of_o red_a well_o colour_v earth_n to_o a_o lump_n of_o flesh_n it_o be_v a_o wondrous_a conjunction_n but_o there_o be_v a_o more_o supernatural_a conjunction_n of_o man_n when_o all_o of_o we_o

the_o low_a of_o all_o lord_n whether_o do_v thou_o descend_v here_o be_v a_o wonder_n in_o these_o conjunction_n next_o to_o christ_n abasement_n be_v adam_n because_o he_o be_v the_o most_o

to_o be_v man_n the_o bless_a god_n to_o become_v a_o curse_n here_o be_v matter_n of_o wonder_n indeed_o in_o christ_n again_o there_o be_v a_o conjunction_n of_o perfect_a body_n perfect_a soul_n

we_o can_v not_o otherwise_o be_v free_v from_o for_o such_o be_v the_o pride_n of_o man_n that_o he_o be_v man_n will_v exalt_v himself_o to_o be_v like_o god_n god_n become_v man_n he_o become_v a_o servant_n to_o expiate_v our_o pride_n in_o adam_n so_o that_o it_o be_v wondrous_a in_o the_o spring_n of_o it_o there_o be_v no_o such_o love_n as_o christ_n to_o become_v a_o servant_n there_o be_v no_o such_o misery_n as_o we_o be_v in_o out_o of_o which_o we_o be_v deliver_v by_o this_o abasement_n of_o christ_n become_v a_o servant_n so_o it_o be_v wondrous_a in_o that_o regard_n spring_v from_o the_o infinite_a love_n and_o mercy_n of_o god_n creation_n which_o be_v great_a in_o the_o work_n of_o redemption_n and_o reconciliation_n then_o in_o the_o creation_n of_o the_o world_n for_o the_o distance_n between_o nothing_o and_o something_o be_v less_o than_o the_o distance_n between_o sin_n and_o happiness_n for_o nothing_o add_v no_o opposition_n but_o to_o be_v in_o a_o sinful_a

make_v we_o man_n in_o adam_n for_o there_o god_n prevail_v over_o nothing_o but_o here_o his_o mercy_n triumph_v over_o that_o which_o be_v opposite_a to_o god_n over_o sinfullnesse_n and_o cursednesse_n to_o show_v that_o the_o creature_n can_v be_v so_o low_a but_o there_o be_v somewhat_o in_o god_n above_o the_o misery_n of_o the_o creature_n his_o mercy_n shall_v triumph_v over_o the_o base_a estate_n where_o he_o will_v show_v mercy_n therefore_o there_o be_v mercy_n above_o all_o mercy_n and_o love_n above_o all_o love_n in_o that_o christ_n be_v a_o servant_n three_o

of_o a_o christian_a in_o this_o world_n be_v a_o impregnable_a state_n impregnable_a and_o a_o glorious_a condition_n here_o be_v glory_n upon_o glory_n from_o this_o clause_n to_o the_o end_n of_o
