A95864	A sermon preached to the Honorable House of Commons; at their late solemne fast, December, 28. Wherein is described 1. The church her patience: 2. Her hope. In the exercise of both which graces, she is enabled to waite upon God in the way of his judgements: in which divers cases are propounded and resolved. That the soul sick of love, doth with more difficulty endure the absence of Christ, then the present evils of this world. By Thomas Valentine, Rector of Chalfont in Buckinghamshire. Published by order of that House.	Valentine, Thomas, 1585 or 6-1665?	1643 (1643)	Wing V26; Thomason E86_32; ESTC R12382	44,658	51

reason_n the_o disturber_n of_o the_o understanding_n whereby_o wise_a man_n speak_v nothing_o do_v nothing_o like_v themselves_o it_o be_v a_o weakness_n to_o have_v passion_n a_o great_a weakness_n to_o be_v conquer_v by_o they_o therefore_o when_o the_o people_n give_v too_o much_o to_o the_o apostle_n to_o take_v down_o that_o opinion_n 14.15_o act._n 14.15_o they_o allege_v they_o be_v man_n

when_o we_o be_v command_v 21.19_o luk._n 21.19_o to_o possess_v our_o soul_n in_o patience_n it_o appear_v that_o by_o passion_n and_o impatience_n we_o be_v dispossess_v of_o our_o soul_n of_o our_o
