god_n have_v send_v on_o purpose_n to_o disturb_v they_o god_n do_v not_o afflict_v man_n without_o the_o spirit_n to_o exercise_v their_o patience_n but_o to_o disturb_v their_o peace_n and_o

to_o ruin_v this_o be_v the_o best_a of_o their_o consolation_n in_o the_o time_n of_o their_o trouble_n 3._o three_o if_o they_o do_v promise_n to_o themselves_o any_o thing_n of_o the_o care_n of_o

so_o be_v they_o as_o to_o all_o their_o relief_n that_o they_o promise_v to_o receive_v from_o god_n and_o the_o support_n which_o they_o seem_v to_o have_v from_o he_o when_o they_o be_v awake_v at_o the_o latter_a day_n and_o see_v all_o thing_n clear_o they_o will_v find_v that_o god_n be_v their_o enemy_n laugh_v at_o their_o calamity_n and_o mock_v when_o their_o fear_n be_v on_o they_o
