were latent which the doore shut the Christians silent their liues couped the Antebunni hymni and priuate Liturgie were solitarie now God euen our owne God hath blessed vs and all the ends of the world shall feare him This Gospell this woman this worke this memoriall shall be wheresoeuer A blessed worke that is so emblazoned Indi Scitha Thraces Sauromatae Roffensis detribus Magdal quique Mauritaniam quique Orthigias Insulas habitant quod in domicilio pauperis factum est à muliere magna voce praedicant saith Chrysostome Et vix pro Christiano habeatur qui non tenuerit nomen eius saith

whereof wee may reioyce and holy is his Name We must performe some seruice for him to glorifie his Name He hath beene made poore to make vs rich holy is his Name They that be rich should for his sake succour the poore to glorifie his Name Our Sauiour did euer some good worke at the Passeouer which was the greatest Feast of the whole yeere and the greatest worke of our Redemption hee performed at this Feast of the Passeouer Holy is his Name The act the feast the time the meeting the glad tidings the Gospell of this Passeouer this Gospell at the Passeouer should bring forth some fruit to glorifie his name To conclude therefore this last point Vse the vse hereof is to stirre vp all of vs to imitate their first practise who first heard this doctrine of Christs Passion and Resurrection Acts 2.23.24 Peter preached to some deuout men of euery Nation vnder heauen that Iesus whom they had crucified and slaine God had raised him vp from the dead This was this Gospell Obserue from the 41. verse the fruit of this preaching they gladly receiued this word 3000. soules were added to the Church in the 44. they beleeued and sold their possessions and goods and parted them to euery man that had need Here was the fruit of their faith Doct. the true vse of the Doctrine of Christs Death and Resurrection Beloued let the same minde be also in you The Christian Primitiues were no Possessiues the poore did not enuie the rich non enim ita diuites none were so rich saith Chrysostome the rich did not despise the poore for none were so poore They sold possessions to releeue the necessities and wants of the Saints To doe good therefore and to distribute forget not for with such sacrifices God is pleased Conclusion And such sacrifices this day haue ye offered Our Sauiour at the Passeouer saith Rupertus R●ert fed the 5000. the number is great that yee haue fedde cloathed cured LONDON is rep esented here like L●dia the purple seller or as Dorcas full of goo● wo●kes and almesdeeds wh●ch

with the odour of your ointment Posteritie wi●l honour your memory the Christian world in the dayes of your Childrens children shall reioyce in your memoriall Not fame onely but God shall make you a monument that shall neuer haue an end I hope you haue also annointed Christs head at this solemne meeting by celebrating the great feast of Christs resurrection to the glory of God the Father the same minde should be in vs the same minde should be intended by vs it was his end it should be our end To end all then if this be our end why should we doubt but the Angell wil descend at this time into the poole of Bethesda and some impotent man that neuer yet did good may bee healed Some dry withered-couetous hand may be cured You haue duely obserued Christs rule in the feast now you keepe the feast you haue called the poore and the same and the blinde This feast is the time that the Iewes kept their feast of first fruits The first fruits of Zacheus faith are found Luk. 19.8 Behold Lord the halfe of my goods I giue to the poore If Zacheus be dead without issue yet at least let euery one doe some good euery one carry home some spikenard to embalme their bodies for the buriall euery one bring forth some fruit of the resurrection euery one adde somewhat to the ioy of the Angels in heauen If all the Angels reioyce at the conversion of a sinner ô what is the ioy at this feast in heauen for the resurrection of our Sauiour Euery tree and pl●nt and fruit and flower and herbe for the vse of man creepes out of the earth to celebrate the resurrection of Christ Doth God cloth the grasse of the earth the lillyes of the field how much more careth he for you ô yee of little faith Let euery one at this feast of first fruits bring forth some fruit worthy amendment of life Euery one hath his talent euery one shall beare his owne burthen euery one shall stand before the Tribunall seat of God euery tree that bringeth not forth good fruit shall be hewen downe and euery mans blood shall be on his owne head and tribulation and anguish shall be on euery wicked soule but glory honour and peace and immortalitie to euery man that worketh good and to the Israel of God and all shall liue to the glory of God the father Glory be to this God the Father to Christ Iesus his Sonne our Sauiour and to the Holy Ghost his Spirit our comforter as it was in the beginning so now let it be in this place and in all congregations of the Saints this day and all the daies of our liues for euermore Amen Amen FINIS
