of_o these_o be_v very_o small_a nay_o rather_o man_n walk_v so_o rash_o and_o heady_o as_o you_o will_v say_v there_o be_v no_o religion_n at_o all_o all_o the_o world_n see_v it_o also_o we_o see_v that_o iniquity_n reign_v extreme_o even_o in_o such_o wise_a as_o the_o most_o part_n of_o man_n be_v become_v shameless_a and_o be_v no_o more_o ashamed_a to_o do_v evil_a we_o see_v thing_n thus_o confuse_v and_o yet_o which_o be_v they_o who_o we_o esteem_v to_o be_v most_o in_o god_n favour_n even_o the_o worst_a and_o such_o as_o be_v further_a out_o of_o square_a conditional_o that_o they_o be_v subtle_a and_o sharp_a witted_a too_o bring_v their_o matter_n well_o about_o for_o if_o they_o be_v full_a of_o wile_n and_o shift_n then_o behold_v they_o be_v wise_a and_o discrete_a man_n but_o although_o the_o wicked_a be_v have_v in_o such_o estimation_n and_o every_o man_n make_v much_o of_o they_o yet_o let_v we_o hold_v they_o accurse_v because_o god_n be_v at_o odds_n with_o they_o and_o can_v show_v they_o any_o favour_n and_o herewithal_o let_v we_o curse_v the_o evil_a man_n yea_o and_o let_v we_o do_v it_o out_o of_o hand_n that_o be_v too_o say_v let_v we_o not_o tarry_v till_o god_n lift_v up_o his_o hand_n and_o work_n by_o some_o manifest_a mean_n for_o that_o be_v too_o do_v he_o very_o small_a honour_n and_o to_o make_v no_o further_o account_v of_o his_o justice_n than_o we_o see_v it_o in_o execution_n but_o when_o the_o wicked_a man_n be_v in_o their_o bravery_n and_o be_v proud_a of_o their_o good_a fortune_n as_o they_o term_v it_o then_o let_v we_o take_v scorn_n of_o they_o and_o abhor_v they_o and_o let_v we_o hold_v they_o for_o accurse_a whatsoever_o come_v of_o it_o special_o we_o ought_v to_o mark_v well_o that_o which_o eliphas_n add_v which_o be_v that_o the_o child_n of_o they_o that_o despise_v god_n shall_v fall_v down_o in_o the_o gate_n and_o shall_v be_v set_v far_o from_o salvation_n and_o no_o man_n shall_v succour_v they_o he_o do_v we_o too_o understand_v that_o if_o god_n accomplish_v not_o his_o judgement_n here_o he_o can_v well_o work_v they_o upon_o the_o offspring_n of_o such_o as_o shall_v seem_v too_o have_v escape_v his_o hand_n how_o be_v that_o there_o may_v be_v some_o that_o shall_v give_v themselves_o whole_o unto_o evil_n so_o long_o as_o they_o live_v and_o god_n shall_v suffer_v they_o too_o gather_v good_n and_o too_o increase_v continual_o and_o to_o heap_v up_o riches_n anew_o even_o till_o their_o die_a day_n and_o yet_o notwithstanding_o for_o all_o this_o they_o be_v curse_a and_o their_o riches_n and_o revenue_n be_v curse_a as_o well_o as_o they_o not_o that_o the_o curse_n be_v perceive_v in_o the_o person_n of_o the_o father_n but_o because_o it_o shall_v show_v itself_o in_o his_o child_n hereby_o we_o be_v admonish_v that_o god_n have_v diverse_a manner_n of_o execute_v his_o vengeance_n and_o therefore_o let_v we_o learn_v too_o walk_v in_o fear_n and_o advisedness_n very_o at_o the_o first_o sight_n it_o may_v seem_v strange_a why_o god_n shall_v punish_v child_n for_o their_o father_n sake_n but_o yet_o this_o doctrine_n be_v rife_a enough_o in_o the_o scripture_n and_o beside_o this_o it_o be_v mean_v here_o of_o such_o as_o be_v like_o their_o father_n for_o god_n do_v well_o show_v himself_o to_o be_v the_o saviour_n of_o such_o as_o be_v bear_v and_o descend_v of_o evil_a ancestor_n as_o we_o see_v example_n of_o it_o in_o holy_a scripture_n but_o yet_o for_o all_o that_o it_o fall_v out_o most_o common_o that_o the_o issue_n of_o the_o wicked_a sort_n be_v accurse_v according_a also_o as_o god_n avouch_v that_o he_o will_v pursue_v his_o vengeance_n to_o the_o three_o and_o four_o generation_n upon_o those_o that_o despise_v he_o and_o lift_v up_o themselves_o against_o he_o and_o there_o be_v a_o double_a manner_n of_o punish_v the_o wickedness_n of_o the_o father_n upon_o their_o child_n for_o sometime_o god_n show_v mercy_n too_o the_o child_n and_o yet_o notwithstanding_o cess_v not_o to_o chastise_v the_o unrighteousness_n of_o their_o father_n in_o the_o person_n of_o their_o child_n as_o for_o example_n we_o see_v a_o father_n that_o have_v get_v much_o good_n how_o be_v it_o by_o wicked_a bargain_n by_o subtlety_n by_o craft_n and_o by_o cruelty_n and_o yet_o will_v god_n have_v pity_n upon_o the_o child_n of_o such_o a_o man_n and_o what_o will_v he_o do_v he_o will_v rid_v he_o quite_o and_o clean_o of_o all_o those_o evil_n get_v good_n because_o they_o will_v but_o bring_v he_o too_o confusion_n according_a as_o it_o be_v say_v that_o such_o kind_n of_o riches_n be_v as_o wood_n which_o in_o the_o end_n will_v kindle_v the_o fire_n of_o god_n wrath_n therefore_o when_o our_o lord_n mean_v too_o save_o the_o child_n of_o a_o wicked_a man_n that_o have_v live_v amiss_o he_o bereave_v he_o of_o all_o his_o evil_n get_v good_n as_o though_o he_o shall_v let_v he_o blood_n to_o save_v his_o life_n that_o he_o may_v not_o be_v wrap_v in_o the_o mischief_n and_o corruption_n which_o his_o father_n have_v draw_v unto_o himself_o behold_v how_o god_n punish_v the_o wickedness_n of_o the_o father_n upon_o the_o child_n and_o yet_o cease_v not_o to_o be_v the_o saviour_n of_o the_o child_n and_o too_o show_v they_o mercy_n sometime_o he_o pass_v further_o and_o because_o the_o father_n have_v be_v so_o far_o out_o of_o all_o square_a as_o they_o have_v lead_v a_o stubborn_a froward_a life_n god_n forsake_v their_o offspring_n insomuch_o that_o the_o grace_n of_o his_o holy_a spirit_n dwell_v not_o with_o they_o now_o when_o we_o be_v so_o destitute_a of_o god_n guide_v we_o must_v needs_o run_v into_o destruction_n and_o needs_o must_v the_o mischief_n increase_v more_o and_o more_o thus_o we_o see_v that_o when_o the_o child_n of_o the_o ungodly_a do_v bear_v the_o sin_n of_o their_o father_n it_o be_v not_o only_o for_o that_o god_n forsake_v they_o and_o leave_v they_o up_o in_o the_o state_n of_o their_o own_o nature_n but_o also_o for_o that_o he_o give_v satan_n full_a power_n over_o they_o and_o let_v he_o have_v the_o bridle_n too_o reign_v in_o such_o house_n at_o his_o own_o pleasure_n and_o when_o the_o devil_n have_v lead_v away_o the_o father_n and_o carry_v they_o too_o all_o naughtiness_n their_o child_n shall_v also_o overshoot_v themselves_o into_o excessive_a outrage_n we_o see_v then_o as_o now_o what_o be_v mean_v here_o that_o be_v too_o wit_n that_o when_o the_o child_n of_o wicked_a man_n be_v once_o

can_v be_v yea_o &_o with_o very_o bitter_a one_o that_o be_v to_o wit_n that_o he_o be_v torment_v inward_o because_o god_n be_v as_o it_o be_v his_o mortal_a enemy_n certess_n he_o say_v that_o

to_o show_v that_o god_n have_v crassh_v and_o break_v his_o bone_n as_o a_o lion_n that_o hold_v he_o in_o his_o paw_n and_o tooth_n but_o how_o can_v god_n be_v liken_v to_o a_o lion_n which_o be_v so_o cruel_a a_o beast_n no_o ezechias_n ment_fw-la not_o to_o accuse_v god_n of_o cruelty_n but_o he_o speak_v of_o his_o own_o feel_n and_o of_o the_o terrible_a pain_n that_o he_o endure_v when_o god_n wrath_n be_v upon_o he_o so_o then_o let_v we_o mark_v that_o when_o a_o poor_a creature_n enter_v into_o doubt_v in_o what_o case_n he_o be_v with_o god_n and_o perceive_v not_o that_o god_n

wilful_o and_o why_o for_o we_o mind_n not_o to_o come_v unto_o god_n no_o we_o must_v be_v fain_o too_o be_v enforce_v thither_o or_o else_o he_o
that_o happen_v chief_o in_o the_o desert_n country_n and_o in_o the_o hot_a land_n where_o there_o be_v great_a store_n of_o wild_a beast_n and_o when_o it_o come_v so_o to_o pass_v god_n warn_v we_o thereby_o that_o the_o same_o mischief_n shall_v be_v universal_a if_o he_o provide_v not_o otherwise_o for_o it_o for_o when_o we_o see_v that_o wild_a beast_n devour_v man_n after_o that_o sort_n therein_o we_o have_v fair_a lookingglass_n whereof_o be_v it_o long_o that_o they_o follow_v not_o on_o forward_a and_o that_o they_o range_v not_o out_o unto_o man_n house_n and_o consume_v not_o all_o must_v not_o the_o set_n of_o that_o stop_n in_o their_o way_n need_v be_v of_o god_n hand_n it_o be_v not_o man_n policy_n that_o prevent_v it_o so_o then_o let_v we_o magnify_v our_o god_n for_o vouchsafe_v to_o feed_v the_o wild_a beast_n in_o such_o wise_a as_o we_o live_v in_o the_o world_n and_o enjoy_v the_o benefit_n that_o he_o have_v bestow_v upon_o we_o and_o furthermore_o upon_o the_o read_n of_o this_o text_n let_v we_o remember_v also_o how_o it_o be_v say_v in_o the_o four_o and_o thirtith_a psalm_n that_o although_o the_o lion_n be_v so_o strong_a and_o seek_v their_o prey_n with_o such_o violence_n yet_o they_o suffer_v hunger_n and_o although_o it_o pass_v man_n power_n to_o satisfy_v they_o and_o that_o they_o suffer_v hunger_n yet_o will_v god_n always_o nourish_v those_o that_o be_v he_o and_o this_o comparison_n be_v well_o worthy_a to_o be_v mark_v for_o if_o god_n feed_v the_o lion_n which_o be_v wild_a and_o terrible_a beast_n yea_o and_o irksome_a to_o our_o nature_n how_o shall_v he_o not_o feed_v man_n which_o be_v create_v after_o his_o own_o image_n and_o who_o he_o term_v his_o child_n special_o ought_v they_o to_o doubt_v that_o he_o will_v nourish_v they_o when_o they_o call_v upon_o he_o as_o their_o father_n in_o true_a faith_n and_o when_o his_o holy_a spirit_n reign_v in_o their_o heart_n think_v we_o then_o that_o god_n will_v forsake_v we_o if_o we_o flee_v unto_o he_o for_o refuge_n see_v he_o feed_v the_o wild_a beast_n and_o give_v food_n to_o the_o raven_n as_o shall_v be_v say_v anon_o so_o then_o we_o see_v that_o this_o serve_v we_o to_o double_a use_n the_o one_o be_v that_o we_o must_v hold_v of_o god_n wonderful_a goodness_n in_o that_o he_o provide_v food_n for_o the_o lion_n and_o all_o other_o beast_n so_o as_o we_o be_v preserve_v in_o the_o midst_n of_o they_o and_o the_o other_o be_v that_o if_o god_n feed_v the_o lion_n and_o wild_a beast_n it_o be_v much_o more_o likely_a that_o he_o will_v be_v careful_a to_o feed_v we_o because_o we_o be_v his_o child_n and_o that_o see_v he_o command_v we_o to_o come_v unto_o he_o and_o to_o seek_v he_o he_o will_v deal_v we_o our_o ordinary_a bread_n and_o feed_v we_o because_o we_o have_v not_o any_o thing_n but_o that_o which_o he_o give_v we_o this_o in_o effect_n be_v the_o thing_n that_o we_o have_v to_o mark_v upon_o this_o text_n now_o it_o be_v say_v immediate_o after_o of_o the_o raven_n that_o god_n feed_v they_o both_o they_o and_o their_o young_a one_o when_o they_o cry_v unto_o he_o true_a it_o be_v that_o the_o little_a bird_n have_v not_o understand_v to_o cry_v unto_o god_n neither_o have_v they_o speech_n to_o speak_v with_o and_o much_o less_o be_v they_o lead_v in_o that_o case_n by_o true_a faith_n but_o yet_o notwithstanding_o for_o as_o much_o as_o they_o lack_v food_n and_o have_v no_o mean_n to_o sustain_v themselves_o in_o this_o world_n therefore_o it_o be_v say_v that_o they_o cry_v unto_o god_n according_a as_o it_o be_v say_v in_o the_o psalm_n where_o the_o self_n same_o manner_n of_o speech_n be_v use_v and_o this_o say_n ought_v too_o be_v weigh_v well_o for_o it_o be_v a_o great_a confirmation_n of_o the_o thing_n that_o have_v be_v say_v that_o be_v to_o wit_n that_o if_o god_n feed_v the_o wild_a beast_n which_o howl_v and_o cry_v and_o bray_v without_o know_v that_o there_o be_v a_o maker_n which_o shall_v nourish_v they_o what_o ought_v they_o to_o do_v which_o be_v sure_a that_o god_n who_o have_v set_v they_o in_o the_o world_n reserve_v to_o himself_o the_o office_n of_o maintain_v they_o and_o of_o give_v they_o what_o so_o ever_o they_o have_v need_n of_o think_v we_o that_o he_o will_v fail_v they_o again_o let_v we_o first_o of_o all_o mark_n what_o be_v mean_v by_o this_o word_n cry_n the_o raven_n bird_n do_v cry_v unto_o god._n why_o so_o not_o for_o that_o they_o cry_v in_o faith_n or_o understanding_n not_o for_o that_o they_o pray_v as_o man_n be_v teach_v to_o do_v but_o for_o that_o they_o cry_v for_o want_v of_o mean_n to_o help_v themselves_o behold_v then_o the_o raven_n bird_n be_v a_o hunger_a their_o dam_n fly_v abroad_o to_o seek_v their_o prey_n and_o sometime_o they_o find_v none_o in_o the_o mean_a while_n their_o young_a one_o be_v half_o starve_v and_o no_o body_n provide_v for_o they_o now_o be_v god_n fain_o to_o put_v to_o his_o help_a hand_n whether_o it_o be_v by_o give_v they_o worm_n to_o job_n at_o or_o by_o some_o other_o secret_a mean_n thus_o you_o see_v how_o the_o young_a raven_n do_v cry_v unto_o god_n the_o like_a may_v be_v say_v of_o all_o other_o beast_n namely_o that_o when_o they_o be_v helpless_a they_o resort_v unto_o god_n not_o that_o they_o do_v it_o of_o any_o understanding_n but_o the_o case_n be_v such_o as_o they_o may_v well_o wander_v in_o the_o world_n &_o be_v still_o destitute_a of_o all_o succour_n so_o as_o there_o be_v no_o shift_n but_o that_o god_n must_v reach_v out_o his_o hand_n and_o of_o his_o goodness_n give_v they_o the_o thing_n they_o have_v need_n of_o but_o now_o let_v we_o return_v to_o the_o foresay_a comparison_n between_o ourselves_o and_o the_o brute_n beast_n for_o see_v it_o be_v say_v that_o god_n show_v himself_o bountiful_a when_o the_o beast_n be_v destitute_a of_o natural_a mean_n to_o help_v themselves_o and_o that_o it_o be_v all_o one_o as_o if_o they_o repair_v unto_o he_o what_o ought_v we_o to_o do_v for_o although_o we_o have_v abundance_n even_o till_o we_o be_v ready_a to_o parbreak_n our_o good_n up_o again_o yet_o must_v we_o always_o understand_v that_o the_o thing_n which_o we_o have_v be_v give_v we_o of_o god_n own_o hand_n and_o if_o we_o happen_v to_o suffer_v penury_n and_o want_n we_o be_v so_o much_o the_o more_o provoke_v to_o repair_v unto_o he_o therefore_o man_n must_v not_o shrink_v back_o nor_o chafe_v upon_o the_o bridle_n when_o they_o find_v themselves_o destitute_a of_o help_n what_o must_v they_o do_v then_o let_v they_o think_v thus_o with_o themselves_o behold_v god_n call_v we_o to_o he_o and_o in_o good_a sooth_n he_o declare_v and_o protest_v that_o his_o mind_n be_v after_o a_o sort_n to_o provoke_v the_o beast_n to_o repair_v unto_o he_o and_o therein_o also_o to_o show_v himself_o to_o be_v the_o sovereign_a governor_n for_o otherwise_o he_o shall_v leave_v nothing_o in_o the_o world_n but_o all_o shall_v lie_v waist_n how_o much_o more_o than_o ought_v i_o to_o repair_v unto_o he_o now_o then_o let_v we_o mark_v well_o that_o whensoever_o we_o want_v provision_n so_o as_o we_o wot_v not_o where_o to_o become_v or_o which_o way_n to_o turn_v we_o it_o be_v asmuch_o as_n if_o god_n tell_v we_o that_o it_o be_v his_o charge_n to_o give_v we_o whatsoever_o be_v meet_v for_o we_o &_o that_o by_o the_o same_o mean_n he_o will_v have_v our_o whole_a trust_n settle_v in_o he_o and_o when_o we_o have_v such_o belief_n and_o inward_a feel_n prayer_n and_o supplication_n must_v be_v match_v with_o it_o out_o of_o hand_n for_o whosoever_o brag_v that_o he_o wait_v for_o his_o sustenance_n and_o food_n at_o god_n hand_n and_o yet_o in_o the_o mean_a while_o vouchsafe_v not_o to_o call_v upon_o he_o for_o it_o do_v he_o not_o show_v that_o there_o be_v nothing_o else_o but_o hypocrisy_n &_o lease_v in_o he_o therefore_o faith_n must_v stir_v we_o up_o &_o drive_v we_o to_o call_v upon_o god_n to_o the_o end_n we_o may_v confess_v he_o to_o be_v our_o fosterfather_n and_o receive_v our_o food_n as_o it_o be_v at_o his_o hand_n and_o upon_o the_o receipt_n thereof_o acknowledge_v ourselves_o to_o be_v nourish_v by_o his_o mere_a goodness_n thus_o you_o see_v after_o what_o manner_n we_o ought_v too_o put_v this_o text_n in_o ure_n furthermore_o it_o behove_v we_o to_o come_v yet_o to_o a_o high_a comparison_n which_o be_v that_o sith_o we_o understand_v that_o god_n feed_v our_o body_n after_o that_o sort_n it_o be_v much_o

as_o it_o be_v say_v in_o the_o fifteen_o psalm_n for_o we_o must_v have_v none_o in_o estimation_n but_o such_o as_o walk_v in_o the_o fear_n of_o god_n behold_v who_o ought_v to_o be_v honourable_a

that_o we_o may_v judge_v according_o with_o god_n and_o therewithal_o let_v we_o also_o practice_v the_o thing_n that_o be_v set_v down_o here_o when_o eliphas_n say_v that_o he_o out_o of_o hand_n

all_o thing_n that_o can_v be_v see_v in_o the_o world_n and_o therefore_o let_v we_o not_o say_v i_o believe_v in_o god_n because_o he_o maintain_v i_o because_o he_o give_v i_o health_n and_o because_o he_o nourish_v i_o but_o i_o believe_v in_o god_n because_o he_o have_v give_v i_o heretofore_o some_o taste_n of_o his_o goodness_n and_o power_n in_o have_v a_o care_n of_o this_o body_n which_o be_v but_o rottenness_n so_o as_o i_o see_v he_o show_v himself_o a_o father_n in_o that_o i_o have_v a_o be_v through_o the_o power_n of_o his_o spirit_n i_o believe_v in_o he_o alone_o

thus_o you_o see_v what_o our_o belief_n must_v be_v if_o it_o be_v well_o rule_v and_o if_o we_o be_v once_o so_o well_o dispose_v we_o may_v say_v with_o job_n well_o very_o i_o see_v my_o body_n

small_a a_o infirmity_n in_o my_o flesh_n but_o the_o same_o be_v to_o i_o a_o messenger_n of_o death_n but_o yet_o for_o all_o that_o i_o shall_v see_v my_o god_n if_o we_o can_v speak_v so_o when_o we_o see_v that_o our_o strength_n droup_v and_o vanish_v away_o by_o little_a and_o little_a that_o although_o it_o please_v god_n to_o smite_v we_o in_o such_o wise_a as_o we_o shall_v in_o manner_n

not_o cease_v look_v unto_o his_o god_n yet_o shall_v we_o not_o cease_v too_o trust_v in_o god_n still_o after_o the_o example_n of_o job._n thus_o you_o see_v that_o the_o greatness_n of_o the_o

say_v if_o we_o consider_v well_o to_o what_o end_n he_o have_v create_v we_o and_o still_o maintain_v we_o in_o the_o world_n furthermore_o when_o job_n say_v that_o he_o shall_v see_v his_o redeemer_n in_o his_o flesh_n his_o meaning_n be_v as_o i_o say_v afore_o that_o he_o shall_v be_v restore_v to_o a_o new_a state_n though_o his_o skin_n be_v so_o eat_v as_o it_o be_v for_o he_o

he_o see_v he_o in_o his_o flesh_n â–ª_o that_o be_v to_o say_v i_o shall_v be_v set_v in_o my_o former_a state_n and_o see_v my_o god_n yet_o again_o and_o so_o he_o confess_v that_o god_n be_v

therefore_o let_v we_o say_v i_o trust_v in_o god_n because_o i_o see_v he_o assist_v i_o and_o fail_v i_o not_o in_o any_o thing_n but_o when_o god_n fail_v we_o and_o be_v as_o it_o be_v estrange_v

they_o can_v not_o always_o continue_v so_o this_o be_v the_o sum_n of_o that_o which_o job_n mean_v to_o entreat_v of_o here_o now_o we_o have_v to_o note_v first_o when_o he_o speak_v of_o the_o child_n that_o it_o be_v according_a too_o the_o common_a doctrine_n of_o the_o holy_a scripture_n that_o be_v to_o say_v that_o god_n bliss_v not_o only_o the_o faithful_a themselves_o but_o also_o continue_v his_o favour_n upon_o their_o child_n thus_o you_o see_v that_o god_n bear_v we_o such_o love_n as_o he_o be_v not_o content_a nor_o think_v it_o enough_o to_o have_v a_o care_n of_o our_o

likewise_o we_o see_v then_o how_o the_o goodness_n of_o god_n be_v describe_v unto_o we_o in_o the_o holy_a scripture_n that_o be_v that_o when_o he_o have_v receive_v we_o unto_o he_o and_o testify_v unto_o we_o that_o we_o be_v under_o his_o hand_n and_o protection_n he_o show_v also_o the_o same_o favour_n unto_o our_o child_n for_o our_o sake_n see_v it_o be_v so_o we_o have_v good_a cause_n to_o repose_v ourselves_o on_o he_o for_o we_o must_v conclude_v that_o if_o for_o our_o sake_n he_o continue_v his_o favour_n towards_o they_o that_o succeed_v we_o by_o a_o more_o strong_a reason_n we_o shall_v always_o find_v he_o a_o merciful_a father_n aught_v we_o then_o to_o mistrust_v he_o and_o his_o goodness_n see_v that_o he_o be_v so_o favourable_a as_o to_o have_v a_o care_n over_o they_o also_o that_o come_v of_o we_o now_o on_o the_o contrary_a part_n it_o be_v say_v that_o god_n curse_v the_o race_n of_o the_o wicked_a and_o how_o for_o they_o be_v destitute_a of_o the_o guide_n of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n so_o that_o all_o must_v go_v to_o naught_o and_o herein_o we_o have_v none_o occasion_n to_o murmur_v and_o grudge_v against_o god_n as_o there_o be_v some_o that_o will_v think_v it_o very_o strange_a what_o lie_v they_o be_v it_o possible_a that_o god_n shall_v punish_v the_o child_n for_o the_o father_n sake_n be_v it_o not_o say_v that_o he_o that_o sin_v shall_v bear_v his_o own_o iniquity_n and_o that_o the_o son_n shall_v not_o be_v punish_v for_o the_o father_n sake_n yes_o true_o and_o that_o in_o such_o sort_n as_o the_o son_n have_v no_o cause_n to_o complain_v as_o though_o he_o be_v righteous_a and_o that_o god_n notwithstanding_o that_o the_o punishment_n be_v due_a unto_o his_o father_n cause_v it_o to_o fall_v upon_o he_o who_o be_v innocent_a and_o guiltless_a for_o that_o can_v not_o happen_v but_o when_o it_o be_v say_v that_o god_n will_v requite_v the_o iniquity_n of_o the_o father_n into_o the_o bosom_n of_o the_o son_n it_o be_v not_o for_o that_o he_o do_v they_o any_o wrong_n but_o it_o be_v for_o that_o he_o leave_v the_o wicked_a there_o now_o when_o we_o be_v forsake_v of_o god_n what_o can_v we_o do_v but_o mischief_n thus_o we_o see_v then_o that_o god_n show_v not_o such_o favour_n to_o the_o wicked_a as_o too_o give_v they_o his_o holy_a spirit_n and_o so_o the_o devil_n must_v needs_o reign_v over_o they_o and_o stir_v they_o up_o too_o provoke_v the_o wrath_n of_o god_n more_o and_o more_o and_o too_o hasten_v their_o own_o destruction_n the_o child_n than_o be_v wrap_v up_o together_o with_o their_o father_n for_o when_o a_o house_n be_v curse_v of_o god_n the_o same_o be_v in_o the_o possession_n and_o thraldom_n of_o satan_n and_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n rule_v not_o there_o therefore_o the_o child_n be_v so_o punish_v for_o their_o father_n as_o it_o be_v a_o just_a judgement_n upon_o themselves_o also_o they_o can_v not_o say_v we_o be_v guiltless_a for_o they_o be_v find_v faulty_a before_o god_n as_o well_o as_o their_o father_n and_o on_o the_o contrary_a part_n when_o the_o child_n of_o the_o faithful_a continue_v follow_v the_o step_n of_o their_o father_n than_o the_o blessing_n of_o god_n appear_v so_o that_o man_n have_v not_o wherefore_o to_o glory_v in_o themselves_o the_o child_n will_v not_o say_v this_o heritage_n appertain_v unto_o we_o god_n cause_v we_o too_o prosper_v because_o our_o father_n be_v worthy_a to_o have_v such_o a_o succession_n no_o but_o the_o whole_a must_v be_v attribute_v to_o the_o only_a free_a goodness_n of_o god_n who_o work_v be_v not_o bind_v unto_o man_n neither_o owe_v they_o any_o thing_n but_o because_o it_o so_o please_v he_o this_o be_v it_o they_o that_o we_o have_v to_o learn_v when_o it_o be_v say_v that_o although_o god_n punish_v not_o the_o wicked_a at_o the_o first_o yet_o he_o will_v address_v himself_o to_o their_o child_n that_o be_v to_o say_v he_o will_v reserve_v punishment_n for_o they_o and_o this_o be_v to_o prosecute_v this_o matter_n that_o we_o must_v not_o give_v judgement_n upon_o the_o providence_n of_o god_n by_o that_o which_o may_v be_v see_v in_o this_o world_n but_o must_v quiet_v our_o mind_n and_o stay_v our_o judgement_n until_o god_n show_v that_o his_o time_n be_v come_v it_o become_v not_o we_o then_o to_o appoint_v the_o time_n man_n be_v froward_a when_o they_o make_v such_o haste_n but_o you_o see_v that_o god_n have_v a_o peculiar_a fashion_n in_o his_o do_n which_o be_v sometime_o strange_a unto_o we_o but_o yet_o must_v we_o humble_v our_o

to_o note_v upon_o this_o word_n to_o hide_v or_o reserve_v when_o it_o be_v say_v that_o god_n reserve_v for_o the_o child_n of_o the_o wicked_a the_o punishment_n that_o he_o have_v execute_v upon_o

we_o must_v hereunto_o apply_v our_o whole_a study_n for_o man_n of_o their_o own_o nature_n be_v so_o hasty_a and_o impatient_a that_o they_o will_v have_v god_n too_o set_v before_o their_o eye_n what_o he_o mind_v to_o do_v neither_o can_v we_o give_v place_n to_o his_o providence_n except_o he_o make_v his_o hand_n very_o manifest_a and_o on_o the_o contrary_a part_n upon_o what_o

his_o power_n against_o we_o after_o the_o manner_n of_o a_o tyrant_n which_o put_v no_o difference_n between_o good_a and_o bad_a but_o intend_v to_o try_v the_o uttermost_a of_o his_o power_n no_o god_n have_v no_o such_o lawless_a power_n as_o you_o may_v term_v it_o but_o as_o his_o power_n be_v infinite_a so_o be_v all_o his_o do_n indifferent_a and_o rightful_a true_a it_o be_v that_o we_o do_v not_o always_o perceive_v the_o reason_n of_o he_o work_v neither_o ought_v his_o righteousness_n to_o be_v inclose_v within_o so_o small_a a_o measure_n as_o our_o understanding_n but_o yet_o notwithstanding_o it_o behoove_v we_o always_o to_o be_v full_o persuade_v of_o this_o point_n that_o god_n be_v in_o such_o wise_a mighty_a as_o he_o dispose_v all_o thing_n with_o justice_n and_o uprightness_n furthermore_o let_v we_o not_o presume_v too_o call_v he_o to_o the_o law_n but_o let_v we_o assure_v ourselves_o that_o we_o must_v before_o all_o thing_n yield_v ourselves_o guilty_a and_o herewithal_o let_v we_o mark_v also_o that_o if_o we_o have_v liberty_n to_o plead_v it_o will_v not_o be_v for_o our_o profit_n for_o we_o shall_v always_o be_v find_v guilty_a and_o although_o that_o he_o judge_v we_o not_o yet_o will_v our_o own_o conscience_n condemn_v we_o and_o therefore_o let_v we_o learn_v too_o humble_a ourselves_o before_o god_n &_o to_o know_v that_o he_o have_v such_o power_n over_o we_o as_o he_o may_v just_o confound_v &_o overwhelm_v we_o yea_o and_o that_o with_o such_o rightfulness_n as_o we_o shall_v not_o have_v one_o word_n to_o answer_v which_o he_o can_v disprove_v if_o he_o listen_v but_o let_v we_o now_o come_v to_o that_o which_o eliutreat_v of_o chief_o here_o he_o find_v fault_n with_o job_n for_o complain_v that_o his_o plague_n be_v grievous_a and_o undeserved_a on_o his_o part_n and_o that_o god_n have_v so_o pervert_v his_o right_n that_o he_o be_v drive_v to_o be_v a_o liar_n although_o in_o very_a deed_n he_o have_v wherewith_o to_o justify_v himself_o you_o see_v here_o in_o effect_n what_o thing_n eliu_n charge_v job_n withal_o but_o let_v we_o consider_v whether_o job_n mean_v be_v so_o or_o no._n i_o have_v declare_v heretofore_o that_o job_n mean_v be_v not_o direct_o to_o blaspheme_v god_n howbeit_o that_o he_o exceed_v measure_n in_o his_o passion_n harken_v then_o where_o in_o job_n do_v amiss_o he_o know_v himself_o to_o be_v a_o sinner_n he_o confess_v himself_o to_o be_v so_o neither_o say_v he_o that_o god_n have_v no_o cause_n to_o punish_v he_o but_o yet_o in_o the_o mean_a while_o he_o compare_v himself_o with_o other_o &_o think_v that_o god_n handle_v he_o to_o rough_o thus_o the_o chief_a thing_n wherein_o job_n overshoot_v himself_o be_v that_o he_o conceive_v such_o a_o rigour_n in_o go_v 〈…〉_o as_o he_o think_v he_o to_o be_v oversore_n and_o that_o he_o ought_v not_o to_o have_v press_v he_o so_o hard_a consider_v that_o he_o be_v but_o a_o silly_a poor_a creature_n &_o that_o his_o life_n and_o strength_n be_v nothing_o but_o smoke_n but_o herein_o we_o can_v excuse_v he_o for_o i_o have_v tell_v you_o afore_o that_o in_o handle_v of_o a_o good_a case_n he_o follow_v not_o a_o good_a order_n like_o as_o his_o adversary_n deal_v in_o a_o evil_a case_n use_v good_a argument_n &_o substantial_a reason_n therefore_o as_o concern_v job_n although_o he_o have_v a_o rightful_a case_n yet_o do_v he_o misguyde_v it_o and_o why_o for_o although_o he_o be_v patient_a &_o determine_v to_o submit_v himself_o unto_o god_n yet_o do_v he_o not_o restrain_v his_o passion_n from_o all_o excess_n like_v as_o when_o a_o christian_a man_n endeavour_v to_o tame_v himself_o and_o to_o hold_v himself_o prisoner_n under_o the_o obedience_n of_o god_n he_o can_v do_v it_o with_o such_o perfection_n but_o that_o in_o the_o mean_a while_o he_o shall_v feel_v that_o the_o flesh_n fight_v against_o the_o spirit_n &_o that_o we_o do_v not_o the_o good_a which_o we_o will_v do_v as_o s._n paul_n say_v in_o which_o place_n he_o speak_v not_o of_o those_o that_o be_v fleshly_a and_o which_o give_v themselves_o the_o bridle_n in_o all_o evil_a but_o of_o such_o as_o have_v best_a zeal_n to_o serve_v &_o please_v god_n and_o sure_o he_o set_v forth_o himself_o for_o a_o example_n say_v that_o although_o he_o enforce_v himself_o asmuch_o as_n be_v possible_a for_o a_o mortal_a man_n to_o frame_v himself_o whole_o too_o the_o will_n of_o god_n yet_o be_v he_o not_o able_a to_o bring_v it_o thorough_o to_o pass_v for_o when_o the_o temptation_n be_v great_a and_o violent_a as_o they_o be_v in_o job_n it_o be_v impossible_a that_o we_o shall_v be_v so_o constant_a as_o not_o to_o be_v shake_v &_o that_o we_o shall_v not_o be_v tickle_v nor_o suffer_v much_o infirmity_n in_o the_o battle_n which_o we_o have_v against_o our_o flesh_n we_o see_v what_o happen_v to_o jacob_n he_o wrestle_v with_o a_o angel_n and_o therefore_o be_v call_v israel_n that_o be_v to_o say_v prevail_a with_o god_n but_o yet_o notwithstanding_o he_o halt_v and_o be_v fain_o too_o have_v a_o lame_a hip_n as_o long_o as_o he_o live_v to_o the_o end_n he_o may_v feel_v that_o he_o have_v not_o get_v that_o victory_n in_o such_o wise_n as_o there_o be_v no_o feebleness_n in_o he_o and_o that_o be_v a_o example_n and_o pattern_n for_o we_o that_o although_o god_n strengthen_v we_o by_o his_o power_n so_o as_o we_o overcome_v our_o temptation_n yet_o the_o same_o be_v not_o do_v without_o some_o mark_n of_o our_o infirmity_n even_o so_o happen_v it_o unto_o job_n and_o eliu_n do_v just_o reprove_v he_o here_o yet_o nevertheless_o elius_n mean_v be_v not_o that_o job_n intend_v to_o accuse_v god_n direct_o of_o unrighteousness_n and_o cruelty_n but_o he_o show_v that_o he_o do_v not_o so_o glorify_v god_n righteousness_n as_o he_o ought_v to_o do_v true_o he_o speak_v rough_o and_o seem_v to_o wrest_v job_n word_n &_o to_o make_v they_o worse_o than_o they_o be_v but_o let_v we_o mark_v that_o it_o be_v good_a reason_n that_o the_o holy_a ghost_n shall_v bewray_v the_o vice_n that_o be_v in_o we_o although_o they_o seem_v not_o great_a unto_o we_o as_o for_o example_n job_n confess_v here_o general_o that_o god_n be_v righteous_a yea_o and_o he_o knowledge_v he_o to_o be_v such_o a_o one_o even_o in_o his_o own_o person_n but_o yet_o be_v he_o toss_v so_o rough_o with_o his_o passion_n that_o it_o slip_v from_o he_o to_o say_v why_o do_v god_n punish_v i_o after_o this_o sort_n there_o be_v no_o reason_n why_o he_o shall_v do_v it_o and_o if_o i_o may_v plead_v my_o case_n i_o will_v show_v how_o i_o have_v not_o deserve_v that_o he_o shall_v be_v so_o violent_a against_o i_o such_o word_n escape_v from_o job_n without_o know_v what_o he_o say_v howbeit_o if_o a_o man_n examine_v his_o meaning_n it_o be_v not_o of_o the_o worst_a sort_n only_o he_o be_v carry_v away_o with_o his_o pang_n and_o it_o can_v not_o be_v that_o he_o shall_v not_o be_v so_o turmoil_v with_o his_o passion_n as_o not_o to_o skirmish_n against_o god_n why_o then_o do_v eliu_n reprove_v he_o now_o with_o such_o rigour_n because_o the_o least_o doubt_n
