certain_a taste_n of_o his_o goodness_n untyll_o such_o time_n as_o they_o may_v have_v full_a enjoyinge_v thereof_o after_o their_o death_n 23_o even_o balaam_n himself_o which_o never_o know_v any_o thing_n of_o the_o law_n yet_o he_o fail_v not_o to_o say_v i_o wish_v my_o soul_n to_o dye_v the_o death_n of_o the_o righteous_a and_o my_o end_n to_o be_v such_o as_o they_o be_v he_o desire_v to_o join_v himself_o with_o the_o race_n of_o abraham_n and_o yet_o he_o be_v a_o wicked_a &_o refuse_v man_n and_o who_o make_v he_o to_o speak_v thus_o even_o this_o that_o he_o be_v there_o as_o upon_o the_o rack_n &_o god_n wringe_v out_o of_o he_o this_o confession_n now_o if_o balaam_n which_o be_v possess_v of_o the_o devil_n and_o give_v out_o his_o tongue_n to_o hire_v to_o curse_v the_o people_n of_o god_n have_v be_v constrain_v to_o say_v thus_o what_o shall_v we_o think_v of_o they_o that_o have_v trewlye_o profyte_v in_o the_o law_n of_o god_n but_o howsoever_o it_o be_v true_a it_o be_v that_o shall_z father_n have_v not_o so_o clear_a and_o manifest_a knowledge_n of_o the_o heavenlye_a life_n as_o we_o have_v at_o this_o day_n in_o the_o gospel_n and_o in_o deed_n the_o same_o be_v reserve_v until_o the_o come_n of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n and_o with_o good_a reason_n for_o we_o have_v a_o good_a gage_n of_o our_o life_n in_o our_o saviour_n jesus_n christ_n in_o that_o he_o be_v rise_v again_o and_o that_o it_o be_v not_o for_o himself_o alone_a but_o for_o all_o his_o body_n this_o be_v the_o full_a assurance_n that_o god_n have_v give_v in_o the_o parson_n of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n that_o we_o pass_v through_o this_o world_n to_o come_v to_o the_o life_n that_o last_v ever_o the_o ancient_a father_n come_v not_o to_o such_o degree_n they_o be_v not_o so_o avaunse_v but_o howesoever_o it_o be_v it_o be_v so_o that_o the_o taste_n which_o they_o have_v of_o the_o heavenlye_a life_n so_o suffice_v they_o that_o they_o render_v themselves_o peaseable_o to_o god_n and_o we_o read_v not_o that_o they_o be_v great_o tourment_v in_o their_o death_n as_o when_o abraham_n depart_v he_o make_v not_o lamentation_n wail_v and_o complaint_n as_o the_o king_n ezechias_n do_v but_o he_o be_v fill_v and_o satisfy_v with_o life_n say_v the_o scripture_n 25.35.49_o in_o like_a manner_n be_v it_o of_o isaac_n and_o jacob_n who_o render_v the_o last_o groan_n say_v i_o will_v put_v my_o trust_n in_o thy_o salvation_n my_o god_n though_o jesus_n christ_n have_v not_o yet_o appear_v unto_o the_o world_n yet_o jacob_n have_v in_o himself_o a_o steadfast_a and_o undoubted_a hope_n and_o make_v himself_o as_o sure_a of_o his_o salvation_n as_o if_o he_o hold_v it_o in_o his_o hand_n so_o then_o we_o see_v that_o the_o holy_a father_n be_v not_o in_o doubt_n or_o such_o mistrust_n that_o they_o do_v not_o always_o aspire_v unto_o the_o heavenly_a life_n but_o that_o it_o be_v their_o chief_a desire_n to_o attain_v thereunto_o now_o let_v we_o return_v to_o the_o king_n ezechias_n we_o must_v conclude_v that_o he_o have_v some_o special_a reason_n in_o himself_o why_o he_o so_o complain_v of_o death_n which_o we_o shall_v better_o see_v in_o the_o person_n of_o david_n david_n be_v sometime_o in_o such_o anguysh_n that_o he_o cry_v 30._o alas_o my_o god_n who_o be_v he_o that_o shall_v acknowledge_v thou_o in_o death_n and_o when_o i_o be_v a_o poor_a rot_a carrion_n what_o profit_n shall_v thou_o have_v when_o thou_o shall_v have_v bring_v i_o into_o ash_n what_o be_v it_o that_o thou_o shall_v have_v gain_v 29._o he_o make_v there_o his_o complaint_n nevertheless_o in_o the_o end_n he_o die_v peaseable_o for_o no_o man_n see_v that_o he_o be_v so_o passion_v in_o his_o depart_n but_o that_o he_o render_v himself_o mild_o into_o the_o hand_n of_o god_n how_o come_v it_o then_o to_o pass_v that_o he_o write_v thus_o it_o be_v because_o he_o conceive_v the_o wrath_n of_o god_n whether_o it_o be_v in_o sickness_n or_o in_o any_o other_o affliction_n and_o that_o be_v much_o as_n if_o the_o very_a hell_n be_v present_o set_v before_o he_o the_o affliction_n then_o that_o he_o conceyve_v be_v not_o of_o simple_a death_n but_o y_o t_o god_n give_v he_o some_o sign_n that_o he_o punish_v he_o because_o of_o his_o sin_n now_o sing_v y_o it_o we_o see_v this_o same_o disputation_n in_o the_o parson_n of_o david_n it_o be_v easy_a for_o we_o to_o conclude_v touch_v the_o king_n ezechias_n y_fw-fr t_o he_o be_v also_o grevous_o vex_v in_o his_o death_n but_o that_o be_v not_o for_o that_o he_o be_v loath_a to_o depart_v out_o of_o this_o world_n neither_o that_o he_o be_v tourment_v as_o the_o poor_a infidel_n which_o aspire_v not_o to_o a_o better_a life_n which_o be_v also_o as_o it_o be_v drown_v in_o their_o delight_n and_o bring_v themselves_o on_o sleep_v in_o such_o sort_n that_o they_o set_v nothing_o by_o the_o heavenly_a life_n we_o see_v that_o ezechias_n be_v not_o so_o strike_v down_o and_o yet_o he_o think_v that_o god_n be_v against_o he_o as_o we_o shall_v see_v yet_o more_o large_o and_o in_o deed_n it_o be_v not_o without_o cause_n that_o the_o prophet_n esay_n be_v send_v unto_o he_o for_o he_o be_v as_o a_o herald_n of_o arm_n to_o make_v he_o defiance_n and_o to_o declare_v unto_o he_o behold_v god_n be_v thy_o enemy_n thou_o must_v sustain_v his_o extreme_a rigour_n for_o thou_o haste_v offend_v he_o when_o ezechias_n hear_v that_o he_o have_v no_o regard_n to_o y_z e_z simple_a death_n by_o the_o which_o he_o must_v of_o necessity_n pass_v but_o he_o have_v a_o other_o end_n of_o consideration_n y_z t_z he_o shall_v be_v cut_v of_o from_o the_o world_n as_o a_o accurse_a creature_n as_o one_o unworthy_a who_o the_o earth_n shall_v bear_v and_o when_o god_n strike_v he_o that_o give_v a_o token_n to_o he_o that_o the_o land_n shall_v be_v make_v desolate_a for_o he_o know_v what_o shall_v be_v the_o estate_n of_o the_o people_n he_o see_v that_o all_o shall_v be_v destroy_v after_o his_o death_n if_o god_n do_v not_o remedi_fw-la it_o by_o miracle_n and_o he_o think_v thus_o my_o death_n shall_v not_o be_v only_o to_o send_v i_o into_o the_o throat_n of_o hell_n but_o it_o shall_v be_v to_o bring_v a_o general_a overflow_a over_o all_o so_o that_o in_o all_o the_o land_n there_o be_v nothing_o but_o desolation_n shall_v the_o service_n of_o god_n then_o be_v throw_v dowen_v and_o shall_v all_o this_o be_v cast_v upon_o my_o neck_n because_o i_o have_v offend_v my_o god_n alas_o and_o what_o shall_v this_o be_v let_v we_o not_o now_o think_v it_o strange_a if_o ezechias_n speak_v thus_o as_o we_o hear_v but_o let_v we_o hold_v this_o always_o that_o it_o be_v not_o the_o simple_a death_n which_o do_v affraye_v he_o so_o what_o then_o the_o wrath_n of_o god_n when_o he_o behold_v his_o sin_n and_o that_o god_n take_v away_o from_o he_o all_o savour_n of_o his_o goodness_n &_o turn_v his_o back_n unto_o he_o as_o if_o he_o have_v see_v he_o arm_v against_o he_o &_o lift_v up_o his_o arm_n as_o if_o he_o will_v bring_v he_o to_o nought_o when_o ezechias_n see_v that_o he_o be_v so_o confound_v that_o his_o mouth_n be_v stop_v &_o not_o without_o cause_n now_o this_o be_v right_n worthy_a to_o be_v note_v for_o there_o be_v many_o blockish_a person_n and_o the_o mooste_o part_n which_o fear_n death_n but_o it_o be_v not_o because_o they_o feel_v the_o curse_n of_o god_n appear_v to_o they_o it_o be_v true_a as_o we_o have_v say_v before_o that_o god_n leave_v always_o this_o point_n in_o the_o conscience_n of_o man_n but_o they_o have_v not_o all_o alike_a consideration_n thereof_o wherefore_o be_v it_o then_o that_o death_n be_v dreadful_a unto_o they_o because_o every_o one_o will_v say_v i_o desire_v to_o be_v true_o when_o they_o speak_v in_o this_o manner_n it_o be_v as_o much_o as_o if_o they_o say_v i_o will_v be_v a_o calf_n or_o a_o ass_n or_o a_o dog_n for_o the_o be_v of_o brute_n beast_n be_v in_o this_o world_n &_o the_o be_v of_o man_n where_o be_v it_o but_o in_o this_o that_o they_o be_v join_v to_o their_o god_n but_o now_o we_o be_v as_o it_o be_v in_o prison_n for_o in_o stead_n that_o this_o world_n shall_v have_v be_v unto_o we_o as_o a_o earthly_a paradise_n if_o we_o have_v continue_v in_o the_o obeidience_n of_o god_n now_o we_o be_v as_o in_o a_o strange_a country_n wherein_o we_o be_v as_o lock_v up_o and_o banish_v it_o be_v true_a that_o yet_o we_o see_v many_o time_n some_o yea_o many_o track_n of_o the_o goodness_n of_o god_n but_o how_o so_o ever_o it_o

a_o tremble_a pace_n for_o the_o word_n which_o he_o use_v do_v some_o time_n signify_v to_o go_v soft_o and_o sometime_o to_o remove_v now_o in_o effect_n he_o mean_v to_o say_v that_o he_o shall_v never_o have_v steadfast_a pace_n but_o he_o shall_v be_v so_o much_o enfeeble_v that_o he_o shall_v be_v as_o a_o man_n draw_v out_o of_o the_o ditch_n or_o as_o he_o that_o have_v a_o long_a time_n be_v sick_a ▪_o he_o do_v with_o great_a pain_n draw_v his_o leg_n after_o he_o and_o though_o he_o show_v himself_o abroad_o in_o the_o stretes_n yet_o man_n see_v well_o that_o that_o be_v all_o he_o can_v do_v &_o when_o he_o stand_v up_o he_o seem_v still_o ready_a to_o rele_n and_o stagger_v now_o see_v we_o in_o a_o sum_n what_o ezechias_n mean_v to_o say_v hereby_o we_o be_v put_v in_o remembrance_n not_o to_o think_v strange_a if_o god_n sometime_o afflict_v we_o more_o rigorous_o than_o we_o will_v for_o we_o have_v not_o sufficient_o profit_v by_o his_o rod_n untyll_o we_o be_v true_o humble_v for_o all_o our_o life_n after_o who_o be_v he_o that_o shall_v find_v this_o in_o himself_o ▪_o let_v every_o one_o now_o look_v if_o a_o month_n after_o that_o god_n have_v show_v he_o mercy_n he_o have_v reknowlege_v his_o fault_n and_o tremble_v thereat_o but_o contrariwise_o as_o i_o have_v already_o say_v we_o seek_v nothing_o but_o to_o blot_v out_o all_o remembrance_n of_o they_o for_o we_o think_v it_o to_o be_v matter_n that_o move_v melancholy_n since_o then_o we_o so_o easy_o forget_v the_o rod_n of_o god_n let_v we_o not_o marvel_v if_o after_o we_o have_v be_v once_o chastise_v he_o return_v again_o the_o second_o time_n and_o show_v himself_o so_o sharp_a that_o we_o shall_v not_o know_v where_o to_o become_v wherefore_o behold_v what_o we_o have_v to_o do●_n that_o be_v that_o during_o the_o correction_n and_o when_o we_o be_v in_o trouble_n we_o bear_v patient_o the_o rigour_n of_o god_n know_v that_o it_o be_v not_o without_o cause_n that_o he_o use_v so_o exceed_v great_a sharpness_n against_o we_o and_o that_o it_o be_v because_o he_o know_v we_o have_v need_n of_o it_o take_v this_o for_o one_o note_n and_o also_o for_o another_o note_n that_o we_o endeavour_n to_o awake_v because_o of_o the_o great_a slothfulness_n that_o be_v in_o we_o for_o we_o be_v so_o sluggishe_a and_o so_o cool_v that_o it_o be_v a_o pity_n to_o see_v let_v we_o then_o during_o the_o time_n of_o our_o affliction_n think_v upon_o all_o our_o offence_n that_o we_o may_v have_v a_o feeling_n and_o conceave_v thereof_o engrave_v even_o in_o the_o bottom_n of_o our_o heart_n &_o when_o god_n have_v deliver_v we_o let_v we_o still_o think_v upon_o it_o and_o let_v not_o the_o feel_v of_o our_o evil_n be_v only_o for_o one_o day_n or_o for_o a_o small_a space_n but_o as_o we_o pray_v god_n to_o support_v we_o and_o to_o geve_v we_o leisure_n to_o bless_v his_o name_n and_o to_o rejoice_v in_o he_o let_v we_o so_o do_v it_o that_o he_o be_v not_o compel_v continual_o to_o strike_v we_o like_o ass_n see_v our_o carelessness_n and_o the_o slowness_n that_o be_v in_o us._n let_v we_o prevente_v the_o rod_n of_o god_n unless_o we_o will_v have_v they_o always_o tie_v at_o our_o back_n and_o now_o let_v we_o note_v that_o ezechias_n tremble_v in_o such_o sort_n that_o he_o cess_v not_o to_o be_v hold_v up_o by_o the_o hand_n of_o god_n and_o to_o seek_v for_o comfort_n in_o god_n know_v well_o that_o he_o be_v merciful_a unto_o he_o but_o these_o two_o thing_n agree_v well_o that_o on_o the_o one_o side_n the_o faithful_a be_v always_o in_o care_n fear_v to_o stomble_v the_o second_o and_o third_o time_n when_o they_o have_v once_o paste_v a_o deadly_a fall_n and_o yet_o nevertheless_o they_o take_v courage_n and_o trust_n in_o god_n to_o walk_v free_o for_o as_o much_o as_o they_o know_v that_o he_o will_v never_o fail_v they_o loe_o this_o it_o be_v y_z t_z we_o have_v to_o practice_v on_o the_o one_o side_n to_o think_v upon_o our_o sin_n and_o offence_n and_o to_o be_v move_v with_o horror_n see_v that_o we_o have_v deserve_v y_o t_o god_n shall_v set_v himself_o against_o we_o and_o that_o this_o do_v so_o cut_v we_o that_o it_o make_v we_o to_o walk_v tremblyng_o &_o as_o scant_o able_a to_o go_v loe_o how_o we_o ought_v to_o be_v throw_v down_o and_o humble_v under_o the_o hand_n of_o god_n for_o there_o be_v no_o question_n hereof_o be_v to_o wild_a but_o rather_o we_o must_v know_v that_o the_o chief_a virtue_n of_o the_o faithful_a when_o god_n do_v affliet_a and_o punish_v they_o be_v to_o be_v as_o bring_v to_o naught_o &_o yet_o always_o draw_v our_o leg_n after_o we_o to_o go_v on_o our_o pace_n sith_o it_o please_v god_n to_o show_v we_o mercy_n and_o that_o we_o know_v that_o though_o we_o have_v offend_v he_o yet_o he_o will_v always_o continue_v his_o goodness_n toward_o we_o he_o will_v geve_v we_o courage_n and_o that_o therefore_o on_o the_o other_o side_n we_o become_v fresh_a again_o lo_o this_o be_v the_o sum_n that_o we_o have_v here_o to_o learn_v of_o ezechias_n after_o he_o add_v that_o the_o bitterness_n become_v to_o he_o bitter_a in_o his_o

as_o on_o the_o other_o side_n we_o see_v that_o y_o e_o thing_n which_o be_v forseen_v far_o of_o may_v be_v more_o patient_o suffer_v for_o what_o be_v the_o cause_n that_o discourage_v we_o when_o we_o be_v in_o affliction_n but_o that_o every_o one_o during_o his_o prosperity_n make_v himself_o believe_v that_o all_o shall_v go_v well_o if_o a_o man_n do_v think_v of_o the_o death_n of_o his_o father_n or_o of_o his_o wife_n or_o of_o his_o child_n if_o he_o do_v think_v that_o his_o own_o life_n be_v subject_a to_o calamity_n it_o be_v certain_a that_o he_o will_v be_v prepare_v with_o defence_n against_o all_o temtation_n so_o as_o he_o will_v not_o be_v find_v so_o amaze_v when_o they_o come_v upon_o he_o but_o because_o every_o man_n deceive_v himself_o in_o vain_a hope_n that_o be_v it_o that_o trouble_v we_o out_o of_o measure_n when_o our_o lord_n send_v any_o adversity_n now_o ezechias_n confess_v that_o it_o be_v so_o chance_v unto_o he_o and_o for_o this_o cause_n he_o say_v that_o his_o grief_n have_v be_v so_o much_o the_o more_o bitter_a for_o that_o it_o happen_v unto_o he_o in_o his_o prosperity_n for_o we_o have_v see_v here_o before_o how_o god_n afflict_v
