the_o less_o seem_v their_o prayer_n and_o their_o hope_n to_o take_v effect_n every_o day_n be_v they_o more_o and_o more_o afflict_a every_o day_n there_o be_v less_o and_o less_o hope_n leave_v wherefore_o this_o similitude_n be_v well_o apply_v unto_o they_o in_o that_o they_o be_v compare_v to_o a_o ground_n which_o be_v continual_o plough_v wherein_o such_o furrow_n be_v draw_v as_o seem_v to_o have_v no_o end_n as_o though_o there_o be_v no_o god_n which_o either_o see_v their_o calamity_n or_o the_o impiety_n and_o outrageous_a cruelty_n of_o the_o enemy_n of_o the_o word_n he_o signify_v therefore_o that_o they_o have_v need_n of_o continual_a patience_n not_o for_o a_o day_n or_o two_o but_o all_o the_o day_n of_o their_o life_n so_o that_o they_o which_o have_v the_o word_n must_v assure_o purpose_v and_o determine_v never_o to_o depart_v from_o god_n although_o they_o shall_v suffer_v the_o same_o affliction_n a_o thousand_o year_n together_o how_o many_o have_v we_o see_v in_o these_o our_o day_n which_o have_v fall_v away_o yea_o and_o such_o also_o as_o sometime_o do_v stand_v when_o the_o fruit_n of_o the_o word_n be_v hinder_v through_o persecution_n like_v as_o the_o sun_n dri_v up_o and_o wither_v the_o corn_n that_o be_v sow_o in_o a_o stony_a ground_n wherefore_o we_o must_v learn_v that_o the_o patience_n of_o the_o faithful_a as_o it_o be_v in_o this_o verse_n describe_v be_v such_o as_o be_v ready_a to_o offer_v their_o back_n unto_o the_o plower_n and_o to_o suffer_v not_o for_o a_o day_n nor_o for_o a_o year_n but_o for_o the_o time_n of_o their_o whole_a life_n for_o he_o compare_v affliction_n to_o the_o long_o plough_v on_o the_o back_n of_o the_o faithful_a like_a as_o our_o saviour_n christ_n also_o signify_v when_o he_o say_v he_o that_o continue_v to_o the_o end_n shall_v be_v save_v for_o to_o begin_v be_v not_o enough_o and_o that_o patience_n which_o have_v her_o bound_n and_o limit_n prescribe_v may_v be_v find_v even_o among_o the_o gentile_n but_o the_o patience_n of_o christian_n be_v perpetual_a that_o be_v to_o say_v such_o a_o patience_n as_o seem_v to_o be_v infinite_a and_o without_o end_n for_o the_o end_n thereof_o do_v not_o appear_v like_o as_o on_o the_o other_o side_n the_o end_n of_o their_o consolation_n appear_v not_o so_o that_o those_o thing_n which_o seem_v to_o be_v most_o contrary_a be_v here_o join_v together_o that_o be_v to_o say_v the_o length_n and_o the_o long_a continuance_n of_o the_o furrow_n on_o the_o back_n of_o the_o faithful_a and_o the_o victory_n of_o the_o faithful_a sing_v of_o those_o which_o drive_v the_o blow_n they_o can_v not_o prevail_v morever_o this_o great_a and_o long_a continuance_n of_o the_o furrow_n on_o the_o back_n of_o the_o faithful_a include_v such_o a_o offence_n as_o no_o carnal_a wisdom_n be_v able_a to_o overcome_v namely_o that_o the_o wicked_a do_v not_o only_o prosper_v but_o their_o felicity_n also_o continue_v long_a so_o that_o it_o seem_v to_o be_v as_o a_o reward_n of_o their_o tyranny_n their_o persecution_n and_o malice_n against_o the_o church_n for_o if_o god_n will_v suffer_v their_o tyranny_n but_o for_o a_o little_a time_n and_o speedy_o reward_v they_o according_a to_o their_o desert_n we_o shall_v all_o then_o say_v that_o god_n be_v mindful_a of_o his_o child_n and_o angry_a with_o the_o wicked_a but_o now_o since_o impiety_n and_o wickedness_n flourish_v many_o year_n together_o and_o the_o wicked_a still_o continue_v and_o increase_v in_o great_a felicity_n without_o punishment_n the_o same_o be_v verify_v of_o they_o which_o diogenes_n say_v of_o harpalus_n that_o they_o seem_v to_o give_v a_o lively_a testimony_n against_o the_o go_n yea_o the_o godly_a be_v so_o vehement_o tempt_v through_o this_o long_a continuance_n and_o fall_v so_o far_o that_o they_o think_v god_n have_v no_o regard_n of_o they_o wherefore_o we_o must_v so_o arm_v ourselves_o with_o christian_a patience_n that_o albeit_o we_o feel_v the_o tedious_a and_o long_a continuance_n of_o these_o furrow_n we_o be_v not_o therefore_o offend_v but_o when_o one_o tentation_n be_v overcome_v we_o must_v prepare_v ourselves_o to_o another_o for_o our_o back_n must_v be_v always_o ready_a to_o bear_v the_o long_a continuance_n of_o these_o furrow_n this_o be_v the_o first_o part_n of_o the_o psalm_n in_o the_o which_o he_o confess_v the_o divine_a miracle_n and_o miraculous_a power_n of_o god_n whereby_o he_o preserve_v his_o child_n not_o only_o against_o the_o world_n but_o also_o against_o sin_n death_n and_o the_o devil_n and_o praise_v god_n for_o that_o he_o give_v victory_n to_o those_o that_o be_v overcome_v and_o put_v those_o to_o flight_n which_o do_v overcome_v this_o joyful_a end_n and_o this_o success_n he_o will_v we_o to_o look_v and_o wait_v for_o and_o exhort_v we_o to_o patience_n now_o he_o turn_v himself_o to_o prayer_n and_o not_o only_o pray_v but_o also_o promise_v to_o the_o enemy_n of_o the_o gospel_n that_o although_o they_o obstinate_o continue_v in_o afflict_v the_o faithful_a without_o check_n or_o punishment_n yet_o shall_v their_o ruin_n and_o overthrow_n be_v such_o that_o they_o shall_v never_o rise_v again_o as_o experience_n do_v show_v for_o i_o pray_v you_o what_o kingdom_n from_o the_o begin_n of_o the_o world_n have_v always_o continue_v and_o prosper_v the_o place_n and_o space_n of_o the_o earth_n do_v remain_v void_a and_o desolate_a and_o the_o kingdom_n be_v go_v as_o though_o they_o have_v never_o be_v again_o the_o cruelty_n and_o tyranny_n of_o the_o kingdom_n of_o the_o world_n be_v never_o so_o great_a that_o it_o be_v able_a to_o oppress_v the_o church_n for_o the_o church_n still_o continue_v and_o shall_v continue_v to_o the_o end_n of_o the_o world_n as_o follw_v verse_n 4._o the_o righteous_a lord_n have_v cut_v the_o cord_n of_o the_o wicked_a these_o word_n be_v so_o full_a of_o consolation_n that_o to_o the_o child_n of_o god_n in_o their_o calamity_n and_o affliction_n nothing_o can_v be_v more_o comfortable_a for_o they_o know_v that_o no_o munition_n no_o furniture_n of_o war_n can_v be_v so_o strong_a first_o of_o all_o therefore_o weigh_v and_o consider_v why_o he_o call_v the_o lord_n righteous_a and_o you_o shall_v see_v that_o he_o so_o do_v because_o that_o when_o a_o man_n consider_v according_a to_o the_o judgement_n of_o the_o flesh_n the_o thing_n which_o be_v here_o do_v and_o how_o god_n govern_v and_o rule_v the_o same_o it_o seem_v not_o otherwise_o but_o that_o he_o be_v unrighteous_a and_o unjust_a in_o support_v the_o tyranny_n of_o the_o wicked_a with_o great_a riches_n power_n dignity_n etc._n etc._n when_o reason_n see_v this_o it_o can_v judge_v nothing_o else_o but_o that_o if_o there_o be_v a_o god_n he_o be_v unjust_a for_o first_o of_o all_o thus_o do_v reason_n gather_v if_o there_o be_v a_o god_n he_o be_v able_a to_o resist_v the_o wicked_a and_o utter_o to_o destroy_v they_o for_o to_o be_v a_o god_n be_v to_o be_v almighty_a again_o thus_o carnal_a reason_n argue_v if_o there_o be_v a_o god_n he_o must_v needs_o know_v those_o thing_n which_o be_v do_v in_o the_o world_n for_o it_o can_v be_v say_v of_o god_n that_o he_o be_v ignorant_a of_o any_o thing_n now_o what_o else_o follow_v hereof_o but_o that_o if_o god_n know_v these_o thing_n to_o be_v cruel_o and_o unjust_o do_v and_o he_o be_v able_a to_o resist_v they_o he_o ought_v also_o to_o be_v no_o less_o willing_a to_o do_v the_o same_o for_o if_o we_o think_v that_o he_o will_v not_o do_v that_o which_o he_o know_v and_o be_v able_a to_o do_v it_o must_v follow_v that_o he_o be_v not_o good_a but_o evil_a not_o just_a but_o unjust_a now_o lay_v these_o thing_n together_o if_o god_n have_v power_n wisdom_n and_o goodness_n in_o he_o if_o he_o be_v able_a to_o help_v if_o he_o know_v how_o and_o also_o be_v willing_a to_o help_v why_o be_v all_o these_o thing_n do_v and_o govern_v in_o the_o world_n in_o such_o sort_n that_o the_o wicked_a have_v power_n riches_n &_o dignity_n as_o a_o reward_n of_o their_o impiety_n and_o contrariwise_o the_o godly_a for_o their_o piety_n and_o godliness_n be_v many_o way_n and_o most_o cruel_o afflict_v all_o these_o thing_n be_v a_o lively_a testimony_n against_o god_n as_o before_o we_o say_v of_o diogenes_n this_o argument_n of_o epicurus_n and_o such_o like_a atheist_n be_v to_o the_o flesh_n invincible_a wherefore_o reason_n be_v altogether_o blind_v and_o wrap_v in_o these_o snare_n
