also_o and_o it_o be_v a_o set_a order_n among_o they_o that_o when_o one_o sort_n of_o they_o have_v be_v occupy_v all_o the_o day_n in_o sing_v the_o praise_n of_o god_n it_o behove_v they_o to_o

y_fw-fr t_o all_o man_n be_v accurse_v &_o condemn_v to_o death_n and_o that_o they_o ought_v not_o in_o any_o wise_a to_o come_v in_o god_n presence_n without_o sacrifice_n 11.12_o hebr._n 10.4_o &_o

the_o protestation_n which_o we_o make_v of_o the_o benefit_n of_o god_n will_v be_v nothing_o but_o fainednesse_n and_o hypocrisy_n for_o we_o see_v common_o that_o man_n will_v ready_o say_v it_o

intend_v or_o to_o mind_n to_o destroy_v a_o other_o it_o be_v most_o agree_v then_o with_o the_o sense_n of_o the_o word_n that_o the_o jew_n shall_v in_o this_o place_n protest_v that_o their_o father_n jacob_n be_v drive_v out_o of_o his_o own_o house_n and_o account_v as_o a_o syrian_a and_o that_o when_o he_o come_v unto_o the_o land_n which_o god_n have_v give_v he_o it_o be_v as_o if_o

they_o yea_o even_o when_o they_o be_v in_o a_o most_o miserable_a case_n now_o as_o touch_v the_o second_o point_n we_o see_v how_o moses_n have_v here_o declare_v their_o come_n out_o of_o egypt_n in_o such_o manner_n as_o the_o jew_n must_v needs_o be_v awaken_v to_o consider_v how_o mighty_o god_n have_v wrought_v for_o they_o for_o he_o say_v not_o simple_o that_o god_n deliver_v they_o out_o of_o the_o land_n of_o egypt_n but_o have_v make_v a_o long_a rehearsal_n how_o the_o egyptian_n have_v set_v their_o foot_n on_o the_o throat_n of_o this_o poor_a people_n how_o they_o have_v

be_v the_o redeemer_n of_o that_o people_n but_o he_o have_v large_o show_v that_o the_o jew_n can_v attribute_v their_o deliveraunce_n neither_o to_o fortune_n nor_o to_o their_o own_o policy_n nor_o to_o any_o other_o mean_n in_o the_o whole_a world_n but_o they_o be_v force_v to_o know_v the_o wonderful_a power_n of_o god_n who_o so_o stretch_v forth_o his_o arm_n as_o if_o he_o have_v come_v after_o a_o visible_a manner_n to_o redeem_v his_o people_n now_o than_o if_o we_o will_v yield_v unto_o god_n the_o honour_n which_o he_o deserve_v let_v we_o learn_v to_o consider_v of_o his_o

but_o that_o he_o have_v so_o plain_o certify_v we_o thereof_o that_o the_o thing_n can_v be_v but_o know_v and_o apparent_a unto_o us._n thus_o you_o see_v what_o we_o have_v to_o bear_v in_o mind_n concern_v this_o place_n and_o let_v we_o note_v by_o the_o way_n that_o albeit_o god_n hear_v the_o cry_n of_o his_o people_n yet_o he_o show_v it_o not_o by_o his_o doing_n at_o the_o first_o we_o see_v how_o the_o people_n come_v to_o extreme_a misery_n ere_o they_o be_v succour_v and_o that_o be_v the_o cause_n why_o it_o be_v express_o say_v in_o exodus_fw-la 3.7_o 〈◊〉_d 3.7_o i_o have_v

we_o to_o invent_v what_o seem_v good_a unto_o we_o but_o that_o that_o matter_n lie_v simple_o in_o the_o will_n of_o god_n and_o that_o whatsoever_o he_o ordeyn_v aught_o to_o be_v hold_v and_o that_o it_o be_v not_o lawful_a for_o man_n to_o attempt_v any_o thing_n in_o that_o behalf_n yea_o and_o that_o such_o addition_n and_o minglinge_n be_v mere_a corruption_n therefore_o when_o moses_n

to_o be_v small_a thing_n be_v reserve_v unto_o god_n so_o as_o it_o be_v not_o lawful_a for_o the_o world_n to_o add_v any_o thing_n no_o not_o so_o much_o as_o a_o pin_n point_n unto_o they_o but_o that_o the_o builder_n of_o the_o sanctuary_n and_o the_o maker_n of_o the_o priestly_a garment_n be_v to_o be_v govern_v by_o the_o holy_a ghost_n see_v that_o god_n declare_v thereby_o that_o he_o

we_o be_v then_o and_o yet_o we_o see_v this_o horrible_a disorder_n throughout_o all_o the_o popedom_n therefore_o we_o may_v well_o conclude_v that_o there_o be_v nothing_o but_o utter_v defile_v of_o god_n service_n and_o that_o all_o that_o ever_o be_v so_o entitle_v there_o be_v but_o mere_a ydolatrie_n and_o that_o god_n name_n be_v altogether_o unhallowed_a in_o that_o behalf_n that_o
