die_v whenever_o the_o lord_n shall_v be_v please_v to_o call_v for_o i_o out_o of_o the_o world_n be_o i_o prepare_v for_o my_o latter_a end_n who_o be_v they_o that_o be_v prepare_v for_o a_o die_a

as_o the_o sense_n and_o meaning_n of_o these_o word_n of_o the_o apostle_n though_o i_o own_o there_o be_v more_o in_o it_o when_o he_o say_v to_o the_o galatian_n i_o travel_v in_o birth_n and_o

and_o carry_v on_o and_o not_o only_o begin_v in_o we_o and_o then_o we_o shall_v with_o good_a success_n preach_v the_o gospel_n and_o without_o this_o no_o hope_n of_o success_n let_v man_n preach_v ever_o so_o much_o in_o a_o form_n of_o sound_a word_n yet_o they_o can_v preach_v with_o hope_n of_o success_n i_o say_v further_o it_o may_v have_v this_o further_a sense_n that_o whereas_o paul_n have_v former_o labour_v among_o these_o galatian_n and_o god_n have_v bless_v his_o labour_n so_o that_o there_o be_v a_o good_a degree_n of_o the_o work_n of_o god_n begin_v in_o they_o there_o

with_o they_o by_o way_n of_o lamentation_n after_o this_o manner_n o_o foolish_a galatian_n who_o have_v bewitch_v you_o that_o you_o shall_v not_o obey_v the_o truth_n before_o who_o eye_n jesus_n christ_n have_v be_v evident_o set_v forth_o crucify_a among_o you_o this_o only_a will_v i_o learn_v of_o you_o receive_v you_o the_o spirit_n by_o the_o work_v of_o the_o law_n or_o by_o the_o bear_n of_o faith_n those_o that_o they_o have_v commend_v and_o esteem_v as_o minister_n of_o christ_n labour_v to_o bring_v they_o back_o to_o the_o law_n and_o to_o the_o observance_n of_o jewish_a rite_n and_o ceremony_n to_o observe_v day_n and_o time_n and_o such_o thing_n i_o be_o afraid_a say_v he_o i_o have_v labour_v among_o you_o in_o vain_a lest_o that_o be_v mar_v and_o hurt_v in_o you_o and_o you_o suffer_v loss_n in_o that_o which_o i_o labour_v for_o and_o make_v evident_a to_o you_o and_o therefore_o the_o apostle_n labour_v the_o second_o time_n that_o that_o may_v be_v recover_v in_o they_o and_o gain_v which_o have_v suffer_v loss_n and_o detriment_n but_o now_o to_o speak_v somewhat_o more_o particular_o to_o the_o matter_n itself_o which_o shall_v be_v by_o answer_v a_o weighty_a question_n which_o be_v this_o quest_n what_o be_v it_o to_o have_v christ_n form_v in_o a_o man_n or_o woman_n now_o in_o order_n to_o the_o answer_v of_o this_o question_n it_o be_v in_o my_o heart_n to_o make_v use_n of_o that_o parable_n of_o our_o bless_a lord_n as_o we_o find_v â—t_a in_o one_o of_o the_o evangelist_n where_o the_o kingdom_n of_o god_n be_v liken_v unto_o a_o grain_n of_o corn_n unto_o seed_n wheat_n or_o other_o grain_n which_o a_o man_n sow_n in_o his_o field_n and_o it_o spring_v first_o into_o the_o blade_n then_o into_o the_o ear_n and_o last_o of_o all_o it_o come_v to_o ripe_a fruit._n now_o as_o to_o the_o seed_n of_o corn_n to_o which_o he_o compare_v the_o kingdom_n of_o god_n it_o be_v certain_a that_o which_o the_o scripture_n call_v incorruptible_a seed_n be_v a_o seed_n of_o god_n which_o come_v from_o he_o immediate_o as_o i_o may_v say_v and_o yet_o come_v to_o we_o through_o christ_n 1_o john_n 3.9_o whosoever_o be_v bear_v of_o god_n do_v not_o commit_v sin_n for_o his_o seed_n remain_v in_o he_o and_o he_o can_v sin_n because_o he_o be_v bear_v of_o god_n now_o the_o seed_n of_o god_n which_o be_v call_v the_o

the_o husbandman_n take_v pain_n to_o cut_v up_o and_o root_v up_o those_o weed_n and_o tare_n to_o keep_v his_o ground_n clean_o that_o so_o the_o clean_a seed_n may_v grow_v and_o come_v to_o ripeness_n and_o maturity_n so_o it_o be_v very_o ordinary_a and_o usual_a for_o the_o husbandman_n to_o weed_n his_o corn_n when_o the_o corn_n be_v young_a as_o i_o have_v see_v it_o practise_v and_o those_o that_o go_v to_o weed_n the_o corn_n must_v be_v very_o tender_a lest_o they_o ttead_o under_o foot_n the_o corn_n and_o tender_a plant_n they_o must_v do_v it_o careful_o tender_o and_o
