possession_n of_o my_o sin_n i_o be_o so_o wrap_v in_o they_o as_o i_o can_v get_v out_o of_o they_o here_o job_n acknowledge_v that_o god_n have_v just_a cause_n to_o scourge_v he_o but_o yet_o for_o all_o that_o he_o cease_v not_o to_o be_v out_o of_o patience_n and_o to_o chafe_v and_o therefore_o so_o much_o the_o more_o ought_v we_o to_o stand_v upon_o our_o guard_n see_v that_o he_o which_o be_v the_o singular_a mirror_n of_o patience_n be_v nevertheless_o provoke_v too_o such_o temptation_n but_o now_o let_v we_o come_v to_o know_v why_o he_o speak_v of_o the_o sin_n of_o his_o youth_n there_o be_v two_o reason_n the_o one_o be_v because_o that_o in_o that_o age_n the_o lust_n be_v see_v to_o be_v whote_v and_o for_o that_o cause_n also_o it_o be_v say_v in_o the_o psalm_n how_o shall_v a_o young_a man_n order_v his_o way_n even_o by_o keep_v thy_o word_n why_o be_v there_o more_o speak_v of_o young_a folk_n rather_o than_o of_o other_o it_o be_v because_o that_o man_n nature_n which_o be_v always_o sinful_a and_o wicked_a do_v then_o cast_v up_o his_o great_a froth_n and_o have_v then_o most_o boil_a affection_n and_o therefore_o have_v need_n of_o strong_a bridle_n forsomuch_o then_o as_o man_n commit_v most_o fault_n in_o their_o youth_n job_n speak_v precise_o there_o of_o and_o here_o you_o see_v also_o why_o david_n say_v lord_n remember_v not_o the_o fault_n of_o my_o youth_n he_o speak_v express_o of_o that_o age_n because_o he_o know_v he_o pass_v it_o not_o without_o offend_v god_n many_o way_n for_o there_o be_v great_a unadvisedness_n and_o unruly_a lust_n wherewith_o a_o young_a man_n be_v blind_v insomuch_o that_o he_o think_v that_o nothing_o be_v unpossible_a to_o he_o there_o be_v no_o staidness_n to_o rule_v he_o withal_o but_o there_o be_v excess_n of_o overween_a and_o such_o other_o like_o thing_n and_o so_o you_o see_v one_o reason_n why_o the_o sin_n of_o youth_n be_v speak_v of_o here_o the_o second_o reason_n be_v that_o job_n mean_v to_o declare_v that_o god_n bring_v all_o his_o sin_n too_o remembrance_n as_o if_o he_o shall_v frame_v a_o indictment_n of_o all_o the_o fault_n that_o he_o have_v do_v ever_o since_o he_o be_v a_o child_n and_o in_o so_o do_v he_o complain_v of_o overgreat_a rigour_n as_o if_o he_o shall_v say_v lord_n though_o i_o have_v erewhiles_o do_v amiss_o well_o thou_o have_v be_v so_o gracious_a to_o i_o as_o too_o bring_v i_o back_o and_o to_o reform_v i_o to_o thy_o service_n wherefore_o then_o do_v thou_o gather_v a_o beadroll_n of_o my_o fault_n which_o ought_v to_o have_v be_v forget_v wherefore_o come_v thou_o to_o lay_v they_o before_o i_o again_o see_v thou_o have_v pardon_v i_o they_o be_v it_o meet_v that_o i_o shall_v be_v entangle_v in_o they_o new_a again_o you_o see_v then_o whereat_o job_n amed_z and_o hereby_o we_o be_v teach_v that_o when_o god_n write_v bitter_o against_o we_o that_o be_v to_o say_v when_o he_o show_v we_o all_o the_o sign_n of_o rigour_n and_o that_o we_o be_v loathsome_a in_o his_o sight_n we_o must_v not_o think_v we_o have_v gain_v aught_o by_o find_v fault_n with_o he_o for_o we_o have_v well_o deserve_v much_o more_o and_o that_o be_v the_o point_n that_o we_o must_v always_o come_v back_o unto_o furthermore_o of_o who_o be_v it_o long_o that_o god_n write_v bitter_o against_o we_o and_o that_o he_o use_v not_o his_o accustom_a sweetness_n which_o he_o be_v wont_a to_o use_v towards_o those_o that_o be_v he_o of_o who_o be_v it_o long_o say_v i_o that_o he_o show_v not_o himself_o so_o sweet_a but_o of_o ourselves_o for_o god_n press_v of_o we_o with_o his_o judgement_n be_v because_o he_o see_v well_o that_o we_o have_v need_n of_o such_o and_o so_o vehement_a a_o remedy_n and_o for_o proof_n thereof_o it_o be_v no_o easy_a matter_n to_o meeken_fw-ge a_o man_n that_o be_v so_o give_v to_o pride_n god_n then_o write_v bitter_o against_o we_o to_o the_o end_n we_o shall_v be_v utter_o abash_v and_o yet_o in_o the_o mean_a while_o he_o cease_v not_o to_o receive_v we_o to_o mercy_n true_a it_o be_v that_o he_o will_v hide_v himself_o for_o a_o time_n as_o he_o hide_v himself_o from_o job_n according_a as_o he_o will_v say_v hereafter_o wherefore_o hide_v thou_o thy_o face_n from_o i_o but_o let_v we_o mark_v that_o after_o god_n have_v hide_v his_o face_n away_o so_o for_o a_o season_n he_o will_v show_v himself_o gracious_a and_o pitiful_a towards_o we_o yea_o very_o when_o he_o perceive_v it_o to_o be_v meet_a for_o we_o it_o be_v true_a that_o he_o make_v delay_n and_o let_v we_o linger_v in_o pain_n but_o he_o will_v help_v we_o in_o convenient_a season_n then_o let_v we_o mark_v that_o whensoever_o god_n write_v bitter_o against_o we_o it_o be_v to_o assuage_v the_o misery_n within_o a_o while_n after_o according_a as_o it_o be_v his_o office_n to_o put_v we_o into_o the_o grave_n and_o too_o pull_v we_o out_o again_o they_o that_o abide_v in_o condemnation_n have_v no_o will_n to_o come_v to_o god_n mercy_n and_o to_o the_o redemption_n which_o he_o have_v purchase_v for_o we_o and_o that_o be_v the_o cause_n why_o they_o be_v shut_v out_o in_o the_o mean_a time_n we_o have_v whereof_o to_o thank_v god_n hearty_o for_o somuch_o as_o we_o see_v that_o be_v worthy_a too_o be_v condemn_v at_o his_o hand_n we_o be_v nevertheless_o acquit_v see_v how_o god_n allure_v we_o daily_o when_o we_o come_v too_o a_o sermon_n there_o he_o show_v we_o what_o we_o be_v and_o what_o our_o sin_n and_o vice_n be_v there_o he_o condemn_v we_o and_o daily_o pronounce_v many_o sentence_n against_o we_o insomuch_o that_o we_o can_v open_v the_o holy_a scripture_n but_o we_o shall_v find_v some_o condemnation_n there_o in_o every_o leaf_n on_o the_o other_o side_n we_o can_v so_o cover_v our_o vice_n but_o god_n will_v show_v we_o they_o behold_v thou_o have_v do_v such_o a_o sault_n behold_v thou_o haste_v commit_v such_o a_o sin_n see_v i_o

let_v we_o assure_v ourselves_o he_o do_v we_o no_o wrong_n therein_o neither_o have_v we_o any_o cause_n too_o reply_n against_o he_o but_o we_o have_v so_o much_o the_o more_o cause_n too_o bliss_n

the_o further_o draw_v back_o from_o he_o wherefore_o we_o see_v that_o job_n be_v a_o man_n of_o wonderful_a virtue_n see_v that_o in_o the_o midst_n of_o such_o riches_n he_o have_v not_o his_o

can_v not_o attain_v to_o be_v full_a equal_a with_o he_o yet_o every_o one_o of_o we_o shall_v look_v to_o himself_o and_o go_v on_o forward_o to_o the_o mark_n that_o be_v set_v afore_o he_o

a_o man_n shall_v have_v seek_v throughout_o all_o the_o poor_a man_n in_o the_o world_n hardly_o shall_v he_o find_v one_o that_o shall_v come_v any_o thing_n near_o this_o man_n see_v then_o that_o the_o case_n be_v so_o let_v we_o mark_v that_o riches_n of_o themselves_o and_o of_o their_o own_o nature_n be_v not_o to_o be_v condemn_v and_o special_o that_o it_o be_v a_o great_a blasphemy_n

from_o god_n therefore_o when_o a_o man_n condemn_v they_o he_o set_v himself_o against_o god_n and_o further_o it_o behove_v we_o too_o mark_n that_o god_n must_v needs_o work_v far_o more_o marvellous_o in_o a_o rich_a man_n than_o in_o a_o poor_a man_n as_o i_o have_v say_v afore_o for_o i_o have_v already_o show_v the_o difficulty_n that_o a_o man_n have_v to_o maintain_v himself_o in_o simplicity_n and_o uprightness_n when_o he_o have_v abundance_n of_o good_n then_o have_v god_n need_v to_o utter_v a_o singular_a force_n of_o his_o holy_a spirit_n to_o preserve_v rich_a man_n from_o corrupt_v of_o themselves_o but_o if_o a_o man_n despise_v such_o a_o grace_n of_o god_n do_v he_o not_o lift_v up_o himself_o against_o god_n hereby_o than_o we_o be_v warn_v not_o to_o condemn_v riches_n in_o themselves_o like_o also_o as_o we_o see_v how_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n have_v show_v we_o by_o match_v the_o poor_a and_o the_o rich_a together_o in_o the_o kingdom_n of_o heaven_n when_o he_o speak_v of_o lazarus_n in_o saint_n luke_n he_o say_v there_o that_o the_o angel_n carry_v lazarus_n for_o albeit_o that_o he_o be_v a_o outcast_n among_o man_n &_o a_o poor_a creature_n of_o who_o no_o account_n be_v make_v in_o somuch_o that_o he_o be_v forsake_v of_o all_o man_n yet_o nevertheless_o behold_v how_o the_o angel_n carry_v his_o soul_n into_o abraham_n bosom_n and_o what_o be_v this_o abraham_n a_o man_n rich_a both_o in_o cattle_n and_o in_o money_n and_o in_o household_n and_o in_o all_o other_o thing_n save_v house_n and_o land_n for_o those_o be_v not_o lawful_a for_o he_o to_o have_v because_o it_o behove_v he_o to_o tarry_v god_n leisure_n till_o he_o give_v he_o the_o land_n of_o canaan_n to_o inherit_v true_a it_o be_v that_o he_o purchase_v a_o bury_a place_n but_o he_o have_v not_o any_o inheritance_n notwithstanding_o that_o his_o movable_n be_v very_o great_a therefore_o when_o we_o see_v the_o soul_n of_o lazarus_n carry_v by_o angel_n into_o the_o bosom_n of_o abraham_n who_o be_v the_o father_n of_o the_o faithful_a we_o perceive_v that_o god_n of_o his_o infinite_a grace_n and_o goodness_n call_v both_o rich_fw-fr and_o poor_a to_o salvation_n and_o unto_o this_o purpose_n make_v that_o also_o which_o s._n paul_n say_v namely_o that_o god_n will_v have_v all_o man_n to_o be_v save_v for_o he_o

thus_o you_o see_v what_o we_o have_v to_o mark_v yet_o for_o all_o this_o the_o rich_a man_n must_v not_o flatter_v themselves_o but_o rather_o know_v how_o they_o stand_v as_o it_o be_v upon_o you_o where_o they_o may_v soon_o slide_v and_o that_o they_o be_v as_o it_o be_v among_o thorn_n so_o as_o it_o behove_v they_o to_o look_v diligent_o to_o themselves_o for_o be_v prick_v lo_o how_o each_o

they_o according_a to_o our_o small_a capacity_n assure_v ourselves_o that_o god_n do_v not_o any_o thing_n without_o reason_n no_o not_o although_o the_o same_o be_v not_o know_v unto_o we_o at_o the_o first_o dash_n for_o god_n do_v not_o always_o utter_v a_o present_a reason_n in_o his_o work_n so_o as_o man_n may_v perceive_v they_o and_o again_o the_o say_a wisdom_n be_v so_o deep_a as_o

this_o shall_v seem_v to_o be_v a_o bymatter_v but_o we_o must_v mark_v that_o when_o we_o be_v put_v in_o mind_n of_o the_o common_a order_n which_o god_n keep_v in_o governiug_v his_o creature_n it_o be_v to_o the_o end_n that_o we_o shall_v apply_v it_o all_o whole_o to_o our_o own_o use_n for_o when_o we_o have_v run_v up_o and_o down_o &_o traverse_v from_o one_o side_n to_o another_o we_o

be_v great_o too_o the_o deface_a of_o my_o glory_n and_o majesty_n you_o see_v then_o what_o job_n chief_a meaning_n be_v furthermore_o we_o have_v too_o mark_n that_o this_o present_a sentence_n

infinite_a goodness_n in_o that_o he_o think_v so_o upon_o his_o creature_n and_o that_o he_o vouchsafe_v too_o have_v a_o care_n of_o they_o too_o guide_v they_o and_o to_o govern_v they_o if_o you_o

have_v so_o dispose_v all_o thing_n to_o serve_v we_o and_o to_o succour_v our_o necessity_n it_o seem_v that_o god_n bear_v we_o such_o a_o love_n as_o he_o put_v all_o that_o he_o have_v under_o

than_o if_o we_o have_v any_o thing_n of_o our_o own_o that_o can_v provoke_v he_o to_o do_v we_o good_a thus_o you_o see_v david_n plain_n mean_v and_o this_o thing_n be_v special_o fulfil_v in_o

how_o job_n turn_v god_n providence_n quite_o upside_o down_o and_o that_o in_o stead_n of_o comfort_v and_o cheer_v himself_o therewith_o he_o will_v fain_v that_o god_n be_v far_o of_o what_o be_v

for_o god_n to_o punish_v we_o and_o to_o press_v so_o upon_o we_o too_o the_o intent_n too_o pluck_v we_o back_o from_o our_o sin_n and_o to_o show_v himself_o to_o be_v our_o judge_n and_o that_o we_o shall_v learn_v to_o be_v subject_a unto_o he_o we_o see_v then_o how_o thankless_a man_n be_v sith_o they_o turn_v the_o good_a turn_n upside_o down_o which_o god_n do_v to_o they_o and_o moreover_o let_v we_o understand_v that_o if_o it_o befall_v unto_o job_n to_o be_v so_o tempt_v as_o he_o wish_v god_n away_o from_o he_o the_o like_a temptation_n may_v well_o happen_v unto_o we_o not_o only_o to_o shake_v we_o but_o also_o to_o put_v we_o to_o such_o a_o plunge_n as_o we_o shall_v be_v quite_o overthrow_v then_o must_v man_n be_v well_o advise_v to_o fence_v themselves_o

and_o as_o it_o be_v to_o keep_v watch_n and_o ward_n over_o our_o life_n and_o too_o have_v a_o fatherly_a âª_o care_v of_o we_o as_o we_o can_v never_o magnify_v his_o grace_n to_o much_o yea_o and_o when_o he_o punish_v we_o for_o our_o sin_n let_v we_o assure_v ourselves_o that_o his_o chasten_n of_o we_o be_v not_o for_o that_o we_o be_v worthy_a of_o it_o there_o be_v no_o cause_n why_o

like_a befall_v to_o job_n child_n but_o as_o i_o have_v say_v already_o we_o must_v not_o have_v a_o eye_n to_o person_n here_o we_o must_v not_o only_o receive_v the_o doctrine_n which_o be_v that_o as_o oft_o as_o god_n stretch_v out_o his_o arm_n too_o punish_v the_o sin_n of_o the_o world_n there_o be_v none_o of_o we_o all_o but_o he_o ought_v to_o tremble_v and_o whensoever_o we_o shall_v have_v missebehave_v ourselves_o unto_o god_n know_v that_o he_o chastize_v we_o by_o other_o man_n harm_n and_o there_o behold_v and_o after_o a_o sort_n feel_v how_o terrible_a his_o wrath_n be_v upon_o all_o such_o as_o advance_v themselves_o to_o resist_v he_o and_o here_o you_o see_v why_o saint_n paul_n turn_v his_o speech_n to_o the_o faithful_a say_v be_v you_o not_o deceive_v by_o vain_a word_n for_o by_o reason_n of_o these_o thing_n be_v god_n wrath_n wont_a to_o come_v upon_o the_o unbeliever_n true_a it_o be_v that_o man_n flatter_v themselves_o by_o discountenance_v of_o their_o sin_n according_a as_o we_o see_v how_o these_o devilish_a scoffer_n and_o jester_n do_v cloak_v they_o at_o this_o day_n so_o that_o now_o a_o day_n if_o a_o man_n speak_v of_o lechery_n it_o

have_v we_o too_o be_v merry_a with_o it_o you_o see_v then_o after_o what_o manner_n man_n become_v brutish_a and_o spew_v out_o their_o blasphemy_n against_o god_n and_o how_o they_o seek_v nothing_o else_o but_o shift_n to_o flatter_v themselves_o in_o their_o own_o fault_n and_o evil_a do_n and_o for_o this_o cause_n saint_n paul_n say_v my_o friend_n let_v not_o man_n deceive_v you_o with_o such_o heathenish_a talk_n he_o say_v not_o for_o the_o wrath_n of_o god_n shall_v come_v upon_o you_o you_o shall_v be_v overwhelm_v by_o it_o but_o he_o say_v learn_v to_o know_v that_o which_o god_n show_v you_o have_v very_o fair_a mirror_n as_o oft_o as_o god_n chastize_v the_o whoremonger_n the_o unbeliever_n the_o disobedient_a the_o stubborn_a and_o all_o such_o kind_n of_o

the_o end_n we_o may_v know_v that_o god_n send_v all_o rebel_n to_o the_o place_n of_o their_o iniquity_n and_o true_a it_o be_v that_o some_o be_v to_o be_v find_v so_o foolish_a and_o madbrayn_v as_o they_o can_v find_v in_o their_o heart_n to_o maintain_v the_o case_n of_o the_o wicked_a against_o god_n but_o so_o soon_o as_o god_n shall_v lay_v his_o hand_n upon_o his_o creature_n let_v we_o learn_v to_o confess_v that_o he_o be_v righteous_a notwithstanding_o that_o we_o know_v not_o wherefore_o he_o do_v it_o and_o this_o be_v according_a to_o that_o we_o have_v declare_v more_o at_o large_a already_o namely_o that_o if_o any_o notorious_a sin_n be_v punish_v before_o our_o eye_n we_o must_v understand_v that_o god_n warn_v we_o and_o set_v they_o before_o we_o as_o lively_a picture_n according_a as_o saint_n paul_n speak_v in_o the_o ten_o chapter_n of_o the_o first_o epistle_n to_o the_o corinth_n so_o as_o if_o we_o see_v a_o man_n that_o be_v full_a of_o blasphemy_n and_o a_o despiser_n of_o god_n that_o will_v by_o no_o mean_n abide_v neither_o yoke_n nor_o discipline_n but_o be_v altogether_o awlesse_a if_o we_o see_v a_o worldling_n a_o lecher_n a_o rioter_n or_o a_o person_n of_o lewd_a and_o loce_fw-la life_n if_o we_o see_v a_o drunkard_n or_o if_o we_o see_v a_o naughty_a pack_n that_o seek_v nothing_o but_o to_o deceive_v one_o and_o too_o spoil_v another_o of_o their_o good_n and_o if_o god_n perform_v and_o execute_v upon_o such_o a_o one_o the_o vengeance_n that_o he_o declare_v in_o his_o law_n let_v we_o assure_v ourselves_o that_o it_o be_v a_o good_a warrant_n that_o we_o must_v not_o dally_v with_o he_o nor_o surmise_n that_o the_o thing_n which_o he_o have_v utter_v with_o his_o own_o mouth_n be_v but_o scarebugge_n for_o

god_n use_v never_o so_o great_a rigour_n yet_o must_v not_o we_o therefore_o be_v inquisitive_a and_o say_v why_o do_v he_o so_o we_o know_v not_o neither_o must_v we_o presume_v to_o know_v so_o long_o as_o we_o be_v in_o this_o world_n you_o see_v then_o what_o we_o have_v to_o mark_v and_o to_o bear_v in_o mind_n that_o be_v to_o wit_n that_o when_o we_o see_v the_o calamity_n and_o

too_o the_o second_o point_n which_o be_v that_o if_o god_n visit_v we_o in_o this_o world_n and_o make_v we_o to_o pine_v away_o although_o we_o be_v oppress_v so_o mighty_o that_o our_o life_n shall_v be_v more_o tedious_a and_o bitter_a to_o we_o than_o a_o thousand_o death_n yet_o notwithstanding_o he_o still_o give_v we_o time_n of_o repentance_n and_o if_o we_o return_v unto_o he_o out_o of_o hand_n we_o shall_v find_v he_o thorough_o ready_a too_o receive_v we_o and_o that_o be_v will_v make_v the_o dwell_a place_n our_o righteousness_n peaceable_a yea_o very_o if_o we_o come_v unto_o he_o with_o prayer_n and_o bring_v a_o pure_a and_o rightmeen_a heart_n with_o we_o behold_v a_o very_a good_a and_o profitable_a lesson_n for_o thereby_o man_n be_v put_v in_o mind_n to_o acknowledge_v the_o gracious_a goodness_n that_o god_n do_v to_o they_o and_o the_o favour_n that_o he_o show_v they_o in_o that_o he_o suffer_v they_o not_o too_o be_v quite_o cut_v away_o at_o the_o first_o blow_n but_o let_v they_o alone_o still_o in_o this_o life_n true_a it_o be_v that_o such_o a_o languish_a as_o job_n be_v in_o will_v be_v far_o hard_a and_o grievous_a than_o death_n and_o we_o see_v also_o that_o when_o job_n look_v no_o further_o but_o too_o his_o own_o state_n he_o can_v find_v in_o his_o heart_n to_o be_v hang_v for_o you_o see_v he_o have_v so_o speak_v but_o in_o the_o mean_a season_n if_o we_o cast_v our_o eye_n upon_o the_o end_n that_o god_n am_z at_o and_o upon_o the_o mark_n that_o he_o set_v before_o we_o also_o then_o shall_v we_o find_v that_o all_o our_o sorrow_n be_v assuage_v and_o why_o we_o shall_v feel_v that_o he_o have_v yet_o still_o pity_n upon_o we_o put_v the_o case_n that_o a_o man_n feel_v here_o as_o it_o be_v his_o hell_n and_o that_o in_o stead_n of_o be_v comfort_v he_o have_v the_o horrible_a terror_n of_o feeling_n god_n to_o be_v against_o he_o and_o to_o be_v his_o mortal_a enemy_n and_o that_o hereupon_o he_o have_v as_o it_o be_v a_o fire_n burn_v in_o his_o mind_n well_o when_o a_o poor_a man_n feel_v such_o anguish_n and_o therewithal_o do_v in_o his_o person_n suffer_v on_o the_o one_o side_n slander_n and_o on_o the_o otherside_n so_o great_a pain_n and_o assault_n as_o shall_v be_v intolerable_a true_a it_o be_v that_o this_o say_v poor_a man_n may_v at_o the_o first_o brunt_n wish_v and_o desire_v death_n in_o so_o much_o that_o he_o will_v require_v no_o better_o than_o too_o pass_v through_o fire_n water_n and_o sword_n according_a as_o we_o see_v how_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n say_v

he_o for_o it_o but_o we_o must_v reverence_v these_o great_a secret_n which_o be_v far_o above_o our_o capacity_n until_o such_o time_n as_o we_o may_v comprehend_v that_o which_o be_v hide_v from_o

we_o flatter_v not_o our_o self_n when_o god_n bear_v with_o we_o but_o let_v we_o understand_v that_o by_o that_o mean_v he_o mean_v to_o draw_v we_o to_o repentance_n abuse_v thou_o god_n patience_n say_v s._n paul_n speak_v to_o such_o as_o be_v wilful_a in_o their_o naughtiness_n true_a it_o be_v that_o god_n will_v have_v pity_n upon_o such_o as_o return_v unto_o he_o and_o ask_v he_o

that_o god_n punish_v not_o man_n as_o soon_o as_o they_o have_v do_v amiss_o and_o yet_o it_o follow_v not_o that_o they_o be_v therefore_o acquit_v and_o shall_v never_o be_v call_v to_o account_v

who_o be_v the_o fountain_n of_o all_o goodness_n then_o let_v we_o not_o think_v that_o god_n laugh_v at_o we_o but_o let_v we_o rather_o too_o consider_v that_o his_o discountenaunce_v of_o the_o

no_o further_a knowledge_n but_o of_o our_o sin_n and_o of_o god_n justice_n we_o must_v be_v fain_o too_o rest_v there_o so_o then_o we_o must_v not_o think_v it_o strange_a that_o job_n speak_v of_o

be_v we_o desirous_a i_o say_v too_o taste_v what_o the_o heavenly_a life_n be_v first_o we_o must_v know_v too_o what_o end_n we_o be_v bear_v yea_o even_o according_a as_o we_o be_v sinner_n in_o

into_o this_o world_n and_o be_v as_o noble_a and_o excellent_a creature_n of_o god_n as_o any_o can_v be_v yet_o notwithstanding_o by_o mean_n of_o sin_n death_n have_v as_o it_o be_v abolish_v and_o

we_o enter_v into_o that_o battle_n it_o be_v certain_a that_o we_o shall_v be_v confound_v utter_o you_o see_v that_o the_o cause_n why_o man_n stand_v so_o much_o in_o their_o own_o conceit_n be_v for_o that_o they_o can_v bethink_v they_o of_o god_n justice_n as_o they_o ought_v too_o do_v but_o yet_o must_v we_o come_v too_o that_o point_n howbeit_o when_o we_o shall_v have_v consider_v how_o wretched_a our_o life_n be_v and_o that_o death_n be_v yet_o more_o wretched_a because_o it_o be_v the_o great_a gulf_n that_o serve_v too_o show_v we_o of_o what_o importance_n the_o curse_n be_v which_o god_n pronounce_v against_o we_o with_o his_o own_o mouth_n i_o say_v when_o we_o shall_v have_v consider_v that_o we_o must_v also_o beware_v that_o we_o be_v not_o utter_o swallow_v up_o of_o heaviness_n and_o what_o remedy_n be_v there_o the_o remedy_n be_v to_o turn_v our_o eye_n too_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n for_o the_o mean_a whereby_o god_n enlighten_v we_o in_o the_o mid_n of_o darkness_n be_v how_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n offer_v himself_o unto_o we_o in_o who_o we_o have_v the_o true_a daysun_n of_o righteousness_n now_o than_o if_o we_o have_v that_o regard_n with_o we_o no_o death_n can_v be_v dreadful_a unto_o we_o and_o here_o you_o see_v why_o david_n say_v that_o god_n sheephooj_n shall_v comfort_v he_o in_o the_o shadow_n of_o death_n and_o in_o the_o darkness_n when_o as_o he_o speak_v of_o god_n sheephooj_v he_o mean_v that_o he_o shall_v be_v afraid_a of_o nothing_o so_o long_o as_o god_n show_v himself_o a_o shepherd_n towards_o he_o and_o how_o shall_v he_o show_v himself_o a_o shepherd_n but_o in_o the_o person_n of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n so_o then_o let_v we_o first_o consider_v of_o what_o mind_n job_n speak_v here_o he_o know_v that_o if_o man_n be_v consider_v in_o themselves_o it_o be_v their_o very_a nature_n to_o have_v nothing_o else_o but_o all_o manner_n of_o confusion_n both_o in_o their_o life_n and_o in_o their_o death_n howbeit_o see_v we_o have_v the_o son_n of_o god_n although_o our_o state_n seem_v never_o so_o wretched_a insomuch_o that_o we_o be_v but_o as_o poor_a worm_n subject_a too_o corruption_n and_o rottenness_n yet_o come_v we_o too_o the_o taste_n of_o the_o benefit_n which_o god_n give_v we_o when_o he_o make_v light_a to_o issue_v out_o of_o the_o mid_n of_o darkness_n according_a as_o it_o be_v say_v in_o the_o creation_n of_o the_o world_n that_o god_n turn_v the_o darkness_n into_o light_a see_v we_o know_v this_o we_o have_v too_o rejoice_v in_o that_o by_o the_o mean_n of_o his_o only_a son_n he_o have_v cause_v his_o goodness_n and_o grace_n to_o shine_v forth_o in_o our_o death_n yea_o even_o more_o than_o in_o our_o life_n for_o when_o it_o seem_v that_o we_o shall_v enter_v into_o the_o dungeon_n and_o gulf_n of_o hell_n then_o do_v god_n open_v we_o the_o gate_n of_o his_o kingdom_n and_o even_o then_o he_o make_v we_o too_o enter_v into_o the_o dwell_a place_n whereoutof_o we_o be_v now_o after_o a_o sort_n banish_v and_o christ_n enlighten_v we_o not_o only_o in_o death_n to_o the_o intent_n that_o the_o darkness_n which_o be_v

be_v poor_a blind_a soul_n in_o it_o and_o yet_o in_o the_o mean_a while_n jesus_n christ_n cess_v not_o to_o enlighten_v we_o by_o his_o gospel_n we_o have_v the_o law_n and_o the_o prophet_n which_o be_v as_o burn_a cressette_n too_o we_o and_o we_o have_v the_o gospel_n which_o be_v yet_o a_o far_o great_a light_n yea_o even_o as_o it_o be_v the_o light_n of_o high_a noon_n you_o see_v then_o how_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n will_v be_v a_o sufficient_a light_n for_o we_o both_o in_o life_n and_o death_n so_o we_o look_v unto_o he_o but_o as_o i_o have_v touch_v heretofore_o we_o must_v first_o feel_v what_o disorder_n and_o confusion_n environ_v we_o round_o about_o until_o such_o time_n as_o jesus_n christ_n have_v reach_v we_o his_o hand_n furthermore_o when_o jesus_n christ_n have_v enlighten_v we_o so_o as_o we_o shall_v have_v walk_v in_o hope_n of_o the_o everlasting_a life_n while_o we_o be_v in_o this_o world_n although_o god_n take_v we_o hence_o and_o death_n before_o our_o eye_n yet_o let_v we_o not_o therefore_o cease_v to_o call_v upon_o god_n and_o to_o tarry_v his_o leisure_n till_o he_o comfort_v our_o soul_n in_o his_o own_o kingdom_n for_o they_o

it_o be_v that_o if_o we_o think_v upon_o death_n alone_o by_o itself_o without_o lift_v up_o ourselves_o any_o high_a god_n may_v now_o and_o then_o bring_v we_o to_o the_o same_o point_n that_o he_o

to_o be_v far_o from_o we_o and_o special_o that_o we_o have_v a_o care_n to_o govern_v our_o house_n that_o god_n may_v be_v honour_v both_o of_o the_o child_n and_o of_o the_o husband_n and_o of_o

dismay_v so_o as_o in_o the_o end_n they_o shall_v feel_v that_o god_n have_v forsake_v they_o as_o they_o deserve_v as_o much_o be_v to_o be_v say_v of_o all_o the_o residue_n of_o the_o blissing_n of_o the_o law_n to_o be_v short_a as_o oft_o as_o we_o be_v trouble_v let_v we_o have_v a_o eye_n to_o the_o fault_n and_o humble_v ourselves_o before_o god_n assure_v ourselves_o that_o the_o

notwithstanding_o as_o i_o have_v say_v already_o we_o must_v not_o therefore_o imagine_v that_o god_n hold_v one_o ordinary_a measure_n of_o punish_v offender_n after_o the_o rate_n of_o their_o

where_o it_o be_v say_v that_o god_n will_v curse_v all_o the_o transgresser_n of_o his_o commandment_n and_o that_o he_o will_v show_v his_o favour_n and_o goodness_n towards_o those_o that_o keep_v

show_v that_o god_n execute_v not_o his_o judgement_n all_o after_o one_o rate_n in_o this_o world_n and_o why_o we_o must_v always_o bear_v in_o mind_n what_o have_v be_v say_v heretofore_o that_o be_v to_o wit_n that_o if_o god_n shall_v punish_v those_o that_o have_v do_v amiss_o like_a for_o like_v as_o they_o say_v so_o as_o if_o the_o fault_n be_v great_a the_o punishment_n shall_v be_v

behold_v god_n show_v himself_o to_o be_v the_o judge_n of_o the_o world_n and_o let_v he_o do_v well_o that_o list_v if_o he_o will_v receive_v well_o at_o god_n hand_n there_o will_v be_v no_o

like_v to_o the_o offence_n of_o all_o they_o that_o do_v amiss_o and_o therefore_o it_o be_v requisite_a that_o diverse_a yea_o and_o the_o most_o part_n of_o punishment_n shall_v be_v reserve_v when_o god_n punish_v the_o wicked_a well_o it_o be_v to_o make_v we_o walk_v in_o fear_n and_o wariness_n and_o also_o it_o show_v we_o that_o we_o can_v not_o escape_v his_o hand_n for_o he_o

this_o present_a life_n shall_v come_v to_o account_v at_o the_o end_n that_o be_v to_o wit_n when_o the_o great_a assize_n be_v hold_v lo_o how_o job_n speak_v not_o against_o the_o doctrine_n of_o

to_o take_v profit_n by_o it_o for_o here_o we_o see_v a_o doctrine_n that_o be_v very_o profitable_a for_o our_o edify_n when_o god_n show_v we_o that_o if_o we_o serve_v he_o we_o shall_v not_o

feel_v he_o to_o be_v against_o we_o then_o must_v god_n be_v fain_o to_o give_v we_o another_o life_n which_o be_v that_o he_o knit_v we_o to_o himself_o by_o the_o grace_n of_o his_o holy_a spirit_n so_o as_o he_o may_v live_v and_o reign_v in_o we_o if_o we_o have_v this_o once_o it_o be_v the_o chief_a benefit_n wherein_o we_o can_v joy_v but_o in_o the_o mean_a while_n god_n work_v after_o a_o strange_a fashion_n and_o unknown_a too_o man_n reason_n for_o let_v we_o consider_v what_o the_o state_n of_o the_o faithful_a be_v during_o their_o life_n in_o this_o world_n they_o be_v not_o only_o set_v in_o like_a state_n with_o the_o unbeliever_n but_o be_v make_v much_o more_o poor_a and_o miserable_a for_o if_o a_o man_n look_v upon_o the_o child_n of_o god_n he_o shall_v find_v that_o they_o be_v afflict_v so_o as_o it_o seem_v that_o they_o ought_v to_o be_v cut_v off_o from_o mankind_n as_o though_o they_o be_v not_o worthy_a to_o live_v upon_o the_o earth_n thus_o you_o see_v after_o what_o sort_n god_n suffer_v he_o to_o be_v deal_v withal_o what_o be_v to_o be_v do_v then_o let_v we_o come_v back_o to_o that_o which_o saint_n paul_n say_v to_o the_o colossian_n that_o be_v to_o wit_n that_o we_o be_v dead_a and_o that_o our_o life_n lie_v hide_v in_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n and_o god_n will_v show_v it_o in_o due_a time_n and_o by_o this_o we_o see_v a_o goodly_a similitude_n in_o that_o which_o job_n set_v down_o for_o he_o say_v that_o the_o tree_n fade_v at_o the_o come_n of_o winter_n there_o appear_v no_o more_o greenness_n in_o they_o and_o it_o seem_v that_o all_o be_v dead_a when_o the_o leaf_n be_v fall_v off_o and_o the_o tree_n themselves_o frostebitten_a and_o yet_o for_o all_o that_o life_n cease_v not_o to_o lie_v hide_v both_o in_o the_o root_n and_o in_o the_o heart_n of_o they_o we_o see_v that_o when_o the_o spring_n time_n be_v come_v all_o shoot_v forth_o again_o and_o the_o liveliness_n that_o be_v unseen_a for_o a_o time_n show_v itself_o anew_o now_o if_o god_n show_v we_o this_o in_o the_o tree_n will_v he_o not_o utter_v a_o great_a operation_n towards_o we_o that_o be_v so_o excellent_a creature_n sooth_o when_o saint_n paul_n speak_v of_o the_o resurrection_n he_o reprove_v man_n for_o their_o beastliness_n because_o they_o consider_v not_o how_o god_n do_v show_v we_o as_o it_o be_v natural_a figure_n of_o the_o resurrection_n by_o the_o grow_a of_o the_o corn_n upon_o the_o earth_n look_v upon_o the_o corn_n that_o be_v in_o the_o barn_n it_o be_v dry_a it_o be_v cast_v into_o the_o

both_o of_o wheat_n and_o of_o other_o corn_n yea_o and_o that_o even_o by_o rot_v what_o will_v he_o do_v to_o man_n will_v he_o not_o utter_v a_o far_o great_a work_n in_o they_o now_o then_o be_v not_o we_o senseless_a and_o brutish_a when_o we_o perceive_v not_o after_o what_o manner_n god_n work_v to_o confirm_v we_o in_o the_o hope_n of_o the_o life_n that_o he_o have_v promise_v we_o as_o much_o be_v to_o be_v think_v of_o that_o which_o he_o say_v here_o now_o for_o when_o we_o see_v the_o tree_n which_o in_o winter_n time_n be_v dead_a or_o at_o leastwise_o seem_v dead_a become_v fresh_a and_o green_a again_o in_o the_o spring_n time_n we_o must_v be_v confirm_v in_o that_o which_o god_n declare_v unto_o we_o namely_o that_o although_o our_o life_n be_v hide_v and_o we_o be_v here_o as_o it_o be_v in_o the_o shadow_n of_o death_n yet_o shall_v not_o that_o hinder_v we_o to_o lift_v up_o our_o head_n continual_o and_o look_v for_o the_o resurrection_n that_o he_o have_v promise_v we_o yea_o and_o even_o now_o although_o we_o seem_v dead_a yet_o have_v we_o god_n spirit_n dwell_v in_o we_o which_o be_v a_o sufficient_a warrant_n of_o our_o life_n and_o whensoever_o it_o shall_v please_v god_n
so_o because_o that_o as_o i_o have_v say_v he_o be_v press_v after_o a_o extraordinary_a fashion_n for_o that_o it_o be_v not_o god_n custom_n too_o handle_v man_n so_o rough_o job_n therefore_o have_v some_o occasion_n to_o make_v that_o complaint_n but_o yet_o must_v we_o always_o come_v back_o to_o that_o which_o i_o have_v touch_v namely_o that_o he_o be_v force_v with_o excessive_a passion_n and_o therefore_o hold_v no_o measure_n for_o it_o be_v certain_a that_o if_o god_n have_v list_v to_o have_v punish_v he_o with_o rigour_n he_o can_v have_v find_v exceed_o great_a sin_n in_o he_o and_o have_v make_v he_o too_o feel_v a_o far_o great_a chastisement_n but_o what_o for_o that_o he_o consider_v no_o more_o but_o what_o god_n be_v wont_v to_o do_v to_o man_n and_o thereupon_o make_v his_o complaint_n but_o we_o on_o our_o side_n have_v first_o to_o consider_v that_o we_o be_v far_o off_o from_o the_o perfection_n that_o be_v in_o job._n therefore_o whensoever_o the_o lord_n punish_v our_o sin_n let_v we_o assure_v ourselves_o that_o if_o he_o chastise_v we_o for_o one_o or_o two_o there_o be_v three_o or_o four_o yea_o and_o a_o great_a number_n more_o let_v every_o of_o we_o call_v himself_o to_o account_v and_o when_o we_o have_v well_o examine_v our_o life_n shall_v we_o not_o find_v a_o gulf_n of_o sin_n in_o we_o shall_v not_o every_o man_n be_v

âª_o we_o be_v but_o hypocrite_n and_o dullard_n if_o we_o be_v not_o ashamed_a of_o ourselves_o and_o as_o good_a as_o overwhelm_v with_o confusion_n in_o that_o case_n sith_o it_o be_v so_o that_o

great_a sort_n of_o our_o sin_n yea_o and_o even_o the_o most_o part_n of_o they_o &_o that_o he_o be_v not_o desirous_a to_o punish_v we_o rigorous_o but_o give_v we_o occasion_n to_o bethink_v we_o of_o our_o sin_n and_o leisure_n to_o be_v sorry_a for_o they_o and_o to_o ask_v he_o forgiveness_n of_o they_o thus_o you_o see_v what_o we_o have_v to_o mark_v in_o this_o sentence_n but_o herewithal_o let_v we_o mark_v also_o that_o job_n acknowledge_v his_o own_o sin_n &_o that_o be_v to_o the_o intent_n we_o shall_v not_o think_v that_o he_o mean_v to_o justify_v himself_o heretofore_o or_o that_o he_o do_v as_o these_o shameless_a person_n do_v who_o think_v themselves_o to_o be_v without_o spot_n yea_o &_o that_o god_n be_v in_o debt_n to_o they_o job_n go_v not_o that_o way_n to_o work_v and_o how_o then_o be_v he_o justify_v i_o have_v tell_v you_o already_o after_o what_o sort_n namely_o by_o acknowledge_v that_o which_o god_n do_v too_o he_o but_o yet_o for_o all_o that_o job_n do_v here_o put_v himself_o into_o the_o array_n of_o sinner_n and_o he_o know_v well_o that_o god_n can_v find_v fault_n enough_o in_o he_o neverthelater_o it_o grieve_v he_o that_o god_n shall_v handle_v he_o with_o so_o excessive_a and_o unaccustomed_a rigour_n and_o hereby_o must_v we_o take_v warning_n not_o to_o look_v what_o god_n do_v unto_o other_o man_n for_o that_o be_v the_o thing_n that_o oftentimes_o drive_v we_o to_o impatience_n and_o murmur_a we_o see_v that_o god_n punish_v not_o those_o which_o to_o our_o seem_n have_v offend_v as_o great_o as_o we_o yea_o and_o more_o too_o behold_v say_v we_o god_n bear_v with_o such_o a_o one_o and_o i_o see_v that_o if_o he_o and_o i_o be_v compare_v together_o it_o will_v be_v find_v that_o he_o have_v offend_v more_o than_o i_o thereupon_o we_o conclude_v that_o god_n keep_v not_o so_o even_o a_o hand_n nor_o such_o uprightness_n as_o he_o ought_v to_o do_v or_o if_o we_o be_v ashamed_a to_o blasphâeme_v he_o so_o yet_o cease_v we_o not_o to_o repine_v at_o he_o &_o to_o say_v what_o a_o deal_n be_v this_o wherefore_o do_v god_n punish_v i_o for_o my_o sin_n when_o in_o the_o mean_a while_o i_o see_v he_o let_v other_o alone_a that_o be_v no_o better_a than_o i_o if_o i_o look_v upon_o my_o neighbour_n i_o shall_v find_v they_o more_o faulty_a than_o myself_o and_o yet_o i_o see_v not_o that_o god_n handle_v they_o so_o rigorous_o as_o he_o do_v i_o thus_o you_o see_v how_o man_n be_v grieve_v at_o the_o heart_n when_o they_o look_v here_o and_o there_o but_o what_o it_o be_v a_o fond_a fashion_n to_o pass_v from_o ourselves_o for_o every_o man_n ought_v too_o shut_v his_o eye_n and_o not_o to_o look_v what_o god_n do_v unto_o other_o folk_n let_v it_o content_v we_o that_o he_o be_v righteous_a and_o if_o he_o handle_v i_o more_o rigorous_o than_o those_o who_o i_o take_v to_o be_v more_o offender_n than_o myself_o well_o he_o know_v it_o be_v good_a and_o

he_o furthermore_o we_o be_v great_o to_o blame_v also_o in_o that_o we_o take_v upon_o we_o too_o judge_v our_o neighbour_n for_o we_o enhance_v their_o fault_n and_o lessen_v our_o own_o and_o

and_o which_o worse_o be_v although_o the_o thing_n be_v good_a yet_o be_v we_o so_o malicious_a that_o we_o cease_v not_o too_o condemn_v it_o therefore_o let_v we_o forbear_v such_o manner_n of_o

he_o be_v bind_v unto_o they_o for_o he_o have_v promise_v to_o pour_v out_o his_o spirit_n upon_o great_a and_o small_a as_o he_o list_v to_o the_o end_n it_o may_v be_v know_v too_o be_v a_o free_a

at_o all_o man_n in_o general_n for_o it_o behove_v we_o too_o understand_v the_o rudeness_n and_o weakness_n of_o our_o own_o wit_n and_o the_o true_a mean_a to_o do_v it_o be_v to_o reverence_v god_n secret_n know_v that_o they_o be_v incomprehensible_a and_o too_o high_a for_o we_o to_o attain_v unto_o for_o as_o long_o as_o man_n presume_v upon_o their_o own_o wit_n and_o think_v to_o

come_v be_v that_o we_o must_v reverence_v and_o honour_n god_n secret_n see_v we_o have_v not_o the_o capacity_n to_o comprehend_v they_o in_o so_o much_o that_o we_o have_v no_o more_o to_o do_v but_o to_o acknowledge_v our_o own_o infirmity_n and_o to_o cry_v out_o every_o one_o with_o david_n lord_n how_o high_a be_v thy_o determination_n how_o ought_v we_o to_o reverence_v they_o you_o see_v then_o in_o effect_n what_o eliphas_n mean_v in_o say_v unto_o job_n that_o he_o have_v not_o hear_v the_o secret_n of_o god._n and_o this_o doctrine_n be_v as_o often_o repeat_v and_o as_o

we_o will_v take_v upon_o he_o to_o be_v wise_a than_o his_o fellow_n but_o also_o we_o can_v find_v in_o our_o heart_n to_o acknowledge_v our_o own_o slenderness_n to_o humble_v ourselves_o even_o when_o we_o come_v before_o god_n therefore_o we_o have_v need_v to_o be_v bring_v low_a and_o to_o be_v warn_v as_o the_o scripture_n do_v it_o that_o we_o must_v not_o go_v about_o to_o comprehend_v the_o purpose_n of_o god_n for_o that_o be_v too_o high_a and_o to_o profound_a a_o thing_n for_o we_o what_o remain_v then_o to_o honour_v it_o acknowledge_v our_o own_o rawness_n and_o weakness_n as_o i_o say_v afore_o but_o by_o the_o way_n we_o must_v come_v to_o that_o which_o saint_n paul_n say_v in_o the_o first_o to_o the_o corinthian_n that_o be_v to_o wit_n that_o our_o saviour_n have_v give_v we_o of_o his_o own_o spirit_n whereby_o we_o know_v and_o comprehend_v that_o which_o be_v above_o all_o our_o capacity_n then_o although_o we_o be_v not_o of_o counsel_n with_o god_n yet_o have_v he_o show_v we_o the_o favour_n and_o honour_n to_o disclose_v unto_o we_o that_o which_o be_v unknown_a and_o hide_a from_o we_o how_o be_v that_o there_o be_v none_o that_o know_v what_o be_v in_o man_n but_o the_o spirit_n which_o dwell_v in_o he_o say_v s._n paul_n and_o the_o spirit_n that_o dwell_v in_o god_n be_v give_v unto_o we_o thus_o you_o see_v how_o we_o be_v make_v partaker_n of_o the_o thing_n that_o be_v utter_o separate_v from_o we_o and_o whereunto_o we_o can_v by_o any_o mean_n approach_v mark_v here_o a_o singular_a grace_n which_o we_o ought_v to_o make_v great_a account_n of_o namely_o that_o our_o lord_n have_v enlighten_v we_o even_o we_o that_o be_v wretched_a blind_a soul_n and_o although_o we_o comprehend_v not_o the_o thing_n that_o be_v here_o

they_o true_a it_o be_v that_o sometime_o when_o all_o other_o man_n be_v like_o too_o starve_v for_o hunger_n it_o seem_v to_o themselves_o that_o they_o have_v great_a store_n according_a as_o we_o see_v how_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n show_v in_o the_o example_n of_o the_o rich_a man_n which_o say_v go_v to_o my_o heart_n be_v merry_a take_v thine_o ease_n thou_o may_v sport_v thou_o at_o thy_o pleasure_n for_o i_o have_v store_n of_o good_n lay_v up_o for_o thou_o here_o the_o rich_fw-fr man_n therefore_o may_v well_o trust_v in_o their_o good_n and_o yet_o for_o all_o that_o they_o may_v be_v still_o in_o doubt_n and_o not_o cease_v to_o think_v i_o may_v hap_v to_o fall_v into_o such_o a_o inconvenience_n and_o such_o a_o thing_n may_v light_v upon_o i_o to_o be_v short_a as_o

cark_n and_o care_n or_o at_o least_o wise_a if_o he_o eat_v but_o half_o his_o fill_n himself_o he_o repine_v at_o those_o that_o will_v eat_v and_o why_o he_o be_v never_o well_o at_o ease_n till_o

of_o our_o meat_n and_o drink_v it_o will_v seem_v unto_o we_o that_o he_o go_v about_o too_o starve_v we_o and_o we_o will_v blame_v they_o of_o cruelty_n which_o shall_v do_v so_o and_o if_o a_o

be_v it_o not_o apparent_a that_o god_n have_v blind_v he_o and_o yet_o notwithstanding_o this_o vice_n have_v reign_v in_o all_o time_n therefore_o it_o be_v not_o without_o cause_n that_o eliphas_n do_v here_o set_v we_o down_o a_o judgement_n of_o god_n in_o say_v that_o the_o wicked_a shall_v trot_v up_o and_o down_o after_o bread_n and_o he_o add_v they_o know_v that_o the_o day_n of_o

they_o be_v punish_v for_o their_o cruelty_n revenousnesse_n and_o deceit_n that_o they_o have_v use_v towards_o their_o neighbour_n you_o need_v not_o seek_v far_o for_o the_o cause_n wherefore_o

that_o they_o endure_v proceed_v of_o their_o execute_n of_o tyranny_n against_o poor_a folk_n for_o that_o they_o spare_v they_o not_o but_o the_o plain_a meaning_n of_o these_o word_n namely_o that_o they_o know_v that_o the_o day_n of_o darkness_n be_v in_o their_o hand_n be_v that_o whatsoever_o they_o do_v or_o what_o pain_n so_o ever_o they_o take_v although_o they_o be_v rich_a and_o

have_v herd_n heretofore_o be_v express_v here_o more_o at_o full_a how_o be_v it_o then_o that_o the_o wicked_a be_v never_o satisfy_v although_o they_o have_v gather_v so_o much_o good_n as_o they_o seem_v ready_a to_o burst_v wherefore_o do_v they_o always_o want_v it_o be_v because_o our_o lord_n prosper_v not_o the_o thing_n that_o they_o have_v in_o their_o hand_n for_o like_a as_o a_o man_n may_v cast_v much_o good_n into_o a_o gulf_n and_o yet_o they_o shall_v not_o be_v see_v so_o a_o insatiable_a man_n may_v snatch_v and_o catch_v on_o all_o side_n and_o yet_o not_o cease_v to_o be_v hungry_a still_o and_o this_o come_v of_o two_o cause_n for_o as_o it_o be_v a_o singular_a grace_n of_o god_n when_o we_o can_v content_v ourselves_o with_o a_o little_a so_o as_o we_o call_v upon_o his_o name_n and_o wait_v to_o be_v feed_v at_o his_o hand_n according_a as_o we_o have_v find_v ourselves_o to_o have_v be_v nourish_v by_o he_o heretofore_o so_o on_o the_o contrary_a part_n when_o he_o suffer_v the_o covetousness_n of_o the_o unbeliever_n to_o be_v kindle_v so_o as_o they_o be_v always_o gather_v and_o evermore_o covet_v and_o never_o content_v the_o same_o be_v a_o punishment_n to_o they_o then_o let_v we_o mark_v well_o that_o the_o first_o cause_n why_o the_o wicked_a can_v enjoy_v the_o great_a good_n that_o they_o have_v gather_v be_v because_o our_o lord_n set_v their_o lust_n on_o fire_n and_o suffer_v they_o too_o have_v a_o rack_n within_o they_o that_o never_o cease_v too_o torment_v they_o and_o the_o devil_n still_o kindle_v the_o fire_n by_o god_n just_a permission_n in_o the_o heart_n of_o they_o that_o regard_v not_o he_o thus_o much_o concern_v the_o first_o point_n the_o second_o cause_n be_v that_o like_a as_o god_n increase_v one_o grain_n of_o corn_n to_o the_o nurrish_n of_o those_o that_o be_v he_o and_o make_v it_o to_o multiply_v too_o a_o hundred_o so_o as_o a_o little_a shall_v suffice_v they_o and_o make_v they_o fat_a so_o likewise_o on_o the_o contrary_a part_n he_o curse_v and_o wither_v all_o that_o ever_o the_o wicked_a can_v cram_v in_o they_o shall_v eat_v double_a that_o be_v too_o say_v they_o shall_v gather_v enough_o and_o too_o much_o howbeit_o god_n will_v consume_v it_o every_o whit_n as_o it_o be_v say_v to_o the_o prophet_n and_o all_o shall_v go_v to_o naught_o so_o as_o a_o great_a heap_n of_o good_n shall_v vanish_v away_o in_o a_o minute_n of_o a_o hour_n you_o see_v then_o that_o god_n root_v up_o that_o which_o man_n make_v great_a account_n of_o and_o that_o be_v the_o cause_n why_o the_o wicked_a can_v enjoy_v that_o which_o they_o possess_v true_a it_o be_v that_o they_o will_v be_v proud_a enough_o according_a also_o as_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n show_v in_o the_o parable_n of_o the_o rich_fw-fr man_n that_o have_v enlarge_v his_o barn_n my_o soul_n say_v he_o be_v merry_a for_o now_o have_v thou_o well_o wherewith_o too_o feed_v thou_o behold_v thou_o haste_v such_o abundance_n as_o thou_o can_v never_o want_v those_o
show_v that_o which_o be_v write_v in_o genesis_n namely_o that_o his_o spirit_n shall_v not_o strive_v any_o long_o with_o man_n god_n have_v bear_v with_o as_o outrageous_a wickedness_n as_o can_v be_v and_o when_o he_o see_v that_o man_n abuse_v his_o patience_n after_o that_o manner_n he_o say_v i_o will_v no_o long_o plead_v with_o you_o i_o must_v be_v fain_o to_o put_v to_o my_o hand_n thus_o you_o see_v how_o it_o be_v say_v here_o that_o the_o wicked_a may_v well_o file_v their_o tongue_n to_o justify_v themselves_o for_o they_o can_v good_a skill_n to_o chop_v logic_n with_o god_n but_o shall_v that_o further_o their_o case_n no_o no._n they_o rather_o sharpen_v the_o sword_n and_o god_n must_v be_v fain_o to_o execute_v the_o sore_a justice_n and_o the_o terribler_n vengeance_n upon_o their_o head_n so_o then_o man_n may_v be_v arm_v with_o their_o tongue_n to_o plead_v against_o god_n but_o god_n have_v his_o hand_n arm_v and_o will_v stretch_v it_o out_o of_o heaven_n to_o confound_v all_o such_o as_o shall_v so_o plead_v against_o he_o and_o this_o say_n ought_v too_o touch_v the_o wicked_a more_o than_o it_o do_v but_o what_o hereby_o it_o be_v see_v that_o there_o be_v a_o brutish_a blockishness_n in_o the_o great_a part_n of_o the_o world_n nowadays_o there_o be_v no_o bow_v under_o the_o word_n of_o god_n nor_o under_o the_o correction_n that_o

again_o for_o we_o have_v enough_o in_o the_o holy_a scripture_n wherein_o he_o show_v himself_o to_o be_v judge_n of_o the_o whole_a world_n thus_o you_o see_v what_o we_o have_v to_o mark_v in_o this_o text_n that_o be_v too_o wit_n that_o if_o we_o confess_v our_o fault_n afore_o god_n we_o shall_v be_v forgive_v at_o his_o hand_n but_o if_o we_o stand_v plead_v with_o he_o or_o if_o we_o seek_v lurkinghole_n to_o hide_v our_o iniquity_n we_o shall_v not_o only_o be_v convince_v by_o his_o word_n but_o also_o he_o will_v lay_v so_o rough_a hand_n upon_o we_o as_o we_o shall_v be_v overwhelm_v under_o he_o yea_o even_o without_o any_o remedy_n and_o then_o will_v it_o be_v no_o time_n too_o ask_v forgiveness_n therefore_o let_v we_o take_v the_o convenient_a time_n that_o god_n assign_v we_o while_o he_o offer_v we_o the_o mean_a to_o obtain_v mercy_n of_o he_o by_o his_o gospel_n now_o let_v we_o fall_v down_o before_o the_o face_n of_o our_o good_a god_n with_o acknowledgement_n of_o our_o fault_n pray_v he_o too_o make_v we_o so_o to_o feel_v they_o as_o it_o may_v lead_v we_o too_o true_a repentance_n and_o that_o in_o steed_n of_o harden_v of_o ourselves_o we_o may_v be_v so_o hartbroken_a yea_o even_o before_o he_o make_v we_o feel_v the_o soreness_n of_o his_o wrath_n as_o every_o one_o of_o we_o maybe_o his_o own_o judge_n to_o the_o

and_o so_o let_v we_o all_o say_v almighty_a god_n our_o heavenly_a father_n etc_n etc_n the_o lxxvij_o sermon_n which_o be_v the_o first_o upon_o the_o xxj_o chapter_n and_o job_n answer_v and_o

he_o avouch_v that_o god_n punish_v notthe_v wicked_a but_o let_v they_o alone_o so_o as_o they_o prosper_v but_o we_o have_v see_v heretofore_o that_o we_o must_v consider_v the_o judgement_n that_o god_n execute_v in_o the_o world_n according_a to_o the_o record_n of_o the_o holy_a scripture_n then_o at_o the_o first_o sight_n this_o talk_n of_o job_n seem_v utter_o repugnant_a too_o all_o truth_n but_o we_o must_v remember_v what_o have_v be_v say_v heretofore_o namely_o that_o when_o the_o holy_a scripture_n speak_v of_o god_n judgement_n it_o say_v not_o that_o he_o accomplish_v they_o peremptory_o for_o sometime_o he_o take_v in_o hand_n to_o show_v himself_o judge_v of_o the_o world_n but_o that_o be_v not_o in_o all_o point_n and_o all_o caces_fw-la nor_o yet_o after_o all_o one_o rate_n therefore_o it_o ought_v to_o suffice_v we_o that_o god_n give_v we_o some_o token_n that_o the_o wicked_a can_v escape_v his_o hand_n but_o must_v come_v too_o account_v before_o he_o nevertheless_o god_n do_v sometime_o dissemble_v and_o we_o see_v it_o by_o experience_n so_o than_o it_o behove_v we_o to_o acknowledge_v that_o god_n do_v by_o his_o providence_n govern_v the_o world_n maintain_v and_o preserve_v the_o good_a and_o punish_v the_o wicked_a as_o we_o make_v it_o no_o general_a rule_n that_o all_o such_o
then_o hold_v your_o be_v of_o i_o and_o if_o you_o do_v i_o homage_n and_o know_v i_o for_o your_o creator_n you_o will_v tremble_v under_o i_o now_o when_o he_o have_v thus_o speak_v he_o say_v

there_o be_v great_a and_o more_o excellent_a benefit_n bestow_v upon_o we_o for_o he_o have_v not_o draw_v we_o from_o a_o earthly_a bondage_n but_o from_o the_o depth_n of_o hell_n and_o that_o

it_o be_v true_a that_o thou_o chastize_v i_o and_o i_o know_v and_o thou_o may_v test_n do_v it_o even_o by_o thy_o law_n âª_o and_o it_o be_v true_a also_o that_o i_o have_v endeavour_v too_o walk_v

so_o all_o have_v be_v well_o but_o he_o be_v carry_v away_o by_o the_o pang_n of_o his_o passion_n and_o thereby_o we_o be_v all_o warn_v as_o i_o say_v de_fw-fr afore_o to_o mistrust_v ourselves_o

speak_v once_o and_o that_o the_o prophet_n hear_v these_o two_o thing_n namely_o that_o there_o be_v power_n and_o judgement_n in_o god_n as_o if_o he_o shall_v say_v lord_n thou_o need_v not_o too_o repeat_v thy_o word_n for_o when_o thou_o have_v once_o speak_v the_o word_n it_o ought_v to_o suffice_v we_o and_o it_o be_v as_o much_o as_o if_o we_o have_v a_o hundred_o thousand_o witness_n and_o that_o thou_o have_v never_o cease_v repeat_v and_o rehearse_v the_o thing_n that_o we_o have_v once_o hear_v afore_o we_o need_v not_o to_o have_v our_o ear_n beat_v at_o so_o much_o why_o so_o for_o god_n truth_n be_v so_o certain_a that_o if_o there_o be_v no_o more_o but_o one_o syllable_n of_o it_o it_o be_v all_o one_o as_o if_o he_o have_v a_o great_a volume_n of_o it_o and_o yet_o notwithstanding_o we_o see_v how_o our_o lord_n call_v we_o by_o ratify_v his_o promise_n and_o be_v not_o content_v to_o have_v speak_v once_o and_o away_o but_o put_v we_o often_o in_o remembrance_n of_o the_o thing_n that_o we_o have_v once_o hear_v and_o will_v have_v we_o teach_v his_o goodness_n all_o our_o life_n long_o see_v then_o that_o he_o use_v such_o overabundantnesse_n it_o behove_v we_o to_o acknowledge_v his_o infinite_a goodness_n in_o apply_v himself_o after_o that_o manner_n to_o our_o rudeness_n but_o yet_o must_v we_o not_o take_v such_o a_o boldness_n as_o to_o call_v in_o question_n the_o thing_n that_o he_o have_v speak_v but_o once_o and_o too_o dispute_v whether_o a_o thing_n be_v true_a or_o no_o when_o god_n have_v witness_v it_o unto_o we_o for_o we_o must_v rather_o mark_v how_o it_o be_v say_v unto_o we_o in_o the_o psalm_n that_o god_n say_n be_v as_o silver_n seven_o time_n fine_v in_o the_o furnace_n wherein_o there_o be_v neither_o dross_n nor_o

find_v some_o subtle_a shift_n to_o turn_v they_o another_o way_n there_o be_v no_o such_o thing_n at_o all_o in_o god_n why_o so_o for_o his_o word_n be_v as_o silver_n thorough_o fine_v wherein_o there_o be_v no_o superfluity_n this_o say_v i_o be_v the_o seal_n that_o all_o the_o faithful_a aught_o to_o set_v unto_o all_o the_o thing_n which_o they_o hear_v at_o god_n mouth_n so_o soon_o then_o as_o god_n have_v speak_v any_o thing_n let_v we_o according_a too_o that_o which_o have_v be_v touch_v already_o set_v this_o seal_n unto_o it_o that_o there_o be_v nothing_o but_o truth_n and_o certainty_n in_o it_o for_o there_o be_v nothing_o but_o untruth_n in_o man_n mind_n and_o yet_o god_n do_v we_o the_o honour_n too_o make_v we_o his_o witness_n according_a as_o saint_n john_n speak_v of_o it_o that_o whosoever_o believe_v in_o jesus_n christ_n have_v set_v too_o his_o seal_n that_o god_n be_v soothfast_a so_o then_o see_v that_o god_n do_v we_o the_o honour_n too_o make_v we_o his_o witness_n although_o there_o be_v nothing_o but_o vanity_n in_o we_o so_o much_o the_o more_o ought_v we_o to_o be_v inflame_v too_o receive_v obedient_o all_o thing_n which_o we_o hear_v of_o he_o and_o to_o warrant_v ourselves_o that_o they_o be_v true_a it_o follow_v immediate_o that_o he_o do_v what_o soever_o his_o heart_n desire_v here_o be_v one_o sentence_n more_o which_o be_v very_o true_a if_o it_o be_v right_o understand_v true_a it_o be_v as_o we_o have_v see_v that_o job_n do_v a_o nisse_fw-la in_o imagine_v that_o god_n use_v a_o lawless_a power_n and_o in_o that_o he_o can_v not_o imagine_v otherwise_o but_o that_o god_n be_v mind_v to_o utter_v his_o strength_n with_o such_o violence_n as_o shall_v be_v quite_o void_a of_o all_o reason_n sure_o as_o i_o have_v erst_o declare_v job_n purpose_v no_o such_o blasphemy_n in_o himself_o but_o here_o the_o case_n concern_v his_o former_a pang_n which_o be_v overheadie_o but_o now_o let_v we_o consider_v what_o profit_n redound_v too_o we_o of_o this_o doctrine_n that_o god_n do_v whatsoever_o he_o like_v it_o behove_v we_o first_o and_o foremost_a too_o know_v what_o the_o thing_n be_v that_o god_n desire_v or_o like_v we_o know_v that_o he_o can_v away_o with_o any_o unrighteousness_n and_o therefore_o his_o desire_n or_o like_n must_v needs_o be_v righteous_a and_o full_a of_o equity_n see_v it_o be_v so_o let_v we_o learn_v to_o glorify_v he_o in_o all_o respect_n and_o first_o of_o all_o when_o we_o see_v thing_n out_o of_o order_n in_o this_o world_n and_o all_o seem_v too_o go_v otherwise_o than_o it_o ought_v too_o do_v let_v we_o mark_v how_o it_o be_v say_v unto_o we_o that_o god_n hold_v the_o reins_n of_o the_o bridle_n and_o that_o nothing_o be_v do_v which_o he_o have_v not_o foredetermine_v in_o his_o purpose_n oftentimes_o we_o may_v think_v the_o thing_n to_o be_v very_o strange_a which_o be_v do_v for_o our_o eye_n be_v too_o weak_a sight_v too_o comprehend_v the_o infinite_a power_n of_o god_n what_o be_v to_o be_v do_v then_o let_v we_o conclude_v that_o for_o so_o much_o as_o god_n be_v righteous_a it_o become_v we_o to_o allow_v of_o all_o his_o do_n although_o they_o fall_v not_o out_o too_o our_o like_n and_o although_o it_o seem_v too_o we_o that_o god_n ought_v too_o work_v otherwise_o yet_o let_v we_o subdue_v our_o own_o reason_n and_o hold_v it_o in_o such_o bondage_n as_o we_o may_v always_o confess_v that_o god_n do_v the_o not_o any_o thing_n which_o be_v not_o wrought_v with_o justice_n and_o uprightness_n also_o let_v we_o here_o with_o all_o mark_n particular_o that_o see_v god_n have_v call_v we_o he_o do_v also_o dispose_v our_o welfare_n and_o faluation_n for_o i_o speak_v not_o now_o of_o all_o man_n in_o general_a but_o of_o the_o comfort_n which_o the_o faithful_a may_v gather_v when_o god_n have_v once_o show_v himself_o to_o they_o and_o call_v they_o purposely_o to_o be_v his_o child_n and_o utter_v his_o heart_n unto_o they_o as_o i_o have_v say_v afore_o the_o faithful_a then_o must_v not_o hang_v in_o doubt_n or_o imagine_v that_o their_o salvation_n be_v in_o a_o mammer_v why_o so_o for_o it_o be_v lay_v up_o as_o a_o gage_n in_o the_o hand_n of_o god_n and_o who_o can_v pluck_v it_o away_o from_o he_o therefore_o let_v the_o faithful_a hardy_o brag_v of_o their_o salvation_n and_o why_o for_o god_n be_v almighty_a according_a as_o it_o be_v say_v in_o the_o ten_o of_o saint_n john_n the_o father_n who_o have_v give_v you_o unto_o i_o be_v strong_a than_o all_o to_o what_o purpose_n do_v christ_n speak_v so_o it_o be_v to_o show_v that_o our_o salvation_n depend_v not_o upon_o ourselves_o nor_o upon_o any_o creature_n nor_o be_v let_v loose_a too_o all_o hazard_n but_o that_o god_n keep_v it_o as_o it_o be_v in_o his_o bosom_n and_o that_o forsomuch_o as_o no_o man_n can_v overcome_v he_o we_o be_v sure_a that_o we_o shall_v never_o perish_v and_o why_o because_o god_n have_v the_o order_n of_o all_o thing_n and_o love_v our_o welfare_n in_o such_o wise_n as_o he_o will_v sure_o procure_v it_o and_o thereof_o we_o have_v a_o good_a warrant_n by_o the_o gospel_n and_o which_o more_o be_v we_o have_v a_o sure_a pledge_n of_o it_o in_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n who_o be_v give_v to_o we_o to_o the_o end_n that_o we_o be_v in_o he_o shall_v be_v partaker_n both_o of_o his_o life_n and_o of_o all_o his_o good_n so_o than_o if_o this_o doctrine_n be_v put_v in_o ure_n as_o it_o ought_v to_o be_v we_o see_v it_o be_v not_o only_o true_a and_o holy_a but_o also_o exceed_o profitable_a to_o we_o now_o he_o add_v by_o and_o by_o after_o god_n will_v bring_v too_o pass_v whatsoever_o be_v bathe_v determine_v of_o i_o and_o there_o be_v many_o like_a thing_n in_o he_o here_o job_n use_v the_o word_n that_o be_v expound_v yesterday_o i_o say_v that_o the_o word_n signify_v two_o thing_n that_o be_v to_o wit_n law_n statute_n ordinance_n decree_n

what_o it_o be_v too_o fear_v god_n as_o have_v be_v say_v already_o till_o he_o drive_v we_o too_o it_o by_o force_n you_o see_v then_o that_o man_n become_v stout_a like_o murderer_n until_o god_n have_v well_o tame_v they_o and_o hereby_o we_o see_v that_o it_o be_v more_o than_o necessary_a for_o we_o to_o be_v afflict_v for_o otherwise_o we_o will_v play_v the_o loose_a colt_n and_o we_o will_v not_o know_v what_o it_o be_v to_o obey_v god_n or_o too_o yield_v he_o any_o subjection_n at_o all_o therefore_o he_o be_v fain_o too_o make_v we_o afraid_a by_o the_o affliction_n that_o he_o send_v we_o mark_n that_o for_o one_o point_n the_o other_o be_v that_o the_o faithful_a be_v erewhiles_o so_o astonish_v at_o god_n justice_n as_o they_o be_v overraught_v by_o it_o yea_o and_o so_o overtake_v as_o they_o be_v utter_o dismay_v for_o a_o little_a while_n as_o job_n be_v howbeit_o in_o the_o end_n god_n relieve_v they_o and_o this_o be_v well_o worthy_a to_o be_v note_v for_o the_o devil_n use_v two_o extremity_n that_o be_v in_o we_o the_o one_o be_v our_o carelessness_n insomuch_o that_o if_o god_n draw_v we_o not_o to_o he_o by_o some_o violent_a manner_n we_o fall_v asleep_a in_o our_o sin_n if_o the_o devil_n may_v win_v that_o at_o our_o hand_n he_o be_v well_o pay_v but_o if_o god_n waken_v we_o then_o do_v the_o devil_n labour_n to_o drive_v we_o to_o despair_v but_o it_o behove_v we_o too_o prevent_v such_o policy_n therefore_o let_v we_o learn_v that_o if_o job_n be_v strike_v with_o so_o great_a fear_n the_o like_a may_v well_o betide_v we_o or_o much_o more_o except_o our_o lord_n do_v mortify_v we_o heerewithall_o it_o behove_v we_o to_o mark_v after_o what_o manner_n man_n be_v bring_v to_o the_o say_a fear_n and_o terror_n experience_n show_v that_o the_o same_o fall_v not_o out_o always_o and_o for_o proof_n thereof_o we_o shall_v see_v many_o naughtypack_n that_o cease_v not_o to_o gnash_v their_o tooth_n against_o god_n even_o when_o he_o

their_o heart_n any_o whit_n soften_v by_o it_o no_o they_o become_v more_o spiteful_a and_o wicked_a than_o they_o be_v afore_o insomuch_o as_o thereupon_o they_o fall_v to_o kick_v and_o spurn_v against_o god_n like_o resty_a jade_n see_v then_o that_o affliction_n can_v always_o tame_v and_o subdue_v man_n but_o that_o they_o take_v the_o bit_n in_o their_o tooth_n to_o run_v a_o head_n against_o that_o way_n which_o god_n will_v have_v they_o to_o go_v let_v we_o learn_v thereby_o that_o it_o be_v not_o without_o cause_n that_o job_n say_v here_o that_o he_o be_v afraid_a because_o god_n have_v not_o cut_v he_o off_o in_o darkness_n he_o set_v it_o down_o here_o before_o the_o darkness_n or_o in_o the_o presence_n of_o darkness_n yea_o and_o word_n for_o word_n it_o be_v

they_o must_v acknowledge_v themselves_o to_o be_v as_o they_o be_v that_o be_v to_o wit_n forlorn_a damn_a &_o destitute_a of_o all_o goodness_n and_o this_o must_v we_o be_v thorough_o persuade_v of_o to_o the_o end_n that_o we_o may_v resort_v to_o the_o fountain_n of_o his_o goodness_n &_o grace_n now_o can_v we_o not_o think_v it_o strange_a though_o god_n put_v back_o the_o hypocrite_n &_o wicked_a man_n when_o they_o come_v unto_o he_o for_o they_o come_v not_o with_o a_o willing_a mind_n nor_o with_o a_o pure_a affection_n but_o they_o will_v fain_o shun_v god_n if_o it_o be_v possible_a how_o it_o forasmuch_o as_o they_o can_v shift_v themselves_o from_o he_o they_o come_v to_o he_o by_o compulsion_n but_o what_o a_o come_n be_v that_o therefore_o when_o we_o pray_v unto_o god_n let_v we_o learn_v to_o offer_v he_o free_a eharted_a sacrifice_n and_o let_v we_o come_v to_o he_o with_o a_o willing_a mind_n assure_v ourselves_o that_o without_o he_o we_o be_v destitute_a of_o all_o that_o we_o have_v need_n of_o and_o of_o all_o that_o pertain_v to_o our_o welfare_n furthermore_o let_v we_o not_o doubt_n of_o his_o favour_n and_o mercy_n towards_o we_o see_v he_o have_v promise_v we_o they_o but_o let_v we_o always_o believe_v that_o he_o be_v ever_o ready_a to_o receive_v we_o and_o will_v not_o be_v deaf_a to_o our_o desire_n when_o we_o come_v to_o crave_v they_o at_o his_o hand_n lo_o how_o we_o shall_v be_v hear_v at_o god_n hand_n and_o job_n set_v down_o
as_o he_o have_v say_v heretofore_o and_o that_o we_o can_v comprehend_v they_o for_o he_o will_v compare_v gold_n &_o silver_n with_o wisdom_n for_o although_o that_o gold_n and_o silver_n likewise_o be_v a_o metal_n full_a of_o dross_n and_o can_v hardly_o be_v discern_v of_o what_o value_v it_o be_v before_o it_o be_v fyne_v and_o although_o it_o be_v hard_a also_o to_o find_v the_o vein_n of_o it_o because_o they_o be_v hide_v in_o the_o earth_n yet_o be_v the_o mine_n both_o of_o gold_n &_o silver_n find_v out_o but_o as_o for_o wisdom_n she_o dwell_v further_o off_o from_o man_n they_o can_v find_v she_o by_o dig_v deep_a downward_o nor_o climb_v so_o high_a upward_o as_o to_o come_v to_o she_o unless_o god_n give_v she_o hereby_o job_n mean_v that_o it_o be_v a_o very_a hard_a point_n of_o wisdom_n for_o we_o to_o comprehend_v god_n judgement_n and_o that_o we_o must_v not_o make_v a_o ground_a rule_n of_o they_o as_o though_o we_o have_v the_o perfect_v and_o full_a knowledge_n of_o they_o here_o in_o this_o world_n so_o then_o we_o see_v in_o effect_n that_o job_n be_v not_o contrary_a to_o himself_o ne_o condescend_v to_o the_o talk_n and_o doctrine_n of_o those_o that_o have_v hitherto_o resist_v he_o but_o rather_o declare_v that_o that_o which_o they_o have_v speak_v be_v partly_o true_a howbeit_o not_o altogether_o because_o god_n judgement_n be_v not_o execute_v ordinary_o in_o this_o present_a life_n although_o we_o have_v now_o and_o then_o some_o sign_n of_o they_o and_o that_o be_v all_o now_o we_o see_v what_o job_n intent_n be_v and_o it_o remain_v that_o we_o make_v our_o profit_n of_o this_o doctrine_n we_o have_v two_o thing_n to_o mark_v in_o this_o sentence_n the_o one_o be_v that_o the_o content_n hereof_o be_v a_o declaration_n of_o the_o punishment_n that_o god_n execute_v upon_o the_o wicked_a that_o be_v to_o wit_n when_o he_o list_v to_o punish_v they_o in_o this_o transitory_a life_n and_o for_o the_o other_o we_o have_v to_o mark_v that_o when_o god_n think_v it_o good_a he_o defer_v those_o punishment_n and_o reserve_v they_o in_o such_o wise_a as_o they_o be_v not_o see_v at_o all_o in_o this_o present_a life_n and_o yet_o that_o we_o must_v not_o be_v out_o of_o quiet_a for_o it_o as_o though_o god_n be_v asleep_a &_o execute_v not_o his_o office_n for_o he_o know_v wherefore_o he_o delay_v the_o reason_n be_v unknown_a to_o we_o but_o yet_o it_o please_v he_o to_o do_v so_o and_o his_o will_n be_v the_o rule_n of_o all_o equity_n and_o right_a thus_o you_o see_v the_o two_o point_n whereunto_o it_o behove_v we_o to_o bring_v back_o all_o that_o be_v contain_v here_o now_o as_o touch_v the_o first_o point_n let_v we_o mark_v as_o i_o have_v say_v the_o already_o that_o it_o be_v not_o without_o cause_n that_o god_n have_v threaten_v too_o punish_v the_o wicked_a and_o the_o transgressor_n of_o his_o law_n after_o such_o a_o fashion_n as_o they_o shall_v even_o have_v their_o portion_n and_o heritage_n with_o he_o hereby_o we_o understand_v that_o if_o man_n escape_v unpunished_a here_o below_o and_o no_o man_n take_v vengeance_n of_o their_o misdeed_n and_o of_o the_o outrage_n and_o extortion_n that_o they_o have_v commit_v god_n who_o be_v above_o will_v not_o miss_v they_o therefore_o at_o length_n they_o shall_v come_v to_o their_o account_n and_o that_o shall_v be_v as_o their_o portion_n or_o heritage_n for_o although_o they_o be_v not_o punish_v at_o the_o first_o day_n yet_o will_v god_n work_v in_o the_o end_n according_a too_o that_o which_o i_o have_v declare_v already_o i_o say_v we_o must_v not_o make_v it_o a_o general_a rule_n but_o yet_o shall_v it_o fall_v out_o so_o oftentimes_o then_o let_v we_o learn_v to_o have_v a_o eye_n unto_o god_n in_o all_o our_o life_n and_o let_v we_o not_o think_v ourselves_o discharge_v when_o we_o be_v escape_v the_o hand_n of_o man_n neither_o let_v we_o flatter_v ourselves_o thereupon_o as_o though_o we_o have_v make_v a_o fair_a hand_n but_o let_v we_o have_v a_o eye_n to_o this_o heritage_n which_o god_n tell_v we_o that_o he_o have_v prepare_v for_o such_o as_o have_v live_v amiss_o like_a as_o the_o son_n and_o heir_n of_o a_o man_n shall_v not_o possess_v his_o father_n good_n and_o land_n at_o the_o first_o day_n but_o shall_v be_v owner_n and_o master_n of_o they_o in_o time_n so_o on_o the_o contrary_a part_n god_n punish_v not_o the_o wicked_a sort_n incontinent_o when_o they_o have_v offend_v but_o yet_o be_v their_o possession_n keep_v for_o they_o in_o the_o end_n and_o shall_v be_v reserve_v certain_o for_o they_o as_o a_o heritage_n whereof_o they_o can_v be_v disfeat_v mark_v that_o for_o one_o point_n and_o now_o it_o be_v say_v that_o if_o their_o child_n be_v multiply_v they_o shall_v go_v to_o the_o sword_n and_o their_o of_o spring_n shall_v be_v overthrow_v so_o as_o it_o shall_v be_v bury_v in_o destruction_n without_o any_o remedy_n by_o these_o say_n we_o understand_v that_o god_n not_o only_o punish_v the_o wicked_a and_o the_o despiser_n of_o his_o majesty_n in_o their_o own_o person_n but_o also_o extend_v the_o same_o vengeance_n even_o unto_o their_o child_n true_o we_o will_v think_v this_o strange_a to_o our_o own_o understanding_n but_o it_o have_v be_v declare_v already_o heretofore_o that_o god_n may_v punish_v the_o child_n of_o the_o wicked_a without_o do_v they_o wrong_n and_o why_o for_o we_o be_v all_o curse_a in_o adam_n and_o bring_v nothing_o but_o damnation_n with_o we_o out_o of_o our_o mother_n womb_n now_o than_o if_o god_n leave_v we_o in_o our_o own_o state_n all_o of_o we_o both_o great_a and_o small_a be_v already_o appoint_v to_o destruction_n if_o god_n shall_v rend_v up_o the_o whole_a world_n and_o plunge_v it_o into_o the_o bottomless_a pit_n may_v he_o be_v accuse_v of_o cruelty_n no_o for_o his_o gentle_a handle_n of_o we_o come_v of_o his_o own_o mere_a goodness_n and_o not_o of_o any_o desert_n of_o we_o then_o if_o he_o withdraw_v his_o grace_n from_o the_o offspring_n of_o the_o wicked_a and_o to_o punish_v the_o father_n do_v wrap_v their_o child_n in_o the_o like_a destruction_n so_o that_o for_o somuch_o as_o the_o father_n have_v run_v further_o and_o further_o into_o wickedness_n his_o child_n must_v be_v fain_o to_o fill_v up_o the_o iniquity_n of_o their_o auneester_fw-mi and_o to_o have_v his_o punishment_n cast_v into_o their_o bosom_n as_o the_o scripture_n say_v let_v we_o not_o think_v it_o strange_a for_o god_n know_v wherefore_o he_o do_v it_o true_o if_o we_o shall_v stand_v reason_v after_o our_o own_o imagination_n we_o will_v think_v there_o be_v some_o reason_n that_o he_o shall_v not_o do_v so_o but_o it_o be_v a_o devilish_a malapertness_n too_o measure_n god_n work_n by_o our_o own_o reason_n and_o understanding_n and_o herewithal_o let_v we_o bear_v in_o mind_n also_o what_o have_v be_v declare_v that_o be_v to_o wit_n that_o all_o mankind_n be_v fordo_v and_o damn_v in_o itself_o and_o that_o god_n may_v deal_v rigorous_o with_o they_o without_o blame_n for_o our_o salvation_n come_v not_o of_o ourselves_o and_o when_o god_n assure_v we_o of_o it_o he_o do_v it_o not_o for_o our_o desert_n or_o worthiness_n but_o of_o his_o own_o mere_a mercy_n as_o i_o have_v show_v afore_o and_o so_o we_o see_v that_o god_n ought_v to_o be_v glorify_v in_o the_o rigour_n that_o he_o execute_v upon_o the_o wicked_a when_o he_o punish_v they_o in_o the_o person_n of_o their_o child_n and_o it_o serve_v to_o cast_v the_o great_a terror_n upon_o all_o the_o despiser_n of_o god_n when_o they_o be_v threaten_v that_o they_o shall_v be_v punish_v even_o in_o their_o offspring_n like_v as_o on_o the_o contrary_a part_n when_o our_o lord_n say_v that_o he_o will_v be_v gracious_a and_o pitiful_a to_o show_v mercy_n in_o a_o thousand_o generation_n too_o such_o as_o love_v he_o and_o obey_v he_o he_o mean_v thereby_o to_o assure_v we_o the_o better_a of_o the_o infinite_a love_n which_o he_o bear_v we_o for_o when_o we_o know_v that_o god_n think_v it_o not_o enough_o to_o love_v we_o and_o too_o take_v we_o for_o his_o child_n but_o vouchsafe_v also_o too_o call_v our_o child_n for_o our_o sake_n and_o favour_n be_v it_o not_o a_o substantial_a proof_n of_o his_o singular_a goodness_n have_v we_o not_o so_o much_o the_o more_o cause_n to_o rejoice_v in_o our_o god_n see_v that_o he_o not_o only_o receive_v we_o to_o himself_o but_o also_o make_v our_o child_n partaker_n of_o the_o same_o grace_n furthermore_o for_o as_o much_o as_o man_n be_v dull_a upon_o the_o spur_n and_o bow_v not_o easy_o when_o god_n threaten_v they_o it_o
cause_v he_o to_o say_v that_o when_o he_o have_v punish_v they_o in_o their_o own_o person_n the_o same_o rigour_n must_v be_v fain_o too_o extend_v even_o unto_o their_o posterity_n yea_o and_o that_o even_o after_o their_o decease_n he_o will_v not_o cease_v to_o show_v how_o sore_o he_o hate_v and_o abhor_v they_o by_o punish_v their_o offspring_n sith_o it_o be_v say_v so_o needs_o ought_v the_o wicked_a to_o be_v terrible_o afraid_a yea_o though_o they_o be_v hard_a than_o stone_n how_o now_o may_v they_o say_v how_o great_a will_v god_n vengeance_n be_v upon_o we_o see_v that_o even_o our_o child_n shall_v be_v wrap_v in_o it_o and_o that_o the_o fragment_n thereof_o shall_v fly_v to_o our_o posterity_n even_o after_o our_o death_n if_o our_o issue_n must_v perish_v through_o our_o fault_n how_o great_a and_o terrible_a shall_v our_o own_o destruction_n be_v thus_o than_o you_o see_v why_o our_o lord_n do_v express_o threaten_v the_o wicked_a to_o punish_v they_o even_o in_o their_o child_n it_o be_v to_o the_o end_n that_o we_o shall_v be_v touch_v near_o the_o quick_a with_o fear_n see_v that_o man_n be_v so_o dull_a and_o hard-hearted_a of_o their_o own_o

so_o than_o if_o we_o look_v wise_o upon_o god_n judgement_n we_o may_v well_o see_v by_o experience_n that_o it_o be_v not_o for_o nought_o that_o the_o scripture_n say_v that_o god_n will_v punish_v the_o wicked_a in_o their_o offspring_n look_v upon_o a_o man_n that_o shall_v have_v endure_v great_a unquietness_n and_o pain_n all_o his_o life_n long_o too_o gather_v good_n in_o deed_n he_o

or_o too_o what_o cause_n may_v such_o change_v be_v impute_v let_v we_o conclude_v that_o god_n put_v too_o his_o hand_n wherefore_o let_v we_o not_o be_v blind_v when_o our_o lord_n work_v after_o

as_o the_o wickedness_n increase_v and_o augment_v so_o also_o must_v god_n vengeance_n grow_v hot_a and_o ripe_a then_o let_v we_o mark_v well_o that_o when_o we_o see_v such_o change_n and_o that_o

his_o own_o person_n or_o in_o his_o offspring_n let_v we_o look_v well_o upon_o such_o example_n that_o we_o may_v profit_v ourselves_o by_o they_o and_o if_o he_o wink_v at_o other_o and_o punish_v they_o not_o at_o the_o first_o let_v we_o tarry_v patient_o till_o the_o day_n of_o the_o lord_n appear_v for_o so_o long_o as_o we_o be_v in_o this_o world_n we_o be_v as_o it_o be_v in_o the_o

hate_v we_o and_o persecute_v we_o as_o a_o mortal_a enemy_n yet_o let_v we_o not_o therefore_o cease_v to_o humble_v
namely_o that_o the_o wicked_a shall_v heap_v up_o gold_n and_o silver_n and_o movable_n and_o yet_o in_o the_o end_n good_a man_n shall_v come_v to_o be_v clothe_v with_o they_o true_a it_o be_v that_o because_o god_n child_n walk_v simple_o and_o plain_o they_o may_v want_v many_o thing_n and_o it_o may_v seem_v that_o poverty_n threaten_v to_o attach_v they_o within_o a_o day_n or_o twain_o but_o yet_o god_n provide_v in_o such_o wise_a for_o they_o as_o they_o always_o keep_v on_o their_o way_n still_o we_o see_v then_o that_o the_o godly_a shall_v sometime_o be_v clothe_v with_o the_o

that_o thing_n be_v guide_v by_o fortune_n behold_v how_o faith_n be_v utter_o deface_v when_o we_o go_v about_o to_o measure_n god_n judgement_n by_o the_o thing_n that_o we_o can_v present_o see_v

say_a text_n too_o that_o which_o be_v contain_v here_o it_o follow_v that_o the_o fear_n of_o god_n be_v the_o treasure_n of_o ezechias_n and_o of_o all_o his_o people_n isaiah_n therefore_o do_v

when_o they_o shall_v have_v profit_v so_o far_o as_o to_o walk_v in_o obedience_n to_o god_n and_o in_o holiness_n of_o life_n and_o furthermore_o let_v we_o come_v back_o to_o that_o which_o have_v

take_v hold_n of_o it_o to_o the_o end_n to_o come_v to_o he_o with_o a_o free_a heart_n and_o too_o seek_v he_o for_o so_o long_o as_o we_o shun_v god_n we_o be_v fierce_a against_o he_o and_o

know_v what_o his_o goodness_n and_o mercy_n be_v and_o yield_v he_o such_o reverence_n as_o we_o may_v be_v true_o join_v unto_o he_o and_o undoubted_o when_o he_o speak_v of_o the_o honour_n that_o

unto_o it_o for_o that_o also_o be_v the_o point_n whereat_o we_o must_v begin_v too_o walk_v in_o the_o fear_n of_o our_o god_n and_o this_o be_v the_o cause_n why_o saint_n paul_n when_o he_o

than_o we_o see_v that_o to_o fear_n god_n it_o behove_v we_o to_o be_v sure_a of_o his_o goodness_n but_o here_o job_n have_v set_v down_o one_o particular_a for_o the_o whole_a purposely_o to_o

therein_o it_o be_v the_o thing_n wherein_o our_o whole_a wisdom_n consist_v this_o than_o ought_v to_o inflame_v we_o great_o to_o seek_v the_o thing_n that_o be_v contain_v in_o the_o holy_a

be_v to_o be_v desire_v of_o it_o own_o nature_n yea_o and_o that_o we_o will_v fain_o be_v bereave_v of_o it_o wherefore_o let_v we_o learn_v to_o be_v inflame_v with_o such_o zeal_n to_o profit_n

according_o we_o shall_v see_v many_o fantastical_a person_n in_o these_o day_n which_o despise_v god_n word_n because_o as_o it_o seem_v to_o they_o there_o be_v nothing_o but_o simple_a stuff_n

as_o they_o be_v worthy_a for_o if_o a_o man_n try_v what_o be_v in_o they_o he_o shall_v find_v they_o double_a blind_a and_o that_o our_o lord_n bereave_v they_o of_o common_a reason_n so_o as_o they_o become_v the_o very_a fool_n dolt_n &_o idiote_n in_o the_o world_n see_v i_o pray_v you_o what_o be_v the_o wage_n of_o their_o pride_n that_o make_v no_o account_n of_o god_n word_n true_a it_o be_v that_o at_o the_o first_o blush_n we_o shall_v see_v great_a simplicity_n there_o for_o our_o lord_n use_v no_o high_a stile_n but_o rather_o temper_v himself_o both_o to_o great_a and_o

wherefore_o let_v we_o mark_v that_o job_n repine_v not_o here_o as_o one_o that_o be_v grieve_v for_o the_o loss_n of_o all_o the_o good_n that_o god_n have_v give_v he_o but_o rather_o that_o he_o reprove_v his_o adversary_n show_v they_o that_o they_o take_v a_o wrong_a way_n to_o judge_v of_o he_o because_o they_o think_v a_o man_n to_o be_v utter_o damn_v by_o reason_n of_o the_o change_n which_o they_o see_v in_o his_o state_n and_o remember_v not_o at_o all_o that_o in_o time_n past_a he_o have_v be_v have_v in_o great_a reverence_n as_o a_o excellent_a and_o choose_v man_n among_o all_o other_o therefore_o by_o the_o read_n of_o this_o text_n let_v we_o learn_v to_o take_v example_n not_o to_o be_v out_o of_o patience_n though_o god_n afflict_v we_o for_o we_o ought_v rather_o to_o remember_v how_o we_o have_v hear_v job_n say_v that_o sith_o we_o have_v receive_v good_a at_o god_n hand_n why_o shall_v we_o not_o be_v patient_a too_o endure_v the_o adversity_n also_o which_o he_o send_v for_o we_o be_v unthankful_a to_o god_n if_o the_o remember_v of_o his_o benefit_n assuage_v not_o all_o our_o grief_n when_o it_o please_v he_o to_o exercise_v we_o and_o to_o bring_v we_o low_o for_o than_o it_o behoove_v we_o to_o think_v how_o now_o have_v not_o our_o lord_n deal_v in_o such_o wise_a with_o we_o heretofore_o as_o it_o be_v good_a reason_n that_o we_o shall_v receive_v whatsoever_o it_o please_v he_o yea_o and_o it_o ought_v to_o confirm_v we_o in_o god_n goodness_n so_o as_o we_o shall_v not_o doubt_v but_o that_o he_o love_v we_o see_v we_o have_v find_v he_o so_o good_a unto_o we_o by_o experience_n and_o have_v we_o not_o cause_n to_o be_v content_v when_o god_n show_v his_o love_n towards_o we_o although_o thing_n fall_v not_o out_o as_o we_o will_v wish_v thus_o than_o you_o see_v how_o and_o in_o what_o sort_n it_o behove_v we_o to_o remember_v our_o former_a prosperity_n when_o god_n afflict_v we_o it_o must_v not_o increase_v our_o heaviness_n nor_o prick_v we_o forward_o to_o any_o grudge_n but_o it_o must_v rather_o bridle_v we_o if_o we_o storm_v to_o much_o and_o if_o our_o passion_n be_v overheady_o the_o say_a

for_o we_o again_o see_v he_o have_v have_v such_o care_n of_o we_o it_o be_v good_a reason_n that_o we_o shall_v yield_v ourselves_o whole_o unto_o he_o to_o suffer_v whatsoever_o it_o shall_v

god_n have_v not_o press_v we_o so_o always_o but_o have_v have_v regard_n of_o our_o feebleness_n &_o bear_v with_o it_o and_o thereby_o witness_v his_o love_n towards_o we_o to_o the_o end_n that_o

again_o to_o our_o former_a state_n behold_v i_o say_v how_o it_o behove_v we_o to_o practice_v this_o doctrine_n in_o all_o our_o affliction_n but_o now_o let_v we_o return_v to_o the_o principal_a point_n of_o job_n intent_n i_o have_v tell_v you_o heretofore_o that_o here_o job_n mean_v to_o show_v that_o his_o adversary_n be_v as_o it_o be_v blind_a and_o judge_v foolish_o because_o they_o stay_v upon_o the_o thing_n which_o be_v see_v with_o the_o eye_n for_o because_o job_n be_v in_o so_o great_a extremity_n they_o imagine_v that_o god_n have_v forsake_v he_o &_o that_o he_o be_v to_o be_v esteem_v for_o a_o curse_a man_n but_o as_o we_o have_v see_v heretofore_o we_o must_v not_o go_v so_o to_o work_v but_o we_o must_v have_v the_o wisdom_n that_o be_v speak_v of_o in_o the_o psalm_n namely_o of_o bridle_a ourself_o that_o we_o have_v compassion_n of_o such_o as_o be_v in_o adversity_n and_o furthermore_o we_o must_v begin_v at_o this_o point_n that_o if_o we_o see_v a_o man_n smite_v by_o god_n hand_n we_o must_v consider_v what_o his_o life_n have_v be_v if_o he_o have_v be_v a_o wicked_a and_o disorder_a person_n then_o our_o lord_n show_v we_o the_o thing_n which_o he_o tell_v we_o so_o often_o namely_o that_o his_o threaten_n be_v not_o in_o vain_a and_o that_o it_o behoove_v we_o to_o learn_v at_o a_o other_o man_n cost_n as_o they_o say_v to_o walk_v in_o fear_n it_o will_v seem_v now_o and_o then_o that_o god_n look_v not_o downehere_o and_o that_o he_o suffer_v thing_n to_o go_v to_o havoc_n but_o when_o he_o execute_v his_o judgement_n the_o same_o aught_o too_o teach_v we_o righteousness_n as_o it_o be_v say_v in_o the_o prophet_n isaiah_n and_o we_o must_v consider_v that_o it_o be_v no_o play_v with_o god_n for_o although_o he_o wink_v at_o thing_n for_o a_o time_n he_o will_v in_o the_o end_n call_v those_o to_o account_v which_o think_v themselves_o to_o be_v escape_v and_o of_o who_o the_o world_n suppose_v that_o they_o shall_v abide_v unpunished_a you_o see_v then_o that_o we_o must_v not_o settle_v our_o judgement_n simple_o upon_o affliction_n but_o consider_v what_o the_o life_n of_o they_o have_v be_v who_o god_n punish_v to_o the_o end_n we_o may_v acknowledge_v their_o chastisement_n according_a to_o their_o desert_n for_o the_o better_a profit_v of_o ourselves_o thereby_o for_o if_o we_o see_v a_o good_a man_n punish_v in_o such_o wise_n as_o god_n may_v seem_v too_o have_v forget_v he_o yea_o and_o even_o to_o persecute_v he_o what_o ought_v we_o to_o say_v to_o that_o it_o behoove_v we_o to_o suspend_v our_o judgement_n for_o it_o be_v a_o over_o great_a rashness_n for_o we_o to_o judge_v of_o thing_n secret_a and_o unknown_a therefore_o let_v we_o know_v that_o our_o lord_n intend_v to_o humble_v we_o and_o that_o we_o must_v confess_v he_o to_o be_v righteous_a although_o the_o reason_n of_o his_o do_n be_v not_o altogether_o apparent_a and_o so_o ought_v job_n friend_n to_o have_v judge_v which_o condemn_v he_o wrongful_o for_o inasmuch_o as_o they_o have_v see_v he_o to_o be_v as_o a_o mirror_n of_o holiness_n and_o all_o perfection_n during_o all_o his_o whole_a life_n when_o they_o see_v he_o so_o smite_v down_o as_o it_o seem_v that_o god_n mean_v to_o overwhelm_v he_o utter_o they_o ought_v to_o have_v come_v to_o this_o point_n to_o have_v say_v we_o know_v not_o what_o to_o say_v our_o wit_n be_v dazzle_v in_o this_o behalf_n this_o man_n have_v live_v holy_o doubtless_o he_o be_v never_o any_o wicked_a man_n any_o whoremonger_n any_o drunkard_n any_o perjure_a person_n any_o loose_a liver_n any_o cruel_a person_n nor_o any_o proud_a man_n there_o be_v none_o of_o all_o these_o thing_n in_o he_o why_o then_o do_v god_n handle_v he_o so_o rigorous_o we_o can_v tell_v and_o therefore_o god_n mind_v to_o humble_v we_o here_o to_o the_o end_n that_o we_o shall_v know_v that_o sometime_o his_o judgement_n be_v as_o a_o bottomless_a pit_n and_o that_o it_o be_v not_o for_o we_o to_o wade_v into_o they_o but_o rather_o we_o ought_v to_o glorify_v he_o yea_o even_o by_o shet_v our_o eye_n until_o he_o show_v we_o why_o he_o work_v so_o you_o see_v then_o what_o the_o wisdom_n be_v whereof_o the_o psalm_n make_v mention_v when_o it_o say_v that_o the_o man_n be_v happy_a which_o judge_v right_o of_o he_o which_o be_v in_o adversity_n but_o heerewithall_o it_o behove_v we_o also_o to_o apply_v this_o to_o our_o instruction_n for_o as_o our_o lord_n say_v if_o god_n do_v make_v the_o green_a wood_n to_o be_v burn_v after_o that_o sort_n what_o shall_v become_v of_o the_o dry_a then_o let_v we_o compare_v ourselves_o with_o such_o as_o we_o have_v know_v to_o be_v good_a man_n and_o to_o have_v god_n and_o we_o shall_v find_v so_o

with_o ambition_n will_v fain_o show_v themselves_o to_o be_v man_n of_o renown_n and_o they_o never_o do_v any_o thing_n but_o they_o look_v for_o some_o praise_n and_o commendation_n for_o it_o

you_o see_v what_o job_n look_v at_o in_o say_v that_o those_o which_o be_v such_o abject_n have_v lift_v up_o themselves_o against_o he_o and_o let_v we_o mark_v well_o how_o job_n have_v declare_v

assault_v rather_o of_o brute_n beast_n than_o of_o man_n therefore_o when_o our_o lord_n afflict_v we_o by_o any_o such_o mean_n it_o be_v to_o meeken_fw-ge we_o we_o see_v it_o be_v a_o general_a

exempt_v himself_o from_o they_o and_o although_o all_o man_n be_v not_o cumber_v with_o filth_n and_o stink_n yet_o notwithstanding_o our_o lord_n make_v we_o subject_a to_o those_o worm_n as_o it_o be_v to_o annoy_v we_o even_o though_o we_o be_v king_n and_o prince_n so_o as_o every_o one_o of_o we_o must_v abide_v it_o and_o wherefore_o be_v it_o so_o but_o only_o to_o humble_v we_o the_o more_o so_o then_o let_v we_o mark_v it_o to_o be_v god_n will_n that_o when_o he_o put_v we_o to_o such_o extremity_n that_o person_n of_o base_a state_n vaunt_v themselves_o against_o we_o it_o be_v always_o to_o the_o end_n to_o take_v away_o all_o vainglory_n and_o presumption_n from_o we_o wherefore_o in_o that_o behalf_n let_v we_o be_v as_o man_n that_o have_v put_v themselves_o into_o the_o

of_o the_o reproach_n whereunto_o thou_o have_v put_v i_o butherewithall_o it_o behove_v we_o also_o to_o be_v ready_a to_o behave_v ourselves_o well_o in_o the_o thing_n which_o we_o see_v ordinary_o which_o be_v that_o those_o which_o crouch_v and_o creep_v and_o play_v the_o liamhound_n to_o a_o man_n when_o he_o be_v in_o authority_n and_o credit_n be_v ready_a to_o leap_v in_o his_o neck_n as_o soon_o as_o his_o state_n be_v change_v that_o they_o see_v he_o overthrow_v and_o they_o do_v it_o with_o such_o excess_n as_o they_o seem_v to_o take_v pleasure_n in_o it_o and_o hereby_o you_o

every_o of_o we_o try_v himself_o to_o the_o end_n he_o may_v behave_v himself_o wise_o in_o that_o case_n for_o sometime_o we_o honour_n those_o who_o god_n abhor_v and_o we_o perceive_v not_o that_o in_o so_o do_v there_o be_v a_o piece_n of_o hypocrisy_n in_o we_o in_o so_o much_o as_o if_o god_n overthrow_v they_o oftentimes_o we_o will_v be_v the_o first_o that_o shall_v run_v upon_o they_o we_o see_v such_o example_n in_o story_n of_o soldier_n that_o have_v rise_v against_o their_o own_o prince_n look_v upon_o the_o great_a captain_n which_o have_v bear_v such_o sway_n as_o they_o make_v all_o to_o quake_v and_o you_o shall_v see_v that_o when_o a_o great_a prince_n have_v be_v overthrow_v even_o they_o that_o have_v hazard_v their_o life_n in_o his_o defence_n shall_v either_o to_o gratify_v his_o successor_n or_o his_o enemy_n fall_v to_o practise_v of_o treason_n and_o to_o commit_v of_o such_o cruelty_n as_o his_o enemy_n will_v not_o have_v do_v for_o where_o the_o enemy_n will_v have_v show_v pity_n they_o which_o erst_o have_v hazard_v their_o life_n for_o his_o safety_n do_v pass_v into_o all_o outrage_n so_o much_o the_o more_o cruel_o and_o furious_o when_o we_o see_v such_o example_n let_v we_o call_v our_o wit_n about_o we_o and_o beware_v that_o we_o be_v not_o infect_v with_o any_o such_o vice_n moreover_o a_o man_n may_v say_v here_o that_o job_n seem_v to_o be_v contrary_a to_o himself_o when_o he_o say_v that_o he_o will_v not_o have_v vouchsafe_v to_o have_v set_v their_o father_n to_o be_v keeper_n of_o the_o dog_n of_o his_o flock_n for_o in_o the_o last_o chapter_n he_o have_v show_v himself_o to_o be_v of_o so_o great_a courtesy_n as_o he_o be_v not_o only_o the_o father_n of_o the_o fatherless_a and_o the_o defender_n of_o the_o

towards_o they_o in_o succour_v they_o now_o therefore_o to_o say_v that_o he_o vouchsafe_v not_o to_o match_v their_o father_n with_o his_o dog_n it_o seem_v clean_o contrary_a but_o let_v we_o mark_v that_o job_n speak_v not_o here_o of_o his_o own_o disposition_n towards_o they_o but_o of_o the_o thing_n as_o it_o be_v in_o itself_o as_o if_o he_o shall_v say_v that_o the_o world_n count_v not_o the_o father_n of_o they_o worthy_a to_o keep_v dog_n thus_o you_o see_v in_o effect_n what_o job_n mean_v to_o signify_v but_o yet_o we_o must_v bear_v in_o mind_n that_o although_o man_n have_v not_o any_o thing_n in_o they_o worthy_a of_o estimation_n we_o must_v not_o therefore_o disdain_n they_o but_o know_v they_o to_o be_v god_n creature_n and_o such_o as_o resemble_v ourselves_o therefore_o let_v we_o honour_v they_o for_o whosoever_o be_v high_a in_o degree_n may_v perchance_o allege_v this_o and_o that_o to_o sort_n out_o himself_o from_o the_o rest_n of_o man_n but_o yet_o notwithstanding_o though_o he_o be_v a_o king_n he_o must_v have_v brotherhood_n with_o the_o poor_a shepherd_n and_o neat-herd_n in_o the_o world_n except_o he_o can_v put_v off_o his_o own_o

shall_v the_o end_n of_o our_o affliction_n be_v always_o happy_a if_o we_o continue_v in_o call_v upon_o he_o so_o then_o howsoever_o the_o world_n go_v with_o we_o let_v we_o not_o surmise_v that_o

that_o can_v light_v upon_o none_o but_o the_o unbeliever_n for_o if_o we_o cry_v namely_o in_o faith_n and_o hope_n it_o be_v certain_a that_o the_o promise_n which_o be_v speak_v of_o shall_v be_v

not_o be_v hear_v do_v light_a upon_o job_n let_v we_o conclude_v that_o if_o god_n make_v not_o countenance_n to_o hear_v we_o it_o be_v not_o for_o that_o he_o reject_v our_o prayer_n or_o pass_v not_o for_o they_o but_o he_o hold_v aloof_o to_o make_v we_o continue_v in_o prayer_n for_o it_o be_v not_o enough_o to_o have_v pray_v once_o and_o to_o have_v say_v alas_o lord_n will_v thou_o

furthermore_o let_v we_o mark_v well_o that_o although_o god_n pretend_v not_o to_o hear_v our_o prayer_n yet_o notwithstanding_o he_o show_v that_o he_o hear_v they_o and_o that_o it_o be_v so_o behold_v job_n who_o complain_v that_o he_o cry_v and_o be_v not_o hear_v have_v be_v utter_o overwhelm_v if_o our_o lord_n have_v not_o hear_v his_o request_n how_o it_o that_o he_o perceive_v it_o

into_o evil_n so_o much_o the_o more_o than_o behove_v it_o we_o too_o stand_v always_o upon_o our_o guard_n and_o to_o mistrust_v ourselves_o see_v we_o be_v so_o waver_v that_o we_o can_v follow_v

can_v clear_v themselves_o before_o god_n but_o that_o there_o have_v be_v some_o faultiness_n in_o they_o wherefore_o let_v we_o learn_v to_o stand_v upon_o our_o guard_n and_o not_o to_o flatter_v

the_o first_o be_v that_o god_n will_v not_o judge_v man_n life_n at_o adventure_n but_o only_o by_o his_o law_n and_o the_o second_o be_v that_o there_o be_v no_o competent_a judge_n but_o he_o

to_o mark_v well_o this_o point_n that_o god_n will_v judge_v our_o work_n by_o the_o trial_n of_o his_o law_n and_o that_o serve_v first_o to_o beat_v down_o all_o the_o vain_a trust_n of_o

they_o according_a as_o we_o see_v how_o that_o when_o the_o papist_n have_v take_v much_o pain_n in_o their_o devotion_n they_o think_v that_o god_n be_v in_o their_o debt_n for_o it_o or_o else_o that_o he_o will_v never_o quit_v they_o unless_o they_o bring_v such_o thing_n with_o they_o no_o no_o let_v they_o go_v ask_v their_o wage_n of_o he_o that_o do_v set_v they_o a_o work_n for_o god_n disallow_v it_o every_o whit_n he_o affirm_v that_o he_o will_v judge_v man_n work_n by_o put_v they_o into_o the_o balance_n that_o be_v to_o say_v by_o examine_v they_o after_o his_o law_n he_o will_v not_o devise_v a_o new_a judgement_n but_o he_o have_v give_v we_o his_o law_n and_o that_o god_n be_v both_o the_o lawgiver_n and_o also_o the_o judge_n be_v thing_n that_o go_v joint_o together_o how_o do_v we_o think_v that_o god_n ought_v too_o judge_v according_a to_o that_o whereby_o man_n have_v be_v teach_v aforehand_o that_o be_v to_o wit_n by_o his_o law_n then_o be_v there_o a_o agreableness_n between_o the_o law_n which_o he_o have_v give_v we_o to_o keep_v &_o the_o judgement_n that_o he_o must_v execute_v thus_o they_o as_o concern_v the_o first_o point_n you_o see_v the_o hypocrite_n shall_v be_v confound_v in_o their_o vain_a presumption_n in_o that_o they_o think_v their_o work_v shall_v be_v allow_v &_o yet_o yield_v no_o reverence_n to_o god_n law_n

according_a as_o we_o see_v how_o the_o papist_n have_v no_o like_n of_o any_o thing_n that_o we_o do_v and_o why_o because_o there_o be_v not_o so_o many_o gay_a pomp_n and_o goodly_a deck_n among_o we_o as_o there_o be_v in_o their_o synagogue_n for_o if_o a_o man_n come_v into_o the_o church_n of_o the_o papist_n he_o shall_v find_v they_o as_o full_a of_o gewgaw_n as_o they_o can_v be_v

too_o pray_v unto_o god_n without_o the_o gay_a ceremony_n that_o glister_v among_o they_o but_o what_o for_o that_o it_o be_v enough_o for_o we_o that_o god_n allow_v we_o and_o how_o let_v we_o look_v upon_o his_o law_n and_o upon_o the_o thing_n that_o he_o require_v of_o we_o in_o the_o scripture_n for_o the_o thing_n which_o must_v stir_v up_o the_o faithful_a &_o give_v they_o courage_n to_o serve_v god_n according_a to_o his_o will_n be_v that_o they_o know_v how_o we_o must_v not_o follow_v any_o other_o thing_n than_o that_o which_o be_v agreeable_a in_o all_o respect_n to_o the_o doctrine_n which_o we_o have_v receive_v as_o now_o in_o the_o gospel_n the_o word_n that_o i_o have_v speak_v say_v he_o to_o the_o jew_n shall_v judge_v you_o and_o not_o i_o furthermore_o let_v we_o always_o consider_v that_o it_o behoove_v we_o to_o come_v to_o account_v before_o the_o great_a judge_n and_o that_o it_o will_v not_o boot_n we_o to_o have_v be_v flatter_v and_o praise_v of_o man_n for_o it_o be_v say_v that_o god_n will_v try_v by_o these_o
to_o be_v of_o a_o slavish_a nature_n which_o be_v count_v a_o villainous_a and_o detestable_a thing_n and_o this_o aught_o to_o induce_v we_o the_o more_o to_o the_o mildness_n which_o the_o holy_a ghost_n command_v we_o in_o this_o strain_n but_o the_o chief_a thing_n be_v the_o well_o bear_v away_o of_o the_o two_o reason_n that_o we_o have_v touch_v heretofore_o that_o be_v to_o wit_n that_o we_o have_v one_o maker_n of_o who_o all_o of_o we_o do_v come_v and_o that_o we_o be_v all_o of_o one_o like_o nature_n thus_o you_o see_v what_o we_o have_v too_o consider_v to_o beat_v down_o all_o pride_n and_o cruelty_n in_o we_o when_o we_o be_v tempt_v thereunto_o then_o if_o a_o man_n have_v a_o household_n and_o god_n have_v give_v he_o menseruante_n and_o maydseruant_n and_o he_o be_v tempt_v to_o use_v unmeasurable_a rigour_n against_o they_o let_v he_o seek_v the_o remedy_n that_o be_v show_v we_o here_o as_o how_o if_o i_o handle_v my_o servant_n cruel_o so_o as_o i_o pluck_v the_o bread_n out_o of_o their_o mouth_n and_o they_o dare_v not_o eat_v one_o morsel_n for_o fear_v lest_o i_o shall_v grudge_v at_o it_o or_o if_o i_o hold_v they_o too_o hard_a to_o their_o

therewithal_o have_v not_o god_n create_v and_o fashion_v they_o have_v not_o both_o they_o and_o we_o one_o common_a master_n in_o heaven_n and_o that_o be_v the_o reason_n which_o saint_n paul_n allege_v when_o he_o exhort_v master_n to_o bear_v with_o servant_n my_o friend_n say_v he_o although_o you_o have_v superiority_n over_o they_o yet_o have_v you_o also_o a_o master_n in_o heaven_n and_o such_o as_o be_v exalt_v cease_v not_o therefore_o to_o be_v subject_n for_o god_n be_v above_o they_o therefore_o let_v they_o bear_v in_o mind_n that_o they_o must_v render_v account_n to_o he_o that_o give_v they_o their_o servant_n must_v they_o not_o needs_o be_v restrain_v when_o they_o have_v this_o consideration_n with_o they_o for_o have_v we_o it_o of_o ourselves_o by_o what_o right_a come_v we_o to_o the_o superiority_n which_o every_o of_o we_o have_v in_o his_o own_o behalf_n be_v it_o not_o a_o pawn_n that_o god_n have_v put_v into_o our_o hand_n to_o keep_v then_o ought_v we_o not_o to_o be_v well_o advise_v that_o we_o may_v use_v it_o according_a to_o his_o will_n the_o heathen_a man_n themselves_o when_o they_o intend_v to_o frame_v king_n and_o prince_n to_o conformity_n have_v skill_n enough_o to_o say_v true_a it_o be_v that_o king_n make_v themselves_o fear_v and_o redoubt_a but_o yet_o can_v they_o not_o escape_v the_o hand_n of_o the_o heavenly_a judge_n there_o be_v a_o god_n above_o they_o if_o this_o be_v verify_v of_o prince_n which_o be_v in_o high_a superiority_n what_o shall_v become_v of_o those_o which_o be_v in_o mean_a authority_n as_o of_o master_n and_o mistress_n âª_o and_o furthermore_o as_o i_o say_v let_v we_o consider_v that_o we_o have_v all_o of_o we_o but_o one_o maker_n and_o if_o we_o can_v consider_v that_o we_o be_v all_o descend_v of_o one_o god_n we_o must_v needs_o conclude_v that_o which_o be_v true_a namely_o that_o we_o can_v not_o oppress_v our_o neighbour_n but_o god_n must_v be_v offend_v therefore_o let_v no_o man_n exalt_v himself_o in_o vanity_n for_o as_o solomon_n say_v he_o that_o mock_v the_o blind_a or_o the_o poor_a despize_v his_o maker_n now_o there_o be_v a_o poor_a man_n and_o i_o despise_v he_o or_o i_o put_v he_o to_o some_o shame_n true_a it_o be_v that_o the_o wrong_n be_v first_o offer_v to_o a_o mortal_a man_n but_o yet_o do_v god_n step_n in_o betwixt_o we_o and_o take_v the_o injury_n as_o do_v to_o himself_o thus_o you_o see_v what_o job_n or_o rather_o the_o holy_a ghost_n mean_v to_o betoken_v in_o this_o strain_n when_o he_o say_v that_o he_o which_o create_v the_o master_n create_v the_o servant_n also_o so_o then_o when_o we_o be_v touch_v with_o any_o vain_a presumption_n to_o set_v more_o by_o ourselves_o than_o by_o other_o man_n and_o to_o covet_v such_o superiority_n as_o every_o man_n shall_v stoop_v before_o we_o and_o cast_v himself_o at_o our_o foot_n and_o we_o ourselves_o have_v our_o full_a scope_n let_v we_o come_v to_o this_o consideration_n say_v yea_o although_o i_o be_v a_o master_n god_n have_v make_v my_o servant_n and_o have_v fashion_v he_o as_o well_o as_o i_o when_o we_o think_v after_o that_o sort_n it_o will_v qnayle_n our_o overween_a so_o as_o our_o haughtiness_n shall_v be_v repress_v and_o herewithal_o also_o let_v we_o have_v the_o second_o regard_n that_o be_v speak_v here_o namely_o that_o we_o be_v of_o one_o self-same_a nature_n for_o it_o be_v true_a that_o god_n have_v also_o shape_v the_o brute_n beast_n tree_n and_o all_o other_o thing_n but_o he_o have_v not_o shape_v man_n after_o the_o fashion_n of_o brute_n beast_n for_o he_o have_v give_v man_n understand_v and_o print_v his_o image_n in_o they_o on_o the_o contrary_a part_n i_o can_v not_o look_v upon_o another_o but_o i_o must_v needs_o see_v myself_o as_o in_o a_o look_a glass_n then_o see_v that_o god_n have_v knit_v such_o a_o knot_n betwixt_o we_o i_o pray_v you_o do_v not_o he_o that_o go_v about_o to_o break_v it_o cut_v off_o himself_o from_o mankind_n do_v not_o he_o deserve_v to_o be_v cast_v up_o among_o dog_n see_v he_o acknowledge_v not_o the_o nature_n which_o god_n have_v put_v into_o we_o all_o yes_o but_o what_o for_o that_o there_o be_v very_o few_o that_o think_v on_o these_o thing_n for_o contrariwise_o you_o shall_v see_v that_o if_o a_o man_n be_v exalt_v but_o one_o finger_n height_n he_o bear_v himself_o in_o hand_n that_o he_o be_v no_o more_o of_o the_o state_n of_o all_o other_o man_n and_o therefore_o so_o much_o the_o more_o need_n have_v we_o to_o

we_o all_o and_o have_v set_v we_o all_o in_o one_o rank_n the_o same_o aught_o to_o correct_v the_o pride_n of_o man_n and_o too_o pull_v down_o all_o their_o high_a look_n and_o high_a stomach_n i_o pray_v you_o what_o excuse_n shall_v we_o have_v at_o this_o day_n when_o god_n show_v himself_o to_o be_v our_o father_n he_o not_o only_o say_v that_o he_o be_v the_o creator_n of_o all_o man_n as_o

whereunto_o we_o be_v call_v as_o saint_n paul_n say_v then_o see_v it_o be_v so_o let_v we_o learn_v to_o humble_v ourselves_o and_o therewithal_o to_o know_v that_o pride_n and_o cruelty_n do_v

true_a it_o be_v that_o we_o can_v stead_v all_o the_o necessity_n that_o we_o see_v and_o therefore_o a_o christian_a man_n may_v well_o mourn_v in_o his_o heart_n without_o put_v his_o hand_n to_o

because_o they_o be_v not_o able_a to_o conceive_v they_o he_o have_v say_v heretofore_o that_o god_n will_v not_o answer_v to_o all_o word_n that_o be_v to_o say_v that_o man_n which_o be_v nothing_o

and_o that_o from_o thence_o forth_o he_o continue_v his_o goodness_n always_o towards_o we_o so_o then_o let_v we_o mark_v that_o god_n of_o his_o own_o goodness_n choose_v we_o after_o a_o secret_a manner_n incomprehensible_a too_o our_o natural_a understanding_n again_o when_o it_o please_v he_o to_o manifest_v his_o goodness_n unto_o we_o which_o thing_n he_o do_v when_o his_o gospel_n be_v

in_o we_o until_o we_o see_v the_o gate_n of_o paradise_n wide_o open_a and_o that_o we_o be_v deliver_v from_o the_o grave_n lo_o what_o we_o have_v to_o mark_v upon_o this_o say_n furthermore_o when_o eliu_n say_v that_o god_n have_v find_v reconciliation_n let_v we_o mark_v that_o he_o intend_v here_o to_o express_v yet_o better_a the_o thing_n that_o he_o touch_v even_o now_o which_o be_v

of_o the_o thing_n which_o be_v touch_v brief_o here_o which_o be_v that_o it_o be_v god_n peculiar_a office_n to_o find_v reconciliation_n nevertheless_o god_n will_v be_v to_o do_v it_o by_o his_o

that_o he_o have_v seek_v we_o and_o therewithal_o let_v not_o we_o be_v behind_o hand_n upon_o such_o occasion_n according_a as_o saint_n paul_n in_o all_o edge_v the_o say_a text_n of_o isaiah_n which_o i_o have_v touch_v show_v we_o that_o we_o must_v be_v ready_a to_o come_v when_o our_o lord_n call_v we_o and_o that_o we_o must_v not_o drive_v off_o from_o day_n to_o day_n when_o

again_o and_o be_v restore_v and_o his_o flesh_n become_v as_o fresh_a as_o a_o young_a child_n wherein_o he_o show_v the_o
for_o something_o which_o we_o have_v that_o be_v worthy_a of_o praise_n no_o for_o what_o be_v it_o that_o can_v hurt_v he_o shall_v god_n be_v any_o whit_n diminish_v by_o our_o have_v of_o some_o

and_o reproach_n in_o we_o and_o that_o we_o be_v infect_v and_o as_o it_o be_v rot_v in_o our_o filthiness_n god_n say_v i_o be_v fain_o to_o bring_v we_o to_o that_o point_n not_o for_o that_o he_o

but_o to_o humble_v ourselves_o and_o to_o receive_v the_o promise_n which_o be_v give_v we_o of_o our_o salvation_n and_o forasmuch_o as_o the_o devil_n egg_v we_o to_o stray_v from_o the_o

thou_o and_o be_v thy_o master_n and_o thou_o must_v be_v his_o scholar_n and_o receive_v whatsoever_o be_v deliver_v thou_o in_o his_o name_n lo_o here_o in_o effect_n what_o we_o have_v to_o

never_o profit_v till_o we_o have_v learn_v to_o hold_v our_o peace_n and_o what_o be_v this_o hold_v of_o our_o peace_n whereof_o eliu_n speak_v it_o be_v that_o we_o shall_v not_o be_v to_o wise_a in_o our_o own_o conceit_n nor_o subtle_a to_o reply_v against_o god_n to_o say_v how_o be_v this_o or_o how_o be_v that_o for_o we_o must_v be_v content_v with_o that_o which_o god_n show_v we_o because_o obedience_n please_v he_o best_a of_o all_o thing_n and_o so_o you_o see_v that_o the_o chief_a point_n of_o faith_n be_v to_o be_v quiet_a to_o godward_o for_o when_o man_n be_v so_o

must_v needs_o punish_v such_o pride_n what_o be_v to_o be_v do_v then_o we_o be_v command_v to_o keep_v silence_n that_o be_v too_o say_v to_o beat_v down_o all_o the_o pride_n that_o be_v in_o our_o

judge_v of_o meat_n whether_o they_o be_v savoury_a or_o no_o and_o the_o ear_n try_v word_n here_o eliu_n do_v first_o of_o all_o tell_v we_o and_o advertise_v we_o that_o this_o doctrine_n be_v

for_o the_o wise_a may_v be_v more_o confirm_v here_o and_o find_v that_o they_o lose_v not_o their_o time_n in_o harken_v to_o that_o which_o be_v say_v and_o contain_v here_o and_o undoubted_o if_o we_o know_v what_o be_v in_o we_o we_o will_v be_v more_o attentive_a to_o hear_v the_o doctrine_n that_o be_v daily_o preach_v unto_o we_o and_o first_o of_o all_o be_v it_o not_o a_o thrust_v away_o of_o god_n if_o we_o take_v scorn_v to_o be_v teach_v as_o though_o he_o have_v ordain_v a_o unprofitable_a thing_n behold_v it_o be_v god_n will_n that_o the_o gospel_n shall_v be_v preach_v &_o

of_o it_o let_v we_o look_v upon_o the_o example_n of_o s._n paul_n who_o be_v a_o mirror_n of_o angelic_a holiness_n and_o yet_o notwithstanding_o he_o say_v that_o he_o indevee_v still_o to_o go_v

and_o forget_v it_o out_o of_o hand_n and_o therefore_o we_o have_v need_v too_o be_v put_v in_o mind_n of_o it_o and_o god_n be_v so_o gracious_a unto_o we_o as_o to_o set_v his_o mercy_n afore_o we_o to_o the_o end_n we_o shall_v not_o be_v utter_o as_o it_o be_v desperate_a and_o past_a hope_n of_o trust_v in_o he_o for_o the_o understanding_n of_o a_o thing_n in_o our_o brain_n be_v not_o all_o that_o we_o have_v to_o do_v but_o it_o must_v more_o over_o be_v print_v in_o our_o heart_n this_o doctrine_n be_v not_o speculative_a or_o a_o gaze_n as_o man_n may_v term_v it_o as_o humane_a science_n be_v for_o in_o they_o it_o be_v enough_o to_o have_v conceive_v what_o they_o be_v but_o this_o must_v be_v root_v in_o our_o heart_n now_o let_v we_o consider_v whether_o we_o have_v

man_n of_o understanding_n be_v counsel_v here_o to_o harken_v and_o give_v ear_n and_o thereby_o as_o i_o say_v all_o loftiness_n must_v be_v lay_v down_o and_o we_o must_v intend_v to_o be_v teach_v of_o god_n and_o so_o much_o the_o more_o must_v we_o follow_v the_o rule_n that_o be_v give_v we_o here_o because_o we_o see_v that_o the_o world_n find_v no_o taste_n
walk_v after_o the_o world_n we_o become_v worse_o and_o worse_o and_o every_o man_n draw_v his_o neighbour_n unto_o evil_n and_o he_o himself_o follow_v they_o as_o fast_v too_o be_v it_o not_o a_o

walk_v with_o god_n and_o why_o because_o he_o be_v not_o pervert_v and_o although_o the_o whole_a world_n be_v at_o that_o time_n as_o corrupt_v as_o may_v be_v yet_o notwithstanding_o enock_n continue_v uncorrupted_a and_o whereof_o come_v that_o because_o he_o gather_v his_o wit_n to_o he_o and_o give_v not_o himself_o the_o bridle_n to_o deal_v disorderly_a but_o although_o iniquity_n be_v as_o a_o water_n flood_n upon_o the_o earth_n yet_o he_o know_v that_o it_o behove_v he_o to_o walk_v as_o in_o the_o presence_n of_o god_n furthermore_o this_o import_v also_o that_o we_o must_v not_o regard_v too_o have_v some_o fair_a show_n as_o many_o do_v which_o think_v it_o enough_o to_o be_v praise_v of_o man_n &_o to_o abstain_v from_o evil_a to_o the_o worldward_n and_o that_o if_o they_o have_v clear_a hand_n to_o outward_a sight_n it_o be_v enough_o for_o they_o but_o it_o be_v nothing_o worth_a except_o we_o have_v our_o heart_n pure_a before_o god_n and_o therefore_o let_v we_o mark_v well_o that_o when_o the_o holy_a scripture_n speak_v of_o walk_v before_o god_n it_o mean_v that_o it_o be_v too_o no_o purpose_n too_o have_v frame_v our_o outward_a life_n in_o such_o

three_o our_o walk_n before_o god_n must_v be_v to_o frame_v ourselves_o whole_o too_o his_o law_n for_o if_o our_o life_n be_v allow_v of_o man_n and_o that_o we_o flatter_v ourselves_o with_o our_o good_a intent_n what_o be_v it_o nothing_o according_a as_o we_o see_v in_o the_o popedom_n that_o such_o as_o imagine_v themselves_o to_o be_v most_o devout_a think_v that_o god_n be_v very_o much_o in_o their_o debt_n but_o yet_o for_o all_o that_o because_o they_o despise_v the_o holy_a scripture_n and_o lean_a too_o their_o own_o invention_n which_o they_o have_v build_v at_o adventure_n all_o be_v but_o trash_n and_o filthiness_n and_o therefore_o let_v we_o mark_v that_o if_o we_o will_v live_v well_o and_o have_v a_o right_n and_o certain_a rule_n it_o behove_v we_o to_o walk_v with_o god_n that_o be_v to_o say_v too_o walk_v upright_o we_o must_v frame_v both_o our_o thought_n &_o our_o deed_n unto_o his_o commandment_n &_o not_o unto_o man_n device_n nor_o to_o our_o own_o

no_o stead_n to_o have_v walk_v with_o god_n it_o be_v because_o he_o be_v as_o it_o be_v astraught_a in_o his_o torment_n and_o know_v not_o that_o god_n assist_v he_o for_o that_o he_o have_v serve_v he_o and_o conform_v and_o rule_v his_o life_n in_o all_o righteousness_n true_a it_o be_v that_o job_n know_v general_o that_o god_n be_v righteous_a &_o that_o we_o must_v not_o esteem_v or_o measure_v his_o righteousness_n by_o the_o present_a state_n of_o the_o world_n and_o the_o thing_n that_o be_v see_v with_o our_o eye_n for_o you_o see_v also_o that_o the_o controversy_n which_o he_o have_v against_o his_o friend_n be_v that_o the_o good_a man_n be_v afflict_v and_o trouble_v in_o this_o world_n and_o that_o the_o wicked_a do_v prosper_v and_o so_o that_o god_n have_v

what_o majesty_n soever_o he_o have_v and_o when_o prince_n and_o governor_n be_v wicked_a they_o will_v very_o ill_o discharge_v their_o duty_n and_o yet_o notwithstanding_o man_n bear_v with_o

now_o than_o we_o see_v what_o elius_n intent_n be_v howbeit_o for_o the_o better_a understanding_n of_o this_o text_n let_v we_o mark_v that_o although_o prince_n and_o governor_n be_v not_o such_o as_o they_o ought_v to_o be_v yet_o nevertheless_o god_n will_v have_v they_o to_o be_v honour_v and_o although_o that_o of_o themselves_o they_o be_v unworthy_a of_o it_o yet_o have_v god_n imprint_v

that_o they_o have_v none_o other_o care_n but_o to_o govern_v we_o well_o what_o matter_n be_v it_o to_o obey_v they_o we_o will_v do_v it_o in_o respect_n of_o ourselves_o and_o that_o be_v no_o

for_o their_o superior_n yet_o notwithstanding_o will_v not_o god_n have_v those_o to_o be_v receive_v for_o his_o sake_n which_o
otherwise_o be_v nothing_o worth_a you_o see_v then_o that_o we_o must_v be_v subject_a too_o such_o as_o have_v public_a power_n and_o authority_n because_o we_o know_v it_o be_v god_n will_v to_o

heavenly_a judge_n so_o we_o see_v in_o effect_n that_o we_o be_v bind_v too_o honour_v such_o as_o be_v in_o any_o public_a authority_n and_o why_o because_o they_o be_v not_o advance_v by_o

that_o they_o may_v be_v ashamed_a of_o it_o and_o repent_v it_o shall_v feel_v in_o the_o end_n that_o they_o must_v be_v fain_o too_o come_v before_o his_o judgement_n seat_n where_o there_o shall_v be_v no_o more_o darkness_n nor_o mist_n to_o hide_v they_o so_o then_o let_v we_o understand_v that_o it_o be_v great_o for_o our_o profit_n that_o god_n do_v nowadays_o send_v we_o his_o word_n too_o enlighten_v we_o that_o we_o may_v well_o bethink_v we_o of_o our_o sin_n insomuch_o that_o although_o we_o have_v not_o know_v they_o for_o a_o time_n yet_o they_o may_v come_v too_o our_o

they_o can_v now_o endure_v that_o god_n shall_v make_v they_o ashamed_a to_o the_o end_n to_o bury_v their_o sin_n for_o ever_o howbeit_o spite_n of_o their_o tooth_n both_o angel_n man_n and_o

we_o ought_v too_o apply_v this_o text_n too_o our_o instruction_n for_o sure_o our_o lord_n threatniug_v of_o man_n with_o the_o great_a day_n be_v too_o the_o end_n they_o shall_v prevent_v it_o and_o so_o the_o remedy_n be_v ready_a for_o we_o as_o i_o have_v erst_o say_v god_n delay_v not_o the_o indite_v of_o we_o till_o we_o appear_v before_o he_o altogether_o but_o he_o execute_v his_o jurisdiction_n daily_o by_o the_o gospel_n according_a also_o as_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n say_v that_o when_o the_o holy_a ghost_n come_v he_o shall_v judge_v the_o world_n therefore_o when_o the_o gospel_n be_v preach_v then_o do_v god_n execute_v a_o sovereign_a jurisdiction_n not_o proper_o upon_o man_n body_n as_o they_o be_v at_o this_o day_n but_o upon_o their_o soul_n and_o he_o will_v have_v we_o to_o be_v condemn_v there_o for_o our_o own_o welfare_n and_o therefore_o as_o i_o have_v touch_v already_o see_v that_o god_n do_v so_o much_o and_o so_o often_o warn_v we_o that_o we_o must_v in_o the_o end_n come_v to_o the_o great_a light_n let_v we_o not_o still_o shut_v our_o eye_n wilful_o nor_o witting_o be_v blind_v when_o he_o send_v we_o his_o word_n to_o discover_v

that_o there_o be_v no_o darkness_n before_o god_n for_o he_o will_v make_v we_o to_o behold_v those_o thing_n in_o his_o countenance_n and_o glorious_a majesty_n which_o we_o will_v not_o see_v here_o in_o the_o mirror_n of_o his_o word_n and_o eliu_n add_v immediate_o that_o he_o will_v not_o lay_v more_o upon_o man_n that_o they_o shall_v come_v to_o judgement_n with_o he_o this_o text_n be_v divers_o expound_v for_o some_o take_v it_o as_o though_o god_n will_v lay_v no_o more_o burden_n upon_o a_o man_n than_o he_o ought_v and_o than_o a_o man_n can_v bear_v but_o when_o the_o whole_a process_n of_o the_o text_n be_v well_o consider_v we_o shall_v find_v that_o forasmuch_o as_o this_o treatise_n concern_v god_n judgement_n eliu_n uphold_v that_o god_n afflict_v we_o not_o after_o such_o sort_n as_o we_o may_v have_v occasion_n too_o plead_v against_o he_o it_o behove_v we_o always_o too_o consider_v what_o matter_n he_o deal_v withal_o if_o a_o man_n will_v know_v what_o be_v mean_v by_o a_o sentence_n let_v he_o consider_v with_o himself_o the_o case_n concern_v such_o a_o thing_n that_o be_v the_o ground_n which_o be_v treat_v of_o and_o thereunto_o must_v the_o whole_a sequel_n be_v refer_v then_o if_o all_o thing_n be_v consider_v the_o general_a ground_n of_o this_o text_n be_v that_o man_n may_v peradventure_o grudge_v against_o god_n but_o in_o the_o end_n they_o shall_v be_v confound_v and_o why_o for_o although_o god_n seem_v as_o now_o to_o handle_v we_o with_o great_a rigour_n yet_o when_o thing_n be_v thorough_o well_o know_v our_o mouth_n shall_v be_v stop_v and_o god_n shall_v be_v glorify_v as_o it_o be_v say_v in_o the_o one_o and_o fifty_o psalm_n let_v we_o mark_v well_o then_o how_o it_o be_v show_v we_o here_o that_o for_o all_o our_o fair_a plead_n against_o god_n our_o case_n shall_v quail_v in_o the_o end_n and_o why_o for_o it_o will_v be_v find_v that_o god_n have_v not_o handle_v we_o unindifferent_o nor_o lay_v too_o sore_a a_o burden_n upon_o we_o that_o be_v too_o say_v he_o have_v not_o afflict_v we_o out_o of_o measure_n for_o although_o he_o do_v now_o and_o then_o strike_v man_n more_o than_o they_o be_v able_a too_o bear_v yet_o be_v it_o not_o more_o than_o reason_n nor_o more_o than_o they_o have_v deserve_v and_o hereby_o we_o be_v put_v in_o mind_n of_o the_o pride_n or_o rather_o of_o the_o rage_n that_o be_v in_o we_o which_o drive_v we_o too_o murmur_v against_o god_n for_o how_o do_v we_o plead_v with_o he_o it_o shall_v seem_v by_o we_o that_o there_o be_v some_o judge_n or_o vmper_v by_o who_o he_o shall_v be_v judge_v if_o god_n be_v to_o make_v a_o account_v shall_v we_o be_v the_o bold_a too_o spite_n he_o when_o he_o handle_v we_o not_o after_o our_o own_o like_n and_o that_o thing_n come_v not_o to_o pass_v as_o we_o will_v have_v they_o then_o let_v we_o learn_v that_o man_n be_v here_o condemn_v of_o the_o devilish_a pride_n which_o provoke_v they_o to_o plead_v against_o god_n howbeit_o it_o behove_v we_o to_o consider_v well_o that_o god_n will_v not_o abase_v himself_o so_o far_o as_o too_o answer_v we_o when_o we_o summon_v he_o to_o the_o law_n he_o will_v not_o in_o this_o case_n appear_v as_o our_o counterparty_n true_a it_o be_v as_o i_o have_v declare_v afore_o that_o he_o will_v doubtless_o come_v thither_o but_o to_o what_o end_n even_o to_o show_v the_o thing_n that_o be_v tell_v we_o here_o that_o be_v to_o wit_n that_o although_o we_o have_v the_o power_n to_o city_v god_n and_o that_o he_o be_v to_o make_v answer_n so_o as_o he_o be_v bind_v to_o clear_v himself_o of_o all_o his_o do_n and_o we_o may_v have_v our_o tongue_n at_o will_n to_o speak_v against_o he_o yet_o will_v that_o stand_v we_o in_o no_o stead_n for_o it_o the_o end_n when_o it_o come_v to_o the_o upshot_n it_o will_v be_v find_v that_o god_n have_v not_o charge_v we_o too_o sore_o nor_o above_o reason_n and_o why_o because_o our_o sin_n be_v know_v unto_o he_o and_o so_o know_v as_o he_o can_v tell_v what_o measure_n
of_o chastisement_n we_o deserve_v for_o they_o but_o the_o wellspring_n from_o whence_o this_o pride_n come_v be_v for_o that_o we_o will_v be_v our_o own_o judge_n to_o justify_v our_o self_n and_o who_o have_v give_v we_o so_o great_a authority_n behold_v all_o judgement_n be_v give_v unto_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n and_o therefore_o it_o behove_v we_o to_o come_v before_o he_o with_o

both_o judge_n and_o party_n and_o yet_o notwithstanding_o he_o will_v oftentimes_o judge_v wrongful_o for_o man_n be_v corruptible_a but_o yet_o for_o all_o that_o man_n change_v not_o in_o that_o

that_o god_n reserve_v judgement_n to_o himself_o it_o belong_v to_o i_o say_v he_o to_o consider_v your_o step_n it_o be_v i_o that_o do_v mark_v you_o and_o search_v even_o to_o the_o bottom_n it_o

what_o be_v to_o be_v do_v then_o when_o our_o lord_n afflict_v we_o let_v we_o refer_v our_o matter_n unto_o he_o assure_v ourselves_o that_o he_o spy_v many_o vice_n in_o we_o which_o be_v hide_v

to_o the_o end_n that_o every_o of_o we_o may_v stir_v up_o himself_o with_o it_o both_o early_o and_o late_o let_v we_o remember_v this_o text_n that_o god_n will_v not_o make_v long_a process_n in_o

as_o man_n fat_a ox_n and_o swine_n to_o the_o end_n to_o kill_v they_o we_o see_v that_o when_o a_o ox_n have_v be_v lean_a all_o his_o life_n long_o if_o a_o man_n intend_v to_o kill_v he_o he_o

that_o the_o state_n of_o the_o reprobate_n and_o despiser_n of_o god_n be_v never_o the_o better_a for_o that_o they_o be_v not_o punish_v out_o of_o hand_n according_a as_o we_o have_v see_v both_o

not_o the_o first_o day_n yet_o cease_v he_o not_o to_o hold_v they_o there_o still_o under_o his_o wrath_n and_o vengeance_n and_o therefore_o this_o text_n belong_v not_o unto_o they_o but_o when_o

for_o the_o better_a conceive_n of_o this_o doctrine_n let_v we_o mark_v that_o although_o we_o be_v in_o prosperity_n yet_o if_o in_o the_o mean_a while_n god_n be_v our_o enemy_n the_o mischief_n

of_o our_o sin_n to_o the_o end_n there_o may_v be_v nothing_o in_o we_o that_o may_v kindle_v he_o against_o we_o or_o displease_v he_o true_a it_o be_v that_o the_o chastisement_n and_o correction_n which_o god_n send_v we_o be_v as_o stroke_n of_o a_o spur_n too_o prick_v we_o forward_o and_o when_o he_o see_v we_o dull_a he_o drive_v we_o by_o that_o mean_n to_o repentance_n but_o yet_o must_v we_o not_o be_v at_o this_o point_n to_o say_v well_o i_o be_o content_a so_o god_n withdraw_v his_o hand_n from_o i_o no_o we_o must_v not_o do_v so_o for_o we_o shall_v have_v gain_v very_o little_a if_o we_o get_v nothing_o but_o that_o what_o then_o let_v we_o go_v unto_o our_o god_n and_o pray_v he_o to_o be_v at_o one_o with_o we_o and_o to_o do_v so_o much_o for_o we_o that_o when_o we_o

more_o rough_o upon_o we_o why_o so_o if_o a_o man_n be_v chastise_v he_o feel_v that_o god_n visit_v he_o and_o perceive_v all_o thing_n to_o go_v better_o with_o he_o so_o then_o a_o man_n humble_v

by_o allege_v his_o mighty_a power_n but_o it_o behove_v we_o to_o bear_v in_o mind_n how_o it_o have_v be_v declare_v afore_o that_o when_o god_n be_v mount_v up_o into_o his_o seat_n he_o do_v not_o

and_o uprightness_n insomuch_o that_o he_o can_v no_o more_o be_v bereave_v of_o they_o than_o of_o his_o own_o be_v on_o the_o other_o side_n the_o case_n stand_v not_o here_o upon_o show_v what_o god_n intend_v but_o of_o his_o make_n of_o man_n to_o feel_v their_o own_o frailty_n therefore_o here_o be_v a_o compare_v of_o thing_n contrary_a for_o on_o the_o one_o side_n god_n show_v that_o all_o power_n belong_v unto_o he_o without_o exception_n and_o on_o the_o other_o side_n he_o warn_v we_o to_o consider_v well_o what_o we_o ourselves_o be_v and_o what_o our_o sinfulness_n be_v and_o to_o beware_v how_o a_o mortal_a man_n that_o be_v but_o a_o worm_n of_o the_o earth_n shall_v take_v so_o stout_o upon_o he_o as_z to_o dare_v stand_v in_o contention_n with_o his_o god_n and_o desire_v to_o over-rule_v he_o and_o sure_o so_o often_o as_o we_o murmur_v against_o god_n and_o can_v accept_v the_o thing_n in_o good_a worth_n which_o come_v from_o he_o we_o know_v he_o not_o so_o then_o let_v we_o mark_v well_o that_o the_o holy_a ghost_n do_v here_o bring_v man_n back_o to_o their_o own_o state_n for_o never_o dare_v they_o be_v so_o bold_a as_o to_o grudge_v against_o god_n except_o they_o have_v forget_v what_o they_o themselves_o be_v will_v we_o then_o be_v lowly_a and_o mild_a to_o glorify_v god_n as_o it_o become_v we_o âª_o let_v we_o enter_v into_o ourselves_o and_o examine_v well_o what_o our_o nature_n be_v and_o when_o we_o know_v that_o we_o be_v but_o man_n it_o will_v hold_v we_o short_a from_o any_o presumption_n thus_o we_o see_v what_o we_o have_v too_o bear_v away_o in_o this_o text_n and_o further_o it_o be_v say_v thou_o have_v mislike_v thou_o shall_v choose_v and_o not_o i_o here_o again_o in_o this_o strain_v god_n be_v bring_v in_o complain_v of_o man_n pride_n for_o plead_v so_o against_o he_o for_o sure_o they_o that_o can_v content_v themselves_o with_o god_n will_n do_v mislike_v his_o do_n and_o by_o that_o mean_n pretend_v to_o have_v choyze_n &_o election_n as_o though_o it_o be_v free_a for_o they_o too_o say_v this_o be_v not_o well_o do_v god_n must_v leave_v to_o do_v so_o true_a it_o be_v that_o we_o will_v abhor_v such_o blasphemy_n and_o if_o it_o shall_v be_v demand_v whether_o any_o of_o we_o will_v take_v upon_o he_o to_o let_v god_n of_o the_o execute_n of_o his_o determination_n every_o of_o we_o will_v answer_v god_n forbid_v that_o ever_o
strong_a god_n truth_n be_v and_o that_o it_o be_v in_o vain_a too_o fight_v against_o it_o and_o that_o although_o we_o be_v fence_v and_o have_v many_o partaker_n yet_o must_v god_n always_o have_v the_o upper_a hand_n so_o as_o his_o righteousness_n shall_v continue_v unappayr_v when_o we_o have_v bark_v our_o fill_n against_o it_o we_o shall_v not_o be_v able_a to_o bite_v it_o as_o shall_v be_v say_v anon_o mark_v i_o say_v what_o we_o have_v to_o remember_v in_o this_o strain_n and_o therefore_o first_o of_o all_o let_v we_o learn_v not_o to_o be_v lavish_a of_o our_o tong_n when_o god_n afflict_v we_o and_o when_o thing_n go_v not_o after_o our_o mind_n let_v we_o not_o be_v impatient_a therefore_o in_o our_o affliction_n but_o let_v we_o always_o humble_a ourselves_o under_o he_o acknowledge_v that_o he_o be_v righteous_a howsoever_o the_o world_n go_v for_o if_o we_o be_v so_o bold_a as_o to_o barret_n with_o he_o it_o will_v be_v to_o our_o great_a confusion_n and_o shame_n you_o see_v then_o how_o all_o man_n ought_v to_o bridle_v &_o as_o it_o be_v to_o imprison_v themselves_o too_o the_o end_n they_o may_v never_o murmur_v against_o god_n nor_o blaspheme_v he_o furthermore_o though_o we_o have_v many_o partaker_n yet_o shall_v it_o not_o boot_n we_o for_o god_n will_v not_o suffer_v himself_o too_o be_v overcome_v by_o never_o so_o great_a multitude_n of_o man_n it_o shall_v be_v in_o vain_a for_o we_o to_o assemble_v man_n of_o our_o own_o retinue_n for_o we_o shall_v all_o of_o we_o be_v put_v too_o the_o foil_n together_o if_o all_o the_o world_n have_v make_v a_o confederacy_n to_o spite_n god_n he_o will_v not_o pass_v of_o it_o he_o will_v but_o laugh_v they_o to_o scorn_v according_a as_o it_o be_v say_v in_o the_o second_o psalm_n that_o when_o the_o king_n of_o the_o earth_n have_v consult_v together_o and_o the_o people_n have_v storm_v as_o much_o as_o they_o list_v he_o that_o be_v above_o will_v laugh_v they_o to_o scorn_v thus_o you_o see_v that_o the_o second_o point_n which_o we_o have_v to_o mark_v be_v that_o we_o must_v not_o think_v our_o case_n to_o be_v the_o better_a when_o we_o have_v many_o adherent_n and_o partaker_n for_o god_n will_v condemn_v all_o the_o whole_a pack_n of_o we_o and_o furthermore_o we_o see_v also_o on_o the_o other_o part_n that_o when_o we_o have_v god_n truth_n on_o our_o side_n we_o must_v not_o stick_v to_o maintain_v it_o and_o why_o for_o he_o will_v give_v we_o mouth_n and_o wisdom_n and_o also_o power_n to_o beat_v back_o all_o our_o enemy_n and_o we_o have_v great_a need_n in_o these_o day_n to_o be_v arm_v with_o such_o assurance_n for_o we_o see_v with_o what_o furiousness_n the_o enemy_n of_o the_o gospel_n set_v up_o themselves_o because_o we_o be_v but_o a_o handful_n of_o people_n and_o they_o a_o great_a multitude_n and_o that_o in_o a_o manner_n the_o whole_a world_n agree_v with_o they_o to_o pratice_v our_o death_n they_o bear_v themselves_o in_o hand_n that_o the_o goal_n go_v on_o their_o side_n and_o there_o be_v nothing_o but_o triumph_v amongst_o they_o before_o any_o stroke_n be_v strike_v what_o a_o thing_n be_v it_o then_o if_o we_o know_v not_o that_o which_o be_v show_v we_o here_o that_o be_v to_o wit_n that_o forasmuch_o as_o we_o have_v the_o truth_n on_o our_o side_n one_o of_o we_o may_v always_o fight_v against_o a_o hundred_o thousand_o and_o we_o need_v not_o to_o be_v afraid_a when_o the_o papist_n come_v stout_o against_o we_o with_o their_o ergo_n although_o they_o be_v a_o great_a host_n and_o we_o few_o or_o none_o in_o comparison_n no_o no_o let_v not_o that_o abash_v we_o and_o why_o for_o this_o say_n i_o will_v answer_v thou_o and_o thy_o companion_n be_v not_o write_v alone_o for_o the_o person_n of_o eliu_n but_o the_o holy_a ghost_n give_v we_o that_o promise_n to_o the_o intent_n we_o shall_v not_o stick_v to_o enter_v into_o battle_n and_o to_o stand_v stout_o to_o it_o to_o the_o uttermost_a sith_o we_o know_v our_o case_n be_v good_a and_o that_o god_n fight_v for_o we_o because_o we_o maintain_v his_o quarrel_n therefore_o when_o we_o have_v such_o a_o certainty_n let_v we_o fight_v bold_o against_o our_o enemy_n for_o they_o must_v needs_o be_v confound_v in_o the_o end_n thus_o you_o see_v what_o we_o have_v to_o bear_v in_o mind_n and_o how_o we_o may_v put_v this_o text_n in_o ure_n to_o apply_v it_o to_o our_o instruction_n special_o at_o this_o present_a time_n when_o we_o see_v the_o whole_a world_n imbattayled_a against_o god_n and_o the_o multitude_n of_o enemy_n so_o great_a as_o it_o may_v utter_o discourage_v we_o if_o our_o lord_n do_v not_o comfort_v we_o by_o tell_v we_o that_o we_o have_v wherewith_o to_o answer_v for_o he_o though_o there_o be_v never_o so_o many_o gaynsayer_n that_o be_v so_o confederate_a together_o now_o let_v we_o come_v to_o the_o answer_n that_o eliu_n make_v behold_v the_o sky_n say_v he_o look_v up_o too_o the_o great_a heaven_n they_o be_v high_a than_o thou_o and_o thou_o can_v never_o reach_v too_o they_o this_o seem_v to_o be_v a_o very_a raw_a answer_n for_o have_v he_o none_o other_o reason_n whereby_o too_o show_v the_o righteousness_n of_o god_n yes_o but_o if_o this_o say_n be_v apply_v as_o it_o ought_v to_o be_v it_o be_v enough_o to_o stop_v the_o mouth_n of_o all_o such_o as_o blaspheme_v god_n for_o by_o behold_v of_o the_o heaven_n he_o lead_v we_o to_o another_o consideration_n which_o be_v that_o our_o do_v well_o profit_v not_o our_o god_n and_o that_o our_o do_v evil_a can_v hurt_v he_o for_o what_o shall_v he_o be_v the_o worse_a for_o it_o see_v it_o be_v so_o he_o be_v not_o to_o be_v measure_v according_a unto_o man_n for_o he_o be_v not_o revengeful_a as_o who_o will_v say_v he_o be_v angry_a when_o a_o man_n do_v he_o wrong_n or_o that_o he_o be_v lead_v by_o affection_n like_o a_o man_n that_o look_v to_o be_v please_v and_o think_v himself_o behold_v to_o another_o man_n for_o do_v he_o any_o service_n god_n be_v none_o such_o so_o then_o we_o must_v not_o measure_v he_o by_o our_o own_o meateyearde_n nor_o imagine_v any_o fleshliness_n in_o he_o for_o the_o very_a sky_n that_o be_v under_o his_o foot_n do_v show_v well_o that_o he_o be_v not_o like_o we_o nor_o meddle_v here_o with_o we_o to_o have_v any_o part_n at_o all_o of_o our_o nature_n therefore_o we_o see_v that_o this_o reason_n where_o it_o be_v say_v behold_v the_o sky_n and_o look_v up_o above_o thy_o head_n be_v sufficient_a too_o beat_v down_o all_o those_o that_o dare_v lift_v up_o themselves_o against_o god_n but_o now_o it_o be_v needful_a to_o lay_v out_o that_o which_o follow_v by_o peecemele_n too_o the_o end_n it_o may_v be_v the_o better_a understand_v when_o eliu_n say_v if_o thou_o do_v good_a what_o profit_n do_v god_n receive_v by_o it_o he_o show_v thereby_o that_o god_n be_v not_o bind_v unto_o we_o mark_v that_o for_o the_o first_o point_n the_o second_o be_v that_o he_o be_v not_o affection_a as_o man_n be_v when_o any_o pleasure_n be_v do_v they_o they_o be_v move_v with_o it_o because_o they_o be_v passable_a but_o god_n be_v not_o so_o we_o can_v neither_o show_v he_o friendship_n nor_o favour_n and_o so_o he_o be_v not_o like_a unto_o we_o and_o as_o touch_v the_o first_o point_n namely_o that_o god_n be_v by_o no_o mean_n bind_v unto_o we_o do_v what_o we_o can_v it_o be_v a_o very_a true_a thing_n notwithstanding_o we_o see_v how_o man_n grow_v proud_a yea_o even_o without_o cause_n or_o occasion_n &_o will_v make_v god_n believe_v that_o he_o be_v behold_v to_o they_o although_o they_o can_v bring_v he_o nothing_o and_o this_o draw_v after_o it_o a_o mischeevouse_n tail_n of_o superstition_n why_o do_v the_o papist_n labour_v so_o much_o at_o this_o day_n for_o these_o ceremony_n and_o gewgaw_n it_o be_v because_o they_o think_v that_o god_n receive_v some_o profit_n by_o they_o when_o they_o make_v many_o gewgaw_n and_o have_v babble_a and_o trot_v from_o place_n to_o place_n they_o think_v they_o have_v make_v a_o fair_a work_n when_o their_o churchstuffe_n be_v well_o deck_v and_o when_o they_o have_v well_o trim_v and_o wash_v their_o puppet_n as_o if_o a_o man_n have_v make_v a_o goodly_a banquet_n and_o deck_v up_o a_o house_n &_o bestraw_v it_o with_o rush_n and_o other_o thing_n the_o papist_n i_o say_v surmise_v that_o god_n delight_v in_o these_o nice_a toy_n and_o that_o he_o take_v pleasure_n in_o they_o but_o we_o must_v not_o imagine_v that_o we_o can_v bring_v any_o thing_n unto_o god_n and_o that_o be_v the_o cause_n why_o
dear_a for_o the_o time_n when_o they_o shall_v so_o abuse_v his_o patience_n which_o will_v allure_v they_o unto_o goodness_n by_o give_v they_o respite_n to_o amend_v see_v then_o that_o the_o wicked_a do_v so_o mock_v at_o god_n horrible_a vengeance_n must_v needs_o fall_v upon_o their_o head_n in_o the_o end_n and_o that_o shall_v be_v at_o the_o great_a day_n furthermore_o if_o god_n spare_v we_o let_v we_o not_o cease_v too_o be_v watchful_a and_o if_o he_o chastise_v we_o and_o beat_v we_o with_o his_o rod_n let_v we_o always_o consider_v how_o terrible_a his_o wrath_n be_v and_o thereupon_o conclude_v that_o he_o do_v but_o summon_v we_o and_o why_o too_o the_o end_n we_o shall_v prevent_v his_o last_o judgement_n therefore_o let_v we_o always_o think_v upon_o the_o great_a day_n and_o not_o tarry_v till_o we_o be_v take_v tardy_a with_o the_o come_n of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n but_o let_v every_o of_o we_o condemn_v himself_o when_o god_n stir_v we_o thereunto_o furthermore_o let_v we_o always_o bear_v in_o remembrance_n that_o god_n be_v oftentimes_o mindful_a of_o mercy_n in_o the_o mid_n of_o his_o displeasure_n and_o that_o the_o same_o be_v the_o cause_n why_o he_o examine_v not_o the_o great_a multitude_n of_o our_o sin_n for_o how_o great_a be_v the_o multitude_n of_o our_o sin_n i_o pray_v you_o if_o every_o man_n will_v examine_v himself_o as_o he_o ought_v to_o do_v shall_v he_o not_o find_v a_o infinite_a number_n of_o sin_n in_o he_o yea_o and_o of_o so_o heinous_a offence_n as_o will_v utter_o dismay_v he_o but_o the_o

thorough_o he_o shall_v find_v himself_o a_o hundred_o thousand_o time_n confound_v before_o he_o come_v half_o too_o his_o way_n end_v for_o god_n see_v much_o more_o clear_o than_o we_o do_v when_o we_o have_v spy_v one_o fault_n god_n will_v spy_v out_o a_o hundred_o thousand_o yea_o even_o of_o million_o what_o shall_v the_o heavenly_a judge_n do_v so_o then_o let_v we_o mark_v that_o god_n forbear_v we_o of_o his_o own_o mercy_n to_o the_o end_n he_o will_v not_o try_v we_o in_o the_o multitude_n of_o our_o sin_n that_o be_v too_o say_v not_o search_v we_o to_o the_o uttermost_a and_o

we_o must_v needs_o think_v that_o there_o be_v a_o far_a other_o judgement_n than_o can_v be_v perceive_v in_o this_o world_n howbeit_o we_o know_v it_o not_o as_o yet_o and_o god_n bear_v with_o

oftentimes_o speak_v of_o nevertheless_o we_o can_v hear_v of_o it_o to_o much_o for_o we_o know_v that_o affliction_n be_v so_o irksome_a to_o we_o that_o every_o of_o we_o fall_v to_o chafe_v as_o

in_o his_o sin_n it_o stand_v we_o upon_o too_o suffer_v god_n patient_o too_o scourge_v we_o for_o affliction_n be_v the_o true_a schoolmistress_n to_o bring_v man_n to_o repentance_n to_o the_o

when_o we_o be_v in_o prosperity_n yes_o sure_o do_v he_o but_o his_o voice_n can_v come_v unto_o we_o for_o we_o be_v fraught_v aforehand_o with_o our_o own_o delight_n and_o worldly_a affection_n

of_o the_o ancient_a father_n we_o have_v afar_o better_a recompense_n which_o ought_v to_o comfort_v we_o for_o example_n let_v we_o take_v but_o only_o that_o which_o be_v say_v concern_v long_a

the_o sovereign_n good_a thing_n it_o be_v not_o the_o true_a and_o perfect_a happiness_n no_o it_o come_v far_o short_a of_o it_o but_o we_o must_v also_o add_v the_o second_o point_n which_o be_v that_o the_o father_n of_o old_a time_n know_v not_o yet_o so_o perfect_o as_o we_o do_v that_o god_n have_v prepare_v they_o a_o heritage_n in_o heaven_n true_a it_o be_v that_o they_o have_v some_o

adays_o our_o life_n be_v short_a and_o that_o be_v because_o jesus_n christ_n be_v appear_v unto_o we_o and_o have_v show_v we_o that_o we_o be_v but_o stranger_n in_o this_o world_n that_o we_o may_v run_v to_o the_o heritage_n which_o be_v purchase_v by_o his_o blood_n the_o thing_n that_o be_v then_o but_o in_o shadow_n be_v too_o be_v confirm_v by_o visible_a benefit_n but_o now_o we_o have_v the_o substance_n the_o shadow_n and_o figure_n be_v past_a we_o have_v the_o body_n of_o they_o in_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n therefore_o we_o must_v be_v content_v with_o whatsoever_o god_n give_v we_o and_o refer_v ourselves_o whole_o to_o his_o guide_n and_o furthermore_o let_v we_o understand_v that_o we_o must_v be_v content_v with_o the_o life_n that_o we_o have_v live_v whensoever_o it_o shall_v please_v god_n to_o take_v we_o out_o of_o the_o world_n true_a it_o be_v that_o when_o the_o scripture_n speak_v so_o of_o job_n and_o abraham_n that_o they_o die_v old_a

such_o other_o like_o will_v ever_o have_v be_v satisfy_v with_o live_v in_o this_o world_n if_o they_o have_v not_o amed_z at_o a_o better_a and_o more_o excellent_a end_n you_o see_v they_o how_o

for_o if_o they_o have_v live_v a_o hundred_o thousand_o year_n yet_o will_v they_o fain_o tarry_v here_o beneath_o still_o for_o they_o have_v none_o other_o hope_v but_o of_o this_o present_a life_n &_o it_o seem_v to_o they_o that_o death_n dispatch_v all_o and_o that_o be_v the_o cause_n why_o they_o be_v never_o ready_a to_o go_v out_o of_o the_o world_n contrariwise_o the_o father_n of_o

to_o take_v knowledge_n of_o god_n fatherly_a love_n thereby_o for_o if_o you_o live_v but_o three_o day_n in_o this_o world_n it_o be_v enough_o to_o give_v we_o a_o taste_n of_o god_n goodness_n &_o

then_o that_o we_o must_v always_o be_v satisfy_v with_o life_n see_v that_o god_n have_v give_v we_o so_o good_a a_o pledge_n of_o his_o love_n in_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n and_o we_o must_v not_o desire_v too_o have_v our_o life_n prolong_v here_o to_o the_o end_n to_o have_v a_o large_a confirmation_n thereof_o wherefore_o let_v we_o continual_o pray_v he_o that_o have_v guide_v we_o

can_v they_o enjoy_v it_o for_o ever_o if_o god_n shall_v not_o continue_v the_o say_a grace_n which_o he_o have_v put_v into_o they_o and_o like_v as_o we_o speak_v of_o life_n so_o must_v we_o speak_v of_o righteousness_n also_o the_o angel_n be_v not_o steadfast_a further_o forth_o than_o god_n hold_v they_o up_o by_o his_o hand_n right_o be_v they_o call_v principality_n &_o power_n but_o that_o be_v because_o god_n execute_v his_o power_n by_o they_o and_o guide_v they_o to_o be_v short_a the_o angel_n have_v nothing_o in_o themselves_o whereof_o to_o make_v their_o boast_n for_o

will_v deal_v rigorous_o with_o they_o very_o this_o seem_v strange_a to_o such_o as_o be_v not_o exercise_v in_o the_o holy_a scripture_n but_o if_o we_o wist_v what_o the_o righteousness_n of_o

to_o this_o point_n that_o the_o good_a thing_n that_o be_v in_o all_o creature_n be_v small_a in_o estimation_n of_o that_o which_o be_v in_o god_n which_o be_v utter_o infinite_a therefore_o we_o must_v always_o put_v a_o difference_n between_o the_o one_o &_o the_o other_o we_o see_v the_o angel_n have_v wonderful_a power_n &_o virtue_n special_o in_o respect_n of_o we_o for_o notwithstanding_o that_o the_o angel_n abide_v in_o the_o degree_n of_o creature_n yet_o may_v we_o well_o glorify_v they_o but_o when_o we_o come_v to_o god_n the_o greatness_n of_o he_o must_v

so_o as_o no_o star_n can_v be_v pereeyve_v when_o the_o sun_n have_v his_o full_a power_n and_o what_o will_v be_v do_v they_o when_o god_n himself_o come_v forth_o as_o the_o prophet_n isaiah_n

which_o be_v speak_v here_o that_o be_v to_o wit_n that_o god_n find_v lack_n in_o his_o angel_n although_o they_o be_v his_o servant_n and_o yet_o this_o be_v no_o let_v but_o that_o the_o service_n which_o the_o angel_n do_v unto_o god_n be_v perfect_a according_a to_o the_o perfection_n that_o can_v be_v in_o creature_n likewise_o as_o in_o that_o respect_n when_o in_o pray_v we_o desire_v

which_o i_o have_v touch_v that_o as_o long_o as_o we_o go_v no_o further_o but_o to_o the_o degree_n &_o state_n of_o creature_n there_o shall_v be_v a_o perfection_n in_o the_o angel_n very_o such_o
