that_o be_v most_o bind_v to_o celebrate_v god_n praise_n and_o vow_v this_o deliverance_n to_o everlasting_a memory_n by_o our_o private_a meditation_n we_o may_v use_v this_o for_o a_o song_n of_o thanksgiving_n after_o our_o deliverance_n from_o temporal_a sickness_n which_o be_v one_o and_o the_o first_o sense_n wherein_o hezekiah_n use_v it_o but_o in_o the_o second_o and_o most_o principal_a sense_n he_o sing_v it_o in_o the_o person_n of_o the_o mystical_a body_n who_o be_v by_o christ_n cure_v of_o the_o deadly_a sickness_n of_o sin_n and_o death_n for_o hezekiah_n which_o signify_v help_v or_o strengthen_v of_o the_o lord_n be_v a_o type_n of_o the_o church_n heal_v by_o god_n and_o isaiah_n who_o bring_v the_o medicine_n that_o cure_v the_o disease_n and_o be_v interpret_v the_o salvation_n of_o the_o lord_n figure_v our_o redeemer_n jesus_n christ_n and_o indeed_o it_o be_v not_o likely_a that_o so_o good_a a_o prince_n as_o hezekiah_n will_v have_v be_v so_o extreme_o deject_a if_o he_o have_v apprehend_v nothing_o more_o fearful_a than_o his_o present_a sickness_n with_o the_o natural_a separation_n of_o the_o soul_n and_o body_n or_o that_o it_o be_v his_o never_o see_v again_o of_o god_n temporal_a house_n that_o make_v he_o so_o passionate_a for_o if_o that_o have_v be_v a_o matter_n worthy_a such_o grief_n it_o shall_v have_v be_v always_o so_o and_o then_o neither_o he_o nor_o any_o man_n can_v have_v depart_v this_o life_n willing_o but_o there_o be_v a_o great_a mystery_n in_o it_o yea_o if_o you_o well_o consider_v that_o this_o deliverance_n herein_o memorize_v be_v confirm_v by_o one_o of_o the_o great_a miracle_n to_o wit_n the_o sun_n go_v back_o ten_o degree_n i_o think_v you_o will_v then_o believe_v that_o it_o have_v respect_n to_o some_o great_a thing_n than_o the_o particular_a recovery_n of_o hezekiah_n for_o that_o the_o sun_n go_v real_o back_o and_o do_v not_o appear_v only_o so_o to_o do_v be_v manifest_v in_o these_o place_n 2_o king_n 20.12_o 2_o chron._n 32.31_o be_v 39.1_o for_o thence_o i_o gather_v that_o it_o be_v observe_v in_o asiria_n and_o that_o messenger_n be_v send_v from_o thence_o to_o

than_o that_o which_o it_o be_v send_v to_o signify_v whereas_o if_o we_o will_v understand_v hezekiah_n to_o be_v a_o type_n of_o the_o church_n and_o that_o god_n give_v this_o for_o a_o token_n to_o assure_v he_o that_o as_o he_o shall_v be_v heal_v so_o he_o will_v also_o send_v his_o son_n to_o heal_v the_o general_a infirmity_n of_o mankind_n we_o shall_v then_o make_v the_o thing_n figure_v proportionable_a to_o the_o figure_n for_o the_o redemption_n of_o man_n be_v a_o work_n much_o great_a than_o the_o sun_n retrogradation_n it_o be_v well_o worthy_a of_o so_o admirable_a a_o type_n but_o i_o shall_v make_v this_o prologue_n over-large_a or_o else_o i_o will_v so_o plain_o declare_v unto_o you_o how_o hezekiah_n be_v a_o type_n of_o the_o church_n how_o in_o every_o circumstance_n of_o his_o sickness_n he_o pattern_v out_o the_o infirmity_n of_o mankind_n labour_v under_o sin_n and_o how_o natural_o that_o miracle_n of_o the_o sun_n retrogradation_n represent_v the_o send_n of_o christ_n to_o be_v our_o deliverer_n that_o you_o shall_v confess_v this_o song_n be_v make_v for_o we_o and_o the_o church_n to_o sing_v throughout_o all_o age_n for_o a_o

herein_o the_o prophet_n very_o earnest_o beseech_v god_n to_o be_v merciful_a unto_o his_o people_n the_o principal_a point_n considerable_a be_v these_o first_o he_o confess_v god_n to_o be_v

deserve_v confusion_n second_o he_o aggravate_v their_o offence_n by_o diverse_a circumstance_n acknowledge_v that_o as_o it_o be_v the_o same_o they_o have_v deserve_v so_o it_o be_v the_o destruction_n they_o be_v forewarn_v of_o that_o be_v come_v upon_o they_o three_o have_v acknowledge_v thus_o much_o he_o humble_o entreat_v that_o god_n will_v be_v nevertheless_o merciful_a unto_o they_o first_o in_o regard_n he_o have_v heretofore_o get_v glory_n by_o deliver_v they_o second_o for_o that_o they_o be_v his_o own_o elect_a people_n three_o see_v they_o be_v already_o become_v a_o reproach_n unto_o their_o neighbour_n last_o even_o for_o his_o own_o and_o the_o messiah_n sake_n and_o all_o this_o he_o earnest_o entreat_v not_o for_o their_o own_o worthiness_n but_o for_o the_o tender_a mercy_n sake_n of_o god_n this_o song_n may_v be_v proper_o sing_v whensoever_o any_o of_o those_o particular_a judgement_n be_v pour_v out_o which_o the_o prophet_n have_v foretell_v shall_v be_v inflict_v on_o these_o latter_a time_n and_o it_o may_v be_v say_v or_o sing_v by_o the_o church_n or_o any_o member_n thereof_o in_o her_o person_n during_o any_o other_o affliction_n

full_a of_o fear_n who_o always_o be_v from_o bre●ch_n of_o promise_n free_a and_o never_o fail_v to_o have_v mercy_n where_o they_o do_v observe_v thy_o law_n and_o honour_n thou_o we_o have_v
