lord_n be_v eternal_a and_o this_o third_o heaven_n have_v always_o be_v the_o place_n of_o the_o lord_n abode_n and_o therefore_o it_o be_v also_o eternal_a answer_n true_a it_o be_v that_o god_n do_v show_v his_o glory_n and_o majesty_n in_o the_o third_o heaven_n but_o yet_o that_o can_v obtain_v his_o godhead_n as_o solomon_n say_v behold_v the_o heaven_n and_o the_o heaven_n of_o heaven_n be_v not_o able_a to_o contain_v thou_o 8.27_o wherefore_o though_o god_n do_v manifest_v his_o eternal_a glory_n in_o this_o third_o heaven_n yet_o it_o do_v not_o follow_v that_o therefore_o it_o shall_v be_v eternal_a for_o he_o need_v no_o place_n to_o dwell_v in_o for_o he_o be_v every_o where_o fill_v all_o thing_n with_o his_o presence_n exclude_v from_o no_o place_n the_o second_o question_n where_o this_o third_o heaven_n be_v answer_n there_o be_v some_o protestant_n say_v it_o be_v every_o where_o and_o they_o hold_v this_o opinion_n to_o maintain_v the_o real_a presence_n of_o the_o lord_n body_n in_o or_o about_o the_o sacrament_n but_o if_o it_o be_v every_o where_n than_o hell_n shall_v be_v in_o heaven_n which_o no_o man_n will_v say_v but_o heaven_n indeed_o be_v above_o these_o visible_a heaven_n which_o we_o see_v with_o our_o eye_n so_o the_o apostle_n say_v 3.7.10_o christ_n ascend_v on_o high_a far_o above_o all_o heaven_n etc._n etc._n and_o again_o it_o be_v say_v of_o steven_n that_o be_v full_a of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n he_o look_v up_o steadfast_o into_o the_o heaven_n 56._o and_o see_v they_o open_a and_o the_o son_n of_o man_n stand_v at_o the_o right_a hand_n of_o god_n three_o it_o may_v be_v demand_v why_o god_n create_v this_o third_o heaven_n answer_n god_n make_v it_o for_o this_o cause_n that_o there_o may_v be_v a_o certain_a place_n wherein_o he_o may_v make_v manifest_a his_o glory_n and_o majesty_n to_o his_o elect_a angel_n and_o man_n for_o the_o which_o cause_n it_o be_v create_v a_o thousand_o fold_n more_o glorious_a than_o the_o two_o former_a heaven_n be_v in_o which_o respect_n it_o be_v call_v paradise_n 23._o by_o reason_n of_o the_o joy_n and_o pleasure_n arise_v from_o god_n glorious_a presence_n and_o our_o saviour_n christ_n call_v it_o the_o house_n of_o god_n his_o father_n 14.2_o because_o into_o it_o must_v be_v gather_v all_o god_n child_n it_o be_v call_v the_o kingdom_n of_o heaven_n because_o god_n be_v the_o king_n thereof_o and_o rule_v there_o in_o perfect_a glory_n true_a it_o be_v god_n have_v his_o kingdom_n here_o on_o earth_n but_o he_o rule_v not_o so_o full_o and_o glorious_o here_o as_o he_o shall_v in_o heaven_n for_o this_o be_v the_o kingdom_n of_o grace_n but_o that_o be_v the_o kingdom_n of_o his_o glory_n where_o he_o so_o reign_v that_o he_o will_v be_v all_o in_o all_o first_o in_o christ_n and_o then_o in_o the_o elect_a both_o angel_n and_o man_n now_o follow_v the_o duty_n whereunto_o we_o be_v move_v principal_o in_o consideration_n of_o the_o make_n of_o the_o three_o heaven_n first_o if_o god_n create_v it_o especial_o for_o the_o manifestation_n of_o his_o glory_n unto_o man_n that_o at_o the_o end_n of_o this_o world_n by_o the_o fruition_n of_o god_n most_o glorious_a presence_n there_o they_o may_v have_v perfect_a joy_n and_o felicity_n we_o have_v occasion_n here_o to_o consider_v the_o wonderful_a madness_n of_o the_o world_n that_o reign_v every_o where_n among_o man_n which_o only_o have_v regard_n to_o the_o state_n of_o this_o life_n and_o cast_v all_o their_o care_n on_o this_o world_n and_o never_o so_o much_o as_o dream_v of_o the_o joyful_a and_o bless_a estate_n which_o be_v prepare_v for_o god_n child_n in_o the_o high_a heaven_n if_o a_o man_n have_v two_o house_n one_o but_o a_o homely_a cottage_n and_o the_o other_o a_o princely_a palace_n shall_v leave_v the_o better_a and_o take_v all_o the_o care_n and_o pain_n for_o the_o dress_n up_o of_o the_o first_o will_v not_o every_o man_n say_v he_o be_v a_o mad_a man_n yes_o undoubted_o and_o yet_o this_o be_v the_o spiritual_a madness_n that_o reign_v every_o where_n among_o man_n for_o god_n have_v prepare_v for_o we_o two_o house_n one_o be_v this_o our_o body_n which_o we_o bear_v about_o we_o which_o be_v a_o house_n of_o clay_n as_o job_n say_v we_o dwell_v in_o house_n of_o clay_n who_o foundation_n be_v dust_n 4.19_o which_o shall_v be_v destroy_v before_o the_o moth_n 1.14_o and_o as_o peter_n say_v a_o tabernacle_n or_o tent_n which_o we_o must_v short_o take_v down_o and_o wherein_o we_o abide_v but_o as_o pilgrim_n and_o stranger_n 2.12_o again_o the_o same_o god_n of_o his_o wonderful_a goodness_n have_v provide_v for_o we_o a_o second_o house_n in_o the_o three_o heaven_n wherein_o we_o must_v not_o abide_v for_o a_o time_n and_o so_o depart_v but_o for_o evermore_o enjoy_v the_o bless_a felicity_n of_o his_o glorious_a presence_n for_o all_o this_o mark_v a_o spiritual_a frenzy_n possess_v the_o mind_n of_o man_n for_o they_o employ_v all_o their_o care_n and_o industry_n for_o the_o maintain_n of_o this_o house_n of_o clay_n who_o foundation_n be_v but_o dust_n but_o for_o the_o bless_a estate_n of_o the_o second_o house_n which_o be_v prepare_v for_o they_o in_o the_o kingdom_n of_o heaven_n they_o have_v no_o regard_n or_o care_n they_o will_v both_o run_v and_o ride_v from_o place_n to_o place_n day_n and_o night_n both_o by_o sea_n and_o land_n but_o for_o what_o be_v it_o for_o the_o prepare_n of_o a_o mansion_n place_n in_o the_o heavenly_a jerusalem_n nothing_o less_o for_o they_o will_v scarce_o go_v forth_o of_o the_o door_n to_o use_v any_o mean_n whereby_o they_o may_v come_v unto_o it_o but_o all_o their_o study_n be_v to_o patch_v up_o the_o ruin_n and_o breach_n of_o their_o earthly_a cabbine_n now_o let_v all_o man_n judge_v in_o their_o own_o conscience_n whether_o as_o i_o have_v say_v this_o be_v not_o more_o than_o senseless_a madness_n again_o the_o body_n be_v but_o a_o tabernacle_n wherein_o we_o must_v rest_v as_o it_o be_v for_o a_o night_n as_o a_o stranger_n do_v in_o a_o inn_n and_o so_o away_o but_o the_o second_o house_n be_v eternal_a in_o the_o heaven_n a_o everlasting_a seat_n of_o all_o felicity_n and_o therefore_o our_o duty_n be_v above_o all_o thing_n to_o seek_v the_o kingdom_n of_o heaven_n and_o the_o righteousness_n thereof_o as_o christ_n himself_o bid_v we_o 6.33_o and_o if_o the_o lord_n have_v there_o prepare_v such_o a_o place_n for_o we_o than_o we_o must_v in_o this_o world_n use_v all_o

and_o the_o holy_a ghost_n but_o some_o may_v say_v how_o shall_v a_o man_n so_o prepare_v himself_o that_o he_o may_v be_v fit_n for_o that_o place_n answer_n this_o the_o holy_a ghost_n teach_v we_o for_o speak_v of_o this_o heavenly_a jerusalem_n he_o say_v there_o shall_v enter_v into_o it_o none_o unclean_a thing_n neither_o whatsoever_o work_v abomination_n or_o lie_n 22._o the_o mean_n

say_v 3.4_o every_o one_o that_o have_v this_o hope_n purify_v himself_o meaning_n that_o he_o which_o have_v hope_n to_o reign_v with_o christ_n in_o heaven_n use_v the_o mean_n whereby_o he_o may_v purify_v and_o keep_v himself_o from_o sin_n as_o also_o he_o say_v after_o that_o he_o which_o be_v bear_v of_o god_n keep_v himself_o and_o the_o wicked_a one_o touch_v he_o not_o signify_v 5.18_o that_o all_o such_o person_n as_o be_v true_o justify_v and_o sanctify_v carry_v such_o a_o narrow_a and_o straight_o watch_v over_o the_o whole_a course_n of_o their_o life_n and_o conversation_n that_o the_o devil_n can_v never_o give_v they_o deadly_a wound_n and_o whole_o overcome_v they_o now_o the_o man_n that_o be_v resolve_v in_o his_o conscience_n of_o the_o pardon_n of_o his_o sin_n for_o the_o time_n past_a and_o have_v a_o steadfast_a purpose_n in_o his_o heart_n to_o keep_v himself_o upright_o and_o continual_o to_o walk_v in_o righteousness_n and_o true_a holiness_n all_o the_o day_n
of_o his_o life_n this_o man_n i_o say_v be_v prepare_v and_o make_v fit_n to_o enter_v into_o the_o heavenly_a jerusalem_n come_v death_n when_o it_o will_v he_o be_v ready_a and_o howsoever_o he_o must_v not_o look_v for_o heaven_n here_o upon_o earth_n yet_o he_o be_v as_o it_o be_v in_o the_o suburb_n of_o this_o heavenly_a city_n and_o at_o the_o end_n of_o this_o life_n the_o king_n thereof_o the_o lord_n jesus_n will_v open_v the_o gate_n and_o receive_v he_o into_o his_o kingdom_n for_o he_o be_v already_o enter_v into_o the_o kingdom_n of_o grace_n be_v prepare_v also_o one_o day_n when_o god_n will_v to_o enter_v into_o the_o kingdom_n of_o glory_n to_o conclude_v this_o point_n let_v every_o man_n in_o the_o fear_n of_o god_n be_v move_v hereby_o to_o set_v his_o heart_n to_o prepare_v himself_o that_o when_o god_n shall_v call_v he_o hence_o he_o may_v be_v fit_n to_o enter_v into_o that_o glory_n second_o see_v god_n have_v prepare_v the_o third_o heaven_n for_o we_o it_o teach_v every_o man_n in_o this_o world_n to_o be_v content_a with_o the_o estate_n wherein_o god_n have_v place_v he_o whether_o it_o be_v high_a or_o low_o rich_a or_o poor_a why_o so_o because_o here_o he_o be_v but_o a_o pilgrim_n and_o life_n in_o a_o cottage_n of_o clay_n and_o in_o a_o tent_n wherein_o he_o must_v abide_v but_o a_o while_n as_o a_o pilgrim_n do_v oftentimes_o carry_v his_o house_n about_o with_o he_o and_o we_o shall_v in_o better_a sort_n accept_v the_o affliction_n which_o god_n send_v we_o in_o this_o life_n if_o we_o remember_v that_o there_o be_v prepare_v for_o we_o a_o place_n of_o joy_n which_o must_v be_v our_o rest_a place_n and_o perfect_a felicity_n for_o evermore_o this_o be_v the_o practice_n of_o the_o child_n of_o god_n especial_o of_o abraham_n for_o when_o the_o lord_n call_v he_o out_o of_o his_o own_o country_n he_o obey_v and_o by_o faith_n abode_n in_o the_o promise_a land_n 10._o as_o in_o a_o strange_a country_n as_o one_o that_o dwell_v in_o tent_n with_o isaac_n and_o jaakob_n heir_n with_o he_o in_o the_o same_o promise_n and_o the_o reason_n follow_v for_o he_o look_v for_o a_o city_n have_v a_o foundation_n who_o builder_n and_o maker_n be_v god_n they_o believe_v that_o these_o thing_n which_o the_o lord_n promise_v be_v shadow_n of_o better_a thing_n and_o hereon_o stay_v themselves_o be_v well_o content_a with_o that_o estate_n whereto_o god_n have_v call_v they_o so_o paul_n be_v content_v to_o bear_v the_o affliction_n which_o god_n have_v lay_v upon_o he_o and_o his_o reason_n be_v 1.2_o because_o say_v he_o we_o look_v not_o on_o thing_n which_o be_v see_v but_o on_o thing_n which_o be_v not_o see_v for_o the_o thing_n which_o be_v see_v be_v temporal_a but_o the_o thing_n which_o be_v not_o see_v be_v eternal_a and_o in_o the_o next_o chapter_n we_o know_v say_v he_o that_o if_o our_o earthly_a house_n of_o this_o tabernacle_n be_v destroy_v we_o have_v a_o dwell_v give_v we_o of_o god_n that_o be_v a_o house_n not_o make_v with_o hand_n but_o eternal_a in_o the_o heaven_n and_o for_o this_o cause_n his_o desire_n be_v rather_o to_o remove_v out_o of_o this_o body_n and_o to_o be_v with_o the_o lord_n and_o thus_o much_o concern_v heaven_n now_o follow_v the_o second_o part_n of_o god_n creation_n in_o these_o word_n and_o earth_n earth_n signify_v the_o huge_a mass_n

two_o good_a angel_n and_o men._n i._o that_o angel_n have_v a_o beginning_n it_o be_v no_o question_n for_o paul_n say_v 1●_n that_o by_o god_n all_o thing_n be_v create_v in_o heaven_n and_o earth_n thing_n visible_a and_o invisible_a whether_o throne_n principality_n or_o power_n and_o in_o respect_n of_o the_o creation_n angel_n be_v call_v the_o son_n of_o god_n 38.7_o but_o the_o time_n &_o

the_o compass_n of_o the_o first_o six_o day_n the_o heaven_n and_o the_o earth_n be_v fashion_v and_o all_o the_o host_n of_o they_o that_o be_v all_o variety_n of_o creature_n in_o heaven_n and_o earth_n serve_v for_o the_o beauty_n and_o glory_n thereof_o whereof_o no_o doubt_n the_o angel_n be_v the_o principal_a ii_o touch_v the_o nature_n of_o angel_n some_o have_v think_v that_o they_o be_v nothing_o but_o quality_n &_o motion_n in_o the_o mind_n of_o man_n as_o the_o sadducee_n and_o the_o libertine_n of_o this_o time_n but_o the_o truth_n be_v that_o they_o be_v spirit_n that_o be_v spiritual_a and_o invisible_a substance_n create_v by_o god_n and_o real_o subsist_v for_o the_o scripture_n ascribe_v unto_o they_o such_o kind_n of_o action_n which_o can_v not_o be_v perform_v by_o the_o creature_n save_v only_o such_o as_o be_v substance_n as_o to_o stand_v before_o the_o throne_n of_o god_n to_o behold_v the_o face_n of_o the_o father_n to_o carry_v man_n soul_n to_o

that_o they_o may_v the_o better_o perform_v the_o action_n &_o business_n among_o man_n to_o which_o they_o be_v by_o god_n appoint_v and_o the_o body_n of_o man_n which_o they_o assume_v be_v no_o

come_v to_o the_o handle_n of_o the_o part_n thereof_o for_o it_o be_v not_o say_v bare_o that_o god_n be_v a_o creator_n but_o particular_o that_o he_o be_v a_o creator_n of_o heaven_n &_o earth_n of_o both_o which_o we_o will_v speak_v in_o order_n and_o first_o of_o the_o creation_n of_o heaven_n heaven_n in_o god_n word_n it_o signify_v all_o that_o be_v above_o the_o earth_n for_o the_o

three_o heaven_n the_o first_o of_o these_o heaven_n be_v that_o space_n 12.2_o which_o be_v from_o the_o earth_n upward_o unto_o the_o firmament_n where_o the_o star_n be_v thus_o we_o read_v often_o in_o the_o psalm_n the_o bird_n which_o fly_v in_o the_o air_n between_o the_o earth_n and_o the_o star_n be_v call_v the_o fowl_n of_o the_o heaven_n and_o when_o god_n send_v the_o flood_n to_o

the_o sun_n the_o moon_n 1.14_o and_o the_o star_n and_o place_v they_o in_o the_o firmament_n of_o heaven_n beside_o these_o two_o heaven_n there_o be_v a_o third_o which_o be_v invisible_a and_o yet_o it_o be_v the_o work_n of_o god_n hand_n and_o it_o be_v that_o glorious_a place_n where_o christ_n in_o his_o manhood_n sit_v at_o the_o right_a hand_n of_o the_o father_n and_o whether_o the_o

joy_n and_o bliss_n in_o the_o glorious_a sight_n and_o presence_n of_o god_n for_o ever_o but_o for_o the_o better_a conceive_v the_o truth_n we_o be_v to_o scan_v and_o consider_v three_o question_n first_o whether_o this_o three_o heaven_n be_v a_o creature_n for_o many_o have_v think_v it_o be_v never_o create_v but_o be_v eternal_a with_o god_n himself_o but_o it_o be_v a_o gross_a error_n contrary_a to_o god_n word_n 11.10_o for_o the_o scripture_n say_v abraham_n look_v for_o a_o city_n mean_v the_o heavenly_a jerusalem_n this_o third_o heaven_n have_v a_o foundation_n who_o builder_n and_o maker_n be_v god_n further_n if_o it_o be_v eternal_a it_o must_v either_o be_v a_o creator_n or_o a_o creature_n but_o it_o be_v no_o creator_n for_o than_o it_o shall_v be_v god_n and_o therefore_o it_o must_v needs_o be_v a_o creature_n but_o some_o will_v say_v the_o
god_n over_o his_o creature_n but_o especial_o over_o man_n in_o that_o the_o lord_n create_v he_o the_o six_o day_n and_o so_o before_o he_o be_v make_v prepare_v for_o he_o a_o paradise_n for_o his_o dwell_n and_o all_o creature_n both_o for_o his_o use_n and_o comfort_n and_o if_o he_o be_v thus_o careful_a for_o we_o when_o we_o be_v not_o than_o no_o doubt_n he_o will_v be_v much_o more_o careful_a for_o we_o at_o this_o present_a in_o which_o we_o live_v and_o have_v be_v nay_o mark_v further_o since_o the_o fall_n man_n eat_v and_o drink_v in_o quantity_n a_o great_a deal_n which_o in_o common_a reason_n shall_v rather_o kill_v he_o then_o turn_v to_o the_o strength_n and_o nourishment_n of_o his_o body_n yet_o herein_o do_v the_o wonderful_a power_n of_o the_o creator_n most_o notable_o appear_v who_o have_v make_v man_n stomach_n as_o a_o limbeck_n or_o still_o to_o digest_v all_o meat_n that_o be_v wholesome_a for_o his_o nourishment_n and_o preservation_n and_o thus_o much_o for_o the_o creation_n now_o in_o these_o word_n maker_n of_o heaven_n and_o earth_n be_v more_o to_o be_v understand_v then_o the_o work_n of_o creation_n namely_o god_n providence_n in_o govern_v all_o thing_n create_v as_o he_o appoint_v in_o his_o eternal_a decree_n and_o therefore_o saint_n peter_n say_v god_n be_v a_o faithful_a creator_n that_o be_v god_n do_v not_o only_o make_v heaven_n and_o earth_n and_o so_o leave_v they_o as_o mason_n and_o carpenter_n leave_v house_n when_o they_o be_v build_v but_o by_o his_o providence_n do_v most_o wise_o govern_v the_o same_o now_o therefore_o let_v we_o come_v to_o speak_v of_o god_n providence_n and_o first_o of_o all_o the_o question_n offer_v itself_o to_o be_v consider_v whether_o there_o be_v any_o providence_n of_o god_n or_o no_o for_o the_o mind_n of_o man_n be_v trouble_v with_o many_o doubt_n hereof_o and_o to_o make_v the_o question_n out_o of_o all_o doubt_n i_o will_v use_v four_o argument_n to_o confirm_v the_o providence_n of_o god_n the_o first_o be_v the_o testimony_n of_o the_o scripture_n which_o ascribe_v the_o event_n of_o all_o particular_a action_n even_o such_o as_o be_v in_o themselves_o casual_a as_o the_o cast_n of_o lot_n and_o such_o like_a to_o the_o disposition_n of_o god_n 16.33_o which_o also_o teach_v that_o even_a man_n themselves_o which_o be_v endue_v with_o reason_n and_o understanding_n have_v need_n to_o be_v guide_v in_o all_o thing_n and_o govern_v by_o god_n 10.23_o and_o blame_v those_o that_o deny_v god_n providence_n why_o say_v thou_o o_o jacob_n and_o speak_v o_o israel_n my_o way_n be_v hide_v from_o the_o lord_n 40.27_o &_o my_o judgement_n be_v pass_v over_o by_o my_o god_n the_o second_o argument_n may_v be_v take_v from_o the_o order_n which_o appear_v in_o the_o whole_a course_n of_o nature_n first_o to_o begin_v with_o family_n there_o be_v to_o be_v see_v a_o eutaxy_n or_o seemly_a order_n in_o which_o some_o rule_n &_o some_o obey_v &_o the_o like_a be_v to_o be_v find_v in_o town_n city_n country_n and_o kingdom_n yea_o even_o in_o the_o whole_a world_n in_o which_o all_o thing_n be_v so_o dispose_v that_o one_o serve_v for_o the_o good_a of_o another_o tree_n and_o herb_n and_o grass_n of_o the_o field_n serve_v for_o beast_n and_o cattle_n and_o beast_n and_o cattle_n serve_v for_o man_n the_o heaven_n above_o serve_v for_o they_o which_o be_v beneath_o and_o all_o the_o creature_n which_o be_v above_o and_o beneath_o serve_v for_o god_n this_o argue_v that_o god_n be_v most_o wise_a and_o provident_a in_o order_v and_o dispose_v all_o thing_n whatsoever_o the_o three_o argument_n be_v take_v from_o the_o conscience_n special_o of_o malefactor_n suppose_v a_o man_n that_o commit_v a_o murder_n so_o close_o that_o no_o man_n know_v thereof_o and_o that_o the_o party_n himself_o be_v free_a from_o all_o the_o danger_n of_o law_n yet_o shall_v he_o have_v his_o own_o conscience_n to_o accuse_v upbraid_v and_o condemn_v he_o yea_o even_o to_o fraught_v he_o out_o of_o his_o wit_n and_o to_o give_v he_o no_o more_o rest_n than_o he_o can_v find_v upon_o the_o rack_n or_o gibbet_n now_o this_o accusation_n and_o terror_n of_o conscience_n be_v nothing_o else_o but_o the_o forerunner_n of_o a_o other_o most_o terrible_a judgement_n of_o god_n who_o be_v lord_n of_o all_o creature_n and_o judge_n of_o all_o man_n and_o this_o also_o prove_v the_o providence_n of_o god_n for_o if_o the_o conscience_n can_v find_v a_o man_n out_o and_o lay_v his_o fault_n to_o his_o charge_n how_o much_o more_o shall_v god_n himself_o the_o creator_n of_o the_o conscience_n see_v and_o consider_v all_o his_o do_n the_o four_o and_o last_o argument_n be_v this_o the_o prophecy_n of_o thing_n to_o come_v shall_v be_v uncerten_a or_o false_a if_o god_n govern_v not_o the_o world_n but_o now_o consider_v thing_n many_o year_n ago_o foretell_v come_v to_o pass_v in_o the_o same_o manner_n as_o they_o be_v foretell_v by_o the_o prophet_n and_o apostle_n hereby_o we_o must_v certain_o conclude_v that_o there_o be_v a_o providence_n of_o god_n whereby_o all_o &_o every_o thing_n be_v govern_v against_o the_o providence_n of_o god_n sundry_a thing_n be_v allege_v the_o first_o and_o special_a be_v that_o providence_n and_o disorder_n confusion_n and_o order_n can_v not_o stand_v together_o now_o in_o the_o world_n there_o be_v nothing_o but_o disorder_n and_o confusion_n in_o sedition_n treason_n conspiracy_n and_o subversion_n of_o kingdom_n where_o also_o sin_n and_o wickedness_n prevail_v answer_n it_o be_v true_a indeed_o there_o have_v be_v confusion_n in_o the_o world_n ever_o since_o the_o fall_n of_o man_n and_o angel_n and_o it_o arise_v not_o from_o god_n but_o from_o

consider_v we_o look_v for_o life_n everlasting_a after_o this_o life_n we_o must_v not_o deceive_v ourselves_o linger_a and_o defer_v the_o time_n till_o the_o last_o gasp_n but_o we_o must_v lay_v

that_o our_o saviour_n christ_n in_o that_o parable_n intend_v not_o to_o set_v forth_o the_o equality_n of_o celestial_a glory_n 20.9_o and_o what_o shall_v be_v the_o estate_n of_o the_o godly_a after_o this_o life_n but_o the_o very_a drift_n of_o the_o parable_n be_v to_o show_v that_o they_o which_o be_v call_v first_o have_v no_o cause_n to_o brag_v or_o insult_v over_o other_o which_o
