nourish_v he_o with_o the_o cup_n of_o pleasure_n and_o feed_v he_o with_o the_o bread_n of_o heaven_n i_o will_v fain_o know_v how_o he_o can_v better_o have_v express_v the_o care_n of_o his_o government_n what_o great_a tenderness_n can_v he_o possible_o show_v they_o than_o by_o respect_v they_o so_o much_o in_o this_o life_n as_o to_o allow_v they_o a_o sort_n of_o anticipation_n of_o the_o blessedness_n hereafter_o x._o but_o perhaps_o it_o will_v be_v answer_v here_o that_o it_o be_v true_a that_o a_o long_a time_n ago_o god_n be_v thus_o careful_a of_o mankind_n but_o now_o a_o day_n he_o do_v not_o at_o all_o trouble_n himself_o with_o it_o pray_o how_o come_v we_o to_o be_v of_o that_o opinion_n because_o it_o may_v be_v we_o be_v not_o every_o day_n feed_v with_o manna_n as_o they_o be_v then_o when_o we_o be_v provide_v with_o plentiful_a crop_n of_o corn_n because_o the_o quail_n do_v not_o fly_v in_o our_o face_n to_o be_v catch_v when_o we_o be_v supply_v with_o all_o sort_n of_o bird_n beast_n and_o cattle_n because_o we_o drink_v not_o water_n flow_v from_o hard_a rock_n when_o we_o have_v cellar_n store_v with_o choice_a wine_n beside_o i_o be_o confident_a that_o even_o we_o ourselves_o who_o think_v they_o be_v so_o much_o the_o care_n of_o god_n and_o that_o we_o be_v neglect_v by_o he_o shall_v he_o instead_o of_o what_o we_o now_o enjoy_v give_v we_o those_o thing_n they_o have_v will_v certain_o refuse_v the_o offer_n we_o will_v never_o part_v with_o what_o we_o have_v at_o present_a to_o be_v possess_v of_o what_o they_o have_v not_o that_o we_o have_v better_a thing_n now_o than_o that_o people_n then_o enjoy_v but_o because_o they_o who_o be_v thus_o daily_o feed_v by_o the_o hand_n of_o god_n and_o heaven_n prefer_v their_o former_a gluttony_n to_o their_o present_a provision_n grow_v sullen_a and_o afflict_a with_o the_o base_a remembrance_n of_o fleshly_a diet_n and_o lewd_o hankered_a after_o leek_n and_o onion_n not_o that_o their_o former_a food_n be_v any_o whit_n the_o better_a but_o because_o they_o be_v just_a in_o the_o same_o condition_n that_o we_o be_v now_o they_o abhor_v what_o ever_o be_v present_a and_o lust_v for_o what_o be_v not_o we_o commend_v the_o thing_n of_o that_o age_n more_o than_o of_o our_o own_o not_o that_o we_o have_v rather_o have_v they_o if_o it_o be_v put_v to_o our_o choice_n but_o it_o be_v a_o vice_n common_a to_o mankind_n our_o desire_n be_v always_o rove_a after_o what_o we_o have_v not_o as_o one_o say_v well_o other_o man_n good_n please_v we_o
