etc_n etc_n and_o for_o the_o other_o he_o say_v try_v i_o oh_o god_n and_o seek_v the_o ground_n of_o my_o heart_n etc_n etc_n in_o the_o scripture_n they_o be_v say_v to_o hate_v the_o lord_n that_o geve_v any_o part_n of_o his_o honour_n to_o any_o creature_n as_o in_o that_o commandment_n wherein_o the_o lord_n forbid_v idolatry_n he_o say_v thus_o 20._o i_o will_v visit_v the_o sin_n of_o the_o father_n upon_o the_o child_n to_o the_o three_o and_o four_o generation_n in_o they_o that_o hate_v i_o etc_n etc_n where_o they_o that_o break_v that_o commandment_n either_o in_o make_v or_o

the_o prophet_n david_n also_o call_v such_o sinner_n when_o in_o the_o fifty_o psalm_n he_o say_v thus_o 50._o the_o lord_n say_v unto_o the_o sinner_n why_o take_v thou_o my_o testament_n in_o thy_o

cast_v in_o thy_o lot_n etc_n etc_n these_o be_v they_o that_o hate_v the_o lord_n because_o they_o have_v even_o sell_v themselves_o to_o serve_v sin_n and_o must_v therefore_o needs_o hate_v he_o against_o who_o they_o commit_v sin_n the_o example_n of_o the_o prophet_n david_n therefore_o do_v teach_v he_o that_o shall_v be_v choose_v to_o bear_v rule_n to_o hate_v all_o such_o manner_n of_o

hate_v they_o therefore_o not_o with_o such_o hatred_n as_o i_o have_v speak_v of_o that_o be_v to_o refuse_v they_o in_o election_n but_o with_o perfect_a hatred_n even_o as_o though_o they_o be_v

religion_n 5._o we_o be_v teach_v to_o love_v our_o enemy_n in_o that_o they_o be_v the_o enemy_n of_o god_n therefore_o we_o must_v hate_v they_o so_o far_o forth_o as_o they_o be_v so_o but_o their_o person_n we_o must_v not_o hate_v he_o therefore_o that_o shall_v bear_v rule_n must_v so_o hate_v they_o that_o hate_v the_o lord_n in_o such_o sort_n as_o i_o have_v say_v that_o he_o use_v
