be_v not_o he_o revenge_v out_o of_o hand_n because_o say_v the_o prophet_n he_o be_v merciful_a patient_a 103._o and_o of_o long_a sufferance_n therefore_o he_o proceed_v not_o to_o revenge_v his_o anger_n therefore_o he_o haste_v not_o to_o wreak_v himself_o on_o we_o so_o soon_o as_o we_o offend_v he_o and_o transgress_v his_o will_n but_o tarry_v and_o make_v long_a delay_n to_o see_v whether_o we_o will_v repent_v and_o return_v unto_o he_o but_o yet_o say_v david_n forasmuch_o as_o he_o be_v abuse_v for_o as_o much_o as_o you_o have_v leave_v and_o forsake_v he_o notwithstanding_o he_o be_v merciful_a notwithstanding_o he_o be_v patient_a cient_a and_o of_o long_a sufferance_n he_o have_v now_o whet_v his_o sword_n he_o have_v bend_v his_o bow_n and_o make_v it_o ready_a he_o have_v prepare_v he_o the_o weapon_n of_o death_n and_o ordain_v his_o arrow_n to_o destroy_v and_o this_o will_v he_o do_v out_o of_o hand_n he_o will_v make_v no_o long_o delay_v at_o all_o here_o must_v we_o not_o fancy_v that_o god_n will_v strike_v we_o with_o a_o sword_n of_o iron_n that_o he_o have_v a_o bow_n bend_v and_o arrow_n to_o destroy_v withal_o for_o every_o creature_n on_o the_o earth_n what_o ever_o it_o be_v be_v it_o never_o so_o vile_a never_o so_o simple_a never_o so_o weak_a and_o abject_a but_o be_v able_a at_o god_n commandment_n to_o be_v a_o instrument_n to_o plague_n and_o punish_v withal_o and_o therefore_o consider_v what_o be_v so_o weak_a as_o water_n so_o simple_a as_o fly_n so_o vile_a as_o lice_n and_o frog_n and_o yet_o it_o please_v almighty_a god_n by_o these_o weak_a by_o these_o simple_a by_o these_o vile_a thing_n to_o punish_v and_o strike_v the_o egyptian_n yea_o and_o so_o much_o thereby_o to_o plague_v they_o that_o never_o before_o they_o feel_v the_o like_a never_o erst_o they_o hear_v of_o the_o like_a punishment_n it_o please_v god_n to_o turn_v their_o water_n into_o blood_n 7._o so_o that_o in_o the_o whole_a country_n no_o water_n can_v be_v find_v to_o drink_v no_o liquor_n of_o water_n to_o refresh_v their_o body_n this_o be_v a_o great_a plague_n and_o yet_o be_v this_o wrought_v by_o want_n of_o water_n which_o be_v but_o a_o weak_a and_o simple_a creature_n a_o fly_n you_o know_v be_v a_o simple_a thing_n a_o thing_n of_o little_a strength_n and_o no_o force_n yet_o god_n so_o increase_v the_o number_n of_o they_o he_o send_v such_o a_o multitude_n of_o fly_n among_o the_o egyptian_n 8._o that_o even_o in_o the_o king_n house_n they_o fall_v upon_o what_o ever_o the_o king_n eat_v or_o drink_v fall_v upon_o his_o meat_n fall_v into_o his_o drink_n and_o so_o putrify_a and_o corrupt_v the_o same_o the_o louse_n wherewith_o god_n in_o like_a plague_v they_o fall_v not_o only_o upon_o the_o king_n and_o his_o people_n but_o upon_o their_o sheep_n their_o dren_n their_o ass_n their_o horse_n their_o mule_n and_o their_o whole_a herd_n of_o cattle_n what_o ever_o they_o be_v the_o frog_n enter_v into_o their_o house_n into_o the_o king_n palace_n into_o his_o hall_n his_o parlour_n his_o chamber_n yea_o and_o into_o his_o bed_n also_o thus_o it_o please_v god_n to_o use_v against_o the_o egyptian_n these_o simple_a these_o base_a and_o vile_a creature_n as_o his_o rod_n as_o his_o scourge_n as_o his_o sword_n of_o punisment_n every_o creature_n every_o thing_n whether_o it_o have_v life_n or_o no_o life_n when_o it_o please_v god_n to_o use_v it_o be_v his_o sword_n be_v his_o rod_n to_o strike_v withal_o the_o fire_n that_o fall_v from_o heaven_n and_o destroy_v the_o two_o famous_a city_n sodom_n and_o gomorra_n &_o the_o whole_a region_n there_o about_o be_v none_o other_o than_o the_o sword_n of_o god_n 19_o therefore_o say_v the_o prophet_n david_n 104._o the_o spirit_n of_o tempest_n do_v his_o will_n the_o thunder_n and_o lightning_n fulfil_v his_o commandment_n and_o so_o the_o same_o prophet_n here_o in_o this_o place_n now_o have_v god_n begin_v to_o strike_v now_o have_v he_o whet_v his_o sword_n &_o bend_v his_o bow_n say_v he_o now_o have_v he_o prepare_v his_o arrow_n to_o destroy_v &_o there_o be_v no_o way_n now_o to_o escape_v his_o vengeance_n no_o way_n to_o avoid_v his_o punishment_n but_o only_o this_o to_o turn_v unto_o he_o to_o run_v &_o submit_v yourselves_o whole_o to_o he_o these_o word_n david_n the_o prophet_n be_v persecute_v of_o his_o enemy_n and_o beset_v round_o about_o of_o they_o speak_v unto_o saul_n the_o proud_a king_n and_o his_o adherent_n and_o soldier_n put_v they_o in_o remembrance_n how_o they_o have_v provoke_v &_o just_o deserve_v the_o vegeance_n of_o god_n for_o persecute_v of_o his_o innocent_a soul_n and_o even_o as_o this_o prophet_n david_n speak_v &_o pronounce_v these_o word_n unto_o saul_n &_o his_o wicked_a company_n to_o reduce_v unto_o their_o memory_n the_o power_n of_o god_n and_o the_o punishment_n that_o then_o hang_v over_o their_o head_n so_o may_v we_o likewise_o well_o use_v the_o same_o in_o these_o our_o day_n first_o to_o bring_v we_o in_o remembrance_n that_o god_n be_v a_o righteous_a judge_n and_o then_o to_o consider_v how_o we_o daily_o provoke_v and_o deserve_v his_o just_a wrath_n and_o so_o at_o the_o least_o for_o fear_n of_o punishment_n to_o be_v sorry_a for_o our_o misdeed_n and_o return_v unto_o he_o for_o if_o we_o will_v not_o be_v convert_v he_o have_v whet_v his_o sword_n he_o have_v bend_v his_o bow_n prepare_v he_o the_o weapon_n of_o death_n and_o ordain_v his_o arrow_n to_o destroy_v but_o before_o we_o come_v unto_o god_n good_a brother_n before_o we_o return_v unto_o he_o we_o must_v one_o come_v unto_o another_o we_o must_v one_o turn_v to_o another_o before_o we_o be_v reconcile_v to_o

that_o god_n look_v we_o shall_v observe_v this_o be_v that_o rule_n which_o christ_n command_v we_o to_o keep_v remit_v &_o remittetur_fw-la tibi_fw-la 6._o forgive_v and_o thou_o shall_v be_v

first_o and_o reconcile_v thyself_o to_o thy_o brother_n and_o then_o come_v and_o offer_v thy_o gift_n god_n be_v content_v his_o honour_n be_v defer_v he_o be_v content_v to_o tarry_v for_o his_o

this_o be_v the_o ground_n of_o the_o atonement_n between_o god_n and_o we_o this_o be_v the_o token_n that_o christ_n be_v reconcile_v unto_o we_o if_o we_o be_v at_o one_o with_o our_o neighbour_n if_o we_o be_v reconcile_v to_o our_o christian_a brother_n 4._o for_o if_o we_o shall_v hate_v our_o brother_n who_o we_o see_v if_o we_o shall_v be_v at_o debate_n with_o our_o neighbour_n be_v

unto_o you_o that_o god_n accept_v not_o our_o sacrifice_n that_o he_o regard_v not_o our_o petition_n that_o he_o be_v not_o please_v with_o our_o prayer_n unless_o we_o be_v at_o one_o &_o please_v
