you_o have_v descrive_v exod._n 30._o the_o similitude_n be_v remarkable_a first_o brotherly_a love_n whereof_o concord_n and_o peace_n be_v the_o fruit_n be_v like_o anoyntment_n a_o ointment_n make_v supple_n and_o active_a and_o love_n make_v we_o prepare_v and_o ready_a to_o every_o good_a work_n 2._o it_o be_v like_a unto_o the_o priestly_a ointment_n that_o be_v a_o holy_a and_o a_o sacred_a thing_n so_o brotherly_a love_n consecrate_v we_o to_o god_n and_o be_v not_o to_o be_v find_v but_o among_o the_o godly_a peace_n be_v the_o fruit_n of_o the_o spirit_n and_o spring_v not_o but_o from_o he_o that_o be_v root_v in_o christ_n the_o peace_n of_o the_o wicked_a be_v no_o true_a peace_n it_o be_v either_o not_o sincere_a but_o corrupt_v by_o some_o by_o respect_n of_o gain_n or_o pleasure_n or_o not_o ground_v upon_o the_o right_a foundation_n which_o be_v god_n 3._o this_o concord_n and_o peace_n be_v not_o like_a to_o any_o ointment_n pour_v on_o the_o priest_n but_o like_a to_o that_o precious_a ointment_n that_o be_v pour_v on_o the_o head_n of_o aaron_n the_o high_a priest_n and_o pour_v in_o such_o abundance_n upon_o he_o that_o it_o do_v run_v down_o to_o his_o beard_n and_o to_o the_o hem_n of_o his_o garment_n send_v forth_o a_o most_o sweet_a smell_n whereby_o all_o that_o be_v present_a be_v refresh_v so_o be_v the_o peace_n and_o love_n among_o brethren_n it_o be_v in_o itself_o a_o most_o excellent_a thing_n and_o most_o pleasant_a and_o comfortable_a to_o all_o that_o perceive_v it_o wo_n to_o that_o man_n who_o this_o sweet_a smell_n offend_v he_o can_v be_v but_o miserable_a the_o second_o comparison_n follow_v dew_n as_o the_o dew_n of_o hermon_n and_o as_o the_o dew_n etc._n etc._n here_o also_o a_o excellent_a comparison_n the_o similitude_n be_v take_v from_o the_o dew_n &_o dew_n descend_v on_o the_o mountain_n even_o the_o mountain_n of_o hermon_n and_o zion_n which_o be_v in_o the_o holy_a land_n among_o the_o people_n of_o god_n the_o one_o upon_o the_o one_o side_n and_o the_o other_o upon_o the_o other_o side_n the_o dew_n be_v not_o only_o a_o pleasant_a but_o also_o a_o most_o profitable_a thing_n rain_n be_v sometime_o harmful_a but_o dew_n be_v never_o hurtful_a on_o the_o contrary_a it_o be_v most_o profitable_a to_o the_o earth_n especial_o to_o the_o mountain_n upon_o which_o the_o rain_v lie_v not_o but_o tun_v down_o to_o the_o valley_n so_o peace_n and_o concord_n be_v a_o most_o fruitful_a thing_n where_o it_o be_v preserve_v religion_n learning_n justice_n wealth_n &_o all_o good_a thing_n abound_v 2._o he_o compare_v this_o concord_n to_o dew_n upon_o the_o mountain_n and_o to_o the_o ointment_n upon_o the_o head_n run_v thence_o to_o the_o beard_n to_o signify_v that_o this_o concord_n and_o peace_n shall_v be_v careful_o keep_v by_o those_o who_o be_v head_n and_o ruler_n of_o people_n either_o in_o the_o church_n or_o in_o the_o state_n that_o thence_o it_o may_v be_v convoy_v to_o they_o that_o be_v inferior_n if_o these_o that_o be_v most_o high_a and_o eminent_a be_v at_o variance_n what_o wonder_n that_o those_o who_o be_v low_o follow_v their_o example_n but_o if_o they_o be_v join_v in_o unity_n the_o like_a may_v easy_o be_v find_v among_o other_o 3._o the_o dew_n come_v from_o heaven_n the_o earth_n have_v no_o power_n of_o itself_o to_o bring_v it_o forth_o so_o this_o brotherly_a concord_n be_v the_o gift_n of_o god_n it_o come_v from_o heaven_n and_o from_o heaven_n it_o must_v be_v earnest_o seek_v by_o they_o who_o will_v have_v it_o but_o why_o i_o pray_v you_o do_v all_o this_o good_a accompany_v brotherly_a concord_n and_o unity_n the_o reason_n be_v set_v down_o by_o the_o prophet_n in_o the_o next_o word_n for_o the_o lord_n have_v command_v a_o blessing_n there_o it_o etc._n etc._n here_o be_v the_o fountain_n whence_o all_o that_o good_a flow_v which_o accompani_v peace_n god_n have_v command_v his_o blessing_n to_o attend_v it_o &_o where_o his_o blessing_n be_v there_o all_o good_a be_v for_o what_o he_o bless_v shall_v be_v bless_v indeed_o he_o have_v command_v not_o only_o the_o blessing_n of_o this_o life_n to_o attend_v this_o unity_n and_o love_n of_o brethren_n but_o even_o life_n for_o evermore_o which_o be_v begin_v in_o this_o life_n by_o that_o peace_n of_o god_n which_o pass_v understanding_n that_o keep_v our_o heart_n and_o mind_n through_o christ_n jesus_n and_o shall_v be_v accomplish_v by_o that_o eternal_a peace_n which_o shall_v be_v in_o the_o sight_n of_o god_n for_o ever_o in_o the_o heavenly_a jerusalem_n which_o signify_v as_o much_o as_o the_o vision_n of_o peace_n he_o that_o be_v unite_v to_o his_o brother_n in_o god_n shall_v be_v bless_v with_o that_o bless_a union_n with_o god_n and_o he_o that_o be_v divyde_v from_o his_o brother_n to_o who_o he_o shall_v adhere_v in_o god_n shall_v be_v separate_v from_o god_n himself_o he_o will_v say_v to_o he_o depart_v from_o i_o you_o curse_v etc._n etc._n thus_o david_n have_v give_v we_o a_o short_a but_o a_o divine_a portraiture_n of_o brotherly_a concord_n it_o whereby_o we_o may_v also_o perceive_v what_o
