of_o their_o name_n but_o howsoever_o the_o roman_a gentile_n do_v ordain_v it_o be_v plain_a that_o the_o ancient_a jew_n from_o the_o beginning_n give_v great_a respect_n to_o name_n from_o the_o

as_o in_o genesis_n be_v he_o not_o just_o call_v jacob_n 36._o for_o he_o have_v now_o deceive_v i_o these_o two_o time_n and_o in_o samuel_n 25._o nabal_n be_v his_o name_n and_o folly_n be_v with_o

will_v observe_v the_o care_n be_v have_v for_o the_o give_v of_o name_n in_o the_o old_a law_n yea_o and_o from_o the_o begin_n of_o the_o world_n when_o man_n be_v most_o industrious_a he_o shall_v easy_o out_o of_o the_o very_a name_n almost_o of_o every_o particular_a man_n or_o person_n read_v his_o disposition_n and_o the_o whole_a story_n of_o his_o life_n they_o be_v so_o full_a of_o prophetical_a mystery_n it_o seem_v then_o both_o by_o profane_a and_o divine_a observation_n that_o name_n both_o dignify_v the_o person_n and_o express_v the_o quality_n wherefore_o we_o must_v think_v that_o woman_n in_o the_o make_n of_o who_o god_n express_v so_o much_o art_n can_v also_o want_v a_o name_n of_o as_o great_a excellency_n to_o adorn_v she_o and_o of_o as_o virtuous_a signification_n to_o express_v she_o wherefore_o in_o discourse_v this_o ornament_n of_o name_n i_o will_v observe_v but_o these_o three_o branch_n and_o that_o which_o shall_v natural_o spread_v itself_o from_o they_o first_o who_o give_v the_o name_n name_n second_o when_o it_o be_v give_v three_o what_o it_o be_v all_o which_o though_o they_o seem_v in_o particular_a to_o adorn_v and_o commend_v the_o first_o woman_n only_o upon_o who_o they_o be_v bestow_v personal_o and_o at_o the_o first_o yet_o as_o the_o ointment_n that_o be_v pour_v on_o aaron_n head_n go_v down_o to_o the_o skirt_n of_o his_o garment_n and_o as_o the_o first_o name_n and_o nature_n which_o be_v give_v to_o the_o first_o creature_n of_o heaven_n and_o earth_n yea_o and_o to_o man_n do_v still_o continue_v unto_o all_o their_o kind_n unto_o this_o day_n so_o all_o those_o name_n disposition_n office_n and_o honour_n impose_v on_o the_o first_o woman_n in_o her_o creation_n do_v still_o descend_v as_o hereditary_a glory_n unto_o all_o her_o daughter_n unto_o this_o day_n first_o therefore_o to_o begin_v with_o the_o person_n that_o give_v the_o name_n it_o be_v not_o a_o woman_n who_o may_v perchance_o have_v favour_v she_o own_o sex_n but_o it_o be_v adam_n the_o man_n himself_o that_o you_o may_v see_v there_o be_v no_o partiality_n to_o hinder_v the_o honour_n it_o give_v she_o for_o have_v he_o find_v any_o evil_n in_o her_o nature_n or_o espy_v the_o least_o fault_n or_o inconvenience_n in_o her_o disposition_n it_o be_v likely_a he_o will_v have_v leave_v it_o in_o her_o name_n perpetual_o &_o give_v she_o such_o a_o one_o as_o shall_v have_v express_v some_o such_o vice_n as_o man_n do_v at_o this_o day_n with_o singular_a delight_n lay_v on_o all_o
