unsufficient_a proof_n be_v convict_v the_o king_n sentence_v they_o to_o be_v throw_v down_o headlong_o from_o the_o top_n of_o a_o high_a tower._n they_o cry_v out_o that_o they_o be_v to_o die_v innocent_o and_o the_o king_n ear_n be_v shut_v against_o their_o just_a defence_n they_o summon_v the_o king_n within_o thirty_o day_n to_o appear_v and_o answer_v to_o the_o high_a god_n for_o

call_v a_o famous_a writer_n and_o worthy_a of_o belief_n of_o burchardus_fw-la bishop_n of_o halberstad_n who_o enter_v into_o a_o unjust_a controversy_n with_o the_o abbot_n of_o helverden_n about_o

to_o god_n tribunal_n there_o to_o be_v judge_v to_o these_o i_o can_v have_v add_v many_o more_o of_o this_o kind_n such_o as_o the_o famous_a story_n of_o the_o templar_n at_o bordeaux_n of_o radulphus_fw-la duke_n of_o austria_n and_o the_o like_a but_o then_o i_o must_v have_v exceed_v the_o proportion_n of_o this_o paragraph_n therefore_o i_o shall_v now_o only_o take_v notice_n of_o a_o passage_n that_o look_v that_o way_n in_o the_o holy_a scripture_n and_o that_o be_v of_o moses_n in_o the_o case_n of_o corah_n and_o his_o complice_n it_o be_v very_o like_o a_o appeal_n to_o

practice_n and_o so_o the_o appealant_o can_v not_o have_v promise_v themselves_o any_o assurance_n of_o those_o extraordinary_a event_n upon_o their_o provocation_n and_o therefore_o it_o have_v be_v and_o ought_v always_o to_o be_v question_v whether_o it_o may_v be_v allowable_a or_o lawful_a ordinary_o to_o imitate_v the_o practice_n of_o such_o appeal_n and_o for_o this_o i_o shall_v not_o

prove_v that_o god_n almighty_a will_n at_o one_o time_n or_o other_o administer_v impartial_a justice_n and_o judgement_n to_o all_o mankind_n i_o shall_v present_o make_v a_o near_a approach_n towards_o the_o conclusion_n for_o a_o future_a world_n existence_n upon_o the_o account_n of_o this_o argument_n be_v i_o not_o oblige_v to_o consider_v whether_o almighty_a god_n do_v not_o execute_v such_o administration_n of_o his_o justice_n to_o the_o good_a and_o evil_a in_o and_o with_o respect_n to_o this_o present_a life_n and_o as_o to_o that_o enquiry_n the_o second_o chapter_n be_v concern_v chap._n ii_o in_o this_o chapter_n i_o be_o concern_v to_o offer_v to_o examination_n whether_o or_o no_o almighty_a god_n do_v not_o execute_v or_o permit_v the_o execution_n on_o justice_n and_o judgement_n to_o mankind_n according_a to_o the_o different_a qualification_n of_o their_o life_n and_o action_n in_o this_o present_a life_n and_o this_o enquiry_n will_v occasion_v three_o distinct_a section_n design_v for_o several_a debate_n in_o every_o one_o of_o which_o something_o will_v be_v improve_v for_o the_o better_a illustrate_v the_o reasson_n of_o the_o argument_n in_o the_o first_o section_n will_v be_v manage_v the_o matter_n of_o fact_n and_o therein_o it_o will_v be_v evidence_v that_o the_o administration_n of_o justice_n and_o judgement_n to_o the_o good_a and_o evil_a be_v not_o impartial_o execute_v in_o this_o world._n in_o the_o second_o will_v be_v offer_v to_o observation_n what_o a_o influence_n the_o sense_n of_o that_o omission_n have_v upon_o the_o mind_n of_o the_o heathen_a world._n in_o the_o three_o a_o occasion_n will_v be_v take_v to_o offer_v reason_n why_o the_o imperfect_a apprehension_n that_o be_v general_o have_v of_o the_o state_n of_o the_o dead_a and_o of_o the_o manner_n of_o god_n management_n of_o his_o justice_n in_o the_o other_o world_n do_v not_o at_o all_o invalidate_n the_o belief_n of_o its_o real_a existence_n nor_o of_o the_o certainty_n of_o god_n make_v a_o impartial_a completion_n of_o his_o universal_a justice_n and_o judgement_n to_o the_o good_a and_o evil_a in_o that_o state_n section_n i._o first_o in_o this_o section_n i_o be_o engage_v to_o represent_v that_o universal_a justice_n be_v not_o impartial_o do_v to_o all_o mankind_n according_a to_o the_o different_a qualification_n of_o their_o life_n and_o action_n in_o this_o their_o present_a existence_n but_o if_o it_o be_v allege_v that_o the_o notoreity_n of_o the_o fact_n and_o a_o more_o general_a consent_n in_o the_o case_n be_v sufficient_a to_o supersede_n the_o offering_n of_o any_o thing_n that_o be_v explanatory_a to_o confirm_v the_o truth_n of_o it_o my_o answer_n be_v that_o as_o i_o can_v foresee_v what_o evasion_n my_o attendant_a sceptic_n may_v suggest_v to_o elude_v the_o plain_a presumptives_n so_o i_o be_o willing_a as_o i_o shall_v do_v all_o along_o to_o indulge_v such_o as_o be_v already_o believer_n with_o the_o clear_a explanation_n of_o the_o case_n if_o not_o the_o more_o full_o to_o assure_v they_o yet_o the_o more_o lively_a to_o represent_v to_o they_o the_o attest_v truth_n of_o their_o own_o observation_n and_o for_o that_o end_n i_o shall_v take_v leave_n to_o trouble_v the_o common_a reader_n with_o some_o authoritative_a testimony_n and_o to_o avoid_v redundancy_n i_o shall_v produce_v but_o two_o only_a of_o every_o sort_n first_o i_o shall_v offer_v the_o scriptural_a sense_n of_o the_o case_n and_o that_o only_o as_o it_o be_v represent_v by_o two_o prophet_n of_o god_n who_o by_o their_o interrogatory_n manner_n of_o speak_v do_v more_o strong_o confirm_v that_o matter_n of_o fact._n as_o why_o do_v the_o way_n of_o the_o wicked_a prosper_v 1._o wherefore_o be_v they_o happy_a that_o deal_v treacherous_o say_v the_o one_o and_o wherefore_o bold_a thou_o thy_o tongue_n say_v the_o other_o when_o the_o wicked_a devour_v the_o man_n that_o be_v more_o righteous_a than_o he_o 13._o to_o which_o i_o may_v easy_o have_v add_v innumerable_a more_o if_o i_o can_v have_v think_v it_o necessary_a or_o any_o way_n reasonable_a in_o this_o case_n as_o to_o our_o modern_a theist_n second_o i_o shall_v subjoin_v the_o sense_n of_o two_o father_n of_o the_o christian_a religion_n the_o first_o be_v that_o of_o athenagoras_n the_o anicent_a apollogist_n and_o he_o undertake_v a_o argument_n for_o the_o assure_a belief_n of_o a_o future_a judgement_n because_o say_v he_o we_o have_v see_v many_o wicked_a man_n that_o have_v study_v all_o their_o life_n to_o do_v all_o manner_n of_o unjust_a thing_n 61._o and_o yet_o never_o meet_v with_o any_o evil_n to_o afflict_v they_o here_o when_o other_o of_o approve_a virtue_n have_v waste_v away_o their_o life_n in_o sorrow_n vexation_n reproach_n and_o all_o kind_n of_o calamity_n the_o next_o be_v salvian_n who_o in_o his_o book_n of_o providence_n seem_v to_o alarm_n the_o reader_n be_v wonder_n prov._n say_v if_o all_o thing_n in_o the_o world_n do_v depend_v upon_o the_o care_n and_o government_n of_o god_n why_o be_v the_o condition_n of_o the_o barbarian_n much_o better_a than_o we_o that_o be_v christian_n why_o do_v the_o good_a meet_v a_o hard_a portion_n in_o this_o life_n than_o those_o that_o be_v wicked_a and_o if_o my_o sceptic_a reader_n to_o
