judgement_n for_o as_o we_o can_v learn_v the_o one_o without_o observe_v of_o god_n mercy_n so_o we_o can_v attain_v to_o the_o other_o without_o mark_v his_o vengeance_n we_o must_v see_v always_o by_o the_o peculiar_a teach_n of_o god_n spirit_n how_o the_o lord_n punish_v in_o justice_n and_o yet_o in_o mercy_n in_o wrath_n and_o yet_o in_o love_n in_o rigour_n and_o hatred_n of_o our_o sin_n humble_v we_o with_o one_o hand_n in_o pity_n and_o compassion_n to_o our_o salvation_n comfort_v we_o with_o the_o other_o hand_n we_o see_v then_o how_o the_o prophet_n pray_v both_o to_o see_v they_o and_o to_o mark_v they_o we_o need_v teach_v this_o often_o because_o we_o dream_v so_o much_o of_o fatal_a necessity_n and_o of_o the_o connexion_n of_o natural_a cause_n or_o else_o because_o we_o can_v discern_v between_o the_o cross_n of_o the_o godly_a and_o the_o ungodly_a so_o that_o as_o the_o wise_a man_n say_v eccl_n 9_o 2._o all_o thing_n come_v alike_o to_o all_o man_n and_o

discern_v how_o by_o the_o selfsame_o mean_v the_o lord_n both_o humble_v the_o good_a and_o overthrow_v the_o wicked_a the_o meaning_n then_o of_o the_o man_n of_o god_n brief_o be_v o_o lord_n give_v i_o a_o right_a judgement_n in_o thy_o judgement_n that_o i_o may_v see_v how_o thou_o save_v thy_o child_n and_o punish_v thy_o enemy_n otherwise_o i_o shall_v never_o discerue_v this_o

the_o lord_n show_v favour_n so_o our_o prayer_n be_v not_o accept_v but_o as_o the_o lord_n in_o free_a mercy_n do_v gracious_o receive_v it_o wherefore_o it_o be_v say_v gen._n 4._o the_o lord_n have_v regard_n to_o abel_n &_o his_o oblation_n that_o be_v he_o accept_v favourable_o the_o sacrifice_n of_o abel_n thus_o we_o also_o use_v to_o deal_v in_o our_o suit_n to_o noble_a person_n if_o

in_o effect_n look_v upon_o this_o my_o prayer_n with_o a_o pitiful_a eye_n &_o a_o merciful_a countenance_n peter_n we_o be_v then_o to_o know_v how_o we_o by_o our_o prayer_n get_v no_o credit_n

will_v he_o be_v please_v with_o other_o thing_n the_o papist_n then_o be_v carnal_a and_o as_o our_o saviour_n christ_n say_v of_o peter_n who_o they_o follow_v in_o fault_n and_o not_o in_o grace_n they_o savour_v not_o of_o the_o thing_n of_o the_o spirit_n well_o we_o be_v to_o learn_v that_o if_o god_n so_o deal_v in_o our_o prayer_n he_o will_v so_o deal_v in_o all_o other_o thing_n which_o be_v the_o better_a by_o they_o the_o free_a will_n offer_v etc._n etc._n we_o be_v here_o also_o teach_v to_o give_v unto_o the_o lord_n a_o free_a offering_n for_o he_o love_v a_o cheerful_a giver_n and_o can_v abide_v we_o to_o come_v unto_o he_o by_o constraint_n the_o lord_n in_o the_o old_a time_n will_v have_v the_o fat_a of_o the_o flock_n &_o the_o pure_a and_o why_o because_o he_o will_v thereby_o try_v his_o people_n whether_o his_o people_n will_v offer_v cheerful_o and_o willing_o or_o 11.4.5_o no_o &_o by_o so_o much_o it_o be_v unto_o he_o more_o acceptable_a by_o how_o much_o it_o be_v offer_v more_o free_o so_o abel_n gen_n 4_o offer_v of_o the_o fat_a of_o the_o flock_n that_o be_v of_o the_o best_a a_o man_n sacrifice_n may_v be_v refuse_v because_o of_o his_o corruption_n in_o he_o and_o there_o be_v no_o grace_n in_o man_n without_o faith_n in_o christ_n which_o may_v stand_v he_o in_o steed_n to_o make_v his_o sacrifice_n acceptable_a before_o god_n we_o must_v they_o pray_v unto_o god_n that_o we_o may_v offer_v our_o prayer_n free_o that_o they_o may_v not_o be_v customable_a but_o that_o there_o may_v be_v in_o we_o a_o lust_n a_o spirit_n a_o desire_n to_o pray_v remember_v this_o say_n of_o the_o prophet_n accept_v the_o free_a will_n offer_v of_o my_o lip_n his_o meaning_n then_o of_o his_o word_n brief_o be_v this_o prayer_n much_o i_o do_v not_o this_o o_o lord_n constrain_o or_o against_o my_o will_n but_o with_o a_o free_a good_a will_n and_o cheerful_a heart_n i_o make_v my_o prayer_n unto_o thou_o we_o see_v then_o our_o

if_o we_o have_v a_o supplication_n to_o our_o prince_n will_v we_o come_v so_o sluggish_o so_o unreverent_o so_o careless_o as_o we_o come_v to_o pray_v not_o remember_v his_o majesty_n neither_o
