of_o god_n upon_o their_o not_o harken_v to_o and_o obey_v that_o gracious_a call_n viz._n to_o root_v they_o out_o and_o destroy_v they_o ver._n 14._o sure_o your_o iniquity_n shall_v not_o be_v purge_v from_o you_o till_o you_o die_v say_v the_o lord_n of_o host_n i._o i_o begin_v with_o the_o first_o of_o these_o the_o unspeakable_a mercy_n and_o kindness_n of_o god_n to_o the_o jew_n in_o call_v they_o to_o a_o solemn_a and_o serious_a humiliation_n in_o that_o day_n do_v the_o lord_n of_o host_n call_v to_o weep_v and_o to_o mourning_n etc._n etc._n whether_o this_o call_n be_v by_o

upon_o they_o he_o endeavour_v to_o reclaim_v they_o from_o the_o evil_n of_o their_o way_n and_o bring_v they_o to_o a_o sight_n and_o sense_n of_o their_o folly_n before_o their_o final_a extirpation_n it_o be_v certain_a that_o either_o or_o both_o of_o these_o call_v be_v very_o expressive_a of_o his_o love_a kindness_n towards_o they_o 1._o for_o first_o it_o argue_v the_o great_a care_n and_o concernment_n god_n have_v still_o for_o their_o nation_n how_o solicitous_a he_o be_v to_o preserve_v and_o to_o continue_v it_o to_o protect_v and_o to_o defend_v it_o to_o make_v they_o still_o a_o glorious_a and_o a_o flourish_a people_n happy_a in_o themselves_o and_o a_o terror_n to_o their_o enemy_n 2._o and_o second_o it_o be_v a_o argument_n of_o his_o patience_n and_o forbearance_n in_o spare_v and_o reprieve_v they_o from_o punishment_n when_o they_o most_o deserve_v it_o 3._o and_o three_o it_o be_v a_o incentive_a to_o their_o duty_n a_o memorandum_n to_o put_v they_o in_o mind_n what_o course_n they_o shall_v take_v under_o such_o gracious_a method_n namely_o to_o fall_v to_o weep_v and_o to_o mourning_n and_o to_o baldness_n and_o to_o gird_v with_o sackcloth_n that_o be_v by_o such_o outward_a lugubrious_a gesture_n of_o body_n as_o well_o as_o a_o inward_a anguish_n and_o vexation_n of_o spirit_n to_o declare_v their_o sincere_a hatred_n of_o all_o sin_n and_o resolution_n of_o amendment_n so_o that_o from_o hence_o here_o will_v be_v three_o thing_n to_o be_v insist_v upon_o 1._o the_o providence_n of_o god_n in_o take_v care_n of_o kingdom_n and_o community_n of_o mankind_n he_o suffer_v not_o thing_n to_o go_v at_o random_n in_o they_o but_o he_o dispose_v of_o they_o as_o he_o think_v fit_a and_o when_o there_o be_v a_o necessity_n he_o call_v to_o they_o 2._o his_o patience_n and_o forbearance_n he_o do_v not_o punish_v without_o give_v they_o notice_n he_o call_v they_o first_o and_o then_o he_o strike_v 3._o the_o end_n of_o all_o his_o gracious_a call_v it_o be_v to_o work_v in_o they_o a_o thorough_a humiliation_n for_o their_o transgression_n 1._o first_o i_o shall_v consider_v the_o providence_n of_o god_n in_o take_v care_n of_o kingdom_n and_o community_n of_o mankind_n where_o all_o thing_n do_v not_o happen_v by_o chance_n but_o the_o divine_a disposal_n of_o god_n almighty_n who_o call_v to_o they_o and_o exert_v his_o power_n among_o they_o when_o there_o be_v occasion_n for_o it_o it_o be_v a_o fond_a and_o strange_a opinion_n of_o the_o epicurean_o of_o old_a that_o god_n be_v so_o take_v up_o with_o the_o contemplation_n of_o his_o own_o excellency_n and_o perfection_n that_o he_o will_v not_o so_o much_o as_o vouchsafe_v to_o cast_v one_o glance_v down_o upon_o these_o

folly_n or_o seem_v to_o applaud_v their_o action_n be_v irreconcilable_a with_o the_o divine_a happiness_n which_o be_v unmixed_a and_o pure_a free_a from_o any_o thing_n that_o may_v disturb_v or_o disquiet_v it_o a_o fancy_n no_o doubt_n which_o lucian_n gather_v from_o their_o school_n in_o which_o he_o be_v no_o small_a proficient_a as_o a_o learned_a and_o worthy_a person_n tell_v we_o for_o

their_o time_n in_o tell_v old_a story_n saturn_n confess_v that_o he_o be_v gouty_a which_o give_v occasion_n to_o the_o poet_n to_o write_v that_o he_o be_v fetter_v by_o jupiter_n to_o who_o as_o be_v the_o young_a and_o more_o active_a he_o resign_v the_o thunder_n and_o the_o kingdom_n not_o trouble_v himself_o with_o hear_v man_n prayer_n and_o punish_v their_o offence_n that_o be_v a_o troublesome_a and_o irksome_a piece_n of_o service_n but_o if_o god_n almighty_n be_v thus_o confine_v to_o heaven_n and_o his_o providence_n do_v not_o expand_v itself_o over_o all_o the_o universe_n what_o account_n can_v be_v give_v of_o the_o establishment_n of_o one_o kingdom_n upon_o the_o ruin_n of_o another_o that_o one_o nation_n who_o senator_n be_v wise_a and_o politic_a
in_o that_o rebellious_a nation_n 11._o cap._n 4._o v._n 6_o 7_o 8_o 9_o 10_o 11._o he_o tell_v we_o that_o god_n do_v not_o only_a cleanness_n of_o tooth_n in_o all_o their_o city_n and_o want_v of_o

to_o a_o heap_n of_o rubbish_n and_o ash_n and_o yet_o for_o all_o this_o they_o will_v not_o return_v unto_o god_n by_o reformation_n and_o amendment_n and_o do_v we_o think_v it_o possible_a for_o god_n spirit_n always_o to_o strive_v with_o such_o a_o froward_a generation_n be_v it_o not_o high_a time_n for_o god_n to_o use_v the_o last_o and_o most_o rigorous_a mean_n when_o all_o other_o prove_v useless_a and_o ineffectual_a be_v in_o not_o high_a time_n for_o god_n quite_o to_o cashier_v they_o and_o cast_v they_o out_o of_o his_o sight_n when_o all_o other_o method_n though_o the_o
