mighty_a hand_n to_o her_o great_a comfort_n to_o his_o glory_n and_o to_o the_o perpetual_a overthrow_n of_o he_o and_o her_o enemy_n that_o have_v assail_v she_o no_o doubt_n but_o some_o singular_a

common_a and_o shall_v be_v common_a benefit_n to_o the_o church_n so_o long_o as_o she_o be_v absent_a in_o the_o body_n from_o the_o lord_n for_o he_o have_v give_v the_o custody_n of_o his_o word_n

wonderful_a a_o work_n in_o the_o which_o the_o lord_n show_v himself_o to_o be_v a_o mighty_a preserver_n of_o his_o own_o and_o a_o terrible_a revenger_n on_o his_o enemy_n a_o work_n accomplish_v by_o his_o own_o virtue_n and_o force_n only_o without_o the_o support_n of_o any_o creature_n live_v in_o the_o three_o part_n he_o set_v down_o a_o exhortation_n to_o the_o church_n to_o grow_v in_o

wherein_o still_o the_o lord_n show_v himself_o exceed_v gracious_a towards_o his_o people_n the_o benefit_n be_v this_o that_o he_o have_v reveal_v himself_o so_o plain_o and_o so_o familiar_o to_o

to_o this_o general_a revelation_n which_o be_v know_v to_o the_o world_n it_o serve_v nothing_o to_o our_o instruction_n profit_n nor_o erudition_n but_o serve_v rather_o to_o our_o conviction_n that_o the_o lord_n may_v have_v within_o we_o a_o testimony_n of_o our_o just_a condemnation_n and_o therefore_o beside_o this_o general_a revelation_n whereby_o he_o have_v reveal_v himself_o unto_o all_o flesh_n he_o have_v manifest_v himself_o to_o his_o church_n by_o a_o special_a and_o particular_a revelation_n beside_o that_o common_a light_n and_o natural_a understanding_n he_o have_v

therefore_o for_o this_o his_o experience_n he_o offer_v his_o service_n to_o god_n protest_v to_o be_v thankful_a to_o he_o as_o he_o have_v be_v thankful_a in_o time_n past_a and_o in_o the_o end_n of_o the_o psalm_n he_o retire_v himself_o to_o prayer_n and_o commend_v his_o estate_n to_o the_o protection_n of_o god_n that_o as_o he_o have_v deliver_v he_o in_o time_n past_a so_o he_o will_v continue_v the_o same_o in_o mercy_n to_o he_o in_o time_n to_o come_v this_o i_o take_v to_o be_v the_o sum_n of_o this_o psalm_n touch_v the_o part_n of_o it_o we_o have_v three_o in_o the_o first_o whereof_o we_o have_v the_o praise_n and_o commendation_n of_o the_o mercy_n and_o kindness_n of_o god_n whereby_o it_o come_v to_o pass_v that_o he_o reject_v not_o they_o that_o depend_v upon_o he_o in_o the_o second_o for_o this_o experience_n that_o he_o have_v find_v he_o offer_v his_o service_n to_o god_n &_o as_o he_o have_v proclaim_v his_o justice_n &_o mercy_n in_o time_n past_a so_o he_o

that_o as_o it_o have_v please_v he_o to_o preserve_v he_o in_o time_n past_a so_o it_o will_v please_v he_o to_o preserve_v he_o in_o time_n to_o come_v follow_v the_o literal_a meaning_n this_o be_v

from_o he_o for_o a_o space_n and_o why_o he_o be_v consume_v with_o his_o own_o iniquity_n he_o desire_v that_o at_o the_o last_o he_o will_v incline_v his_o ear_n to_o his_o prayer_n and_o keep_v no_o long_o silence_n at_o his_o tear_n in_o respect_n he_o know_v he_o be_v but_o a_o soiourner_n and_o a_o pilgrim_n in_o the_o earth_n as_o the_o rest_n of_o his_o father_n be_v he_o say_v withdraw_v thy_o heavy_a hand_n o_o lord_n and_o let_v the_o mercy_n that_o i_o look_v for_o appear_v to_o i_o now_o in_o this_o psalm_n he_o let_v we_o see_v what_o issue_n and_o end_v his_o long_a wait_v obtain_v to_o wit_n a_o most_o bless_a and_o happy_a end_n for_o in_o this_o psalm_n we_o see_v that_o the_o lord_n at_o last_o incline_v his_o ear_n unto_o he_o and_o show_v in_o experience_n that_o though_o he_o answer_v he_o not_o at_o first_o yet_o he_o be_v not_o deaf_a but_o accomplish_v his_o desire_n in_o draw_v he_o out_o of_o his_o misery_n in_o the_o which_o he_o lay_v which_o
