caco_fw-la that_o this_o present_a psalm_n appertain_v to_o the_o kind_a deliberative_a the_o state_n or_o proposition_n be_v general_a that_o god_n be_v high_o to_o be_v praise_v because_o he_o be_v

fraught_v with_o excellent_a doctrine_n as_o 1._o that_o calamity_n be_v send_v of_o god_n himself_o 2._o that_o in_o send_v of_o plague_n to_o the_o wicked_a god_n show_v his_o justice_n 3_o that_o by_o affliction_n we_o be_v stir_v up_o to_o prayer_n and_o invocation_n to_o faith_n hope_n etc._n etc._n 4_o that_o such_o as_o call_v upon_o god_n for_o aid_n be_v not_o forsake_v of_o he_o but_z at_z that_o length_n be_v holpen_v 5_o that_o god_n as_o he_o do_v without_o difference_n correct_v all_o sort_n of_o man_n whither_o they_o be_v good_a or_o bad_a so_o also_o he_o help_v they_o 6_o that_o the_o providence_n of_o god_n may_v apréere_v on_o every_o side_n wonderful_a as_o well_o when_o we_o be_v afflict_v as_o also_o when_o we_o be_v deliver_v from_o affliction_n many_o other_o

from_o the_o hand_n of_o the_o oppressor_n this_o be_v the_o proposition_n of_o the_o whole_a psalm_n by_o way_n of_o a_o exhortation_n god_n say_v he_o be_v good_a and_o his_o mercy_n be_v every_o

one_o to_o praise_v god_n let_v we_o therefore_o so_o take_v these_o thing_n as_o though_o the_o holyghost_n sound_v they_o in_o our_o heart_n and_o as_o though_o we_o feel_v his_o power_n secret_o work_v in_o we_o let_v we_o the_o more_o cheerful_o sing_v praise_n unto_o god_n thus_o then_o he_o say_v confess_v unto_o the_o lord_n among_o the_o hebrews_n to_o confess_v unto_o the_o lord_n be_v
