answer_n will_v be_v peace_n which_o be_v the_o form_n of_o salutation_n in_o those_o age_n among_o friend_n import_v a_o entire_a reconciliation_n so_o that_o by_o speak_v peace_n be_v to_o be_v

1._o folly_n in_o scripture_n stand_v often_o for_o atheism_n and_o impiety_n 13._o the_o fool_n have_v say_v in_o his_o heart_n that_o there_o be_v not_o a_o god_n sometime_o for_o idolatry_n there_o

but_o most_o common_o the_o irregularity_n of_o vice_n be_v set_v forth_o in_o scripture_n under_o this_o notion_n to_o show_v how_o contrary_a they_o be_v to_o all_o the_o principle_n of_o true_a

therefore_o it_o be_v necessary_a to_o use_v most_o earnest_a and_o fervent_a prayer_n for_o remove_v god_n anger_n and_o for_o the_o procure_v his_o favour_n and_o that_o our_o great_a

that_o a_o nation_n which_o will_v secure_v to_o itself_o the_o continuance_n of_o god_n favour_n and_o of_o all_o the_o blessing_n that_o accompany_v it_o must_v above_o all_o thing_n take_v care_n of_o not_o relapse_v into_o vice_n and_o idolatry_n ungodliness_n and_o atheism_n to_o return_v the_o great_a security_n and_o happiness_n of_o a_o nation_n depend_v on_o its_o be_v at_o peace_n

the_o subject_n of_o their_o profane_a mirth_n as_o much_o as_o they_o will_v or_o there_o be_v nothing_o true_a in_o all_o religion_n if_o god_n be_v infinite_o wise_a and_o perfect_a and_o if_o he_o make_v the_o world_n which_o they_o pretend_v to_o own_o then_o certain_o he_o still_o take_v care_n of_o it_o for_o no_o body_n can_v deny_v a_o providence_n that_o do_v not_o likewise_o in_o his_o

from_o one_o another_o and_o in_o their_o colour_n which_o he_o can_v understand_v neither_o and_o that_o thus_o at_o a_o great_a distance_n we_o can_v reason_n and_o judge_v of_o thing_n to_o one_o that_o perceive_v nothing_o but_o by_o touch_n this_o will_v appear_v very_o unconceivable_a if_o then_o the_o good_a disposition_n of_o a_o organ_n raise_v one_o man_n so_o far_o above_o another_o that_o he_o can_v apprehend_v how_o such_o a_o extent_n of_o perception_n be_v possible_a it_o be_v a_o most_o unreasonable_a thing_n to_o conclude_v against_o any_o perfection_n in_o the_o divine_a mind_n because_o it_o be_v beyond_o our_o compass_n of_o thought_n the_o other_o prejudice_n against_o providence_n seem_v a_o little_a better_o ground_v which_o be_v that_o in_o the_o government_n of_o the_o world_n there_o be_v such_o a_o irregularity_n that_o it_o can_v be_v suppose_v to_o flow_v from_o a_o good_a and_o a_o wise_a be_v but_o this_o be_v likewise_o a_o effect_n of_o the_o

out_o of_o the_o contrariety_n of_o nature_n that_o be_v between_o they_o it_o be_v then_o as_o certain_a as_o that_o there_o be_v a_o god_n that_o he_o be_v perfect_o pure_a and_o holy_a and_o that_o by_o consequence_n such_o nation_n as_o be_v virtuous_a and_o innocent_a that_o be_v neither_o false_a nor_o cruel_a vicious_a nor_o dissolute_a must_v be_v more_o acceptable_a to_o he_o and_o more_o
