this_o time_n when_o he_o think_v he_o so_o much_o displease_v with_o he_o as_o he_o show_v in_o the_o conclusion_n this_o be_v a_o very_a hard_a thing_n for_o person_n under_o great_a affliction_n to_o believe_v and_o it_o be_v not_o necessary_a they_o shall_v nay_o sometime_o the_o apprehension_n of_o god_n displeasure_n against_o they_o for_o their_o sin_n be_v one_o of_o the_o most_o useful_a part_n of_o affliction_n for_o without_o this_o they_o be_v apt_a either_o to_o inflame_v man_n mind_n with_o discontent_n and_o unruly_a passion_n or_o to_o stupefie_v they_o with_o the_o dull_a and_o heavy_a opiate_n of_o chance_n or_o necessity_n but_o when_o affliction_n be_v look_v on_o as_o come_v from_o god_n hand_n this_o rouse_v and_o awaken_v our_o mind_n and_o make_v we_o think_v it_o necessary_a to_o look_v about_o we_o to_o search_v and_o examine_v our_o way_n to_o find_v out_o the_o particular_a sin_n we_o have_v give_v way_n to_o which_o may_v have_v just_o provoke_v god_n to_o show_v his_o displeasure_n against_o we_o as_o we_o have_v reason_n above_o all_o thing_n to_o be_v afraid_a of_o his_o anger_n so_o it_o be_v our_o wisdom_n to_o apprehend_v the_o least_o change_n of_o his_o countenance_n towards_o we_o and_o to_o make_v our_o peace_n with_o he_o and_o then_o we_o have_v no_o cause_n to_o fear_v any_o thing_n that_o may_v happen_v to_o we_o for_o the_o wise_a god_n will_v then_o turn_v all_o our_o cross_n into_o such_o proper_a remedy_n for_o the_o disease_n of_o our_o mind_n that_o the_o sharp_a affliction_n will_v tend_v more_o to_o the_o purge_n away_o our_o sin_n and_o thereby_o to_o a_o more_o sound_a and_o healthful_a state_n of_o our_o soul_n than_o all_o the_o sleep_a potion_n of_o the_o intoxicate_a pleasure_n and_o vanity_n of_o this_o world_n will_v ever_o have_v do_v for_o luxury_n and_o epicurism_n with_o all_o the_o art_n of_o heighten_v the_o pleasure_n of_o life_n be_v thing_n not_o more_o delightful_a to_o sense_n than_o dangerous_a to_o man_n soul_n they_o be_v like_o too_o frequent_a use_n of_o spirit_n in_o a_o time_n of_o health_n which_o weaken_v the_o force_n of_o nature_n by_o raise_v it_o too_o high_a so_o that_o be_v it_o in_o the_o choice_n of_o a_o wise_a man_n to_o have_v and_o enjoy_v as_o much_o of_o this_o world_n as_o he_o please_v he_o will_v see_v a_o necessity_n to_o restrain_v his_o appetite_n and_o to_o deny_v himself_o some_o of_o the_o lawful_a pleasure_n of_o life_n be_v it_o only_o to_o keep_v up_o the_o relish_n by_o variety_n and_o by_o enjoy_v they_o less_o to_o hope_v to_o enjoy_v they_o long_o we_o have_v certain_o than_o no_o reason_n to_o complain_v if_o god_n think_v fit_a to_o debar_v we_o at_o all_o time_n any_o use_n of_o unlawful_a pleasure_n and_o a_o inordinate_a use_n of_o any_o since_o he_o leave_v scope_n enough_o for_o the_o true_a contentment_n of_o life_n and_o if_o at_o some_o time_n he_o judge_v it_o necessary_a to_o give_v we_o physic_n as_o well_o as_o food_n shall_v we_o not_o submit_v to_o his_o will_n for_o as_o job_n say_v shall_v we_o receive_v good_a at_o the_o hand_n of_o god_n 2.10_o and_o shall_v we_o not_o receive_v evil_a as_o if_o he_o have_v say_v shall_v we_o think_v much_o that_o our_o father_n shall_v be_v our_o physician_n that_o he_o who_o have_v be_v hitherto_o so_o kind_a to_o we_o to_o please_v we_o shall_v now_o be_v so_o kind_a to_o undertake_v our_o cure_n shall_v we_o complain_v that_o our_o physician_n do_v not_o humour_n our_o palate_n when_o he_o design_v our_o health_n god_n know_v what_o be_v better_o for_o we_o than_o we_o do_v for_o ourselves_o and_o that_o which_o seem_v most_o evil_a at_o present_a may_v turn_v to_o the_o great_a good_a i_o confess_v afterward_o job_n be_v either_o sour_v by_o the_o malignity_n of_o his_o distemper_n or_o heat_v by_o the_o impertinency_n or_o bitterness_n of_o his_o friend_n discourse_n for_o if_o they_o have_v no_o

these_o arise_v from_o the_o cloud_n upon_o his_o mind_n which_o make_v he_o then_o apprehend_v all_o these_o affliction_n to_o come_v from_o god_n wrath_n and_o indignation_n against_o he_o the_o thought_n of_o which_o he_o be_v not_o able_a to_o bear_v but_o therein_o he_o be_v whole_o mistake_v and_o then_o only_o hit_v upon_o the_o truth_n of_o his_o case_n when_o he_o say_v when_o he_o

world_n and_o who_o he_o desire_v to_o please_v above_o all_o thing_n shall_v become_v his_o enemy_n and_o set_v himself_o against_o he_o but_o he_o do_v not_o always_o think_v so_o although_o his_o friend_n represent_v his_o condition_n to_o he_o in_o the_o black_a and_o most_o frightful_a manner_n which_o startle_v he_o and_o make_v he_o resent_v his_o suffering_n with_o great_a bitterness_n and_o express_v it_o with_o a_o kind_n of_o horror_n yet_o he_o soon_o recover_v himself_o out_o of_o those_o agony_n and_o keep_v up_o his_o trust_n and_o confidence_n in_o god_n and_o there_o be_v two_o thing_n which_o support_v he_o under_o all_o his_o dismal_a apprehension_n 1._o the_o reflection_n of_o a_o good_a conscience_n in_o the_o discharge_n of_o his_o duty_n to_o god_n and_o man_n and_o therefore_o he_o tell_v his_o friend_n after_o all_o their_o sharp_a reflection_n upon_o he_o 6._o till_o i_o die_v i_o will_v not_o remove_v my_o integrity_n from_o i_o my_o righteousness_n i_o hold_v fast_o and_o will_v not_o let_v it_o go_v my_o heart_n shall_v not_o reproach_v i_o so_o long_o as_o i_o live_v it_o be_v this_o which_o raise_v his_o spirit_n and_o make_v he_o stand_v his_o ground_n against_o the_o opposition_n of_o his_o friend_n and_o the_o scorn_n of_o his_o enemy_n it_o be_v this_o which_o make_v he_o despise_v the_o meanness_n of_o those_o who_o court_v admire_a and_o flatter_v he_o in_o his_o former_a greatness_n but_o now_o despise_v and_o deride_v he_o make_v he_o the_o subject_n of_o their_o raillery_n and_o entertainment_n 30.9_o and_o now_o i_o be_o their_o song_n yea_o i_o be_o their_o byword_n even_o they_o who_o but_o a_o little_a before_o as_o he_o at_o large_a describe_v it_o keep_v their_o distance_n from_o he_o make_v way_n for_o he_o as_o he_o pass_v the_o street_n admire_v all_o he_o speak_v as_o oracle_n 10._o and_o all_o he_o do_v as_o the_o perfection_n of_o wisdom_n and_o virtue_n but_o so_o wise_a a_o man_n can_v not_o be_v surprise_v to_o see_v flattery_n turn_v into_o scorn_n and_o derision_n for_o no_o man_n think_v to_o gain_v by_o his_o flattery_n who_o have_v not_o a_o secret_a contempt_n of_o the_o person_n he_o flatter_v and_o so_o good_a a_o man_n can_v not_o but_o forgive_v the_o unjust_a reproach_n that_o be_v cast_v upon_o he_o as_o long_o as_o he_o have_v the_o inward_a satisfaction_n of_o his_o own_o integrity_n and_o therefore_o he_o give_v so_o ample_a a_o account_n of_o his_o whole_a life_n and_o action_n both_o in_o his_o public_a and_o private_a capacity_n 31._o not_o to_o boast_v of_o his_o virtue_n but_o to_o be_v a_o just_a vindication_n of_o his_o innocence_n under_o all_o their_o aspersion_n and_o to_o let_v they_o see_v that_o the_o comfort_n of_o a_o good_a conscience_n do_v not_o fail_v when_o friend_n do_v and_o as_o the_o wise_a man_n speak_v 14.14_o when_o the_o backslider_n in_o heart_n shall_v be_v fill_v with_o their_o own_o way_n a_o good_a man_n shall_v be_v satisfy_v
