say_v when_o with_o grief_n and_o sorrow_n we_o think_v of_o these_o miscarriage_n we_o can_v but_o be_v comfort_v to_o remember_v withal_o that_o christ_n spirit_n be_v clean_o contrary_a to_o the_o spirit_n of_o angry_a and_o revengeful_a man_n as_o have_v appear_v by_o the_o end_n of_o his_o come_n and_o this_o passage_n with_o his_o disciple_n it_o be_v a_o great_a comfort_n to_o the_o syrian_a king_n and_o his_o noble_n when_o they_o be_v in_o the_o king_n of_o israel_n danger_n to_o remember_v that_o the_o king_n of_o israel_n be_v merciful_a king_n so_o may_v it_o be_v to_o we_o be_v in_o christ_n danger_n to_o consider_v that_o he_o be_v a_o prince_n of_o a_o merciful_a spirit_n only_o let_v we_o be_v careful_a not_o to_o abuse_v his_o goodness_n in_o after_o time_n and_o doubt_v not_o but_o we_o shall_v taste_v of_o the_o sweetness_n of_o his_o spirit_n not_o withstand_v what_o be_v past_a 2._o for_o instruction_n and_o information_n that_o we_o do_v not_o henceforth_o molest_v and_o grieve_v the_o spirit_n of_o christ_n with_o such_o unsuitable_a motion_n as_o the_o disciple_n here_o do_v and_o as_o we_o sometime_o use_v to_o do_v you_o know_v it_o be_v the_o condition_n of_o many_o a_o man_n if_o he_o be_v but_o cross_v in_o his_o way_n and_o vex_v by_o a_o enemy_n especial_o unjust_o present_o he_o be_v ready_a to_o desire_v that_o ruin_n and_o destruction_n may_v fall_v upon_o he_o and_o perhaps_o by_o prayer_n or_o imprecation_n be_v bold_a to_o request_v christ_n aid_n in_o the_o business_n nay_o such_o be_v the_o weakness_n of_o some_o that_o if_o any_o man_n or_o creature_n dog_n or_o horse_n or_o hawk_v offend_v they_o they_o will_v curse_v the_o same_o and_o call_v upon_o the_o name_n of_o god_n and_o christ_n to_o send_v some_o judgement_n from_o heaven_n upon_o it_o to_o join_v with_o they_o in_o do_v a_o mischief_n well_o i_o say_v we_o shall_v never_o do_v thus_o never_o shall_v we_o make_v any_o revengeful_a

between_o the_o former_a time_n and_o these_o not_o in_o respect_n of_o time_n itself_o for_o that_o be_v always_o the_o same_o but_o in_o respect_n of_o a_o new_a spirit_n which_o christ_n by_o his_o

in_o their_o language_n will_v attribute_v it_o to_o the_o spirit_n of_o the_o time_n but_o indeed_o such_o as_o the_o spirit_n and_o condition_n of_o man_n be_v such_o be_v the_o time_n for_o man_n
