those_o sport_n they_o desire_v he_o but_o by_o no_o mean_n he_o will_v go_v at_o last_o say_v saint_n austin_n by_o a_o familiar_a violence_n they_o draw_v he_o once_o to_o go_v and_o see_v those_o bloody_a sport_n well_o say_v he_o i_o will_v go_v but_o i_o will_v be_v absent_a while_o i_o be_o there_o i_o will_v not_o look_v on_o it_o he_o go_v and_o when_o he_o come_v he_o sit_v there_o among_o the_o rest_n but_o he_o shut_v his_o eye_n and_o will_v not_o see_v any_o of_o those_o sport_n till_o at_o length_n there_o be_v a_o man_n wound_v and_o then_o the_o people_n shout_v he_o have_v shut_v his_o eye_n but_o he_o have_v not_o stop_v his_o ear_n he_o hear_v the_o shout_n and_o will_v see_v what_o be_v the_o matter_n he_o look_v about_o and_o see_v the_o wound_a man_n he_o then_o desire_v to_o see_v a_o little_a more_o thus_o say_v saint_n austin_n he_o grow_v at_o the_o last_o not_o to_o be_v the_o same_o man_n he_o be_v when_o he_o come_v thither_o but_o to_o be_v

only_o a_o companion_n of_o those_o that_o go_v thither_o but_o will_v be_v a_o guide_n to_o they_o yet_o he_o will_v go_v not_o tanquam_fw-la unus_fw-la ex_fw-la illis_fw-la he_o will_v be_v one_o of_o the_o forward_a and_o thus_o he_o continue_v a_o while_n till_o it_o please_v god_n by_o a_o mighty_a hand_n to_o deliver_v he_o from_o this_o vanity_n the_o eye_n be_v the_o window_n of_o the_o

those_o that_o will_v not_o embrace_v the_o love_n of_o the_o truth_n that_o they_o may_v be_v save_v say_v the_o apostle_n those_o man_n shall_v have_v strong_a delusion_n to_o believe_v lie_n i_o conclude_v all_o with_o what_o the_o apostle_n speak_v of_o the_o heathen_a say_v rom._n 1.25_o they_o know_v god_n the_o heathen_a have_v some_o knowledge_n of_o god_n but_o they_o be_v not_o careful_a to_o glorify_v he_o as_o god_n but_o be_v unthankful_a what_o punishment_n come_v upon_o they_o for_o it_o this_o their_o foolish_a heart_n grow_v full_a of_o darkness_n and_o when_o they_o profess_v themselves_o wise_a man_n they_o become_v fool_n fool_n why_o how_o do_v they_o play_v the_o fool_n say_v the_o apostle_n which_o be_v the_o very_a phrase_n that_o be_v here_o because_o when_o they_o know_v god_n they_o do_v not_o care_n to_o glorify_v he_o as_o god_n but_o be_v unthankful_a therefore_o god_n give_v they_o over_o to_o this_o blindness_n to_o turn_v the_o glory_n of_o the_o incorruptible_a god_n to_o the_o image_n of_o corruptible_a man_n and_o of_o fourfooted_a beast_n and_o they_o serve_v and_o worship_v the_o creature_n more_o than_o the_o creator_n that_o be_v

in_o my_o text_n that_o be_v the_o root_n of_o this_o sin_n whence_o this_o sin_n of_o they_o do_v spring_n it_o be_v from_o forgetfulness_n of_o god_n and_o of_o his_o work_n they_o forget_v god_n their_o saviour_n etc._n etc._n the_o word_n be_v many_o and_o many_o thing_n may_v be_v observe_v out_o of_o they_o i_o will_v run_v they_o first_o over_o with_o a_o brief_a paraphrase_n and_o then_o speak_v of_o that_o sin_n that_o be_v the_o cause_n of_o this_o idolatry_n the_o forgetfulness_n of_o god_n they_o forget_v god_n there_o be_v one_o of_o the_o tribe_n that_o be_v call_v the_o tribe_n of_o manasses_n manasses_n have_v this_o name_n of_o forgetfulness_n when_o i_o look_v over_o this_o psalm_n i_o think_v this_o people_n shall_v be_v all_o of_o that_o tribe_n they_o be_v so_o

soon_o forget_v his_o work_n they_o make_v haste_n and_o forget_v they_o as_o the_o word_n be_v and_o now_o here_o again_o they_o forget_v god_n their_o saviour_n three_o time_n the_o spirit_n of_o god_n in_o this_o scripture_n speak_v of_o their_o forgetfulness_n of_o god_n it_o be_v but_o three_o month_n ago_o since_o god_n bring_v they_o out_o of_o the_o land_n of_o egypt_n it_o be_v little_o more_o than_o one_o month_n '_o ago_o since_o god_n appear_v to_o they_o in_o a_o fearful_a manner_n upon_o mount_n sinai_n with_o thunder_n and_o lightning_n and_o earth_n quake_v and_o yet_o see_v they_o have_v already_o forget_v god_n god_n their_o saviour_n saviour_n the_o word_n be_v sometime_o take_v strict_o in_o the_o scripture_n in_o a_o narrow_a sense_n and_o sometime_o it_o be_v take_v in_o a_o large_a sense_n take_v it_o in_o the_o narrow_a sense_n and_o then_o a_o saviour_n be_v such_o a_o one_o as_o save_v from_o sin_n from_o the_o punishment_n of_o sin_n from_o god_n wrath_n from_o hell_n and_o eternal_a damnation_n thus_o our_o lord_n be_v call_v a_o saviour_n you_o know_v what_o the_o angel_n say_v to_o the_o shepherd_n this_o day_n be_v bear_v to_o you_o in_o the_o city_n of_o david_n a_o saviour_n which_o be_v christ_n the_o lord_n and_o his_o very_a name_n show_v he_o to_o be_v thus_o jesus_n it_o signify_v a_o saviour_n and_o the_o reason_n be_v give_v by_o the_o angel_n because_o he_o shall_v save_v the_o people_n from_o their_o sin_n he_o save_v they_o first_o from_o the_o guilt_n of_o sin_n then_o he_o save_v they_o from_o the_o punishment_n of_o sin_n then_o he_o save_v they_o from_o the_o power_n of_o sin_n thus_o the_o word_n saviour_n be_v take_v when_o you_o take_v it_o strict_o but_o you_o may_v take_v it_o more_o large_o and_o then_o a_o saviour_n be_v such_o a_o one_o as_o be_v a_o deliverer_n a_o preserver_n either_o from_o wrong_n from_o affliction_n from_o oppression_n from_o danger_n from_o temporal_a death_n a_o saviour_n that_o be_v as_o if_o he_o shall_v say_v a_o preserver_n in_o this_o sense_n the_o apostle_n say_v 1_o tim._n 1.10_o that_o god_n be_v the_o saviour_n of_o all_o man_n that_o be_v the_o preserver_n of_o all_o man_n but_o especial_o of_o they_o that_o believe_v in_o this_o sense_n take_v the_o word_n here_o god_n be_v their_o saviour_n that_o be_v their_o preserver_n and_o do_v but_o consider_v first_o the_o evil_n from_o which_o he_o preserve_v they_o and_o those_o be_v many_o then_o consider_v the_o mean_n whereby_o he_o preserve_v they_o and_o those_o be_v mighty_a then_o consider_v the_o

which_o the_o ill_a from_o which_o and_o the_o end_n to_o which_o they_o be_v save_v and_o then_o no_o people_n may_v more_o appropriate_a god_n to_o be_v their_o saviour_n than_o this_o people_n can_v yet_o behold_v they_o forget_v god_n their_o saviour_n yea_o and_o they_o forget_v his_o work_n the_o work_n of_o god_n be_v set_v down_o here_o to_o be_v of_o three_o sort_n great_a work_n wonderful_a work_n terrible_a work_n great_a work_n in_o egypt_n wondrous_a work_n in_o the_o land_n of_o ham_n the_o land_n of_o ham_n and_o egypt_n be_v all_o one_o then_o terrible_a work_n by_o
