the_o first_o doctrine_n we_o hence_o observe_v be_v that_o christian_n ought_v to_o mark_v and_o observe_v the_o power_n and_o force_v of_o god_n wrath_n in_o all_o those_o particular_n wherein_o

that_o he_o have_v do_v perform_v such_o like_a action_n as_o repent_v person_n use_v to_o do_v in_o the_o like_a case_n for_o as_o a_o father_n after_o he_o have_v correct_v his_o child_n show_v no_o

so_o only_o but_o often_o as_o a_o love_a father_n or_o mother_n use_v to_o do_v he_o manifest_v a_o kind_n of_o wrath_n against_o the_o rod_n wherewith_o he_o correct_v his_o child_n that_o be_v those_o who_o he_o have_v raise_v up_o to_o afflict_v his_o child_n withal_o who_o he_o call_v the_o rod_n of_o his_o indignation_n he_o punish_v they_o as_o though_o 5._o he_o be_v angry_a with_o

to_o see_v his_o fault_n and_o acknowledge_v it_o god_n will_v show_v some_o way_n or_o other_o special_a kindness_n he_o will_v recompense_v his_o child_n as_o it_o be_v for_o the_o hurt_n he_o have_v do_v he_o as_o though_o he_o have_v wrong_v he_o so_o that_o god_n will_v never_o show_v himself_o more_o kind_a to_o any_o then_o to_o those_o that_o he_o have_v correct_v he_o will_v double_v

learn_v lie_v under_o god_n hand_n though_o for_o a_o long_a time_n together_o not_o to_o despair_v as_o though_o when_o god_n show_v himself_o once_o angry_a there_o be_v no_o hope_n or_o
