we_o that_o even_o those_o which_o have_v use_v vision_n from_o heaven_n have_v have_v much_o a_o do_v to_o understand_v a_o little_a of_o such_o secrecy_n so_o then_o let_v we_o understand_v that_o it_o behove_v we_o to_o be_v diligent_a in_o this_o article_n for_o when_o we_o have_v employ_v all_o our_o wit_n about_o it_o yet_o shall_v we_o not_o comprehend_v the_o hundred_o part_n of_o that_o which_o be_v in_o it_o and_o for_o proof_n hereof_o be_v not_o god_n righteousness_n a_o infinite_a thing_n and_o be_v not_o our_o corruption_n as_o a_o sea_n or_o as_o a_o bottomless_a pit_n therefore_o we_o must_v not_o marvel_v at_o eliphas_n for_o tell_v we_o here_o that_o he_o have_v but_o a_o small_a taste_n of_o this_o article_n but_o let_v we_o now_o come_v too_o that_o which_o he_o add_v which_o be_v that_o a_o breath_n or_o wind_n go_v to_o and_o fro_o so_o as_o he_o to_o die_v quake_v and_o shudder_v and_o his_o hair_n stand_v up_o stiff_o throughout_o all_o his_o body_n and_o that_o there_o appear_v a_o image_n unto_o he_o which_o he_o know_v not_o and_o that_o at_o the_o end_n he_o hear_v a_o voice_n of_o silence_n all_o this_o be_v do_v to_o the_o end_n which_o i_o have_v touch_v that_o be_v to_o wit_n to_o make_v eliphas_n ready_a to_o receive_v that_o which_o god_n purpose_v to_o say_v to_o he_o and_o to_o prepare_v he_o in_o such_o wise_a as_o he_o may_v understand_v how_o it_o be_v god_n that_o speak_v to_o the_o end_n that_o his_o doctrine_n may_v be_v of_o authority_n and_o furthermore_o that_o eliphas_n may_v be_v humble_v so_o as_o he_o may_v no_o more_o be_v hoiss_v up_o with_o presumption_n according_a as_o man_n common_o challenge_v to_o themselves_o i_o wot_v not_o what_o it_o behove_v eliphas_n to_o be_v altogether_o abase_v to_o the_o end_n he_o may_v know_v his_o own_o want_n and_o give_v the_o glory_n unto_o god_n true_a it_o be_v that_o in_o these_o day_n we_o have_v no_o such_o vision_n as_o they_o have_v in_o time_n past_a but_o it_o behove_v we_o to_o know_v that_o whereas_o god_n give_v such_o sign_n to_o the_o ancient_a father_n they_o must_v serve_v for_o we_o also_o at_o this_o day_n and_o therefore_o when_o we_o read_v the_o holy_a scripture_n or_o come_v to_o a_o sermon_n we_o must_v be_v touch_v with_o the_o majesty_n of_o god_n to_o yield_v he_o reverence_n so_o as_o we_o defile_v not_o his_o holy_a truth_n by_o esteem_v it_o as_o if_o a_o man_n shall_v tell_v we_o some_o merry_a conceit_a tale_n but_o rather_o think_v thus_o see_v that_o our_o maker_n speak_v unto_o we_o it_o behove_v all_o knee_n to_o bow_v before_o he_o and_o all_o man_n ought_v to_o quake_v at_o that_o which_o he_o say_v lo_o what_o we_o have_v to_o mark_v in_o this_o sentence_n and_o moreover_o we_o know_v that_o god_n in_o publish_v his_o law_n show_v token_n to_o afray_v all_o such_o as_o he_o mean_v to_o teach_v at_o that_o time_n and_o thereupon_o the_o people_n say_v let_v we_o not_o come_v near_o the_o mountain_n for_o we_o shall_v all_o die_v if_o god_n speak_v unto_o we_o thus_o you_o see_v how_o it_o be_v god_n will_v to_o authorise_v his_o law_n in_o such_o wise_a as_o the_o people_n be_v utter_o dismay_v by_o reason_n of_o the_o great_a number_n of_o miracle_n that_o he_o show_v and_o be_v this_o do_v for_o their_o sake_n only_o which_o be_v of_o that_o time_n no_o but_o god_n mean_v to_o give_v we_o also_o knowledge_n of_o his_o power_n which_o be_v permanent_a unto_o the_o world_n end_n the_o gospel_n have_v have_v yet_o great_a proof_n of_o majesty_n so_o then_o there_o be_v nothing_o that_o either_o can_v or_o aught_o to_o hinder_v we_o from_o receive_v of_o the_o gospel_n except_o our_o own_o unthankfulness_n and_o ungraciousness_n put_v out_o our_o eye_n although_o we_o can_v not_o see_v all_o the_o wonder_n that_o god_n have_v show_v yet_o must_v we_o hold_v ourselves_o content_v in_o that_o god_n teach_v we_o by_o his_o word_n without_o any_o long_n for_o new_a vision_n as_o many_o wander_a spirit_n do_v which_o will_v that_o the_o angel_n shall_v come_v down_o from_o heaven_n and_o bring_v they_o some_o new_a revelation_n but_o herein_o they_o do_v god_n great_a wrong_n for_o that_o they_o content_v not_o themselves_o in_o that_o god_n have_v show_v himself_o so_o familiar_o unto_o we_o for_o see_v that_o we_o have_v the_o holy_a scripture_n it_o be_v certain_a that_o we_o can_v not_o want_v any_o thing_n and_o above_o all_o thing_n in_o this_o brightness_n of_o the_o gospel_n we_o have_v a_o perfection_n of_o wisdom_n as_o saint_n paul_n show_v since_o the_o case_n stand_v so_o they_o that_o be_v tickle_v with_o a_o fond_a desire_n to_o have_v some_o vision_n do_v well_o bewray_v that_o they_o never_o know_v what_o the_o holy_a scripture_n be_v then_o let_v we_o content_a we_o with_o that_o which_o it_o have_v please_v god_n to_o disclose_v unto_o we_o as_o well_o by_o his_o prophet_n as_o by_o his_o son_n our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n assure_v ourselves_o that_o there_o he_o make_v we_o a_o final_a conclusion_n without_o any_o further_o pass_v and_o hereby_o we_o see_v whereunto_o they_o be_v come_v that_o have_v such_o a_o desire_n to_o range_v abroad_o and_o to_o leap_v beyond_o their_o bound_n here_o we_o see_v from_o whence_o come_v the_o horrible_a confusion_n that_o be_v in_o the_o popedom_n here_o we_o see_v whereupon_o the_o pope_n ground_v all_o his_o doctrine_n for_o he_o say_v that_o the_o apostle_n have_v not_o declare_v all_o that_o be_v for_o the_o profit_n of_o the_o church_n and_o that_o the_o holy_a ghost_n be_v come_v to_o make_v man_n to_o frame_v new_a article_n and_o too_o make_v man_n too_o rest_n themselves_o upon_o holy_a counsel_n for_o as_o much_o then_o as_o the_o pope_n and_o all_o his_o hanger_n on_o have_v not_o hold_v themselves_o to_o the_o pureness_n of_o the_o holy_a scripture_n god_n have_v undoubted_o blind_v they_o in_o their_o own_o folly_n and_o we_o see_v some_o among_o they_o to_o be_v so_o dull_a and_o brutish_a and_o final_o which_o have_v be_v grow_v so_o far_o out_o of_o kind_n as_o to_o worship_v stone_n and_o stock_n of_o timber_n and_o that_o thing_n be_v so_o far_o out_o of_o square_a that_o even_o little_a babe_n may_v well_o be_v ashamed_a of_o they_o and_o this_o come_v of_o that_o devilish_a curiosity_n that_o they_o be_v not_o content_v to_o be_v teach_v simple_o by_o the_o holy_a scripture_n behold_v also_o whereupon_o the_o religion_n of_o the_o turk_n be_v found_v mahomet_n have_v report_v himself_o to_o be_v the_o party_n that_o shall_v bring_v the_o full_a revelation_n over_o and_o besides_o the_o gospel_n and_o by_o mean_n thereof_o they_o be_v utter_o become_v brute_n beast_n and_o at_o this_o day_n we_o see_v that_o those_o poor_a beast_n buzie_a their_o head_n about_o as_o doltish_a and_o unsensible_a thing_n as_o any_o can_v be_v but_o it_o be_v the_o just_a vengeance_n of_o god_n who_o have_v give_v they_o over_o to_o a_o wilful_a stubborn_a mind_n as_o much_o have_v be_v do_v to_o other_o fantastical_a person_n and_o special_o of_o our_o day_n which_o have_v trouble_v the_o church_n and_o will_v needs_o have_v their_o vision_n and_o it_o be_v one_o of_o the_o article_n of_o that_o curse_a creature_n seruet_fw-la that_o be_v burn_v for_o he_o say_v that_o the_o holy_a ghost_n have_v not_o reign_v as_o yet_o but_o that_o he_o be_v too_o come_v that_o wicked_a creature_n dishonour_v god_n as_o though_o the_o father_n of_o old_a time_n have_v have_v but_o a_o shadow_n of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n and_o as_o though_o that_o after_o he_o have_v once_o shed_v out_o himself_o visible_o upon_o the_o apostle_n he_o have_v retire_v again_o incontinent_o in_o such_o sort_n as_o the_o church_n have_v be_v destitute_a of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n behold_v what_o he_o do_v set_v down_o and_o as_o in_o respect_n of_o himself_o he_o will_v have_v make_v himself_o a_o mahomet_n to_o have_v the_o holy_a ghost_n at_o his_o commandment_n but_o a_o man_n may_v see_v how_o the_o devil_n have_v carry_v he_o away_o and_o it_o be_v requisite_a that_o god_n shall_v bring_v some_o such_o man_n to_o that_o point_n to_o the_o end_n we_o may_v the_o more_o abhor_v they_o but_o for_o our_o part_n let_v we_o follow_v the_o order_n that_o i_o have_v tell_v already_o that_o be_v to_o wit_n let_v we_o be_v teach_v according_a to_o the_o rule_n that_o god_n have_v ordain_v and_o let_v we_o not_o be_v so_o heady_a as_o to_o bind_v god_n to_o agree_v to_o our_o desire_n nor_o to_o our_o fashion_n but_o let_v we_o content_v we_o with_o the_o holy_a scripture_n see_v that_o god_n have_v enclose_v we_o within_o

this_o thing_n be_v unknown_a too_o the_o heathen_a man_n therefore_o let_v we_o remember_v well_o the_o doctrine_n that_o be_v contain_v here_o which_o be_v conformable_a to_o the_o say_n of_o our_o

must_v well_o consider_v this_o here_o we_o see_v also_o why_o saint_n paul_n say_v that_o he_o blame_v and_o condemn_v himself_o to_o the_o end_n he_o may_v be_v the_o first_o in_o the_o rank_n when_o the_o condemn_a of_o other_o shall_v come_v in_o question_n to_o be_v brief_a we_o that_o have_v the_o charge_n to_o bear_v about_o the_o word_n of_o god_n shall_v be_v so_o much_o the_o more_o blameworthy_a though_o we_o have_v faithful_o teach_v that_o which_o god_n himself_o have_v shed_v out_o upon_o we_o ▪_o by_o the_o gift_n of_o his_o holy_a spirit_n if_o we_o have_v not_o begin_v to_o show_v the_o same_o at_o our_o own_o person_n and_o so_o must_v we_o amend_v other_o let_v we_o first_o amend_v ourselves_o must_v we_o exhort_v other_o let_v we_o first_o exhort_v ourselves_o and_o let_v we_o always_o be_v the_o first_o in_o lead_v of_o the_o dance_n special_o when_o we_o rebuke_v such_o as_o have_v do_v amiss_o let_v we_o practice_v that_o which_o saint_n paul_n say_v that_o be_v to_o wit_n let_v we_o use_v all_o softness_n in_o reprove_v they_o that_o have_v do_v amiss_o and_o that_o it_o be_v so_o look_v upon_o thyself_o say_v he_o and_o if_o thou_o find_v

thus_o we_o see_v what_o we_o have_v to_o gather_v that_o we_o may_v profit_v ourselves_o by_o this_o text_n that_o be_v to_o wit_n that_o as_o oft_o as_o it_o shall_v please_v god_n to_o correct_v we_o after_o what_o manner_n so_o ever_o it_o be_v we_o must_v show_v that_o when_o we_o be_v desirous_a to_o comfort_v other_o man_n that_o be_v in_o like_a trouble_n we_o have_v be_v good_a and_o

to_o be_v see_v and_o certain_a it_o be_v that_o if_o we_o serve_v not_o god_n yea_o though_o we_o fear_v that_o we_o shall_v have_v he_o against_o we_o it_o be_v but_o a_o slavish_a manner_n of_o

give_v unto_o he_o as_o we_o may_v say_v lord_n we_o be_v thy_o and_o reason_n it_o be_v that_o every_o one_o of_o we_o shall_v dedicate_v himself_o unto_o thou_o and_o labour_n to_o glorify_v thy_o

nineteen_o psalm_n and_o in_o other_o like_o place_n but_o all_o this_o do_v easy_o agree_v together_o that_o be_v to_o wit_n that_o in_o serve_v of_o god_n we_o must_v be_v lead_v ▪_o with_o a_o free_a mind_v affection_n and_o yet_o nevertheless_o must_v assure_v ourselves_o that_o god_n will_v not_o suffer_v our_o labour_n to_o be_v unprofitable_a according_a also_o as_o saint_n paul_n

no_o serve_v of_o god_n after_o the_o manner_n of_o child_n but_o after_o the_o manner_n of_o those_o that_o be_v hire_v for_o wage_n by_o the_o day_n what_o be_v to_o be_v do_v then_o we_o must_v have_v a_o free-hearted_a affection_n too_o dedicate_v ourselves_o whole_o unto_o god_n and_o to_o give_v ourselves_o whole_o to_o the_o serve_v of_o he_o yea_o even_o as_o well_o in_o woe_n as_o in_o

a_o poor_a man_n be_v when_o god_n scourge_v he_o and_o make_v he_o too_o feel_v such_o misery_n as_o it_o may_v seem_v to_o he_o that_o he_o have_v god_n against_o he_o we_o see_v there_o be_v no_o

suffer_v any_o misery_n â–ª_o and_o of_o be_v patient_a in_o adversity_n we_o be_v fleshly_a and_o we_o mount_v no_o high_a than_o our_o sensualtie_n be_v able_a to_o comprehend_v that_o be_v to_o say_v that_o we_o may_v endure_v disease_n we_o may_v be_v put_v too_o some_o trouble_n this_o or_o that_o may_v happen_v unto_o we_o but_o the_o great_a mischief_n of_o all_o which_o be_v able_a to_o

so_o therefore_o when_o god_n show_v himself_o so_o sore_o against_o man_n behold_v it_o be_v a_o temptation_n which_o pass_v all_o that_o ever_o we_o may_v endure_v in_o our_o body_n and_o here_o you_o see_v why_o i_o say_v how_o it_o be_v good_a to_o try_v that_o thing_n thorough_o which_o be_v contain_v here_o job_n then_o say_v that_o he_o will_v feign_v that_o his_o distress_n be_v well_o

in_o bitterness_n by_o reason_n of_o god_n say_v arrow_n which_o have_v pierce_v i_o behold_v whereat_o he_o begin_v but_o it_o seem_v here_o that_o he_o frame_v a_o unjust_a complaint_n when_o he_o

that_o he_o can_v not_o justify_v himself_o for_o his_o sin_n be_v manifest_a and_o he_o be_v convince_v of_o it_o but_o he_o accuse_v god_n of_o cruelty_n or_o overgreat_a rigour_n my_o punishment_n say_v he_o be_v overgreat_a i_o be_o not_o able_a to_o bear_v it_o thou_o will_v chase_v i_o over_o all_o the_o earth_n i_o be_o not_o able_a to_o stand_v before_o thy_o face_n how_o do_v thou_o handle_v i_o we_o see_v here_o that_o although_o this_o wretched_a caitiff_n can_v not_o deny_v but_o he_o be_v punish_v just_o yet_o notwithstanding_o he_o have_v his_o startinghole_n that_o god_n punish_v he_o not_o upright_o but_o pass_v measure_n in_o rigorousness_n against_o he_o i_o say_v it_o seem_v that_o job_n do_v the_o like_a here_o for_o he_o say_v it_o be_v no_o marvel_n though_o he_o be_v in_o great_a distress_n because_o the_o affliction_n which_o he_o endure_v be_v exceed_v great_a and_o much_o more_o heavy_a as_o if_o he_o shall_v say_v he_o can_v not_o lament_v enough_o see_v that_o god_n handle_v he_o so_o rough_o but_o we_o have_v see_v how_o he_o have_v come_v already_o even_o to_o the_o curse_v of_o his_o byrthday_n and_o how_o he_o will_v that_o he_o have_v be_v bear_v dead_a and_o not_o only_o so_o but_o he_o also_o ban_v the_o day_n wherein_o he_o be_v bear_v it_o seem_v then_o that_o job_n may_v not_o be_v excuse_v and_o in_o deed_n as_o i_o have_v tell_v you_o already_o although_o he_o have_v a_o good_a case_n yet_o do_v he_o handle_v it_o amiss_o and_o it_o behove_v man_n to_o know_v how_o there_o be_v some_o faultiness_n in_o this_o respect_n nevertheless_o he_o cease_v not_o too_o speak_v truth_n when_o he_o say_v that_o the_o misery_n which_o he_o endure_v be_v so_o great_a and_o so_o extreme_a as_o even_o his_o word_n be_v swallow_v up_o in_o so_o much_o as_o in_o that_o behalf_n he_o be_v as_o a_o man_n overwhelm_v which_o have_v no_o liveliness_n in_o he_o so_o that_o all_o that_o ever_o he_o be_v able_a too_o say_v be_v nothing_o in_o comparison_n of_o the_o affliction_n wherewith_o god_n press_v he_o let_v we_o mark_v therefore_o that_o we_o have_v here_o two_o thing_n the_o one_o be_v that_o we_o see_v what_o a_o poor_a silly_a creature_n be_v when_o god_n press_v he_o with_o his_o judgement_n as_o i_o have_v say_v already_o and_o the_o other_o be_v that_o we_o shall_v know_v that_o in_o fight_v against_o our_o temptation_n although_o we_o do_v the_o best_a we_o can_v too_o withstand_v they_o and_o too_o submit_v ourselves_o unto_o god_n yet_o notwithstanding_o we_o sway_v aside_o either_o one_o way_n or_o other_o through_o infirmity_n so_o as_o there_o be_v never_o sufficient_a strength_n in_o we_o except_o god_n hold_v we_o up_o and_o suffer_v we_o not_o to_o bow_v at_o all_o and_o why_o so_o it_o be_v expedient_a for_o we_o to_o know_v that_o we_o be_v not_o make_v of_o steel_n nor_o that_o we_o be_v not_o as_o rock_n of_o stone_n but_o that_o we_o be_v mortal_a man_n full_a of_o frailty_n it_o be_v behooveful_a that_o god_n shall_v make_v we_o feel_v this_o also_o although_o he_o assist_v we_o in_o our_o affliction_n so_o as_o we_o be_v not_o overcome_v yet_o do_v he_o make_v we_o to_o be_v wound_v and_o to_o halt_n that_o be_v to_o say_v he_o leave_v always_o some_o feebleness_n in_v we_o which_o show_v itself_o in_o the_o mighty_a operation_n which_o he_o give_v we_o thus_o you_o see_v the_o two_o point_n which_o we_o have_v to_o consider_v here_o but_o first_o of_o all_o let_v we_o call_v to_o remembrance_n that_o which_o i_o have_v touch_v heretofore_o which_o be_v that_o if_o we_o be_v tempt_v and_o whensoever_o we_o be_v pinch_v with_o any_o adversity_n in_o our_o body_n we_o must_v the_o more_o fear_n still_o this_o spiritual_a temptation_n when_o god_n cite_v we_o to_o his_o
make_v himself_o as_o valiant_a as_o can_v be_v and_o it_o seem_v that_o nothing_o shall_v be_v able_a to_o daunt_v we_o let_v we_o rather_o consider_v what_o our_o feebleness_n be_v too_o the_o end_n that_o we_o may_v not_o be_v puff_v up_o with_o vain_a presumption_n but_o may_v understand_v how_o we_o be_v but_o poor_a creature_n &_o that_o we_o can_v well_o hold_v out_o one_o minute_n of_o a_o hour_n against_o the_o assault_n that_o may_v be_v give_v we_o on_o either_o side_n except_o we_o flee_v to_o our_o god_n pray_v he_o to_o strengthen_v we_o you_o see_v then_o what_o we_o have_v to_o do_v when_o we_o behold_v the_o example_n of_o job._n moreover_o let_v we_o mark_v well_o this_o word_n when_o he_o say_v that_o the_o arrow_n of_o god_n be_v in_o he_o and_o that_o the_o venom_n of_o they_o have_v drink_v up_o his_o spirit_n or_o that_o his_o spirit_n have_v suck_v in_o the_o venom_n for_o either_o of_o both_o way_n may_v be_v speak_v but_o the_o principal_a point_n that_o we_o have_v too_o mark_v here_o be_v that_o job_n do_v we_o to_o understand_v here_o that_o he_o have_v not_o to_o deal_v with_o man_n nor_o that_o the_o case_n stand_v as_o when_o we_o endure_v some_o affliction_n in_o the_o flesh_n i_o know_v say_v he_o that_o it_o be_v god_n which_o war_v against_o i_o and_o not_o only_o so_o but_o his_o arrow_n also_o say_v he_o be_v in_o i_o they_o have_v strike_v i_o too_o the_o heart_n and_o be_v run_v quite_o through_o i_o in_o the_o first_o place_n job_n show_v that_o he_o be_v fain_o too_o endure_v battle_n as_o if_o god_n himself_o war_v against_o he_o and_o what_o a_o matter_n be_v it_o when_o a_o mortal_a man_n who_o be_v a_o thing_n of_o nothing_o shall_v be_v force_v so_o far_o as_o too_o feel_v that_o god_n prepare_v and_o bend_v himself_o against_o he_o and_o yet_o notwithstanding_o be_v able_a to_o outstande_v it_o how_o shall_v that_o be_v possible_a nevertheless_o as_o i_o have_v say_v already_o we_o must_v needs_o be_v bring_v to_o that_o point_n for_o our_o own_o profit_n and_o in_o good_a sooth_n we_o profit_v evil_a under_o god_n scourge_n if_o in_o the_o mean_a while_o we_o beat_v our_o brain_n or_o reason_n with_o man_n to_o see_v from_o whence_o the_o adversity_n come_v unto_o we_o and_o linger_v here_o still_o below_o this_o be_v very_o ill_o consider_v of_o we_o as_o for_o example_n if_o one_o that_o be_v disease_v think_v with_o himself_o such_o a_o inconvenience_n be_v light_a upon_o i_o lo_o such_o a_o thing_n be_v the_o cause_n and_o that_o he_o can_v suffer_v any_o affliction_n whereby_o god_n shall_v give_v he_o occasion_n too_o feel_v his_o wrath_n this_o man_n be_v far_o from_o receive_v fruit_n by_o the_o chastisement_n which_o god_n send_v he_o i_o say_v when_o we_o cease_v not_o

we_o will_v take_v upon_o he_o to_o be_v wise_a than_o his_o fellow_n but_o also_o we_o can_v find_v in_o our_o heart_n to_o acknowledge_v our_o own_o slenderness_n to_o humble_v ourselves_o even_o when_o we_o come_v before_o god_n therefore_o we_o have_v need_v to_o be_v bring_v low_a and_o to_o be_v warn_v as_o the_o scripture_n do_v it_o that_o we_o must_v not_o go_v about_o to_o comprehend_v

as_o i_o say_v afore_o but_o by_o the_o way_n we_o must_v come_v to_o that_o which_o saint_n paul_n say_v in_o the_o first_o to_o the_o corinthian_n that_o be_v to_o wit_n that_o our_o saviour_n have_v give_v we_o of_o his_o own_o spirit_n whereby_o we_o know_v and_o comprehend_v that_o which_o be_v above_o all_o our_o capacity_n then_o although_o we_o be_v not_o of_o counsel_n with_o god_n yet_o have_v he_o show_v we_o the_o favour_n and_o honour_n to_o disclose_v unto_o we_o that_o which_o be_v unknown_a and_o hide_a from_o we_o how_o be_v that_o there_o be_v none_o that_o know_v

the_o thing_n that_o be_v hide_v from_o we_o and_o pass_v the_o reach_n of_o man_n reason_n it_o be_v not_o to_o the_o end_n we_o shall_v know_v all_o that_o be_v in_o he_o for_o we_o must_v hold_v

for_o when_o we_o yield_v such_o authority_n unto_o man_n what_o do_v we_o else_o but_o rob_v god_n of_o his_o authority_n and_o pre-eminence_n this_o extremity_n therefore_o be_v to_o be_v condemn_v as_o well_o as_o the_o other_o the_o mean_a betwixt_o these_o two_o vice_n be_v that_o when_o we_o see_v that_o god_n have_v bestow_v of_o his_o gracious_a gift_n upon_o any_o man_n we_o must_v have_v

whereunto_o we_o ourselves_o be_v enter_v already_o he_o that_o know_v god_n truth_n must_v not_o keep_v it_o close_o to_o himself_o as_o though_o it_o be_v but_o for_o he_o alone_o what_o then_o he_o

although_o we_o know_v he_o to_o be_v faulty_a but_o rather_o advise_v ourselves_o to_o bring_v he_o some_o medicine_n to_o heal_v he_o let_v we_o beware_v we_o set_v not_o the_o cart_n before_o the_o

for_o certess_n the_o thing_n that_o enforce_v man_n to_o be_v to_o swift_a be_v for_o that_o they_o be_v ashamed_a lest_o they_o shall_v not_o seem_v sharp-witted_a enough_o too_o judge_v at_o the_o

show_v that_o which_o be_v write_v in_o genesis_n namely_o that_o his_o spirit_n shall_v not_o strive_v any_o long_o with_o man_n god_n have_v bear_v with_o as_o outrageous_a wickedness_n as_o can_v be_v and_o when_o he_o see_v that_o man_n abuse_v his_o patience_n after_o that_o manner_n he_o say_v i_o will_v no_o long_o plead_v with_o you_o i_o must_v be_v fain_o to_o put_v to_o my_o hand_n thus_o you_o see_v how_o it_o be_v say_v here_o that_o the_o wicked_a may_v well_o file_v their_o tongue_n to_o justify_v themselves_o for_o they_o can_v good_a skill_n to_o chop_v logic_n with_o

vengeance_n upon_o their_o head_n so_o then_o man_n may_v be_v arm_v with_o their_o tongue_n to_o plead_v against_o god_n but_o god_n have_v his_o hand_n arm_v and_o will_v stretch_v it_o out_o of_o

again_o for_o we_o have_v enough_o in_o the_o holy_a scripture_n wherein_o he_o show_v himself_o to_o be_v judge_n of_o the_o whole_a world_n thus_o you_o see_v what_o we_o have_v to_o mark_v in_o

that_o he_o will_v bliss_n their_o honest_a behaviour_n and_o make_v they_o to_o profit_v more_o in_o two_o year_n than_o those_o overhast_a efellowe_n shall_v do_v in_o four_o we_o see_v what_o

to_o ehe_fw-ge shame_n of_o those_o that_o have_v live_v long_o and_o misspend_v the_o time_n that_o god_n have_v give_v they_o or_o rather_o utter_o lose_v it_o you_o see_v then_o that_o the_o mean_v which_o we_o have_v to_o hold_v be_v that_o the_o reverence_n which_o young_a folk_n bear_v to_o their_o elder_n must_v not_o hinder_v the_o continual_a maintenance_n of_o the_o truth_n that_o god_n shall_v not_o be_v honour_v &_o vice_n suppress_v for_o it_o may_v come_v to_o pass_v that_o the_o elder_a sort_n shall_v be_v destitute_a of_o god_n spirit_n or_o else_o lewd_a person_n that_o shall_v have_v nothing_o in_o they_o but_o craft_n and_o unfaithfulness_n or_o else_o they_o shall_v be_v wilful_a and_o brainless_a now_o in_o such_o caces_fw-la ought_v young_a folk_n to_o be_v

and_o holy_a no._n then_o let_v we_o mark_v that_o this_o modesty_n import_v not_o that_o young_a man_n shall_v become_v sheepishe_a to_o discern_v and_o know_v nothing_o but_o that_o it_o be_v enough_o that_o they_o presume_v not_o of_o themselves_o to_o skirmish_n and_o cast_v their_o froth_n before_o their_o time_n let_v they_o hearken_v let_v they_o be_v teachable_a let_v they_o be_v

see_v the_o elder_a sort_n show_v not_o good_a example_n special_o that_o they_o pervert_v the_o good_a by_o turn_v it_o into_o evil_n then_o as_o i_o say_v it_o be_v mete_v that_o god_n spirit_n shall_v show_v itself_o where_o it_o be_v like_o as_o in_o our_o time_n they_o that_o have_v be_v mislead_v in_o the_o superstition_n of_o popery_n the_o long_a they_o have_v live_v in_o the_o world_n have_v still_o the_o lesser_a knowledge_n now_o to_o tarry_v till_o god_n shall_v serve_v his_o turn_n by_o they_o i_o mean_v common_o it_o be_v not_o needful_a these_o than_o be_v age_a man_n that_o have_v have_v long_a experience_n but_o what_o for_o that_o they_o have_v be_v plunge_v in_o darkness_n and_o there_o be_v no_o knowledge_n of_o god_n in_o they_o nor_o any_o pureness_n of_o

there_o be_v no_o likelihood_n of_o any_o mean_n to_o bring_v they_o out_o of_o they_o now_o if_o god_n listen_v to_o call_v young_a man_n to_o publish_v his_o word_n abroad_o it_o be_v no_o reason_n that_o the_o holy_a ghost_n shall_v be_v so_o bridle_a that_o young_a man_n may_v not_o speak_v and_o old_a man_n be_v content_v to_o hear_v they_o true_a it_o be_v that_o like_a as_o god_n call_v some_o of_o all_o sort_n so_o have_v it_o common_o be_v his_o will_n to_o be_v serve_v by_o the_o elder_a sort_n nevertheless_o he_o have_v declare_v also_o that_o his_o truth_n be_v not_o tie_v unto_o age_n so_o then_o we_o see_v now_o what_o modesty_n ought_v to_o be_v in_o all_o man_n general_o and_o special_o in_o young_a man_n that_o be_v to_o wit_n that_o they_o must_v yield_v

have_v need_v too_o be_v guide_v and_o govern_v by_o those_o that_o be_v of_o more_o experience_n this_o do_v we_o shall_v not_o need_v to_o be_v restrain_v from_o judge_v under_o the_o shadow_n of_o

be_v so_o for_o discretion_n ought_v to_o be_v match_v with_o zeal_n according_a as_o i_o have_v declare_v already_o that_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n contain_v both_o of_o they_o in_o he_o so_o than_o if_o there_o be_v modesty_n in_o man_n there_o must_v be_v also_o zeal_n and_o discretion_n and_o we_o must_v not_o only_o not_o be_v bridle_v by_o the_o authority_n of_o such_o as_o have_v live_v long_o but_o also_o if_o the_o whole_a world_n be_v bring_v against_o we_o yet_o ought_v not_o antiquity_n too_o prejudice_n the_o thing_n that_o be_v rightful_a and_o necessary_a as_o how_o i_o have_v tell_v you_o already_o that_o if_o all_o the_o old_a man_n in_o the_o popedom_n have_v conspire_v against_o the_o gospel_n and_o will_v have_v other_o man_n to_o stand_v to_o their_o accustom_a

although_o that_o the_o old_a man_n set_v themselves_o against_o they_o and_o will_v have_v all_o other_o man_n to_o hold_v themselves_o to_o their_o custom_n because_o they_o have_v maintain_v the_o evil_a a_o long_a time_n for_o those_o to_o who_o god_n have_v give_v better_a grace_n ought_v to_o step_v up_o against_o they_o howbeit_o it_o behoove_v we_o to_o pass_v further_o and_o if_o any_o man_n say_v unto_o we_o how_o now_o it_o be_v above_o a_o hundred_o year_n ago_o since_o our_o father_n and_o forefather_n have_v live_v after_o that_o sort_n or_o it_o be_v five_o hundred_o year_n

we_o see_v now_o that_o to_o be_v modest_a it_o behove_v we_o not_o to_o be_v blind_a buzzard_n but_o to_o keep_v a_o mean_a and_o measure_n and_o this_o be_v it_o which_o eliu_n mean_v by_o add_v i_o

the_o same_o must_v cause_v we_o to_o persist_v always_o in_o his_o obedience_n and_o to_o walk_v in_o great_a fear_n and_o carefulness_n see_v that_o if_o god_n shall_v quench_v the_o light_n that_o

that_o god_n be_v not_o bind_v too_o age_n nor_o to_o the_o state_n and_o quality_n of_o man_n when_o it_o please_v god_n too_o advance_v a_o man_n too_o dignity_n if_o he_o will_v have_v he_o to_o

a_o man_n be_v in_o degree_n the_o more_o shall_v he_o be_v know_v to_o be_v a_o double_a beast_n as_o for_o example_n
if_o there_o be_v a_o man_n choose_v to_o preach_v god_n word_n and_o god_n be_v mind_v to_o show_v favour_n to_o his_o church_n he_o will_v endue_v the_o say_a man_n with_o his_o spirit_n he_o will_v

that_o he_o will_v not_o speak_v any_o thing_n which_o he_o have_v not_o think_v and_o conceive_v in_o himself_o this_o be_v well_o worthy_a to_o be_v note_v for_o thereupon_o we_o may_v gather_v after_o what_o sort_n he_o ought_v too_o be_v dispose_v which_o bear_v about_o the_o word_n of_o god_n namely_o that_o he_o must_v not_o have_v store_n of_o bibblebabble_n at_o his_o tongue_n end_n nor_o cast_v forth_o word_n at_o all_o adventure_n no_o nor_o yet_o play_v a_o enter_v lude_fw-la but_o according_a as_o god_n have_v teach_v he_o so_o must_v he_o deal_v forth_o that_o thing_n which_o be_v print_v in_o his_o heart_n unto_o those_o over_o who_o god_n have_v give_v he_o charge_n so_o then_o will_v we_o serve_v god_n pure_o in_o our_o office_n it_o behove_v we_o first_o and_o for_o most_o too_o bridle_v our_o tongue_n that_o they_o speak_v not_o any_o thing_n but_o that_o which_o be_v print_v in_o our_o heart_n and_o sure_o we_o hear_v how_o it_o be_v say_v by_o david_n and_o likewise_o allege_v by_o s._n paul_n who_o apply_v it_o to_o all_o the_o minister_n of_o god_n word_n i_o have_v believe_v and_o therefore_o will_v i_o speak_v true_a it_o be_v that_o this_o

at_o leastwise_o his_o doctrine_n ought_v to_o be_v print_v in_o we_o and_o to_o take_v root_n there_o and_o afterward_o our_o mouth_n shall_v bear_v witness_n that_o we_o know_v it_o to_o be_v short_a it_o behove_v we_o too_o have_v be_v teach_v by_o god_n before_o we_o can_v be_v good_a master_n or_o teacher_n and_o special_o when_o we_o preach_v let_v it_o not_o only_o be_v to_o teach_v

without_o feel_v the_o operation_n of_o it_o in_o himself_o what_o do_v he_o else_o but_o play_v a_o part_n in_o a_o interlude_n and_o what_o a_o treachery_n be_v that_o what_o a_o defile_n be_v it_o of_o god_n word_n so_o then_o let_v we_o be_v think_v we_o thorough_o and_o as_o oft_o as_o we_o go_v up_o into_o the_o pulpit_n let_v we_o remember_v well_o the_o lesson_n that_o be_v give_v we_o here_o namely_o that_o the_o rightness_n of_o our_o heart_n must_v show_v itself_o in_o our_o tongue_n and_o therewithal_o also_o when_o we_o see_v that_o a_o doctrine_n be_v good_a and_o that_o the_o man_n which_o speak_v labour_v to_o edify_v we_o let_v we_o know_v that_o we_o be_v unthankful_a and_o utter_o rebellious_a against_o god_n if_o we_o hear_v not_o his_o matter_n with_o all_o humility_n now_o when_o eliu_n make_v this_o preface_n he_o speak_v not_o after_o the_o manner_n of_o man_n as_o in_o the_o way_n of_o courtesy_n but_o he_o show_v after_o what_o sort_n god_n intend_v to_o hold_v we_o to_o himself_o by_o what_o mean_n be_v that_o behold_v i_o say_v he_o hear_v i_o for_o there_o be_v nothing_o but_o right_a in_o my_o talk_n it_o be_v all_o one_o as_o if_o he_o do_v set_v it_o down_o for_o a_o rule_n in_o god_n name_n that_o if_o a_o doctrine_n that_o be_v preach_v be_v good_a and_o holy_a and_o we_o convince_v that_o it_o be_v so_o then_o if_o we_o yield_v not_o with_o all_o reverence_n to_o frame_v ourselves_o thereafter_o we_o shall_v not_o be_v guilty_a of_o resist_v a_o man_n but_o it_o be_v all_o one_o as_o if_o we_o spite_v the_o live_a god_n so_o

unto_o we_o let_v we_o not_o be_v as_o wild_a folk_n but_o let_v we_o yield_v ourselves_o teacheable_a in_o the_o thing_n that_o we_o know_v to_o proceed_v from_o he_o and_o forasmuch_o as_o the_o

the_o doctrine_n whether_o it_o be_v of_o god_n or_o no._n and_o that_o be_v the_o cause_n why_o it_o be_v say_v that_o we_o must_v try_v the_o spirit_n and_o this_o must_v be_v well_o note_v for_o we_o see_v that_o the_o wretched_a papist_n suffer_v themselves_o to_o be_v lead_v without_o any_o discretion_n &_o the_o faith_n which_o they_o have_v be_v nothing_o but_o mere_a sheepishness_n that_o man_n must_v stop_v their_o eye_n and_o have_v no_o reason_n at_o all_o in_o
dispose_v of_o all_o his_o creature_n he_o hold_v all_o thing_n in_o his_o hand_n and_o nothing_o happen_v in_o this_o world_n by_o chance_n but_o all_o thing_n according_a to_o his_o will._n this_o doctrine_n be_v give_v we_o in_o the_o holy_a scripture_n and_o it_o behoove_v we_o to_o receive_v it_o without_o gainsay_v now_o than_o if_o we_o inquire_v how_o and_o why_o and_o will_v that_o god_n whensoever_o he_o work_v shall_v yield_v we_o a_o reason_n of_o his_o do_n and_o will_v enter_v into_o disputation_n to_o check_v against_o he_o we_o pass_v our_o bound_n as_o we_o see_v these_o

of_o sin_n then_o be_v evil_a to_o be_v father_v upon_o he_o lo_o here_o a_o curse_a thing_n for_o it_o behove_v we_o to_o hold_v ourselves_o within_o the_o compass_n which_o the_o holy_a scripture_n

of_o they_o no_o but_o the_o chief_a cause_n be_v that_o we_o shall_v behold_v god_n work_n whereby_o he_o call_v we_o to_o he_o and_o wherefore_o be_v our_o ear_n make_v only_o to_o have_v
