have_v perform_v great_a cure_n and_o great_a recovery_n and_o do_v great_a wonder_n than_o all_o the_o elixir_n or_o proprietates_fw-la or_o nostrum_n of_o the_o most_o skilful_a and_o renown_a physician_n it_o be_v prayer_n that_o restore_v hezekiah_n from_o a_o dangerous_a sickness_n and_o prolong_v his_o day_n it_o be_v prayer_n which_o support_v david_n under_o all_o his_o trouble_n and_o give_v he_o ease_v in_o his_o great_a extremity_n it_o be_v prayer_n that_o open_v the_o eye_n of_o the_o blind_a and_o eject_v the_o devil_n and_o do_v the_o most_o glorious_a thing_n to_o all_o admiration_n and_o therefore_o we_o must_v apply_v ourselves_o to_o god_n and_o depend_v upon_o our_o prayer_n as_o the_o most_o proper_a and_o specific_a remedy_n in_o affliction_n we_o must_v be_v fervent_a and_o frequent_a and_o importunate_a in_o prayer_n to_o god_n on_o the_o behalf_n of_o our_o friend_n and_o relation_n and_o who_o can_v tell_v whether_o god_n will_v be_v gracious_a to_o we_o that_o our_o friend_n may_v live_v but_o then_o may_v some_o reply_n and_o say_v it_o be_v in_o vain_a for_o david_n to_o use_v prayer_n or_o any_o other_o mean_n it_o be_v to_o no_o purpose_n for_o he_o to_o expect_v the_o recovery_n of_o his_o child_n or_o that_o god_n shall_v answer_v he_o though_o he_o pray_v never_o so_o much_o for_o he_o know_v that_o god_n have_v decree_v the_o death_n of_o his_o child_n and_o tell_v he_o in_o as_o plain_a word_n as_o can_v be_v by_o his_o prophet_n that_o the_o child_n shall_v sure_o die_v and_o why_o then_o shall_v david_n flatter_v himself_o so_o as_o to_o imagine_v that_o he_o can_v do_v the_o child_n any_o good_a by_o his_o prayer_n or_o prevail_v with_o god_n for_o his_o recovery_n why_o shall_v he_o use_v that_o dubious_a language_n as_o who_o can_v tell_v it_o be_v possible_a or_o it_o may_v be_v that_o the_o lord_n will_v be_v gracious_a to_o i_o that_o the_o child_n may_v live_v why_o shall_v he_o stand_v doubt_v or_o suppose_v a_o possibility_n of_o a_o thing_n when_o god_n have_v positive_o declare_v the_o contrary_a to_o which_o i_o answer_v that_o god_n declare_v by_o his_o prophet_n jonah_n the_o destruction_n of_o the_o ninevite_n and_o prefix_v the_o time_n to_o just_a forty_o day_n and_o this_o be_v declare_v with_o as_o great_a positiveness_n as_o the_o death_n of_o david_n child_n by_o the_o prophet_n nathan_n and_o the_o prophet_n jonah_n try_v and_o say_v yet_o forty_o day_n and_o nineveh_n shall_v be_v overthrow_v in_o the_o 3._o of_o jonah_n and_o 4._o v_o and_o yet_o after_o the_o delivery_n and_o promulgation_n of_o this_o sentence_n the_o ninevite_n do_v not_o despond_v or_o utter_o despair_v of_o god_n mercy_n but_o fall_v to_o repentance_n and_o humble_v themselves_o and_o put_v the_o success_n to_o the_o same_o venture_n that_o david_n do_v and_o much_o in_o the_o same_o language_n say_v in_o the_o 9_o v._n who_o can_v tell_v if_o god_n will_v return_v and_o repent_v and_o turn_v away_o from_o his_o fierce_a anger_n that_o we_o perish_v not_o and_o what_o be_v the_o issue_n of_o their_o repentance_n and_o humiliation_n and_o use_v the_o best_a mean_n they_o can_v to_o divert_v god_n judgement_n why_o the_o issue_n be_v that_o by_o their_o repentance_n they_o stave_v off_o the_o judgement_n and_o put_v it_o back_o as_o we_o may_v see_v in_o the_o 10._o and_o last_o ver_fw-la and_o god_n see_v their_o work_n that_o they_o turn_v from_o their_o evil_a way_n and_o god_n repent_v of_o the_o evil_a that_o he_o have_v say_v that_o he_o will_v do_v unto_o they_o and_o do_v it_o not_o and_o so_o in_o the_o 20._o ch._n of_o the_o 2._o of_o king_n god_n order_v the_o prophet_n isaiah_n to_o go_v and_o carry_v to_o hezekiah_n the_o same_o message_n of_o death_n and_o to_o acquaint_v he_o that_o he_o must_v expect_v no_o other_o than_o death_n thus_o say_v the_o lord_n set_v thy_o house_n in_o order_n for_o thou_o shall_v die_v and_o not_o live_v can_v any_o thing_n be_v more_o absolute_a and_o positive_a than_o these_o word_n and_o yet_o hezekiah_n instead_o of_o melancholize_v himself_o with_o the_o thought_n of_o death_n or_o expect_v it_o every_o hour_n turn_v his_o face_n to_o the_o wall_n and_o pray_v unto_o the_o lord_n say_v i_o beseech_v thou_o o_o lord_n remember_v now_o how_o i_o have_v walk_v before_o thou_o in_o truth_n and_o with_o a_o perfect_a heart_n and_o have_v do_v that_o which_o be_v good_a in_o thy_o sight_n and_o hezekiah_n weep_v sore_o in_o the_o 3._o ver_fw-la and_o what_o good_a will_v you_o say_v can_v hezekiah_n pray_v and_o weep_v and_o appeal_n to_o the_o righteousness_n of_o his_o life_n do_v he_o can_v it_o or_o any_o thing_n else_o save_v he_o and_o prevent_v his_o die_a when_o god_n have_v so_o solemn_o decree_v yes_o true_o his_o prayer_n and_o repentance_n do_v he_o so_o much_o good_a as_o to_o prevail_v with_o god_n to_o grant_v he_o a_o long_a lease_n of_o his_o life_n and_o order_v the_o same_o prophet_n that_o have_v just_a now_o tell_v he_o of_o his_o death_n to_o return_v forthwith_o and_o acquaint_v he_o also_o that_o he_o have_v reverse_v the_o fatal_a sentence_n turn_v again_o and_o tell_v hezekiah_n the_o captain_n of_o my_o people_n thus_o say_v the_o lord_n the_o god_n of_o david_n thy_o father_n i_o have_v hear_v thy_o prayer_n i_o have_v see_v thy_o tear_n behold_v i_o will_v heal_v thou_o on_o the_o three_o day_n thou_o shall_v go_v up_o unto_o the_o house_n of_o the_o lord_n and_o i_o will_v add_v unto_o thy_o day_n fifteen_o year_n what_o then_o shall_v we_o say_v that_o there_o be_v any_o change_n in_o the_o divine_a decree_n or_o any_o inconstancy_n in_o god_n or_o that_o he_o be_v worse_a than_o his_o word_n when_o he_o thus_o positive_o denounce_v judgement_n and_o yet_o suspend_v it_o god_n forbid_v say_v the_o apostle_n yea_o let_v god_n be_v true_a but_o every_o man_n a_o liar_n as_o it_o be_v write_v that_o thou_o may_v be_v justify_v in_o thy_o say_n and_o therefore_o for_o the_o clear_n of_o god_n from_o all_o imputation_n of_o falsehood_n or_o mutability_n in_o these_o instance_n of_o his_o judgement_n denounce_v against_o sinner_n without_o any_o actual_a execution_n we_o be_v to_o understand_v that_o those_o threaten_n of_o god_n in_o scripture_n which_o run_v in_o a_o absolute_a form_n have_v a_o condition_n imply_v that_o be_v nineveh_n shall_v be_v destroy_v and_o hezekiah_n shall_v die_v except_o they_o repent_v so_o that_o god_n do_v still_o reserve_v a_o power_n of_o revocation_n and_o put_v in_o a_o conditional_a clause_n of_o repentance_n which_o though_o it_o be_v not_o express_v yet_o be_v always_o to_o be_v understand_v and_o therefore_o where_o god_n threaten_n of_o death_n and_o destruction_n seem_v most_o peremptory_a and_o final_a we_o be_v yet_o to_o attempt_v the_o divert_v and_o prevent_v they_o by_o our_o prayer_n and_o repentance_n we_o be_v to_o use_v the_o mean_n and_o as_o we_o say_v leave_v the_o success_n to_o god_n for_o who_o know_v but_o the_o lord_n may_v be_v gracious_a but_o if_o god_n will_v not_o hear_v our_o prayer_n nor_o accept_v our_o repentance_n as_o he_o do_v neither_o in_o the_o present_a case_n of_o david_n child_n yet_o we_o be_v to_o use_v the_o most_o proper_a mean_n and_o to_o try_v all_o the_o way_n imaginable_a to_o pacify_v god_n anger_n and_o to_o appease_v his_o wrath_n and_o still_o to_o go_v on_o pray_v and_o repent_v as_o david_n do_v we_o be_v not_o to_o despond_v of_o mercy_n or_o to_o despair_v of_o success_n but_o at_o the_o very_a last_o push_n and_o the_o utmost_a extremity_n of_o affliction_n to_o say_v who_o can_v tell_v but_o the_o lord_n will_v be_v gracious_a and_o thus_o i_o have_v deliver_v to_o you_o the_o just_a reason_n why_o david_n mourn_v so_o exceed_o for_o his_o child_n when_o it_o lay_v upon_o a_o bed_n of_o sickness_n and_o languish_v as_o first_o consider_v that_o his_o own_o sin_n be_v the_o chief_a and_o declare_a cause_n of_o his_o child_n be_v grievous_a and_o desperate_a sickness_n and_o second_o upon_o the_o account_n of_o that_o natural_a affection_n which_o be_v in_o all_o parent_n towards_o their_o child_n which_o move_v their_o bowel_n to_o pity_n and_o bewail_v they_o when_o they_o be_v in_o misery_n and_o distress_n but_o then_o the_o great_a wonder_n be_v that_o the_o father_n which_o be_v so_o much_o concern_v and_o deep_o immerse_v in_o sorrow_n for_o the_o sickness_n of_o his_o child_n shall_v give_v over_o mourning_n upon_o the_o death_n and_o loss_n of_o it_o that_o his_o sorrow_n shall_v expire_v and_o be_v at_o a_o end_n as_o soon_o as_o the_o child_n be_v depart_v and_o have_v give_v up_o the_o ghost_n but_o now_o he_o be_v dead_a why_o

the_o title_n to_o and_o interest_n in_o they_o but_o reserve_v to_o himself_o a_o power_n of_o revocation_n so_o as_o that_o he_o may_v demand_v they_o back_o at_o pleasure_n he_o only_o give_v we_o the_o use_n and_o comfort_n of_o they_o for_o a_o time_n but_o never_o part_n with_o the_o propriety_n or_o resign_v up_o all_o his_o claim_n to_o they_o and_o beside_o we_o shall_v consider_v that_o although_o god_n do_v put_v those_o child_n into_o our_o power_n and_o under_o our_o jurisdiction_n which_o he_o be_v please_v to_o give_v we_o yet_o that_o parent_n have_v not_o that_o absolute_a power_n over_o their_o child_n that_o god_n have_v nor_o be_v they_o whole_o at_o their_o disposal_n as_o to_o the_o great_a issue_n of_o life_n and_o death_n which_o be_v only_o in_o god_n hand_n and_o therefore_o though_o we_o may_v look_v upon_o our_o child_n as_o our_o own_o as_o be_v flesh_n of_o our_o flesh_n and_o bone_n of_o our_o bone_n though_o we_o may_v appropriate_v they_o to_o ourselves_o and_o reckon_v we_o have_v the_o best_a title_n to_o they_o of_o all_o our_o possession_n yet_o still_o god_n retain_v the_o supreme_a right_n and_o have_v the_o first_o and_o old_a title_n to_o they_o and_o we_o be_v only_o depute_v by_o god_n to_o be_v the_o overseer_n and_o guardian_n of_o our_o child_n and_o therefore_o as_o god_n be_v please_v to_o commit_v our_o child_n to_o our_o care_n for_o some_o time_n yet_o when_o he_o do_v not_o like_a they_o shall_v be_v any_o long_o under_o our_o tuition_n he_o do_v in_o mercy_n and_o kindness_n to_o they_o take_v they_o away_o when_o he_o see_v it_o not_o good_a for_o they_o to_o continue_v with_o we_o he_o then_o to_o show_v his_o authority_n remove_v they_o from_o we_o and_o call_v they_o home_o and_o therefore_o parent_n will_v do_v well_o to_o consider_v that_o god_n have_v more_o right_a to_o their_o child_n than_o themselves_o and_o that_o they_o be_v absolute_o at_o his_o disposal_n but_o not_o at_o they_o that_o they_o have_v not_o that_o power_n of_o life_n and_o death_n over_o their_o child_n which_o god_n have_v and_o therefore_o parent_n have_v no_o reason_n to_o be_v in_o that_o hurricane_a and_o storm_n of_o passion_n upon_o the_o loss_n of_o their_o child_n unless_o they_o be_v trouble_v that_o god_n shall_v have_v his_o will_n more_o than_o they_o have_v they_o unless_o they_o be_v grieve_v that_o god_n shall_v take_v upon_o he_o to_o dispose_v of_o their_o child_n without_o their_o consent_n and_o like_n which_o argue_v a_o great_a impiety_n of_o mind_n as_o if_o they_o think_v that_o god_n be_v either_o unjust_a in_o take_v away_o the_o child_n from_o their_o right_a owner_n or_o unmerciful_a in_o not_o spare_v of_o their_o life_n which_o be_v a_o great_a comfort_n to_o they_o than_o all_o other_o enjoyment_n whereas_o it_o will_v be_v much_o better_a and_o tend_v to_o hush_v and_o silence_v all_o the_o sorrow_n of_o parent_n for_o the_o loss_n of_o their_o child_n to_o consider_v that_o they_o be_v but_o under-proprietors_a of_o their_o child_n and_o that_o they_o come_v first_o from_o god_n before_o they_o come_v to_o they_o and_o that_o as_o god_n be_v the_o donour_n of_o they_o so_o he_o may_v well_o be_v allow_v the_o disposal_n of_o they_o whether_o for_o life_n or_o death_n and_o beside_o it_o shall_v be_v consider_v that_o god_n will_v be_v and_o aught_o to_o be_v supreme_a and_o master_n of_o we_o and_o that_o we_o shall_v patient_o leave_v they_o to_o god_n will_v and_o pleasure_n when_o he_o do_v not_o think_v fit_a to_o leave_v they_o to_o
