possess_v some_o in_o the_o time_n of_o christ_n he_o make_v they_o cut_v themselves_o with_o sharp_a stone_n be_v make_v they_o rend_v their_o flesh_n and_o tear_v and_o foam_n in_o a_o fearful_a

time_n be_v far_o worse_a this_o be_v the_o power_n of_o the_o devil_n there_o be_v no_o tush_o to_o be_v make_v of_o it_o let_v we_o make_v better_a use_n of_o it_o to_o bless_v god_n for_o our_o

much_o hurt_n as_o he_o will_v it_o will_v be_v woeful_a for_o many_o of_o we_o nay_o for_o all_o of_o we_o this_o be_v our_o comfort_n say_v chrysostome_n upon_o mat._n 12._o he_o that_o tell_v we_o he_o be_v the_o strong_a man_n tell_v we_o that_o he_o be_v bind_v god_n have_v he_o in_o a_o chain_n he_o can_v do_v more_o than_o he_o permit_v he_o shall_v i_o say_v against_o job_n nay_o not_o to_o the_o swine_n he_o can_v enter_v into_o they_o without_o our_o lord_n leave_v mat._n 8._o therefore_o let_v we_o bless_v god_n that_o have_v keep_v his_o bless_a hand_n of_o protection_n over_o

the_o effect_n of_o his_o power_n let_v we_o take_v heed_n of_o betray_v ourselves_o to_o he_o this_o be_v a_o ordinary_a fault_n in_o regard_n of_o the_o soul_n of_o man_n there_o be_v no_o sin_n in_o the_o world_n that_o the_o devil_n can_v ever_o fasten_v upon_o a_o man_n if_o a_o man_n do_v not_o give_v he_o entertainment_n it_o be_v a_o certain_a truth_n that_o the_o father_n deliver_v unanimous_o say_v issidore_n peluciota_n the_o devil_n may_v deceive_v but_o he_o can_v never_o compel_v we_o so_o austen_n the_o devil_n hurt_v not_o by_o compel_v but_o by_o persuade_v and_o he_o make_v a_o resemblance_n of_o he_o there_o to_o a_o fell_a dog_n or_o a_o filthy_a creature_n that_o be_v tie_v up_o in_o a_o chain_n he_o may_v bark_v but_o he_o can_v bite_v without_o a_o man_n come_v within_o his_o reach_n if_o a_o mad_a dog_n be_v bind_v up_o if_o a_o man_n be_v bite_v he_o may_v thank_v himself_o why_o do_v he_o come_v so_o near_o say_v the_o same_o father_n he_o can_v

such_o in_o appearance_n thus_o the_o father_n say_v many_o of_o they_o justin_n martyr_n speak_v of_o these_o thing_n that_o the_o magician_n do_v say_v direct_o they_o be_v only_o the_o work_n the_o

say_v that_o all_o that_o these_o magician_n do_v be_v a_o feign_a emulation_n of_o that_o that_o be_v do_v by_o aaron_n and_o not_o in_o truth_n so_o jerome_n say_v they_o imitate_v those_o work_n that_o moses_n and_o aaron_n do_v but_o they_o be_v not_o in_o truth_n now_o if_o we_o pitch_v on_o this_o we_o shall_v have_v a_o good_a observation_n and_o that_o be_v this_o you_o see_v the_o great_a mountebank_n of_o the_o world_n the_o devil_n for_o the_o more_o easy_a conveyance_n of_o wickedness_n into_o the_o mind_n of_o man_n you_o see_v how_o be_v imitate_v god_n in_o all_o his_o

he_o bind_v himself_o to_o appear_v three_o god_n speak_v to_o his_o servant_n by_o dream_n so_o do_v the_o devil_n and_o instruct_v people_n in_o strange_a vision_n and_o apparition_n four_o god_n have_v his_o temple_n and_o oracle_n so_o have_v the_o devil_n one_o at_o delphos_n and_o in_o other_o place_n to_o abuse_v people_n by_o doubtful_a answer_n again_o god_n have_v service_n and_o sacrifice_n so_o the_o devil_n have_v sacrifice_n what_o be_v all_o those_o sacrifice_n that_o be_v tender_v to_o a_o imaginary_a godhead_n by_o the_o heathen_n there_o be_v no_o solemnity_n spare_v nay_o the_o devil_n know_v that_o god_n have_v command_v abraham_n to_o sacrifice_v his_o son_n he_o cause_v some_o to_o make_v their_o child_n to_o pass_v through_o the_o fire_n still_o he_o continue_v to_o imitate_v in_o the_o primitive_a time_n he_o make_v the_o heretic_n to_o imitate_v the_o orthodox_n in_o their_o teach_n and_o conversation_n and_o so_o under_o a_o show_n of_o holiness_n sour_v the_o world_n with_o their_o leven_a nazianzen_n say_v of_o julian_n that_o he_o be_v a_o ape_n for_o as_o a_o ape_n imitate_v the_o man_n so_o do_v he_o the_o christian_n in_o a_o

whereas_o he_o be_v a_o chameleon_n one_o that_o have_v no_o truth_n nor_o sincerity_n in_o he_o and_o still_o the_o devil_n have_v do_v the_o like_a the_o author_n of_o that_o imperfect_a work_n of_o

if_o a_o man_n have_v see_v absolom_n pay_v his_o vow_n in_o hebron_n if_o he_o have_v see_v jezebel_n proclaim_v a_o fast_o and_o herod_n talk_v with_o the_o wiseman_n that_o as_o soon_o as_o they_o

there_o be_v somewhat_o that_o go_v for_o faith_n that_o be_v presumption_n that_o be_v counterfeit_n yea_o there_o be_v somewhat_o go_v for_o charity_n and_o be_v nothing_o less_o for_o paul_n say_v a_o man_n may_v give_v all_o his_o good_n to_o the_o poor_a and_o yet_o have_v no_o charity_n then_o for_o the_o use_v of_o this_o belove_v what_o reason_n be_v there_o to_o get_v knowledge_n to_o

that_o have_v poison_v indeed_o in_o they_o the_o devil_n can_v set_v a_o fair_a gloss_n upon_o false_a ware_n no_o question_n of_o that_o again_o second_o in_o regard_n of_o ourselves_o how_o ought_v

second_o i_o will_v we_o can_v learn_v obedience_n from_o the_o creature_n they_o contrary_a to_o their_o nature_n obey_v god_n it_o be_v not_o so_o with_o man_n for_o if_o thing_n run_v not_o in_o
