from_o we_o and_o that_o we_o have_v need_v of_o wing_n to_o fly_v above_o the_o sky_n but_o what_o we_o must_v so_o honour_v god_n word_n as_o i_o say_v as_o we_o must_v not_o doubt_v but_o that_o

glorify_v at_o our_o hand_n be_v as_o i_o say_v at_o the_o beginning_n that_o if_o there_o be_v no_o more_o but_o his_o bare_a word_n yet_o ought_v the_o same_o to_o content_v and_o suffice_v us._n

drop_n of_o power_n in_o we_o that_o tend_v unto_o good_a but_o that_o we_o be_v whole_o give_v to_o evil_a and_o yet_o notwithstanding_o it_o be_v his_o will_n also_o that_o when_o he_o have_v put_v his_o gracious_a gift_n into_o we_o we_o shall_v make_v they_o avaylable_a without_o chaleng_v any_o thing_n at_o all_o to_o ourselves_o for_o in_o this_o case_n it_o be_v not_o for_o we_o to_o glory_n in_o ourselves_o nor_o to_o trust_v in_o our_o own_o leg_n according_a whereunto_o it_o be_v say_v in_o the_o psalm_n to_o such_o as_o be_v give_v to_o the_o world_n 17._o psal._n 33.16_o

that_o be_v the_o cause_n why_o i_o say_v that_o we_o must_v evermore_o come_v back_o to_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n and_o there_o seek_v y_z e_o thing_n that_o be_v want_v in_o ourselves_o for_o

we_o say_v i_o be_v sure_a that_o god_n will_v take_v we_o uppe_o into_o his_o heavenly_a kingdom_n we_o must_v have_v recourse_n to_o this_o word_n that_o be_v speak_v to_o the_o poor_a thief_n this_o day_n shall_v thou_o be_v with_o i_o in_o paradise_n see_v it_o be_v so_o that_o our_o lord_n die_v &_o that_o he_o enter_v into_o such_o gulf_n of_o sorrow_n that_o he_o be_v pinch_v so_o

we_o shall_v have_v feel_v and_o will_v lift_v we_o up_o to_o himself_o and_o therefore_o now_o let_v we_o not_o be_v afraid_a of_o death_n but_o first_o of_o all_o it_o behove_v we_o to_o follow_v the_o poor_a thief_n what_o have_v he_o in_o he_o to_o bring_v he_o to_o the_o kingdom_n of_o heaven_n he_o be_v fasten_v to_o a_o cross_n he_o have_v his_o arm_n and_o leg_n break_v he_o seem_v to_o

because_o it_o please_v he_o if_o a_o man_n shall_v look_v upon_o the_o outward_a appearance_n it_o be_v well_o know_v that_o the_o kingdom_n of_o israel_n be_v far_o great_a than_o the_o kingdom_n of_o juda_n true_a it_o be_v that_o in_o king_n david_n time_n they_o be_v all_o one_o kingdom_n but_o when_o the_o people_n fall_v away_o than_o the_o tribe_n of_o ephraim_n become_v of_o great_a

it_o be_v so_o let_v we_o understande_v that_o to_o serve_v god_n aright_o man_n must_v uncase_v themselves_o of_o all_o pride_n so_o as_o they_o seek_v not_o to_o advance_v themselves_o but_o

foremost_a to_o the_o offering_n they_o pretend_v to_o do_v it_o of_o devotion_n but_o indeed_o they_o do_v it_o of_o devilish_a pride_n and_o therefore_o if_o we_o will_v have_v god_n to_o accept_v our_o service_n let_v we_o learn_v to_o come_v unto_o he_o with_o humility_n and_o not_o to_o turn_v our_o tail_n to_o our_o neighbour_n &_o if_o god_n vouchsafe_v to_o endue_v any_o other_o with_o great_a grace_n than_o ourselves_o we_o must_v not_o spite_v they_o for_o it_o as_o we_o be_v warn_v of_o it_o we_o see_v that_o god_n distribute_v his_o gift_n more_o unto_o one_o than_o unto_o another_o what_o be_v now_o to_o be_v do_v shall_v we_o have_v spite_n at_o it_o shall_v we_o gaze_v about_o we_o how_o to_o make_v ourselves_o iolie_a fellow_n alas_o we_o do_v but_o wander_v away_o from_o god_n when_o we_o step_v forth_o to_o advance_v ourselves_o before_o man_n therefore_o let_v we_o proceed_v with_o all_o lowliness_n and_o not_o be_v so_o fond_o and_o wicked_o dispose_v as_o to_o have_v a_o will_n to_o be_v prefer_v before_o our_o neighbour_n and_o so_o we_o see_v what_o moses_n mean_v to_o express_v here_o in_o say_v god_n will_v choose_v he_o out_o some_o one_o certain_a place_n from_o among_o thy_o tribe_n and_o let_v it_o not_o grieve_v they_o that_o be_v put_v back_o from_o it_o for_o why_o if_o it_o be_v god_n will_v to_o humble_v they_o they_o shall_v

he_o be_v not_o to_o be_v enclose_v in_o it_o as_o in_o respect_n of_o his_o substance_n for_o as_o i_o have_v declare_v afore_o there_o be_v always_o two_o thing_n which_o it_o behoove_v we_o to_o mark_v well_o when_o we_o have_v a_o outward_a order_n or_o form_n of_o serve_v god_n we_o must_v observe_v two_o thing_n therein_o the_o one_o be_v that_o forasmuch_o as_o god_n see_v we_o to_o be_v rude_a and_o earthly_a he_o stoop_v unto_o we_o and_o pleasure_v we_o so_o far_o as_o to_o give_v we_o thing_n fit_a for_o us._n as_o for_o example_n when_o we_o in_o pray_v do_v use_v these_o ceremony_n of_o kneel_v down_o of_o put_v off_o our_o cap_n and_o lift_v up_o our_o hand_n wherefore_o do_v we_o so_o it_o be_v not_o for_o that_o god_n have_v need_n of_o it_o for_o his_o part_n but_o for_o our_o own_o weakness_n sake_n because_o we_o be_v over_o gross_a we_o be_v fain_o to_o be_v exercise_v after_o that_o fashion_n after_o the_o same_o manner_n we_o have_v baptism_n and_o

the_o lord_n will_v choose_v he_o a_o place_n to_o set_v his_o sanctuary_n in_o there_o will_v he_o have_v you_o to_o worship_v he_o there_o will_v he_o have_v you_o to_o offer_v your_o sacrifice_n

that_o he_o fit_v between_o cherubin_n after_o the_o manner_n of_o man_n but_o that_o it_o be_v enough_o for_o you_o that_o his_o name_n be_v there_o that_o be_v to_o say_v that_o he_o give_v you_o

respect_n whereof_o he_o say_v y_o t_o benjamin_n shall_v be_v god_n derling_n and_o that_o he_o shall_v dwell_v safe_o by_o he_o sooth_o it_o be_v requisite_a that_o the_o beniamit_n at_o leastwise_o
