By Christopher Cob, lay-man, minister of an united people in Ely. Collected and analized for a private use, by Hampden Reeve, Master of Arts, one of that Society, and a constant hearer. Now published by the assent of the whole Society (as a short character, at present, of them and their way, till an opportunity of a farther and fuller discovery) for satisfaction in general.

the_o abatement_n of_o the_o water_n there_o be_v a_o condition_n beyond_o a_o sure_a and_o safe_a condition_n when_o christ_n himself_o the_o saviour_n be_v to_o deliver_v up_o the_o kingdom_n to_o

o_o baal_n save_v we_o yet_o no_o answer_n come_v there_o be_v not_o this_o dove_n which_o noah_n send_v forth_o that_o can_v bring_v a_o olive_n branch_n of_o peace_n in_o its_o mouth_n and_o give_v

they_o save_v none_o the_o wall_n and_o the_o dauber_n fall_v together_o they_o flee_v from_o their_o sheep_n when_o the_o wolf_n come_v and_o leave_v their_o egg_n in_o the_o dust_n like_o the_o

in_o soul_n till_o christ_n be_v form_v in_o they_o this_o be_v that_o interpreter_n one_o of_o a_o thousand_o that_o can_v show_v to_o man_n his_o righteousness_n and_o never_o leave_v till_o that_o be_v do_v and_o this_o condemn_v the_o world_n that_o sensual_a and_o devilish_a part_n will_v never_o endure_v thus_o to_o stick_v to_o the_o work_n to_o cleave_v to_o a_o people_n through_o all_o gainsaying_n opposing_n and_o ill_a requital_n many_o can_v preach_v so_o long_o as_o they_o may_v have_v honour_n and_o gain_v and_o be_v well_o think_v of_o but_o now_o take_v away_o their_o money_n or_o cross_v their_o will_n let_v they_o be_v despise_v and_o dishonour_v and_o they_o can_v present_o be_v go_v and_o leave_v their_o people_n and_o rid_v their_o hand_n of_o trouble_n so_o that_o they_o will_v stick_v to_o none_o far_o than_o they_o can_v serve_v themselves_o and_o their_o own_o end_n and_o thus_o nothing_o come_v of_o their_o preach_n they_o bring_v their_o people_n to_o nothing_o in_o the_o conclusion_n i_o have_v know_v some_o minister_n myself_o that_o have_v be_v preach_v these_o thirty_o year_n and_o not_o a_o man_n convert_v by_o they_o what_o a_o miserable_a

they_o can_v get_v from_o they_o so_o easy_o you_o shall_v not_o see_v my_o face_n unless_o your_o young_a brother_n be_v with_o you_o say_v joseph_n they_o must_v not_o leave_v a_o hoof_n behind_o that_o belong_v to_o israel_n such_o a_o charge_n as_o this_o be_v lay_v upon_o i_o concern_v some_o of_o your_o soul_n that_o if_o you_o fall_v short_a i_o shall_v bear_v the_o blame_n for_o ever_o the_o blood_n will_v be_v require_v at_o my_o hand_n if_o i_o deal_v not_o faithful_o and_o bring_v you_o home_o if_o you_o be_v not_o save_v to_o the_o utmost_a but_o the_o encouragement_n to_o i_o be_v that_o some_o have_v go_v through_o this_o work_n noah_n do_v save_v his_o house_n his_o labour_n be_v not_o in_o vain_a and_o the_o promise_n to_o christ_n be_v he_o shall_v see_v of_o the_o travel_n of_o his_o soul_n and_o be_v satisfy_v noah_n be_v reward_v for_o his_o many_o year_n labour_n he_o save_v his_o house_n and_o if_o the_o lord_n will_v please_v after_o all_o my_o twenty_o year_n travel_n and_o preach_v but_o to_o give_v i_o a_o people_n that_o may_v indeed_o build_v this_o ark_n and_o attain_v to_o a_o sure_a knowledge_n of_o their_o eternal_a condition_n that_o they_o shall_v live_v for_o ever_o it_o will_v requite_v i_o for_o all_o if_o some_o of_o you_o may_v come_v forth_o thus_o to_o be_v judge_n of_o the_o world_n and_o build_v such_o a_o ark_n of_o truth_n as_o that_o all_o the_o dagon_n and_o idol-worship_n of_o the_o world_n must_v fall_v before_o it_o iii_o the_o three_o effect_n that_o follow_v this_o build_n of_o the_o ark_n be_v this_o he_o become_v a_o heir_n of_o the_o righteousness_n which_o be_v by_o faith_n and_o about_o this_o three_o thing_n may_v be_v consider_v 1._o what_o be_v this_o inheritance_n it_o be_v a_o very_a large_a inheritance_n it_o be_v to_o enjoy_v the_o lord_n to_o be_v join_v and_o make_v one_o spirit_n with_o he_o the_o lord_n be_v my_o portion_n say_v david_n the_o lord_n be_v my_o lot_n my_o refuge_n the_o lifter_n up_o of_o my_o head_n this_n be_v a_o wonderful_a large_a inheritance_n great_a be_v the_o portion_n of_o his_o people_n thus_o shall_v it_o be_v do_v to_o the_o man_n who_o he_o delight_v to_o honour_n he_o shall_v have_v a_o inheritance_n in_o light_n a_o inheritance_n incorruptible_a and_o that_o fade_v not_o away_o no_o alter_v of_o it_o when_o i_o awake_v i_o be_o still_o with_o thou_o say_v david_n his_o inheritance_n abide_v sure_a to_o he_o many_o have_v a_o great_a portion_n to_o look_v on_o they_o have_v a_o great_a stock_n of_o peace_n and_o knowledge_n and_o hope_n and_o confidence_n i_o but_o a_o worm_n eat_v through_o the_o gourd_n in_o a_o night_n riches_n make_v they_o wing_n and_o flee_v away_o thus_o be_v the_o hope_n of_o the_o hypocrite_n his_o house_n fall_v when_o he_o come_v to_o lean_v on_o it_o his_o great_a bulk_n of_o confidence_n be_v but_o a_o heap_n of_o chaff_n which_o the_o wind_n soon_o blow_v away_o but_o david_n can_v say_v the_o lord_n be_v my_o portion_n i_o have_v enough_o the_o lord_n live_v and_o bless_v be_v the_o rock_n of_o my_o salvation_n 2._o what_o be_v it_o to_o be_v a_o heir_n to_o be_v a_o heir_n be_v to_o be_v bear_v with_o a_o right_n and_o title_n to_o a_o inheritance_n to_o have_v a_o estate_n fall_v to_o one_o by_o right_n so_o that_o it_o can_v be_v cut_v off_o it_o can_v neither_o be_v sell_v nor_o give_v away_o from_o the_o heir_n now_o this_o be_v wonderful_a to_o be_v bear_v with_o such_o a_o right_n and_o title_n to_o eternal_a life_n such_o a_o near_a interest_n in_o the_o lord_n that_o nothing_o can_v separate_v from_o he_o neither_o tribulation_n nor_o suffering_n nor_o life_n

and_o this_o man_n will_v never_o choose_v to_o have_v these_o contrary_a being_n live_v so_o near_o together_o if_o the_o soul_n be_v once_o in_o the_o ministry_n of_o circumcision_n with_o peter_n than_o it_o will_v by_o no_o mean_n touch_v any_o thing_n common_a or_o unclean_a but_o the_o promise_n be_v that_o the_o lion_n and_o the_o lamb_n and_o the_o ox_n and_o the_o bear_n shall_v lie_v down_o together_o and_o yet_o do_v no_o hurt_n in_o all_o the_o holy_a mountain_n yet_o observe_v there_o be_v a_o difference_n make_v but_o two_o of_o a_o sort_n of_o all_o the_o unclean_a be_v to_o be_v keep_v but_o of_o all_o the_o clean_a seven_o couple_n which_o have_v this_o in_o it_o to_o show_v that_o however_o here_o sin_n and_o righteousness_n dwell_v together_o in_o the_o ark_n yet_o there_o be_v more_o for_o we_o then_o against_o we_o seven_o couple_n of_o the_o clean_a sort_n a_o complete_a number_n of_o the_o righteous_a seed_n and_o but_o some_o few_o relic_n of_o sin_n yet_o a_o spawn_n live_v to_o keep_v the_o soul_n in_o awe_n always_o lest_o it_o shall_v increase_v and_o multiply_v and_o that_o there_o may_v ever_o be_v a_o cry_v out_o against_o this_o body_n of_o death_n for_o it_o be_v a_o wearisome_a condition_n at_o best_a and_o full_a of_o snare_n these_o unclean_a beast_n can_v but_o be_v ill_a companion_n for_o the_o clean_a have_v always_o a_o devour_a mind_n if_o it_o be_v possible_a to_o destroy_v they_o then_o in_o this_o ark_n noah_n have_v a_o dove_n to_o send_v out_o to_o bring_v tiding_n to_o he_o how_o it_o go_v abroad_o which_o have_v this_o meaning_n in_o it_o that_o who_o ever_o have_v indeed_o build_v this_o ark_n attain_v to_o a_o certain_a estate_n of_o salvation_n the_o holy_a ghost_n be_v give_v they_o to_o go_v to_o god_n for_o they_o in_o all_o strait_n we_o know_v not_o how_o to_o pray_v but_o the_o spirit_n itself_o help_v our_o infirmity_n this_o be_v the_o messenger_n between_o god_n and_o the_o soul_n in_o all_o strait_n and_o distress_n what_o time_n as_o i_o be_o afflict_v say_v david_n i_o will_v pray_v unto_o thou_o o_o lord_n if_o you_o have_v but_o a_o heart_n to_o consider_v it_o when_o your_o house_n be_v on_o fire_n and_o the_o enemy_n at_o hand_n when_o you_o be_v compass_v about_o with_o fear_n and_o misery_n and_o distress_n as_o you_o will_v be_v and_o yet_o no_o messenger_n be_v at_o hand_n to_o send_v to_o inquire_v of_o god_n and_o know_v his_o meaning_n and_o what_o he_o intend_v and_o what_o the_o end_n shall_v be_v o_o how_o miserable_a be_v it_o to_o be_v leave_v alone_o without_o this_o comforter_n there_o be_v many_o that_o set_v themselves_o to_o pray_v and_o speak_v word_n but_o alas_o he_o hear_v not_o any_o for_o their_o much_o babble_n if_o there_o be_v not_o this_o holy_a ghost_n that_o proceed_v from_o he_o to_o go_v to_o he_o he_o hear_v not_o other_o cry_n and_o noise_n though_o they_o howl_v on_o their_o bed_n and_o abase_v themselves_o to_o hell_n he_o matter_n not_o the_o father_n will_v hear_v none_o but_o his_o own_o spirit_n and_o that_o know_v how_o to_o get_v nigh_o he_o to_o hold_v he_o fast_o and_o plead_v with_o he_o i_o will_v not_o let_v thou_o go_v unless_o thou_o bless_v i_o and_o if_o this_o dove_n return_v once_o without_o the_o olive_n branch_n yet_o it_o have_v no_o rest_n but_o go_v out_o again_o till_o it_o obtain_v a_o blessing_n and_o bring_v tiding_n of_o peace_n now_o can_v any_o of_o you_o answer_v that_o question_n of_o peter_n have_v you_o receive_v this_o holy_a ghost_n after_o you_o believe_v you_o have_v believe_v indeed_o i_o know_v and_o it_o live_v in_o your_o conscience_n that_o truth_n be_v here_o and_o god_n be_v among_o we_o that_o here_o be_v the_o word_n of_o eternal_a life_n but_o now_o have_v thou_o receive_v the_o holy_a ghost_n after_o this_o believe_v else_o what_o a_o miserable_a plunge_n must_v thou_o needs_o be_v at_o when_o strait_n and_o trial_n come_v as_o thick_a as_o

to_o live_v in_o darkness_n and_o judge_v all_o thing_n like_o beast_n which_o know_v no_o far_o than_o they_o feel_v in_o all_o that_o befall_v they_o now_o i_o will_v proceed_v to_o speak_v of_o the_o consequent_n or_o effect_n which_o follow_v this_o build_n of_o the_o ark_n and_o they_o be_v lay_v down_o in_o the_o word_n to_o be_v these_o three_o 1._o noah_n do_v it_o to_o the_o save_n of_o his_o house_n 2._o he_o condemn_v the_o world_n by_o it_o 3._o he_o become_v heir_n of_o the_o righteousness_n which_o be_v by_o faith_n 1._o he_o save_v his_o house_n by_o it_o it_o be_v worth_a
