zeph._n 2.1_o 2._o be_v notable_a to_o this_o purpose_n where_o the_o lord_n say_v gather_v yourselves_o together_o yea_o gather_v together_o o_o nation_n not_o desire_v before_o the_o decree_n bring_v forth_o before_o the_o day_n pass_v as_o the_o chaff_n before_o the_o fierce_a anger_n of_o the_o lord_n come_v upon_o you_o before_o the_o day_n of_o the_o lord_n anger_v come_v upon_o you_o as_o when_o absolom_n can_v not_o speak_v with_o joah_n by_o fair_a mean_n he_o know_v that_o if_o once_o his_o corn_n be_v on_o fire_n he_o will_v quick_o come_v unto_o he_o so_o when_o the_o lord_n inflict_v judgement_n on_o his_o people_n it_o be_v to_o humble_v they_o in_o his_o presence_n 22.12_o isa_n 22.12_o so_o in_o isa_n 22.12_o in_o that_o day_n to_o wit_n in_o the_o day_n of_o their_o

stick_v in_o it_o and_o it_o be_v in_o vain_a to_o expect_v the_o removal_n of_o a_o judgement_n till_o man_n be_v humble_v and_o purge_v but_o take_v away_o the_o cause_n and_o the_o effect_n will_v cease_v use_v 1_o what_o shall_v we_o think_v of_o a_o number_n of_o desperate_a wretch_n in_o the_o world_n who_o when_o they_o shall_v be_v humble_v under_o god_n afflict_a hand_n sin_n more_o and_o

chro._n 28.22_o and_o in_o the_o time_n of_o this_o distress_n that_o be_v when_o the_o philistimes_fw-la have_v invade_v his_o land_n do_v he_o trespass_v yet_o more_o against_o the_o lord_n this_o be_v that_o king_n ahaz_n this_o also_o we_o find_v charge_v on_o israel_n 57.17_o isa_n 57.17_o isa_n 57.17_o for_o the_o iniquity_n of_o his_o coveteousnesse_n be_v i_o wrath_n and_o smite_v he_o say_v the_o lord_n i_o hide_v i_o and_o be_v wroth_a and_o he_o go_v on_o froward_o in_o the_o way_n of_o his_o heart_n they_o '_o be_v so_o far_o from_o be_v better_o that_o they_o be_v the_o worse_a for_o god_n afflict_v they_o and_o be_v they_o better_o that_o when_o the_o plague_n of_o god_n be_v go_v out_o against_o a_o place_n as_o at_o this_o time_n it_o be_v against_o this_o city_n yet_o can_v swear_v lie_v cheat_z and_o be_v drink_v they_o know_v not_o but_o that_o the_o destroy_a angel_n may_v smite_v they_o next_o and_o yet_o they_o dare_v provoke_v god_n by_o these_o and_o many_o other_o sin_n woe_n be_v i_o that_o people_n shall_v be_v thus_o unprepared_a for_o death_n will_v nothing_o teach_v these_o but_o bare_a feel_n will_v they_o take_v no_o warning_n till_o god_n touch_v they_o and_o set_v the_o bloody_a cross_n upon_o their_o body_n let_v these_o know_v that_o although_o god_n spare_v they_o a_o while_n he_o will_v not_o spare_v they_o for_o ever_o and_o to_o be_v sure_a he_o will_v put_v all_o into_o the_o last_o draught_n which_o shall_v be_v as_o bitter_a as_o gall_v or_o wormwood_n use_v 2_o in_o the_o second_o place_n see_v the_o lord_n wrath_n be_v at_o this_o present_a go_v out_o against_o we_o for_o our_o iniquity_n let_v we_o all_o i_o beseech_v you_o with_o ezra_n address_v ourselves_o to_o god_n by_o prayer_n and_o fast_v what_o be_v it_o for_o we_o to_o fast_o in_o private_a though_o authority_n have_v not_o command_v it_o when_o it_o be_v do_v by_o the_o command_n of_o the_o magistrate_n we_o seem_v to_o fast_o of_o necessity_n but_o when_o we_o take_v it_o up_o voluntary_o it_o argue_v ingenuity_n nay_o there_o can_v be_v a_o more_o pregnant_a sign_n of_o sincerity_n be_v it_o such_o a_o matter_n to_o forbear_v one_o meal_n in_o a_o week_n well_o however_o we_o think_v of_o this_o duty_n if_o it_o be_v perform_v as_o it_o ought_v with_o supplication_n and_o humiliation_n there_o be_v no_o such_o way_n to_o prevent_v or_o remove_v a_o judgement_n i_o hope_v there_o be_v none_o so_o wicked_a among_o we_o but_o will_v confess_v that_o we_o have_v great_a cause_n to_o humble_v ourselves_o before_o god_n for_o who_o can_v be_v ignorant_a but_o that_o we_o ourselves_o be_v the_o cause_n of_o the_o plague_n which_o be_v now_o among_o we_o it_o be_v true_a sometime_o it_o

and_o yet_o love_n and_o shall_v not_o god_n do_v the_o same_o who_o be_v full_a of_o mercy_n than_o the_o sea_n be_v of_o water_n all_o the_o mercy_n which_o be_v in_o all_o the_o man_n upon_o

child_n and_o he_o offend_v thou_o thou_o correct_a he_o shall_v a_o man_n say_v thou_o hate_v he_o because_o thou_o chastife_v he_o no_o wise_a man_n but_o will_v say_v thou_o love_v he_o and_o therefore_o thou_o punish_v he_o that_o he_o may_v grow_v better_o again_o thy_o child_n have_v a_o disease_n grow_v upon_o he_o which_o if_o it_o be_v not_o prevent_v in_o time_n will_v be_v his_o

appear_v that_o therefore_o thou_o love_v he_o else_o thou_o will_v not_o be_v at_o charge_n with_o he_o so_o god_n find_v cause_n to_o punish_v we_o for_o our_o sin_n shall_v we_o dare_v to_o say_v he_o do_v it_o because_o he_o hate_v we_o god_n forbid_v say_v augustine_n i_o know_v the_o physician_n be_v irksome_a to_o a_o man_n in_o a_o frenzy_n because_o he_o tie_v and_o bind_v he_o do_v he_o

be_v true_a in_o thy_o own_o experience_n why_o shall_v not_o god_n love_v and_o yet_o punish_v use_v 2_o in_o the_o second_o place_n it_o shall_v teach_v every_o man_n to_o take_v heed_n of_o
