solemn_a fast_a day_n and_o wrestle_v with_o god_n by_o prayer_n as_o jacob_n do_v with_o the_o angel_n and_o not_o let_v he_o go_v until_o he_o have_v bless_v we_o and_o our_o force_n i_o will_v to_o god_n i_o can_v prevail_v with_o you_o all_o for_o to_o consider_v the_o case_n of_o the_o murmur_a complain_v unbelieve_a israelite_n and_o so_o to_o be_v warn_v and_o repent_v for_o do_v not_o the_o

the_o world_n be_v come_v mark_v that_o we_o shall_v not_o be_v idolater_n as_o be_v some_o of_o they_o that_o we_o shall_v not_o commit_v fornication_n as_o do_v some_o of_o they_o and_o fall_v in_o one_o day_n three_o and_o twenty_o thousand_o that_o we_o shall_v not_o swear_v or_o take_v the_o name_n of_o god_n in_o vain_a as_o do_v some_o of_o they_o and_o be_v destroy_v of_o the_o destroyer_n that_o we_o shall_v not_o have_v in_o we_o evil_a heart_n of_o unbelief_n and_o so_o provoke_v the_o majesty_n of_o heaven_n to_o refuse_v to_o go_v forth_o with_o our_o host_n 1_o cor._n 10._o 6._o to_o 12._o there_o be_v three_o vice_n or_o sin_n especial_o above_o all_o other_o note_v by_o historian_n which_o bring_v danger_n and_o public_a punishment_n and_o calamity_n unto_o a_o kingdom_n or_o people_n viz._n ungodliness_n injustice_n and_o luxuriousness_n ungodliness_n trouble_v the_o church_n injustice_n the_o vulgar_a people_n and_o luxuriousness_n private_a family_n and_o the_o hurt_n in_o special_a redound_v to_o the_o whole_a nation_n therefore_o salmoxes_n counsel_n be_v not_o amiss_o say_v that_o these_o thing_n shall_v by_o all_o mean_n be_v avoid_v by_o every_o one_o that_o fear_v god_n namely_o sluggishness_n from_o the_o body_n ignorance_n from_o the_o mind_n gluttony_n from_o the_o belly_n sedition_n and_o faction_n from_o the_o church_n and_o nation_n

have_v hear_v here_o how_o the_o people_n of_o israel_n provoke_v the_o infinite_a majesty_n of_o heaven_n and_o earth_n to_o wrath_n by_o their_o evil_a way_n and_o sinful_a action_n and_o cause_v the_o most_o great_a and_o terrible_a god_n who_o be_v their_o helper_n and_o defender_n to_o depart_v from_o they_o and_o leave_v they_o to_o the_o will_n of_o their_o enemy_n insomuch_o that_o they_o be_v smite_v of_o they_o sundry_a time_n oh_o that_o this_o may_v be_v a_o warning_n unto_o all_o from_o the_o high_a to_o the_o low_a and_o a_o effectual_a argument_n to_o prevail_v with_o every_o one_o of_o you_o both_o officer_n and_o soldier_n for_o to_o leave_v off_o your_o most_o horrid_a oath_n your_o profane_a speech_n your_o dissolute_a action_n your_o intemperate_a drink_n

godly_a the_o remainder_n of_o your_o day_n and_o if_o you_o do_v thus_o than_o you_o may_v just_o hope_v for_o the_o blessing_n of_o god_n almighty_n upon_o your_o endeavour_n and_o upon_o good_a ground_n expect_v to_o prosper_v in_o that_o employment_n whereunto_o you_o be_v call_v but_o if_o you_o still_o do_v wicked_o if_o you_o still_o continue_v in_o sin_n and_o disobey_v the_o commandment_n of_o god_n can_v you_o reasonable_o think_v that_o the_o lord_n of_o host_n will_v abide_v with_o you_o or_o take_v your_o part_n against_o the_o enemy_n oh_o no_o he_o be_v a_o most_o just_a and_o holy_a god_n who_o will_v by_o no_o mean_n clear_v the_o guilty_a but_o will_v execute_v the_o fierceness_n of_o his_o wrath_n against_o you_o until_o he_o have_v destroy_v you_o from_o off_o the_o face_n of_o the_o earth_n and_o blot_v out_o your_o name_n from_o under_o heaven_n we_o have_v the_o testimony_n of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n for_o this_o and_o many_o example_n in_o the_o sacred_a scripture_n as_o the_o old_a world_n which_o be_v drown_v sodom_n and_o gomorrah_n destroy_v with_o fire_n and_o brimstone_n from_o heaven_n the_o galilean_n on_o who_o the_o tower_n of_o
