that_o stone_n be_v a_o adamant_n stone_n whereby_o i_o do_v as_o well_o give_v god_n thanks_n for_o his_o great_a goodness_n in_o send_v i_o such_o a_o mean_a to_o find_v my_o needful_a needle_n as_o

so_o now_o since_o it_o be_v very_o plain_a and_o true_a for_o though_o by_o the_o strength_n of_o iron_n the_o adamant_n stone_n may_v be_v break_v whereby_o he_o just_o may_v be_v call_v the_o strong_a and_o the_o adamant_n the_o weak_a yet_o the_o adamant_n stone_n be_v the_o weak_a by_o his_o nature_n draw_v iron_n the_o strong_a unto_o he_o as_o daily_a experience_n do_v teach_v now_o i_o pray_v you_o let_v i_o hear_v the_o third_o siuqila_n you_o shall_v which_o if_o you_o mark_v well_o be_v as_o strange_a and_o true_a as_o the_o rest_n a_o thing_n there_o be_v that_o hunger_n

die_v else_o present_o omen_n if_o it_o be_v as_o true_a as_o it_o be_v strange_a then_o be_v it_o well_o worthy_a to_o be_v note_v if_o every_o one_o of_o your_o country_n that_o of_o they_o self_n can_v not_o find_v out_o the_o true_a meaning_n of_o it_o in_o a_o month_n shall_v fast_a but_o a_o week_n or_o else_o bestow_v their_o one_o year_n vain_a and_o prodigal_a expense_n on_o such_o

that_o go_v pecork_o shall_v th●n_o go_v derent_o many_o that_o live_v riotous_o shall_v then_o live_v moderate_o and_o many_o that_o die_v short_o by_o surffete_n shall_v live_v long_o with_o

of_o his_o sleep_n for_o he_o must_v needs_o be_v a_o very_a costly_a fellow_n to_o keep_v that_o must_v be_v always_o a_o feed_n if_o he_o never_o stint_v eat_v i_o think_v than_o he_o will_v out_o

devise_v it_o siuqila_n i_o will_v not_o let_v to_o do_v that_o as_o i_o be_v travel_v in_o the_o wild_a wilderness_n be_v very_o hungry_a i_o sudden_o espy_v a_o neste_a of_o young_a bird_n which_o be_v almost_o ready_a to_o fly_v omen_n but_o how_o do_v you_o for_o fire_n to_o roast_n they_o for_o fire_n be_v there_o hard_a to_o get_v siuqila_n nay_o as_o i_o use_v the_o matter_n it_o be_v hard_a to_o find_v food_n than_o to_o get_v fire_n i_o never_o go_v without_o a_o tinder_n box_n especial_o when_o i_o travel_v far_o wherein_o i_o have_v a_o flint_n stone_n a_o steel_n &_o burn_a

linte_n do_v take_v hold_n of_o the_o same_o and_o then_o i_o do_v therein_o light_a a_o match_n dip_v in_o brimstone_n whereby_o have_v wood_n there_o enough_o at_o hand_n i_o make_v a_o fire_n and_o so_o i_o roast_v the_o bird_n and_o feed_v my_o hungrye_a maw_n therewith_o and_o a●ter_v i_o have_v give_v god_n thanks_n for_o thus_o feed_n i_o i_o fall_v into_o a_o great_a admiration_n of_o this_o marvellous_a work_n of_o god_n and_o consider_v how_o strange_a a_o thing_n it_o be_v that_o fire_n the_o most_o hot_a element_n of_o all_o other_o shall_v be_v include_v in_o earth_n be_v a_o cold_a element_n and_o further_o in_o this_o deep_a cogitation_n i_o consider_v consider_v a_o thing_n to_o be_v consider_v that_o god_n have_v as_o great_a a_o respect_n to_o the_o poor_a as_o to_o the_o rich_a for_o fire_n be_v such_o a_o thing_n that_o no_o man_n alive_a may_v want_v and_o god_n of_o his_o infinite_a goodness_n have_v so_o order_v the_o matter_n that_o the_o scotfree_a can_v not_o defraud_v the_o poor_a of_o fire_n that_o be_v at_o liberty_n for_o in_o every_o little_a flint_n stone_n it_o be_v to_o be_v find_v yea_o and_o there_o be_v enough_o in_o one_o little_a stone_n for_o a_o whole_a realm_n which_o be_v a_o wonderful_a simile_n in_o the_o deep_a philosophy_n that_o be_v omen_n this_o be_v such_o a_o wonderful_a work_n of_o god_n and_o so_o necessary_a for_o all_o man_n that_o thousand_o that_o daily_o see_v the_o same_o and_o have_v daily_o a_o marvelous_a commodity_n thereby_o do_v neither_o thank_v god_n therefore_o nor_o once_o consider_v god_n miraculous_a work_n therein_o and_o as_o god_n have_v deal_v with_o the_o poor_a for_o fire_n so_o he_o have_v do_v with_o all_o the_o other_o three_o element_n well_o ma●ke_v well_o for_o the_o rich_a can_v defraud_v the_o poor_a of_o they_o nor_o the_o envious_a person_n can_v take_v they_o from_o his_o foe_n as_o long_o as_o they_o be_v at_o liberty_n for_o they_o be_v every_o where_o to_o be_v have_v well_o may_v the_o scotfree_a lock_n the_o poor_a from_o they_o but_o they_o can_v lock_v they_o from_o the_o poor_a for_o as_o fire_n be_v common_a every_o where_n and_o be_v to_o be_v find_v in_o every_o flint_n stone_n so_o the_o air_n which_o be_v the_o next_o element_n to_o fire_n be_v in_o every_o place_n and_o be_v common_a both_o to_o man_n and_o beast_n and_o the_o water_n be_v so_o abundant_a both_o in_o river_n and_o spring_n every_o where_o that_o the_o rich_a can_v waste_v it_o the_o poor_a can_v consume_v it_o nor_o all_o the_o beast_n on_o the_o earth_n can_v devour_v it_o and_o as_o for_o the_o earth_n it_o be_v the_o only_a flower_n for_o all_o man_n and_o beast_n to_o tread_v on_o so_o that_o in_o this_o point_n though_o it_o be_v little_o regard_v god_n be_v not_o only_o high_o to_o be_v thank_v but_o also_o to_o be_v marvellous_o magnify_v that_o he_o have_v so_o lovinglye_o and_o merciful_o place_v and_o distribute_v these_o his_o element_n which_o be_v fire_n air_n water_n and_o earth_n without_o which_o we_o can_v live_v that_o the_o mighty_a emperor_n on_o the_o earth_n nor_o the_o cruel_a tyrant_n under_o the_o sun_n can_v keep_v nor_o lock_v any_o one_o of_o they_o from_o the_o poor_a wretch_n in_o the_o world_n well_o they_o may_v lock_v he_o from_o they_o as_o be_v say_v but_o they_o can_v lock_v they_o from_o he_o siuqila_n oh_o if_o we_o will_v consider_v these_o god_n great_a gift_n that_o he_o most_o liberal_o have_v bestow_v on_o the_o poor_a alliance_n a_o marvelous_a immediate_a alliance_n aswell_o as_o on_o the_o rich_a we_o shall_v love_v he_o better_o than_o we_o do_v but_o mark_v what_o a_o marvelous_a knit_n or_o combynation_n yea_o &_o immediate_a alliance_n one_o element_n have_v with_o
