winepress_a alone_o last_o and_o the_o least_o in_o reputation_n of_o judgement_n be_v the_o jew_n who_o even_o at_o this_o day_n understand_v it_o to_o be_v mean_v of_o the_o war_n of_o the_o israelite_n with_o gog_n and_o magog_n ezechiel_n 38._o 39_o but_o that_o i_o seem_v not_o more_o opinative_a than_o orthodoxal_a i_o may_v safe_o say_v with_o the_o precedent_a word_n of_o my_o text_n that_o these_o shall_v be_v accomplish_v in_o the_o latter_a day_n which_o be_v always_o take_v for_o the_o day_n of_o christ_n when_o with_o the_o effusion_n of_o his_o blood_n he_o will_v power_n out_o the_o abundance_n of_o his_o spirit_n upon_o all_o flesh_n and_o withal_o show_v his_o wonder_n from_o time_n to_o time_n to_o a_o senseless_a world_n senseless_a of_o it_o saviour_n so_o as_o from_o the_o first_o day_n of_o his_o come_n in_o grace_n to_o the_o last_o day_n of_o his_o appearance_n in_o glory_n wonder_n shall_v appear_v more_o or_o less_o to_o the_o comfort_n of_o the_o godly_a and_o confusion_n of_o the_o wicked_a and_o sure_o it_o be_v respective_a to_o see_v how_o spare_v the_o lord_n be_v of_o his_o judgement_n and_o how_o plentiful_a in_o his_o mercy_n his_o blood_n and_o spirit_n be_v pour_v out_o in_o all_o abundance_n his_o sign_n &_o prodigy_n be_v but_o spare_o show_v and_o point_v at_o as_o harbinger_n of_o his_o wrath_n to_o move_v we_o to_o

not_o upon_o we_o before_o we_o repent_v there_o be_v never_o mercy_n either_o meet_v it_o on_o earth_n or_o match_v it_o in_o heaven_n and_o therefore_o i_o know_v not_o whether_o i_o shall_v more_o willing_o admire_v his_o love_n in_o spend_v his_o mercy_n upon_o we_o or_o his_o undeserued_a favour_n in_o provoke_v our_o repentance_n david_n in_o the_o person_n of_o the_o faithful_a and_o in_o

subject_n i_o have_v in_o hand_n these_o saint_n in_o zion_n sorrow_n not_o for_o that_o they_o have_v no_o ensign_n to_o follow_v on_o earth_n but_o because_o they_o have_v no_o sign_n show_v they_o from_o heaven_n to_o assure_v they_o of_o the_o lord_n presence_n to_o fight_v their_o battle_n and_o be_v propitious_a deem_v it_o more_o disastrous_a to_o fail_v of_o sign_n about_o then_o of_o ensign_n below_o where_o pprophecy_n be_v not_o there_o the_o people_n perish_v and_o where_o neither_o wonder_n from_o heaven_n wound_v we_o to_o repentance_n nor_o token_n below_o provoke_v we_o to_o prayer_n we_o be_v in_o danger_n and_o die_v in_o our_o security_n be_v not_o all_o thing_n as_o they_o be_v in_o the_o beginning_n so_o say_v a_o secure_a world_n in_o the_o day_n of_o peter_n

the_o vapour_n of_o smoke_n be_v unneath_o see_v and_o therefore_o no_o marvel_n if_o they_o put_v far_o away_o the_o evil_a day_n and_o sink_v in_o their_o security_n when_o israel_n be_v full_a than_o she_o kick_v against_o the_o lord_n and_o her_o sin_n increase_v as_o the_o sign_n decrease_v till_o token_n from_o the_o lord_n have_v teach_v she_o another_o discipline_n the_o vapour_n of_o smoke_n blast_v her_o garland_n when_o it_o be_v at_o the_o green_a famine_n sword_n &_o fiery_a serpent_n break_v her_o heart_n to_o better_a obedience_n and_o the_o lord_n be_v merciful_a upon_o their_o repentance_n we_o think_v it_o go_v well_o with_o we_o when_o our_o water_n keep_v the_o course_n of_o their_o wont_a channel_n without_o inundation_n when_o the_o north_n be_v clear_a and_o
