visible_a when_o reason_n of_o state_n be_v oppose_v to_o god_n prudence_n false_o so_o call_v and_o cunning_a to_o justice_n and_o honesty_n for_o when_o we_o begin_v once_o to_o distrust_v that_o god_n can_v or_o will_v not_o provide_v for_o our_o safety_n and_o fall_v to_o shift_v for_o ourselves_o by_o such_o way_n as_o he_o approve_v not_o we_o forfeit_v our_o title_n to_o his_o good_a

our_o probable_a fear_n into_o certain_a suffering_n and_o very_o oft_o into_o the_o same_o we_o run_v from_o for_o we_o very_o seldom_o do_v wicked_o to_o prevent_v a_o mischief_n but_o that_o very_a mischief_n fall_v upon_o we_o as_o a_o punishment_n for_o that_o wickedness_n a_o hundred_o instance_n may_v be_v give_v out_o of_o story_n and_o most_o man_n breast_n will_v be_v find_v register_n

of_o that_o faith_n when_o in_o distress_n and_o if_o we_o can_v by_o good_a way_n compass_v our_o safety_n never_o strive_v to_o do_v it_o by_o ill_a but_o submit_v and_o expect_v with_o patience_n till_o he_o be_v please_v to_o give_v it_o for_o then_o and_o not_o till_o then_o it_o will_v be_v a_o deliverance_n indeed_o we_o must_v not_o run_v to_o the_o creature_n for_o relief_n in_o danger_n
