the_o speak_n for_o because_o he_o live_v always_o like_o a_o beast_n therefore_o god_n punish_v he_o like_o a_o beast_n and_o do_v he_o deserve_v now_o to_o be_v speak_v of_o in_o all_o age_n for_o heap_v stone_n together_o hereby_o we_o may_v see_v a_o small_a matter_n make_v great_a man_n proud_a and_o they_o will_v be_v praise_v for_o every_o thing_n they_o do_v but_o look_v how_o god_n overthwart_v they_o for_o in_o that_o wherein_o they_o look_v to_o make_v their_o great_a glory_n they_o shame_v themselves_o the_o most_o of_o all_o and_o that_o which_o they_o practise_v to_o exalt_v they_o do_v disgrace_n and_o overthrow_v they_o get_v they_o hatred_n of_o such_o which_o otherwise_o will_v not_o meddle_v with_o they_o sin_n so_o deceive_v they_o like_o the_o blind_a ammorite_n that_o they_o take_v a_o clean_a contrary_a way_n unto_o their_o desire_n as_o we_o mae_fw-la see_v in_o the_o second_o chapter_n of_o the_o book_n of_o genesis_n they_o which_o build_v babel_n say_v 4._o that_o they_o will_v build_v it_o to_o get_v unto_o themselves_o a_o name_n but_o they_o get_v to_o themselves_o shame_n for_o they_o can_v not_o finish_v it_o when_o they_o have_v begin_v it_o but_o be_v confound_v in_o such_o a_o wonderful_a sort_n to_o their_o seem_n that_o they_o know_v not_o what_o they_o do_v so_o sudden_o likewise_o they_o understand_v not_o a_o word_n that_o one_o another_o speak_v so_o when_o nabuchadnezzer_n come_v unto_o himself_o again_o he_o show_v that_o when_o he_o seek_v his_o own_o honour_n and_o glory_n honour_n and_o glory_n both_o depart_v from_o he_o and_o he_o be_v make_v like_o a_o beast_n but_o when_o he_o seek_v the_o honour_n and_o glory_n of_o god_n his_o honour_n come_v again_o and_o he_o be_v make_v a_o king_n this_o will_v pull_v away_o many_o toy_n from_o woman_n back_n if_o they_o do_v well_o weigh_v and_o consider_v with_o themselves_o how_o god_n make_v they_o ridiculous_a by_o that_o which_o they_o do_v wear_v to_o make_v themselves_o amiable_a if_o they_o do_v think_v that_o the_o supersluitie_n of_o apparel_n which_o they_o clog_n on_o to_o please_v the_o world_n by_o the_o secret_a judgement_n of_o god_n do_v not_o please_v but_o displease_v they_o will_v be_v as_o much_o ashamed_a of_o their_o attire_n as_o eve_n be_v of_o her_o nakedness_n will_v they_o wear_v such_o guard_n like_o a_o pedlar_n shop_n upon_o their_o back_n but_o to_o please_v see_v now_o how_o god_n do_v mock_v they_o for_o they_o be_v not_o like_v but_o dislike_v and_o worse_o think_v of_o for_o it_o than_o they_o that_o go_v in_o russet_a and_o seek_v no_o praise_n at_o all_o they_o think_v be_o i_o not_o brave_a other_o think_v be_v she_o not_o proud_a they_o think_v be_o i_o not_o sweet_a other_o think_v be_v she_o not_o light_v yet_o they_o dream_v that_o every_o one_o praise_v they_o as_o nabuchadnezzer_n think_v that_o every_o one_o will_v honour_v he_o for_o his_o palace_n if_o their_o gorgeous_a building_n and_o bravery_n condemn_v they_o before_o man_n how_o will_v it_o condemn_v they_o before_o god_n therefore_o when_o nabuchadnezzar_n say_v for_o the_o honour_n of_o his_o majesty_n he_o shall_v have_v say_v for_o the_o honour_n of_o god_n majesty_n and_o then_o this_o have_v be_v record_v for_o his_o honour_n indeed_o and_o his_o house_n have_v be_v the_o house_n of_o god_n for_o as_o we_o shall_v speak_v and_o study_v and_o labour_n to_o god_n glory_n so_o we_o shall_v build_v also_o to_o god_n glory_n that_o our_o house_n may_v be_v like_o temple_n as_o obadias_n be_v but_o few_o seek_v glory_v that_o way_n they_o have_v rather_o pull_v down_o then_o build_v in_o such_o sort_n thus_o you_o have_v hear_v what_o nabuchadnezzer_n speak_v as_o though_o god_n will_v destroy_v the_o thought_n and_o pride_n of_o such_o builder_n these_o be_v the_o thought_n and_o meditation_n of_o prince_n and_o noble_n when_o they_o behold_v their_o building_n and_o open_v their_o coffer_n and_o look_v upon_o their_o train_n swing_v after_o they_o they_o think_v as_o nabuchadnezzer_n think_v be_v not_o this_o great_a babel_n be_v not_o this_o great_a glory_n be_v not_o these_o the_o treasure_n that_o shall_v make_v my_o child_n scotfree_a be_v not_o this_o the_o train_n that_o make_v i_o reverence_v in_o the_o street_n be_v not_o this_o the_o house_n that_o shall_v keep_v my_o name_n and_o cause_v i_o to_o be_v remember_v and_o make_v they_o that_o be_v child_n now_o to_o speak_v of_o i_o hereafter_o when_o they_o shall_v go_v by_o and_o look_v up_o and_o see_v these_o antike_n and_o knack_n over_o their_o head_n they_o will_v say_v oh_o he_o that_o build_v this_o be_v a_o great_a man_n he_o do_v bear_v a_o great_a sway_n in_o court_n and_o country_n who_o but_o he_o while_o he_o live_v although_o though_o this_o king_n be_v dead_a and_o bury_v yet_o his_o pride_n escape_v and_o come_v to_o us._n nabuchadnezzer_n have_v child_n yet_o alive_a which_o build_v as_o high_a as_o he_o go_v as_o brave_a as_o he_o spend_v as_o vain_o as_o he_o and_o be_v as_o proud_a and_o insolent_a as_o he_o although_o they_o be_v not_o king_n nor_o duke_n nor_o knight_n nor_o yet_o good_a squire_n look_v upon_o their_o palace_n and_o then_o consider_v with_o thyself_o and_o think_v whether_o they_o be_v of_o nabuchadnezzers_n brood_n be_v not_o this_o great_a babel_n and_o be_v not_o nabuchadnezzer_n lord_n of_o it_o oh_o if_o they_o may_v live_v to_o walk_v in_o their_o gallery_n still_o they_o will_v never_o desire_v any_o other_o heaven_n but_o nabuchadnezzer_n have_v show_v the_o way_n before_o they_o and_o they_o must_v all_o dance_v after_o he_o though_o they_o be_v as_o mighty_a though_o they_o be_v mighty_a than_o he_o death_n will_v not_o take_v his_o kingdom_n for_o a_o ransom_n now_o what_o be_v babel_n and_o what_o be_v nabuchadnezzer_n the_o king_n thereof_o now_o babel_n be_v destroy_v and_o the_o king_n which_o build_v it_o be_v lay_v in_o dust_n have_v it_o not_o be_v better_a to_o have_v build_v a_o house_n in_o heaven_n which_o may_v have_v receive_v he_o when_o he_o be_v dead_a the_o name_n of_o these_o palace_n may_v well_o be_v babel_n that_o be_v confusion_n because_o they_o prophesy_v confusion_n to_o they_o which_o build_v they_o for_o their_o foundation_n be_v pride_n their_o wall_n extortion_n their_o roof_n ambition_n and_o all_o the_o stuff_n within_o they_o be_v usury_n bribery_n cruelty_n now_o if_o this_o be_v the_o best_a which_o nabuchadnezzer_n have_v to_o vaunt_v of_o what_o be_v the_o worst_a which_o he_o may_v be_v ashamed_a of_o when_o i_o see_v how_o earnest_a he_o be_v about_o his_o dream_n and_o how_o loose_a he_o sit_v after_o in_o his_o palace_n i_o think_v i_o see_v the_o image_n of_o the_o world_n in_o one_o man_n how_o lively_o do_v nabuchadnezzer_n resemble_v the_o dreamer_n of_o our_o time_n such_o inquiry_n such_o diligence_n to_o know_v god_n will_v that_o a_o man_n will_v have_v swear_v if_o the_o king_n meet_v with_o a_o prophet_n from_o heaven_n that_o can_v tell_v he_o the_o truth_n &_o instruct_v he_o from_o god_n that_o his_o dream_n warn_v he_o to_o amend_v his_o life_n he_o will_v reclaim_v himself_o and_o reform_v his_o realm_n and_o become_v such_o a_o king_n as_o be_v never_o in_o this_o land_n before_o but_o behold_v no_o soon_o resolve_v of_o his_o dream_n but_o he_o be_v ready_a to_o be_v warn_v again_o and_o be_v not_o so_o attentive_a to_o the_o prophet_n as_o he_o be_v to_o his_o dream_n though_o he_o care_v for_o neither_o for_o when_o he_o understand_v that_o his_o dream_n go_v about_o to_o change_v the_o course_n of_o his_o life_n 11._o he_o go_v away_o like_o naaman_n in_o a_o chafe_n and_o care_v no_o more_o for_o his_o dream_n after_o before_o the_o dream_n come_v all_o will_v have_v say_v that_o such_o a_o dream_n will_v have_v humble_v his_o heart_n for_o ever_o before_o the_o prophet_n come_v all_o will_v have_v say_v that_o such_o a_o prophet_n will_v have_v convert_v they_o with_o a_o word_n but_o nabuchadnezzer_n be_v nabuchadnezzer_n &_o if_o any_o other_o dream_n come_v more_o fearful_a than_o this_o yet_o nabuchadnezzer_n will_v be_v nabuchadnezzer_n and_o love_v his_o palace_n better_o than_o paradise_n so_o we_o think_v if_o god_n will_v send_v a_o famine_n upon_o this_o land_n that_o will_v make_v we_o fear_v he_o but_o god_n have_v senta_fw-la famine_n &_o yet_o we_o do_v not_o fear_v he_o if_o god_n will_v send_v a_o earthquake_n upon_o this_o land_n that_o will_v make_v we_o fear_v he_o but_o god_n have_v send_v a_o earthquake_n upon_o this_o land_n and_o yet_o we_o do_v not_o fear_v he_o if_o god_n will_v send_v a_o pestilence_n upon_o this_o land_n that_o will_v make_v we_o fear_v
