they_o be_v but_o as_o moses_n himself_o have_v a_o veil_n over_o his_o face_n so_o moses_n his_o word_n have_v a_o veil_n over_o their_o meaning_n and_o by_o this_o mean_n blindness_n come_v upon_o israel_n for_o they_o take_v that_o for_o their_o journey_n end_v which_o moses_n intend_v but_o for_o a_o bait_v place_n he_o allow_v they_o liberal_a bait_n at_o first_o to_o make_v they_o the_o more_o cheerful_o go_v on_o their_o journey_n but_o they_o like_o foolish_a traveler_n that_o make_v a_o dwell_n of_o their_o inn_n take_v such_o pleasure_n in_o their_o bait_n that_o they_o never_o once_o think_v of_o go_v any_o further_o 20.25_o as_o therefore_o god_n say_v of_o the_o ceremony_n he_o appoint_v to_o the_o jew_n that_o he_o have_v give_v they_o statute_n that_o be_v not_o good_a not_o good_a indeed_o to_o they_o that_o understand_v they_o not_o nor_o can_v observe_v they_o so_o we_o may_v perhaps_o say_v of_o these_o bait_n that_o god_n have_v give_v they_o blessing_n that_o be_v not_o good_a not_o good_a indeed_o to_o they_o that_o understand_v they_o not_o nor_o can_v tell_v how_o to_o use_v they_o but_o now_o the_o veil_n be_v lay_v aside_o the_o bait_n clean_o take_v away_o and_o those_o blessing_n of_o moses_n remove_v a_o form_n low_o for_o they_o be_v to_o they_o the_o very_a face_n of_o the_o promise_n but_o be_v to_o we_o only_o the_o backepart_v they_o be_v to_o they_o as_o the_o first_o fruit_n but_o be_v to_o we_o as_o only_a glean_n after_o the_o vintage_n and_o therefore_o though_o david_n in_o the_o old_a testament_n never_o see_v the_o 37.25_o righteous_a forsake_v nor_o their_o seed_n beg_v their_o bread_n yet_o christ_n in_o the_o new_a testament_n can_v tell_v we_o of_o one_o lazarus_n who_o for_o all_o his_o be_v righteous_a be_v fain_o to_o lie_v beg_v his_o bread_n at_o dives_n gate_n god_n in_o his_o goodness_n be_v willing_a to_o try_v always_o to_o see_v if_o any_o way_n he_o can_v bring_v we_o to_o goodness_n he_o allow_v liberal_a bait_n at_o first_o to_o make_v they_o the_o more_o cheerful_o go_v on_o their_o journey_n that_o succeed_v not_o he_o have_v take_v away_o those_o bayting_n now_o to_o ma●e_n we_o the_o more_o intentive_a to_o our_o journey_n end_n those_o blessing_n be_v promise_v by_o the_o mouth_n of_o moses_n a_o servant_n our_o blessing_n be_v promise_v by_o the_o mouth_n of_o christ_n a_o son_n they_o trust_v to_o the_o blessing_n promise_v to_o the_o person_n of_o abraham_n we_o trust_v to_o the_o blessing_n promise_v to_o the_o seed_n of_o abraham_n as_o it_o be_v say_v and_o in_o thy_o seed_n shall_v all_o the_o nation_n of_o the_o earth_n be_v bless_v this_o be_v that_o seed_n by_o virtue_n whereof_o we_o stand_v here_o as_o god_n child_n and_o have_v the_o honour_n to_o call_v

by_o the_o word_n of_o christ_n to_o the_o thief_n on_o the_o cross_n this_o day_n thou_o shall_v be_v with_o i_o in_o paradise_n that_o we_o can_v never_o hope_v to_o have_v a_o paradise_n here_o on_o earth_n any_o more_o and_o now_o o_o my_o soul_n see_v thou_o dwell_v in_o a_o house_n who_o window_n be_v make_v to_o look_v upward_o make_v use_n of_o those_o light_n and_o afford_v not_o the_o earth_n so_o much_o as_o a_o look_n but_o stand_v gaze_v to_o see_v christ_n ascend_v into_o heaven_n whither_o he_o be_v go_v not_o only_o to_o take_v possession_n himself_o but_o to_o 14.3_o provide_v a_o place_n for_o thou_o in_o that_o inheritance_n and_o give_v not_o over_o gaze_v until_o a_o angel_n assure_v thou_o that_o this_o jesus_n which_o be_v take_v up_o from_o you_o shall_v so_o come_v as_o you_o have_v see_v he_o go_v into_o heaven_n and_o till_o then_o possess_v thyself_o in_o patience_n and_o let_v these_o meditation_n be_v thy_o anchor_n that_o if_o thou_o die_v in_o thy_o youth_n thou_o do_v but_o go_v the_o soon_o to_o god_n that_o thou_o may_v be_v the_o long_o with_o he_o if_o thou_o die_v for_o hunger_n thou_o do_v but_o go_v fast_v to_o god_n that_o thou_o may_v have_v the_o better_a stomach_n to_o the_o heavenly_a banquet_n if_o thou_o starve_v for_o want_v of_o clothes_n thou_o do_v but_o go_v naked_a to_o god_n that_o thou_o may_v be_v the_o

shearer_n 13.7_o thou_o may_v follow_v the_o lamb_n wheresoever_o he_o go_v and_o see_v thou_o desire_v to_o be_v a_o lazarus_n in_o abraham_n bosom_n thou_o must_v first_o be_v content_v to_o be_v a_o lazarus_n at_o dives_n gate_n and_o as_o thou_o tremble_v to_o think_v of_o be_v a_o dive_v in_o hell_n to_o want_v a_o cup_n of_o water_n to_o cool_v thy_o tongue_n so_o thou_o may_v tremble_v as_o much_o to_o be_v a_o dives_n on_o earth_n to_o fare_v delicious_o every_o day_n and_o as_o for_o the_o fawn_a pleasure_n of_o the_o world_n consider_v the_o fearful_a judgement_n that_o be_v
