that_o we_o hold_v no_o way_n although_o we_o think_v all_o to_o the_o contrary_n but_o we_o be_v to_o consider_v why_o he_o especial_o speak_v here_o of_o a_o young_a man_n for_o we_o be_v sure_a that_o god_n have_v give_v his_o law_n aswell_o for_o the_o great_a as_o the_o small_a for_o the_o old_a as_o the_o young_a that_o when_o we_o shall_v begin_v to_o be_v teach_v it_o even_o from_o our_o youth_n we_o must_v hold_v &_o continue_v it_o to_o the_o grave_n wherefore_o then_o do_v david_n strain_v this_o doctrine_n of_o the_o law_n too_o young_a man_n it_o be_v not_o for_o that_o it_o reach_v not_o unto_o the_o age_a but_o there_o be_v two_o reason_n why_o he_o so_o speak_v we_o know_v the_o hot_a affection_n that_o be_v in_o youth_n and_o that_o there_o be_v such_o a_o heat_n in_o we_o as_o that_o it_o seem_v it_o can_v no_o way_n be_v keep_v in_o and_o because_o it_o be_v a_o hard_a matter_n too_o repress_v the_o hot_a and_o exceed_a boil_a affection_n of_o youngman_n david_n especial_o show_v that_o the_o word_n of_o god_n be_v the_o best_a remedy_n to_o repress_v the_o same_o as_o if_o he_o shall_v have_v say_v it_o be_v very_o true_a that_o young_a man_n be_v recheles_a and_o do_v err_v yea_o like_v unto_o wild_a beast_n which_o cast_v no_o doubt_n so_o hot_a and_o furious_a as_o that_o it_o be_v almost_o impossible_a to_o bring_v they_o to_o any_o good_a pass_n or_o yet_o to_o restrain_v they_o for_o when_o we_o think_v to_o have_v sure_a hold_n on_o they_o then_o be_v they_o far_a off_o but_o if_o they_o shall_v be_v advise_v and_o counsel_v to_o be_v order_v and_o govern_v by_o god_n no_o doubt_n of_o it_o they_o will_v be_v great_o daunt_v and_o although_o their_o passion_n and_o affection_n do_v great_o exceed_v yet_o shall_v a_o man_n see_v in_o they_o some_o modesty_n and_o a_o quiet_a and_o courteous_a behaviour_n the_o mischief_n than_o be_v that_o young_a man_n will_v not_o be_v subject_a to_o god_n for_o if_o they_o will_v they_o shall_v find_v a_o good_a mean_a in_o his_o word_n yea_o and_o the_o same_o very_a sufficient_a to_o remedy_v all_o their_o vice_n and_o it_o tend_v to_o this_o end_n to_o declare_v unto_o we_o what_o virtue_n be_v in_o the_o word_n of_o god_n even_o to_o suppress_v the_o most_o outrageous_a passion_n that_o may_v possible_o be_v within_o us._n and_o thus_o much_o for_o the_o first_o point_n the_o second_o reason_n be_v that_o david_n his_o meaning_n be_v chief_o to_o show_v unto_o the_o young_a sort_n that_o they_o have_v great_a need_n to_o be_v hold_v short_a for_o otherwise_o they_o will_v exceed_v more_o &_o more_o in_o all_o mischief_n for_o their_o nature_n be_v the_o rather_o more_o &_o more_o incline_v to_o evil_a because_o it_o have_v little_a advice_n and_o small_a wisdom_n his_o mind_n therefore_o be_v to_o advertise_v they_o of_o this_o necessity_n because_o they_o shall_v be_v more_o careful_a to_o bestow_v their_o study_n upon_o the_o word_n of_o god_n and_o to_o be_v brief_a his_o meaning_n be_v to_o advertise_v the_o whole_a world_n in_o general_n that_o we_o ought_v betimes_o to_o enter_v into_o the_o school_n of_o god_n if_o we_o will_v be_v teach_v according_o to_o his_o will_n we_o know_v what_o solomon_n say_v in_o the_o book_n of_o ecclesiastes_n that_o we_o must_v not_o tarry_v until_o we_o come_v to_o old_a wear_v year_n 12.2_o eccl._n 12.2_o &_o then_o to_o remember_v god_n &_o think_v upon_o he_o but_o that_o we_o shall_v begin_v so_o soon_o as_o god_n have_v give_v we_o wit_n and_o discretion_n and_o to_o continue_v it_o unto_o the_o end_n loe_o here_o a_o doctrine_n which_o ought_v thorough_o to_o be_v mark_v of_o we_o for_o we_o see_v from_o whence_o the_o springhead_n of_o all_o the_o excess_n and_o wantonness_n which_o do_v now_o reign_v and_o have_v in_o all_o age_n reign_v in_o the_o world_n come_v because_o that_o god_n be_v not_o obey_v for_o if_o that_o be_v so_o we_o shall_v have_v a_o bridle_n to_o keep_v we_o in_o awe_n and_o in_o good_a order_n so_o that_o we_o will_v suffer_v ourselves_o to_o be_v order_v by_o the_o doctrine_n which_o be_v contain_v in_o the_o holy_a scripture_n if_o we_o they_o will_v humble_v ourselves_o and_o be_v subject_a to_o god_n as_o to_o our_o master_n all_o thing_n shall_v be_v aswell_o direct_v as_o we_o can_v possible_o wish_v but_o why_o do_v we_o not_o so_o the_o world_n forsooth_o will_v not_o obey_v god_n as_o become_v it_o neither_o will_v it_o he_o bring_v to_o this_o reason_n behold_v then_o the_o cause_n why_o we_o see_v all_o thing_n so_o confuse_v as_o they_o be_v so_o it_o be_v that_o we_o be_v altogether_o inexcusable_a see_v that_o our_o god_n so_o offer_v himself_o unto_o we_o &_o declare_v unto_o we_o that_o if_o we_o will_v follow_v his_o word_n that_o all_o thing_n shall_v go_v well_o with_o we_o that_o our_o way_n shall_v be_v pure_a and_o clean_a and_o that_o our_o life_n shall_v be_v true_a perfectness_n itself_o and_o when_o god_n give_v such_o a_o testimony_n unto_o his_o law_n all_o mouth_n must_v be_v stop_v and_o we_o must_v be_v cast_v down_o headlong_o when_o as_o we_o know_v that_o we_o thus_o rebel_v against_o our_o god_n who_o be_v always_o ready_a truedy_n to_o guide_v us._n and_o thus_o much_o for_o this_o moreover_o if_o our_o affection_n be_v so_o contrary_a that_o our_o lust_n &_o affection_n be_v like_o wild_a beast_n that_o we_o can_v repress_v they_o let_v we_o know_v that_o our_o god_n will_v give_v power_n and_o strength_n to_o his_o word_n that_o we_o may_v be_v join_v with_o he_o if_o so_o be_v that_o we_o will_v direct_v ourselves_o to_o that_o mark_n and_o to_o prove_v it_o to_o be_v so_o he_o here_o speak_v especial_o of_o the_o corruption_n of_o youth_n which_o as_o i_o have_v already_o declare_v be_v more_o excessive_a and_o disorder_a than_o they_o be_v in_o the_o age_a but_o so_o it_o be_v that_o both_o great_a and_o small_a might_n very_o well_o be_v bring_v to_o this_o pass_n to_o suppress_v their_o inordinate_a affection_n and_o lust_n if_o so_o be_v they_o will_v give_v that_o honour_n to_o god_n which_o unto_o he_o appertain_v that_o be_v if_o they_o will_v follow_v his_o word_n furthermore_o we_o be_v here_o to_o note_v the_o exhortation_n which_o we_o have_v already_o touch_v to_o wit_n that_o it_o be_v david_n his_o meaning_n to_o manifest_v unto_o we_o that_o we_o ought_v betimes_o to_o be_v god_n scholar_n and_o to_o suffer_v he_o to_o rule_v we_o and_o to_o continue_v and_o hold_v we_o in_o this_o study_n all_o the_o day_n of_o our_o life_n let_v we_o not_o then_o tarry_v until_o we_o come_v to_o the_o grave_n brink_n to_o become_v wise_a in_o this_o behalf_n as_o we_o see_v these_o scorner_n which_o make_v themselves_o merry_a and_o outrage_n in_o mock_v of_o god_n say_v well_o sir_n we_o shall_v have_v leisure_n to_o repent_v time_n enough_o for_o if_o we_o may_v have_v but_o one_o hearty_a sigh_n care_v away_o since_o than_o this_o be_v most_o sure_a that_o it_o be_v satan_n which_o egg_v they_o thus_o greevous_o to_o abuse_v the_o patience_n of_o god_n let_v we_o bew_v be_v that_o we_o be_v not_o so_o bewitch_v but_o let_v we_o follow_v that_o which_o be_v here_o set_v down_o to_o weet_v that_o we_o may_v be_v god_n scholar_n even_o from_o our_o youth_n and_o above_o all_o thing_n let_v we_o consider_v that_o young_a man_n have_v here_o a_o special_a lesson_n to_o learn_v as_o before_o have_v be_v touch_v for_o david_n here_o declare_v unto_o they_o 73.22_o psal_n 73.22_o that_o they_o have_v a_o great_a deal_n more_o need_n to_o be_v restrain_v they_o any_o of_o the_o rest_n it_o be_v very_o true_a that_o we_o be_v before_o god_n always_o even_o as_o young_a child_n yea_o i_o say_v that_o the_o elder_a sort_n of_o great_a experience_n and_o such_o as_o appear_v grave_a and_o wise_a to_o the_o world_n be_v without_o all_o doubt_n before_o the_o majesty_n of_o god_n very_a fool_n and_o idiote_n we_o hear_v also_o what_o david_n confess_v of_o himself_o in_o a_o other_o place_n where_o he_o say_v that_o he_o be_v like_o a_o calf_n and_o a_o beast_n without_o reason_n or_o wisdom_n and_o if_o it_o go_v so_o with_o he_o with_o he_o i_o say_v that_o be_v so_o excellent_a a_o prophet_n what_o shall_v become_v of_o we_o i_o say_v then_o that_o the_o elder_a sort_n ought_v great_o to_o profit_n in_o this_o school_n of_o god_n wisdom_n and_o yet_o this_o be_v no_o vain_a thing_n whereunto_o david_n here_o especial_o exhort_v the_o yongeman_n and_o why_o so_o for_o as_o i_o have_v already_o say_v this_o age_n be_v so_o without_o any_o consideration_n as_o nothing_o
