god_n reason_n in_o circumstance_n and_o much_o revelation_n of_o the_o wrath_n of_o god_n against_o the_o enemy_n when_o the_o godly_a look_n upon_o they_o their_o heart_n be_v wonderful_o affect_v overcome_v and_o melt_v within_o they_o and_o when_o the_o wicked_a be_v constrain_v to_o hear_v of_o they_o they_o be_v confound_v within_o themselves_o and_o never_o more_o than_o upon_o this_o ground_n do_v apprehend_v that_o god_n have_v be_v fight_v against_o they_o and_o they_o fight_v against_o god_n 3._o a_o three_o reason_n may_v be_v because_o the_o lord_n prepare_v matter_n reason_n for_o a_o sacrifice_n of_o glory_n and_o thanksgiving_n to_o himself_o not_o only_o from_o the_o great_a bundle_n and_o sheaf_n of_o his_o work_n but_o from_o the_o small_a scatter_a ear_n of_o his_o

shall_v be_v from_o the_o honourable_a house_n and_o from_o both_o kingdom_n the_o second_o duty_n which_o i_o recommend_v be_v obedience_n to_o the_o christ_n command_n of_o christ_n against_o all_o
