to_o ourselves_o for_o the_o chief_a point_n be_v that_o man_n shall_v know_v god_n goodness_n power_n wisdom_n and_o justice_n according_a as_o they_o be_v show_v unto_o they_o and_o as_o they_o perceive_v they_o and_o be_v partaker_n of_o they_o therefore_o whereas_o it_o be_v say_v here_o that_o the_o call_a time_n of_o the_o hind_n be_v not_o know_v unto_o man_n that_o be_v to_o say_v that_o it_o be_v not_o in_o man_n to_o appoint_v it_o let_v we_o understand_v that_o we_o must_v not_o try_v mastery_n with_o god_n in_o go_v about_o too_o wrest_n ourselves_o out_o of_o his_o

expire_v he_o deliver_v they_o give_v they_o help_n and_o guide_v the_o matter_n as_o he_o himself_o have_v ordain_v it_o behove_v we_o to_o conclude_v thereupon_o that_o he_o have_v reserve_v the_o

such_o murmur_n to_o lift_v up_o ourselves_o after_o that_o fashion_n against_o god_n let_v we_o come_v back_o to_o our_o birth_n and_o say_v alas_o how_o come_v thou_o out_o of_o thy_o mother_n

it_o be_v not_o without_o cause_n that_o god_n purpose_v here_o to_o commend_v his_o servant_n job_n match_v these_o two_o thing_n together_o namely_o that_o he_o have_v live_v upright_o among_o man_n

on_o all_o side_n how_o then_o shall_v we_o walk_v as_o it_o become_v we_o it_o behove_v we_o to_o endeavour_n to_o withdraw_v ourselves_o from_o evil_a yea_o even_o from_o the_o evil_a that_o be_v

of_o all_o let_v we_o take_v heed_n of_o ourselves_o and_o of_o our_o wicked_a affection_n which_o serve_v to_o turn_v we_o aside_o from_o god_n then_o afterward_o let_v we_o beware_v of_o lewd_a

this_o be_v it_o that_o we_o have_v to_o mark_v in_o this_o strain_v according_a also_o as_o job_n show_v we_o by_o his_o own_o example_n say_v thou_o have_v speak_v like_o a_o foolish_a woman_n

of_o hell_n he_o resist_v she_o stout_o we_o see_v then_o with_o what_o courage_n we_o ought_v too_o proceed_v in_o such_o case_n and_o how_o it_o be_v no_o dally_n with_o satan_n see_v we_o find_v

a_o eye_n to_o that_o which_o have_v be_v recite_v heretofore_o for_o as_o i_o have_v say_v if_o a_o man_n upbray_v we_o that_o it_o be_v but_o a_o vain_a thing_n to_o trust_v in_o god_n true_a it_o

virtue_n we_o see_v most_o certain_o that_o both_o his_o glory_n and_o his_o godhead_n and_o his_o be_v be_v quite_o abolish_v so_o then_o job_n can_v not_o bear_v with_o such_o blasphemy_n

sturdy_a against_o he_o and_o contrariwise_o that_o such_o as_o trust_v in_o he_o shall_v be_v hedge_v in_o with_o mercy_n that_o be_v too_o say_v that_o god_n will_v on_o all_o side_n bless_v they_o and_o make_v they_o to_o prosper_v we_o see_v here_o a_o princely_a promise_n which_o seem_v to_o exempt_a god_n child_n from_o all_o adversity_n but_o yet_o it_o behove_v we_o so_o to_o expound_v

needy_a so_o as_o we_o shall_v feel_v no_o scarcity_n or_o so_o as_o we_o shall_v never_o have_v any_o grief_n god_n mind_v not_o to_o use_v such_o manner_n of_o deal_v for_o it_o be_v not_o

thus_o we_o see_v after_o what_o manner_n our_o lord_n work_v also_o let_v we_o note_v that_o too_o judge_v well_o it_o behove_v to_o bear_v this_o point_n always_o in_o mind_n that_o be_v too_o wit_n not_o only_o that_o god_n punish_v such_o as_o be_v the_o worst_a sort_n but_o also_o that_o he_o exercise_v the_o patience_n of_o his_o faithful_a one_o scourge_v they_o and_o handle_v they_o far_o more_o rough_o than_o he_o do_v the_o wicked_a to_o be_v short_a let_v we_o always_o have_v a_o eye_n to_o the_o issue_n as_o i_o have_v say_v and_o let_v we_o not_o marvel_v though_o we_o see_v not_o god_n help_v at_o the_o first_o day_n lo_o here_o the_o principle_n which_o we_o must_v lay_v before_o we_o that_o we_o may_v know_v how_o to_o make_v our_o own_o profit_n by_o that_o which_o be_v recite_v to_o we_o here_o as_o touch_v the_o word_n that_o eliphas_n use_v they_o be_v these_o if_o a_o man_n attempt_v talk_n or_o if_o a_o man_n raise_v talk_n for_o as_o well_o the_o one_o as_o the_o other_o may_v be_v speak_v because_o the_o hebrew_n wordhath_fw-mi a_o double_a signification_n and_o forasmuch_o as_o the_o hebrew_n word_n which_o be_v put_v here_o for_o talk_n or_o speech_n be_v sometime_o take_v also_o for_o a_o thing_n some_o understand_v it_o thus_o if_o god_n tempt_v thou_o be_v it_o meet_v that_o thou_o shall_v be_v so_o far_o out_o of_o patience_n be_v it_o meet_v that_o thou_o shall_v be_v so_o sore_o move_v for_o we_o know_v that_o the_o scripture_n term_v it_o a_o temptation_n when_o we_o be_v trouble_v and_o when_o god_n try_v we_o after_o what_o manner_n so_o ever_o it_o be_v so_o then_o the_o mean_a shall_v be_v such_o as_o this_o be_v it_o meet_v that_o thou_o shall_v repine_v against_o god_n when_o thou_o see_v that_o he_o try_v and_o tempt_v thou_o that_o be_v too_o say_v when_o thou_o see_v that_o he_o mind_v too_o prove_v what_o be_v in_o thou_o but_o if_o all_o thing_n be_v thorough_o consider_v the_o natural_a meaning_n be_v if_o a_o man_n assay_v or_o atumpt_v too_o speak_v and_o why_o so_o for_o eliphas_n add_v immediate_o and_o who_o be_v be_v that_o can_v withhold_v himself_o from_o speak_v as_o if_o he_o shall_v say_v thou_o be_v so_o far_o out_o of_o square_n against_o all_o reason_n that_o man_n must_v needs_o find_v fault_n with_o thou_o and_o there_o be_v not_o the_o mild_a man_n in_o the_o world_n but_o he_o shall_v be_v constrain_v to_o rebuke_v thou_o if_o he_o see_v thy_o outrageousness_n and_o thy_o behave_v of_o thyself_o here_o like_o a_o sauge_n beast_n therefore_o thou_o must_v be_v restrain_v for_o thou_o will_v enforce_v the_o meek_a man_n alive_a too_o speak_v lo_o here_o the_o plain_a meaning_n but_o in_o effect_n eliphassis_fw-la mind_n be_v too_o show_v that_o job_n have_v not_o walk_v aright_o nor_o with_o a_o clear_a conscience_n before_o god_n lo_o here_o the_o first_o point_n afterwards_o he_o enter_v into_o this_o general_a argument_n which_o i_o have_v touch_v that_o be_v to_o wit_n that_o the_o righteous_a be_v never_o oppress_v in_o that_o wise_a with_o affliction_n but_o that_o it_o be_v always_o a_o token_n of_o god_n vengeance_n and_o therefore_o when_o he_o perceive_v that_o job_n be_v torment_v in_o this_o wise_n he_o deem_v he_o to_o be_v a_o reprobate_a person_n thus_o you_o see_v the_o two_o point_n and_o now_o let_v we_o come_v unto_o the_o first_o of_o they_o he_o say_v unto_o he_o thou_o beeâ—etofore_o baste_v teach_v the_o whole_a world_n thou_o baste_v strengthen_v the_o quiver_a knee_n thou_o have_v refresh_v the_o weary_a hand_n thou_o baste_v amond_v such_o as_o do_v amiss_o thou_o have_v comfort_v such_o as_o be_v torment_v and_o now_o when_o the_o misery_n be_v come_v upon_o thyself_o i_o see_v thou_o be_v out_o of_o quiet_a and_o therefore_o i_o conclude_v that_o the_o fear_n of_o god_n which_o thou_o have_v have_v be_v no_o more_o but_o the_o very_a same_o hope_n which_o thou_o pretend_v namely_o that_o god_n shall_v always_o have_v be_v favourable_a unto_o thou_o too_o be_v short_a thou_o haste_v serve_v god_n upon_o usury_n it_o be_v not_o for_o that_o thou_o do_v give_v over_o thyself_o unto_o he_o in_o good_a earnest_n but_o in_o respect_n that_o thou_o do_v hope_v he_o will_v always_o have_v be_v merciful_a unto_o thou_o and_o so_o long_o thou_o can_v well_o find_v in_o thine_o heart_n to_o serve_v he_o but_o now_o that_o thou_o seele_v he_o somewhat_o rough_a thou_o renounce_v his_o service_n whereby_o it_o be_v to_o be_v perceive_v that_o there_o be_v nothing_o else_o but_o hypocrisy_n in_o thou_o thus_o we_o see_v in_o effect_n the_o whole_a ground_n of_o the_o discourse_n that_o eliphas_n make_v here_o but_o true_a it_o be_v that_o we_o mark_v not_o what_o be_v in_o ourselves_o when_o we_o either_o counsel_n other_o man_n or_o comfort_v they_o or_o rebuke_v they_o every_o man_n can_v do_v that_o yea_o even_o the_o most_o idiot_n for_o as_o it_o be_v say_v in_o a_o common_a proverb_n it_o be_v easy_a for_o they_o that_o be_v in_o health_n too_o comsort_v such_o as_o be_v disease_v but_o if_o we_o can_v show_v by_o our_o own_o do_n that_o the_o thing_n which_o we_o speak_v unto_o other_o be_v in_o ourselves_o and_o that_o we_o speak_v it_o from_o the_o heart_n that_o be_v a_o true_a proof_n that_o we_o deal_v not_o deceitful_o we_o shall_v see_v diverse_a that_o be_v as_o eloquent_a and_o more_o eloquent_a than_o need_v and_o which_o can_v babble_v so_o well_o too_o the_o purpose_n as_o you_o will_v wonder_v and_o they_o never_o want_v tongue_n if_o it_o be_v but_o too_o prattle_v but_o if_o it_o happen_v that_o god_n do_v but_o fillip_v they_o with_o his_o finger_n end_n they_o wot_v not_o what_o comfort_n or_o any_o thing_n else_o mean_v what_o be_v too_o be_v do_v then_o when_o we_o speak_v too_o our_o neighbour_n let_v we_o show_v unto_o they_o that_o the_o thing_n which_o we_o speak_v unto_o they_o with_o our_o mouth_n be_v thorough_o ground_v in_o our_o heart_n thus_o we_o see_v how_o we_o ought_v to_o proceed_v yet_o be_v it_o not_o mean_v hereby_o that_o we_o shall_v cease_v to_o comfort_v and_o encourage_v our_o neighbour_n &_o to_o reprove_v one_o another_o for_o they_o that_o pass_v not_o to_o chastise_v such_o as_o do_v amiss_o and_o to_o comfort_v such_o as_o be_v in_o heaviness_n and_o to_o reform_v such_o as_o go_v astray_o show_v themselves_o to_o have_v no_o care_n neither_o of_o god_n nor_o of_o his_o service_n for_o if_o we_o love_v god_n with_o a_o right_a affection_n it_o be_v certain_a that_o as_o much_o as_o in_o usly_v we_o will_v seek_v that_o all_o man_n may_v do_v the_o like_a a_o true_a christian_a will_v not_o content_v himself_o too_o walk_v aright_o but_o he_o will_v do_v his_o best_a too_o draw_v the_o whole_a world_n to_o the_o same_o accord_n and_o therefore_o it_o behove_v we_o to_o put_v that_o thing_n in_o ure_n which_o saint_n paul_n also_o show_v we_o of_o teach_v and_o reform_v one_o another_o but_o as_o i_o say_v we_o must_v do_v it_o from_o our_o heart_n and_o how_o be_v that_o very_o that_o when_o it_o shall_v come_v to_o the_o trial_n we_o may_v show_v in_o very_a deed_n that_o we_o have_v not_o speak_v from_o the_o tooth_n
that_o if_o god_n hand_n be_v against_o we_o all_o the_o succour_n that_o come_v to_o we_o by_o man_n or_o by_o creature_n must_v needs_o be_v vain_a and_o unavailable_a we_o may_v well_o have_v they_o to_o our_o seem_n to_o maintain_v we_o but_o we_o shall_v find_v no_o profit_n in_o they_o all_o shall_v go_v clean_o contrary_a too_o our_o expectation_n moreover_o it_o be_v say_v of_o babylon_n whosoever_o will_v build_v it_o up_o again_o must_v lay_v the_o foundation_n of_o it_o upon_o his_o first_o bear_v that_o be_v too_o say_v all_o they_o that_o will_v resist_v god_n judgement_n shall_v follow_v those_o that_o have_v be_v punish_v afore_o they_o and_o keep_v they_o company_n themselves_o therefore_o let_v we_o bethink_v we_o well_o and_o let_v we_o desire_v to_o be_v strengthen_v by_o the_o hand_n of_o god_n and_o maintain_v in_o our_o state_n by_o the_o same_o for_o without_o that_o we_o must_v needs_o perish_v yea_o though_o all_o the_o world_n be_v on_o our_o side_n as_o i_o have_v say_v already_o and_o here_o you_o see_v also_o why_o it_o be_v tell_v we_o in_o the_o psalm_n that_o man_n may_v well_o take_v upon_o they_o to_o build_v when_o they_o have_v all_o thing_n at_o commandment_n but_o yet_o can_v they_o not_o go_v forward_o with_o it_o for_o god_n will_v make_v all_o to_o go_v backward_o if_o he_o bliss_n they_o not_o and_o no_o doubt_n but_o that_o in_o this_o word_n build_v job_n comprehend_v all_o that_o concern_v man_n state_n as_o if_o he_o have_v say_v that_o it_o belong_v only_o to_o god_n to_o build_v we_o up_o whensoever_o he_o have_v set_v we_o in_o any_o trade_n we_o must_v be_v establish_v in_o the_o same_o by_o his_o power_n and_o when_o he_o list_v too_o throw_v we_o quite_o down_o and_o too_o bring_v we_o utter_o to_o nought_o we_o may_v well_o be_v do_v but_o all_o that_o ever_o man_n can_v do_v for_o we_o shall_v be_v utter_o unavailable_a contrariwise_o if_o god_n be_v on_o our_o side_n we_o may_v despise_v all_o thing_n that_o be_v against_o we_o again_o if_o god_n be_v our_o enemy_n let_v we_o have_v all_o the_o commodity_n that_o can_v be_v and_o they_o shall_v all_o turn_v to_o our_o confusion_n thus_o much_o concern_v this_o point_n it_o be_v say_v immediate_o that_o if_o god_n lock_v up_o a_o man_n no_o body_n can_v let_v he_o out_o as_o if_o job_n shall_v say_v that_o it_o belong_v only_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

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

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
a_o man_n go_v about_o to_o beguile_v we_o by_o wicked_a slight_n we_o will_v beware_v of_o he_o well_o enough_o but_o as_o say_v saint_n paul_n our_o fight_n be_v not_o against_o flesh_n and_o

see_v then_o such_o devilish_a boldness_n in_o man_n that_o they_o will_v enter_v into_o the_o deep_a secret_n of_o god_n and_o they_o will_v turn_v up_o all_o thing_n and_o leave_v he_o nothing_o unremoved_a to_o be_v short_a god_n must_v be_v as_o it_o be_v subject_a unto_o they_o see_v whereto_o we_o be_v now_o come_v for_o this_o cause_n the_o holy_a scripture_n say_v unto_o we_o that_o god_n have_v the_o dark_a cloud_n as_o place_n to_o hide_v himself_o in_o and_o whereto_o say_v it_o so_o it_o be_v to_o mock_v at_o the_o phantasticalness_n that_o be_v in_o we_o for_o will_v we_o purchase_v unto_o god_n will_v we_o comprehend_v all_o his_o secret_n let_v we_o come_v but_o only_o to_o the_o cloud_n yet_o be_v we_o not_o come_v to_o the_o star_n by_o a_o great_a way_n behold_v one_o cloud_n only_o do_v so_o let_v we_o as_o we_o can_v see_v the_o sun_n and_o although_o his_o brightness_n come_v unto_o we_o yet_o know_v we_o not_o in_o what_o place_n he_o be_v when_o the_o sun_n shine_v at_o noon_n day_n if_o it_o be_v a_o close_a and_o a_o rainy_a weather_n we_o can_v mark_v the_o place_n of_o the_o sun_n to_o say_v it_o be_v now_o in_o such_o a_o place_n if_o a_o cloud_n let_v we_o that_o we_o can_v see_v a_o creature_n which_o show_v himself_o daily_o
nevertheless_o god_n do_v general_o show_v that_o it_o be_v against_o all_o reason_n that_o we_o shall_v measure_v he_o by_o our_o span_n as_o the_o proverb_n say_v what_o remain_v then_o we_o must_v

if_o any_o man_n attempt_n to_o doubt_v of_o that_o he_o must_v needs_o come_v to_o shame_n according_a as_o it_o be_v say_v in_o the_o psalm_n lord_n howsoever_o the_o world_n go_v thou_o shall_v be_v find_v righteous_a for_o david_n see_v well_o the_o devilish_a pride_n that_o be_v in_o man_n who_o will_v needs_o be_v always_o reply_v against_o god_n and_o control_a of_o he_o but_o what_o win_v they_o by_o it_o nothing_o but_o that_o god_n must_v maintain_v his_o own_o right_n and_o they_o be_v overwhelm_v with_o their_o malapertness_n thus_o you_o see_v a_o point_n that_o be_v well_o worthy_a to_o be_v bear_v in_o mind_n when_o it_o be_v say_v that_o if_o we_o go_v from_o the_o sun_n rise_v to_o the_o sun_n go_v down_o and_o draw_v about_o from_o north_n to_o south_n when_o we_o have_v hunt_v over_o all_o the_o world_n yet_o shall_v we_o not_o attain_v unto_o god_n hereby_o we_o be_v inform_v that_o god_n determination_n be_v such_o a_o bottomless_a sea_n as_o we_o can_v never_o attain_v to_o they_o and_o that_o the_o rightfulness_n which_o be_v in_o they_o be_v a_o infinite_a thing_n now_o let_v we_o consider_v our_o own_o ability_n and_o mark_v what_o infirmity_n be_v in_o we_o if_o a_o man_n shall_v bestow_v all_o his_o whole_a life_n in_o travel_v yet_o can_v he_o not_o know_v the_o whole_a world_n and_o what_o shall_v we_o know_v of_o god_n when_o we_o have_v attain_v to_o the_o centre_n that_o be_v too_o say_v to_o the_o bottom_n of_o the_o earth_n little_n or_o nothing_o and_o sure_o if_o we_o can_v sty_n up_o above_o the_o cloud_n yet_o shall_v we_o come_v far_o short_a of_o know_v all_o that_o be_v in_o god_n so_o then_o let_v we_o learn_v two_o thing_n brief_o the_o one_o be_v that_o when_o god_n work_v not_o after_o our_o manner_n we_o must_v not_o think_v with_o ourselves_o that_o the_o creature_n be_v able_a to_o do_v this_o or_o that_o or_o that_o man_n have_v be_v wont_a to_o do_v so_o or_o that_o the_o ordinary_a manner_n of_o work_v be_v thus_o and_o thus_o or_o that_o this_o be_v the_o order_n of_o nature_n god_n mighty_a power_n must_v not_o be_v shut_v up_o within_o the_o order_n of_o nature_n nor_o within_o such_o bound_n what_o then_o let_v we_o confess_v that_o his_o judgement_n be_v so_o deep_a a_o sea_n as_o we_o can_v found_v they_o and_o therewithal_o let_v we_o hold_v it_o for_o a_o sure_a principle_n that_o god_n continue_v evermore_o righteous_a notwithstanding_o that_o he_o seem_v too_o deal_v crooked_o and_o overthwart_o and_o although_o we_o find_v fault_n with_o his_o do_n and_o have_v apparent_a surmise_n and_o colour_n so_o to_o do_v yet_o say_v i_o let_v we_o always_o conclude_v thus_o with_o ourselves_o lord_n thou_o be_v righteous_a according_a also_o as_o jeremy_n say_v true_a it_o be_v that_o it_o grieve_v he_o to_o see_v the_o wicked_a have_v their_o full_a scope_n and_o the_o godly_a man_n to_o be_v utter_o tread_v under_o foot_n so_o as_o all_o thing_n be_v out_o of_o order_n and_o might_n overcome_v right_a and_o there_o be_v no_o more_o conscience_n and_o upright_o deal_n among_o man_n jeremy_n lament_v it_o and_o be_v sorry_a for_o it_o again_o he_o see_v the_o wicked_a live_v unpunished_a as_o though_o god_n have_v be_v asleep_a and_o have_v think_v no_o more_o upon_o his_o charge_n thus_o you_o see_v it_o be_v a_o very_a hard_a and_o cumbersome_a temptation_n that_o the_o prophet_n endure_v but_o forasmuch_o as_o he_o know_v that_o fleshly_a wit_n can_v conceive_v god_n wonderful_a judgement_n he_o make_v a_o preface_n before_o he_o enter_v into_o his_o complaint_n and_o moan_n say_v lord_n thou_o be_v rightuons_a and_o thy_o judgement_n be_v rightful_a his_o speak_v after_o that_o manner_n be_v to_o show_v that_o he_o intend_v not_o to_o enter_v into_o disputation_n with_o god_n and_o to_o plead_v with_o he_o as_o with_o his_o fellow_n or_o match_n or_o too_o call_v in_o question_n whether_o god_n work_v by_o reason_n or_o no._n jeremy_n abridge_v himself_o of_o that_o liberty_n and_o cut_v off_o the_o occasion_n of_o that_o which_o he_o may_v have_v conceive_v in_o his_o mind_n therefore_o before_o he_o enter_v into_o his_o matter_n he_o make_v this_o conclusion_n lord_n howsoever_o the_o world_n go_v and_o although_o man_n may_v surmise_v that_o thou_o do_v thing_n without_o reason_n yet_o be_v thou_o righteous_a and_o unblamable_a in_o all_o point_n and_o all_o respect_n even_o so_o must_v we_o do_v and_o not_o say_v with_o job_n it_o be_v impossible_a for_o we_o to_o know_v the_o reason_n of_o god_n work_v that_o be_v very_o true_a howbeit_o it_o be_v but_o faint_o speak_v but_o we_o can_v mount_v so_o high_a nevertheless_o if_o god_n work_v after_o a_o manner_n that_o we_o can_v comprehend_v we_o must_v not_o therefore_o cease_v to_o acknowledge_v he_o to_o be_v righteous_a and_o to_o honour_v he_o and_o to_o humble_v ourselves_o before_o he_o this_o be_v in_o effect_n the_o thing_n that_o we_o have_v to_o remember_v here_o furthermore_o let_v we_o take_v warning_n that_o we_o may_v well_o make_v large_a discourse_n but_o we_o shall_v gain_v nothing_o thereby_o true_a it_o be_v that_o man_n may_v have_v great_a quickness_n in_o their_o wit_n but_o yet_o must_v not_o the_o same_o give_v we_o occasion_n or_o overween_a as_o we_o see_v many_o do_v who_o because_o they_o have_v their_o wit_n well_o sharpen_v think_v themselves_o able_a to_o find_v out_o the_o reason_n of_o all_o thing_n and_o that_o cause_v they_o to_o run_v so_o astray_o that_o in_o the_o end_n they_o be_v dote_v in_o their_o own_o understanding_n that_o be_v to_o say_v god_n punish_v their_o pride_n for_o take_v toomuch_o upon_o they_o therefore_o let_v we_o consider_v well_o that_o when_o we_o have_v trudge_v up_o and_o down_o we_o shall_v be_v never_o a_o whit_n the_o near_a to_o the_o find_v out_o of_o the_o end_n of_o all_o thing_n for_o our_o lord_n will_v show_v we_o that_o our_o wit_n be_v too_o weak_a and_o rude_a to_o attain_v to_o such_o height_n our_o know_v therefore_o must_v be_v but_o in_o part_n and_o it_o must_v suffice_v we_o to_o taste_v in_o some_o certain_a measure_n the_o thing_n that_o be_v for_o our_o welfare_n wait_v for_o the_o latter_a day_n when_o we_o shall_v have_v they_o full_o discover_v unto_o we_o thus_o you_o see_v more_o what_o we_o have_v to_o mark_v in_o this_o strain_v now_o job_n add_v immediate_o according_a as_o he_o know_v my_o way_n so_o will_v he_o try_v i_o and_o i_o shall_v go_v out_o as_o gold_n hereby_o job_n betoken_v that_o god_n have_v a_o great_a

furnace_n insomuch_o that_o there_o be_v not_o so_o little_a a_o piece_n of_o froth_n or_o infirmity_n in_o i_o but_o he_o see_v and_o discern_v it_o and_o therefore_o it_o be_v too_o no_o purpose_n for_o i_o to_o go_v to_o law_n with_o he_o this_o be_v the_o conclusion_n that_o he_o make_v now_o this_o say_n of_o he_o be_v very_o true_a that_o god_n know_v our_o way_n and_o try_v and_o prove_v we_o as_o gold_n in_o the_o furnace_n but_o yet_o notwithstanding_o have_v we_o any_o cause_n to_o complain_v that_o we_o be_v not_o his_o match_n shall_v the_o creature_n check_v after_o such_o a_o sort_n as_o too_o take_v part_n against_o his_o maker_n though_o god_n make_v we_o not_o hail_v fellow_n with_o himself_o ought_v we_o to_o say_v that_o he_o do_v we_o wrong_v or_o injury_n therefore_o whensoever_o it_o come_v to_o our_o mind_n that_o god_n know_v all_o our_o way_n and_o that_o he_o try_v we_o and_o that_o he_o purge_v and_o sift_v out_o all_o the_o sinful_a affection_n and_o superfluous_a thought_n that_o be_v in_o we_o let_v we_o understand_v that_o the_o same_o must_v teach_v we_o lowliness_n and_o fear_n and_o not_o provoke_v we_o too_o make_v any_o complaint_n as_o job_n do_v in_o this_o text_n and_o herewithal_o we_o see_v how_o god_n intend_v to_o bridle_v we_o by_o all_o mean_n for_o our_o own_o welfare_n for_o when_o he_o try_v we_o after_o that_o

so_o misuse_v make_v such_o outcry_n as_o many_o man_n may_v be_v witness_n of_o the_o wrong_n that_o be_v do_v they_o behold_v the_o very_a necessity_n of_o they_o be_v so_o extreme_a as_o it_o

no_o countenance_n that_o he_o be_v mind_v to_o help_v they_o it_o shall_v seem_v that_o their_o cry_n be_v in_o vain_a and_o that_o it_o be_v but_o lose_a time_n for_o man_n too_o resort_v unto_o

let_v we_o learn_v to_o honour_v the_o wisdom_n which_o we_o can_v comprehend_v and_o to_o say_v lord_n it_o be_v true_a that_o our_o flesh_n and_o our_o nature_n provoke_v we_o to_o grudge_v

thou_o know_v to_o be_v profitable_a and_o expedient_a this_o lesson_n be_v well_o worthy_a to_o be_v note_v for_o we_o see_v how_o hasty_a we_o be_v and_o beside_o that_o if_o a_o man_n do_v but_o touch_v we_o with_o his_o finger_n we_o be_v so_o wayward_a as_o there_o be_v no_o call_n upon_o god_n with_o we_o if_o he_o help_v we_o not_o out_o of_o hand_n as_o soon_o as_o we_o have_v but_o cast_v forth_o some_o sigh_n we_o think_v he_o do_v we_o great_a wrong_n see_v then_o that_o there_o be_v such_o heartburning_n in_o we_o and_o that_o our_o passion_n be_v so_o excessive_a we_o have_v so_o much_o more_o need_n to_o mark_v well_o this_o lesson_n where_o it_o be_v say_v that_o man_n cry_v from_o out_o of_o the_o city_n yea_o even_o they_o that_o be_v already_o at_o the_o point_n of_o

that_o be_v to_o say_v that_o be_v know_v of_o then_o let_v we_o reverence_v the_o wonderful_a secret_n of_o god_n sith_o it_o be_v not_o his_o will_n that_o we_o shall_v know_v the_o reason_n why_o

of_o his_o natural_a wit_n assure_v himself_o that_o that_o be_v not_o a_o matter_n for_o man_n to_o purchase_v estimation_n by_o but_o that_o he_o ought_v too_o be_v govern_v by_o the_o spirit_n of_o

not_o always_o visible_a so_o as_o we_o may_v point_n they_o out_o to_o say_v god_n deal_v always_o after_o this_o manner_n so_o then_o when_o so_o ever_o god_n punish_v any_o man_n be_v it_o in_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

hide_v any_o more_o and_o therefore_o let_v we_o tarry_v patient_o for_o that_o day_n furthermore_o if_o god_n scourage_v we_o yea_o even_o in_o such_o wise_a as_o we_o may_v suppose_v that_o he_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
and_o moreover_o also_o discern_v between_o good_a and_o evil_a where_o shall_v we_o find_v so_o beastly_a man_n that_o will_v not_o condemn_v robbery_n murder_n &_o whoredom_n for_o very_a nature_n teach_v we_o so_o to_o do_v again_o all_o man_n have_v some_o law_n and_o form_n of_o common_a weal_n and_o they_o see_v well_o that_o they_o can_v break_v order_n and_o guide_v well_o the_o matter_n that_o pertain_v to_o this_o present_a life_n of_o man_n furthermore_o they_o have_v also_o trade_n and_o handicraft_n as_o one_o be_v a_o baker_n another_o a_o ploughman_n another_o a_o shoemaker_n and_o another_o a_o clothy_a and_o all_o these_o trade_n be_v the_o gift_n of_o god_n and_o they_o be_v common_a as_o well_o to_o the_o unbeliever_n as_o to_o the_o faithful_a who_o god_n have_v

see_v then_o in_o effect_n that_o the_o thing_n which_o we_o have_v too_o remember_v be_v that_o although_o there_o be_v a_o great_a number_n of_o secret_n in_o nature_n and_o that_o the_o thing_n be_v high_a which_o belong_v to_o this_o present_a life_n yet_o have_v god_n give_v man_n ability_n to_o attain_v unto_o they_o as_o for_o example_n to_o speak_v of_o some_o handicraft_n before_o a_o

even_o because_o god_n have_v give_v man_n the_o skill_n again_o what_o be_v the_o gold_n and_o the_o silver_n that_o be_v speak_v of_o here_o behold_v the_o mettle_n be_v mingle_v with_o earth_n it_o have_v not_o so_o much_o as_o colour_n yea_o and_o it_o seem_v to_o be_v utter_o unprofitable_a and_o how_o can_v a_o man_n discern_v it_o how_o can_v he_o fine_a it_o so_o as_o it_o shall_v serve_v his_o turn_n and_o become_v a_o precious_a metal_n and_o a_o mean_a of_o traffic_n between_o man_n and_o man_n according_a as_o we_o see_v both_o gold_n and_o silver_n apply_v too_o that_o use_n how_o may_v that_o be_v do_v again_o as_o touch_v other_o art_n there_o be_v no_o handicraft_n so_o base_a and_o common_a but_o that_o at_o the_o first_o man_n be_v to_o seek_v how_o to_o work_v in_o it_o

that_o i_o mean_v be_v that_o there_o be_v some_o capacity_n in_o man_n to_o comprehend_v natural_a thing_n notwithstanding_o that_o they_o be_v dark_a at_o the_o first_o entrance_n and_o although_o

the_o use_n and_o profit_n that_o it_o bring_v we_o rain_n in_o some_o respect_n may_v be_v hurtful_a as_o unto_o they_o that_o be_v wet_a too_o the_o hard_a skin_n when_o they_o go_v abroad_o in_o

then_o shall_v we_o be_v like_o rock_n he_o will_v rain_v upon_o we_o but_o what_o for_o that_o we_o shall_v have_v no_o disposition_n to_o receive_v the_o rain_n and_o that_o will_v cost_v we_o

that_o we_o ought_v to_o examine_v spirit_n and_o
according_a as_o we_o see_v even_o by_o that_o which_o be_v come_v to_o pass_v let_v we_o mark_v i_o say_v that_o we_o must_v not_o judge_v of_o god_n help_n according_a to_o every_o moment_n of_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

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

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

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

for_o we_o see_v that_o man_n will_v fain_o hide_v their_o own_o filthiness_n in_o what_o plight_n soever_o they_o be_v they_o cease_v not_o to_o like_v well_o of_o then selue_o â–ª_o and_o to_o

and_o that_o even_o after_o we_o have_v offend_v he_o and_o aught_o to_o be_v overwhelm_v by_o his_o hand_n he_o cease_v not_o to_o play_v the_o father_n still_o yea_o even_o upon_o our_o body_n

this_o thing_n be_v unknown_a too_o the_o heathen_a man_n therefore_o let_v we_o remember_v well_o the_o doctrine_n that_o be_v contain_v here_o which_o be_v conformable_a to_o the_o say_n of_o our_o
