truth_n will_v be_v soon_o find_v out_o in_o a_o word_n the_o truth_n of_o our_o religion_n appear_v to_o we_o in_o so_o many_o conspicuous_a character_n especial_o after_o the_o noble_a and_o worthy_a endeavour_n of_o so_o many_o of_o the_o light_n of_o this_o church_n who_o have_v propose_v all_o the_o point_n in_o dispute_n to_o the_o world_n with_o advantage_n beyond_o any_o thing_n that_o have_v appear_v ever_o since_o the_o first_o beginning_n of_o those_o contest_v after_o all_o this_o i_o say_v we_o must_v conclude_v that_o this_o be_v the_o lord_n be_v do_v since_o a_o work_n that_o be_v so_o dear_a to_o he_o seem_v now_o to_o be_v again_o receive_v into_o his_o protection_n in_o so_o signal_n a_o manner_n after_o he_o have_v seem_v to_o hide_v himself_o from_o it_o

manner_n the_o work_n of_o god._n for_o the_o mind_n of_o man_n be_v a_o free_a agent_n it_o be_v less_o accountable_a how_o vast_a multitude_n shall_v come_v all_o under_o the_o same_o impression_n unless_o god_n do_v by_o those_o secret_a and_o undiscernible_a method_n of_o his_o wisdom_n give_v they_o such_o direction_n this_o psalm_n seem_v to_o be_v pen_v upon_o the_o make_n up_o of_o that_o breach_n that_o be_v between_o the_o house_n of_o david_n and_o the_o house_n of_o saul_n all_o israel_n follow_v the_o latter_a while_o only_o the_o tribe_n of_o judah_n adhere_v to_o the_o former_a

better_a to_o trust_v in_o the_o lord_n than_o to_o put_v confidence_n in_o prince_n either_o numerous_a army_n or_o wise_a council_n the_o reign_n of_o saul_n and_o the_o charm_n that_o be_v in_o jonathan_n have_v no_o doubt_n give_v the_o family_n a_o great_a root_n but_o the_o divine_a designation_n that_o be_v upon_o david_n have_v break_v through_o all_o that_o and_o have_v turn_v the_o heart_n of_o the_o whole_a nation_n as_o one_o man_n to_o he_o david_n have_v see_v a_o formidable_a opposition_n in_o his_o way_n and_o he_o himself_o have_v pass_v through_o great_a and_o threaten_a

to_o say_v this_o be_v the_o lord_n do_v i_o know_v how_o dangerous_a and_o deceitful_a a_o argument_n this_o form_n providence_n will_v ever_o seem_v to_o be_v and_o therefore_o i_o will_v touch_v it_o with_o that_o caution_n which_o be_v requisite_a it_o be_v certain_a that_o god_n for_o the_o punish_n of_o nation_n give_v sometime_o such_o a_o torrent_n of_o success_n to_o those_o who_o be_v the_o instrument_n of_o their_o correction_n that_o this_o may_v be_v rather_o a_o mark_n of_o his_o displeasure_n against_o those_o who_o be_v to_o be_v bring_v low_a than_o of_o his_o favour_v those_o who_o be_v lift_v up_o there_o be_v also_o such_o mystery_n in_o the_o whole_a conduct_n of_o the_o world_n that_o though_o our_o partiality_n make_v we_o apt_a to_o magnify_v all_o that_o we_o like_v yet_o if_o we_o carry_v it_o too_o far_o we_o will_v be_v in_o danger_n to_o be_v often_o out_o of_o countenance_n when_o the_o same_o argument_n turn_v against_o we_o therefore_o before_o we_o can_v make_v any_o comment_n on_o so_o doubtful_a a_o text_n we_o must_v be_v first_o sure_a that_o the_o groundwork_n be_v well_o lay_v and_o that_o both_o the_o cause_n itself_o and_o the_o mean_v use_v to_o advance_v it_o be_v good_a but_o when_o we_o be_v get_v over_o that_o and_o be_v satisfy_v both_o in_o the_o one_o and_o the_o other_o than_o we_o can_v hardly_o forbear_v to_o look_v on_o a_o chain_n of_o unlooked_a for_o and_o unaccountable_a providence_n without_o a_o most_o sensible_a joy._n i_o will_v not_o build_v too_o much_o on_o the_o character_n that_o have_v appear_v in_o the_o insensible_a part_n of_o the_o creation_n i_o mean_v the_o wind_n and_o weather_n for_o one_o do_v not_o know_v how_o far_o those_o have_v be_v the_o effect_n of_o the_o natural_a series_n of_o thing_n yet_o one_o cross_a wind_n which_o seem_v design_v only_o to_o make_v we_o apprehend_v the_o hand_n of_o heaven_n without_o suffer_v much_o by_o it_o and_o without_o lose_v above_o one_o man_n in_o it_o and_o another_o strong_a and_o prosperon_n gale_n which_o both_o preserve_v we_o from_o those_o who_o be_v appoint_v to_o wait_v for_o we_o and_o bring_v we_o so_o near_o
