my_o heart_n be_v empty_a of_o all_o this_o be_v the_o complaint_n often_o even_o of_o those_o that_o have_v grace_n why_o if_o there_o be_v no_o light_n no_o grace_n yet_o he_o can_v work_v it_o

itself_o and_o to_o justice_n and_o patience_n 2_o those_o that_o bring_v any_o special_a help_n and_o comfort_n to_o the_o life_n of_o man_n as_o they_o that_o do_v invent_v useful_a art_n as_o

which_o be_v strong_a than_o themselves_o therefore_o tully_n say_v we_o build_v a_o temple_n to_o fever_n to_o disease_n because_o they_o be_v strong_a than_o they_o they_o can_v kill_v man_n when_o they_o do_v seize_v upon_o they_o so_o they_o do_v build_v a_o temple_n to_o fortune_n now_o to_o translate_v this_o to_o ourselves_o see_v if_o we_o have_v not_o the_o same_o ground_n with_o we_o see_v if_o the_o thing_n that_o have_v any_o excellency_n among_o man_n if_o the_o thing_n that_o be_v profitable_a to_o we_o and_o thing_n that_o exceed_v we_o in_o strength_n and_o overpower_v we_o whether_o they_o be_v not_o ready_a to_o be_v set_v up_o as_o god_n when_o man_n spend_v themselves_o upon_o their_o pleasure_n and_o be_v afraid_a of_o man_n what_o be_v this_o but_o to_o set_v up_o

no_o creature_n in_o the_o world_n that_o can_v do_v either_o good_a or_o hurt_n as_o it_o be_v say_v of_o idol_n but_o when_o our_o affection_n be_v so_o inordinate_o carry_v to_o they_o we_o set_v they_o up_o for_o god_n though_o we_o observe_v it_o not_o it_o be_v god_n prerogative_n royal_a and_o it_o belong_v only_o to_o he_o to_o do_v good_a or_o evil_a whatsoever_o be_v either_o good_a

from_o who_o he_o will_n therefore_o why_o be_v he_o forget_v and_o why_o do_v man_n join_v other_o thing_n with_o he_o so_o far_o as_o man_n see_v not_o the_o vanity_n of_o all_o thing_n and_o so_o far_o as_o their_o affection_n be_v take_v up_o with_o these_o outward_a thing_n so_o much_o idolatry_n there_o be_v in_o their_o heart_n therefore_o you_o must_v take_v heed_n that_o you_o give_v not_o god_n glory_n to_o another_o take_v heed_n of_o idolatry_n in_o your_o opinion_n give_v not_o the_o glory_n of_o god_n to_o riches_n for_o that_o which_o a_o man_n mind_n be_v set_v most_o upon_o and_o which_o he_o look_v for_o comfort_n from_o in_o time_n of_o need_n this_o they_o count_v as_o god_n so_o that_o whatsoever_o it_o be_v riches_n or_o the_o favour_n of_o man_n if_o you_o set_v your_o mind_n upon_o it_o you_o make_v it_o as_o god_n and_o it_o be_v to_o give_v the_o glory_n of_o god_n to_o another_o we_o must_v not_o trust_v in_o they_o psal._n 115.9_o but_o trust_v in_o god_n 115.9_o o_o israel_n trust_v thou_o in_o the_o lord_n he_o be_v their_o help_n and_o their_o shield_n now_o then_o we_o exalt_v he_o when_o we_o trust_v only_o in_o he_o when_o we_o trust_v

because_o some_o have_v dispute_v it_o therefore_o we_o will_v brief_o answer_v it_o answ._n the_o scripture_n be_v clear_a in_o it_o that_o he_o be_v without_o the_o world_n there_o be_v no_o limit_n

but_o god_n be_v without_o all_o part_n whereso_o ever_o he_o be_v he_o must_v be_v total_o there_o therefore_o you_o must_v not_o conceive_v god_n be_v commensurable_a by_o the_o place_n as_o if_o

for_o though_o there_o be_v mean_n use_v yet_o he_o be_v present_a with_o those_o mean_n other_o king_n must_v needs_o govern_v by_o deputy_n and_o viceroy_n and_o inferior_a magistrate_n of_o
