stand_v 5_o upon_o the_o shore_n it_o be_v no_o time_n for_o peter_n to_o play_v the_o fisherman_n but_o when_o christ_n have_v leave_v speak_v and_o command_v he_o to_o launch_v into_o the_o deep_a than_o it_o be_v time_n for_o peter_n to_o let_v down_o the_o net_n there_o be_v a_o time_n wherein_o we_o ought_v to_o labour_v in_o our_o vocation_n and_o a_o time_n wherein_o we_o ought_v to_o hear_v the_o word_n and_o as_o we_o may_v not_o utter_o neglect_v our_o lawful_a calling_n to_o follow_v sermon_n so_o must_v we_o not_o bestow_v the_o sabbath_n which_o be_v consecrate_v to_o the_o service_n of_o god_n in_o follow_v the_o work_n of_o our_o vocation_n all_o thing_n have_v their_o appoint_a time_n say_v the_o wise_a man_n eccle._n 3._o and_o every_o thing_n be_v seemly_a in_o his_o convenient_a season_n but_o when_o thing_n be_v do_v preposterous_o and_o out_o of_o order_n there_o follow_v confusion_n although_o martha_n do_v not_o hear_v christ_n yet_o do_v she_o labour_v for_o christ_n many_o in_o our_o day_n will_v neither_o labour_n for_o christ_n nor_o hear_v of_o christ_n but_o as_o the_o israelite_n be_v weary_a of_o their_o 21_o journey_n in_o the_o wilderness_n and_o loathe_v that_o heavenly_a manna_n so_o these_o man_n be_v weary_a of_o every_o godly_a exercise_n and_o be_v soon_o cloy_v with_o the_o word_n of_o god_n the_o five_o foolish_a virgin_n waste_v their_o oil_n to_o no_o purpose_n and_o while_o they_o go_v to_o buy_v be_v exclude_v the_o marriage_n 25_o and_o these_o foolish_a man_n spend_v this_o time_n of_o grace_n vain_o and_o wanton_o as_o though_o after_o this_o life_n there_o be_v no_o time_n of_o justice_n and_o vengeance_n to_o be_v fear_v the_o day_n serve_v for_o their_o pride_n or_o profit_n the_o night_n be_v spend_v in_o

world_n that_o eat_v and_o drink_v that_o marry_v wife_n and_o give_v in_o marriage_n while_o 6_o noah_n be_v prepare_v the_o ark_n for_o the_o save_n of_o his_o household_n and_o as_o baal_n priest_n wound_v themselves_o to_o serve_v 18_o their_o idol_n so_o these_o man_n take_v dangerous_a course_n and_o strange_o trouble_v themselves_o to_o serve_v the_o devil_n now_o martha_n find_v herself_o aggrieve_v and_o begin_v to_o envy_v her_o sister_n exercise_n as_o joseph_n brethren_n envy_v he_o for_o 17_o his_o dream_n and_o the_o son_n of_o ishai_n that_o disdain_v their_o brother_n david_n for_o his_o forwardness_n in_o the_o combat_n with_o goliath_n these_o two_o sister_n that_o in_o other_o thing_n agree_v so_o well_o together_o in_o this_o do_v differ_v so_o much_o that_o christ_n must_v have_v the_o hear_n of_o the_o matter_n and_o decide_v the_o controversy_n martha_n play_v the_o plaintiff_n and_o accuse_v her_o sister_n marry_o the_o defendant_n answer_v by_o her_o

sister_n slothfulness_n and_o seem_v after_o a_o sort_n to_o blame_v our_o saviour_n for_o wink_v at_o it_o require_v he_o to_o see_v the_o matter_n redress_v speedy_o but_o christ_n first_o reprove_v marthaes_n curiosity_n and_o then_o excuse_v yea_o and_o commend_v mary_n care_n in_o martha_n it_o appear_v how_o willing_a we_o be_v to_o please_v ourselves_o in_o our_o own_o conceit_n and_o how_o ready_a to_o conceive_v amiss_o of_o other_o do_n yea_o sometime_o to_o prefer_v our_o own_o defect_n before_o the_o perfection_n of_o other_o man_n if_o david_n chasten_v his_o soul_n with_o fast_v

call_v he_o a_o friend_n and_o companion_n of_o publican_n and_o sinner_n among_o we_o if_o there_o be_v any_o that_o be_v more_o forward_o in_o religion_n than_o the_o rest_n and_o more_o diligent_a to_o hear_v the_o word_n as_o marie_n be_v there_o shall_v not_o want_v some_o or_o other_o to_o censure_v they_o at_o their_o pleasure_n yea_o to_o find_v fault_n &_o to_o condemn_v they_o for_o so_o do_v yet_o be_v not_o the_o godly_a to_o be_v discourage_v herewith_o or_o to_o desist_v from_o their_o godly_a exercise_n for_o as_o the_o lord_n answer_v for_o marie_n when_o she_o hold_v her_o peace_n so_o the_o lord_n will_v defend_v their_o cause_n and_o take_v their_o part_n against_o their_o adversary_n the_o lord_n can_v abide_v to_o hear_v his_o servant_n ill_o speak_v of_o but_o be_v always_o ready_a to_o maintain_v their_o right_n and_o to_o answer_v for_o they_o he_o will_v not_o suffer_v labernele_n a_o to_o speak_v a_o ill_a word_n to_o his_o servant_n jacob_n and_o if_o aaron_n &_o miriam_n murmur_n 12_o against_o moses_n the_o lord_n will_v punish_v it_o with_o leprosy_n what_o a_o comfortable_a thing_n be_v this_o to_o the_o gadly_a that_o y_o e_o king_n of_o king_n will_v take_v their_o part_n and_o will_v not_o suffer_v they_o to_o sustain_v any_o wrong_n he_o be_v a_o most_o sure_a and_o trusty_a friend_n that_o will_v not_o abide_v his_o friend_n to_o be_v backbit_v or_o ill_o speak_v of_o but_o either_o he_o will_v answer_v in_o their_o defence_n or_o he_o will_v find_v some_o mean_n to_o stop_v their_o mouth_n and_o restrain_v the_o slanderous_a tongue_n of_o their_o enemy_n as_o sometime_o he_o stop_v balaams_n passage_n 22._o when_o he_o go_v to_o curse_v his_o people_n &_o cause_v the_o dumb_a beast_n to_o speak_v and_o to_o reprove_v the_o madness_n of_o the_o prophet_n 1●_n rather_o than_o he_o will_v have_v his_o people_n to_o be_v curse_v the_o repetition_n of_o marthaes_n name_n argue_v the_o vehemency_n and_o earnestness_n of_o this_o admonition_n the_o lord_n be_v fain_o to_o be_v very_o earnest_a and_o importunate_a with_o we_o before_o he_o can_v reclaim_v us._n so_o when_o god_n speak_v unto_o abraham_n he_o call_v 2d_o he_o twice_o by_o name_n christ_n call_v peter_n thrice_o by_o name_n john_n 21._o to_o cause_v he_o make_v his_o threefold_n confession_n to_o make_v amends_n for_o his_o threefold_n denial_n and_o when_o the_o lord_n speak_v unto_o samuel_n he_o call_v he_o 4._o several_a time_n by_o 3_o name_n before_o he_o answer_v for_o such_o be_v the_o great_a mercy_n of_o god_n that_o he_o be_v content_a to_o admonish_v we_o often_o of_o our_o duty_n &_o such_o be_v the_o dulness_n &_o perverseness_n of_o our_o crooked_a nature_n that_o we_o can_v be_v gain_v by_o the_o first_o admonition_n but_o the_o lord_n must_v call_v we_o often_o &_o earnest_o before_o we_o will_v hearken_v unto_o he_o there_o be_v two_o thing_n in_o this_o speech_n of_o christ_n to_o be_v observe_v the_o first_o be_v his_o modest_a reprehension_n of_o marthaes_n immoderate_a care_n the_o other_o be_v his_o friendly_a defence_n of_o mary_n choice_n though_o martha_n be_v very_o careful_a to_o entertain_v christ_n in_o the_o best_a manner_n yet_o if_o he_o perceive_v any_o thing_n in_o her_o worthy_a of_o reprehension_n he_o will_v not_o stick_v to_o tell_v she_o of_o it_o he_o will_v not_o soothe_v she_o in_o her_o say_n nor_o smooth_v she_o in_o her_o own_o conceit_n for_o all_o the_o trouble_n and_o cost_n that_o she_o bestow_v upon_o he_o if_o we_o be_v often_o invite_v to_o some_o man_n table_n and_o kind_o entertain_v it_o will_v be_v unkind_o take_v if_o we_o shall_v find_v fault_n with_o any_o disorder_n but_o for_o as_o much_o as_o all_o christ_n his_o action_n be_v the_o instruction_n of_o christian_n therefore_o every_o christian_a but_o especial_o preacher_n who_o it_o more_o special_o concern_v must_v learn_v by_o this_o example_n how_o to_o behave_v themselves_o when_o they_o be_v invite_v to_o great_a feast_n namely_o to_o speak_v their_o conscience_n free_o when_o they_o see_v a_o fault_n the_o best_a requital_n that_o we_o can_v make_v for_o our_o good_a cheer_n be_v to_o give_v good_a counsel_n and_o wholesome_a admonition_n to_o they_o that_o invite_v us._n when_o christ_n dine_v with_o the_o pharisie_n luke_n 11._o and_o be_v mislike_v for_o not_o wash_v before_o dinner_n he_o take_v
of_o their_o blessing_n now_o we_o will_v speak_v of_o the_o father_n and_o after_o of_o his_o child_n then_o say_v moses_n noah_n begin_v to_o be_v a_o husbandman_n this_o be_v the_o first_o name_n which_o be_v give_v to_o noah_n after_o the_o flood_n he_o be_v call_v a_o husbandman_n and_o the_o first_o work_n which_o be_v mention_v be_v the_o plant_n of_o a_o vineyard_n one_o will_v think_v when_o all_o man_n be_v drown_v with_o the_o flood_n and_o none_o leave_v alive_a to_o possess_v the_o earth_n but_o noah_n and_o his_o son_n that_o he_o shall_v have_v find_v himself_o something_a else_o to_o do_v then_o to_o plant_v vineyard_n and_o that_o the_o holy_a ghost_n shall_v have_v entitle_v he_o king_n of_o the_o world_n and_o not_o a_o husbandman_n of_o the_o earth_n see_v there_o be_v no_o such_o man_n as_o noah_n be_v which_o have_v more_o in_o his_o hand_n than_o any_o king_n have_v in_o the_o world_n or_o shall_v have_v to_o the_o world_n end_n but_o hereby_o the_o holy_a ghost_n will_v show_v that_o god_n do_v not_o respect_n king_n for_o their_o title_n nor_o man_n for_o their_o riches_n as_o we_o do_v &_o therefore_o he_o name_v noah_n after_o the_o work_n which_o he_o do_v not_o after_o the_o possession_n which_o he_o have_v a_o husbandman_n it_o seem_v that_o there_o be_v great_a diversity_n between_o this_o age_n and_o we_o for_o if_o we_o shall_v see_v now_o a_o king_n go_v to_o plough_v a_o nobleman_n to_o drive_v the_o team_n a_o gentleman_n keep_v sheep_n he_o shall_v be_v scorn_v for_o his_o labour_n more_o than_o noah_n be_v for_o his_o drunkenness_n yet_o when_o we_o read_v how_o this_o monarch_n of_o the_o world_n think_v no_o scorn_n to_o play_v the_o husbandman_n we_o consider_v not_o his_o princely_a call_n nor_o his_o ancient_a year_n nor_o his_o large_a possession_n to_o commend_v his_o industry_n or_o modesty_n or_o lowly_a mind_n therein_o which_o may_v teach_v we_o humility_n though_o we_o learn_v to_o disdain_v husbandry_n of_o who_o will_v we_o learn_v to_o be_v humble_a if_o king_n give_v example_n and_o the_o son_n of_o god_n humble_v himself_o from_o heaven_n to_o earth_n and_o yet_o we_o contemn_v the_o example_n of_o the_o king_n of_o the_o earth_n and_o the_o example_n of_o the_o king_n of_o heaven_n the_o time_n be_v when_o adam_n dig_v and_o delve_v when_o david_n keep_v sheep_n and_o all_o the_o house_n of_o jacob_n be_v call_v man_n occupy_v about_o cattle_n but_o as_o they_o for_o this_o be_v abominable_a to_o the_o egyptian_n as_o moses_n say_v in_o the_o same_o verse_n so_o they_o which_o do_v like_o they_o be_v abhor_v of_o their_o brethren_n and_o they_o which_o live_v by_o they_o scorn_v they_o for_o their_o work_n which_o will_v be_v chasten_v themselves_o because_o they_o work_v not_o there_o be_v no_o art_n nor_o science_n which_o be_v so_o much_o set_v by_o in_o former_a time_n and_o be_v now_o profitable_a to_o the_o commonwealth_n bring_v less_o profit_n unto_o herself_o that_o may_v so_o justly_o complain_v of_o her_o fall_n without_o cause_n and_o her_o despite_n from_o they_o which_o live_v by_o she_o as_o this_o painful_a science_n of_o husbandry_n that_o it_o be_v marvel_n that_o any_o man_n will_v take_v pain_n for_o the_o rest_n to_o be_v contemn_v for_o his_o labour_n and_o be_v a_o scorn_n for_o the_o rest_n which_o may_v hunger_n and_o starve_v if_o he_o do_v not_o labour_n for_o they_o more_o than_o they_o do_v themselves_o no_o marvel_n then_o though_o many_o in_o the_o poor_a country_n murmur_n and_o complain_v that_o other_o can_v live_v by_o they_o and_o they_o can_v live_v themselves_o but_o it_o be_v marvel_n if_o their_o complaint_n do_v not_o grow_v in_o time_n to_o rebellion_n and_o pull_v other_o as_o low_a as_o themselves_o for_o why_o shall_v the_o great_a pain_n yield_v the_o less_o profit_n yet_o this_o be_v their_o case_n for_o if_o you_o mark_v you_o shall_v see_v that_o the_o husbandman_n do_v bate_v the_o price_n of_o his_o fruit_n so_o soon_o as_o the_o dearth_n be_v past_a though_o he_o raise_v it_o a_o little_a while_o the_o dearth_n last_v but_o they_o which_o raise_v the_o price_n of_o their_o ware_n with_o he_o seldom_o fall_v again_o but_o make_v man_n pay_v as_o dear_a when_o the_o dearth_n be_v past_a as_o if_o it_o be_v a_o dearth_n still_o thus_o a_o plentiful_a year_n do_v damage_v he_o and_o a_o hard_a year_n do_v vantage_v they_o so_o this_o painful_a man_n be_v fain_o to_o live_v poor_o fare_v mean_o go_v bare_o house_n homely_a rise_v early_o labour_v daily_o sell_v cheap_a and_o buy_v dear_a that_o i_o may_v true_o say_v that_o no_o man_n deserve_v his_o live_n better_a no_o man_n fulfil_v the_o law_n near_o that_o be_v thou_o shall_v get_v thy_o live_n in_o the_o sweat_n of_o thy_o brow_n then_o this_o poor_a son_n of_o adam_n which_o pick_v his_o crumb_n out_o of_o the_o earth_n therefore_o he_o shall_v not_o be_v mock_v for_o his_o labour_n which_o have_v vexation_n enough_o though_o all_o man_n speak_v well_o of_o he_o and_o in_o my_o opinion_n if_o any_o deserve_v to_o be_v love_v for_o his_o innocency_n or_o for_o his_o truth_n or_o his_o pain_n or_o the_o
