a_o friar_n for_o unto_o this_o it_o may_v true_o be_v compare_v though_o the_o prophet_n speak_v of_o another_o thing_n namely_o of_o the_o incarnation_n of_o our_o lord_n which_o exceed_v all_o other_o wonder_n and_o miracle_n as_o also_o the_o apostle_n saint_n paul_n refer_v the_o same_o word_n unto_o the_o resurrection_n of_o christ_n act_v 13._o v._o 41._o when_o the_o prophet_n say_v a-work_o he_o mean_v not_o by_o it_o some_o common_a or_o ordinary_a thing_n but_o a_o rare_a and_o notable_a matter_n and_o worthy_a to_o be_v remember_v as_o that_o of_o the_o creation_n of_o the_o world_n the_o heaven_n be_v the_o work_n of_o thy_o hand_n and_o again_o he_o rest_v the_o seven_o day_n from_o all_o the_o work_n which_o he_o have_v make_v when_o he_o say_v i_o have_v wrought_v with_o these_o word_n the_o scripture_n be_v wont_a to_o express_v thing_n not_o to_o come_v to_o pass_v casual_o by_o fortune_n or_o accident_n but_o thing_n fall_v out_o by_o the_o determine_a counsel_n will_n providence_n and_o ordinance_n of_o god_n as_o our_o saviour_n say_v the_o work_n that_o i_o do_v shall_v ye●_n do_v also_o and_o great_a work_n than_o these_o joh._n 14._o v._n 12._o

prophet_n who_o for_o the_o certainty_n of_o the_o event_n be_v wont_a to_o predict_v thing_n to_o come_v as_o if_o they_o be_v pass_v already_o for_o as_o the_o philosopher_n say_v thing_n past_a be_v of_o necessity_n thing_n present_a of_o be_v and_o thing_n to_o come_v only_o of_o possibility_n so_o do_v they_o speak_v for_o which_o certainty_n the_o prophet_n esay_n long_o before_o

famous_a memorable_a and_o well_o nigh_o incredible_a thing_n not_o do_v or_o accomplish_v without_o the_o particular_a providence_n and_o disposition_n of_o the_o almighty_a a_o friar_n have_v kill_v a_o king_n not_o a_o paint_a one_o in_o paper_n nor_o picture_v out_o upon_o a_o wall_n but_o the_o french_a king_n in_o the_o middle_n of_o his_o army_n encompass_v round_o about_o with_o his_o guard_n and_o soldier_n which_o true_o be_v such_o a_o act_n and_o do_v in_o such_o a_o manner_n that_o none_o will_v believe_v when_o it_o shall_v be_v tell_v they_o and_o perhaps_o our_o posterity_n after_o we_o will_v account_v and_o esteem_v it_o but_o a_o fable_n that_o the_o king_n be_v dead_a or_o else_o slay_v it_o be_v easy_o to_o be_v believe_v but_o that_o he_o be_v kill_v and_o take_v away_o in_o such_o sort_n be_v hardly_o credible_a even_o as_o we_o present_o assent_v that_o christ_n be_v bear_v of_o a_o woman_n but_o if_o we_o further_o add_v of_o a_o virgin_n woman_n then_o according_a to_o humane_a reason_n we_o can_v assent_v unto_o it_o and_o so_o we_o can_v ready_o believe_v that_o christ_n die_v but_o that_o he_o rise_v from_o the_o dead_a to_o life_n again_o this_o to_o man_n natural_a understanding_n be_v impossible_a and_o therefore_o incredible_a because_o there_o be_v no_o return_n from_o a_o privation_n to_o a_o habit._n that_o one_o be_v awaken_v again_o out_o of_o a_o sleep_n ecstasy_n or_o a_o swoon_n because_o it_o be_v not_o against_o nature_n we_o natural_o believe_v it_o but_o to_o be_v rise_v again_o from_o the_o dead_a it_o seem_v so_o incredible_a a_o thing_n to_o nature_n that_o saint_n paul_n dispute_v with_o the_o athenian_a philosopher_n about_o this_o very_a point_n be_v disgu_v for_o it_o and_o accuse_v to_o be_v a_o setter_n forth_o of_o new_a or_o strange_a god_n and_o some_o as_o s._n luke_n report_v mock_v he_o other_o say_z we_o will_v hear_v thou_o again_o of_o this_o matter_n of_o such_o thing_n therefore_o which_o befall_v not_o according_a to_o the_o law_n of_o nature_n and_o the_o ordinary_a course_n thereof_o speak_v the_o prophet_n viz._n that_o none_o shall_v believe_v it_o when_o it_o shall_v be_v tell_v they_o but_o we_o give_v credit_n unto_o it_o while_o we_o consider_v the_o omnipotency_n of_o god_n and_o by_o submit_v our_o own_o understanding_n to_o the_o obedience_n of_o faith_n and_o the_o command_v of_o our_o saviour_n christ_n and_o by_o these_o mean_n what_o be_v incredible_a before_o by_o nature_n become_v credible_a by_o faith_n we_o therefore_o that_o as_o mere_a man_n can_v believe_v christ_n to_o be_v bear_v of_o a_o virgin_n when_o this_o be_v further_a add_v that_o it_o be_v wrought_v supernatural_o by_o the_o operation_n of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n than_o we_o true_o assent_v to_o it_o and_o faithful_o believe_v it_o so_o likewise_o when_o it_o be_v say_v that_o christ_n be_v rise_v again_o from_o the_o dead_a natural_o we_o believe_v it_o not_o but_o when_o it_o be_v affirm_v that_o this_o be_v do_v by_o the_o power_n of_o the_o divine_a nature_n which_o be_v in_o he_o than_o we_o ready_o and_o without_o any_o kind_n of_o doubt_v believe_v it_o in_o the_o same_o manner_n though_o to_o natural_a reason_n and_o humane_a capacity_n it_o may_v seem_v a_o thing_n incredible_a or_o altogether_o improbable_a that_o such_o a_o mighty_a king_n shall_v be_v slay_v in_o the_o midst_n of_o his_o army_n environ_v round_o with_o his_o guard_n and_o soldier_n by_o a_o poor_a simple_a weak_a religionist_n or_o friar_n yet_o consider_v on_o the_o other_o side_n the_o great_a and_o grievous_a sin_n of_o this_o king_n and_o the_o special_a providence_n of_o the_o almighty_a herein_o and_o by_o what_o a_o strange_a and_o wonderful_a way_n he_o have_v accomplish_v his_o most_o just_a will_n and_o judgement_n against_o he_o than_o we_o full_o and_o most_o firm_o believe_v it_o and_o therefore_o this_o great_a and_o miraculous_a work_n we_o be_v to_o ascribe_v to_o a_o particular_a providence_n of_o god_n only_o not_o as_o those_o that_o erroneous_o refer_v all_o thing_n unto_o some_o ordinary_a cause_n or_o unto_o fortune_n or_o such_o like_a accidentary_a event_n but_o as_o those_o who_o more_o near_o observe_v and_o look_v into_o the_o course_n of_o the_o whole_a matter_n do_v easy_o see_v that_o there_o be_v many_o thing_n in_o terven_a in_o it_o which_o can_v not_o have_v be_v bring_v to_o pass_v and_o dispatch_v without_o the_o special_a help_n of_o god_n and_o true_o the_o state_n of_o king_n and_o kingdom_n and_o all_o other_o such_o rare_a and_o weighty_a affair_n shall_v not_o be_v think_v to_o be_v govern_v of_o god_n rash_o and_o unadvised_o there_o be_v some_o instance_n in_o holy_a writ_n of_o this_o nature_n and_o none_o of_o they_o can_v be_v refer_v unto_o any_o other_o cause_n but_o god_n only_o but_o yet_o there_o be_v none_o wherein_o the_o celestial_a operation_n more_o appear_v than_o in_o this_o whereof_o we_o be_v now_o speak_v we_o read_v in_o the_o first_o book_n of_o macchabee_n c._n 6._o how_o eleazar_n run_v himself_o upon_o a_o certain_a death_n to_o kill_v the_o king_n that_o be_v a_o enemy_n and_o persecutor_n of_o the_o people_n and_o child_n of_o god_n for_o in_o the_o battle_n espy_v a_o elephant_n high_o and_o more_o stately_a than_o the_o rest_n whereon_o it_o be_v like_o the_o king_n ride_v with_o a_o swift_a pace_n cast_v himself_o into_o the_o midst_n of_o his_o enemy_n troop_n here_o and_o there_o make_v his_o way_n by_o force_n he_o come_v to_o the_o beast_n at_o last_o and_o go_v under_o she_o and_o thrust_v his_o sword_n into_o her_o belly_n and_o slay_v she_o who_o fall_v with_o great_a weight_n of_o her_o body_n press_v he_o to_o death_n and_o kill_v he_o out_o of_o hand_n here_o in_o this_o instance_n we_o may_v see_v something_o not_o unlike_a to_o we_o viz._n as_o to_o zeal_n valiantness_n of_o mind_n and_o the_o issue_n of_o the_o enterprise_n but_o in_o the_o rest_n there_o be_v no_o comparison_n to_o be_v make_v eleazar_n be_v a_o soldier_n exercise_v in_o weapon_n and_o train_v up_o in_o war_n set_v in_o battle_n embolden_v with_o

not_o abide_v the_o cut_n of_o a_o vein_n he_o know_v the_o kind_n of_o his_o death_n as_o also_o the_o place_n of_o his_o burial_n namely_o that_o he_o shall_v be_v entomb_v under_o the_o fall_n of_o
