man_n not_o instruct_v in_o the_o way_n of_o god_n will_v repine_v now_o it_o be_v a_o easy_a answer_n to_o say_v that_o god_n do_v thus_o peremptory_o deal_v with_o saul_n because_o it_o be_v his_o

that_o hover_v betwixt_o heathenism_n and_o christianity_n to_o fall_v quite_o from_o we_o whereas_o we_o be_v bind_v by_o the_o apostle_n rule_v to_o give_v no_o offence_n not_o only_o to_o the_o

to_o be_v elect_v king_n his_o sin_n be_v the_o meritorious_a cause_n of_o his_o rejection_n but_o what_o sin_n in_o particular_a be_v not_o so_o apparent_a saul_n as_o some_o ancient_a interpreter_n observe_v be_v once_o little_a in_o his_o own_o eye_n and_o then_o he_o be_v a_o great_a man_n in_o god_n sight_n but_o he_o grow_v great_a exceed_o great_a in_o his_o own_o eye_n and_o the_o great_a he_o thus_o grow_v the_o more_o he_o wane_v in_o god_n favour_n who_o eternal_a will_n and_o pleasure_n be_v to_o give_v grace_n unto_o the_o meek_a and_o humble_a and_o to_o resist_v and_o bring_v down_o the_o proud_a all_o this_o be_v true_a but_o too_o general_a to_o give_v satisfaction_n to_o the_o doubt_v propose_v for_o god_n do_v never_o so_o peremptory_o reject_v any_o lawful_a prince_n as_o he_o do_v saul_n without_o hope_n of_o repentance_n or_o reverse_v the_o sentence_n denounce_v against_o he_o unless_o it_o be_v for_o some_o excessive_a multitude_n or_o full_a measure_n of_o
