not_o so_o soon_o as_o we_o will_v have_v he_o let_v we_o understand_v that_o it_o be_v his_o mind_n to_o buffet_v we_o for_o a_o time_n but_o yet_o let_v we_o assure_v ourselves_o that_o he_o watch_v for_o our_o welfare_n and_o will_v not_o suffer_v we_o to_o be_v utter_o cast_v up_o to_o the_o pleasure_n of_o such_o as_o overshoot_v themselves_o after_o that_o sort_n for_o our_o lord_n have_v we_o in_o his_o hand_n he_o be_v near_o as_o hand_n with_o we_o and_o although_o we_o perceive_v it_o not_o immediate_o yet_o do_v he_o guard_v we_o maintain_v we_o and_o be_v our_o warrant_n so_o then_o we_o may_v bold_o despise_v the_o wicked_a and_o all_o their_o stoutness_n for_o so_o much_o as_o we_o know_v that_o god_n watch_v for_o our_o welfare_n and_o will_v preserve_v we_o from_o their_o hand_n paw_n and_o throat_n lo_o whereunto_o it_o behove_v we_o to_o come_v when_o in_o respect_n of_o man_n we_o know_v none_o other_o shift_n but_o to_o yield_v ourselves_o to_o the_o evil_a and_o to_o confent_v unto_o it_o it_o behove_v we_o to_o behold_v the_o protection_n of_o god_n which_o as_o now_o be_v hide_v from_o we_o in_o respect_n of_o our_o perceive_v how_o be_v it_o that_o we_o have_v so_o good_a and_o certain_a record_n of_o it_o in_o the_o holy_a scripture_n as_o we_o ought_v not_o too_o doubt_v of_o it_o how_o so_o ever_o the_o world_n go_v let_v we_o keep_v ourselves_o from_o purchase_v so_o by_o unawfull_a mean_n for_o in_o so_o do_v we_o bewray_v our_o own_o distrust_n and_o unbelief_n and_o beside_o that_o we_o be_v guilty_a also_o of_o the_o evil_a so_o far_o forth_o as_o be_v in_o we_o because_o weefeede_v it_o therefore_o when_o a_o man_n fall_v too_o flatter_v of_o the_o wicked_a and_o help_v too_o set_v they_o in_o a_o further_a lustiness_n and_o redeem_v himself_o out_o of_o their_o hand_n by_o ransom_n what_o do_v he_o first_o as_o i_o say_v he_o bewray_v that_o he_o have_v no_o trust_n in_o god_n for_o if_o we_o can_v rest_v upon_o god_n promise_n sure_o we_o will_v never_o seek_v crooked_a way_n but_o we_o will_v always_o bethink_v we_o whether_o god_n permit_v that_o thing_n or_o no._n have_v he_o forbid_v i_o it_o will_v we_o say_v then_o must_v i_o not_o wade_v any_o further_a in_o it_o and_o so_o it_o be_v certain_a that_o all_o such_o as_o labour_v to_o win_v wicked_a man_n favour_n by_o bribery_n and_o such_o like_a deal_n be_v very_a infidel_n and_o bewray_v themselves_o well_o enough_o to_o be_v so_o and_o must_v in_o the_o end_n be_v pay_v home_o for_o not_o honour_v god_n as_o they_o ought_v to_o do_v and_o for_o ally_v themselves_o with_o the_o wicked_a by_o nourish_v they_o in_o their_o naughtiness_n for_o it_o be_v all_o one_o as_o if_o they_o have_v conspire_v with_o they_o to_o break_v and_o overthrow_v all_o order_n and_o sure_o they_o have_v do_v as_o much_o as_o lay_v in_o they_o to_o do_v it_o therefore_o as_o i_o have_v say_v already_o let_v we_o learn_v to_o look_v unto_o god_n and_o to_o trust_v in_o he_o and_o then_o shall_v we_o no_o more_o be_v subject_n to_o the_o wretchedness_n whereof_o job_n make_v mention_v here_o which_o be_v not_o to_o know_v what_o our_o life_n be_v for_o such_o as_o defend_v the_o wicked_a after_o that_o fashion_n and_o rest_v not_o upon_o god_n providence_n must_v always_o tremble_v and_o never_o be_v sure_a of_o any_o safety_n or_o rest_n yea_o and_o it_o behoove_v we_o to_o mark_v well_o how_o job_n add_v that_o when_o we_o be_v desirous_a to_o purchase_v wicked_a man_n favour_n by_o present_n or_o any_o other_o inconvenient_a means_n they_o lie_v so_o much_o the_o more_o in_o wait_n for_o we_o be_v it_o not_o see_v that_o they_o be_v faithless_a folk_n and_o sith_o there_o be_v no_o fear_n of_o god_n in_o they_o i_o pray_v you_o how_o can_v they_o be_v faithful_a unto_o man_n nay_o rather_o how_o be_v it_o possible_a that_o god_n shall_v not_o suffer_v they_o to_o use_v treason_n and_o all_o mischevousnesse_n see_v there_o be_v no_o man_n but_o he_o be_v warn_v of_o they_o before_o hand_n then_o if_o a_o man_n cast_v himself_o so_o into_o their_o net_n wilful_o there_o be_v no_o excuse_n for_o he_o all_o this_o be_v apparent_a to_o the_o eye_n man_n see_v that_o the_o wicked_a make_v their_o conspiracy_n together_o and_o yet_o notwithstanding_o that_o none_o of_o they_o trust_v other_o and_o how_o be_v that_o possible_a for_o if_o two_o wicked_a man_n enter_v into_o league_n a_o man_n will_v think_v they_o be_v join_v together_o like_o two_o finger_n of_o one_o hand_n so_o that_o look_v what_o the_o one_o will_v the_o same_o will_v the_o other_o but_o for_o all_o that_o be_v that_o a_o proof_n that_o each_o of_o they_o trust_v other_o no_o it_o be_v certain_a that_o either_o of_o they_o can_v find_v in_o his_o heart_n that_o the_o other_o be_v hang_v so_o as_o he_o himself_o have_v no_o harm_n by_o it_o at_o leastwise_o he_o can_v find_v in_o his_o heart_n that_o he_o be_v a_o hundred_o foot_n within_o the_o ground_n and_o in_o the_o end_n all_o those_o that_o favour_v they_o become_v their_o enemy_n we_o see_v hereby_o that_o god_n govern_v even_o in_o the_o midst_n of_o all_o disorder_n then_o if_o we_o be_v abash_v at_o the_o confusion_n and_o mangle_a of_o thing_n let_v we_o lift_v up_o our_o eye_n aloft_o and_o we_o shall_v see_v that_o god_n govern_v all_o thing_n for_o sure_o he_o suffer_v not_o the_o wicked_a to_o trust_v one_o another_o but_o enforce_v they_o to_o stand_v always_o in_o fear_n yea_o and_o even_o they_o that_o uphold_n they_o in_o their_o naughtiness_n by_o soothe_v of_o they_o and_o be_v full_a of_o hypocrisy_n to_o the_o intent_n to_o faun_n upon_o they_o and_o please_v they_o i_o say_v even_o they_o also_o shall_v always_o quake_v for_o fear_n contrariwise_o if_o we_o can_v put_v our_o trust_n in_o god_n sure_o although_o we_o suffer_v many_o extortion_n at_o wicked_a man_n hand_n and_o our_o lord_n permit_v they_o to_o vex_v and_o trouble_v we_o yet_o shall_v we_o be_v put_v to_o no_o more_o than_o be_v expedient_a for_o we_o to_o endure_v and_o our_o god_n will_v have_v consideration_n to_o bring_v all_o thing_n to_o a_o happy_a and_o profitable_a end_n this_o say_v i_o be_v the_o remedy_n whereunto_o we_o must_v be_v provoke_v to_o resort_v when_o we_o see_v thing_n out_o of_o order_n in_o the_o world_n now_o when_o job_n have_v speak_v so_o he_o add_v that_o they_o be_v lift_v up_o for_o a_o little_a while_n and_o afterwards_o fall_v down_o they_o be_v cut_v off_o as_o the_o top_n of_o a_o ear_n of_o corn_n and_o they_o be_v shut_v up_o with_o other_o he_o show_v brief_o that_o which_o he_o have_v say_v already_o which_o be_v that_o if_o we_o look_v no_o further_o than_o to_o the_o present_a life_n we_o shall_v see_v a_o orderless_a mass_n so_o as_o we_o shall_v not_o discern_v one_o thing_n from_o another_o for_o the_o wicked_a have_v a_o large_a scope_n for_o a_o time_n you_o shall_v see_v they_o upon_o the_o top_n of_o the_o wheel_n as_o they_o say_v and_o by_o and_o by_o they_o come_v tumble_v down_o but_o good_a man_n may_v also_o be_v well_o advance_v and_o yet_o in_o the_o end_n fail_v of_o their_o foot_n what_o for_o that_o we_o see_v that_o by_o experience_n according_a as_o job_n conclude_v say_v if_o it_o be_v not_o so_o who_o will_v make_v i_o a_o liar_n then_o consider_v such_o experience_n let_v we_o learn_v to_o retire_v unto_o god_n for_o if_o we_o look_v but_o upon_o the_o present_a thing_n doubtless_o we_o shall_v not_o only_o be_v as_o a_o waver_a reed_n but_o as_o a_o straw_n and_o as_o empty_a chaff_n that_o be_v cast_v and_o toss_v to_o and_o fro_o with_o the_o wind_n so_o as_o there_o shall_v be_v no_o steadfastness_n in_o we_o therefore_o we_o must_v have_v the_o discretion_n to_o look_v upon_o the_o thing_n that_o be_v disorder_v in_o this_o world_n howbeit_o in_o such_o wise_a as_o god_n providence_n be_v always_o print_v in_o our_o mind_n true_a it_o be_v that_o we_o can_v not_o reach_v unto_o it_o by_o our_o own_o wit_n but_o yet_o must_v we_o look_v towards_o it_o with_o the_o eye_n of_o faith_n so_o as_o god_n word_n may_v be_v as_o a_o look_v glass_n and_o the_o holy_a scripture_n serve_v as_o a_o light_n to_o look_v further_o than_o the_o world_n and_o although_o god_n judgement_n be_v hide_v from_o we_o as_o now_o let_v we_o not_o therefore_o cease_v to_o say_v that_o the_o lord_n be_v righteous_a and_o to_o humble_v ourselves_o under_o he_o and_o always_o to_o have_v such_o a_o eye_n to_o his_o promise_n as_o we_o fail_v not_o to_o call_v upon_o
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 well_o show_v there_o that_o which_o job_n mean_v here_o that_o be_v to_o wit_n that_o such_o as_o know_v the_o thing_n that_o god_n teach_v by_o his_o word_n will_v not_o be_v wed_v to_o these_o small_a and_o fond_a subtlety_n but_o will_v be_v well_o ground_v in_o knowledge_n how_o to_o rule_v their_o life_n &_o to_o walk_v in_o the_o fear_n of_o god_n for_o under_o the_o word_n treasure_n he_o show_v that_o that_o be_v the_o thing_n whereupon_o man_n must_v whole_o settle_v themselves_o as_o upon_o their_o full_a and_o perfect_v felicity_n and_o wherein_o they_o must_v take_v their_o full_a contentation_n and_o rest_n now_o we_o see_v that_o the_o thing_n which_o be_v speak_v here_o be_v very_o true_a that_o be_v to_o wit_n that_o man_n shall_v then_o be_v wise_a and_o skilful_a 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 be_v touch_v already_o that_o be_v to_o wit_n that_o therewithal_o we_o must_v apply_v our_o whole_a study_n and_o set_v our_o whole_a mind_n upon_o the_o thing_n that_o be_v contain_v in_o the_o holy_a scripture_n because_o there_o be_v nothing_o there_o which_o be_v not_o for_o our_o profit_n and_o sure_o it_o be_v unpossible_a to_o fear_n god_n and_o to_o give_v ourselves_o to_o his_o service_n unless_o we_o be_v acquaint_v with_o his_o goodness_n according_a as_o it_o be_v say_v in_o the_o hundred_o and_o thirty_o psalm_n lord_n thou_o be_v good_a and_o there_o be_v mercy_n with_o thou_o too_o the_o end_n that_o man_n shall_v fear_v thou_o we_o see_v then_o that_o man_n can_v not_o be_v ground_v in_o the_o fear_n of_o god_n until_o they_o have_v know_v god_n mercy_n and_o 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 consequent_o rebel_n but_o man_n shall_v never_o conceive_v a_o right_n taste_n of_o his_o goodness_n except_o they_o be_v teach_v it_o by_o the_o scripture_n and_o that_o also_o be_v the_o place_n where_o true_a fear_n be_v for_o we_o must_v not_o think_v that_o under_o this_o word_n fear_n the_o scripture_n mean_v only_o some_o bondage_n that_o man_n shall_v yield_v unto_o god_n as_o though_o they_o be_v enforce_v thereunto_o but_o this_o fear_n here_o import_v that_o we_o must_v be_v full_o mind_v to_o suffer_v ourselves_o to_o be_v govern_v by_o god_n hand_n and_o above_o all_o thing_n 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 belong_v unto_o he_o he_o not_o only_o allege_v his_o majesty_n nor_o only_o say_v that_o he_o be_v master_n and_o lord_n but_o therewithal_o also_o say_v that_o he_o be_v a_o father_n for_o he_o cry_v out_o by_o his_o prophet_n malachi_n if_o i_o be_v your_o master_n where_o be_v your_o fear_n and_o if_o i_o be_v your_o father_n where_o be_v your_o love_n true_a it_o be_v that_o in_o that_o place_n he_o put_v a_o difference_n between_o love_n and_o fear_n but_o afterward_o he_o show_v that_o those_o two_o word_n come_v both_o to_o one_o end_n that_o be_v to_o wit_n that_o forasmuch_o as_o we_o ought_v to_o acknowledge_v he_o both_o as_o a_o father_n and_o a_o master_n we_o ought_v to_o love_v he_o howbeit_o with_o such_o reverence_n as_o in_o all_o our_o life_n we_o desire_v nothing_o ne_o seek_v nothing_o but_o to_o obey_v he_o so_o then_o we_o see_v now_o that_o job_n be_v so_o far_o off_o here_o from_o intend_v to_o reject_v faith_n that_o he_o rather_o lead_v we_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 speak_v of_o wisdom_n pray_v god_n to_o open_v the_o eye_n of_o the_o ephesian_n too_o the_o end_n they_o may_v know_v how_o to_o hope_v for_o the_o salvation_n that_o god_n have_v prepare_v for_o they_o in_o heaven_n by_o the_o resurrection_n of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n and_o afterward_o in_o the_o three_o chapter_n he_o say_v that_o it_o behoove_v we_o to_o know_v the_o kindness_n of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n and_o the_o love_n that_o he_o have_v show_v to_o assure_v we_o of_o our_o salvation_n insomuch_o that_o he_o be_v our_o length_n breadth_n height_n and_o depth_n as_o if_o he_o shall_v say_v we_o may_v well_o strain_v ourselves_o on_o all_o side_n but_o if_o we_o will_v mount_v up_o never_o so_o high_a we_o can_v not_o be_v able_a to_o go_v beyond_o the_o comprehend_v of_o the_o love_n which_o have_v be_v show_v in_o the_o person_n of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n also_o we_o may_v well_o seek_v all_o depth_n but_o yet_o we_o must_v hold_v this_o for_o a_o certainty_n that_o when_o we_o have_v go_v to_o &_o fro_o all_o that_o ever_o it_o behoove_v we_o to_o know_v be_v but_o to_o conceive_v how_o god_n show_v himself_o a_o father_n &_o saviour_n according_a as_o he_o have_v adopt_v we_o in_o the_o person_n of_o his_o son_n mind_v too_o make_v we_o partaker_n of_o his_o goodness_n &_o mercy_n wherein_o our_o welfare_n consist_v now_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 condemn_v the_o fond_a toy_n whereunto_o man_n give_v themselves_o when_o they_o have_v not_o the_o affection_n &_o zeal_n to_o be_v edify_v in_o the_o fear_n of_o god_n furthermore_o we_o have_v to_o gather_v upon_o this_o text_n that_o the_o word_n which_o be_v give_v we_o and_o also_o contain_v in_o the_o holy_a scripture_n be_v so_o excellent_a a_o treasure_n as_o we_o can_v set_v store_n enough_o by_o it_o we_o know_v that_o wisdom_n shall_v be_v esteem_v yea_o even_o of_o the_o most_o ignorant_a and_o very_a idiote_n for_o our_o lord_n have_v give_v we_o this_o insight_n by_o nature_n that_o we_o know_v true_a wisdom_n to_o be_v a_o amiable_a thing_n and_o our_o lord_n deck_v his_o word_n with_o that_o honourable_a title_n and_o tell_v we_o that_o if_o we_o profit_v 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 scripture_n to_o be_v short_a that_o we_o may_v profit_v in_o the_o school_n of_o our_o god_n we_o must_v needs_o have_v that_o or_o else_o we_o show_v ourselves_o to_o reject_v the_o thing_n which_o 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 in_o the_o holy_a scripture_n as_o we_o may_v prefer_v the_o doctrine_n that_o be_v contain_v there_o before_o all_o our_o own_o fancy_n and_o before_o all_o the_o vanity_n of_o the_o world_n that_o carry_v we_o away_o furthermore_o it_o be_v not_o enough_o for_o we_o to_o have_v such_o a_o desire_n to_o profit_v in_o the_o holy_a scripture_n but_o we_o must_v learn_v also_o to_o honour_v it_o 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 for_o the_o common_a people_n and_o that_o it_o will_v be_v but_o a_o dull_n of_o their_o wit_n if_o they_o shall_v set_v their_o mind_n upon_o the_o holy_a scripture_n but_o our_o lord_n pay_v they_o 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

they_o do_v sacrifyze_v unto_o the_o idol_n which_o they_o have_v forge_v and_o set_v up_o in_o their_o own_o brain_n god_n they_o accept_v not_o any_o other_o service_n than_o that_o which_o be_v

that_o when_o he_o be_v angry_a with_o man_n they_o can_v appease_v he_o by_o the_o mean_a aforesaid_a therefore_o it_o behove_v man_n to_o set_v down_o this_o rule_n first_o of_o all_o namely_o that_o the_o serve_v of_o god_n be_v spiritual_a we_o must_v mount_n far_o high_a than_o these_o visible_a shape_n for_o they_o must_v lead_v we_o to_o a_o heavenly_a end_n and_o not_o hold_v we_o down_o here_o in_o the_o world_n without_o lift_v up_o of_o our_o mind_n unto_o heaven_n you_o see_v then_o how_o the_o faithful_a have_v always_o their_o eye_n upon_o god_n when_o they_o make_v

that_o be_v to_o wit_n we_o must_v know_v which_o be_v the_o god_n who_o we_o shall_v worship_v and_o we_o must_v understand_v how_o and_o in_o what_o wise_a it_o become_v we_o to_o press_v unto_o

not_o themselves_o under_o the_o rule_n of_o god_n word_n behold_v wherein_o we_o differ_v from_o they_o which_o know_v not_o how_o there_o be_v but_o one_o god_n who_o we_o ought_v to_o worship_n and_o unto_o who_o we_o must_v come_v by_o mean_n of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n and_o that_o it_o behove_v we_o to_o serve_v he_o according_a to_o his_o word_n when_o we_o know_v this_o we_o may_v well_o say_v that_o the_o sacrifice_n which_o we_o offer_v unto_o god_n be_v acceptable_a unto_o he_o and_o that_o he_o take_v they_o in_o good_a worth_n but_o we_o observe_v also_o that_o

that_o he_o yield_v of_o his_o own_o accord_n nor_o for_o that_o he_o be_v willing_a to_o be_v subject_a unto_o god_n but_o rather_o he_o rouse_v himself_o against_o he_o and_o be_v inflame_v with_o so_o excessive_a rage_n that_o he_o will_v have_v overthrow_v god_n power_n if_o it_o have_v be_v possible_a for_o he_o so_o then_o he_o hold_v still_o his_o natural_a corruption_n that_o be_v to_o

be_v we_o must_v always_o hold_v this_o for_o a_o certainty_n that_o the_o naughtiness_n which_o be_v in_o the_o devil_n proceed_v of_o themselves_o &_o that_o when_o they_o become_v to_o be_v

altogether_o evil_a likewise_o whereas_o sin_n be_v in_o man_n nature_n it_o be_v not_o of_o god_n put_v in_o by_o creation_n but_o by_o reason_n that_o satan_n do_v spread_v his_o naughtiness_n further_o abroad_o at_o such_o time_n as_o man_n be_v beguile_v by_o his_o wiliness_n to_o disappoint_v the_o benefit_n of_o god_n thus_o you_o see_v how_o the_o devil_n become_v accurse_v of_o

scripture_n teach_v we_o yet_o for_o all_o that_o they_o cease_v not_o to_o be_v always_o under_o the_o hand_n of_o god_n and_o therefore_o
place_n i_o will_v not_o come_v there_o and_o why_o then_o be_v not_o we_o careful_a see_v that_o god_n himself_o show_v we_o that_o all_o the_o vice_n in_o the_o world_n be_v as_o bad_a as_o deadly_a plague_n and_o sith_o that_o god_n have_v give_v job_n the_o grace_n to_o withhold_v himself_o so_o from_o evil_n let_v we_o not_o doubt_n but_o he_o will_v assist_v we_o at_o this_o day_n with_o like_a power_n but_o final_o and_o in_o conclusion_n it_o be_v say_v that_o satan_n mean_v as_o it_o be_v to_o have_v spite_v god_n say_v that_o job_n serve_v he_o not_o for_o naught_o for_o so_o much_o as_o he_o have_v bliss_v he_o in_o such_o wise_a even_o to_o that_o day_n that_o he_o prosper_v in_o all_o his_o affair_n so_o then_o say_v satan_n job_n may_v be_v a_o hypocrite_n for_o

more_o than_o all_o the_o affliction_n of_o the_o world_n do_v for_o riches_n be_v willing_o accompany_v with_o pride_n pomp_n contempt_n of_o god_n cruelty_n craftiness_n &_o all_o other_o such_o

to_o the_o necessity_n that_o oppress_v we_o herewithal_o we_o must_v also_o mark_v that_o the_o devil_n be_v always_o at_o our_o elbow_n to_o overthrow_v we_o if_o he_o can_v so_o as_o if_o we_o

bind_v to_o abide_v all_o adversity_n patient_o and_o hereupon_o we_o may_v gather_v a_o good_a and_o profitable_a doctrine_n that_o be_v to_o wit_n that_o as_o oft_o and_o as_o long_o as_o

and_o that_o we_o shall_v have_v no_o more_o too_o what_o purpose_n be_v that_o for_o we_o can_v not_o be_v patient_a as_o have_v be_v say_v already_o we_o must_v be_v well_o assure_v of_o the_o

that_o he_o deal_v rough_o with_o we_o job_n then_o call_v to_o mind_v the_o benefit_n that_o he_o have_v receive_v heretofore_o at_o god_n hand_n in_o such_o wise_a as_o he_o make_v this_o conclusion_n namely_o that_o god_n have_v not_o change_v neither_o his_o purpose_n nor_o his_o nature_n nor_o cease_v to_o continue_v good_a and_o righteous_a notwithstanding_o that_o he_o have_v afflict_v he_o when_o we_o have_v this_o consideration_n with_o we_o we_o see_v wherewith_o to_o assuage_v our_o sorrow_n true_a it_o be_v that_o the_o adversity_n that_o go_v against_o our_o nature_n be_v very_o sharp_a and_o hard_a for_o we_o to_o bear_v like_v as_o medicine_n be_v bitter_a and_o troublesome_a and_o therefore_o must_v be_v somewhat_o sweeten_v that_o they_o may_v be_v the_o

that_o although_o god_n seem_v to_o be_v bend_v against_o we_o yet_o consider_v how_o we_o have_v find_v he_o so_o good_a and_o that_o he_o have_v make_v we_o to_o feel_v his_o love_n after_o so_o many_o sort_n we_o shall_v not_o doubt_v but_o he_o will_v continue_v the_o same_o even_o to_o the_o end_n for_o this_o cause_n it_o be_v say_v that_o in_o all_o these_o thing_n job_n offend_v not_o with_o his_o lip_n and_o we_o must_v not_o understand_v here_o that_o job_n be_v a_o hypocrite_n to_o glorify_v god_n with_o his_o mouth_n and_o yet_o have_v a_o mind_n or_o heart_n to_o the_o

sometime_o although_o we_o conceive_v evil_a imagination_n yet_o we_o hold_v they_o in_o so_o as_o no_o evil_a word_n escape_v we_o as_o how_o a_o man_n be_v tempt_v too_o be_v offend_v with_o god_n and_o many_o imagination_n run_v in_o his_o head_n in_o so_o much_o that_o he_o will_v fain_o lift_v up_o himself_o willing_o against_o god_n yea_o and_o even_o conceive_v blasphemy_n but_o heereuppon_o he_o bridle_v and_o rebuke_v himself_o thus_o wretched_a creature_n what_o mean_v thou_o we_o see_v then_o that_o in_o the_o midst_n of_o our_o temptation_n god_n give_v we_o the_o grace_n to_o resist_v they_o so_o as_o we_o come_v not_o too_o the_o extremity_n to_o blaspheme_v he_o open_o not_o that_o we_o be_v not_o blame_v worthy_a in_o the_o mean_a while_n for_o conceive_v such_o thought_n or_o that_o we_o ought_v not_o too_o condemn_v ourselves_o for_o so_o do_v before_o god_n but_o it_o appear_v well_o that_o the_o holy_a ghost_n have_v wrought_v in_o we_o when_o we_o have_v not_o consent_v too_o such_o temptation_n nor_o have_v any_o like_n of_o they_o and_o a_o man_n may_v well_o take_v this_o sentence_n in_o this_o sense_n namely_o that_o job_n offend_v not_o with_o his_o lip_n that_o be_v to_o say_v that_o he_o come_v not_o too_o extremity_n but_o that_o although_o he_o be_v sore_o provoke_v too_o evil_a yet_o he_o resist_v so_o as_o the_o evil_n overcome_v he_o not_o but_o he_o maintain_v his_o battle_n steadfast_o notwithstanding_o when_o we_o have_v consider_v all_o thing_n thorough_o there_o be_v no_o doubt_n but_o that_o job_n be_v set_v
not_o so_o sound_v a_o perfection_n as_o he_o have_v afore_o and_o yet_o notwithstanding_o that_o although_o his_o adversity_n pinch_v he_o so_o as_o it_o be_v likely_a that_o he_o shall_v have_v faint_v in_o the_o mid_n of_o his_o way_n he_o hold_v on_o his_o course_n still_o with_o still_a purpose_n too_o obey_v god_n howbeit_o that_o in_o the_o mean_a while_n as_o say_v s._n paul_n he_o accomplish_v not_o the_o good_a that_o he_o desire_v paul_n in_o that_o place_n treat_v of_o himself_o and_o confess_v that_o although_o his_o whole_a desire_n be_v to_o give_v himself_o unto_o god_n yet_o notwithstanding_o it_o come_v not_o so_o to_o pass_v but_o he_o be_v hinder_v by_o his_o own_o nature_n which_o be_v overweake_a if_o s._n paul_n acknowledge_v so_o much_o of_o himself_o let_v we_o not_o think_v it_o strange_a that_o the_o like_a shall_v happen_v to_o job_n so_o as_o he_o shall_v be_v desirous_a too_o frame_v himself_o to_o the_o good_a will_n of_o god_n and_o yet_o his_o affection_n shall_v not_o be_v so_o perfect_a in_o all_o point_n but_o that_o he_o must_v be_v fain_o to_o halt_n and_o to_o stoop_v and_o herein_o we_o see_v that_o which_o happen_v too_o our_o father_n jacob_n at_o such_o time_n as_o god_n mean_v too_o cause_v we_o too_o understand_v that_o whensoever_o the_o faithful_a encounter_n against_o temptation_n it_o shall_v not_o be_v without_o carry_v away_o of_o some_o curse_v blow_n that_o shall_v leave_v their_o mark_n behind_o they_o we_o see_v how_o jacob_n wrestle_v with_o the_o angel_n of_o god_n and_o wherefore_o not_o for_o that_o he_o be_v god_n enemy_n but_o because_o the_o lord_n which_o try_v those_o that_o be_v he_o mind_v also_o too_o prove_v his_o own_o child_n as_o we_o have_v see_v in_o the_o first_o chapter_n therefore_o it_o be_v say_v that_o the_o patriarch_n jacob_n strive_v and_o wrestle_v with_o the_o angel_n whereby_o it_o appear_v that_o god_n mean_v too_o exercise_v he_o and_o also_o that_o jacob_n

to_o say_v as_o mighty_a towards_o god_n but_o in_o the_o mean_a while_n go_v he_o away_o with_o the_o victory_n without_o touch_n of_o breast_n no_o but_o he_o have_v his_o thigh_n crush_a in_o

that_o they_o may_v have_v occasion_n to_o know_v their_o own_o infirmity_n till_o they_o groan_v again_o but_o yet_o for_o all_o that_o they_o get_v the_o upper_a hand_n in_o incounter_v and_o god_n

such_o inward_a heaviness_n of_o mind_n as_o they_o shall_v not_o know_v which_o way_n too_o turn_v they_o yea_o and_o so_o far_o overshoot_v themselves_o as_o to_o use_v word_n that_o be_v not_o to_o

this_o thy_o fear_n thy_o trust_n thy_o hope_n and_o the_o uprightness_n of_o thy_o way_n upon_o job_n talk_v which_o we_o treat_v of_o yesterday_o there_o remain_v to_o understand_v that_o when_o we_o be_v in_o prosperity_n we_o can_v not_o hope_v that_o god_n will_v continue_v it_o for_o the_o time_n to_o come_v nor_o let_v we_o be_v in_o rest_n still_o for_o job_n seem_v to_o meene_z that_o the_o faithful_a must_v al-always_a stand_v in_o doubt_n and_o that_o they_o must_v think_v that_o the_o thing_n which_o they_o hold_v with_o the_o one_o hand_n shall_v be_v forthwith_o take_v away_o in_o the_o other_o hereupon_o we_o note_v that_o we_o must_v not_o imagine_v more_o than_o god_n promise_v we_o for_o it_o be_v a_o vain_a and_o fond_a presumption_n when_o man_n behight_n themselves_o that_o thing_n which_o god_n leave_v they_o in_o doubt_n of_o and_o therefore_o god_n punish_v such_o manner_n of_o overween_n when_o we_o imagine_v what_o we_o list_v and_o write_v upon_o it_o that_o it_o shall_v be_v so_o god_n will_v not_o have_v we_o to_o have_v any_o other_o leaningstock_n than_o his_o word_n which_o be_v the_o assure_a truth_n that_o can_v not_o lie_v therefore_o whensoever_o man_n presume_v upon_o themselves_o there_o be_v nothing_o but_o vanity_n and_o lease_n and_o it_o be_v no_o wonder_n though_o they_o be_v disappoint_v of_o their_o purpose_n for_o our_o lord_n have_v good_a reason_n to_o mock_v they_o when_o they_o pass_v measure_n after_o that_o fashion_n and_o so_o must_v we_o hold_v this_o for_o a_o general_a rule_n that_o our_o trust_n must_v be_v settle_v whole_o upon_o god_n promise_n and_o now_o let_v we_o consider_v what_o god_n promise_v he_o say_v that_o if_o he_o have_v think_v upon_o we_o to_o day_n he_o will_v not_o forget_v we_o any_o more_o tomorrow_o but_o we_o shall_v be_v help_v by_o his_o hand_n all_o the_o time_n of_o our_o life_n behold_v what_o his_o promise_n be_v then_o may_v we_o well_o assure_v ourselves_o that_o god_n will_v always_o keep_v we_o and_o that_o by_o mean_n thereof_o we_o shall_v not_o be_v in_o danger_n of_o fall_v into_o decay_n but_o yet_o herewithal_o we_o must_v make_v our_o account_n to_o be_v subject_a to_o many_o inconvenience_n for_o our_o lord_n say_v not_o that_o he_o will_v keep_v we_o shut_v up_o in_o a_o mew_n so_o as_o we_o shall_v see_v no_o adversity_n nor_o be_v acquaint_v with_o any_o trouble_n but_o be_v in_o continual_a joy_n and_o felicity_n he_o promise_v we_o no_o such_o matter_n but_o only_o that_o he_o will_v aid_v and_o succour_v we_o in_o all_o our_o necessity_n wherefore_o it_o behove_v we_o to_o understand_v that_o god_n will_v exercise_v we_o in_o many_o adversity_n and_o that_o we_o be_v subject_a to_o the_o common_a affliction_n of_o this_o present_a life_n and_o that_o in_o the_o mean_a season_n it_o ought_v too_o suffice_v we_o that_o we_o shall_v be_v aid_v by_o he_o and_o that_o we_o shall_v not_o be_v utter_o forsake_v see_v the_o case_n stand_v so_o we_o perceive_v very_o well_o that_o we_o must_v not_o sleep_v when_o we_o be_v in_o prosperity_n as_o though_o this_o state_n of_o we_o be_v everlasting_a so_o as_o nothing_o can_v change_v it_o and_o therefore_o in_o presume_v so_o far_o we_o step_v beyond_o our_o bound_n and_o why_o so_o for_o god_n tell_v we_o that_o we_o may_v peradventure_o suffer_v many_o adversity_n but_o he_o will_v help_v we_o continual_o now_o then_o in_o the_o mean_a while_o we_o shall_v fight_v yea_o &_o be_v assail_v on_o all_o side_n and_o therefore_o those_o that_o pass_v their_o bound_n in_o such_o wise_a shall_v be_v punish_v for_o their_o overhardinesse_n as_o i_o have_v say_v already_o at_o a_o word_n the_o faithful_a may_v ever_o be_v in_o doubt_n and_o yet_o never_o cease_v to_o be_v in_o quiet_a how_o so_o for_o when_o we_o consider_v the_o change_n and_o turmoil_n of_o this_o world_n we_o must_v needs_o be_v afraid_a and_o careful_a and_o every_o of_o we_o must_v prepare_v himself_o to_o receive_v blow_n when_o it_o shall_v please_v god_n to_o smite_v he_o but_o yet_o herewithal_o we_o know_v that_o in_o our_o fall_n we_o can_v not_o light_v otherwise_o than_o upon_o our_o foot_n because_o we_o be_v hold_v up_o by_o the_o hand_n of_o god_n nor_o be_v utter_o oppress_v because_o he_o relieve_v we_o we_o see_v then_o how_o we_o can_v not_o be_v vex_v with_o overgreat_a unquietness_n and_o yet_o we_o may_v be_v sore_o grieve_v in_o our_o heaviness_n not_o to_o withdraw_v ourselves_o from_o god_n and_o to_o make_v no_o account_n of_o call_v upon_o he_o but_o to_o have_v our_o recourse_n unto_o he_o to_o be_v short_a there_o be_v great_a diversity_n between_o the_o carelessness_n whereunto_o we_o be_v incline_v by_o nature_n according_a to_o the_o disposition_n of_o our_o ●leshe_n and_o the_o assuredness_n that_o we_o have_v by_o rest_v ourselves_o upon_o god_n promise_n for_o when_o we_o have_v the_o say_v fleshly_a presumptuousness_n it_o be_v like_o a_o certain_a drunkenness_n which_o make_v we_o blockish_a so_o as_o we_o have_v no_o regard_n of_o god_n nor_o of_o his_o help_n make_v our_o reckon_v that_o all_o shall_v go_v well_o with_o we_o though_o he_o never_o look_v to_o we_o nor_o think_v upon_o we_o but_o if_o we_o rest_v upon_o god_n word_n we_o will_v call_v upon_o he_o and_o we_o will_v look_v about_o we_o on_o all_o side_n and_o consider_v that_o our_o life_n be_v a_o thing_n of_o nothing_o that_o our_o state_n be_v wretched_a that_o death_n menace_v we_o on_o all_o side_n and_o that_o we_o be_v hem_v in_o with_o infinite_a misery_n hereupon_o we_o pray_v unto_o god_n and_o make_v our_o moan_n unto_o he_o and_o yet_o nevertheless_o if_o
every_o whit_n of_o it_o go_v incontinent_o unto_o dust_n &_o we_o be_v consume_v either_o by_o worm_n or_o by_o wind_n that_o be_v too_o say_v we_o be_v dispatch_v as_o soon_o as_o a_o worm_n which_o be_v but_o a_o thing_n of_o nought_o and_o which_o we_o scarce_o esteem_v as_o a_o live_a creature_n &_o yet_o be_v we_o consume_v soon_o than_o it_o thus_o we_o see_v what_o be_v say_v unto_o we_o in_o the_o first_o place_n afterwards_o eliphas_n add_v that_o man_n perish_v and_o be_v consume_v from_o morning_n unto_o evening_n some_o expound_v this_o as_o though_o it_o be_v mean_v that_o man_n perish_v in_o small_a time_n &_o that_o be_v very_o true_a but_o herewithal_o there_o be_v yet_o more_o that_o be_v to_o wit_n that_o we_o pass_v not_o a_o minute_n of_o our_o life_n but_o it_o be_v as_o it_o be_v a_o approach_n unto_o death_n if_o we_o consider_v it_o well_o when_o a_o man_n rise_v in_o the_o morning_n he_o be_v sure_a he_o shall_v not_o step_v forth_o one_o pace_n he_o be_v sure_a he_o shall_v not_o take_v his_o repast_n he_o be_v sure_a he_o shall_v not_o turn_v about_o his_o hand_n but_o he_o shall_v still_o wax_v elder_a and_o elder_a and_o his_o life_n ever_o shorten_v then_o must_v we_o consider_v even_o by_o eye_n sight_n that_o our_o life_n fleet_v &_o slide_v away_o from_o we_o thus_o we_o see_v what_o be_v mean_v by_o be_v consume_v from_o morning_n to_o evening_n and_o it_o be_v say_v afterward_o that_o man_n perish_v for_o ever_o because_o no_o man_n think_v upon_o it_o we_o must_v treat_v of_o these_o two_o point_n that_o we_o may_v profit_v ourselves_o by_o this_o doctrine_n the_o one_o poyntis_n that_o whatsoever_o we_o do_v we_o shall_v always_o have_v death_n before_o our_o eye_n and_o be_v provoke_v to_o think_v upon_o it_o this_o as_o i_o have_v say_v be_v well_o know_v among_o man_n the_o very_a heathen_a have_v skill_n to_o say_v so_o but_o what_o for_o that_o every_o man_n can_v play_v the_o doctor_n in_o teach_v other_o man_n that_o which_o be_v contain_v here_o &_o yet_o in_o the_o mean_a while_n there_o be_v never_o a_o good_a scholar_n of_o we_o all_o in_o this_o behalf_n for_o there_o be_v not_o any_o man_n which_o show_v by_o his_o do_n that_o ever_o he_o know_v what_o it_o be_v to_o be_v consume_v from_o morning_n to_o evening_n that_o be_v to_o wit_n that_o all_o his_o lustiness_n be_v but_o feebleness_n and_o that_o there_o be_v no_o steadfastness_n in_o we_o to_o hold_v ourselves_o in_o one_o continual_a state_n but_o that_o we_o always_o have_v towards_o death_n &_o death_n towards_o we_o so_o as_o we_o must_v needs_o come_v thither_o at_o legnth_n very_o if_o we_o have_v no_o more_o but_o this_o single_a doctrine_n alone_o it_o will_v stand_v we_o in_o no_o stead_n but_o to_o make_v we_o storm_n &_o torment_v ourselves_o like_v as_o when_o the_o paynim_n know_v that_o our_o life_n be_v so_o flightful_a they_o conclude_v thereupon_o that_o it_o be_v best_o never_o to_o be_v bear_v and_o that_o the_o soon_o we_o die_v the_o better_a it_o be_v for_o we_o lo_o how_o the_o paynim_n reject_v the_o grace_n of_o god_n because_o they_o know_v not_o the_o honour_n that_o he_o do_v we_o when_o he_o send_v we_o into_o this_o world_n even_o to_o show_v himself_o a_o father_n towards_o we_o for_o in_o asmuch_o as_o we_o be_v reasonable_a creature_n &_o have_v the_o image_n of_o god_n print_v in_o our_o nature_n we_o have_v a_o record_n that_o he_o hold_v we_o here_o as_o his_o child_n and_o to_o despise_v such_o a_o grace_n and_o to_o say_v it_o have_v be_v better_a for_o we_o never_o to_o have_v be_v create_v be_v it_o not_o apparent_a blasphemy_n so_o than_o it_o be_v not_o enough_o for_o we_o to_o know_v that_o so_o long_o as_o we_o be_v in_o this_o world_n we_o be_v consume_v every_o minute_n of_o a_o hour_n but_o we_o must_v come_v to_o the_o second_o point_n that_o be_v to_o wit_n that_o when_o we_o have_v well_o behild_n how_o brittle_a our_o life_n be_v we_o must_v also_o mark_v how_o we_o be_v repair_v again_o by_o god_n grace_n &_o special_o how_o we_o be_v sustain_v &_o uphold_n by_o the_o same_o according_a also_o as_o these_o two_o point_n be_v match_v together_o in_o the_o hundred_o and_o four_o psalm_n for_o it_o be_v say_v there_o that_o as_o soon_o as_o god_n withdraw_v his_o spirit_n and_o work_v all_o go_v to_o decay_v yea_o but_o the_o prophet_n add_v also_o that_o if_o god_n spread_v forth_o his_o power_n all_o be_v renew_v in_o this_o world_n and_o all_o thing_n take_v their_o liveliness_n of_o he_o we_o see_v then_o what_o we_o have_v to_o mark_v that_o be_v to_o wit_n that_o when_o we_o know_v ourselves_o to_o be_v less_o than_o nothing_o and_o that_o we_o be_v so_o subject_a unto_o death_n as_o we_o must_v run_v thither_o as_o you_o will_v say_v spite_n of_o our_o tooth_n we_o must_v understand_v also_o that_o in_o this_o so_o great_a weakness_n god_n hold_v we_o by_o the_o hand_n so_o as_o we_o be_v uphild_n by_o his_o power_n and_o strengthen_v by_o his_o grate_n behold_v wherein_o we_o have_v to_o rejoice_v but_o the_o chief_a point_n be_v that_o we_o shall_v have_v a_o eye_n to_o the_o benefit_n &_o good_a grace_n which_o god_n have_v give_v we_o above_o the_o order_n of_o nature_n in_o restore_v we_o by_o his_o word_n as_o the_o prophet_n isaiah_n say_v all_o flesh_n be_v but_o as_o grass_n very_o man_n be_v green_a &_o flourish_v for_o a_o while_n but_o he_o wither_v by_o &_o by_o whereas_o the_o word_n of_o the_o lord_n endure_v for_o ever_o yea_o not_o only_o to_o continue_v in_o heaven_n but_o also_o to_o the_o end_n that_o by_o it_o we_o may_v have_v everlasting_a life_n and_o be_v redeem_v out_o of_o the_o universal_a corruption_n of_o this_o earthly_a life_n that_o god_n may_v dwell_v in_o we_o &_o make_v we_o partaker_n of_o his_o everlastingness_n we_o see_v they_o whereto_o we_o must_v come_v to_o profit_v ourselves_o by_o this_o lesson_n as_o we_o shall_v see_v yet_o once_o again_o anon_o furthermore_o forasmuch_o as_o we_o see_v ourselves_o wanze_v away_o so_o fast_o that_o from_o morning_n to_o evening_n we_o go_v continual_o to_o our_o decay_n therefore_o must_v we_o be_v the_o busy_a to_o bestow_v the_o time_n well_o that_o god_n give_v we_o because_o it_o be_v so_o short_a god_n have_v put_v we_o into_o this_o world_n to_o keep_v we_o occupy_v in_o his_o service_n if_o we_o have_v long_a time_n yet_o can_v we_o not_o be_v to_o diligent_a nor_o earnest_a in_o do_v our_o duty_n too_o discharge_v our_o self_n when_o it_o shall_v come_v to_o the_o point_n to_o do_v god_n service_n both_o with_o our_o body_n &_o our_o soul_n but_o forasmuchas_o we_o see_v that_o he_o need_v but_o to_o turn_v his_o hand_n and_o behold_v we_o be_v at_o the_o last_o cast_v ought_v we_o not_o to_o be_v much_o more_o earnest_a to_o run_v according_a also_o as_o the_o scripture_n exhort_v we_o show_v we_o that_o this_o life_n here_o be_v but_o a_o race_n and_o therefore_o we_o may_v not_o go_v loyter_o but_o every_o man_n must_v cheer_n up_o himself_o &_o prick_v and_o spur_v forward_o himself_o thus_o we_o see_v what_o we_o have_v as_o yet_o to_o note_v upon_o this_o sentence_n where_o it_o be_v say_v that_o man_n be_v consume_v away_o from_o morning_n to_o night_n but_o now_o let_v we_o come_v to_o that_o which_o eliphas_n add_v he_o say_v that_o they_o perish_v for_o ever_o because_o no_o man_n think_v upon_o it_o a_o man_n may_v demand_v here_o whether_o we_o shun_v death_n when_o we_o think_v not_o upon_o it_o for_o in_o the_o nine_o and_o forty_o psalm_n it_o be_v say_v that_o the_o wise_a man_n and_o fool_n be_v gather_v all_o into_o one_o herd_n so_o then_o it_o behove_v we_o to_o understand_v that_o all_o mankind_n be_v shut_v up_o under_o this_o necessity_n of_o die_v and_o wherefore_o then_o be_v it_o say_v here_o that_o all_o perish_v for_o ever_o because_o none_o think_v of_o it_o first_o of_o all_o eliphas_n mean_v to_o tea●he_v we_o here_o that_o man_n do_v as_o it_o be_v wax_v beastly_a when_o they_o look_v not_o to_o themselves_o for_o look_v what_o he_o speak_v here_o we_o must_v always_o refer_v it_o to_o the_o present_a case_n he_o make_v it_o not_o his_o general_a case_n to_o treat_v of_o that_o man_n life_n be_v transitory_a without_o go_v any_o further_o but_o he_o intend_v to_o show_v we_o that_o for_o somuch_o as_o we_o be_v poor_a silly_a creature_n creep_v here_o upon_o the_o earth_n we_o can_v attain_v to_o the_o perfection_n of_o angel_n nor_o yet_o come_v near_o it_o so_o than_o whereas_o he_o say_v
desperate_a that_o be_v to_o wit_n not_o even_o then_o when_o god_n forbear_v to_o make_v they_o to_o languish_v but_o it_o behove_v we_o to_o understand_v that_o if_o god_n listen_v to_o prolong_v our_o misery_n it_o be_v enough_o for_o we_o that_o he_o give_v we_o patience_n and_o that_o see_v he_o have_v give_v it_o we_o to_o day_n he_o will_v continue_v it_o to_o morrow_n if_o god_n work_v after_o this_o manner_n it_o be_v well_o the_o adversity_n will_v be_v easy_a to_o be_v bear_v so_o as_o if_o he_o plunge_v we_o over_o head_n and_o ear_n a_o hundred_o thousand_o time_n we_o will_v always_o remit_v ourselves_o unto_o he_o so_o be_v it_o that_o he_o sustain_v we_o by_o his_o grace_n which_o he_o have_v give_v we_o from_o heaven_n make_v we_o to_o feel_v this_o comfort_n of_o the_o holy_a scripture_n in_o our_o heart_n insomuch_o that_o if_o god_n touch_v we_o whither_o he_o fillip_v we_o with_o his_o finger_n or_o strike_v we_o with_o his_o hand_n whether_o he_o give_v

if_o a_o doctrine_n be_v good_a there_o will_v be_v such_o a_o substantialness_n in_o it_o as_o we_o shall_v be_v feed_v with_o it_o and_o we_o shall_v find_v that_o it_o be_v good_a to_o rest_n

their_o own_o vaynegloriousnesse_n like_a as_o we_o see_v that_o in_o all_o the_o papacy_n that_o which_o man_n call_v divinity_n be_v nothing_o else_o but_o as_o a_o blast_n of_o the_o eastern_a

two_o point_n one_o part_n of_o the_o popish_a divinity_n consist_v in_o question_n and_o quarrel_n that_o bring_v no_o fruit_n and_o first_o of_o all_o they_o trouble_v themselves_o about_o they_o all_o the_o day_n of_o their_o life_n and_o can_v find_v any_o resolution_n of_o they_o and_o why_o for_o their_o mind_n be_v to_o seek_v that_o which_o god_n do_v never_o discloze_v yea_o and_o which_o his_o will_n be_v to_o have_v hide_v still_o from_o we_o now_o we_o know_v that_o when_o he_o have_v not_o speak_v he_o will_v have_v our_o mouth_n keep_v shut_v and_o that_o our_o ear_n shall_v not_o itch_v to_o listen_v what_o it_o shall_v be_v but_o that_o we_o shall_v be_v ignorant_a where_o he_o teach_v we_o not_o thus_o you_o see_v that_o our_o true_a wisdom_n be_v not_o to_o

which_o god_n will_v have_v unknown_a unto_o we_o they_o can_v well_o debate_v but_o they_o can_v never_o conclude_v for_o all_o their_o reason_n be_v but_o guess_v but_o put_v the_o case_n it_o be_v

because_o he_o look_v not_o at_o god_n sovereign_a justice_n which_o be_v so_o perfect_v and_o exquisite_a as_o no_o creature_n be_v able_a to_o stand_v with_o it_o no_o not_o even_o the_o angel_n

moreover_o we_o must_v call_v to_o remembrance_n that_o job_n intent_n be_v not_o to_o justify_v himself_o as_o though_o he_o be_v utter_o innocent_a but_o he_o look_v at_o the_o respect_n why_o god_n

mean_v to_o set_v he_o forth_o as_o a_o mirror_n to_o all_o man_n and_o to_o try_v his_o patience_n job_n then_o mean_v not_o to_o declare_v here_o that_o his_o life_n be_v whole_o pure_a and_o that_o he_o have_v never_o do_v amiss_o but_o his_o meaning_n be_v that_o god_n punish_v he_o as_o rigorous_o as_o if_o he_o be_v a_o wicked_a caitiff_n and_o have_v lead_v a_o more_o licentious_a life_n than_o all_o other_o man_n lo_o here_o in_o effect_n what_o we_o have_v to_o bear_v away_o but_o as_o for_o we_o let_v we_o assure_v ourselves_o that_o if_o god_n plague_v we_o it_o be_v for_o our_o sin_n and_o although_o our_o conscience_n witness_v that_o we_o desire_v to_o serve_v and_o honour_v he_o yea_o even_o without_o hypocrisy_n yet_o notwithstanding_o we_o shall_v come_v far_o short_a of_o be_v so_o clear_a as_o we_o ought_v to_o be_v and_o we_o shall_v be_v find_v endanger_v a_o hundred_o thousand_o way_n therefore_o let_v every_o man_n look_v near_o to_o himself_o and_o when_o we_o know_v our_o fault_n best_o let_v we_o be_v sure_a that_o god_n know_v a_o hundred_o time_n more_o by_o we_o than_o we_o ourselves_o do_v for_o if_o we_o know_v some_o one_o fault_n be_v not_o god_n more_o sharp_a sight_v as_o say_v saint_n john_n in_o his_o canonical_a epistle_n so_o then_o let_v we_o learn_v too_o humble_a our_o self_n and_o to_o beseech_v god_n to_o hide_v our_o fault_n for_o it_o behove_v we_o to_o come_v back_o to_o that_o which_o be_v say_v in_o the_o two_o and_o thirty_o psalm_n namely_o bless_a be_v the_o man_n who_o sin_n the_o lord_n cover_v and_o who_o

no_o shift_n but_o hell_n must_v be_v prepare_v for_o we_o furthermore_o let_v we_o desire_v god_n to_o hearken_v to_o our_o cry_n unworthy_a though_o they_o be_v for_o if_o god_n delay_v the_o

nevertheless_o it_o behove_v we_o to_o do_v our_o endeavour_n to_o live_v quiet_o with_o our_o neighbour_n that_o we_o may_v have_v god_n favour_n and_o find_v he_o such_o a_o one_o towards_o we_o as_o we_o desire_v why_o so_o for_o it_o be_v write_v judgement_n without_o mercy_n shall_v he_o have_v that_o have_v be_v merciless_a you_o see_v how_o saint_n james_n tell_v we_o that_o god_n will_v

end_n to_o all_o our_o affliction_n must_v not_o we_o needs_o be_v toto_fw-la unkind_a if_o we_o refuse_v such_o a_o benefit_n and_o privilege_n so_o then_o there_o be_v no_o way_n for_o we_o but_o

that_o we_o shall_v not_o curious_o gad_n astray_o as_o we_o be_v wont_v to_o do_v for_o we_o see_v that_o man_n be_v so_o ticklish_a as_o nothing_o can_v be_v more_o and_o when_o they_o speak_v of_o

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

not_o allege_v one_o thing_n or_o other_o to_o make_v it_o go_v for_o good_a but_o see_v our_o lord_n have_v speak_v it_o we_o must_v hold_v we_o simple_o to_o his_o word_n which_o he_o have_v give_v we_o now_o remain_v to_o mark_v the_o word_n that_o be_v set_v down_o in_o that_o place_n namely_o that_o we_o must_v lay_v up_o god_n doctrine_n as_o a_o treasure_n in_o our_o heart_n for_o unless_o it_o be_v lay_v up_o after_o that_o manner_n it_o will_v never_o take_v lively_a root_n according_a as_o we_o shall_v see_v many_o that_o will_v be_v move_v when_o they_o hear_v god_n speak_v of_o and_o be_v somewhat_o well_o dispose_v howbeit_o that_o disposition_n be_v not_o thorough_o plant_v in_o they_o and_o therefore_o we_o see_v that_o the_o faith_n which_o appear_v in_o they_o for_o a_o time_n vanish_v away_o then_o let_v we_o mark_v well_o that_o we_o have_v never_o profit_v well_o in_o god_n school_n till_o his_o word_n be_v so_o deep_o root_v in_o our_o heart_n that_o be_v too_o say_v till_o we_o have_v receive_v it_o with_o such_o a_o mind_n as_o it_o be_v not_o a_o flightful_a motion_n to_o allow_v or_o like_v well_o of_o the_o thing_n that_o be_v tell_v we_o but_o a_o hearty_a affection_n settle_v upon_o it_o in_o good_a earnest_n and_o that_o be_v the_o cause_n why_o it_o be_v oftentimes_o tell_v we_o that_o the_o service_n of_o god_n be_v inward_a and_o spiritual_a for_o although_o we_o have_v satisfy_v the_o whole_a world_n and_o all_o man_n think_v we_o to_o be_v utter_o faultless_a yet_o may_v god_n just_o refuse_v all_o this_o goodly_a outward_a show_n wherein_o man_n soothe_v we_o if_o the_o heart_n go_v not_o afore_o it_o so_o then_o let_v we_o bear_v this_o say_n in_o mind_n that_o it_o behove_v we_o to_o lay_v up_o god_n word_n and_o how_o not_o to_o bury_v it_o for_o if_o we_o believe_v with_o our_o heart_n unto_o righteousness_n we_o must_v also_o confess_v it_o with_o our_o mouth_n that_o we_o may_v be_v safe_a then_o must_v god_n word_n show_v itself_o for_o if_o we_o do_v not_o so_o man_n may_v think_v that_o it_o be_v not_o in_o we_o but_o yet_o for_o all_o that_o the_o good_a work_v which_o the_o faithful_a do_v must_v first_o proceed_v out_o of_o the_o say_v hearty_a affection_n and_o not_o of_o any_o flightful_a and_o inconstant_a motion_n furthermore_o the_o word_n lie_v up_o will_v be_v well_o enough_o understand_v if_o we_o take_v the_o similitude_n of_o a_o treasure_n and_o apply_v it_o also_o as_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n do_v when_o he_o say_v that_o if_o a_o man_n be_v well_o store_v of_o thing_n he_o may_v fetch_v forth_o whatsoever_o he_o have_v need_n of_o both_o for_o his_o own_o household_n and_o also_o for_o other_o man_n use_n for_o if_o a_o man_n be_v so_o niggardly_o that_o when_o he_o have_v his_o chest_n full_a of_o money_n and_o his_o garner_n and_o cellar_n thorough_o store_v he_o will_v both_o starve_v himself_o and_o not_o relieve_v any_o other_o body_n will_v man_n say_v that_o such_o a_o one_o know_v too_o what_o purpose_n it_o serve_v to_o be_v rich_fw-fr no_o but_o he_o be_v a_o stark_a beast_n therefore_o let_v we_o understand_v that_o our_o hoard_v must_v be_v to_o the_o end_n we_o may_v use_v it_o discrete_o according_a as_o the_o case_n shall_v require_v and_o when_o we_o have_v the_o treasure_n of_o the_o doctrine_n of_o salvation_n lay_v up_o in_o our_o heart_n we_o must_v not_o only_o profit_a ourselves_o by_o it_o but_o also_o edify_v our_o neighbour_n yea_o and_o let_v we_o bear_v in_o mind_n how_o saint_n paul_n say_v that_o the_o mystery_n of_o faith_n must_v be_v keep_v in_o a_o good_a conscience_n thus_o you_o see_v in_o effect_n how_o we_o have_v to_o note_v upon_o the_o say_a text_n that_o if_o we_o will_v be_v learn_v in_o god_n word_n we_o must_v not_o only_o conceive_v some_o opinion_n of_o it_o in_o our_o brain_n but_o we_o must_v lay_v it_o up_o diligent_o in_o our_o heart_n as_o a_o inestimable_a treasure_n now_o let_v we_o come_v to_o that_o which_o job_n add_v he_o say_v that_o if_o god_n be_v mind_v to_o do_v a_o thing_n no_o man_n shall_v turn_v he_o from_o it_o this_o be_v still_o a_o continue_n of_o the_o matter_n that_o he_o have_v in_o hand_n namely_o that_o god_n use_v a_o absolute_a power_n against_o he_o so_o as_o there_o be_v no_o go_v to_o law_n with_o he_o to_o obtain_v his_o right_n but_o i_o have_v tell_v you_o that_o this_o be_v overmuch_o for_o although_o job_n know_v that_o god_n punish_v he_o not_o for_o his_o sin_n yet_o ought_v he_o too_o have_v be_v full_o resolve_v that_o god_n be_v righteous_a and_o unpartial_a in_o all_o his_o do_n but_o he_o surmise_v a_o lawless_a power_n that_o have_v neither_o rule_v nor_o measure_n with_o it_o wherein_o he_o do_v god_n wrong_v nevertheless_o the_o sentence_n be_v true_a if_o it_o be_v apply_v as_o it_o ought_v to_o be_v namely_o that_o god_n be_v always_o at_o one_o point_n or_o in_o one_o mind_n that_o be_v to_o say_v that_o he_o be_v constant_a and_o unvariable_a and_o can_v be_v turn_v one_o way_n or_o other_o according_a as_o we_o see_v that_o even_a balaam_n the_o liar_n be_v enforce_v to_o acknowledge_v that_o god_n be_v not_o like_a man_n who_o change_n their_o mind_n and_o be_v variable_a and_o inconstant_a have_v he_o say_v any_o thing_n say_v balaam_n which_o he_o perform_v not_o so_o this_o doctrine_n of_o itself_o be_v good_a and_o the_o holy_a scripture_n be_v full_a of_o that_o matter_n but_o now_o must_v we_o apply_v it_o to_o our_o instruction_n it_o serve_v to_o two_o purpose_n the_o one_o be_v that_o when_o god_n have_v speak_v a_o thing_n and_o promise_v to_o be_v merciful_a and_o favourable_a to_o we_o and_o to_o succour_v we_o in_o all_o our_o need_n we_o must_v steadfast_o believe_v it_o and_o rest_n upon_o it_o without_o any_o doubt_v whither_o he_o will_v perform_v his_o promise_n or_o no._n why_o for_o his_o truth_n be_v infallible_a likewise_o on_o the_o contrary_a part_n if_o he_o threaten_v we_o we_o must_v tremble_v assure_v ourselves_o that_o it_o be_v not_o for_o we_o to_o dally_v with_o such_o a_o master_n thus_o you_o see_v to_o what_o end_n all_o the_o thing_n tend_v that_o be_v speak_v in_o the_o holy_a scripture_n concern_v god_n constancy_n and_o steadfastness_n in_o execute_v his_o determination_n we_o know_v that_o god_n utter_v his_o mind_n unto_o we_o when_o he_o avouch_v himself_o to_o be_v pitiful_a and_o that_o he_o receive_v we_o too_o mercy_n see_v then_o that_o our_o lord_n do_v so_o call_v we_o unto_o he_o it_o be_v not_o to_o beguile_v we_o and_o too_o foade_v we_o with_o some_o vain_a hope_n and_o therefore_o inasmuch_o as_o we_o have_v such_o assurance_n of_o his_o good_a will_n let_v we_o bold_o stay_v and_o rest_v thereupon_o and_o why_o for_o he_o change_v not_o though_o all_o the_o world_n shall_v make_v suit_n to_o he_o yet_o shall_v it_o not_o cause_v he_o too_o alter_v his_o mind_n and_o by_o that_o mean_v we_o may_v glory_v against_o all_o that_o the_o devil_n can_v devise_v or_o practice_v yea_o and_o although_o we_o see_v the_o whole_a world_n bend_v against_o god_n promise_n yet_o shall_v we_o nevertheless_o be_v always_o at_o rest_n according_a also_o as_o we_o see_v how_o the_o holy_a ghost_n arm_v the_o faithful_a with_o such_o trust_n and_o teach_v they_o too_o defy_v all_o their_o enemy_n goto_n say_v he_o lie_v your_o head_n together_o and_o do_v the_o worst_a you_o can_v yet_o shall_v the_o thing_n that_o god_n have_v promise_v hold_v out_o to_o the_o end_n again_o he_o say_v he_o will_v be_v near_o at_o hand_n too_o we_o and_o that_o when_o the_o devil_n and_o man_n have_v practise_v their_o uttermost_a against_o we_o he_o will_v beat_v down_o all_o their_o defence_n then_o see_v it_o be_v so_o we_o may_v despise_v all_o that_o our_o enemy_n can_v practice_v or_o devise_v and_o why_o for_o in_o the_o end_n they_o can_v withstand_v god_n nor_o let_v he_o too_o perfourine_v the_o thing_n that_o he_o have_v speak_v thus_o you_o see_v in_o what_o wise_a we_o ought_v to_o put_v this_o doctrine_n in_o ure_n concern_v the_o steadfastness_n that_o be_v in_o god_n also_o let_v we_o bear_v in_o mind_n what_o have_v be_v say_v concern_v his_o threaten_n so_o that_o if_o he_o rebuke_v our_o vice_n and_o be_v so_o good_a too_o we_o as_o to_o warn_v we_o of_o they_o let_v we_o not_o stand_v unamendable_a in_o our_o misdo_n but_o let_v every_o of_o we_o humble_v himself_o and_o look_v well_o about_o he_o and_o with_o all_o carefulness_n endeavour_n too_o prevent_v the_o curse_n which_o god_n have_v tell_v we_o of_o for_o to_o that_o
they_o shall_v have_v assemble_v all_o their_o force_n together_o yet_o shall_v they_o not_o be_v to_o strong_a for_o we_o but_o god_n shall_v always_o get_v the_o upper_a hand_n of_o they_o wherefore_o let_v we_o not_o deceive_v ourselves_o when_o we_o see_v ourselves_o well_o accompany_v &_o a_o great_a number_n of_o people_n gather_v about_o we_o and_o why_o for_o we_o may_v all_o be_v confound_v in_o one_o moment_n by_o the_o hand_n and_o power_n of_o god_n again_o although_o he_o alone_o be_v enough_o either_o too_o save_v we_o or_o too_o destroy_v we_o yet_o moreover_o he_o have_v his_o army_n ready_a furnish_v after_o a_o incomprehensible_a manner_n which_o shall_v set_v upon_o we_o whensoever_o he_o think_v good_a therefore_o let_v we_o stand_v in_o fear_n and_o let_v we_o learn_v as_o i_o say_v not_o to_o be_v proud_a when_o we_o see_v the_o world_n hold_v on_o our_o side_n &_o a_o great_a power_n to_o maintain_v we_o for_o all_o that_o gear_n shall_v stand_v we_o

will_v have_v they_o against_o we_o and_o to_o be_v our_o deadly_a enemy_n behold_v god_n use_v such_o goodness_n and_o grace_n towards_o we_o that_o he_o appoint_v his_o angel_n too_o do_v we_o

to_o be_v our_o enemy_n than_o the_o minister_n of_o our_o welfare_n for_o they_o be_v ready_a to_o help_v we_o and_o to_o guide_v we_o so_o we_o be_v member_n of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n and_o yield_v obedience_n unto_o he_o as_o our_o head_n and_o so_o as_o oft_o as_o there_o be_v any_o speak_n of_o god_n let_v we_o learn_v not_o too_o conceive_v any_o dead_a thing_n of_o he_o but_o to_o think_v in_o such_o wise_a of_o his_o glory_n as_o it_o be_v set_v forth_o to_o we_o here_o and_o forasmuch_o as_o we_o be_v very_o dull_a let_v we_o bear_v in_o mind_n that_o god_n have_v his_o army_n and_o a_o infinite_a number_n of_o angel_n ready_a too_o execute_v his_o commandment_n and_o that_o over_o and_o beside_o that_o all_o creature_n obey_v he_o as_o good_a reason_n be_v they_o shall_v whereas_o it_o be_v consequent_o say_v that_o the_o light_n of_o god_n shine_v upon_o all_o man_n it_o be_v expound_v that_o god_n do_v so_o shed_v forth_o his_o benefit_n upon_o all_o as_o man_n may_v perceive_v some_o spark_n of_o his_o goodness_n and_o wisdom_n throughout_o all_o thing_n howbeit_o that_o special_o it_o be_v restrain_v unto_o man_n for_o that_o be_v the_o point_n wherein_o the_o light_n of_o god_n appear_v according_a as_o it_o be_v say_v in_o the_o first_o chapter_n of_o saint_n john_n that_o god_n not_o only_o give_v his_o creature_n their_o be_v at_o the_o first_o beginning_n but_o also_o quicken_v they_o too_o maintain_v they_o in_o their_o state_n even_o by_o the_o power_n of_o his_o word_n and_o as_o touch_v man_n together_o with_o their_o life_n he_o give_v they_o also_o a_o light_n you_o see_v then_o that_o all_o creature_n have_v life_n in_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n who_o be_v the_o everlasting_a word_n of_o god_n but_o we_o have_v a_o more_o noble_a and_o exquisite_a life_n than_o have_v either_o the_o beast_n or_o the_o tree_n or_o the_o fruit_n of_o the_o earth_n why_o so_o for_o we_o have_v understanding_n and_o reason_n so_o then_o the_o light_n of_o god_n shine_v upon_o man_n and_o see_v we_o be_v so_o great_o behold_v and_o bind_v unto_o he_o be_v we_o not_o so_o much_o the_o more_o blame_v worthy_a if_o we_o deface_v that_o light_n yes_o sure_o be_v we_o for_o we_o must_v come_v back_o to_o that_o which_o saint_n paul_n say_v in_o the_o act_n that_o if_o we_o go_v but_o grope_v like_o blind_a folk_n yet_o shall_v god_n glory_v be_v perceive_v why_o he_o dwell_v in_o we_o we_o need_v not_o too_o seek_v far_o for_o he_o it_o be_v in_o he_o that_o we_o have_v our_o life_n move_v power_n and_o be_v thus_o you_o see_v that_o the_o exposition_n of_o this_o sentence_n have_v be_v take_v to_o be_v that_o god_n have_v so_o bind_v we_o unto_o he_o by_o make_v we_o partaker_n of_o his_o light_n as_o we_o be_v toto_fw-la unthankful_a if_o we_o go_v about_o to_o deface_v his_o glory_n and_o yield_v he_o not_o his_o due_n and_o wherefore_o for_o a_o man_n can_v so_o much_o as_o stir_v himself_o but_o he_o

here_o you_o see_v also_o why_o solomon_n in_o the_o text_n that_o we_o allege_v out_o of_o the_o first_o chapter_n of_o his_o proverb_n say_v that_o the_o knowledge_n of_o holy_a thing_n be_v the_o true_a understanding_n after_o he_o have_v speak_v of_o the_o fear_n of_o god_n he_o set_v down_o the_o knowledge_n of_o holy_a thing_n see_v then_o that_o the_o holy_a ghost_n have_v knit_v these_o two_o thing_n together_o in_o unseparable_a bond_n it_o behoove_v we_o also_o to_o knit_v they_o together_o hereby_o he_o mean_v that_o the_o fear_n of_o god_n will_v never_o be_v in_o we_o till_o we_o be_v come_v to_o the_o point_n that_o we_o speak_v of_o which_o be_v that_o we_o know_v god_n mercy_n as_o it_o be_v offer_v we_o in_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n namely_o that_o we_o be_v draw_v unto_o he_o by_o his_o goodness_n where_o through_o he_o allure_v
my_o ease_n and_o rest_n and_o be_v this_o because_o i_o be_o worthy_a of_o it_o no_o but_o my_o god_n know_v i_o to_o be_v so_o weak_a that_o i_o can_v not_o bear_v such_o affliction_n by_o reason_n whereof_o he_o spare_v i_o and_o therefore_o i_o must_v impute_v it_o to_o his_o goodness_n but_o if_o i_o be_v strike_v down_o and_o be_v fain_o to_o endure_v affliction_n i_o must_v not_o therefore_o cease_v to_o call_v still_o upon_o god_n assure_v myself_o that_o it_o be_v for_o my_o profit_n and_o welfare_n and_o when_o i_o do_v but_o hear_v of_o his_o threaten_n i_o must_v thereupon_o prepare_v myself_o to_o bear_v adversity_n to_o the_o end_n that_o when_o it_o shall_v please_v he_o to_o touch_v we_o with_o his_o rodd_n we_o may_v not_o think_v it_o strange_a because_o we_o have_v be_v prepare_v for_o it_o a_o good_a while_n before_o hand_n thus_o you_o see_v now_o what_o job_n meaning_n be_v for_o he_o show_v that_o such_o as_o judge_v by_o the_o present_a state_n of_o thing_n &_o by_o the_o outward_a appearance_n shall_v be_v convince_v by_o experience_n because_o he_o have_v walk_v after_o such_o a_o sort_n as_o he_o be_v unblamable_a and_o every_o man_n do_v rather_o wonder_v at_o he_o than_o condemn_v his_o life_n then_o must_v it_o not_o be_v conclude_v that_o because_o god_n afflict_v he_o so_o therefore_o he_o be_v a_o reprobate_n and_o that_o all_o that_o over_o he_o have_v do_v be_v but_o hypocrisy_n that_o be_v to_o untoward_a a_o deal_n by_o the_o way_n although_o job_n speak_v but_o too_o those_o that_o come_v to_o accuse_v he_o false_o yet_o be_v this_o write_v for_o the_o instruction_n of_o all_o god_n child_n lo_o then_o let_v we_o gather_v that_o which_o i_o have_v say_v already_o of_o this_o text_n namely_o that_o we_o must_v not_o judge_v at_o random_n of_o any_o of_o the_o chastisement_n and_o rod_n wherewith_o god_n strike_v man_n very_o we_o must_v hold_v this_o for_o a_o general_a rule_n in_o all_o affliction_n that_o they_o be_v witness_n of_o god_n justice_n upon_o our_o sin_n for_o if_o we_o be_v utter_o pure_a &_o innocent_a undoubted_o god_n will_v handle_v we_o after_o another_o fashion_n than_o he_o do_v therefore_o whereas_o we_o see_v man_n so_o miserable_a and_o torment_v after_o so_o many_o fashion_n they_o be_v fruit_n of_o their_o sin_n aswell_o several_o as_o in_o common_a but_o yet_o notwithstanding_o we_o must_v not_o measure_v all_o man_n by_o one_o meatyard_n as_o they_o say_v and_o why_o for_o there_o be_v diverse_a cause_n as_o i_o have_v declare_v afore_o why_o god_n send_v affliction_n upon_o the_o world_n see_v then_o that_o god_n have_v diverse_a respect_n we_o must_v not_o wrap_v up_o all_o together_o nor_o make_v all_o to_o pass_v under_o one_o collect_v as_o they_o say_v but_o we_o must_v be_v wise_a in_o this_o behalf_n &_o as_o it_o be_v bridle_v our_o own_o reason_n that_o we_o pass_v not_o our_o measure_n &_o compass_n wherefore_o as_o i_o say_v let_v we_o think_v upon_o every_o man_n life_n and_o if_o that_o those_o be_v afflict_v which_o have_v despise_v god_n &_o his_o word_n &_o lead_v a_o lawless_a life_n give_v themselves_o over_o to_o all_o naughtiness_n let_v we_o assure_v ourselves_o that_o our_o lord_n instruct_v we_o in_o their_o person_n to_o the_o end_n we_o shall_v open_v our_o eye_n to_o see_v that_o our_o fault_n shall_v not_o escape_v clear_a without_o come_v to_o account_v before_o the_o heavenly_a judge_n but_o if_o we_o see_v no_o cause_n why_o our_o lord_n shall_v punish_v this_o man_n or_o that_o but_o rather_o the_o clean_a contrary_n then_o let_v we_o learn_v to_o say_v lord_n thou_o be_v righteous_a howsoever_o the_o world_n go_v true_a it_o be_v that_o we_o be_v dazzle_v in_o this_o behalf_n &_o that_o our_o

find_v in_o their_o heart_n to_o go_v to_o law_n with_o he_o no_o but_o we_o will_v be_v quiet_a and_o patient_a and_o tarry_v thy_o leisure_n till_o thou_o show_v the_o thing_n that_o be_v as_o yet_o hide_v from_o we_o you_o see_v in_o effect_n what_o we_o have_v to_o remember_v in_o this_o text_n but_o herewithal_o let_v we_o mark_v also_o that_o when_o we_o come_v to_o the_o judge_v of_o ourselves_o we_o must_v call_v this_o doctrine_n to_o mind_n to_o the_o intent_n we_o fall_v not_o in_o despair_n although_o god_n press_v we_o and_o we_o feel_v his_o hand_n overharde_v upon_o we_o but_o that_o we_o take_v courage_n too_o call_v upon_o he_o and_o leave_v not_o too_o comfort_v ourselves_o in_o he_o thus_o you_o see_v how_o it_o behoove_v we_o too_o practice_v still_o this_o doctrine_n contrariwise_o in_o time_n of_o prosperity_n let_v we_o not_o be_v so_o sot_v in_o our_o own_o ease_n and_o pleasure_n as_o we_o see_v the_o world_n be_v which_o abuse_v god_n goodness_n in_o such_o wise_n as_o they_o become_v utter_o blind_a except_o god_n constrain_v they_o by_o force_n to_o think_v upon_o their_o sin_n then_o if_o god_n let_v we_o alone_o in_o rest_n we_o have_v as_o it_o be_v a_o spiritual_a drunkenness_n so_o as_o our_o wit_n be_v ravish_v and_o we_o play_v the_o resty_a jade_n let_v we_o keep_v we_o from_o mount_v after_o that_o sort_n into_o pride_n and_o

of_o the_o adversity_n which_o he_o shall_v send_v we_o be_v well_o assure_v that_o he_o will_v pity_v we_o and_o not_o handle_v we_o rigorous_o likewise_o if_o we_o see_v that_o god_n let_v the_o wicked_a run_v at_o rover_n and_o lay_v the_o bridle_n in_o their_o neck_n &_o destroy_v they_o not_o at_o the_o first_o brunt_n let_v we_o not_o think_v they_o make_v the_o better_a market_n for_o that_o neither_o let_v we_o be_v tempt_v to_o envy_v their_o good_a fortune_n as_o it_o be_v say_v in_o the_o seven_o and_o thirtith_o psalm_n but_o let_v we_o exercise_v our_o faith_n in_o this_o case_n tarry_v god_n leisure_n till_o he_o show_v we_o his_o judgement_n which_o be_v hide_v from_o we_o for_o a_o time_n according_a as_o it_o be_v not_o for_o we_o to_o determine_v the_o day_n nor_o the_o hour_n then_o must_v the_o faithful_a hold_v themselves_o at_o a_o stay_n as_o often_o as_o our_o lord_n show_v himself_o favourable_a to_o the_o wicked_a and_o to_o such_o as_o have_v deserve_v to_o be_v quite_o and_o clean_o root_v and_o wipe_v out_o of_o the_o world_n for_o although_o he_o leave_v they_o in_o prosperity_n they_o be_v not_o therefore_o in_o his_o favour_n but_o it_o be_v to_o make_v they_o the_o more_o unexcusable_a and_o needs_o must_v they_o pay_v dear_a for_o their_o abuse_n of_o god_n patience_n in_o that_o wise_a when_o he_o call_v they_o to_o repentance_n by_o handle_v they_o so_o gentle_o lo_o in_o effect_n what_o we_o have_v to_o mark_v of_o this_o doctrine_n and_o now_o let_v we_o come_v to_o the_o particular_a word_n that_o job_n use_v here_o why_o say_v he_o be_o i_o not_o as_o in_o time_n past_o when_o god_n keep_v i_o in_o say_v that_o god_n keep_v he_o job_n mean_v that_o he_o have_v as_o now_o forsake_v he_o not_o that_o he_o be_v settle_v in_o that_o opinion_n but_o for_o that_o he_o have_v a_o eye_n to_o his_o own_o natural_a understanding_n as_o all_o the_o faithful_a do_v diverse_a time_n in_o pray_v unto_o god_n for_o they_o may_v well_o use_v this_o manner_n of_o speech_n to_o say_v lord_n thou_o have_v forsake_v i_o lord_n how_o long_o will_v thou_o forget_v i_o lord_n how_o long_o will_v thou_o turn_v thy_o face_n from_o i_o lord_n how_o long_o will_v it_o be_v ere_o thou_o ease_v i_o of_o my_o misery_n when_o the_o faithful_a speak_v after_o that_o sort_n it_o be_v not_o for_o that_o they_o think_v that_o god_n have_v forsake_v they_o for_o it_o be_v in_o vain_a and_o to_o no_o purpose_n to_o call_v upon_o god_n if_o he_o have_v forget_v we_o what_o shall_v we_o gain_v by_o resort_v unto_o god_n and_o by_o desire_v

complain_v that_o god_n have_v forsake_v they_o meene_z not_o that_o it_o be_v so_o but_o there_o be_v in_o we_o a_o double_a feeling_n &_o conceive_v the_o one_o be_v by_o our_o natural_a wit_n the_o

or_o else_o as_o if_o a_o sick_a man_n shall_v content_v himself_o with_o a_o preparative_n and_o afterward_o die_v upon_o it_o for_o want_v of_o take_v further_o physic_n then_o must_v not_o this_o

every_o man_n can_v well_o enough_o say_v that_o it_o be_v the_o gift_n of_o god_n now_o when_o god_n advance_v a_o man_n in_o such_o wise_n by_o give_v he_o more_o large_o of_o his_o holy_a spirit_n it_o be_v too_o the_o intent_n he_o shall_v purchase_v himself_o estimation_n and_o not_o rather_o for_o
light_n into_o darkness_n although_o they_o that_o god_n have_v ingrave_v such_o a_o insight_n in_o the_o despiser_n of_o his_o majesty_n that_o they_o commend_v all_o thing_n which_o they_o know_v

commandment_n against_o the_o which_o we_o can_v strive_v without_o offend_a god_n deadly_a now_o see_v it_o be_v so_o that_o god_n will_v bind_v the_o faithful_a to_o love_v their_o enemy_n even_o in_o the_o time_n of_o the_o law_n much_o more_o reason_n be_v it_o that_o we_o shall_v have_v the_o say_a rule_n now_o for_o we_o have_v a_o more_o large_a declaration_n of_o it_o by_o the_o holy_a

when_o he_o go_v about_o to_o subdue_v all_o the_o hatred_n which_o we_o have_v conceive_v against_o our_o enemy_n thus_o than_o the_o order_n which_o we_o have_v to_o note_v be_v that_o those_o

we_o be_v glad_a of_o it_o can_v this_o be_v do_v without_o the_o overthrow_n of_o all_o that_o be_v contain_v in_o the_o doctrine_n of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n there_o be_v other_o also_o to_o

have_v allege_v out_o of_o saint_n matthew_n to_o be_v short_a we_o see_v what_o the_o power_n of_o the_o gospel_n be_v when_o we_o receive_v the_o promise_n of_o it_o by_o faith_n namely_o that_o

for_o they_o tie_v the_o forgiveness_n of_o sin_n to_o shrift_n and_o where_o do_v god_n ever_o tell_v man_n that_o it_o behove_v man_n to_o shrive_v they_o of_o all_o their_o secret_n in_o the_o

presume_v to_o make_v a_o law_n and_o to_o shut_v man_n out_o of_o paradyse_n if_o they_o observe_v it_o not_o be_v not_o that_o a_o notorious_a usurp_n of_o god_n power_n beside_o this_o the_o pope_n

when_o the_o pope_n forgive_v sin_n he_o be_v dumb_a he_o bring_v not_o one_o jot_n of_o god_n word_n neither_o have_v he_o any_o thing_n but_o charm_n and_o sorcery_n as_o be_v say_v afore_o moreover_o he_o lay_v tyrannous_a law_n upon_o man_n neck_n to_o overthrow_v the_o mean_a which_o our_o lord_n have_v ordain_v again_o he_o abridge_v god_n himself_o of_o his_o liberty_n and_o there_o be_v no_o let_v in_o he_o to_o disappoint_v god_n that_o he_o shall_v not_o receive_v sinner_n to_o mercy_n you_o see_v then_o that_o the_o popish_a church_n be_v the_o devil_n synagogue_n destitute_a of_o the_o forgiveness_n of_o sin_n and_o consequent_o damn_v so_o long_o as_o it_o hold_v itself_o too_o the_o tradition_n of_o antechrist_n for_o it_o be_v impossible_a that_o it_o shall_v be_v reconcile_v unto_o god_n but_o on_o the_o contrary_a part_n we_o say_v that_o man_n sin_n be_v forgive_v they_o by_o receive_v the_o message_n of_o the_o gospel_n and_o that_o the_o same_o have_v not_o to_o do_v with_o the_o ceremony_n that_o man_n have_v devise_v nor_o with_o the_o law_n which_o they_o have_v invent_v at_o their_o own_o pleasure_n but_o only_o that_o we_o must_v follow_v

the_o commission_n come_v from_o above_o and_o that_o man_n take_v not_o ne_o usurp_v not_o any_o thing_n upon_o they_o of_o their_o own_o brain_n thus_o you_o see_v what_o we_o have_v to_o mark_v upon_o the_o word_n where_o it_o be_v say_v that_o god_n will_v pity_v he_o and_o deliver_v he_o then_o must_v every_o whit_n of_o it_o come_v from_o above_o and_o none_o but_o god_n only_o must_v

of_o they_o no_o but_o the_o chief_a cause_n be_v that_o we_o shall_v behold_v god_n work_n whereby_o he_o call_v we_o to_o he_o and_o wherefore_o be_v our_o ear_n make_v only_o to_o have_v

this_o then_o be_v a_o good_a speak_n &_o allow_v of_o god_n yea_o and_o a_o sacrifice_n of_o good_a savour_n unto_o he_o namely_o when_o we_o confess_v that_o all_o thing_n be_v good_a which_o he_o

be_v say_v here_o what_o know_v thou_o and_o it_o be_v certain_a that_o in_o this_o place_n our_o lord_n mean_v to_o condemn_v all_o man_n wit_n like_v as_o in_o other_o place_n of_o the_o holy_a

as_o we_o presume_v too_o talk_n and_o judge_v of_o matter_n resh_o let_v we_o assure_v ourselves_o that_o the_o holy_a ghost_n set_v himself_o against_o it_o as_o our_o adversary_n party_n &_o show_v that_o there_o be_v nothing_o but_o foolish_a rashness_n in_o we_o and_o why_o for_o we_o have_v no_o skill_n true_a it_o be_v that_o god_n have_v give_v we_o reason_n and_o understanding_n but_o that_o be_v but_o only_o to_o do_v we_o to_o wit_n that_o the_o light_n of_o god_n shine_v in_o our_o darkness_n of_o purpose_n to_o make_v we_o unexcusable_a insomuch_o that_o we_o have_v no_o

be_v for_o we_o and_o here_o you_o see_v why_o in_o the_o psalm_n that_o i_o have_v allege_v it_o be_v say_v that_o in_o the_o temple_n of_o god_n every_o man_n shall_v give_v god_n glory_n for_o after_o that_o the_o prophet_n have_v speak_v of_o this_o mighty_a voice_n of_o god_n which_o make_v the_o mountain_n too_o remove_v the_o rock_n too_o melt_v away_o the_o earth_n too_o quake_v the_o

but_o only_o to_o convince_v they_o utter_o too_o the_o end_n they_o shall_v not_o pretend_v any_o trifle_a excuse_n that_o they_o know_v not_o god_n nor_o his_o majesty_n they_o know_v he_o sufficient_o too_o their_o utter_a condemn_v but_o as_o for_o we_o god_n intent_n be_v too_o draw_v we_o too_o salvation_n when_o he_o speak_v unto_o we_o for_o there_o he_o thunder_v not_o too_o

for_o our_o salvation_n see_v then_o that_o our_o good_a god_n have_v vouchsafe_v to_o stoop_v down_o in_o that_o wise_a unto_o we_o and_o yet_o therewithal_o advance_v himself_o to_o frame_v we_o

thus_o you_o see_v that_o the_o thing_n which_o we_o have_v to_o mark_v in_o the_o first_o strain_v be_v that_o god_n speak_v too_o we_o by_o the_o mouth_n of_o man_n be_v to_o the_o intent_n we_o

it_o be_v not_o enough_o for_o he_o to_o have_v give_v some_o token_n of_o his_o presence_n but_o he_o do_v also_o raise_v as_o it_o be_v a_o vehement_a tempest_n we_o shall_v find_v in_o the_o

himself_o to_o be_v ignorant_a be_v the_o highness_n of_o the_o secret_n whereof_o he_o will_v have_v speak_v god_n make_v he_o to_o feel_v his_o hand_n but_o yet_o do_v he_o not_o conceive_v the_o

wight_n in_o the_o world_n he_o can_v do_v no_o worse_o to_o i_o and_o yet_o notwithstanding_o he_o know_v that_o i_o have_v serve_v he_o uncorrupt_o &_o that_o i_o be_o no_o such_o person_n as_o i_o

correct_v himself_o he_o say_v that_o those_o thing_n be_v to_o wonderful_a for_o he_o therefore_o let_v we_o mark_v well_o that_o when_o we_o come_v unto_o god_n &_o fall_n to_o talk_v of_o his_o work_n we_o ought_v to_o consider_v that_o they_o be_v to_o high_a secret_n for_o our_o weak_a wit_n too_o reach_v unto_o and_o i_o say_v it_o behove_v we_o to_o have_v the_o same_o persuasion_n as_o

what_o a_o range_a be_v that_o therefore_o let_v we_o mark_v well_o that_o job_n tell_v we_o here_o for_o a_o general_a principle_n that_o when_o god_n work_n and_o the_o scan_n how_o all_o thing_n

manner_n of_o speak_v when_o we_o presume_v to_o enter_v so_o into_o disputation_n with_o god_n or_o to_o reply_v against_o his_o do_n let_v we_o keep_v ourselves_o from_o that_o kind_n of_o speech_n for_o it_o be_v better_a that_o our_o tongue_n be_v pluck_v out_o of_o our_o head_n although_o this_o be_v a_o overcommon_a vice_n yet_o be_v it_o a_o detestable_a vice_n and_o such_o a_o one_o as_o be_v not_o in_o any_o wise_n to_o be_v bear_v with_o therefore_o as_o have_v be_v say_v afore_o let_v we_o learn_v to_o keep_v our_o mouth_n shut_v that_o we_o speak_v not_o of_o our_o own_o head_n

not_o still_o feel_v some_o tickle_a lust_n of_o desirousness_n to_o seek_v somewhat_o to_o far_o and_o of_o dispute_v against_o god_n but_o because_o it_o behove_v we_o to_o fight_v against_o it_o &_o to_o beat_v it_o down_o and_o that_o be_v the_o sobriety_n whereunto_o it_o behove_v the_o faithful_a to_o be_v bring_v by_o the_o gospel_n that_o they_o may_v simple_o give_v glory_n unto_o god_n by_o confess_v themselves_o to_o know_v nothing_o then_o must_v all_o god_n child_n practise_v this_o point_n namely_o not_o to_o presume_v to_o speak_v so_o at_o random_n of_o whatsoever_o thing_n they_o think_v good_a but_o there_o be_v another_o kind_n of_o speak_v that_o be_v good_a and_o holy_a which_o they_o must_v follow_v and_o that_o be_v
do_v sometime_o suffer_v such_o thing_n too_o try_v the_o patientness_n of_o such_o as_o be_v he_o we_o see_v the_o example_n that_o be_v report_v to_o we_o in_o the_o holy_a scripture_n david_n protest_v that_o he_o seek_v nothing_o but_o concord_n and_o yet_o notwithstanding_o that_o he_o be_v trouble_v not_o the_o less_o but_o the_o more_o have_v he_o provoke_v his_o enemy_n have_v he_o

we_o must_v come_v back_o to_o that_o which_o saint_n peter_n say_v yea_o even_o allege_v the_o psalm_n who_o so_o say_v he_o be_v desirous_a to_o prosper_v and_o to_o be_v bliss_v of_o god_n and_o to_o lead_v a_o quiet_a life_n let_v he_o seek_v peace_n and_o give_v himself_o to_o well_o do_v lo_o what_o god_n promise_v we_o that_o be_v to_o wit_n a_o ordinary_a blessing_n which_o be_v that_o when_o we_o be_v give_v to_o well_o do_v he_o will_v guide_v we_o and_o not_o suffer_v we_o too_o be_v rack_v out_o of_o measure_n but_o what_o nevertheless_o if_o you_o suffer_v for_o welldoing_a thank_v god_n say_v he_o and_o whereas_o he_o say_v if_o you_o seek_v to_o be_v at_o peace_n with_o every_o man_n you_o shall_v find_v it_o immediate_o he_o add_v that_o there_o shall_v always_o be_v so_o much_o unthankfulness_n in_o the_o world_n as_o the_o wicked_a shall_v deal_v lewd_o with_o those_o that_o have_v seek_v nothing_o but_o their_o welfare_n then_o if_o we_o see_v any_o man_n afflict_v we_o must_v not_o by_o and_o by_o conclude_v that_o he_o be_v so_o deal_v with_o for_o sow_v of_o iniquity_n or_o for_o sow_v of_o trouble_n and_o encumbrance_n for_o we_o know_v not_o what_o the_o cause_n be_v that_o god_n visit_v they_o in_o such_o wise_n true_a it_o be_v that_o if_o we_o shall_v have_v know_v one_o too_o have_v be_v a_o wicked_a person_n then_o be_v god_n judgement_n visible_a and_o notorious_a upon_o he_o if_o a_o man_n have_v be_v a_o despyzer_n of_o god_n or_o such_o a_o one_o as_o have_v lead_v a_o lawless_a life_n to_o the_o offence_n of_o other_o we_o can_v not_o but_o judge_v as_o the_o scripture_n tell_v we_o but_o if_o we_o will_v judge_v at_o the_o first_o dash_n without_o further_a know_v of_o the_o party_n than_o only_o by_o that_o we_o see_v he_o scourge_v and_o thereupon_o say_v he_o be_v curse_v behold_v this_o be_v a_o rash_a and_o overpresumptuous_a judgement_n and_o such_o a_o one_o as_o god_n find_v fault_n withal_o therefore_o we_o must_v have_v a_o stay_n of_o ourselves_o and_o proceed_v with_o such_o mildness_n and_o advisedness_n as_o i_o have_v show_v heretofore_o but_o after_o that_o eliphas_n have_v speak_v so_o he_o add_v that_o such_o manner_n of_o man_n that_o be_v to_o wit_n as_o practise_v deceit_n and_o violence_n to_o oppress_v their_o neighbour_n and_o have_v put_v their_o wicked_a

have_v peel_v and_o poll_v all_o that_o ever_o they_o can_v no_o man_n can_v once_o speak_v against_o they_o because_o they_o have_v wherewith_o to_o curry_v favour_n with_o such_o as_o may_v annoy_v they_o according_a as_o we_o see_v how_o those_o that_o have_v use_v such_o wicked_a practyze_n have_v always_o bribe_n at_o hand_n to_o stop_v their_o mouth_n of_o they_o that_o may_v punish_v they_o for_o as_o much_o therefore_o as_o the_o wicked_a which_o give_v themselves_o to_o such_o misdealing_n hope_v to_o escape_v all_o punishment_n at_o man_n hand_n it_o be_v say_v that_o they_o shall_v

yet_o will_v not_o god_n be_v idle_a in_o heaven_n then_o let_v we_o bear_v in_o mind_n that_o if_o the_o whole_a world_n soothe_v we_o up_o in_o our_o naughtiness_n yet_o shall_v our_o case_n be_v

that_o the_o wicked_a shall_v have_v room_n long_o and_o large_a enough_o to_o sport_v in_o according_a as_o we_o see_v how_o they_o leap_v about_o to_o and_o fro_o and_o therefore_o it_o seem_v not_o

we_o see_v how_o we_o ought_v to_o set_v forth_o this_o lesson_n that_o we_o may_v practice_v it_o too_o our_o profit_n it_o be_v in_o effect_n that_o although_o the_o wicked_a have_v the_o world_n

spite_n of_o their_o tooth_n hereby_o we_o see_v that_o their_o life_n be_v unhappy_a for_o all_o the_o good_n that_o they_o can_v have_v and_o so_o if_o we_o understand_v that_o god_n will_v be_v

the_o force_n of_o he_o then_o in_o effect_n we_o understand_v that_o god_n will_v so_o curse_v the_o wicked_a that_o although_o they_o seem_v strong_a and_o well_o furnish_v of_o all_o that_o belong_v to_o they_o yet_o shall_v not_o that_o keep_v they_o from_o brooze_v and_o break_v and_o that_o we_o may_v fare_v the_o better_a by_o this_o sentence_n we_o have_v to_o mark_v first_o that_o

that_o the_o abundance_n which_o we_o have_v be_v not_o able_a to_o sustain_v we_o what_o then_o nothing_o else_o but_o
the_o grace_n of_o god_n if_o it_o please_v our_o lord_n we_o shall_v be_v feed_v though_o there_o want_v bread_n drink_n &_o meat_n according_a as_o he_o say_v he_o will_v feed_v those_o that_o be_v

shall_v he_o not_o be_v sustenance_v ever_o a_o whit_n the_o more_o for_o it_o to_o be_v short_a god_n show_v once_o in_o the_o manna_n how_o it_o be_v he_o only_o that_o sustain_v we_o by_o his_o

to_o profit_v ourselves_o by_o it_o &_o let_v we_o understand_v that_o we_o have_v neither_o strength_n nor_o sustenance_n but_o by_o the_o spread_a out_o of_o god_n goodness_n upon_o we_o which_o be_v the_o thing_n from_o whence_o we_o draw_v life_n and_o the_o mean_v whereby_o we_o be_v preserve_v and_o maintain_v in_o our_o state_n and_o therefore_o let_v we_o settle_v our_o whole_a trust_n upon_o that_o furthermore_o when_o we_o see_v the_o wicked_a to_o be_v strong_a let_v we_o assure_v ourselves_o that_o it_o shall_v not_o last_v ever_o true_a it_o be_v that_o we_o must_v not_o

let_v we_o mark_v here_o that_o this_o word_n the_o firstborn_a of_o death_n carry_v in_o it_o a_o great_a force_n when_o a_o man_n be_v hold_v as_o it_o be_v upon_o the_o rack_n and_o that_o god_n
