time_n be_v often_o overtake_v with_o punishment_n nor_o do_v i_o yet_o deny_v but_o god_n do_v his_o displeasure_n signify_v by_o previous_a sign_n to_o such_o ere_o he_o do_v fall_v upon_o they_o

your_o discourse_n judicious_o hit_v upon_o the_o point_n as_o truth_n you_o shall_v a'done_v and_o you_o shall_v hear_v how_o i_o shall_v do_v anon_o then_o do_v not_o think_v that_o you_o have_v overcome_v man_n job_n with_o your_o reason_n and_o have_v make_v he_o dumb_a by_o force_n of_o argument_n for_o what_o you_o say_v that_o god_n be_v just_a and_o only_o punish_v such_o as_o deserve_v which_o you_o do_v all_o maintain_v to_o be_v a_o maxim_n and_o once_o and_o again_o will_v urge_v it_o strong_o truth_n i_o take_v to_o be_v a_o point_n debatable_a because_o i_o see_v no_o inconsistence_n betwixt_o the_o equity_n of_o god_n th'afflict_a and_o th'integrity_n of_o he_o who_o be_v afflict_v for_o i_o know_v god_n keep_v a_o many_o worthy_a person_n low_a for_o their_o

but_o i_o shall_v state_n the_o matter_n otherwise_o and_o plain_o show_v that_o though_o this_o man_n be_v innocent_a yet_o so_o to_o bluster_v in_o his_o trial_n and_o complain_v of_o his_o hard_a usage_n as_o if_o he_o will_v arraign_v the_o god_n of_o justice_n for_o iniquity_n be_v such_o a_o fault_n as_o none_o can_v justify_v now_o then_o my_o friend_n as_o i_o be_o not_o engage_v speech_n in_o quarrel_n with_o this_o man_n nor_o have_v i_o stage_v myself_o his_o opposite_a and_o with_o such_o heat_n as_o you_o have_v do_v manage_v a_o long_a debate_n with_o one_o in_o his_o sad_a

because_o i_o now_o perceive_v speak_v you_o be_v silent_a i_o have_v reason_n to_o believe_v the_o heat_n of_o your_o sharp_a argue_v now_o be_v spend_v and_o you_o will_v no_o more_o pursue_v your_o
