and_o inoffensive_a than_o the_o best_a of_o man_n either_o now_o be_v or_o ever_o be_v and_o yet_o nothing_o but_o calamity_n and_o affliction_n contempt_n and_o scorn_n disgrace_n and_o calumny_n be_v the_o reward_n of_o his_o goodness_n and_o charity_n and_o if_o he_o who_o be_v lord_n and_o king_n of_o both_o world_n be_v willing_a for_o our_o sake_n to_o endure_v all_o this_o without_o one_o murmur_a word_n or_o repine_v thought_n shall_v we_o that_o be_v sinful_a dust_n and_o ash_n complain_v and_o rail_v and_o be_v at_o our_o wit_n end_n mere_o because_o we_o suffer_v some_o

demean_v ourselves_o under_o all_o the_o calamity_n of_o mind_n that_o shall_v befall_v we_o for_o if_o we_o do_v this_o willing_o we_o have_v our_o reward_n we_o shall_v find_v such_o a_o calmness_n

in_o general_a this_o that_o no_o person_n ought_v to_o forbear_v a_o vigorous_a prosecution_n of_o his_o duty_n upon_o the_o score_n of_o that_o calumny_n and_o disgrace_n that_o malice_n and_o hatred_n those_o affliction_n and_o persecution_n that_o the_o profligate_v and_o wicked_a be_v always_o ready_a to_o load_v he_o with_o i_o have_v before_o suggest_v that_o the_o whole_a host_n of_o christian_a martyr_n may_v have_v live_v and_o die_v in_o peace_n in_o the_o peace_n of_o this_o world_n i_o mean_v for_o i_o doubt_v not_o but_o that_o in_o their_o life_n they_o have_v daily_o inward_a peace_n of_o mind_n and_o in_o their_o death_n comfort_n if_o they_o will_v have_v be_v as_o some_o in_o those_o early_a day_n and_o other_o both_o in_o queen_n mary_n and_o in_o a_o late_a reign_n be_v proditores_fw-la and_o have_v tame_o deliver_v up_o their_o bibles_n to_o be_v burn_v and_o cowardly_o forsake_v the_o religion_n of_o the_o gospel_n but_o contrariwise_o they_o consider_v themselves_o as_o soldier_n and_o volunteer_n list_a and_o engage_v to_o fight_v under_o the_o banner_n of_o christ_n they_o remember_v at_o once_o his_o suffering_n and_o his_o victory_n in_o the_o end_n they_o daily_o see_v their_o bishop_n and_o pastor_n suffer_v martyrdom_n with_o a_o inflexible_a courage_n and_o constancy_n and_o by_o their_o brave_a example_n be_v animate_v to_o endure_v the_o loss_n of_o all_o thing_n rather_o than_o draw_v back_o unto_o perdition_n and_o oh_o that_o we_o who_o be_v as_o firebrand_n pluck_v out_o of_o the_o fire_n and_o have_v not_o many_o year_n since_o escape_v by_o a_o wonderful_a deliverance_n can_v be_v influence_v by_o the_o carriage_n of_o such_o christian_a hero_n to_o seek_v for_o true_a peace_n with_o god_n and_o with_o our_o own_o conscience_n but_o how_o shall_v this_o peace_n be_v obtain_v be_v not_o startle_v at_o what_o i_o say_v this_o peace_n can_v humane_o speak_v be_v find_v but_o in_o a_o continual_a warfare_n with_o the_o devil_n the_o world_n and_o the_o flesh_n in_o a_o perpetual_a resistance_n of_o all_o temptation_n and_o in_o a_o constant_a abstinence_n from_o all_o worldly_a and_o carnal_a lust_n these_o be_v those_o our_o deadly_a and_o implacable_a enemy_n which_o if_o we_o use_v not_o our_o whole_a stock_n of_o grace_n and_o industry_n to_o destroy_v will_v never_o leave_v the_o field_n till_o they_o have_v lest_o we_o none_o remain_v and_o have_v carry_v away_o both_o we_o and_o our_o standard_n to_o hell_n but_o if_o we_o be_v careful_a as_o it_o infinite_o concern_v we_o to_o be_v to_o steer_v our_o life_n by_o the_o compass_n of_o god_n law_n if_o we_o courageous_o set_v upon_o and_o go_v through_o with_o the_o work_n of_o righteousness_n and_o true_a holiness_n and_o if_o we_o will_v be_v persuade_v to_o exercise_v such_o a_o zeal_n for_o the_o honour_n of_o god_n and_o for_o the_o depress_v cause_n of_o religion_n and_o virtue_n as_o have_v christian_a prudence_n and_o knowledge_n for_o its_o inseparable_a associate_n we_o may_v reasonable_o expect_v a_o happy_a voyage_n to_o the_o haven_n of_o rest_n and_o peace_n and_o what_o if_o it_o shall_v happen_v that_o the_o frown_n of_o the_o wicked_a that_o the_o utmost_a rage_n and_o fury_n of_o man_n and_o devil_n shall_v constant_o attend_v and_o pursue_v we_o in_o this_o our_o conflict_n shall_v these_o thing_n move_v we_o to_o leave_v labour_v in_o our_o master_n vineyard_n heaven_n avert_v such_o sloth_n and_o cowardice_n can_v we_o forget_v that_o by_o the_o help_n of_o our_o god_n we_o shall_v be_v able_a to_o leap_v over_o all_o these_o wall_n or_o can_v we_o imagine_v that_o if_o we_o do_v our_o part_n manful_o the_o grace_n of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n will_v be_v want_v to_o enable_v we_o to_o keep_v our_o ground_n only_o amid_o all_o the_o trial_n and_o temptation_n we_o lie_v under_o let_v we_o often_o and_o earnest_o seek_v in_o prayer_n for_o god_n assistance_n and_o direction_n and_o frequent_o remember_v that_o jesus_n christ_n of_o the_o seed_n of_o david_n be_v raise_v from_o the_o dead_a and_o let_v this_o single_a consideration_n inspire_v we_o with_o patience_n and_o fortitude_n in_o our_o extreme_a suffering_n and_o then_o we_o shall_v not_o fail_v of_o that_o crown_n of_o glory_n which_o jesus_n our_o lord_n and_o our_o god_n have_v in_o store_n for_o all_o his_o victorious_a soldier_n and_o servant_n which_o he_o buy_v for_o we_o with_o the_o price_n of_o his_o own_o most_o precious_a blood_n which_o he_o have_v assure_v we_o of_o by_o his_o resurrection_n from_o death_n and_o the_o grave_a and_o which_o he_o ascend_v up_o into_o heaven_n to_o put_v on_o our_o head_n with_o his_o own_o hand_n if_o these_o comfortable_a promise_n be_v not_o true_a and_o just_a and_o certain_o to_o be_v rely_v on_o i_o do_v not_o only_o say_v that_o christian_n be_v of_o all_o man_n most_o miserable_a but_o then_o also_o i_o say_v that_o the_o sacred_a scripture_n be_v as_o it_o have_v be_v often_o phrased_a by_o some_o inconsiderate_a man_n among_o we_o of_o unfound_a and_o heterodox_n principle_n a_o insignificant_a and_o dead_a letter_n and_o then_o by_o necessary_a consequence_n both_o our_o preach_a be_v vain_a and_o your_o faith_n be_v vain_a thus_o much_o i_o think_v fit_a to_o offer_v in_o the_o general_n by_o way_n of_o application_n to_o all_o people_n as_o be_v that_o in_o which_o every_o christian_a living_n be_v concern_v but_o i_o have_v other_o and_o more_o particular_a thing_n to_o say_v of_o and_o to_o you_o for_o who_o sake_n more_o especial_o this_o discourse_n be_v make_v not_o more_o through_o your_o earnest_a solicitation_n than_o a_o cheerful_a compliance_n on_o my_o part_n you_o have_v declare_v yourselves_o sensible_a of_o the_o dishonour_n do_v to_o god_n by_o the_o open_a profaneness_n of_o many_o dissolute_a and_o lewd_a person_n profess_v christianity_n which_o indeed_o be_v so_o great_a that_o i_o can_v but_o wonder_n that_o some_o otherwise_o discern_v people_n shall_v not_o be_v able_a to_o see_v that_o we_o hasten_v what_o we_o can_v to_o make_v ourselves_o and_o the_o nation_n too_o ripe_a for_o destruction_n i_o wish_v i_o may_v say_v true_o that_o these_o shortsighted_a foulkes_n do_v not_o wink_v hard_a and_o affect_v blindness_n it_o can_v be_v deny_v that_o we_o have_v many_o good_a law_n now_o in_o force_n against_o immorality_n and_o profaneness_n and_o such_o as_o if_o due_o and_o impartial_o execute_v will_v force_v all_o open_a vice_n especial_o to_o pull_v in_o its_o horn_n but_o on_o the_o other_o hand_n it_o can_v and_o therefore_o ought_v not_o to_o be_v dissemble_v that_o the_o supineness_n and_o remissness_n of_o those_o person_n which_o shall_v put_v these_o wholesome_a statute_n in_o execution_n and_o make_v they_o live_v law_n be_v shameful_a and_o abominable_a this_o be_v the_o repeat_v language_n of_o our_o parliament_n in_o their_o address_n and_o of_o our_o king_n in_o his_o proclamation_n and_o these_o be_v the_o thought_n and_o in_o the_o order_n of_o our_o late_a most_o gracious_a queen_n of_o bless_a memory_n who_o first_o
