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

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

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

why_o it_o be_v say_v that_o they_o shall_v be_v destitute_a of_o help_n and_o that_o they_o shall_v fall_v down_o at_o the_o gate_n that_o be_v too_o wit_n because_o they_o shall_v fall_v not_o in_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

that_o they_o have_v not_o a_o pure_a and_o rightmeen_a mind_n to_o go_v unto_o god_n true_a it_o be_v that_o they_o may_v well_o have_v some_o show_n of_o devotion_n as_o we_o see_v among_o the_o

that_o the_o thing_n which_o we_o have_v to_o mark_v in_o this_o text_n be_v that_o although_o the_o wretched_a paynim_n dwell_v in_o darkness_n and_o may_v be_v liken_v to_o blind_a man_n which_o

and_o that_o we_o be_v cleeresighted_a and_o to_o be_v short_a that_o we_o have_v a_o freedom_n to_o do_v good_a or_o evil_n but_o it_o be_v too_o great_a a_o beastliness_n too_o reason_n after_o

with_o the_o other_o namely_o that_o by_o reason_n of_o sin_n we_o be_v all_o of_o we_o bereave_v of_o reason_n and_o understanding_n see_v how_o the_o heritage_n which_o we_o have_v of_o our_o

therefore_o we_o be_v enemy_n unto_o god_n and_o all_o our_o thought_n and_o imagination_n be_v enmity_n too_o his_o righteousness_n according_a as_o saint_n paul_n speak_v in_o the_o eight_o to_o the_o roman_n then_o be_v we_o ignorant_a and_o yet_o in_o the_o mean_a while_n cease_v not_o to_o be_v froward_a we_o know_v not_o which_o way_n to_o go_v and_o yet_o therewithal_o we_o go_v astray_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

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

because_o he_o have_v print_v his_o image_n in_o they_o special_o in_o the_o faithful_a for_o asmuch_o as_o they_o be_v reform_v to_o the_o likeness_n of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n who_o be_v

acknowledge_v they_o to_o be_v as_o it_o be_v the_o son_n of_o god_n for_o asmuch_o as_o we_o may_v not_o separate_v the_o virtue_n that_o be_v in_o they_o from_o the_o virtue_n of_o god_n because_o they_o be_v as_o stream_n that_o gush_v out_o of_o that_o fountain_n &_o spring_n and_o we_o must_v always_o repair_v thither_o let_v we_o know_v they_o that_o this_o honour_n of_o be_v take_v &_o

have_v ordain_v his_o angel_n to_o serve_v for_o our_o welfare_n so_o much_o the_o more_o be_v we_o bind_v to_o his_o mercy_n moreover_o he_o have_v do_v we_o so_o great_a honour_n that_o his_o son_n to_o redeem_v we_o have_v not_o take_v upon_o he_o the_o nature_n of_o the_o angel_n but_o as_o the_o apostle_n say_v have_v clothe_v himself_o with_o our_o nature_n and_o our_o substance_n when_o

in_o what_o wise_a even_o as_o his_o child_n when_o a_o child_n obey_v his_o father_n he_o do_v it_o not_o against_o his_o will_n but_o he_o do_v it_o because_o he_o be_v incline_v the_o reunto_o

do_v the_o angel_n on_o the_o otherside_n satan_n be_v a_o adversary_n for_o albeit_o that_o he_o appear_v before_o god_n &_o be_v fain_o to_o render_v his_o account_n yet_o be_v it_o not_o for_o that_o he_o yield_v of_o his_o own_o accord_n nor_o for_o that_o he_o be_v willing_a to_o be_v subject_a unto_o god_n but_o rather_o he_o rouse_v himself_o against_o he_o and_o be_v inflame_v with_o so_o excessive_a rage_n that_o he_o will_v have_v overthrow_v god_n power_n if_o it_o have_v be_v possible_a for_o he_o so_o then_o he_o hold_v still_o his_o natural_a corruption_n that_o be_v to_o

be_v we_o must_v always_o hold_v this_o for_o a_o certainty_n that_o the_o naughtiness_n which_o be_v in_o the_o devil_n proceed_v of_o themselves_o &_o that_o when_o they_o become_v to_o be_v

altogether_o evil_a likewise_o whereas_o sin_n be_v in_o man_n nature_n it_o be_v not_o of_o god_n put_v in_o by_o creation_n but_o by_o reason_n that_o satan_n do_v spread_v his_o naughtiness_n further_o abroad_o at_o such_o time_n as_o man_n be_v beguile_v by_o his_o wiliness_n to_o disappoint_v the_o benefit_n of_o god_n thus_o you_o see_v how_o the_o devil_n become_v accurse_v of_o

scripture_n teach_v we_o yet_o for_o all_o that_o they_o cease_v not_o to_o be_v always_o under_o the_o hand_n of_o god_n and_o therefore_o
will_v cut_v asunder_o the_o cord_n of_o they_o that_o torment_v we_o so_o and_o that_o they_o shall_v have_v no_o more_o ability_n to_o annoy_v we_o hereafter_o mark_v this_o for_o a_o special_a

when_o the_o world_n judge_v the_o same_o of_o we_o and_o when_o our_o own_o flesh_n and_o our_o own_o nature_n provoke_v we_o to_o such_o temptation_n let_v we_o assure_v ourselves_o that_o god_n

which_o make_v we_o too_o kick_v against_o our_o master_n like_o horse_n that_o be_v overpampered_a god_n then_o foresee_v all_o this_o also_o let_v we_o hold_v it_o for_o certain_a and_o sure_a that_o we_o be_v bliss_v when_o the_o world_n see_v nothing_o but_o curssednesse_n in_o we_o and_o that_o even_o when_o according_a too_o the_o flesh_n we_o can_v perceive_v nothing_o but_o

we_o we_o can_v judge_v who_o be_v fool_n except_o we_o have_v god_n spirit_n to_o guide_v we_o with_o such_o discretion_n as_o we_o may_v not_o judge_v at_o all_o adventure_n i_o have_v tell_v you_o

the_o reason_n why_o there_o be_v nothing_o but_o folly_n in_o they_o will_v you_o judge_v of_o such_o man_n first_o of_o all_o let_v we_o have_v a_o eye_n unto_o god_n and_o second_o let_v every_o of_o we_o enter_v in_o too_o himself_o and_o examine_v himself_o well_o for_o that_o be_v the_o true_a wisdom_n and_o therein_o it_o consist_v i_o say_v we_o must_v first_o and_o foremost_a have_v a_o

trust_n in_o his_o grace_n to_o call_v upon_o he_o and_o to_o flee_v too_o he_o for_o refuge_n thus_o we_o see_v at_o what_o point_n we_o must_v begin_v if_o we_o mind_n to_o have_v a_o true_a rule_n of_o wisdom_n and_o afterward_o let_v we_o enter_v into_o our_o own_o self_n too_o understand_v our_o own_o vice_n and_o want_n that_o we_o may_v mislike_v our_o self_n for_o they_o and_o sigh_v when_o we_o see_v that_o we_o keep_v not_o our_o way_n forth_o on_o to_o godward_o as_o we_o ought_v to_o do_v when_o we_o have_v do_v so_o we_o may_v have_v a_o good_a discretion_n to_o judge_v of_o fool_n for_o although_o the_o world_n clap_v their_o hand_n at_o the_o wicked_a yet_o let_v not_o we_o cease_v too_o set_v light_n by_o they_o yea_o and_o to_o hate_v they_o and_o to_o abhor_v they_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 and_o honour_v among_o we_o for_o as_o for_o all_o these_o despiser_n of_o god_n which_o delight_n in_o naughtiness_n we_o must_v esteem_v they_o but_o as_o dirt_n and_o mire_n we_o must_v account_v their_o do_n but_o as_o filth_n so_o as_o we_o can_v abide_v the_o stench_n of_o it_o for_o they_o live_v not_o but_o to_o the_o dishonour_n of_o god_n and_o when_o man_n make_v reverence_n to_o

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

well_o therefore_o let_v we_o not_o be_v so_o swift_a and_o hasty_a too_o judge_v according_a to_o the_o success_n of_o thing_n but_o let_v we_o consider_v that_o be_v the_o world_n never_o so_o

that_o must_v suffice_v we_o moreover_o let_v we_o learn_v to_o say_v it_o as_o it_o be_v contain_v here_o for_o eliphas_n mean_v not_o that_o he_o hard_o other_o man_n report_v behold_v such_o a_o

yet_o notwithstanding_o he_o be_v full_o persuade_v that_o none_o be_v bliss_v but_o the_o child_n of_o god_n and_o such_o as_o honour_v he_o and_o lean_v altogether_o too_o his_o goodness_n yea_o

but_o it_o be_v not_o for_o nought_o that_o our_o lord_n promise_v his_o faithful_a one_o the_o spirit_n of_o discretion_n it_o be_v to_o the_o intent_n they_o shall_v not_o be_v lead_v here_o and_o

and_o have_v not_o any_o more_o reason_n in_o they_o for_o sometime_o man_n shall_v sin_v through_o simplicity_n and_o yet_o stand_v in_o some_o fear_n of_o god_n howbeit_o they_o shall_v be_v dull_v

there_o shall_v some_o fear_n of_o god_n lie_v hide_v in_o they_o which_o be_v as_o good_a as_o choke_v well_o then_o such_o manner_n of_o folk_n have_v more_o simplicity_n than_o craftiness_n and_o

take_v unmeasurable_a liberty_n to_o follow_v all_o evil_n of_o set_a purpose_n you_o see_v then_o that_o the_o crafty_a or_o subtle_a folk_n of_o who_o eliphas_n make_v mention_n in_o this_o strain_v be_v not_o such_o as_o do_v amiss_o through_o ignorance_n and_o oversight_n but_o such_o as_o wilful_o and_o of_o set_a purpose_n make_v none_o account_v of_o god_n nor_o of_o the_o handle_n of_o

god_n let_v man_n run_v so_o far_o upon_o the_o bridle_n as_o to_o show_v themselves_o suttlewitted_a against_o he_o then_o have_v satan_n take_v such_o possession_n of_o they_o as_o it_o be_v right_a hard_a to_o bring_v they_o back_o again_o to_o the_o right_a way_n yea_o and_o in_o a_o manner_n impossible_a and_o we_o see_v also_o in_o what_o wise_a the_o prophet_n isaiah_n thunder_v against_o such_o kind_n of_o folk_n say_v curse_v be_v you_o that_o make_v you_o lurkinghole_n for_o he_o use_v that_o similitude_n inspeak_v of_o these_o suttleheaded_a folk_n which_o bear_v themselves_o in_o

fear_n of_o god_n for_o mark_v whereat_o they_o begin_v if_o we_o be_v so_o bridle_v say_v they_o that_o if_o there_o be_v but_o one_o word_n of_o scripture_n for_o a_o thing_n we_o must_v yield_v

what_o a_o thing_n be_v it_o for_o we_o to_o be_v compel_v to_o yield_v such_o authority_n too_o god_n word_n as_o it_o may_v not_o be_v lawful_a for_o we_o to_o ask_v how_o the_o case_n stand_v these_o politic_a head_n therefore_o which_o be_v so_o desirous_a to_o work_v wile_n with_o god_n begin_v at_o this_o point_n namely_o of_o take_v leave_n to_o keep_v man_n from_o see_v what_o the_o thing_n be_v that_o man_n call_v god_n word_n to_o the_o end_n that_o all_o mouth_n shall_v be_v tungty_v &_o that_o man_n may_v raze_v it_o out_o quite_o and_o clean_o and_o when_o they_o be_v once_o enter_v into_o that_o doubt_n afterward_o they_o harden_v themselves_o in_o it_o and_o good_a reason_n it_o be_v that_o god_n shall_v leave_v they_o there_o and_o that_o satan_n shall_v carry_v they_o headlong_o and_o when_o they_o be_v come_v to_o that_o point_n they_o do_v nothing_o else_o but_o blear_a out_o their_o tongue_n against_o all_o doctrine_n there_o be_v no_o more_o grief_n nor_o remorse_n of_o conscience_n in_o they_o but_o to_o be_v short_a they_o be_v bereave_v of_o all_o humanity_n and_o become_v brutish_a thus_o you_o see_v why_o i_o say_v that_o it_o be_v impossible_a that_o those_o who_o god_n have_v leave_v at_o that_o point_n shall_v ever_o return_v to_o the_o way_n of_o salvation_n and_o therefore_o let_v we_o beware_v that_o we_o hold_v ourselves_o strait_o in_o subjection_n unto_o god_n to_o bear_v such_o reverence_n to_o his_o word_n as_o we_o may_v shun_v and_o utter_o abhor_v and_o detest_v the_o slight_n and_o subtlety_n wherein_o the_o wicked_a

not_o lewd_o but_o desire_v to_o be_v feed_v with_o the_o food_n of_o simplicity_n and_o uprightness_n as_o with_o milk_n for_o like_a as_o god_n handle_v his_o child_n after_o that_o manner_n in_o

of_o judge_v very_o he_o have_v some_o colour_n in_o his_o say_n as_o we_o have_v see_v afore_o for_o when_o god_n be_v so_o gracious_a unto_o a_o man_n as_o to_o let_v he_o live_v long_a time_n here_o he_o may_v well_o have_v learn_v many_o a_o thing_n and_o again_o we_o know_v that_o man_n wit_n be_v the_o better_o settle_v by_o age_n and_o that_o young_a man_n cast_v forth_o many_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

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

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

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

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

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

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 their_o father_n true_a it_o be_v that_o this_o can_v not_o enter_v into_o all_o man_n head_n neither_o be_v it_o a_o common_a doctrine_n and_o this_o be_v the_o cause_n wherefore_o i_o say_v that_o

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

word_n we_o have_v to_o pray_v he_o to_o open_v our_o ear_n and_o to_o correct_v the_o dullness_n of_o hear_v that_o be_v in_o we_o and_o our_o slowness_n of_o obey_v he_o and_o special_o to_o give_v

a_o great_a noise_n in_o we_o that_o break_v off_o god_n word_n so_o as_o it_o be_v not_o receive_v again_o we_o bear_v not_o away_o the_o hundred_o part_n of_o that_o which_o be_v tell_v we_o and_o

you_o see_v what_o we_o have_v to_o mark_v nevertheless_o we_o must_v also_o have_v the_o say_a soberness_n and_o modesty_n of_o not_o be_v too_o hasty_a too_o speak_v but_o rather_o yield_v

they_o do_v not_o easy_o receive_v the_o yoke_n because_o they_o be_v full_a of_o presumption_n as_o i_o say_v afore_o then_o if_o god_n tame_v they_o and_o make_v they_o teachable_a it_o be_v his_o

wit_n can_v never_o reach_v so_o high_a as_o to_o know_v god_n or_o his_o truth_n we_o ought_v to_o put_v our_o own_o reason_n from_o we_o and_o to_o renounce_v it_o utter_o and_o that_o be_v the_o thing_n which_o saint_n paul_n term_v too_o be_v make_v a_o fool_n then_o if_o we_o will_v have_v our_o lord_n to_o fill_v we_o with_o his_o wisdom_n it_o behove_v we_o to_o become_v fool_n that_o be_v to_o say_v we_o must_v not_o bring_v any_o thing_n of_o our_o own_o nor_o ween_v ourselves_o to_o have_v one_o thing_n or_o other_o for_o that_o be_v a_o shet_n of_o the_o door_n against_o god_n wherefore_o if_o we_o will_v have_v god_n to_o continue_v the_o grace_n of_o his_o holy_a spirit_n when_o he_o shall_v have_v give_v we_o any_o portion_n of_o it_o we_o must_v learn_v to_o exalt_v and_o magnify_v he_o as_o he_o deserve_v and_o to_o acknowledge_v that_o there_o be_v not_o one_o drop_n of_o good_a understanding_n in_o we_o till_o god_n have_v put_v it_o into_o we_o and_o again_o the_o same_o must_v cause_v we_o to_o persist_v always_o in_o his_o obedience_n and_o to_o walk_v in_o great_a fear_n and_o carefulness_n see_v that_o if_o god_n shall_v quench_v the_o light_n that_o he_o have_v put_v into_o we_o we_o shall_v be_v in_o darkness_n yea_o and_o in_o so_o horrible_a darkness_n as_o we_o can_v never_o get_v out_o of_o it_o this_o be_v the_o first_o use_n of_o this_o place_n the_o second_o be_v that_o although_o we_o see_v the_o great_a part_n of_o the_o world_n go_v astray_v and_o scarce_o any_o man_n willing_a too_o submit_v himself_o unto_o god_n we_o must_v not_o think_v it_o strange_a that_o man_n shall_v be_v so_o far_o out_o of_o order_n as_o too_o play_v the_o wild_a beast_n and_o why_o for_o it_o be_v the_o spirit_n of_o god_n that_o give_v understanding_n wherefore_o let_v the_o same_o be_v a_o ground_n for_o we_o to_o magnify_v god_n grace_n the_o more_o which_o we_o shall_v have_v receive_v and_o therewithal_o let_v we_o not_o be_v carry_v away_o though_o we_o see_v such_o rebelliousness_n and_o why_o for_o man_n do_v but_o follow_v their_o own_o kind_n they_o follow_v their_o own_o head_n and_o in_o the_o mean_a while_n resist_v god_n and_o that_o be_v because_o the_o doctrine_n of_o the_o gospel_n surmount_v all_o man_n reason_n and_o god_n must_v be_v fain_o too_o work_v by_o his_o holy_a spirit_n in_o open_v

age_a man_n have_v no_o understanding_n skill_n nor_o discretion_n more_o than_o other_o man_n true_o eliu_n mean_v not_o here_o to_o pervert_v the_o order_n of_o nature_n for_o he_o have_v protest_v heretofore_o that_o he_o will_v hearken_v to_o the_o age_a and_o be_v willing_a to_o submit_v himself_o too_o their_o doctrine_n but_o he_o mean_v that_o which_o i_o have_v touch_v already_o namely_o that_o god_n be_v not_o bind_v too_o age_n nor_o to_o the_o state_n and_o quality_n of_o man_n when_o it_o please_v god_n too_o advance_v a_o man_n too_o dignity_n if_o he_o will_v have_v he_o to_o

a_o man_n be_v in_o degree_n the_o more_o shall_v he_o be_v know_v to_o be_v a_o double_a beast_n as_o for_o example_n
if_o there_o be_v a_o man_n choose_v to_o preach_v god_n word_n and_o god_n be_v mind_v to_o show_v favour_n to_o his_o church_n he_o will_v endue_v the_o say_a man_n with_o his_o spirit_n he_o will_v

when_o god_n intend_v to_o be_v serve_v by_o they_o he_o give_v they_o a_o mighty_a power_n too_o discharge_v their_o duty_n contrariwise_o if_o god_n be_v â—â—gâ—ie_n with_o we_o then_o they_o

in_o the_o shadow_n of_o their_o riches_n and_o credit_n let_v we_o assure_v ourselves_o that_o god_n will_v judge_v they_o without_o regard_n what_o they_o be_v now_o yea_o and_o that_o their_o

have_v need_n of_o furtherance_n yea_o and_o though_o we_o have_v all_o the_o furtherance_n that_o can_v be_v wish_v yet_o be_v it_o apparent_a that_o there_o be_v still_o default_n in_o we_o for_o

the_o use_n and_o profit_n that_o it_o bring_v we_o rain_n in_o some_o respect_n may_v be_v hurtful_a as_o unto_o they_o that_o be_v wet_a too_o the_o hard_a skin_n when_o they_o go_v abroad_o in_o

that_o we_o must_v not_o at_o all_o adventure_n receive_v all_o doctrine_n that_o be_v set_v afore_o we_o until_o we_o be_v sure_a that_o they_o be_v of_o god_n but_o when_o we_o know_v that_o it_o

sermon_n be_v but_o for_o fashion_n sake_n and_o they_o return_v home_o from_o they_o as_o wise_a as_o they_o go_v thither_o so_o then_o there_o be_v very_o few_o folk_n in_o who_o the_o reverence_n be_v to_o be_v find_v that_o be_v speak_v of_o here_o and_o as_o for_o conform_v themselves_o full_o unto_o it_o that_o be_v a_o very_a rare_a virtue_n for_o every_o man_n will_v be_v wise_a and_o cunning_a and_o after_o that_o sort_n in_o not_o obey_v god_n and_o in_o not_o come_v to_o the_o knowledge_n of_o the_o holy_a scripture_n nay_o marry_o say_v they_o i_o think_v thus_o and_o thus_o it_o seem_v to_o i_o and_o man_n be_v not_o ashamed_a to_o allege_v their_o weening_n before_o god_n and_o it_o be_v the_o chief_a article_n of_o the_o faith_n of_o the_o papist_n at_o this_o day_n that_o in_o their_o opinion_n god_n ought_v too_o set_v great_a store_n by_o they_o for_o this_o their_o overdivelish_a pride_n in_o that_o they_o will_v have_v all_o man_n to_o hold_v themselves_o too_o all_o their_o device_n and_o they_o that_o blaspheme_v not_o so_o open_o with_o their_o mouth_n be_v nevertheless_o see_v by_o their_o deed_n that_o they_o rebel_v against_o god_n for_o we_o see_v how_o god_n do_v nowadays_o set_v out_o the_o whole_a perfection_n of_o wisdom_n in_o the_o gospel_n and_o come_v so_o familiar_o unto_o we_o desire_v to_o fill_v we_o to_o the_o full_a and_o yet_o notwithstanding_o we_o find_v no_o taste_n in_o his_o word_n but_o utter_o despise_v it_o and_o when_o it_o be_v declare_v unto_o we_o we_o go_v about_o to_o resist_v it_o or_o at_o leastwise_o too_o deface_v it_o by_o our_o do_n see_v then_o that_o we_o be_v so_o malicious_a shall_v not_o they_o that_o hear_v job_n bear_v witness_n against_o we_o shall_v they_o not_o upbraid_v we_o with_o the_o obedience_n which_o they_o yield_v unto_o job_n who_o in_o deed_n be_v a_o prophet_n of_o god_n but_o yet_o have_v no_o such_o record_n of_o his_o call_n as_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n have_v give_v to_o those_o that_o preach_v his_o gospel_n in_o these_o day_n and_o therefore_o let_v we_o mark_v well_o this_o text_n for_o like_a as_o it_o be_v say_v that_o the_o least_o in_o the_o kingdom_n of_o heaven_n that_o be_v to_o say_v of_o they_o that_o preach_v the_o gospel_n in_o these_o day_n be_v more_o excellent_a in_o his_o ministry_n than_o john_n baptist_n and_o all_o the_o prophet_n so_o on_o the_o contrary_a part_n when_o we_o despise_v the_o doctrine_n that_o god_n send_v see_v that_o he_o command_v it_o to_o be_v so_o honour_v it_o be_v certain_a that_o we_o shall_v be_v double_a guilty_a thus_o you_o see_v what_o we_o have_v to_o mark_v in_o this_o text_n and_o it_o be_v say_v immediate_o that_o if_o job_n jest_v with_o they_o they_o believe_v it_o not_o whereby_o he_o mean_v that_o he_o have_v such_o a_o gravity_n in_o he_o as_o man_n dare_v not_o believe_v that_o he_o will_v jest_v because_o that_o in_o all_o his_o conversation_n he_o show_v himself_o as_o a_o prophet_n of_o god_n and_o have_v get_v so_o great_a credit_n as_o the_o very_a reverence_n which_o man_n bear_v unto_o he_o be_v a_o cause_n that_o man_n think_v not_o that_o he_o will_v abase_v himself_o to_o become_v fellow_n like_o and_o companion_n
