seek_v to_o justify_v his_o treason_n because_o his_o majesty_n once_o in_o haste_n switch_v he_o for_o cross_v his_o way_n as_o he_o be_v ride_v hard_o at_o hunt_v and_o yet_o his_o great_a enemy_n can_v never_o pretend_v any_o such_o show_n of_o unkindness_n and_o i_o be_o confident_a in_o believe_v he_o never_o do_v any_o man_n more_o harm_n but_o now_o according_a to_o the_o doctrine_n i_o be_o oppose_v all_o these_o story_n shall_v be_v cancel_v and_o expunge_v out_o of_o history_n the_o honour_n of_o triumph_n shall_v be_v deny_v to_o those_o worthy_n and_o their_o merit_n equal_v to_o they_o who_o can_v unconcerned_o behold_v the_o danger_n of_o their_o king_n and_o stand_v quiet_o by_o with_o their_o arm_n fold_v up_o and_o their_o hand_n in_o their_o bosom_n but_o it_o be_v too_o great_a a_o honour_n to_o so_o dull_a a_o doctrine_n to_o stay_v so_o long_o in_o its_o confutation_n any_o degree_n of_o honour_n will_v detest_v and_o abhor_v it_o and_o as_o the_o loyalty_n of_o those_o person_n who_o be_v so_o happy_o instrumental_a in_o that_o miracle_n of_o our_o present_a king_n be_v strange_a preservation_n will_v be_v remember_v with_o eulogy_n and_o blessing_n and_o honour_n as_o long_o as_o loyalty_n rest_v in_o the_o bosom_n of_o this_o nation_n so_o it_o will_v be_v a_o evidence_n to_o the_o world_n that_o all_o true_a englishman_n abhor_v such_o a_o thin_a and_o base_a loyalty_n as_o shall_v think_v it_o enough_o to_o abstain_v only_o from_o offend_v but_o not_o to_o interpose_v at_o all_o in_o defend_v their_o king_n but_o i_o return_v to_o the_o matter_n before_o we_o in_o the_o text_n and_o from_o what_o have_v be_v say_v we_o may_v safe_o infer_v that_o if_o it_o be_v thus_o david_n may_v well_o lament_v saul_n death_n that_o be_v if_o he_o have_v either_o be_v contributive_a direct_o to_o it_o or_o fail_v in_o his_o endeavour_n to_o prevent_v it_o for_o all_o the_o former_a consideration_n make_v this_o matter_n but_o a_o infelicity_n but_o this_o render_v it_o a_o great_a guilt_n and_o therefore_o just_o to_o be_v sorrow_v for_o we_o may_v just_o sorrow_n for_o our_o misery_n but_o when_o we_o pull_v down_o these_o upon_o we_o by_o our_o own_o sin_n we_o may_v much_o more_o do_v so_o we_o lawful_o may_v lament_v our_o infelicity_n but_o we_o needs_o must_v lament_v our_o sin_n now_o thus_o it_o be_v too_o evident_a it_o be_v with_o david_n in_o this_o case_n for_o first_o he_o have_v be_v actual_o in_o arm_n against_o saul_n and_o though_o much_o may_v be_v say_v for_o it_o consider_v some_o circumstance_n yet_o consider_v the_o whole_a matter_n we_o may_v safe_o pronounce_v of_o it_o that_o it_o be_v certain_o unjustifiable_a for_o there_o be_v more_o safe_a way_n of_o avoid_v the_o displeasure_n and_o anger_n of_o saul_n than_o by_o raise_v a_o army_n of_o outlaw_n and_o vicious_a person_n and_o appear_v in_o actual_a rebellion_n against_o he_o especial_o also_o if_o he_o use_v those_o arm_n direct_o against_o saul_n and_o that_o he_o either_o do_v or_o at_o least_o offer_v to_o do_v we_o be_v assure_v from_o the_o proffer_n and_o boast_v he_o make_v to_o achish_n thereof_o 1_o sam._n 28.2_o and_o it_o will_v fix_v a_o deep_a guilt_n on_o the_o fact_n whatever_o the_o intention_n be_v for_o if_o he_o promise_v this_o and_o intend_v not_o to_o perform_v it_o he_o be_v a_o hypocrite_n and_o if_o he_o do_v he_o be_v a_o traitor_n and_o a_o rebel_n but_o if_o none_o of_o this_o be_v true_a yet_o the_o least_o evil_n that_o can_v be_v say_v be_v that_o he_o yield_v not_o that_o assistance_n unto_o saul_n which_o he_o may_v have_v do_v and_o by_o which_o possible_o he_o may_v have_v avert_v this_o sad_a fate_n for_o who_o know_v how_o far_o the_o arm_n of_o david_n in_o this_o juncture_n may_v have_v contribute_v to_o the_o overthrow_n of_o the_o philistine_n and_o who_o know_v not_o but_o that_o this_o may_v have_v be_v a_o happy_a mean_n of_o a_o firm_a reconciliation_n betwixt_o he_o and_o saul_n and_o a_o occasion_n of_o more_o endear_n himself_o to_o all_o the_o people_n and_o occasion_v the_o daughter_n of_o israel_n once_o more_o to_o sing_v his_o 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d and_o there_o be_v little_a reason_n to_o doubt_v but_o these_o consideration_n stick_v close_o to_o he_o and_o give_v a_o deep_a accent_n to_o every_o period_n in_o his_o 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d for_o he_o who_o conscience_n be_v so_o just_o tender_a as_o to_o be_v touch_v with_o a_o sense_n of_o guilt_n when_o he_o have_v but_o offer_v violence_n to_o the_o utmost_a garment_n of_o saul_n may_v well_o be_v suppose_v to_o be_v burden_a now_o with_o that_o sense_n when_o he_o can_v not_o but_o know_v that_o he_o have_v either_o be_v actual_o contributive_a to_o his_o fall_n or_o at_o least_o have_v suspend_v that_o assistance_n which_o probable_o may_v have_v preserve_v he_o from_o it_o from_o all_o which_o consideration_n it_o will_v appear_v too_o clear_o what_o great_a cause_n david_n have_v to_o mourn_v on_o this_o sad_a occasion_n and_o to_o lament_v with_o this_o lamentation_n over_o saul_n and_o over_o jonathan_n his_o son_n but_o it_o seem_v he_o think_v not_o himself_o alone_o concern_v in_o this_o matter_n but_o judge_v other_o also_o have_v cause_n to_o join_v in_o this_o lamentation_n with_o he_o and_o therefore_o according_o he_o take_v care_n and_o give_v order_n that_o they_o shall_v also_o he_o bid_v they_o teach_v the_o child_n of_o judah_n the_o use_n of_o the_o bow_n which_o be_v the_o second_o general_n i_o observe_v in_o speak_v to_o which_o i_o shall_v be_v concern_v to_o do_v these_o two_o thing_n 1._o to_o assure_v this_o interpretation_n and_o sense_n that_o i_o have_v give_v of_o the_o word_n 2._o to_o account_v for_o the_o reasonableness_n of_o the_o thing_n 1._o then_o that_o this_o be_v the_o true_a import_n and_o genuine_a meaning_n of_o this_o parenthesis_n i_o can_v see_v no_o reason_n of_o moment_n to_o induce_v i_o at_o all_o to_o doubt_v but_o some_o very_a great_a one_o to_o make_v i_o confident_a in_o believe_v in_o order_n to_o the_o make_n of_o which_o to_o appear_v to_o you_o also_o i_o must_v desire_v you_o to_o consider_v that_o it_o be_v a_o common_a thing_n among_o the_o jew_n to_o affix_v special_a title_n to_o their_o song_n whether_o they_o be_v eucharistical_a or_o hilasterial_a i_o e._n whether_o they_o be_v design_v to_o give_v praise_n for_o mercy_n or_o whether_o they_o be_v intend_v to_o bewail_v guilt_n and_o depricate_a punishment_n for_o of_o both_o nature_n you_o shall_v meet_v with_o song_n in_o the_o holy_a scripture_n and_o many_o of_o these_o with_o some_o particular_a name_n and_o title_n affix_v to_o they_o of_o which_o in_o the_o book_n of_o psalm_n we_o meet_v with_o many_o instance_n i._n e._n of_o psalm_n with_o such_o superscription_n as_o these_o to_o the_o chief_a musician_n neginoth_n shoshannim_n altashith_n etc._n etc._n just_a as_o this_o to_o the_o chief_a musician_n kesh_v or_o the_o bow_n the_o plain_a meaning_n of_o which_o be_v this_o he_o bid_v the_o chief_a musician_n such_o as_o heman_n ethan_n and_o jeduthun_n to_o teach_v the_o common_a people_n to_o sing_v this_o song_n of_o mourn_v for_o the_o death_n of_o saul_n and_o this_o name_n of_o the_o bow_n be_v give_v to_o it_o with_o respect_n perhaps_o to_o the_o philistine_n archer_n by_o who_o this_o slaughter_n be_v make_v as_o the_o precedent_a chapter_n tell_v we_o but_o more_o especial_o with_o respect_n to_o the_o bow_n of_o jonathan_n of_o which_o mention_n be_v make_v in_o it_o also_o and_o by_o three_o arrow_n shoot_v out_o of_o which_o by_o that_o true_a of_o friend_n david_n have_v notice_n of_o his_o danger_n and_o warn_v give_v he_o to_o provide_v for_o his_o safety_n so_o that_o you_o see_v i_o make_v here_o the_o bow_n to_o be_v the_o name_n of_o a_o song_n and_o not_o to_o denote_v that_o piece_n of_o armature_n that_o be_v express_v by_o that_o name_n and_o so_o the_o learning_n the_o people_n the_o use_n of_o the_o bow_n be_v the_o learning_n they_o to_o sing_v devout_o and_o musical_o this_o song_n and_o this_o interpretation_n may_v be_v make_v good_a from_o these_o two_o argument_n 1._o the_o authority_n of_o some_o very_a considerable_a version_n and_o expositor_n 2._o the_o unreasonableness_n of_o the_o contrary_a exposition_n 1._o by_o the_o authority_n of_o some_o very_a considerable_a translation_n of_o this_o place_n such_o be_v that_o of_o the_o 72_o interpreter_n and_o the_o vulgar_a latin_a i._n e._n in_o all_o the_o ancient_a copy_n and_o manuscript_n of_o it_o as_o the_o learned_a gregory_n from_o his_o own_o observation_n intimate_v in_o his_o note_n upon_o this_o place_n from_o who_o i_o be_o

not_o ashamed_a to_o acknowledge_v that_o i_o receive_v great_a help_n and_o direction_n in_o find_v out_o this_o sense_n and_o such_o also_o be_v that_o not_o to_o be_v contemn_v ancient_a translation_n of_o tindal_n in_o our_o own_o tongue_n and_o consonant_n to_o this_o sense_n be_v it_o understand_v by_o some_o very_a learned_a expositor_n and_o will_v have_v be_v so_o by_o all_o be_v it_o not_o that_o a_o fondness_n to_o follow_v some_o trifle_a rabbi_n have_v betray_v they_o into_o the_o contrary_n i_o do_v not_o desire_v to_o be_v tell_v for_o i_o have_v hint_v it_o myself_o that_o some_o of_o the_o jewish_a master_n understand_v this_o place_n otherwise_o i_o know_v it_o and_o that_o they_o also_o have_v understand_v many_o other_o very_o ridiculous_o and_o have_v miserable_o trifle_v and_o say_v many_o very_a unreasonable_a thing_n upon_o they_o and_o none_o more_o so_o than_o what_o they_o have_v deliver_v with_o respect_n to_o king_n and_o therefore_o something_o relative_a to_o our_o present_a matter_n as_o perhaps_o you_o may_v hear_v more_o full_o by_o and_o by_o i_o do_v not_o speak_v this_o to_o disparage_v all_o jewish_a learning_n i_o will_v have_v it_o encourage_v by_o some_o but_o not_o therefore_o idolise_v by_o other_o i_o will_v not_o bring_v a_o odium_n upon_o all_o the_o rabbi_n but_o i_o will_v not_o have_v their_o say_n make_v oracular_a and_o the_o great_a standard_n of_o truth_n for_o when_o god_n have_v bless_v we_o with_o a_o clear_a and_o full_a relation_n and_o give_v we_o a_o key_n by_o which_o to_o unlock_v more_o clear_o all_o their_o mystery_n than_o ever_o they_o themselves_o can_v i_o do_v not_o know_v how_o to_o account_v it_o a_o due_a veneration_n of_o that_o revelation_n to_o forsake_v it_o to_o go_v and_o grope_v in_o umbrage_n and_o shadow_n and_o type_n and_o in_o fabulous_a tradition_n and_o legend_n such_o as_o most_o of_o their_o book_n be_v stuff_v much_o with_o if_o not_o whole_o compose_v of_o beside_o experience_n have_v attest_v the_o dangerous_a consequence_n hereof_o it_o have_v be_v make_v evident_a of_o late_a by_o a_o learned_a pen_n how_o most_o of_o our_o christian_a error_n have_v derive_v from_o a_o over_o valuation_n and_o too_o great_a a_o fondness_n of_o jewish_a doctrine_n and_o custom_n and_o true_o i_o think_v it_o neither_o difficult_a nor_o injurious_a to_o give_v the_o same_o origine_fw-la to_o our_o late_a woeful_a state_n rebellion_n and_o to_o show_v the_o doctrine_n of_o the_o late_a usurper_n to_o be_v but_o the_o transcript_n of_o what_o the_o latter_a jew_n do_v fabulous_o report_v of_o the_o power_n of_o their_o sanhedrim_n over_o king_n but_o i_o must_v beg_v pardon_n for_o this_o digression_n and_o hasten_v to_o show_v the_o unreasonableness_n of_o the_o contrary_a exposition_n and_o that_o not_o only_o 1._o from_o the_o impropriety_n and_o inelegancy_n of_o the_o speech_n and_o the_o strangeness_n of_o the_o apostrophe_n which_o be_v apparent_a in_o bring_v in_o david_n begin_v a_o public_a lamentation_n and_o then_o break_v off_o with_o a_o impertinent_a command_n to_o teach_v the_o child_n of_o judah_n the_o use_n of_o the_o bow_n but_o second_o and_o chief_o from_o the_o improbability_n of_o the_o thing_n for_o it_o can_v reasonable_o be_v think_v that_o the_o man_n of_o judah_n be_v now_o to_o learn_v the_o use_n of_o the_o bow_n or_o ignorant_a of_o it_o it_o be_v the_o common_a tactick_a practice_n over_o all_o the_o east_n and_o both_o saul_n and_o jonathan_n be_v excellent_a archer_n themselves_o and_o the_o use_n and_o knowledge_n of_o the_o bow_n be_v so_o very_o common_a that_o as_o bread_n in_o the_o hebrew_n dialect_n be_v common_o use_v to_o signify_v all_o food_n so_o be_v the_o bow_n to_o denote_v all_o sort_n of_o armature_n this_o therefore_o now_o i_o take_v to_o be_v the_o grant_v sense_n of_o these_o word_n and_o true_o can_v but_o wonder_n if_o any_o one_o that_o hear_v it_o do_v not_o present_o see_v the_o great_a consonancy_n of_o it_o and_o therefore_o from_o the_o reasonableness_n of_o the_o sense_n i_o proceed_v 2._o to_o account_v for_o the_o equitableness_n of_o the_o thing_n and_o certain_o if_o there_o be_v reason_n for_o david_n lament_v the_o death_n of_o saul_n there_o be_v so_o also_o for_o the_o people_n join_v in_o consort_n with_o he_o and_o joint_o
