A12366	The preachers proclamacion Discoursing the vanity of all earthly things, and proouing that there is no contentation to a Christian minde, but onely in the feare of God. Henry Smith.	Smith, Henry, 1550?-1591.	1591 (1591)	STC 22684; ESTC S113467	13,605	43

to_o this_o that_o he_o do_v see_v all_o thing_n vain_a upon_o which_o man_n set_v their_o heart_n he_o be_v move_v with_o compassion_n and_o can_v be_v silent_a no_o long_o but_o needs_o he_o must_v write_v to_o they_o which_o seek_v felicity_n as_o he_o do_v in_o transitorye_n thing_n to_o warn_v they_o that_o they_o seek_v not_o any_o long_o in_o these_o foolish_a thing_n which_o have_v no_o stability_n nor_o contentation_n but_o fly_v from_o they_o to_o the_o fear_n of_o god_n which_o have_v the_o promise_n of_o this_o life_n and_o the_o life_n to_o come_v therefore_o he_o begin_v with_o all_o be_v vanity_n as_o if_o he_o shall_v say_v love_v not_o the_o world_n nor_o the_o the_o thing_n of_o the_o world_n for_o i_o have_v try_v that_o there_o be_v no_o certainty_n nor_o

to_o be_v fear_v god_n &_o keep_v his_o commandment_n when_o he_o have_v go_v through_o a_o thousand_o vanity_n then_o that_o come_v in_o at_o the_o end_n even_o like_o our_o repentance_n which_o

we_o go_v a_o wrong_a way_n unto_o it_o therefore_o he_o sound_v a_o retire_n show_v that_o if_o we_o go_v on_o as_o we_o have_v begin_v we_o shall_v not_o find_v happiness_n but_o misery_n because_o

all_o turn_v to_o vanity_n this_o be_v no_o reproach_n to_o the_o thing_n but_o a_o shame_n to_o he_o which_o so_o abuse_v they_o that_o all_o thing_n shall_v be_v call_v vain_a for_o he_o what_o a_o

die_v once_o god_n say_v that_o all_o be_v good_a 1._o &_o now_o he_o say_v that_o all_o be_v naught_o and_o vain_a as_o though_o he_o forbid_v man_n that_o which_o he_o create_v for_o man_n that_o be_v not_o salomon_n meaning_n to_o debar_v man_n from_o the_o use_n of_o creature_n although_o all_o thing_n change_v with_o man_n &_o become_v worse_o than_o they_o be_v 8.20_o yet_o he_o do_v rather_o show_v that_o man_n reap_v nothing_o but_o vanity_n out_o of_o these_o thing_n by_o reason_n of_o his_o corruption_n then_o that_o the_o thing_n themselves_o be_v vain_a if_o they_o be_v

for_o the_o most_o part_n therefore_o solomon_n say_v that_o all_o thing_n be_v vain_a to_o we_o not_o of_o themselves_o but_o because_o they_o be_v not_o sanctify_v as_o they_o shall_v be_v therefore_o in_o the_o 2.24_o the_o 3._o 12_o 22._o the_o 5.17_o the_o 8.15_o he_o show_v a_o way_n how_o we_o may_v make_v profit_n of_o all_o and_o rejoice_v in_o our_o labour_n and_o find_v a_o lawful_a pleasure_n in_o earthly_a thing_n so_o often_o as_o he_o call_v to_o the_o use_n lest_o we_o shall_v err_v be_v the_o monk_n and_o eremites_n have_v do_v before_o mistake_v these_o word_n when_o he_o say_v that_o all_o be_v vanity_n they_o have_v forsake_v all_o company_n and_o government_n and_o office_n and_o trade_n and_o get_v themselves_o into_o the_o wilderness_n among_o beast_n to_o live_v in_o quiet_a and_o silence_n say_v that_o man_n can_v not_o live_v in_o the_o world_n and_o please_v god_n because_o all_o be_v vanity_n so_o while_o they_o count_v all_o thing_n vain_a they_o become_v vain_a themselves_o and_o leave_v those_o blessing_n which_o solomon_n enjoy_v after_o this_o knowledge_n more_o than_o he_o do_v before_o 9_o therefore_o it_o be_v vain_a man_n which_o solomon_n reprove_v which_o be_v not_o only_o call_v vanity_n but_o light_a than_o vanity_n if_o he_o do_v not_o use_v thing_n vain_o nothing_o shall_v be_v vain_a in_o the_o world_n whereas_o now_o by_o abuse_n we_o may_v see_v sometime_o as_o great_a vanity_n in_o the_o best_a thing_n as_o in_o the_o worst_a for_o be_v not_o many_o vain_a in_o their_o knowledge_n vain_a in_o their_o
