show_v already_o that_o here_o be_v no_o mention_n of_o any_o special_a and_o particular_a benefit_n bestow_v only_o upon_o the_o prophet_n but_o that_o the_o cause_n pertain_v as_o well_o to_o the_o

attain_v to_o the_o like_a zeal_n great_a be_v the_o work_n etc_n etc_n here_o we_o see_v the_o first_o school_n the_o first_o master_n &_o doctor_n that_o david_n have_v even_o the_o work_n of_o

therein_o 1.19_o therefore_o it_o be_v that_o 〈◊〉_d apostle_n in_o the_o first_o to_o the_o roman_n say_v that_o which_o be_v to_o be_v know_v of_o god_n that_o be_v his_o eternal_a power_n and_o

they_o know_v yet_o learn_v not_o by_o they_o to_o worship_n god_n as_o become_v they_o that_o be_v in_o spirit_n but_o they_o change_v the_o glory_n of_o the_o everlasting_a and_o holy_a god_n into_o the_o similitude_n of_o mortal_a and_o unclean_a beast_n therefore_o in_o the_o first_o epistle_n to_o the_o corinth_n the_o apostle_n call_v it_o wisdom_n 1.21_o which_o god_n set_v before_o the_o world_n when_o they_o be_v without_o the_o word_n and_o have_v only_o his_o work_n for_o book_n to_o read_v upon_o 14.17_o therefore_o last_o of_o all_o the_o apostle_n call_v these_o work_n of_o god_n the_o rain_n and_o seasonable_a weather_n and_o joy_n of_o heart_n witness_n of_o god_n we_o see_v then_o that_o that_o be_v in_o deed_n a_o school_n of_o wisdom_n by_o the_o doctrine_n of_o the_o scripture_n which_o also_o may_v appear_v unto_o we_o by_o the_o effect_n of_o that_o excellent_a and_o high_a knowledge_n which_o the_o philosopher_n attain_v even_o by_o they_o only_o how_o
