place_n make_v it_o a_o rule_n of_o infallibility_n mark_v the_o upright_a man_n and_o behold_v the_o perfect_a man_n for_o the_o end_n of_o that_o man_n be_v peace_n and_o so_o it_o be_v verify_v here_o which_o be_v say_v by_o the_o prophet_n sorrow_n may_v be_v over_o night_n but_o joy_v come_v meth_z in_o the_o morning_n and_o this_o again_o be_v another_o advantage_n of_o the_o prosperity_n of_o the_o godly_a that_o their_o sorrow_n come_v but_o over_o night_n when_o they_o may_v sleep_v it_o out_o and_o pass_v it_o over_o but_o their_o joy_n come_v in_o the_o morning_n when_o they_o come_v fresh_a unto_o it_o and_o have_v the_o whole_a day_n before_o they_o to_o enjoy_v it_o and_o now_o if_o we_o ask_v the_o prophet_n what_o reason_n he_o can_v give_v of_o this_o prosper_v of_o the_o godly_a do_v not_o his_o word_n themselves_o answer_v for_o he_o and_o carry_v in_o they_o the_o very_a reason_n of_o it_o for_o in_o say_v whatsoever_o he_o do_v he_o seem_v to_o intend_v a_o

thus_o the_o service_n be_v so_o small_a the_o wage_n so_o great_a that_o if_o it_o be_v tell_v we_o by_o any_o but_o by_o a_o prophet_n or_o tell_v we_o of_o any_o but_o of_o god_n we_o may_v just_o

you_o of_o little_a faith_n yet_o it_o must_v be_v observe_v here_o though_o we_o call_v it_o wage_n that_o yet_o it_o be_v not_o so_o much_o earn_v as_o give_v be_v more_o of_o favour_n than_o of_o

we_o shall_v ask_v the_o world_n what_o it_o say_v to_o all_o this_o whether_o it_o think_v not_o these_o blessing_n to_o be_v far_o more_o worth_a than_o all_o their_o guild_a vanity_n what_o do_v we_o think_v will_v the_o world_n answer_v to_o such_o a_o question_n we_o may_v be_v sure_a the_o world_n will_v answer_v thus_o it_o like_v the_o blessing_n well_o and_o think_v they_o all_o good_a but_o one_o circumstance_n in_o they_o it_o do_v not_o like_a that_o they_o be_v all_o in_o the_o future_a none_o in_o the_o present_a all_o bird_n in_o the_o bush_n none_o in_o the_o hand_n never_o a_o bird_n in_o the_o hand_n among_o they_o all_o bless_a be_v they_o that_o mourn_v for_o they_o be_v not_o but_o shall_v be_v comfort_v the_o tree_n be_v plant_v by_o the_o water_n side_n but_o bear_v no_o fruit_n yet_o but_o will_v do_v a_o godly_a man_n action_n do_v not_o prosper_v but_o they_o shall_v prosper_v this_o delay_n the_o world_n do_v not_o like_a it_o can_v away_o with_o these_o future_a tense_n so_o much_o talk_v of_o what_o shall_v be_v and_o nothing_o of_o what_o be_v and_o therefore_o they_o have_v a_o question_n to_o ask_v too_o the_o same_o which_o the_o disciple_n ask_v christ_n but_o when_o shall_v these_o thing_n be_v for_o if_o the_o blessedness_n be_v long_o a_o come_n it_o can_v then_o come_v but_o to_o this_o that_o it_o may_v be_v say_v a_o godly_a man_n shall_v be_v bless_v but_o be_v miserable_a and_o miserable_a too_o for_o god_n know_v how_o long_o therefore_o give_v we_o the_o present_a say_v they_o and_o as_o christ_n also_o seem_v to_o teach_v we_o let_v hereafter_o shift_v for_o itself_o this_o indeed_o be_v the_o hinge_v the_o world_n still_o turn_v upon_o and_o it_o be_v a_o hard_a matter_n to_o take_v it_o off_o but_o may_v we_o not_o answer_v these_o man_n as_o christ_n answer_v his_o disciple_n non_fw-la est_fw-la vestrum_fw-la nôsse_fw-la tempora_fw-la it_o be_v not_o for_o you_o to_o know_v the_o time_n and_o

of_o your_o knowledge_n come_v to_o it_o be_v indeed_o a_o earthly_a question_n and_o move_v only_o by_o such_o of_o who_o it_o be_v say_v earth_n thou_o be_v and_o to_o earth_n thou_o shall_v return_v for_o when_o we_o move_v such_o question_n we_o return_v to_o earth_n for_o if_o we_o stay_v with_o god_n we_o shall_v know_v that_o as_o the_o darkness_n and_o the_o light_n be_v all_o alike_o to_o he_o so_o to_o he_o the_o future_a and_o the_o present_n be_v all_o one_o that_o we_o may_v marvel_n what_o saint_n peter_n mean_v to_o say_v a_o thousand_o year_n with_o god_n be_v as_o a_o day_n as_o though_o there_o be_v a_o proportion_n between_o eternity_n and_o time_n when_o isaiah_n speak_v it_o out_o plain_o all_o nation_n be_v to_o god_n as_o nothing_o and_o put_v in_o the_o balance_n be_v less_o than_o nothing_o and_o we_o may_v say_v as_o well_o all_o time_n be_v to_o he_o as_o nothing_o and_o put_v in_o the_o balance_n with_o eternity_n be_v less_o than_o nothing_o and_o therefore_o when_o we_o meet_v with_o these_o word_n will_v be_v and_o shall_v be_v in_o relation_n to_o god_n we_o may_v take_v they_o rather_o as_o word_n of_o order_n than_o of_o time_n as_o in_o order_n of_o nature_n the_o tree_n must_v first_o be_v plant_v before_o it_o can_v bring_v forth_o fruit_n a_o deed_n must_v be_v do_v before_o it_o can_v be_v reward_v and_o yet_o even_o this_o order_n also_o be_v in_o god_n dispose_n either_o to_o divert_v it_o or_o whole_o to_o reverse_v it_o at_o his_o own_o pleasure_n as_o in_o the_o garden_n of_o eden_n there_o be_v bear_v of_o fruit_n as_o soon_o as_o plant_v of_o tree_n this_o be_v a_o divert_v of_o order_n but_o when_o god_n say_v esau_n have_v i_o hate_v and_o love_v jacob_n before_o they_o have_v do_v either_o good_a or_o evil_a here_o be_v a_o prosper_v before_o a_o do_v and_o we_o may_v say_v a_o bearing_z of_o fruit_n before_o a_o plant_n the_o tree_n and_o this_o be_v a_o absolute_a reverse_v of_o order_n the_o world_n therefore_o must_v take_v notice_n that_o will_v be_v with_o god_n be_v as_o much_o as_o with_o man_n it_o be_v and_o when_o he_o say_v it_o shall_v be_v it_o be_v as_o good_a as_o if_o it_o
