thus_o the_o scripture_n speak_v of_o the_o lord_n in_o his_o wrath_n and_o doubtless_o the_o flame_a anger_n of_o leviathan_n when_o provoke_v be_v but_o like_o a_o warm_a sunshine_n compare_v with_o

have_v no_o neck_n yet_o he_o answer_v it_o be_v safe_a to_o credit_n aristotle_n who_o say_v the_o crocodile_n have_v a_o neck_n and_o give_v this_o reason_n for_o it_o because_o those_o animal_n which_o have_v no_o neck_n at_o all_o can_v move_v their_o head_n whereas_o the_o crocodile_n by_o the_o testimony_n of_o pliny_n and_o other_o can_v turn_v his_o head_n upward_o or_o hold_v it_o up_o backward_o to_o bite_v his_o prey_n to_o this_o some_o answer_n and_o i_o conceive_v their_o answer_n may_v satisfy_v in_o this_o point_n that_o how_o little_a or_o how_o undiscernible_a soever_o the_o space_n be_v between_o the_o head_n and_o the_o body_n of_o any_o animal_n the_o very_a join_n or_o couple_v of_o they_o together_o may_v be_v call_v his_o neck_n and_o in_o that_o sense_n the_o

full_o with_o what_o be_v here_o say_v of_o the_o neck_n of_o leviathan_n in_o his_o neck_n remain_v strength_n the_o hebrew_n be_v lodge_v and_o so_o mr._n broughton_n render_v in_o his_o neck_n always_o lodge_v strength_n that_o be_v he_o be_v always_o strong_a very_o strong_a necked_a his_o neck_n be_v so_o stiff_a and_o strong_a that_o strength_n itself_o may_v seem_v to_o have_v take_v

his_o arm_n jer._n 17.5_o the_o arm_n of_o flesh_n be_v too_o weak_a to_o be_v trust_v in_o though_o never_o so_o strong_a though_o it_o have_v the_o strength_n of_o the_o unicorn_n it_o must_v not_o be_v trust_v no_o creature_n strength_n be_v to_o be_v trust_v in_o as_o to_o dependence_n upon_o it_o second_o there_o be_v a_o trust_n of_o strength_n as_o to_o the_o use_v and_o employ_v of_o it_o thus_o strength_n may_v be_v trust_v we_o may_v trust_v the_o strong_a that_o they_o will_v use_v their_o strength_n for_o we_o only_o we_o must_v not_o rest_v in_o their_o strength_n they_o who_o

have_v no_o strength_n to_o use_v or_o to_o make_v they_o any_o way_n useful_a there_o be_v three_o sort_n of_o man_n to_o be_v consider_v in_o respect_n of_o strength_n first_o some_o have_v a_o will_v to_o do_v more_o than_o they_o have_v strength_n to_o do_v they_o have_v a_o will_v to_o do_v more_o in_o ordinary_a work_n than_o they_o have_v strength_n to_o do_v and_o they_o have_v a_o

they_o be_v like_o the_o unicorn_n and_o that_o upon_o a_o double_a ground_n first_o some_o be_v so_o lazy_a and_o idle_a that_o they_o will_v not_o do_v what_o they_o have_v strength_n to_o do_v

for_o this_o reason_n because_o they_o be_v amphibion_n for_o first_o as_o all_o creature_n of_o that_o sort_n have_v a_o uncouthness_n and_o a_o kind_n of_o monstrosity_n in_o their_o natural_n so_o they_o have_v no_o commendable_a signification_n in_o our_o moral_n they_o bear_v the_o resemblance_n of_o indifferent_a and_o middle_a man_n who_o be_v as_o we_o speak_v proverbial_o neither_o

therefore_o we_o can_v stand_v before_o god_n in_o it_o there_o be_v much_o unrighteousness_n in_o our_o righteousness_n therefore_o we_o can_v stand_v before_o god_n in_o it_o and_o how_o righteous_a if_o i_o may_v so_o speak_v soever_o our_o righteousness_n be_v or_o may_v be_v yet_o we_o can_v stand_v before_o god_n in_o it_o because_o he_o have_v appoint_v another_o righteousness_n or_o the_o

by_o faith_n god_n be_v not_o terrible_a to_o such_o they_o may_v stand_v before_o god_n the_o poor_a sinner_n may_v stand_v before_o god_n in_o the_o wisdom_n and_o strength_n and_o righteousness_n
