all_o the_o kingdom_n of_o the_o world_n as_o the_o most_o excellent_a thing_n and_o to_o be_v prefer_v before_o all_o goodness_n all_o duty_n to_o god_n or_o man_n therefore_o our_o good_a god_n know_v that_o satan_n by_o might_n and_o main_a oppose_v the_o growth_n and_o thrift_n of_o goodness_n do_v here_o thus_o strong_o enforce_v it_o by_o a_o six_o fold_v cable_n of_o reason_n but_o alas_o for_o all_o this_o so_o little_o do_v all_o these_o motive_n prevail_v and_o so_o much_o do_v satan_n that_o it_o may_v be_v say_v of_o the_o great_a part_n of_o man_n in_o our_o time_n as_o true_o as_o one_o speak_v true_o and_o merry_o of_o the_o pope_n that_o all_o his_o holiness_n be_v in_o his_o heel_n and_o for_o that_o cause_n man_n desire_v so_o much_o to_o kiss_v his_o foot_n so_o all_o our_o goodness_n be_v at_o the_o best_a in_o our_o lip_n but_o for_o the_o most_o part_n in_o our_o heel_n and_o on_o our_o back_n &_o therefore_o we_o make_v so_o many_o kiss_n and_o applause_n and_o service_n on_o our_o heel_n and_o back_n many_o mean_a man_n god_n know_v carry_v as_o much_o cost_n about_o their_o heel_n as_o our_o best_a noble_a man_n within_o this_o forty_o year_n wear_v about_o their_o head_n and_o this_o be_v the_o great_a part_n of_o our_o time_n goodness_n but_o now_o that_o i_o be_o speak_v of_o the_o excellency_n of_o this_o duty_n i_o shall_v do_v you_o wrong_v to_o conceal_v any_o part_n of_o her_o beauty_n from_o you_o acquaint_v yourselves_o therefore_o i_o pray_v you_o with_o these_o three_o consideration_n to_o the_o end_n you_o may_v the_o better_o be_v acquaint_v with_o the_o excellency_n of_o goodness_n the_o first_o be_v what_o kind_n of_o goodness_n there_o be_v the_o second_o what_o rule_v of_o goodness_n be_v to_o be_v observe_v the_o three_o what_o be_v the_o evidence_n and_o mark_n of_o goodness_n i_o find_v but_o three_o kind_n the_o first_o be_v preserve_v goodness_n we_o must_v not_o do_v good_a to_o ourselves_o only_o but_o to_o all_o other_o in_o labour_v to_o keep_v and_o preserve_v they_o from_o the_o contagion_n of_o sin_n from_o fall_v from_o grace_n and_o their_o most_o holy_a call_n and_o profession_n and_o that_o by_o all_o mean_n as_o well_o example_n of_o life_n as_o speech_n season_v with_o salt_n for_o it_o be_v the_o main_n scope_n of_o man_n life_n in_o this_o world_n to_o draw_v other_o to_o salvation_n so_o do_v barnabas_n 11_o acts._n 11_o who_o come_v to_o antioch_n and_o see_v the_o grace_n of_o god_n that_o be_v give_v they_o confirm_v they_o therein_o exhort_v that_o with_o purpose_n of_o heart_n they_o will_v cleave_v to_o the_o lord_n the_o second_o be_v unite_n goodness_n to_o set_v man_n at_o unity_n who_o be_v at_o variance_n 5_o math._n 5_o hence_o christ_n call_v peacemaker_n the_o child_n of_o god_n for_o no_o son_n resemble_v his_o father_n so_o much_o in_o any_o quality_n as_o those_o resemble_v god_n that_o make_v peace_n 67_o psal_n 67_o for_o god_n make_v man_n to_o be_v of_o one_o mind_n in_o a_o house_n and_o so_o will_v the_o child_n of_o god_n also_o labour_v to_o do_v there_o be_v another_o kind_n of_o goodness_n call_v communicate_v goodness_n and_o this_o have_v four_o step_n or_o degree_n for_o first_o we_o must_v communicate_v temporal_a thing_n unto_o the_o necessity_n of_o the_o saint_n 12._o rom._n 12._o and_o for_o spiritual_a thing_n and_o blessing_n 4_o 1._o pet._n 4_o as_o every_o man_n have_v receive_v so_o must_v he_o distribute_v second_o we_o must_v be_v plentiful_a in_o the_o work_n of_o mercy_n not_o in_o be_v good_a to_o some_o and_o not_o to_o other_o but_o in_o be_v rich_a in_o good_a work_n to_o all_o charge_v they_o to_o be_v rich_a in_o good_a work_n 6_o 1._o tim._n 6_o herein_o we_o must_v be_v like_o dorcas_n 9_o act_n 9_o who_o clothe_v the_o poor_a with_o garment_n she_o make_v at_o she_o own_o cost_n like_o the_o good_a woman_n who_o open_v the_o palm_n of_o her_o hand_n to_o the_o poor_a 31_o pro._n 31_o like_o good_a job_n who_o the_o loin_n of_o the_o poor_a bless_a three_o 31_o job._n 31_o we_o must_v be_v much_o in_o goodness_n which_o be_v in_o communicate_v to_o other_o abundant_o the_o blessing_n wherewith_o god_n have_v store_v we_o not_o in_o love_v only_o but_o in_o liberal_a supply_v their_o want_n also_o as_o obadiah_n do_v in_o spend_v his_o live_n and_o venture_v his_o life_n 12_o 1._o reg._n 12_o to_o hide_v a_o thousand_o of_o the_o lord_n prophet_n from_o the_o rage_n of_o wicked_a jezabell_n last_o we_o must_v be_v super-abundant_a in_o goodness_n like_o the_o poor_a widow_n that_o will_v rather_o want_v herself_o 21_o luc._n 21_o then_o be_v want_v in_o the_o contribution_n of_o the_o lord_n treasury_n and_o therefore_o cast_v into_o the_o corban_n two_o mite_n even_o all_o she_o have_v so_o that_o we_o must_v relieve_v the_o want_n of_o other_o as_o we_o be_v able_a and_o sometime_o above_o that_o we_o be_v able_a as_o paul_n say_v of_o the_o corinthian_n that_o to_o their_o power_n and_o beyond_o their_o power_n 8_o 2._o cor._n 8_o they_o be_v willing_a to_o minister_v to_o the_o necessity_n of_o the_o brethren_n now_o be_v we_o to_o know_v what_o be_v the_o rule_n to_o be_v observe_v in_o goodness_n and_o those_o i_o find_v to_o be_v 4._o the_o first_o rule_n be_v that_o we_o must_v do_v good_a only_o of_o that_o be_v our_o own_o no_o rob_n of_o peter_n to_o pay_v paul_n no_o deal_n unjust_o with_o any_o to_o do_v good_a to_o other_o 61_o be_v 61_o such_o sacrifice_n god_n abhor_v hence_o david_n will_v not_o offer_v burn_v sacrifice_n of_o that_o which_o cost_v he_o nothing_o 2d_o 1._o cron._n 2d_o which_o be_v not_o his_o own_o second_o we_o must_v do_v good_a with_o alacrity_n and_o cheerfulness_n for_o god_n love_v a_o cheerful_a giver_n 9_o 2._o cor._n 9_o therefore_o one_o say_v very_o apt_o well_o do_v must_v proceed_v from_o well_o wish_v ambr._n ambr._n for_o such_o as_o be_v the_o affection_n such_o will_v be_v the_o action_n therefore_o we_o must_v give_v free_o else_o it_o be_v no_o gift_n in_o do_v good_a we_o must_v not_o be_v huckster_n we_o must_v not_o truck_v one_o for_o another_o for_o even_o publican_n and_o sinner_n do_v the_o same_o therefore_o one_o say_v true_o danda_fw-la sunt_fw-la beneficia_fw-la non_fw-la foeneranda_fw-la lact._n lact._n good_a turn_n and_o benefit_n be_v free_o to_o be_v give_v not_o covetous_o put_v to_o usury_n three_o the_o next_o rule_n be_v that_o we_o so_o give_v to_o other_o that_o we_o disable_v not_o ourselves_o from_o just_a maintenance_n of_o ourselves_o 11_o act._n 11_o all_o send_v succour_n to_o the_o brethren_n but_o yet_o it_o be_v according_a to_o their_o ability_n but_o herein_o i_o need_v not_o spend_v much_o argument_n for_o our_o age_n give_v not_o a_o man_n of_o this_o excess_n the_o last_o rule_n be_v that_o we_o must_v do_v all_o the_o good_a we_o can_v within_o the_o compass_n of_o our_o call_n and_o not_o so_o only_o but_o also_o hinder_v all_o the_o evil_n we_o can_v hinder_v by_o any_o mean_n but_o here_o some_o may_v object_v unto_o i_o god_n himself_o do_v not_o all_o the_o good_a he_o may_v do_v nor_o yet_o hinder_v all_o the_o evil_n he_o may_v therefore_o neither_o be_v we_o bind_v to_o do_v it_o for_o satisfaction_n hereof_o i_o say_v that_o in_o this_o behalf_n we_o be_v not_o to_o imitate_v god_n first_n because_o we_o be_v subject_a to_o that_o law_n thou_o shall_v not_o do_v evil_a 3._o rom._n 3._o that_o good_a may_v come_v thereof_o but_o god_n be_v not_o subject_a to_o any_o law_n no_o not_o to_o his_o own_o law_n beside_o he_o have_v power_n to_o dispense_v with_o it_o so_o have_v not_o we_o second_o he_o be_v able_a to_o draw_v good_a out_o of_o evil_a and_o light_v out_o of_o darkness_n which_o we_o can_v do_v three_o god_n be_v the_o general_a good_a we_o be_v the_o particular_a good_a now_o betwixt_o these_o two_o there_o be_v great_a difference_n for_o the_o particular_a good_a must_v procure_v all_o the_o good_a and_o hinder_v all_o the_o evil_a it_o can_v within_o his_o call_n but_o to_o the_o nature_n of_o the_o universal_a good_a there_o be_v these_o three_o thing_n appertain_v first_o that_o all_o thing_n be_v good_a in_o some_o measure_n of_o goodness_n second_o that_o some_o thing_n be_v better_a than_o other_o three_o that_o those_o thing_n which_o be_v defective_a in_o goodness_n that_o be_v all_o evil_a thing_n shall_v be_v ordain_v to_o the_o common_a good_a as_o for_o better_a explanation_n in_o a_o well_o order_v house_n first_o all_o the_o part_n thereof_o be_v good_a in_o their_o kind_n second_o some_o be_v better_o than_o other_o

we_o come_v into_o our_o garden_n and_o orchard_n and_o see_v they_o grow_v over_o with_o nettle_n and_o such_o other_o trash_n present_o we_o fall_v to_o weed_n &_o prune_v and_o be_v offend_v with_o

keep_v the_o garden_n of_o the_o church_n and_o kingdom_n from_o the_o nettle_n and_o weed_n of_o impiety_n and_o wickedness_n which_o will_v at_o length_n choke_v the_o growth_n of_o all_o goodness_n in_o the_o land_n but_o alas_o what_o fruit_n can_v we_o expect_v when_o not_o only_a brier_n and_o thistle_n be_v suffer_v to_o grow_v up_o but_o be_v more_o cherish_v than_o the_o good_a and_o

that_o they_o wither_v and_o die_v for_o want_v of_o pluck_v up_o the_o weed_n of_o vice_n that_o overtoppe_v they_o the_o three_o inquiry_n be_v how_o goodness_n shall_v be_v so_o desire_v of_o all_o and_o so_o little_o practise_v of_o any_o first_o shall_v i_o say_v it_o be_v like_o the_o little_a book_n which_o john_n take_v and_o cate_z 10_o apoc._n 10_o and_o it_o be_v in_o his_o mouth_n as_o

to_o all_o so_o it_o have_v a_o magnetical_a attractive_a power_n to_o draw_v all_o to_o the_o gaze_n of_o it_o the_o face_n of_o goodness_n be_v so_o beautiful_a that_o the_o most_o profane_a man_n
