute_v his_o power_n by_o they_o and_o guide_v they_o to_o be_v short_a the_o angel_n have_v nothing_o in_o themselves_o whereof_o to_o make_v their_o boast_n for_o

of_o god_n but_o the_o meaning_n of_o it_o be_v that_o he_o put_v it_o to_o they_o or_o charge_v they_o with_o it_o by_o his_o judgement_n that_o be_v to_o say_v that_o as_o a_o judge_n he_o give_v

will_v deal_v rigorous_o with_o they_o very_o this_o seem_v strange_a to_o such_o as_o be_v not_o exercise_v in_o the_o holy_a scripture_n but_o if_o we_o wist_v what_o the_o righteousness_n of_o

to_o this_o point_n that_o the_o good_a thing_n that_o be_v in_o all_o creature_n be_v small_a in_o estimation_n of_o that_o which_o be_v in_o god_n which_o be_v utter_o infinite_a therefore_o we_o must_v always_o put_v a_o difference_n between_o the_o one_o &_o the_o other_o we_o see_v the_o angel_n have_v wonderful_a power_n &_o virtue_n special_o in_o respect_n of_o we_o for_o notwithstanding_o that_o the_o angel_n abide_v in_o the_o degree_n of_o creature_n yet_o may_v we_o well_o glorify_v they_o but_o when_o we_o come_v to_o god_n the_o greatness_n of_o he_o must_v

the_o rest_n and_o yet_o nevertheless_o because_o god_n have_v grant_v that_o creature_n to_o have_v more_o brightness_n than_o the_o other_o star_n all_o of_o they_o must_v needs_o he_o overshadow_a so_o as_o no_o star_n can_v be_v pereeyve_v when_o the_o sun_n have_v his_o full_a power_n and_o what_o will_v be_v do_v they_o when_o god_n himself_o come_v forth_o as_o the_o prophet_n isaiah_n

which_o be_v speak_v here_o that_o be_v to_o wit_n that_o god_n find_v lack_n in_o his_o angel_n although_o they_o be_v his_o servant_n and_o yet_o this_o be_v no_o let_v but_o that_o the_o service_n which_o the_o angel_n do_v unto_o god_n be_v perfect_a according_a to_o the_o perfection_n that_o can_v be_v in_o creature_n likewise_o as_o in_o that_o respect_n when_o in_o pray_v we_o desire_v

this_o point_n that_o we_o must_v be_v fain_o to_o look_v unto_o god_n we_o begin_v after_o a_o sort_n to_o rouse_v up_o ourselves_o so_o as_o we_o be_v no_o more_o so_o careless_a &_o drowsy_a as_o we_o be_v there_o be_v no_o more_o of_o this_o loftiness_n and_o fond_a overween_a to_o sooth_n and_o flatter_v ourselves_o withal_o we_o come_v to_o have_v some_o feel_n and_o perceive_v of_o our_o

it_o make_v we_o too_o tremble_v yet_o the_o more_o we_o see_v it_o be_v no_o sport_v matter_n here_o be_v no_o sleep_v for_o we_o nor_o no_o bear_v of_o our_o self_n in_o hand_n with_o this_o or_o

to_o ourselves_o first_o of_o all_o as_o oft_o as_o we_o feel_v not_o ourselves_o sufficient_o waken_v to_o condemn_v ourselves_o in_o our_o sin_n let_v we_o use_v the_o order_n that_o be_v set_v down_o to_o we_o here_o which_o be_v to_o have_v a_o eye_n unto_o god_n how_o be_v that_o we_o may_v see_v some_o man_n that_o be_v sufficient_o convince_v of_o his_o sin_n who_o notwithstanding_o

torment_v i_o without_o end_n or_o cease_v lo_o how_o man_n do_v always_o grunt_v and_o although_o they_o utter_v not_o such_o murmur_n with_o their_o mouth_n yet_o it_o be_v sure_a that_o they_o

let_v we_o bear_v in_o mind_n the_o warning_n that_o i_o have_v give_v already_o that_o be_v to_o wit_n that_o when_o we_o have_v any_o bitterness_n in_o our_o heart_n we_o come_v unto_o god_n to_o

as_o he_o ought_v to_o have_v have_v true_a it_o be_v as_o i_o have_v say_v afore_o that_o he_o cease_v not_o to_o be_v patient_a how_o be_v it_o his_o patience_n be_v not_o continual_o perfect_v

that_o the_o overween_a and_o pride_n of_o our_o nature_n drive_v we_o thereunto_o but_o hereby_o we_o have_v also_o to_o consider_v the_o goodness_n of_o our_o god_n who_o apply_v himself_o unto_o

be_v mark_v as_o touch_v the_o first_o i_o have_v tell_v you_o how_o it_o behove_v man_n to_o consider_v how_o raw_a and_o how_o weak_a of_o understanding_n they_o be_v that_o they_o presume_v not_o to_o thrust_v themselves_o too_o far_o forward_o too_o make_v inquisition_n of_o god_n work_v more_o than_o he_o will_v they_o and_o give_v they_o leave_v to_o do_v i_o say_v more_o than_o he_o will_v they_o and_o give_v they_o leave_v to_o do_v ▪_o for_o as_o i_o have_v touch_v already_o god_n of_o his_o goodness_n do_v not_o utter_o bar_v we_o from_o have_v any_o perceiverance_n at_o all_o of_o his_o wisdom_n but_o it_o behove_v we_o to_o keep_v measure_n then_o let_v we_o be_v well_o advise_v that_o every_o of_o we_o have_v a_o eye_n to_o his_o own_o hability_n and_o too_o mark_v how_o subtle_a and_o sharp_a witted_a we_o be_v and_o how_o great_o give_v too_o this_o overboldenesse_n whereunto_o our_o own_o nature_n egg_v we_o continual_o how_o be_v that_o we_o will_v always_o bring_v god_n to_o account_v of_o all_o his_o do_n when_o we_o meet_v with_o any_o strange_a thing_n and_o man_n say_v unto_o we_o such_o be_v god_n good_a pleasure_n because_o he_o have_v ordain_v so_o and_o therefore_o we_o must_v not_o plead_v against_o he_o yea_o say_v we_o but_o why_o do_v he_o not_o otherwise_o for_o such_o a_o inconvenience_n will_v ensue_v hereupon_o and_o the_o matter_n may_v draw_v quite_o and_o clean_a awke_z from_o that_o which_o may_v be_v for_o our_o profit_n thus_o we_o see_v how_o that_o at_o every_o push_n we_o will_v fain_o have_v god_n to_o yield_v we_o a_o reason_n why_o
justify_v themselves_o before_o god_n for_o first_o and_o foremost_a they_o have_v need_v to_o be_v clean_a and_o pure_a than_o the_o angel_n and_o they_o have_v need_n to_o surmoung_a the_o brightness_n of_o the_o sun_n and_o the_o star_n see_v that_o the_o heaven_n themselves_o be_v infect_v â–ª_o before_o god_n if_o comparison_n shall_v be_v make_v between_o they_o and_o he_o this_o have_v be_v treat_v of_o in_o part_n already_o heretofore_o howbeit_o as_o it_o be_v not_o repeat_v here_o without_o cause_n so_o have_v we_o need_v to_o call_v to_o mind_n the_o thing_n that_o have_v be_v say_v afore_o for_o it_o be_v a_o notable_a lesson_n and_o such_o a_o one_o as_o can_v not_o be_v mind_v too_o often_o first_o it_o behove_v we_o to_o know_v after_o what_o sort_n the_o angel_n have_v not_o steadfastness_n before_o god_n some_o have_v expound_v it_o of_o the_o devil_n but_o there_o be_v no_o reason_n in_o so_o do_v for_o what_o a_o thing_n be_v it_o to_o say_v the_o devil_n be_v not_o righteous_a and_o therefore_o must_v not_o man_n take_v upon_o they_o to_o be_v so_o we_o know_v that_o the_o devil_n be_v the_o prince_n of_o all_o iniquity_n and_o naughtiness_n but_o here_o be_v express_a mention_n make_v of_o the_o angel_n and_o you_o see_v how_o that_o in_o this_o place_n they_o be_v term_v the_o saint_n or_o holy_a one_o of_o god_n according_a also_o as_o the_o holy_a scripture_n yield_v they_o the_o same_o title_n and_o oftentimes_o call_v they_o the_o elect_a or_o choose_v angel_n but_o now_o let_v we_o consider_v after_o what_o sort_n god_n find_v no_o steadfastness_n in_o they_o it_o be_v not_o only_o because_o they_o shall_v not_o have_v the_o constancy_n to_o cotinue_v in_o goodness_n unless_o god_n preserve_v they_o by_o his_o power_n â–ª_o but_o because_o that_o of_o a_o very_a truth_n they_o have_v not_o so_o sound_a and_o exquisite_a a_o righteousness_n as_o that_o they_o may_v rest_v themselves_o upon_o the_o same_o when_o it_o come_v to_o the_o point_n of_o present_v themselves_o afore_o god_n to_o render_v their_o account_n that_o point_n say_v i_o shall_v not_o be_v find_v in_o the_o angel_n and_o how_o so_o for_o we_o see_v they_o have_v none_o other_o desire_v but_o to_o obey_v god_n neither_o be_v they_o subject_a to_o evil_a lust_n as_o we_o be_v there_o be_v no_o temptation_n in_o they_o to_o thrust_v they_o out_o of_o the_o way_n and_o when_o we_o desire_v that_o god_n will_v shall_v be_v do_v in_o earth_n as_o it_o be_v in_o heaven_n we_o meene_z thereby_o that_o the_o obedience_n which_o the_o angel_n yield_v unto_o god_n be_v without_o impeachment_n and_o not_o a_o unperfect_a and_o feeble_a thing_n as_o we_o be_v who_o when_o we_o desire_v to_o do_v good_a do_v go_v to_o it_o limp_o and_o be_v not_o the_o ten_o part_n so_o give_v to_o the_o serve_v of_o god_n as_o be_v requisite_a how_o then_o do_v we_o understand_v that_o god_n find_v not_o steadfastness_n in_o his_o angel_n that_o be_v to_o say_v they_o be_v not_o able_a to_o answer_v before_o he_o i_o have_v tell_v you_o afore_o that_o in_o judge_v of_o we_o god_n use_v the_o measure_n which_o he_o have_v set_v down_o in_o his_o law_n that_o be_v to_o wit_n that_o we_o love_v he_o with_o all_o our_o heart_n with_o all_o our_o mind_n and_o with_o all_o our_o strength_n thus_o you_o see_v a_o mean_a righteousness_n wherewith_o god_n content_v himself_o when_o the_o case_n concern_v judge_v of_o angel_n and_o man_n but_o even_o according_a to_o this_o righteousness_n we_o be_v faulty_a for_o who_o be_v he_o that_o can_v boast_v of_o the_o yield_v up_o of_o his_o whole_a affection_n unto_o god_n and_o not_o to_o have_v be_v draw_v away_o from_o it_o by_o some_o wicked_a lust_n alas_o we_o be_v so_o far_o off_o from_o attain_v to_o that_o point_n as_o it_o be_v very_o much_o if_o we_o be_v in_o the_o way_n thitherward_o you_o see_v then_o that_o all_o man_n be_v condemn_v before_o god_n even_o as_o in_o respect_n of_o this_o mean_a righteousness_n and_o you_o see_v also_o that_o when_o saint_n paul_n allege_v this_o sentence_n curse_v be_v he_o that_o fulfil_v not_o all_o the_o thing_n that_o be_v contain_v in_o the_o law_n he_o say_v it_o be_v a_o sentence_n that_o condemn_v we_o all_o but_o the_o angel_n be_v acceptable_a too_o god_n in_o respect_n of_o this_o righteousness_n and_o why_o because_o there_o be_v no_o blemish_n nor_o spot_n in_o they_o but_o all_o their_o desire_n be_v set_v whole_o to_o the_o serve_v and_o honour_v of_o god_n so_o as_o they_o give_v themselves_o to_o nothing_o else_o and_o so_o according_a to_o the_o righteousness_n of_o the_o law_n god_n accept_v they_o as_o i_o say_v afore_o but_o there_o be_v another_o high_a righteousness_n in_o god_n which_o surmount_v all_o creature_n in_o so_o much_o as_o no_o angel_n be_v able_a to_o satisfy_v it_o and_o no_o wonder_n at_o all_o for_o what_o comparison_n be_v there_o between_o a_o infinite_a thing_n and_o a_o thing_n that_o have_v bound_n behold_v although_o the_o angel_n have_v great_a glory_n in_o they_o yet_o be_v they_o but_o creature_n and_o what_o be_v god_n he_o be_v a_o infinite_a thing_n in_o so_o much_o that_o when_o we_o think_v upon_o he_o we_o ought_v to_o be_v ravish_v into_o astonishment_n so_o then_o let_v we_o not_o think_v it_o strange_a that_o god_n righteousness_n shall_v be_v so_o high_a that_o when_o all_o creature_n come_v to_o that_o point_n all_o that_o be_v to_o be_v find_v in_o they_o shall_v be_v nothing_o at_o all_o but_o they_o shall_v deserve_v to_o be_v utter_o wipe_v out_o therefore_o it_o be_v say_v here_o that_o god_n find_v no_o steadfastness_n in_o his_o angel_n that_o be_v to_o say_v if_o he_o list_v too_o use_v the_o say_v extreme_a examination_n toward_o the_o angel_n they_o must_v needs_o vanish_v away_o and_o all_o must_v needs_o be_v cast_v down_o and_o sink_v howbeit_o for_o as_o much_o as_o god_n be_v content_v to_o be_v honour_v and_o serve_v by_o they_o according_a to_o the_o rule_n that_o he_o have_v give_v we_o in_o his_o law_n they_o stand_v before_o his_o face_n and_o he_o avow_v they_o for_o righteous_a as_o they_o be_v in_o deed_n and_o try_v so_o to_o be_v but_o these_o be_v two_o diverse_a thing_n namely_o that_o god_n have_v a_o righteousness_n which_o he_o have_v measure_v after_o our_o capacity_n and_o yet_o come_v to_o such_o rigour_n as_o to_o say_v who_o be_v he_o that_o have_v attain_v to_o it_o now_o than_o we_o see_v that_o if_o we_o come_v before_o god_n there_o we_o shall_v be_v condemn_v and_o accurse_a and_o so_o far_o be_v we_o unable_a to_o stand_v upright_o that_o the_o very_a angel_n of_o heaven_n be_v confound_v there_o and_o why_o because_o the_o very_a heaven_n themselves_o be_v not_o clean_a for_o whereas_o god_n have_v create_v the_o sun_n to_o give_v light_n to_o the_o world_n and_o give_v some_o brightness_n to_o the_o star_n also_o it_o follow_v not_o therefore_o that_o they_o have_v a_o divine_a perfection_n we_o must_v remember_v what_o have_v be_v say_v afore_o namely_o that_o all_o the_o creature_n that_o god_n make_v do_v keep_v still_o some_o mark_n of_o his_o grace_n but_o if_o a_o man_n will_v compare_v that_o which_o be_v in_o the_o creature_n with_o that_o which_o be_v in_o god_n he_o shall_v find_v that_o the_o one_o be_v all_o and_o the_o other_o be_v nothing_o thus_o you_o see_v how_o the_o heaven_n be_v not_o clean_o that_o be_v to_o say_v that_o there_o be_v always_o some_o imperfection_n in_o the_o creature_n so_o as_o they_o have_v not_o the_o power_n to_o stand_v before_o god_n as_o in_o respect_n of_o the_o infinite_a glory_n that_o be_v in_o he_o and_o now_o it_o be_v say_v that_o see_v the_o case_n be_v such_o what_o shall_v become_v of_o man_n this_o be_v it_o that_o i_o have_v touch_v already_o namely_o that_o although_o god_n will_v examine_v we_o but_o after_o the_o mean_a righteousness_n which_o he_o have_v set_v forth_o in_o his_o law_n yet_o we_o shall_v all_o of_o we_o be_v find_v guilty_a and_o a_o universal_a damnation_n shall_v lie_v upon_o all_o mankind_n under_o the_o which_o we_o lie_v overthrow_v to_o be_v short_a behold_v how_o man_n be_v confute_v two_o way_n for_o if_o we_o will_v come_v to_o god_n with_o our_o head_n upright_o and_o go_v about_o to_o justify_v ourselves_o before_o he_o our_o confusion_n must_v needs_o appear_v so_o much_o the_o more_o for_o shall_v we_o be_v rightuous_a than_o the_o angel_n of_o heaven_n but_o we_o see_v there_o be_v no_o creature_n that_o be_v able_a to_o hold_v

in_o such_o wise_a as_o it_o may_v please_v god_n we_o see_v then_o what_o job_n intent_n be_v namely_o to_o show_v that_o he_o have_v endeavour_v to_o serve_v god_n and_o to_o walk_v with_o his_o

now_o than_o we_o see_v after_o what_o sort_n our_o life_n may_v be_v allowable_a afore_o god_n that_o be_v to_o wit_n when_o it_o be_v due_o refer_v to_o his_o law_n for_o god_n will_v not_o have_v

to_o this_o point_n that_o we_o shall_v live_v not_o after_o our_o own_o like_n but_o according_a as_o god_n have_v command_v again_o whereas_o under_o the_o word_n prayer_n here_o be_v mention_v

therefore_o ought_v we_o to_o mark_v thorough_o what_o be_v contain_v here_o that_o be_v to_o wit_n that_o by_o this_o word_n prayer_n job_n mean_v to_o show_v that_o he_o have_v serve_v god_n pure_o and_o so_o if_o man_n will_v now_o give_v proof_n of_o their_o uprightness_n let_v they_o not_o allege_v their_o gewgaw_n as_o the_o hypocrite_n be_v wont_a to_o do_v say_v have_v we_o not_o fast_v

that_o many_o do_v give_v the_o adventure_n to_o pray_v unto_o god_n although_o they_o be_v full_a of_o raven_a and_o have_v trouble_v one_o and_o torment_v a_o other_o yet_o cease_v they_o not_o to_o

though_o it_o be_v hide_v from_o they_o for_o a_o time_n when_o he_o show_v nothing_o but_o utter_a rigour_n against_o they_o therefore_o let_v we_o comfort_v ourselves_o in_o it_o and_o say_v yet_o

thus_o you_o see_v what_o our_o belief_n must_v be_v if_o it_o be_v well_o rule_v and_o if_o we_o be_v once_o so_o well_o dispose_v we_o may_v say_v with_o job_n well_o very_o i_o see_v my_o body_n

we_o see_v that_o our_o strength_n droup_v and_o vanish_v away_o by_o little_a and_o little_a that_o although_o it_o please_v god_n to_o smite_v we_o in_o such_o wise_a as_o we_o shall_v in_o manner_n

not_o cease_v look_v unto_o his_o god_n yet_o shall_v we_o not_o cease_v too_o trust_v in_o god_n still_o after_o the_o example_n of_o job._n thus_o you_o see_v that_o the_o greatness_n of_o the_o

say_v if_o we_o consider_v well_o to_o what_o end_n he_o have_v create_v we_o and_o still_o maintain_v we_o in_o the_o world_n furthermore_o when_o job_n say_v that_o he_o shall_v see_v his_o redeemer_n in_o his_o flesh_n his_o meaning_n be_v as_o i_o say_v afore_o that_o he_o shall_v be_v restore_v to_o a_o new_a state_n though_o his_o skin_n be_v so_o eat_v as_o it_o be_v for_o he_o

he_o see_v he_o in_o his_o flesh_n â–ª_o that_o be_v to_o say_v i_o shall_v be_v set_v in_o my_o former_a state_n and_o see_v my_o god_n yet_o again_o and_o so_o he_o confess_v that_o god_n be_v

therefore_o let_v we_o say_v i_o trust_v in_o god_n because_o i_o see_v he_o assist_v i_o and_o fail_v i_o not_o in_o any_o thing_n but_o when_o god_n fail_v we_o and_o be_v as_o it_o be_v estrange_v

of_o all_o other_o also_o of_o our_o own_o nature_n we_o do_v not_o easy_o abase_v ourselves_o in_o this_o behalf_n it_o behoove_v a_o man_n to_o be_v as_o it_o be_v bring_v too_o nothing_o that_o

shall_v not_o esteem_v of_o himself_o according_a also_o as_o in_o very_a truth_n we_o have_v no_o reason_n so_o too_o do_v and_o whosoever_o set_v by_o himself_o must_v needs_o be_v over_o blind_a

that_o he_o be_v bind_v unto_o he_o for_o they_o yea_o and_o that_o all_o the_o virtue_n which_o god_n give_v we_o be_v match_v with_o as_o many_o infirmity_n so_o as_o we_o can_v but_o cast_v down_o

and_o by_o that_o mean_n become_v rank_n traitor_n too_o he_o and_o moreover_o utter_o renounce_v the_o live_a god_n as_o it_o be_v say_v here_o true_o this_o be_v right_a hard_a at_o the_o first_o

of_o the_o earth_n and_o a_o rot_a carrion_n set_v so_o much_o by_o himself_o that_o god_n shall_v be_v abse_z too_o the_o intent_n that_o he_o shall_v be_v exalt_v be_v not_o this_o a_o mingle_n of_o

be_v it_o not_o a_o renounce_n of_o he_o for_o man_n acknowledge_v he_o no_o more_o too_o be_v such_o a_o one_o as_o he_o be_v but_o rather_o do_v utter_o disclaim_v he_o therefore_o let_v we_o mark_v well_o that_o it_o be_v impossible_a for_o man_n too_o advance_v and_o prefer_v themselves_o but_o it_o must_v needs_o be_v as_o a_o kind_n of_o renounce_v of_o god_n and_o here_o you_o see_v also_o why_o it_o be_v say_v in_o the_o psalm_n that_o we_o have_v song_n that_o the_o proud_a which_o stand_v upon_o their_o own_o virtue_n and_o strength_n trust_v thereunto_o and_o challenge_v so_o much_o too_o themselves_o as_o they_o think_v no_o harm_n may_v touch_v they_o do_v conclude_v in_o their_o heart_n that_o there_o be_v no_o god_n and_o too_o the_o uttermost_a of_o their_o power_n reject_v all_o religion_n true_a it_o be_v that_o they_o speak_v it_o not_o with_o their_o mouth_n but_o yet_o for_o all_o that_o it_o be_v so_o in_o deed_n for_o the_o holy_a ghost_n which_o search_v our_o privity_n declare_v that_o it_o be_v so_o and_o therefore_o let_v we_o learn_v too_o honour_n god_n and_o too_o put_v away_o this_o false_a imagination_n that_o all_o pride_n may_v be_v beat_v down_o in_o we_o for_o it_o be_v impossible_a that_o a_o man_n shall_v offer_v service_n unto_o god_n without_o humility_n and_o as_o i_o have_v say_v we_o can_v not_o be_v humble_a except_o we_o

sleep_n trouble_v they_o and_o also_o that_o he_o speak_v by_o chastisement_n it_o seem_v unto_o they_o that_o here_o be_v the_o two_o manner_n of_o speak_v unto_o we_o which_o god_n use_v so_o as_o sometime_o he_o reveal_v himself_o by_o inspiration_n and_o sometime_o also_o touch_v we_o with_o his_o hand_n but_o this_o be_v nothing_o to_o the_o purpose_n &_o it_o be_v a_o constrain_a sense_n furthermore_o we_o need_v not_o to_o beat_v our_o brain_n much_o in_o seek_v diversity_n of_o exposition_n see_v that_o the_o natural_a sense_n be_v manifest_a unto_o we_o therefore_o let_v we_o follow_v that_o which_o i_o have_v declare_v already_o which_o be_v that_o god_n shall_v speak_v once_o or_o twice_o yea_o and_o yet_o not_o be_v understand_v thus_o we_o know_v what_o eliu_n mean_v to_o say_v and_o now_o remain_v to_o apply_v the_o same_o to_o our_o instruction_n and_o how_o first_o of_o all_o by_o know_v our_o own_o slenderness_n for_o what_o be_v the_o cause_n that_o man_n take_v so_o high_o upon_o they_o to_o seek_v and_o search_v after_o such_o a_o sort_n as_o nothing_o may_v escape_v they_o but_o because_o they_o think_v themselves_o able_a enough_o too_o find_v out_o all_o thing_n but_o if_o a_o man_n be_v thorough_o well_o tame_v in_o such_o sort_n as_o he_o challenge_v nothing_o to_o himself_o he_o will_v be_v no_o more_o so_o proud_a and_o lofty_a to_o search_v god_n secret_n to_o far_o out_o of_o measure_n so_o then_o to_o the_o intent_n we_o may_v take_v profit_n of_o this_o text_n special_o first_o let_v we_o humble_v ourselves_o yea_o even_n by_o acknowledge_v that_o our_o understanding_n be_v to_o small_a and_o gross_a mark_v that_o for_o one_o point_n and_o on_o the_o other_o side_n let_v we_o consider_v also_o that_o god_n secret_a judgement_n be_v a_o dreadful_a dungeon_n that_o his_o way_n be_v incomprehensible_a and_o that_o it_o be_v not_o lawful_a for_o man_n to_o wade_v to_o far_o in_o they_o but_o must_v content_v themselves_o with_o that_o which_o he_o declare_v you_o see_v then_o that_o the_o second_o point_n which_o we_o have_v to_o mark_v be_v that_o when_o we_o think_v upon_o the_o highness_n of_o god_n we_o ought_v to_o be_v ravish_v to_o the_o honour_n of_o it_o &_o conclude_v that_o we_o must_v not_o take_v upon_o we_o to_o be_v able_a to_o know_v &_o comprehend_v all_o that_o be_v in_o he_o for_o whither_o be_v that_o to_o go_v we_o creep_v here_o upon_o the_o earth_n &_o we_o know_v that_o he_o far_o surmount_v the_o heaven_n then_o see_v it_o be_v so_o let_v we_o honour_v his_o secret_a judgement_n assure_v ourselves_o that_o he_o will_v always_o have_v authority_n to_o speak_v &_o utter_v what_o he_o list_v maugre_o all_o they_o that_o speak_v against_o he_o yea_o &_o that_o when_o he_o speak_v once_o or_o twice_o that_o be_v to_o say_v when_o he_o show_v his_o pleasure_n and_o will_n man_n shall_v know_v nothing_o of_o it_o because_o they_o be_v to_o rude_a to_o conceive_v the_o thing_n in_o one_o word_n which_o god_n have_v determine_v in_o his_o purpose_n but_o shall_v daily_o see_v one_o thing_n &_o yet_o not_o withstand_v be_v new_a to_o seek_v of_o it_o yea_o &_o still_o dazzle_v at_o it_o even_o at_o the_o end_n of_o a_o year_n or_o ten_o &_o although_o they_o have_v see_v one_o thing_n often_o yet_o the_o reason_n of_o it_o shall_v be_v hide_v from_o they_o be_v it_o not_o for_o the_o pride_n that_o be_v in_o we_o it_o be_v sufficient_o confirm_v unto_o we_o by_o experience_n that_o we_o never_o come_v to_o any_o reason_n but_o by_o compulsion_n &_o that_o we_o will_v always_o needs_o be_v selfwise_o even_o though_o our_o ignorance_n show_v itself_o enough_o &_o to_o much_o nevertheless_o it_o be_v not_o without_o cause_n that_o we_o be_v warn_v in_o this_o text_n that_o god_n will_v have_v his_o determination_n as_o it_o be_v bury_v &_o hide_v we_o see_v the_o effect_n of_o it_o daily_o &_o we_o know_v not_o what_o to_o say_v save_v that_o it_o be_v a_o wonderful_a thing_n &_o that_o it_o behoove_v we_o to_o bridle_v ourselves_o in_o wait_v till_o our_o lord_n revele_v it_o in_o great_a perfection_n which_o shall_v not_o be_v till_o we_o be_v bereave_v of_o this_o mortal_a flesh_n thus_o you_o see_v what_o we_o have_v to_o mark_v here_o and_o according_a to_o the_o article_n which_o i_o have_v touch_v already_o let_v we_o note_v also_o that_o here_o be_v no_o speak_v but_o of_o the_o judgement_n which_o god_n will_v have_v hide_v because_o it_o be_v not_o for_o our_o behoof_n to_o have_v full_a knowledge_n of_o they_o as_o yet_o it_o be_v say_v in_o the._n 62._o psalm_n that_o god_n speak_v once_o &_o david_n protest_v that_o he_o will_v bear_v it_o twice_o namely_o that_o there_o be_v might_n &_o mercy_n in_o god_n there_o be_v no_o treat_v of_o god_n wonderful_a judgement_n as_o there_o be_v here_o of_o what_o then_o of_o the_o thing_n that_o we_o learn_v by_o his_o word_n which_o be_v bring_v to_o our_o remembrance_n &_o set_v before_o we_o continual_o for_o on_o the_o one_o side_n god_n make_v we_o to_o feel_v his_o mighty_a power_n to_o the_o end_n we_o shall_v fear_v he_o &_o walk_n according_a to_o his_o will_n on_o the_o other_o side_n he_o give_v we_o his_o mercy_n to_o the_o end_n we_o shall_v take_v comfort_n &_o joy_n at_o it_o what_o learn_v we_o daily_o by_o god_n word_n but_o that_o he_o be_v the_o master_n to_o who_o it_o behove_v we_o to_o be_v subject_a &_o that_o we_o must_v not_o live_v after_o our_o own_o lust_n but_o that_o god_n must_v reign_v over_o we_o &_o his_o law_n be_v a_o bridle_n that_o we_o may_v be_v teach_v under_o it_o thus_o the_o first_o point_n be_v to_o serve_v god_n &_o to_o know_v what_o he_o require_v &_o allow_v the_o second_o be_v that_o we_o know_v he_o to_o be_v our_o father_n &_o saviour_n to_o the_o end_n to_o put_v our_o whole_a trust_n in_o he_o and_o how_o shall_v we_o know_v he_o by_o ground_v ourselves_o upon_o his_o mere_a mercy_n know_v that_o there_o be_v nothing_o but_o death_n and_o damnation_n in_o we_o and_o acknowledge_v that_o he_o have_v draw_v we_o out_o of_o death_n through_o his_o own_o mere_a goodness_n for_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n sake_n thus_o as_o concern_v this_o second_o point_n the_o two_o thing_n wherein_o it_o behove_v we_o to_o be_v confirm_v be_v that_o we_o must_v resort_v to_o he_o for_o resuge_a and_o also_o that_o forsomuch_o as_o his_o mercy_n be_v set_v before_o we_o daily_o we_o shall_v not_o doubt_v but_o that_o he_o will_v receive_v we_o so_o then_o this_o text_n of_o david_n speak_v not_o of_o the_o thing_n that_o be_v keep_v hide_v from_o our_o knowledge_n but_o of_o the_o thing_n that_o god_n intend_v to_o declare_v unto_o we_o and_o teach_v we_o therefore_o he_o say_v god_n have_v speak_v that_o be_v to_o say_v god_n have_v so_o manifest_v his_o will_n in_o his_o speak_n as_o man_n ought_v not_o to_o doubt_v any_o more_o nor_o to_o reply_v against_o that_o which_o he_o say_v i_o have_v hear_v it_o twice_o say_v he_o herein_o he_o betoken_v that_o it_o be_v not_o enough_o to_o have_v hear_v god_n at_o a_o glance_n but_o that_o it_o behoove_v we_o to_o mind_v the_o thing_n without_o cease_v which_o he_o speak_v and_o although_o he_o speak_v but_o once_o yet_o must_v we_o not_o let_v his_o doctrine_n slip_v but_o settle_v it_o thorough_o in_o our_o remembrance_n and_o learn_v to_o print_v it_o in_o our_o heart_n and_o think_v upon_o it_o early_o and_o late_o because_o our_o memory_n be_v short_a so_o then_o we_o see_v now_o that_o it_o be_v the_o duty_n of_o the_o faithful_a to_o apply_v themselves_o thorough_o to_o the_o hear_n of_o the_o thing_n that_o god_n show_v they_o by_o his_o word_n and_o to_o set_v their_o whole_a mind_n upon_o it_o assure_v themselves_o that_o god_n will_v give_v they_o the_o knowledge_n of_o the_o thing_n which_o he_o tell_v and_o promise_v they_o for_o their_o welfare_n mark_v that_o for_o one_o point_n howbeit_o heerewithall_o let_v we_o keep_v ourselves_o from_o seek_v any_o further_a and_o let_v we_o not_o covet_v to_o be_v wise_a than_o god_n will_v have_v we_o to_o be_v and_o how_o may_v that_o be_v by_o learning_n in_o his_o school_n and_o if_o he_o reserve_v any_o secret_a judgement_n to_o himself_o let_v we_o be_v ignorant_a in_o the_o thing_n that_o he_o will_v not_o have_v know_v unto_o we_o until_o he_o have_v take_v we_o out_o of_o the_o world_n as_o for_o example_n it_o be_v say_v unto_o we_o that_o god_n govern_v all_o thing_n by_o his_o providence_n and_o eliu_n speak_v too_o the_o same_o purpose_n here_o you_o see_v then_o that_o god_n
honour_n to_o put_v he_o in_o trust_n with_o it_o we_o shall_v find_v in_o the_o end_n that_o he_o have_v be_v a_o good_a and_o faithful_a keeper_n of_o it_o and_o therefore_o if_o it_o please_v he_o

to_o poor_a prisoner_n he_o have_v not_o do_v this_o in_o his_o own_o person_n only_o accomplish_v the_o say_a promise_n but_o he_o do_v it_o still_o also_o daily_o by_o his_o minister_n true_a it_o

he_o commit_v the_o same_o charge_n to_o all_o she_o peherde_n of_o his_o church_n you_o see_v then_o that_o the_o thing_n which_o we_o have_v to_o bear_v in_o mind_n when_o eliu_n show_v we_o the_o

believe_v that_o we_o be_v righteous_a and_o preach_v unto_o we_o our_o own_o virtue_n and_o merit_n no_o but_o the_o righteousness_n which_o he_o speak_v of_o here_o be_v that_o god_n be_v make_v at_o one_o with_o we_o and_o how_o be_v that_o because_o he_o impute_v not_o our_o sin_n any_o more_o unto_o we_o then_o be_v we_o righteous_a not_o in_o our_o self_n nor_o through_o our_o own_o

bring_v man_n own_a desert_n unto_o god_n and_o it_o imagine_v that_o although_o they_o have_v do_v amiss_o yet_o they_o be_v able_a to_o make_v he_o some_o amends_n behold_v thou_o common_a use_n

sacrifice_n which_o he_o have_v offer_v we_o be_v take_v and_o repute_v for_o righteous_a because_o the_o say_a sacrifice_n have_v the_o power_n to_o put_v away_o all_o fault_n and_o offence_n lo_o what_o it_o behove_v we_o too_o mark_v in_o this_o place_n therefore_o when_o so_o ever_o we_o read_v the_o holy_a scripture_n or_o come_v too_o a_o sermon_n when_o any_o promise_n of_o god_n goodness_n be_v set_v afore_o we_o let_v we_o assure_v ourselves_o that_o then_o god_n warrant_v his_o love_n towards_o we_o to_o the_o end_n we_o shall_v be_v deliver_v from_o death_n wherein_o we_o

that_o god_n will_v work_v in_o such_o wise_a by_o his_o power_n that_o the_o say_a doctrine_n shall_v be_v sufficient_a too_o deliver_v we_o from_o the_o damnation_n wherein_o we_o be_v and_o from_o the_o bondage_n of_o sin_n so_o as_o we_o shall_v pass_v out_o of_o the_o bond_n of_o satan_n and_o be_v set_v clear_a before_o god_n and_o this_o say_n namely_o what_o so_o ever_o you_o lose_v in_o

be_v all_o one_o as_o if_o his_o voice_n sound_v from_o heaven_n and_o in_o very_a deed_n saint_n james_n speak_v of_o private_a person_n say_v that_o he_o which_o warn_v his_o brother_n shall_v

have_v allege_v out_o of_o saint_n matthew_n to_o be_v short_a we_o see_v what_o the_o power_n of_o the_o gospel_n be_v when_o we_o receive_v the_o promise_n of_o it_o by_o faith_n namely_o that_o it_o be_v as_o much_o as_o if_o god_n shall_v reach_v we_o his_o hand_n from_o heaven_n too_o pull_v we_o out_o of_o the_o dungeon_n of_o death_n and_o herewithal_o let_v we_o mark_v for_o the_o three_o point_n that_o this_o be_v not_o do_v but_o by_o god_n ordinance_n and_o it_o serve_v for_o a_o difference_n between_o the_o gospel_n and_o the_o blasphemy_n of_o the_o pope_n for_o the_o pope_n uphold_v that_o he_o and_o his_o chaplain_n have_v the_o key_n of_o the_o kingdom_n of_o heaven_n and_o the_o office_n of_o forgive_a but_o what_o commission_n can_v they_o show_v for_o it_o for_o they_o tie_v the_o forgiveness_n of_o sin_n to_o shrift_n and_o where_o do_v god_n ever_o tell_v man_n that_o it_o behove_v man_n to_o shrive_v they_o of_o all_o their_o secret_n in_o the_o ear_n of_o a_o mortal_a man_n too_o obtain_v mercy_n god_n declare_v that_o if_o the_o sinner_n sigh_v for_o his_o sin_n he_o will_v be_v merciful_a to_o he_o but_o behold_v a_o mortal_a creature_n presume_v to_o make_v a_o law_n and_o to_o shut_v man_n out_o of_o paradyse_n if_o they_o observe_v it_o not_o be_v not_o that_o a_o notorious_a usurp_n of_o god_n power_n beside_o this_o the_o pope_n have_v his_o bulle●_n indulgence_n pardon_n and_o such_o other_o thing_n too_o ground_n the_o forgiveness_n of_o sin_n upon_o and_o therewithal_o he_o mingle_v the_o blood_n of_o martyr_n as_o he_o that_o mean_v express_o too_o deface_v the_o virtue_n of_o the_o death_n and_o passion_n of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n and_o yet_o notwithstanding_o in_o the_o mean_a while_o he_o have_v no_o promise_n of_o the_o gospel_n he_o have_v nothing_o but_o toy_n ceremony_n sorcery_n great_a cross_n upon_o the_o back_n and_o such_o other_o trash_n which_o in_o conclusion_n be_v nothing_o but_o satan_n gewgaw_n but_o contrariwise_o it_o be_v say_v that_o there_o can_v be_v no_o forgiveness_n of_o sin_n without_o god_n message_n that_o be_v too_o say_v without_o preach_v and_o doctrine_n when_o the_o pope_n forgive_v sin_n he_o be_v dumb_a he_o bring_v not_o one_o jot_n of_o god_n word_n neither_o have_v he_o any_o thing_n but_o charm_n and_o sorcery_n as_o be_v say_v afore_o moreover_o he_o lay_v tyrannous_a law_n upon_o man_n neck_n to_o overthrow_v the_o mean_a which_o our_o lord_n have_v ordain_v again_o he_o abridge_v god_n himself_o of_o his_o liberty_n and_o there_o be_v no_o let_v in_o he_o to_o disappoint_v god_n that_o he_o shall_v not_o receive_v sinner_n to_o mercy_n you_o see_v then_o that_o the_o popish_a church_n be_v the_o devil_n synagogue_n destitute_a of_o the_o forgiveness_n of_o sin_n and_o consequent_o damn_v so_o long_o as_o it_o hold_v itself_o too_o the_o tradition_n of_o antechrist_n for_o it_o be_v impossible_a that_o it_o shall_v be_v reconcile_v unto_o god_n but_o on_o the_o contrary_a part_n we_o say_v that_o man_n sin_n be_v forgive_v they_o by_o receive_v the_o message_n of_o the_o gospel_n and_o that_o the_o same_o have_v not_o to_o do_v with_o the_o ceremony_n that_o man_n have_v devise_v nor_o with_o the_o law_n which_o they_o have_v invent_v at_o their_o own_o pleasure_n but_o only_o that_o we_o must_v follow_v the_o order_n and_o rule_v which_o our_o lord_n jesus_n have_v establish_v who_o have_v the_o remission_n of_o sin_n in_o his_o hand_n he_o have_v give_v we_o a_o mean_a whereby_o he_o will_v have_v it_o do_v which_o be_v the_o preach_n of_o his_o gospel_n and_o the_o receive_n of_o it_o with_o assure_a faith_n therefore_o if_o we_o stick_v to_o that_o simplicity_n we_o may_v be_v sure_a that_o the_o commission_n come_v from_o above_o and_o that_o man_n take_v not_o ne_o usurp_v not_o any_o thing_n upon_o they_o of_o their_o own_o brain_n thus_o you_o see_v what_o we_o have_v to_o mark_v upon_o the_o word_n where_o it_o be_v say_v that_o god_n will_v pity_v he_o and_o deliver_v he_o then_o must_v every_o whit_n of_o it_o come_v from_o above_o and_o none_o but_o god_n only_o must_v

we_o have_v see_v already_o heretofore_o that_o the_o wretched_a sinner_n be_v near_o to_o the_o grave_n and_o that_o they_o be_v as_o good_a as_o dead_a and_o consume_v so_o long_o as_o god_n

because_o we_o have_v no_o settledness_n but_o be_v toss_v with_o unquietness_n yea_o even_o with_o boil_a unquietness_n so_o as_o we_o will_v have_v god_n to_o make_v haste_n according_a to_o our_o

so_o as_o god_n seem_v to_o thunder_v in_o such_o wise_n upon_o we_o as_o if_o he_o will_v overwhelm_v we_o it_o behove_v we_o to_o consider_v what_o his_o wrath_n be_v and_o that_o if_o he_o will_v

let_v we_o weigh_v well_o these_o word_n of_o eliu_n when_o he_o say_v that_o god_n present_v punish_v be_v nothing_o in_o respect_n of_o his_o wrath_n wherefore_o we_o must_v not_o say_v what_o the_o

in_o this_o world_n he_o shall_v find_v that_o in_o very_a deed_n all_o that_o can_v be_v lay_v upon_o we_o here_o be_v nothing_o to_o it_o now_o see_v that_o all_o be_v nothing_o and_o that_o god_n

shut_v their_o eye_n yet_o can_v they_o not_o bring_v to_o pass_v that_o god_n shall_v not_o set_v himself_o afore_o they_o and_o that_o his_o work_n shall_v not_o be_v know_v to_o they_o hereby_o we_o be_v warn_v that_o if_o any_o man_n know_v not_o god_n the_o same_o come_v not_o of_o simple_a ignorance_n but_o rather_o of_o stubborn_a wilfulness_n because_o he_o turn_v away_o from_o he_o for_o as_o i_o have_v say_v afore_o god_n work_n be_v to_o manifest_v unto_o we_o they_o show_v themselves_o every_o where_o and_o therefore_o we_o can_v not_o be_v ignorant_a of_o they_o except_o we_o listen_v ourselves_o in_o respect_n whereof_o it_o be_v say_v that_o man_n behold_v they_o a_o far_o off_o for_o this_o similitude_n import_v that_o they_o be_v so_o excellent_a and_o that_o there_o be_v such_o a_o greatness_n and_o majesty_n in_o they_o that_o although_o there_o be_v a_o far_a distance_n between_o they_o and_o we_o yet_o be_v we_o able_a to_o see_v they_o we_o know_v that_o if_o a_o man_n be_v far_o off_o from_o we_o our_o eye_n sight_n will_v not_o reach_v thither_o but_o it_o fade_v by_o the_o way_n or_o if_o there_o be_v a_o great_a castle_n it_o will_v seem_v to_o be_v but_o a_o little_a cabin_n if_o we_o look_v at_o it_o a_o far_o off_o and_o a_o whole_a town_n will_v seem_v to_o be_v but_o a_o two_o or_o three_o house_n thus_o do_v far_o distance_n diminish_v the_o outward_a appearance_n of_o thing_n which_o be_v great_a when_o we_o see_v they_o near_o at_o hand_n we_o have_v experience_n enough_o of_o it_o in_o the_o sun_n for_o it_o seem_v to_o be_v scarce_o two_o foot_n broad_a and_o yet_o notwithstanding_o if_o a_o man_n know_v the_o reason_n and_o the_o thing_n which_o the_o philosopher_n and_o those_o that_o be_v acquaint_v with_o the_o secret_n of_o nature_n do_v show_v he_o shall_v perceive_v that_o the_o sun_n be_v much_o great_a than_o the_o whole_a earth_n and_o here_o it_o be_v say_v express_o that_o man_n behold_v god_n work_v a_o far_o of_o how_o far_o off_o so_o far_o as_o our_o eye_n sight_n must_v needs_o be_v utter_o dazzle_v but_o yet_o as_o far_o of_o as_o it_o be_v we_o perceive_v how_o god_n work_v and_o therefore_o it_o follow_v that_o there_o be_v such_o a_o majesty_n in_o god_n work_v as_o we_o ought_v of_o duty_n to_o honour_v he_o therein_o now_o then_o let_v we_o mark_v that_o such_o as_o glorify_v not_o god_n as_o they_o shall_v do_v can_v not_o cloak_v themselves_o with_o ignorance_n for_o it_o be_v but_o a_o vain_a covert_n because_o his_o work_n can_v but_o be_v know_v unto_o they_o in_o so_o much_o that_o if_o we_o allege_v that_o our_o eye_n sight_n be_v too_o weak_a and_o that_o god_n work_v be_v too_o high_a for_o we_o it_o be_v to_o be_v reply_v that_o although_o god_n work_v be_v not_o nigh_o we_o yet_o we_o cease_v not_o too_o perceive_v they_o so_o far_o forth_o as_o be_v needful_a for_o the_o magnify_n of_o they_o and_o although_o our_o eyesight_n be_v

our_o mind_n too_o the_o know_v of_o the_o thing_n that_o god_n show_v we_o furthermore_o let_v we_o mark_v also_o that_o it_o behove_v we_o to_o know_v god_n and_o his_o work_n according_a too_o our_o own_o measure_n if_o he_o show_v himself_o a_o far_o of_o let_v we_o content_v ourselves_o therewith_o true_a it_o be_v that_o we_o may_v well_o desire_v to_o have_v he_o to_o come_v near_o we_o and_o on_o our_o part_n also_o it_o behove_v we_o too_o strain_v ourselves_o from_o day_n to_o day_n to_o have_v a_o more_o familiar_a and_o full_a knowledge_n of_o he_o and_o of_o his_o work_n but_o yet_o for_o all_o that_o we_o must_v walk_v in_o humility_n and_o if_o god_n listen_v not_o to_o be_v know_v to_o the_o full_a but_o only_o in_o part_n let_v we_o hold_v ourselves_o to_o that_o which_o please_v he_o and_o in_o the_o mean_a while_n as_o i_o say_v let_v we_o not_o play_v the_o purblind_a or_o starkblind_a bussard_n wilful_o but_o let_v we_o suffer_v god_n to_o show_v himself_o to_o we_o and_o when_o he_o have_v show_v himself_o and_o we_o know_v he_o let_v we_o honour_v he_o and_o yield_v he_o his_o deserve_a praise_n now_o herewithal_o eliu_n say_v that_o because_o god_n be_v great_a we_o know_v he_o not_o neither_o be_v there_o any_o number_n or_o account_v of_o his_o year_n this_o sentence_n shall_v seem_v to_o repugn_v that_o which_o i_o have_v say_v already_o for_o to_o know_v and_o not_o to_o know_v be_v thing_n utter_o contrary_a we_o see_v in_o the_o last_o verse_n that_o although_o god_n be_v far_o off_o from_o we_o yet_o notwithstanding_o his_o work_n be_v so_o great_a that_o we_o see_v they_o and_o now_o it_o be_v say_v that_o god_n can_v be_v know_v but_o by_o the_o know_v that_o be_v speak_v of_o here_o it_o be_v mean_v that_o we_o can_v

god_n be_v not_o know_v namely_o in_o that_o our_o capacity_n be_v too_o small_a to_o conceive_v and_o comprehend_v he_o yet_o notwithstanding_o his_o meaning_n be_v not_o to_o be_v utter_o hide_v from_o man_n for_o he_o show_v himself_o enough_o to_o be_v honour_v at_o their_o hand_n therefore_o this_o knowledge_n which_o we_o have_v of_o god_n be_v not_o to_o be_v able_a to_o determine_v of_o

of_o god_n also_o it_o be_v say_v that_o god_n make_v the_o cloud_n to_o labour_n to_o moisten_v the_o earth_n ▪_o namely_o as_o though_o they_o clyve_v asunder_o and_o empty_v themselves_o that_o

that_o be_v to_o wit_n that_o god_n be_v above_o to_o the_o end_n that_o as_o oft_o as_o we_o speak_v of_o he_o we_o may_v know_v that_o our_o sese_n shall_v fail_v we_o &_o vanish_v away_o a_o hundred_o time_n before_o we_o can_v come_v to_o that_o highness_n and_o that_o we_o must_v worship_v he_o humble_o conceive_v nothing_o else_o of_o he_o but_o as_o he_o have_v teach_v we_o by_o his_o word_n for_o that_o be_v all_o our_o wisdom_n and_o as_o i_o have_v say_v if_o this_o doctrine_n be_v well_o print_v in_o our_o heart_n the_o world_n shall_v be_v purge_v of_o all_o superstition_n that_o have_v always_o reign_v in_o it_o how_o happen_v it_o that_o man_n have_v so_o forge_a idol_n &_o think_v that_o god_n be_v not_o nigh_o they_o except_o they_o have_v some_o remembrance_n as_o they_o say_v or_o figure_n of_o he_o it_o be_v for_o that_o man_n take_v leave_v to_o comprehend_v god_n and_o to_o think_v of_o he_o that_o which_o be_v nothing_o so_o this_o be_v then_o the_o fountain_n of_o all_o superstition_n and_o when_o man_n do_v thus_o make_v they_o visible_a shape_n it_o be_v because_o they_o know_v not_o the_o highness_n of_o god_n nor_o his_o incomprehensible_a majesty_n and_o this_o be_v it_o that_o we_o be_v teach_v when_o the_o people_n of_o israel_n require_v to_o have_v some_o visible_a sign_n to_o represent_v god_n say_v we_o will_v have_v he_o go_v before_o we_o that_o be_v to_o say_v we_o will_v have_v he_o there_o as_o a_o subject_n unto_o we_o howbeit_o we_o must_v not_o so_o press_v unto_o god_n but_o as_o i_o have_v say_v we_o must_v reverence_v he_o with_o all_o humility_n and_o furthermore_o when_o man_n think_v too_o serve_v god_n after_o their_o own_o fashion_n and_o frame_v law_n for_o themselves_o say_v this_o will_v be_v good_a and_o such_o a_o thing_n will_v be_v acceptable_a unto_o god_n it_o be_v because_o they_o will_v make_v he_o like_a unto_o themselves_o as_o though_o he_o delight_v in_o all_o the_o small_a toy_n which_o they_o have_v invent_v that_o be_v to_o wit_n outward_a thing_n &_o so_o do_v they_o transform_v god_n as_o though_o they_o will_v pull_v he_o out_o of_o his_o heavenly_a seat_n to_o draw_v he_o down_o hither_o or_o as_o though_o he_o be_v a_o creature_n &_o a_o fleshly_a thing_n so_o then_o we_o see_v that_o all_o these_o fond_a devotion_n use_v in_o the_o papacy_n and_o term_v there_o the_o divine_a service_n spring_v of_o this_o namely_o that_o they_o know_v not_o the_o highness_n of_o god_n for_o then_o will_v they_o have_v conclude_v thus_o god_n be_v not_o delight_v in_o the_o thing_n that_o seem_v good_a in_o our_o own_o eye_n for_o he_o be_v of_o another_o nature_n than_o we_o be_v he_o be_v a_o spirit_n &_o therefore_o must_v we_o serve_v he_o after_o a_o clean_a contrary_a fashion_n unto_o that_o which_o please_v our_o nature_n neither_o must_v we_o in_o this_o case_n presume_v to_o attempt_v any_o thing_n of_o our_o own_o head_n but_o we_o have_v his_o law_n in_o which_o he_o have_v declare_v his_o will_n unto_o we_o he_o have_v prescribe_v we_o our_o rule_n let_v we_o hold_v we_o unto_o that_o this_o be_v the_o sobriety_n which_o god_n ▪_o require_v by_o his_o word_n &_o whereunto_o he_o will_v have_v we_o to_o submit_v ourselves_o without_o swerve_v any_o thing_n at_o all_o therefrom_o hereupon_o eliphas_n say_v behold_v the_o height_n of_o the_o star_n how_o high_a they_o be_v this_o be_v according_a to_o that_o which_o i_o have_v already_o say_v that_o be_v too_o wit_n that_o forasmuch_o as_o the_o creature_n here_o beneath_o do_v not_o move_v we_o sufficient_o to_o the_o fear_n and_o reverence_n of_o god_n we_o shall_v behold_v the_o sky_n for_o they_o be_v we_o the_o more_o lively_o touch_v true_a it_o be_v that_o it_o be_v too_o villainous_a a_o unthankfulness_n yea_o &_o a_o want_n of_o sense_n when_o we_o be_v not_o move_v to_o honour_n god_n though_o we_o open_v our_o eye_n but_o only_o to_o consider_v the_o thing_n that_o lie_v at_o our_o foot_n for_o do_v the_o earth_n bring_v forth_o so_o many_o fruit_n by_o his_o own_o strength_n the_o food_n that_o we_o receive_v thence_o come_v it_o of_o his_o own_o

that_o there_o be_v a_o god_n who_o he_o ought_v to_o worship_n but_o for_o asmuch_o as_o we_o be_v dull_a and_o gross_a head_a that_o do_v not_o great_o move_v we_o what_o must_v we_o do_v then_o to_o help_v such_o rudeness_n and_o infirmity_n let_v we_o look_v upon_o high_a &_o then_o must_v we_o needs_o be_v very_a brute_n beast_n if_o we_o be_v not_o move_v at_o the_o sight_n of_o the_o
