so_o esteem_v more_o of_o god_n than_o of_o man_n or_o rather_o not_o esteem_v man_n but_o in_o god_n &_o withal_o let_v we_o remember_v that_o those_o man_n have_v reason_n to_o fear_v man_n that_o

original_a spring_n first_o we_o be_v so_o brutish_a that_o as_o beast_n apprehend_v no_o more_o than_o be_v before_o their_o eye_n so_o we_o believe_v no_o more_o than_o we_o see_v we_o see_v that_o man_n have_v mean_n to_o help_v we_o but_o we_o see_v not_o god_n neither_o know_v his_o power_n and_o this_o be_v the_o cause_n that_o we_o trust_v more_o to_o man_n that_o promise_v our_o sustenance_n than_o to_o god_n who_o promise_v to_o provide_v for_o we_o 6.26_o mat._n 6.26_o &_o never_o to_o forsake_v we_o yea_o than_o to_o god_n who_o send_v we_o the_o school_n of_o soul_n herb_n &_o flower_n of_o they_o to_o learn_v that_o man_n be_v far_o more_o excellent_a and_o precious_a in_o the_o sight_n of_o god_n ought_v whole_o to_o rest_n upon_o he_o for_o his_o sustenance_n and_o life_n 9_o second_o we_o be_v so_o addict_v to_o the_o flesh_n that_o we_o account_v nothing_o to_o be_v a_o blessing_n but_o what_o delight_v the_o flesh_n and_o so_o when_o man_n do_v promise_v thing_n fit_a and_o commodious_a for_o the_o same_o we_o trust_v to_o they_o more_o than_o to_o god_n who_o promise_v many_o blessing_n assistance_n and_o relief_n do_v not_o always_o fulfil_v those_o promise_n after_o the_o lust_n of_o the_o flesh_n but_o to_o the_o good_a of_o the_o spirit_n and_o salvation_n of_o the_o soul_n thus_o albeit_o he_o perform_v to_o we_o more_o than_o it_o seem_v he_o have_v promise_v namely_o spiritual_a and_o eternal_a gift_n in_o stead_n of_o carnal_a and_o temporal_a yet_o can_v not_o our_o flesh_n comprehend_v that_o he_o have_v fulfil_v his_o promise_n thus_o when_o in_o sickness_n poverty_n or_o prison_n man_n promise_v recovery_n assistance_n or_o delivery_n we_o trust_v more_o in_o he_o then_o god_n who_o in_o his_o word_n make_v the_o like_a promise_n for_o flesh_n know_v no_o other_o relief_n succour_n or_o delivery_n then_o that_o which_o be_v bodily_a which_o god_n often_o time_n change_v into_o spiritual_a and_o everlasting_a more_o excellent_a in_o deed_n yet_o less_o know_v to_o man_n 10_o the_o three_o cause_n rest_v in_o the_o time_n of_o performance_n of_o promise_n god_n in_o his_o wisdom_n do_v sometime_o use_v long_a delay_n as_o flesh_n do_v imagine_v in_o the_o performance_n of_o his_o promise_n whereupon_o man_n natural_o hot_a &_o impatient_a behold_v that_o which_o he_o esteem_v near_a and_o more_o ready_a at_o hand_n trust_v more_o to_o man_n then_o to_o god_n 5.4_o rom._n 5.4_o hereto_o we_o may_v add_v that_o as_o s._n paul_n say_v experience_n engender_v hope_n and_o therefore_o as_o man_n find_v help_v and_o relief_n in_o man_n who_o be_v of_o ability_n do_v also_o love_v he_o and_o on_o the_o

weep_v and_o gnash_v of_o tooth_n may_v in_o heart_n be_v fervent_o inflame_v in_o his_o love_n and_o that_o the_o remembrance_n that_o he_o have_v pay_v so_o many_o deadly_a debt_n to_o discharge_v we_o may_v more_v and_o more_o enforce_v his_o love_n final_o let_v the_o representation_n of_o the_o death_n of_o our_o old_a man_n crucify_v with_o this_o saviour_n make_v we_o so_o to_o abhor_v
