poor_a beggarly_a gentleman_n which_o now_o live_v in_o good_a repute_n and_o uphold_v the_o honour_n of_o the_o family_n with_o the_o elder_a brother_n and_o thus_o it_o come_v to_o pass_v oftentimes_o that_o when_o learning_n and_o honesty_n abound_v the_o minister_n be_v contemn_v by_o reason_n of_o his_o birth_n herodotus_n report_v that_o in_o the_o temple_n of_o apollo_n be_v vessel_n of_o gold_n and_o silver_n wherein_o they_o sacrifice_v to_o their_o god_n and_o other_o vessel_n of_o pewter_n and_o tin_n which_o serve_v for_o other_o use_n in_o process_n of_o time_n the_o temple_n be_v rob_v of_o the_o rich_a vessel_n they_o be_v constrain_v to_o use_v the_o mean_a which_o though_o in_o themselves_o but_o mean_a yet_o they_o be_v esteem_v of_o high_o because_o they_o be_v ordain_v for_o holy_a use_n so_o admit_v the_o birth_n of_o many_o be_v mean_a and_o obscure_a yet_o if_o they_o be_v set_v apart_o to_o preach_v the_o gospel_n esteem_v they_o not_o as_o they_o be_v in_o birth_n son_n of_o obscure_a parent_n but_o as_o they_o be_v in_o office_n priest_n of_o the_o most_o high_a god_n know_v that_o none_o dare_v to_o resist_v a_o poor_a bozholder_n the_o mean_a officer_n but_o his_o contempt_n be_v to_o the_o king_n himself_o and_o i_o can_v wish_v that_o our_o contempt_n do_v not_o oftentimes_o arise_v from_o our_o own_o coat_n which_o of_o our_o great_a prophet_n will_v make_v his_o son_n a_o prophet_n and_o match_n into_o the_o house_n of_o other_o prophet_n nay_o as_o many_o lay_v gentleman_n observe_v they_o which_o shall_v uphold_v the_o honour_n of_o our_o coat_n bring_v the_o disdain_n in_o regard_n the_o great_a personage_n in_o the_o church_n disdain_v to_o countenance_v the_o poor_a clergy_n we_o poor_a country_n minister_n be_v the_o leg_n and_o foot_n whereon_o the_o shoulder_n and_o arm_n of_o the_o great_a churchman_n stand_v but_o i_o wish_v these_o to_o remember_v that_o if_o a_o man_n catch_v cold_a in_o the_o foot_n it_o will_v quick_o strike_v up_o into_o the_o head_n and_o so_o if_o contempt_n light_n on_o we_o the_o foot_n it_o will_v soon_o possess_v the_o head_n and_o great_a one_o too_o so_o here_o 1_o cor._n 4.1_o let_v man_n so_o esteem_v of_o we_o as_o of_o the_o minister_n of_o christ_n and_o disposer_n of_o the_o secret_n of_o god_n for_o be_v thou_o behold_v to_o he_o who_o when_o thou_o

of_o he_o who_o when_o thy_o soul_n be_v lose_v in_o adam_n do_v redeem_v it_o out_o of_o the_o pit_n and_o hell_n of_o damnation_n the_o second_o thing_n i_o observe_v in_o this_o text_n be_v the_o
