A00686	A briefe conference betwixt mans frailtie and faith wherein is declared the true vse, and comfort of those blessings pronounced by Christ in the fifth of Matthew, that euery Christian man and woman ought to make and take hold of in their seuerall tentations and conflicts: laide downe in this plaine order of dialogue, to helpe, if it please God, the conceit and feeling of the simplest.

own_o diligence_n and_o content_v myself_o in_o a_o short_a speech_n with_o a_o very_a few_o begin_v first_o with_o that_o notable_a psalm_n of_o the_o prophet_n david_n whole_o spend_v in_o this_o 133._o matter_n where_o the_o first_o argument_n be_v this_o that_o which_o be_v good_a aught_o ever_o 1._o great_o to_o be_v regard_v and_o maintain_v among_o man_n but_o much_o more_o if_o it_o both_o be_v good_a &_o pleasant_a too_o for_o these_o both_o do_v not_o ever_o concur_v together_o but_o such_o a_o thing_n be_v peace_n and_o love_n amongst_o man_n for_o behold_v how_o good_a and_o pleasant_a a_o thing_n it_o be_v brethren_n to_o dwell_v together_o in_o unity_n behold_v i_o say_v and_o even_o mark_v it_o earnest_o therefore_o it_o ought_v to_o be_v regard_v and_o mainten_v ever_o to_o the_o uttermost_a of_o our_o power_n among_o us._n his_o second_o argument_n be_v this_o that_o which_o 2._o cast_v a_o comfort_n from_o it_o like_o the_o precious_a ointment_n that_o be_v appoint_v for_o the_o priest_n of_o the_o lord_n aaron_n and_o his_o successor_n and_o even_o such_o a_o comfort_n as_o that_o ointment_n have_v when_o it_o be_v not_o spare_o drop_v but_o even_o plentiful_o pour_v and_o so_o plentiful_o as_o that_o it_o run_v down_o even_o from_o the_o top_n of_o the_o head_n to_o the_o skirt_n of_o his_o clothing_n that_o be_v a_o notable_a thing_n among_o man_n and_o by_o all_o mean_n to_o be_v retain_v and_o seek_v but_o this_o be_v peace_n and_o unity_n love_n and_o agreement_n among_o they_o therefore_o to_o be_v regard_v and_o maintain_v great_o his_o three_o argument_n be_v this_o that_o which_o 3._o be_v have_v be_v to_o man_n as_o the_o dew_n descend_v from_o the_o mountain_n to_o y_z e_z ground_n and_o be_v want_v be_v as_o the_o want_n of_o moisture_n to_o the_o earth_n that_o be_v thrice_o needful_a gainful_a and_o good_a to_o man_n but_o such_o be_v unity_n peace_n and_o love_n even_o like_o the_o dew_n of_o hermon_n that_o fall_v upon_o the_o hill_n of_o zion_n therefore_o to_o be_v regard_v and_o maintain_v great_o his_o last_o and_o not_o his_o least_o argument_n wherewith_o he_o end_v both_o this_o matter_n and_o 4._o that_o psalm_n withal_o be_v this_o that_o which_o pull_v upon_o man_n even_o all_o the_o temporal_a blessing_n of_o god_n and_o life_n for_o evermore_o that_o be_v a_o thousand_o time_n profitable_a both_o to_o they_o and_o they_o but_o such_o say_v the_o prophet_n be_v peace_n and_o unity_n love_n and_o agreement_n among_o man_n therefore_o to_o be_v regard_v and_o maintain_v great_o thus_o you_o see_v one_o man_n judgement_n and_o that_o such_o a_o man_n as_o have_v abundance_n of_o god_n most_o bless_a spirit_n to_o direct_v his_o heart_n to_o think_v and_o pen_n to_o write_v and_o as_o in_o truth_n be_v every_o way_n then_o renown_v and_o now_o remain_v by_o the_o lord_n himself_o in_o high_a degree_n above_o other_o commend_v to_o us._n unto_o who_o if_o you_o add_v some_o other_o scripture_n you_o shall_v more_o peradventure_o be_v confirm_v with_o diversity_n though_o this_o indeed_o be_v sufficient_a consider_v therefore_o also_o those_o often_o repetition_n of_o christ_n in_o the_o gospel_n my_o peace_n i_o give_v 34._o to_o you_o my_o peace_n i_o leave_v with_o you_o love_v one_o a_o other_o for_o this_o be_v my_o commandment_n that_o you_o love_v one_o a_o

you_o love_v one_o a_o other_o will_v ever_o the_o lord_n jesus_n have_v thus_o go_v over_o and_o over_o it_o again_o and_o iterate_a charge_n upon_o charge_n in_o this_o order_n if_o it_o have_v

to_o keep_v the_o unity_n of_o the_o spirit_n in_o the_o bond_n of_o peace_n and_o why_o for_o there_o be_v one_o body_n and_o one_o spirit_n one_o hope_n of_o call_v one_o lord_n one_o faith_n one_o

of_o other_o place_n to_o the_o same_o conclusion_n which_o assure_o the_o lord_n will_v never_o have_v utter_v but_o that_o the_o price_n of_o peace_n unity_n and_o love_n be_v very_o precious_a in_o his_o eye_n and_o to_o all_o estate_n a_o most_o sovereign_a good_a in_o the_o world_n see_v also_o how_o sensible_o unity_n thing_n in_o nature_n carry_v we_o to_o this_o consideration_n for_o by_o

therefore_o judge_v by_o this_o the_o fruit_n of_o good_a agreement_n again_o if_o the_o humour_n in_o man_n body_n be_v at_o a_o agreement_n not_o one_o above_o a_o other_o but_o very_o equal_o as_o

fruit_n of_o good_a agreement_n again_o if_o the_o member_n of_o the_o body_n well_o agree_v to_o do_v their_o several_a duty_n all_o be_v well_o but_o if_o either_o eye_n deny_v to_o guide_v foot_n
