to_o prattle_v of_o they_o wherefore_o let_v we_o learn_v to_o know_v our_o own_o ability_n that_o we_o fling_v not_o ourselves_o astray_o over_o all_o the_o field_n but_o rather_o follow_v always_o the_o right_a way_n for_o the_o do_v hereof_o we_o need_v to_o know_v no_o more_o but_o what_o be_v give_v we_o according_a also_o as_o saint_n paul_n bring_v we_o to_o the_o same_o rule_n namely_o to_o know_v no_o more_o than_o god_n lead_v we_o unto_o so_o long_o as_o he_o reach_v we_o his_o hand_n let_v we_o go_v bold_o but_o when_o he_o lead_v we_o no_o further_o we_o must_v stop_v there_o

under_o the_o compass_n of_o our_o understanding_n and_o will_v have_v he_o too_o reserve_v nothing_o too_o himself_o whither_o go_v we_o then_o be_v â—it_n not_o a_o open_a despyte_n of_o god_n he_o

and_o too_o honour_v his_o wonderful_a and_o incomprehensible_a ordinance_n so_o then_o as_o i_o have_v touch_v already_o whensoever_o god_n show_v we_o the_o reason_n of_o his_o work_n let_v we_o

they_o according_a to_o our_o small_a capacity_n assure_v ourselves_o that_o god_n do_v not_o any_o thing_n without_o reason_n no_o not_o although_o the_o same_o be_v not_o know_v unto_o we_o at_o the_o first_o dash_n for_o god_n do_v not_o always_o utter_v a_o present_a reason_n in_o his_o work_n so_o as_o man_n may_v perceive_v they_o and_o again_o the_o say_a wisdom_n be_v so_o deep_a as_o

this_o shall_v seem_v to_o be_v a_o bymatter_v but_o we_o must_v mark_v that_o when_o we_o be_v put_v in_o mind_n of_o the_o common_a order_n which_o god_n keep_v in_o governiug_v his_o creature_n it_o be_v to_o the_o end_n that_o we_o shall_v apply_v it_o all_o whole_o to_o our_o own_o use_n for_o when_o we_o have_v run_v up_o and_o down_o &_o traverse_v from_o one_o side_n to_o another_o we_o

of_o astrology_n for_o it_o be_v a_o thing_n that_o surmount_v all_o opinion_n of_o man_n to_o see_v how_o they_o can_v spy_v out_o that_o thing_n that_o be_v so_o hide_v true_a it_o be_v that_o

deep_a to_o comprehend_v well_o and_o have_v the_o philosopher_n dispute_v much_o of_o this_o matter_n have_v god_n give_v they_o
we_o because_o we_o have_v understanding_n and_o reason_n because_o we_o discern_v between_o good_a and_o evil_a and_o because_o man_n be_v bear_v to_o have_v some_o order_n and_o common_a society_n among_o themselves_o so_o as_o every_o man_n have_v a_o conscience_n of_o his_o own_o too_o tell_v he_o what_o be_v evil_a and_o what_o be_v good_a you_o see_v then_o how_o god_n have_v grant_v man_n a_o prerogative_n which_o be_v not_o only_o that_o he_o have_v give_v they_o life_n but_o also_o enlighten_v their_o mind_n in_o such_o wise_a as_o they_o judge_v and_o discern_v yea_o and_o take_v hold_v of_o eternal_a life_n then_o if_o we_o consider_v well_o what_o be_v in_o man_n it_o be_v certain_a that_o we_o shall_v wonder_v but_o there_o be_v nothing_o whereat_o we_o shall_v be_v more_o

therefore_o let_v we_o learn_v too_o consider_v well_o what_o god_n have_v give_v we_o and_o we_o shall_v have_v cause_n enough_o to_o glorify_v he_o yea_o and_o we_o shall_v not_o need_v to_o pass_v out_o of_o ourselves_o for_o it_o and_o here_o also_o you_o see_v why_o saint_n paul_n in_o that_o goodly_a sermon_n which_o he_o make_v in_o the_o city_n of_o athens_n say_v that_o man_n need_v not_o to_o go_v far_o to_o learn_v to_o know_v god_n for_o say_v he_o it_o be_v in_o he_o that_o we_o have_v our_o be_v life_n and_o move_v and_o if_o we_o be_v blind_a let_v we_o but_o fall_v to_o grope_v

be_v that_o we_o must_v regard_v our_o neighbour_n also_o both_o too_o edify_v they_o and_o to_o receive_v comfort_n at_o their_o hand_n but_o in_o the_o mean_a while_o we_o must_v begin_v at_o this_o

you_o see_v the_o good_a that_o we_o have_v to_o gather_v out_o of_o these_o word_n of_o job_n and_o how_o they_o be_v profitable_a for_o our_o instruction_n but_o there_o be_v also_o evil_a in_o

must_v not_o be_v long_o and_o beside_o that_o the_o conclusion_n of_o they_o must_v always_o be_v to_o glorify_v he_o as_o how_o we_o see_v that_o the_o prophet_n find_v fault_n with_o the_o

after_o this_o sort_n will_v thou_o never_o set_v they_o in_o order_n thus_o you_o see_v one_o kind_n of_o dispute_v or_o reason_v with_o god_n yea_o but_o the_o prophet_n &_o holy_a man_n rest_v

in_o such_o wise_n as_o thy_o name_n may_v be_v praise_v until_o such_o time_n as_o all_o be_v set_v in_o order_n again_o we_o will_v as_o it_o be_v shrink_v down_o our_o head_n to_o the_o ground_n

if_o we_o know_v ourselves_o to_o have_v fulfil_v god_n law_n which_o be_v unpossible_a but_o i_o admit_v it_o be_v so_o i_o say_v when_o a_o man_n try_v his_o work_n thorough_o if_o he_o find_v

when_o they_o know_v not_o whether_o god_n do_v love_v they_o or_o no._n and_o why_o for_o they_o must_v needs_o be_v afraid_a and_o the_o same_o fearfulness_n must_v needs_o cause_v and_o engender_v

upon_o in_o effect_n job_n mean_v be_v â–ª_o that_o god_n judgement_n press_v he_o too_o excessive_o howbeit_o he_o speak_v as_o a_o man_n not_o well_o at_o ease_n in_o his_o mind_n for_o it_o be_v certain_a that_o god_n be_v always_o slow_a to_o wrath_n as_o he_o himself_o tell_v we_o and_o we_o ourselves_o see_v which_o of_o we_o perceive_v not_o that_o god_n use_v great_a and_o long_a sufferance_n towards_o we_o when_o we_o have_v offend_v he_o for_o if_o he_o be_v hasty_a to_o punish_v we_o what_o shall_v become_v of_o we_o so_o then_o we_o see_v that_o god_n do_v well_o enough_o keep_v our_o sin_n that_o be_v to_o say_v put_v they_o up_o and_o not_o punish_v they_o so_o rigorous_o as_o we_o have_v deserve_v wherefore_o then_o be_v it_o that_o job_n complain_v so_o it_o be_v because_o he_o feel_v himself_o shut_v up_o in_o such_o anguish_n as_o he_o be_v able_a to_o endure_v no_o more_o he_o look_v not_o right_o unto_o god_n do_v neither_o be_v he_o able_a to_o judge_v aright_o in_o such_o trouble_n but_o he_o complain_v according_a too_o his_o grief_n hereby_o we_o see_v that_o when_o we_o be_v so_o heady_a in_o our_o affection_n we_o can_v judge_v of_o god_n work_n with_o a_o settle_a mind_n therefore_o it_o be_v no_o marvel_n though_o at_o most_o time_n we_o glorify_v not_o god_n as_o be_v requisite_a and_o as_o we_o ought_v to_o do_v and_o why_o for_o our_o passion_n do_v so_o carry_v we_o away_o that_o
with_o great_a power_n to_o overcome_v silly_a creature_n that_o be_v less_o than_o nothing_o therefore_o if_o he_o use_v great_a violence_n as_o though_o he_o will_v thunder_v upon_o the_o mountain_n or_o as_o though_o he_o mean_v to_o overturn_v the_o rock_n and_o too_o clive_z they_o asunder_o and_o too_o scatter_v the_o stone_n there_o be_v no_o reason_n in_o so_o do_v thus_o you_o see_v what_o job_n mean_v to_o say_v but_o we_o must_v always_o remember_v that_o job_n speak_v not_o as_o a_o man_n in_o his_o right_a wit_n nor_o as_o a_o man_n that_o consider_v thing_n as_o he_o ought_v to_o do_v that_o he_o may_v mind_v they_o with_o reason_n but_o fling_v himself_o out_o of_o his_o bound_n against_o god_n and_o why_o for_o he_o show_v after_o what_o manner_n he_o have_v be_v toss_v and_o shake_v not_o that_o he_o resist_v not_o the_o temptation_n as_o i_o have_v say_v afore_o but_o because_o he_o feel_v so_o vehement_a temptation_n in_o himself_o by_o reason_n of_o his_o

trouble_v if_o we_o look_v upon_o other_o and_o the_o same_o be_v a_o augment_v of_o our_o own_o misery_n so_o much_o the_o more_o than_o must_v we_o bridle_v our_o affection_n &_o therewithal_o resort_v unto_o god_n that_o it_o may_v please_v he_o to_o restrain_v our_o lust_n and_o not_o suffer_v we_o at_o any_o time_n to_o overshoot_v ourselves_o and_o moreover_o that_o when_o he_o intend_v

that_o man_n be_v miserable_a and_o have_v such_o store_n of_o misery_n as_o can_v well_o be_v express_v he_o mean_v to_o conclude_v thereby_o that_o god_n ought_v not_o to_o pursue_v man_n so_o

that_o those_o who_o god_n have_v leave_v at_o that_o point_n shall_v ever_o return_v to_o the_o way_n of_o salvation_n and_o therefore_o let_v we_o beware_v that_o we_o hold_v ourselves_o strait_o

common_a in_o the_o holy_a scripture_n as_o any_o can_v be_v because_o it_o be_v hard_o to_o abate_v the_o pride_n which_o be_v natural_o root_v in_o all_o man_n for_o not_o only_o every_o one_o of_o we_o will_v take_v upon_o he_o to_o be_v wise_a than_o his_o fellow_n but_o also_o we_o can_v find_v in_o our_o heart_n to_o acknowledge_v our_o own_o slenderness_n to_o humble_v ourselves_o even_o when_o we_o come_v before_o god_n therefore_o we_o have_v need_v to_o be_v bring_v low_a and_o to_o be_v warn_v as_o the_o scripture_n do_v it_o that_o we_o must_v not_o go_v about_o to_o comprehend_v the_o purpose_n of_o god_n for_o that_o be_v too_o high_a and_o to_o profound_a a_o thing_n for_o we_o what_o remain_v then_o to_o honour_v it_o acknowledge_v our_o own_o rawness_n and_o weakness_n as_o i_o say_v afore_o but_o by_o the_o way_n we_o must_v come_v to_o that_o which_o saint_n paul_n say_v in_o the_o first_o to_o the_o corinthian_n that_o be_v to_o wit_n that_o our_o saviour_n have_v give_v we_o of_o his_o own_o spirit_n whereby_o we_o know_v and_o comprehend_v that_o which_o be_v above_o all_o our_o capacity_n then_o although_o we_o be_v not_o of_o counsel_n with_o god_n yet_o have_v he_o show_v we_o the_o favour_n and_o honour_n to_o disclose_v unto_o we_o that_o which_o be_v unknown_a and_o hide_a from_o we_o how_o be_v that_o there_o be_v none_o that_o know_v what_o be_v in_o man_n but_o the_o spirit_n which_o dwell_v in_o he_o say_v s._n paul_n and_o the_o spirit_n that_o dwell_v in_o god_n be_v give_v unto_o we_o thus_o you_o see_v how_o we_o be_v make_v partaker_n of_o the_o thing_n that_o be_v utter_o separate_v from_o we_o and_o whereunto_o we_o can_v by_o any_o mean_n approach_v mark_v here_o a_o singular_a grace_n which_o we_o ought_v to_o make_v

and_o let_v they_o play_v the_o drunken_a sot_n and_o yet_o shall_v not_o god_o leave_v his_o look_v down_o from_o heaven_n and_o what_o shall_v he_o find_v here_o stinch_v and_o lothlinesse_n we_o be_v loathsome_a to_o god_n and_o yet_o in_o the_o mean_a while_o we_o think_v ourselves_o to_o have_v marvelous_a stuff_n in_o we_o but_o what_o gain_n we_o by_o it_o so_o then_o as_o oft_o as_o we_o be_v tempt_v to_o pride_n and_o stateliness_n to_o think_v we_o have_v any_o appearance_n of_o virtue_n in_o we_o let_v it_o come_v to_o our_o mind_n to_o summon_v ourselves_o before_o god_n and_o let_v we_o bethink_v we_o of_o this_o dreadful_a say_n that_o when_o god_n have_v look_v down_o and_o when_o he_o have_v examine_v man_n thorough_o there_o be_v not_o one_o not_o even_o one_o but_o he_o be_v infect_v and_o stink_a before_o he_o and_o lothly_a in_o his_o sight_n thus_o than_o you_o see_v how_o this_o sentence_n be_v to_o be_v understand_v and_o whereas_o it_o be_v say_v that_o we_o drink_v iniquity_n as_o it_o be_v water_n it_o serve_v yet_o better_a to_o express_v that_o all_o our_o whole_a life_n be_v give_v to_o evil_a and_o that_o as_o fish_n feed_v upon_o the_o water_n so_o man_n do_v nothing_o else_o but_o feed_v upon_o sin_n very_o we_o ought_v not_o to_o blame_v god_n for_o the_o evil_a that_o be_v in_o we_o for_o adam_n be_v not_o create_v in_o the_o

the_o excellent_a of_o all_o creature_n be_v not_o mar_v after_o that_o fashion_n till_o he_o have_v withdraw_v himself_o from_o god_n but_o when_o he_o have_v once_o separate_v himself_o from_o the_o fountain_n of_o righteousness_n what_o can_v remain_v unto_o he_o but_o naughtiness_n and_o corruption_n thus_o we_o see_v from_o whence_o all_o our_o naughtiness_n proceed_v and_o that_o we_o ought_v not_o to_o blame_v god_n for_o the_o vice_n whereunto_o we_o be_v subject_a and_o under_o which_o we_o be_v hold_v prisoner_n according_a to_o the_o scripture_n which_o say_v that_o we_o be_v sell_v under_o sin_n and_o become_v the_o bondslave_n of_o satan_n we_o must_v not_o blame_v god_n for_o this_o but_o we_o must_v learn_v to_o know_v that_o it_o be_v the_o heritage_n which_o we_o have_v from_o our_o father_n adam_n and_o therefore_o we_o must_v take_v the_o whole_a blame_n to_o ourselves_o before_o god_n lo_o in_o what_o wise_a we_o must_v understand_v this_o corruption_n and_o bondage_n of_o sin_n that_o be_v speak_v of_o here_o not_o to_o make_v it_o serve_v for_o a_o excuse_n to_o say_v alas_o what_o can_v we_o do_v withal_o as_o we_o see_v those_o do_v which_o blaspheme_n god_n for_o say_v they_o see_v that_o man_n be_v so_o give_v to_o evil_a what_o can_v they_o do_v with_o it_o they_o have_v not_o the_o power_n to_o withstand_v the_o temptation_n and_o

let_v we_o keep_v our_o mouth_n shut_v assure_v ourselves_o that_o all_o the_o evil_n rest_v in_o ourselves_o and_o that_o we_o be_v utter_o soak_a in_o wickedness_n and_o that_o if_o we_o will_v be_v

be_v accomplish_v namely_o that_o god_n shall_v always_o be_v find_v righteous_a in_o judge_v though_o we_o fall_v too_o check_v against_o he_o yet_o shall_v he_o continue_v always_o righteous_a yea_o even_o to_o our_o confusion_n be_v we_o then_o desirous_a to_o be_v justify_v before_o god_n there_o be_v but_o one_o only_a mean_a to_o do_v it_o which_o be_v to_o come_v and_o confess_v that_o there_o be_v nothing_o but_o horrible_a confusion_n in_o we_o and_o that_o we_o have_v not_o so_o much_o as_o one_o drop_n of_o goodness_n and_o therefore_o let_v we_o desire_v god_n to_o receive_v

the_o sea_n of_o all_o virtue_n that_o bring_v we_o to_o salvation_n therefore_o it_o behove_v we_o to_o be_v right_o subject_a unto_o god_n for_o if_o he_o hold_v not_o his_o majesty_n over_o we_o

that_o be_v in_o we_o all_o god_n then_o in_o not_o show_v we_o the_o reason_n of_o his_o work_n do_v it_o to_o the_o end_n we_o shall_v learn_v to_o obey_v he_o again_o if_o we_o see_v not_o why_o

of_o we_o try_v himself_o nay_o contrariwise_o in_o steed_n of_o light_v a_o candle_n to_o search_v our_o own_o want_n and_o sin_n we_o quench_v the_o cresset_n that_o god_n have_v light_v too_o our_o

and_o so_o we_o see_v that_o they_o endeavour_n to_o quench_v the_o lamp_n or_o candle_n that_o god_n have_v light_v in_o they_o to_o draw_v they_o they_o to_o this_o trial_n see_v it_o be_v so_o it_o

serve_v too_o true_a edify_n and_o that_o be_v it_o which_o s._n paul_n mean_v by_o say_v that_o all_o holy_a scripture_n be_v profitable_a but_o how_o be_v it_o that_o god_n have_v say_v unto_o man_n that_o it_o be_v wisdom_n to_o fear_v he_o he_o say_v it_o and_o also_o show_v it_o in_o deed_n when_o he_o publish_v his_o law_n and_o expound_v it_o first_o by_o the_o prophet_n and_o last_o by_o

what_o the_o goodness_n of_o our_o god_n be_v in_o that_o he_o make_v we_o partaker_n of_o the_o wisdom_n which_o he_o know_v to_o be_v good_a and_o expedient_a for_o we_o notwithstanding_o that_o

we_o make_v war_n against_o
thus_o with_o ourselves_o how_o now_o i_o like_v not_o of_o this_o it_o be_v a_o blasphemy_n to_o think_v that_o god_n pity_v not_o such_o as_o call_v upon_o he_o or_o that_o he_o will_v not_o succour_v such_o as_o seek_v he_o it_o be_v all_o one_o as_o if_o we_o will_v deny_v that_o he_o govern_v the_o world_n therefore_o whensoever_o such_o thing_n come_v to_o our_o thought_n sure_o it_o

if_o god_n think_v upon_o i_o will_v he_o not_o have_v a_o care_n to_o help_v i_o he_o do_v it_o not_o but_o dissemble_v and_o therefore_o it_o seem_v that_o he_o have_v quite_o give_v i_o up_o when_o we_o conceive_v such_o thought_n and_o debate_n with_o ourselves_o whither_o god_n have_v a_o care_n of_o we_o or_o no_o than_o it_o behove_v we_o to_o consider_v what_o a_o one_o he_o have_v

in_o my_o god_n and_o flee_v to_o he_o for_o refuge_n howbeit_o although_o we_o final_o attain_v to_o this_o assurance_n and_o undoubtednesse_n yet_o notwithstanding_o if_o we_o waver_v and_o doubt_n before_o we_o come_v thereunto_o it_o be_v a_o great_a fault_n than_o the_o first_o and_o we_o be_v already_o guilty_a of_o mistrust_n &_o unbelief_n before_o god_n because_o we_o have_v receive_v

have_v get_v the_o upper_a hand_n and_o god_n have_v forslow_v to_o long_a to_o reach_v i_o his_o hand_n i_o see_v i_o be_o quite_o past_a hope_n of_o recovery_n when_o we_o be_v so_o cast_v down_o

of_o sin_n for_o like_a as_o when_o a_o child_n be_v full_o shape_v in_o the_o mother_n womb_n there_o remain_v no_o more_o but_o that_o it_o shall_v be_v bear_v so_o in_o this_o case_n there_o want_v

have_v tell_v you_o that_o this_o be_v a_o token_n of_o great_a perfection_n and_o why_o for_o if_o a_o man_n can_v withhold_v his_o sight_n so_o as_o he_o conceive_v not_o any_o thing_n that_o may_v draw_v he_o unto_o evil_n by_o look_v about_o he_o â–ª_o and_o show_v that_o there_o be_v true_a chastity_n and_o honesty_n in_o he_o it_o must_v needs_o be_v say_v that_o he_o be_v clear_a as_o a_o

be_v that_o of_o nature_n he_o be_v not_o so_o and_o also_o whereas_o he_o say_v that_o he_o make_v a_o covenant_n that_o be_v do_v after_o he_o have_v so_o profit_v in_o the_o fear_n of_o god_n as_o he_o have_v thrust_v his_o unruly_a lust_n under_o foot_n and_o so_o overmaster_v his_o affection_n as_o he_o be_v able_a to_o bridle_v they_o and_o keep_v they_o under_o to_o say_v i_o will_v not_o

for_o he_o be_v a_o man_n subject_n to_o affection_n as_o we_o be_v and_o no_o doubt_n but_o he_o have_v many_o temptation_n in_o his_o life_n howbeit_o he_o walk_v in_o such_o wise_a as_o he_o be_v so_o enure_v with_o the_o fear_n of_o god_n as_o not_o to_o admit_v any_o wicked_a lust_n then_o be_v it_o become_v a_o habit_n as_o man_n term_v it_o that_o be_v to_o say_v he_o be_v so_o enure_v unto_o it_o as_o he_o be_v no_o more_o waver_v to_o start_v out_o on_o the_o one_o side_n or_o the_o other_o or_o too_o povoke_v himself_o to_o this_o or_o that_o to_o be_v short_a we_o see_v here_o how_o job_n mean_v to_o declare_v that_o he_o not_o only_o endeavour_v to_o serve_v god_n but_o also_o have_v enforce_v himself_o in_o such_o wise_a to_o it_o as_o he_o have_v tame_v and_o subdue_v

from_o the_o common_a range_n of_o man_n for_o it_o be_v not_o without_o cause_n that_o david_n make_v this_o request_n unto_o god_n lord_n turn_v away_o my_o eye_n that_o they_o may_v see_v no_o

he_o shall_v not_o have_v conceive_v any_o vanity_n nor_o have_v his_o eye_n mislead_v &_o carry_v away_o by_o any_o mean_v but_o forasmuch_o as_o david_n confess_v that_o he_o neither_o have_v it_o nor_o can_v obtain_v it_o but_o by_o the_o mere_a grace_n of_o god_n it_o follow_v therefore_o that_o job_n can_v not_o through_o his_o own_o free_a will_n make_v such_o a_o covenant_n as_o to_o say_v that_o reason_n bear_v such_o sway_n in_o he_o as_o he_o can_v overmaster_v all_o his_o affection_n but_o he_o mean_v here_o to_o yield_v god_n the_o praise_n of_o that_o benefit_n then_o do_v he_o

a_o man_n behold_v a_o wife_n or_o a_o maid_n and_o thereby_o be_v tempt_v unto_o evil_n it_o be_v sin_n already_o before_o god_n yea_o although_o there_o be_v no_o outward_a act_n nor_o any_o put_n

point_n better_a worthy_a to_o be_v mark_v than_o this_o very_o we_o hear_v the_o sentence_n which_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n give_v upon_o it_o namely_o that_o we_o must_v not_o think_v ourselves_o to_o be_v clear_a &_o discharge_v before_o god_n by_o abstain_v from_o whoredom_n in_o respect_n of_o the_o body_n but_o that_o if_o a_o man_n do_v but_o look_v upon_o a_o woman_n with_o a_o unchaste_a look_n he_o be_v already_o condemn_v for_o a_o whoremonger_n before_o god_n and_o moreover_o as_o i_o have_v say_v already_o although_o our_o will_n consent_v not_o unto_o it_o yet_o must_v we_o confess_v that_o we_o have_v do_v amiss_o before_o god_n so_o that_o we_o must_v humble_v ourselves_o the_o papist_n can_v well_o enough_o say_v that_o if_o a_o man_n consent_n unto_o evil_a that_o be_v to_o say_v if_o he_o lust_n after_o it_o in_o such_o wise_a as_o he_o will_v fain_o do_v it_o if_o occasion_n serve_v they_o grant_v that_o such_o a_o consent_n be_v a_o damnable_a sin_n
folly_n when_o we_o take_v upon_o we_o to_o speak_v so_o unadvised_o of_o god_n and_o his_o work_n therefore_o let_v we_o mark_v well_o this_o manner_n of_o speak_v which_o be_v set_v down_o here_o namely_o who_o shall_v report_v it_o to_o he_o we_o debate_v matter_n here_o by_o low_a and_o yet_o in_o the_o mean_a while_o we_o be_v but_o frog_n the_o frog_n can_v make_v a_o great_a crook_a well_o enough_o in_o their_o marsh_n and_o puddle_n and_o yet_o man_n pass_v by_o they_o and_o stay_v not_o for_o all_o their_o crook_a even_o so_o be_v it_o with_o all_o the_o talk_n that_o man_n hold_v for_o there_o be_v no_o reason_n in_o it_o they_o do_v but_o babble_n and_o yet_o they_o bear_v themselves_o in_o hand_n that_o god_n will_v hold_v his_o peace_n and_o do_v all_o that_o they_o will_v have_v he_o to_o do_v but_o it_o be_v clean_o contrary_a therefore_o let_v we_o learn_v that_o when_o so_o ever_o we_o lift_v up_o our_o neb_n against_o god_n we_o shall_v win_v nothing_o by_o it_o but_o our_o word_n shall_v slip_v into_o the_o air_n and_o vanish_v away_o as_o smoke_n nevertheless_o let_v we_o mark_v by_o the_o way_n that_o our_o word_n shall_v not_o fall_v to_o the_o ground_n but_o must_v be_v register_v to_o our_o great_a and_o horrible_a confusion_n then_o if_o our_o pride_n be_v such_o as_o we_o dare_v murmur_n against_o god_n such_o blasphemousnesse_n must_v needs_o come_v too_o a_o reckon_v and_o not_o escape_v unpunished_a therefore_o let_v we_o not_o imagine_v too_o gain_v any_o thing_n against_o god_n but_o whensoever_o we_o be_v tempt_v to_o stand_v in_o contention_n with_o he_o let_v we_o call_v this_o say_n to_o remembrance_n namely_o who_o shall_v report_v it_o to_o he_o true_a it_o be_v that_o god_n hear_v it_o and_o nothing_o escape_v he_o but_o yet_o for_o all_o that_o he_o vouchsafe_v not_o to_o stoop_v to_o our_o bibblebabble_n as_o though_o we_o be_v his_o match_n tush_o we_o be_v but_o frog_n as_o i_o say_v afore_o to_o be_v short_a this_o serve_v to_o show_v we_o that_o we_o shall_v never_o get_v the_o upper_a hand_n in_o plead_v against_o god_n and_o moreover_o that_o there_o be_v no_o reason_n why_o he_o shall_v abase_v himself_o so_o much_o as_o to_o answer_v we_o and_o why_o for_o it_o touch_v he_o not_o we_o can_v come_v near_o he_o with_o our_o babble_n although_o we_o file_v our_o tongue_n so_o as_o they_o cut_v and_o slice_n smooth_o in_o the_o air_n yet_o shall_v god_n abide_v still_o safe_a and_o sound_a and_o he_o need_v not_o to_o strain_v himself_o to_o reply_v against_o we_o or_o to_o find_v any_o excuse_n for_o that_o be_v needless_a so_o then_o let_v we_o learn_v to_o speak_v with_o such_o reverence_n that_o the_o word_n which_o we_o shall_v utter_v may_v be_v make_v of_o praise_n so_o as_o god_n may_v accept_v they_o and_o how_o may_v we_o do_v that_o by_o his_o purge_n of_o our_o tongue_n that_o be_v too_o say_v by_o utter_v nothing_o but_o that_o which_o come_v of_o his_o word_n and_o which_o we_o have_v learn_v in_o his_o school_n and_o for_o a_o conclusion_n let_v we_o mark_v what_o eliu_n add_v if_o any_o man_n speak_v say_v he_o shall_v be_v not_o be_v swallow_v up_o he_o show_v we_o here_o what_o confusion_n be_v prepare_v for_o all_o such_o as_o dare_v so_o set_v themselves_o against_o god_n and_o will_v fain_o find_v fault_n with_o his_o work_n what_o shall_v they_o gain_v then_o in_o the_o end_n they_o shall_v all_o be_v swallow_v up_o we_o see_v that_o all_o creature_n must_v needs_o tremble_v at_o god_n majesty_n and_o what_o shall_v be_v do_v then_o when_o there_o be_v manifest_a rebellion_n god_n can_v with_o one_o frown_n make_v the_o mountain_n and_o rock_n to_o melt_v empty_a the_o sea_n &_o destroy_v the_o whole_a world_n if_o

who_o be_v but_o a_o handful_n of_o dust_n will_v needs_o wage_v battle_n against_o his_o maker_n and_o i_o pray_v you_o can_v he_o hold_v out_o all_o the_o world_n shall_v perish_v as_o soon_o as_o it_o come_v under_o god_n hand_n and_o behold_v a_o worm_n a_o wretched_a carrion_n will_v put_v god_n to_o silence_n and_o not_o only_o so_o but_o he_o will_v also_o rob_v god_n of_o his_o honour_n and_o not_o have_v he_o too_o be_v count_v wise_a and_o righteous_a as_o he_o be_v worthy_a alas_o must_v we_o not_o needs_o be_v worse_o than_o blind_a when_o we_o come_v rush_v with_o such_o
