and_o garnish_v the_o sepulchre_n of_o the_o righteous_a yet_o we_o have_v judasses_n which_o will_v betray_v christ_n unto_o the_o high_a priest_n i_o can_v reckon_v they_o all_o but_o there_o be_v 3._o transgressor_n nay_o 4._o which_o i_o can_v pass_v over_o 1._o the_o sacrilegious_a churchrobber_n 2._o the_o grind_a oppressor_n 3._o the_o close_a briber_n 4._o the_o deceitful_a lawyer_n all_o these_o do_v their_o best_a nay_o their_o worst_a to_o betray_v christ_n if_o not_o in_o his_o person_n yet_o in_o his_o member_n into_o the_o hand_n of_o the_o hellish_a caiphas_n and_o i_o think_v they_o do_v somewhat_o resemble_v those_o 4._o great_a plague_n mention_v in_o the_o 1._o of_o joel_n which_o be_v the_o caterpillar_n the_o locust_n the_o cankerworm_n &_o the_o grasshopper_n the_o caterpillar_n eat_v the_o first_o fruit_n when_o they_o be_v in_o set_v to_o he_o i_o compare_v the_o churchrobber_n which_o live_v of_o the_o first_o fruit_n &_o tithe_n which_o by_o the_o law_n be_v due_a to_o god_n the_o locust_n as_o naturalist_n describe_v he_o be_v a_o great_a fly_n which_o live_v upon_o the_o less_o and_o with_o no_o difficulty_n can_v burst_v a_o spider_n web_n wherein_o the_o small_a fly_n be_v quick_o catch_v to_o he_o i_o compare_v the_o oppressor_n which_o devour_v his_o inferior_n and_o will_v with_o no_o less_o difficulty_n pass_v through_o those_o good_a statute_n that_o be_v make_v against_o he_o than_o a_o great_a locust_n will_v burst_v through_o a_o spider_n web_n the_o cankerworm_n do_v secret_o shave_v off_o the_o tender_a bark_n of_o herb_n &_o tree_n before_o he_o can_v be_v perceive_v to_o he_o may_v be_v liken_v the_o briber_n which_o do_v so_o close_o carry_v himself_o that_o none_o can_v perceive_v he_o but_o the_o plant_n which_o he_o feed_v upon_o the_o grasshopper_n have_v a_o chirp_a voice_n to_o allure_v a_o man_n after_o he_o but_o yet_o so_o nimble_a be_v his_o motion_n that_o he_o which_o follow_v he_o shall_v scarce_o find_v he_o like_o to_o it_o be_v the_o deceitful_a lawyer_n which_o with_o fair_a promise_n and_o sugared_a hope_n draw_v his_o client_n after_o he_o but_o so_o nimble_o he_o hop_v up_o and_o down_o for_o his_o own_o advantage_n that_o you_o shall_v perhaps_o not_o find_v he_o twice_o in_o one_o tune_n insomuch_o that_o you_o shall_v be_v worse_o resolve_v in_o the_o end_n than_o you_o be_v in_o the_o beginning_n these_o 4._o lie_n as_o heavy_a upon_o our_o land_n as_o those_o 4._o plague_n do_v upon_o judah_n so_o that_o we_o may_v say_v that_o which_o be_v leave_v by_o the_o locust_n the_o grasshopper_n have_v eat_v and_o the_o residue_n of_o the_o grasshopper_n have_v the_o cankerworm_n eat_v and_o the_o residue_n of_o the_o cankerworm_n have_v the_o caterpillar_n eat_v before_o i_o begin_v to_o speak_v of_o these_o in_o particular_a let_v i_o use_v the_o apostle_n protestation_n i_o say_v the_o truth_n in_o christ_n jesus_n i_o lie_v not_o my_o conscience_n bear_v i_o witness_n

let_v my_o tongue_n cleave_v to_o the_o roof_n of_o my_o mouth_n when_o i_o shall_v be_v afraid_a to_o discharge_v a_o good_a conscience_n in_o god_n behalf_n if_o then_o my_o music_n seem_v harsh_a
