be_v yet_o we_o do_v but_o languish_v here_o but_o there_o be_v but_o few_o that_o know_v this_o so_o much_o y_o it_o more_o they_o ought_v we_o to_o note_v well_o this_o doctrine_n which_o i_o have_v here_o before_o touch_v that_o be_v to_o wit_n that_o both_o in_o death_n and_o in_o all_o other_o affliction_n we_o be_v more_o accumber_v and_o trouble_v with_o the_o wrath_n of_o god_n than_o with_o the_o evyll_n that_o we_o can_v feel_v if_o one_o be_v afflict_v with_o poverty_n so_o that_o he_o have_v hunger_n and_o thirst_n a_o other_o be_v strike_v with_o sickness_n and_o suffer_v great_a tourmente_n another_o be_v persecute_v of_o man_n so_o as_o he_o have_v no_o time_n of_o rest_n and_o more_o if_o in_o the_o end_n death_n come_v before_o our_o eye_n we_o ought_v to_o know_v that_o there_o be_v nothing_o so_o much_o to_o be_v fear_v as_o the_o wrath_n and_o vengeance_n of_o god_n but_o man_n do_v clean_a contrary_n and_o this_o mark_n why_o i_o have_v say_v that_o we_o must_v note_v this_o doctrine_n the_o better_a because_o a_o man_n may_v see_v that_o the_o poor_a sick_a person_n and_o they_o that_o be_v afflict_v in_o what_o sort_n soever_o it_o be_v will_v cry_v alas_o one_o will_v cry_v the_o arm_n another_o will_v cry_v the_o leg_n the_o one_o here_o the_o other_o there_o but_o yet_o they_o come_v never_o to_o the_o ground_n of_o the_o evil_n and_o that_o procee_v of_o the_o leprosy_n that_o be_v in_o us._n for_o we_o be_v so_o dull_a witted_a that_o we_o can_v not_o attain_v to_o know_v the_o judgement_n of_o god_n so_o much_o the_o more_o ought_v we_o to_o learn_v when_o we_o be_v beat_v with_o such_o rod_n as_o i_o have_v say_v to_o make_v we_o look_v upon_o the_o cause_n whence_o this_o evil_a procee_v which_o be_v that_o god_n will_v have_v we_o to_o feel_v our_o sin_n and_o that_o he_o sommon_v we_o to_o the_o end_n that_o we_o shall_v there_o come_v as_o it_o be_v before_o our_o judge_n and_o that_o we_o shall_v not_o come_v there_o with_o sleyghte_n and_o mean_n of_o excuse_n but_o with_o frank_a and_o free_a confession_n and_o that_o the_o same_o be_v not_o only_o make_v with_o mouth_n or_o assent_v by_o writing_n but_o that_o we_o be_v wound_v even_o to_o the_o bottom_n of_o the_o herte_n feel_v what_o it_o be_v to_o have_v do_v against_o the_o will_n of_o our_o god_n to_o have_v stir_v he_o up_o against_o we_o &_o to_o have_v make_v war_n against_o his_o justice_n this_o be_v it_o that_o we_o have_v to_o hold_v in_o mind_n when_o we_o see_v that_o the_o king_n ezechias_n be_v in_o such_o extremity_n of_o anguish_n because_o god_n do_v punish_v he_o for_o his_o sin_n yea_o and_o this_o we_o ought_v to_o mark_v well_o that_o though_o before_o he_o have_v protest_v that_o he_o have_v walk_v in_o purity_n and_o uprightness_n of_o life_n and_o that_o he_o have_v study_v all_o his_o life_n long_o to_o obey_v and_o please_v god_n nevertheless_o he_o rest_v not_o his_o mind_n upon_o his_o virtue_n nor_o his_o own_o merit_n he_o enter_v not_o into_o plea_n with_o god_n for_o he_o see_v well_o that_o all_o that_o can_v nothing_o profit_v he_o nor_o bring_v he_o and_o relefe_v therefore_o he_o set_v not_o fourthe_o what_o his_o life_n have_v be_v but_o he_o knowlege_v that_o rightfullye_o he_o be_v afflict_v so_o then_o we_o learn_v when_o it_o shall_v please_v god_n to_o correct_v with_o his_o rod_n not_o to_o grudge_v at_o it_o as_o if_o he_o do_v we_o wrong_n as_o if_o he_o have_v no_o regard_n to_o our_o merit_n or_o as_o if_o he_o use_v great_a sharpness_n with_o we_o than_o we_o have_v deserve_v let_v all_o such_o blasphemy_n be_v beat_v down_o and_o let_v we_o confess_v that_o he_o have_v just_a cause_n to_o punish_v we_o yea_o not_o only_o to_o expulse_v we_o out_o of_o the_o world_n but_o also_o to_o throw_v we_o down_o into_o the_o gulf_n of_o hell_n see_v then_o how_o we_o deserve_v to_o be_v order_v if_o we_o look_v upon_o all_o our_o own_o life_n moreover_o let_v we_o not_o think_v it_o strange_a that_o god_n send_v we_o affliction_n which_o seem_v grevous_a and_o sharp_a unto_o we_o see_v we_o see_v that_o ezechias_n have_v walk_v before_o we_o to_o show_v we_o the_o way_n men_z when_o they_o have_v have_v any_o good_a affection_n and_o desire_v to_o serve_v god_n do_v much_o marvel_n if_o god_n punish_v they_o more_o than_o the_o wicked_a and_o they_o suppose_v that_o they_o have_v lose_v their_o labour_n this_o tentation_n be_v to_o common_a as_o we_o see_v that_o even_o david_n be_v also_o torment_v with_o it_o when_o he_o say_v what_o mean_v this_o for_o i_o see_v the_o despiser_n of_o god_n prosper_v and_o be_v in_o jollity_n 73._o and_o make_v their_o triumph_n and_o in_o the_o mean_a time_n i_o do_v nothing_o but_o sup_v up_o the_o drink_n of_o sorrow_n from_o the_o evening_n to_o the_o morrow_n i_o have_v no_o rest_n it_o seem_v then_o that_o it_o be_v time_n lose_v to_o serve_v god_n behold_v how_o at_o the_o extremity_n he_o be_v beat_v down_o if_o god_n by_o his_o wonderful_a virtue_n have_v not_o uphold_v he_o and_o because_o the_o like_a may_v come_v unto_o we_o let_v we_o make_v we_o a_o buckler_n of_o the_o example_n that_o be_v here_o set_v before_o we_o of_o the_o king_n ezechias_n for_o we_o have_v seen_v here_o before_o how_o he_o have_v frame_v all_o his_o life_n to_o the_o law_n of_o god_n he_o have_v a_o zele_n which_o be_v not_o to_o be_v find_v in_o many_o people_n to_o purge_v all_o his_o land_n of_o all_o superstition_n and_o ydolatry_n many_o alarume_n be_v stir_v up_o against_o he_o to_o make_v he_o somewhat_o to_o revolt_v but_o that_o nothing_o stay_v he_o but_o that_o he_o set_v up_o the_o true_a and_o pure_a religyon_n &_o in_o his_o private_a life_n he_o seek_v nothing_o but_o that_o god_n may_v be_v gloryfy_v in_o and_o through_o all_o and_o yet_o look_v how_o god_n come_v to_o assail_v he_o yea_o and_o that_o of_o a_o strange_a fashion_n for_o he_o be_v as_o a_o lion_n that_o break_v his_o bone_n so_o when_o we_o see_v that_o ezechias_n be_v thus_o handle_v ought_v not_o we_o to_o learn_v to_o bear_v patient_o the_o correction_n that_o god_n shall_v send_v us._n loe_o this_o be_v it_o that_o we_o have_v to_o conceive_v of_o this_o place_n now_o to_o the_o rest_n of_o the_o passion_n that_o ezechias_n endure_v and_o although_o he_o slip_v here_o of_o the_o henge_n yet_o still_o in_o the_o midst_n thereof_o he_o declare_v the_o love_n that_o he_o have_v to_o god_n and_o that_o he_o desire_v not_o this_o present_a life_n after_o the_o manner_n of_o they_o that_o be_v therein_o become_v brutish_a and_o which_o seek_v for_o nothing_o but_o to_o eat_v and_o drink_v and_o know_v not_o for_o what_o end_n they_o be_v create_v but_o only_o to_o pastime_n here_o for_o a_o while_n but_o ezechias_n show_v well_o that_o he_o be_v guide_v by_o a_o other_o spirit_n he_o sayethe_v i_o have_v say_v in_o the_o cut_n short_a of_o my_o day_n i_o shall_v go_v down_o to_o the_o gate_n of_o the_o grave_n i_o shall_v not_o see_v any_o more_o the_o lord_n even_o the_o lord_n he_o speak_v here_o of_o his_o life_n that_o it_o be_v cut_v of_o in_o the_o mid_n of_o his_o course_n but_o yet_o he_o show_v that_o he_o desire_v not_o here_o to_o live_v to_o be_v at_o his_o ease_n he_o be_v a_o king_n and_o may_v have_v fare_v well_o he_o moughte_v have_v have_v great_a

all_o these_o but_o he_o say_v that_o he_o shall_v no_o more_o see_v the_o lord_n and_o he_o be_v not_o content_v to_o have_v pronounce_v this_o word_n once_o but_o he_o repete_v it_o again_o to_o express_v a_o great_a vehemency_n the_o lord_n even_o the_o lord_n say_v he_o by_o this_o he_o show_v that_o he_o desire_v not_o so_o much_o his_o life_n as_o to_o exercise_v himself_o here_o beneath_o to_o know_v that_o god_n be_v his_o father_n and_o to_o confirm_v himself_o more_o and_o more_o in_o that_o faith_n let_v we_o then_o mark_v well_o whereunto_o our_o life_n be_v to_o be_v direct_v that_o be_v that_o we_o shall_v perceive_v that_o god_n already_o in_o part_n show_v himself_o a_o father_n towards_o us._n i_o grant_v it_o true_a as_o i_o have_v already_o say_v that_o we_o be_v absent_a from_o he_o for_o our_o salvation_n lie_v in_o faith_n and_o hope_n it_o be_v hide_v and_o we_o see_v it_o not_o with_o natural_a sense_n yet_o in_o the_o mean_a while_n god_n
fail_v not_o to_o send_v down_o certain_a beam_n hither_o by_o low_a to_o lighten_v we_o so_o as_o we_o be_v guide_v to_o the_o hope_n of_o the_o life_n everlasting_a and_o perceive_v that_o god_n be_v not_o so_o far_o estrange_v from_o we_o but_o that_o yet_o he_o stretch_v four_o his_o hand_n hither_o by_o low_a to_o have_v care_n of_o we_o and_o to_o show_v we_o by_o experience_n that_o he_o have_v we_o in_o his_o safekepe_n for_o when_o the_o sun_n rise_v in_o the_o morning_n see_v we_o not_o what_o a_o fatherly_a care_n god_n have_v for_o we_o after_o when_o it_o go_v down_o at_o evening_n see_v we_o not_o that_o god_n have_v a_o eye_n to_o our_o wekenes_n that_o we_o may_v have_v rest_n and_o be_v somewhat_o releve_v do_v not_o god_n then_o in_o so_o hide_a the_o sun_n in_o the_o night_n time_n show_v himself_o our_o father_n further_o when_o we_o see_v the_o earth_n bring_v forth_o her_o fruit_n for_o our_o nourishement_n when_o we_o see_v the_o reins_n and_o all_o the_o change_n and_o alteration_n that_o be_v in_o nature_n in_o all_o this_o perceive_v we_o not_o that_o god_n have_v his_o hand_n stretch_v out_o to_o draw_v we_o always_o unto_o he_o and_o how_o he_o already_o show_v himself_o a_o liberal_a father_n unto_o we_o and_o that_o we_o enjoy_v the_o temporal_a benefit_n which_o he_o do_v for_o we_o to_o the_o end_n that_o by_o this_o mean_a we_o may_v be_v draw_v up_o high_a that_o be_v to_o say_v to_o know_v that_o he_o have_v adopt_v and_o make_v we_o his_o child_n that_o we_o may_v come_v to_o the_o fullness_n of_o joy_n and_o of_o all_o

as_o many_o year_n month_n day_n hour_n and_o minute_n as_o we_o have_v live_v here_o by_o low_a all_o the_o same_o be_v put_v together_o in_o account_n for_o ever_o to_o encrese_v and_o inflame_v the_o vengeance_n of_o god_n upon_o us._n and_o therefore_o let_v we_o know_v that_o we_o ought_v here_o to_o study_v upon_o the_o work_n of_o god_n for_o even_o therefore_o also_o be_v we_o set_v in_o this_o world_n and_o therefore_o in_o the_o v._o chapter_n 5._o when_o the_o prophet_n mind_v to_o rebuke_v the_o jew_n of_o a_o certain_a vile_a brutishnes_n they_o have_v not_o say_v he_o behold_v the_o work_n of_o god_n he_o speak_v of_o their_o drunkenness_n of_o their_o gluttony_n and_o of_o their_o dissolute_a life_n but_o the_o lump_n that_o make_v up_o the_o heap_n of_o evell_a

for_o this_o that_o we_o do_v here_o already_o see_v our_o god_n not_o that_o we_o have_v a_o perfect_v sight_n but_o first_o he_o show_v himself_o unto_o we_o by_o his_o word_n which_o be_v the_o

not_o to_o much_o dulwitted_a and_o altogether_o unfornissh_v of_o understand_v and_o reason_n we_o must_v needs_o see_v he_o for_o all_o the_o world_n be_v as_o a_o lively_a image_n wherein_o god_n set_v four_o unto_o we_o his_o virtue_n and_o highness_n moreover_o this_o that_o we_o be_v govern_v under_o his_o hand_n be_v a_o more_o familiar_a witness_n of_o his_o justice_n of_o his_o grace_n and_o of_o his_o mercy_n let_v we_o then_o learn_v to_o live_v to_o this_o end_n to_o practice_v ourselves_o to_o worship_n god_n as_o he_o that_o have_v create_v and_o fashion_a us._n next_o that_o
