noah_n to_o become_v a_o laugh_a stock_n to_o his_o own_o son_n what_o heart-breaking_n to_o david_n by_o his_o own_o son_n to_o be_v thrust_v from_o his_o kingdom_n so_o grievous_a be_v those_o punishment_n lay_v upon_o they_o that_o if_o without_o any_o respect_n of_o hell_n or_o heaven_n we_o can_v consider_v of_o they_o we_o have_v rather_o want_v all_o the_o pleasure_n of_o sin_n which_o

they_o can_v never_o be_v repair_v and_o recover_v but_o with_o much_o sorrow_n and_o great_a danger_n for_o it_o arelapse_n can_v but_o breed_v much_o sorrow_n of_o heart_n to_o remember_v his_o former_a sin_n to_o examine_v and_o see_v the_o greatness_n of_o they_o to_o apply_v god_n judgement_n to_o they_o and_o to_o provoke_v himself_o to_o sorrow_n for_o they_o this_o be_v as_o it_o be_v to_o go_v through_o the_o pike_n and_o through_o a_o purgatory_n in_o this_o present_a life_n and_o yet_o this_o must_v be_v do_v before_o we_o can_v recover_v god_n grace_n again_o again_o it_o be_v

so_o that_o all_o the_o surge_n and_o wave_n do_v pass_v and_o flow_v over_o he_o now_o we_o know_v what_o danger_n it_o be_v for_o a_o man_n to_o be_v thrust_v over_o head_n and_o ear_n into_o the_o deep_a water_n and_o therefore_o they_o that_o be_v in_o such_o a_o case_n be_v in_o great_a danger_n wherefore_o all_o these_o thing_n consider_v the_o loss_n of_o all_o our_o labour_n the_o loss_n of_o all_o true_a joy_n the_o unfitness_n to_o do_v good_a the_o readiness_n to_o sin_n the_o grief_n and_o danger_n that_o ensue_v thereof_o will_n or_o at_o the_o least_o wise_a may_v cause_v we_o

the_o lord_n have_v try_v they_o long_o by_o tradition_n and_o they_o profit_v not_o as_o be_v plain_a in_o every_o commandment_n and_o therefore_o this_o law_n for_o the_o sabbath_n be_v not_o then_o
