A81085	The little horns doom & dovvnfall or A scripture-prophesie of King James, and King Charles, and of this present Parliament, unfolded. Wherein it appeares, that the late tragedies that have bin acted upon the scene of these three nations: and particularly, the late Kings doom and death, was so long ago, as by Daniel pred-eclared [sic]. And what the issue of all will be, is also discovered; which followes in the second part. By M. Cary, a servant of Jesus Christ.

away_o his_o dominion_n and_o destroy_v he_o unto_o the_o end_n and_o what_o the_o issue_n of_o all_o this_o will_v be_v be_v discover_v in_o the_o follow_a verse_n but_o of_o that_o in_o its_o

spirit_n of_o god_n the_o author_n of_o the_o scripture_n and_o so_o god_n with_o such_o sleight_n spirit_n will_v not_o have_v the_o glory_n of_o his_o pre-decreeing_a of_o the_o thing_n he_o will_v

of_o his_o word_n of_o which_o we_o be_v to_o give_v he_o the_o glory_n and_o three_o though_o some_o interpreter_n have_v fail_v of_o truth_n which_o it_o may_v be_v have_v be_v the_o harden_v of_o the_o heart_n of_o some_o yet_o this_o will_v not_o be_v a_o sufficient_a discharge_n for_o any_o from_o their_o duty_n of_o observe_v these_o thing_n that_o when_o the_o truth_n appear_v god_n may_v

beforehand_o by_o many_o precious_a saint_n but_o five_o this_o be_v certain_a that_o when_o the_o very_a mind_n of_o god_n in_o prophecy_n be_v uner_o lay_v open_v be_v clear_o and_o convince_o discover_v to_o his_o saint_n and_o servant_n that_o desire_v to_o pry_v into_o and_o observe_v these_o thing_n according_a to_o their_o duty_n that_o even_o then_o some_o will_v not_o receive_v

they_o that_o have_v wisdom_n from_o above_o shall_v have_v these_o thing_n reveal_v to_o they_o and_o shall_v understand_v they_o as_o appear_v in_o the_o same_o scripture_n for_o when_o truth_n be_v reveal_v the_o child_n of_o truth_n have_v one_o and_o the_o same_o spirit_n shall_v see_v it_o with_o the_o same_o eye_n and_o rejoice_v with_o the_o same_o joy_n in_o see_v of_o it_o my_o sheep_n know_v my_o voice_n john_n 10._o 27._o they_o know_v that_o it_o be_v my_o voice_n and_o not_o another_o voice_n and_o indeed_o it_o be_v chief_o for_o their_o sake_n who_o know_v his_o voice_n who_o have_v his_o spirit_n that_o all_o truth_n be_v reveal_v but_o all_o these_o be_v general_a answer_n but_o for_o this_o particular_a interpretation_n i_o have_v only_o this_o to_o say_v that_o i_o do_v not_o pretend_v to_o be_v any_o more_o exempt_v from_o uncertainty_n than_o any_o other_o of_o the_o dear_a servant_n of_o god_n have_v be_v to_o who_o god_n have_v very_o often_o reveal_v his_o secret_n though_o sometime_o some_o thing_n of_o their_o own_o supposition_n have_v slip_v from_o they_o and_o therefore_o i_o shall_v not_o press_v any_o to_o believe_v these_o thing_n because_o i_o have_v say_v they_o unless_o they_o do_v therein_o hear_v the_o voice_n of_o christ_n and_o his_o spirit_n set_v they_o home_o upon_o they_o for_o this_o i_o know_v that_o truth_n be_v powerful_a enough_o to_o to_o prevail_v with_o saint_n and_o for_o the_o truth_n of_o these_o thing_n of_o which_o i_o have_v speak_v or_o of_o whatever_o be_v lay_v down_o in_o the_o follow_a discourse_n i_o leave_v they_o to_o the_o great_a god_n who_o have_v put_v i_o upon_o the_o publish_n of_o they_o to_o make_v they_o prevalent_a with_o as_o many_o as_o he_o intend_v good_a unto_o by_o they_o and_o further_o this_o i_o must_v profess_v that_o it_o have_v not_o be_v a_o few_o day_n only_o or_o since_o the_o last_o king_n death_n only_o that_o i_o have_v thus_o be_v make_v to_o understand_v this_o scripture_n but_o i_o thus_o understand_v it_o for_o above_o nine_o year_n ago_o and_o to_o this_o the_o lord_n be_v witness_v and_o several_a godly_a people_n who_o i_o have_v make_v acquaint_v with_o it_o at_o several_a time_n so_o that_o when_o the_o late_a king_n be_v in_o his_o height_n i_o declare_v my_o confidence_n that_o the_o parliament_n shall_v prevail_v over_o he_o and_o at_o last_o destroy_v he_o but_o see_v as_o i_o have_v say_v that_o all_o prophecy_n be_v best_a understand_v in_o the_o fulfil_n of_o they_o the_o truth_n of_o these_o thing_n will_v therefore_o doubtless_o now_o be_v the_o more_o prevail_v with_o saint_n but_o one_o word_n more_o and_o that_o be_v this_o that_o though_o it_o be_v true_a that_o usual_o saint_n know_v the_o voice_n of_o christ_n and_o be_v able_a to_o say_v certain_o this_o be_v or_o this_o be_v not_o the_o voice_n of_o christ_n i_o say_v though_o it_o be_v thus_o usual_o with_o they_o yet_o there_o be_v some_o case_n in_o which_o they_o be_v uncertain_a and_o some_o truth_n about_o which_o they_o can_v neither_o say_v that_o it_o be_v truth_n or_o that_o it_o be_v not_o truth_n and_o now_o if_o this_o be_v the_o case_n of_o any_o about_o these_o thing_n i_o have_v speak_v of_o i_o have_v only_o this_o to_o say_v to_o they_o that_o though_o they_o can_v receive_v they_o present_o yet_o let_v they_o beware_v how_o they_o sleight_v they_o and_o this_o i_o must_v tell_v they_o that_o if_o the_o lord_n have_v not_o all_o along_o hitherto_o in_o the_o work_n of_o his_o providence_n which_o in_o many_o particular_n be_v very_o observable_a evidence_v the_o truth_n hereof_o and_o if_o he_o do_v not_o demonstrate_v it_o more_o and_o more_o it_o may_v be_v the_o more_o tolerable_a for_o they_o thus_o to_o sleight_n it_o but_o consider_v how_o wonderful_o from_o day_n to_o day_n this_o be_v clear_v and_o will_v be_v clear_v oh_o let_v they_o beware_v how_o they_o wilful_o shut_v their_o

to_o destroy_v it_o unto_o the_o end_n thus_o it_o be_v also_o evident_o the_o sense_n of_o these_o verse_n compare_v together_o that_o by_o the_o judgement_n sit_v be_v mean_v a_o certain_a number_n
