bound_n nor_o simple_o follow_v that_o which_o god_n have_v enjoin_v we_o without_o add_v of_o some_o trick_n of_o our_o own_o see_v then_o that_o we_o be_v so_o easy_o carry_v away_o we_o ought_v the_o rather_o to_o pray_v unto_o god_n that_o when_o we_o have_v a_o good_a case_n he_o himself_o will_n vouchsafe_v to_o guide_v we_o in_o all_o singleness_n by_o his_o holy_a spirit_n so_o as_o we_o may_v not_o pass_v the_o bound_n which_o he_o have_v set_v we_o by_o his_o word_n herewithal_o also_o we_o be_v put_v in_o mind_n not_o to_o apply_v god_n truth_n to_o any_o evil_a use_n for_o in_o so_o do_v we_o dishonour_v it_o like_v as_o these_o man_n do_v here_o who_o although_o they_o speak_v holy_o as_o we_o have_v show_v already_o and_o as_o we_o shall_v see_v more_o full_o hereafter_o be_v notwithstanding_o but_o traitor_n to_o god_n for_o they_o corrupt_v god_n truth_n and_o abuse_v it_o false_o apply_v that_o thing_n to_o a_o evil_a end_n which_o of_o itself_o be_v good_a and_o rightful_a so_o then_o whensoever_o god_n give_v we_o the_o knowledge_n of_o his_o word_n let_v we_o learn_v to_o receive_v it_o with_o such_o reverence_n as_o our_o receive_n of_o it_o may_v not_o be_v to_o deface_v good_a thing_n nor_o to_o set_v a_o colour_n upon_o evil_n thing_n as_o oftentimes_o those_o that_o be_v most_o sharpwitted_a and_o cunning_a do_v overshoot_v themselves_o and_o abuse_v the_o knowledge_n that_o god_n have_v give_v they_o unto_o deceit_n and_o naughtiness_n turn_v all_o thing_n topsy-turvy_o in_o such_o wise_a as_o they_o do_v nothing_o but_o snarl_v themselves_o consider_v therefore_o how_o all_o man_n be_v give_v to_o such_o infirmity_n it_o stand_v we_o so_o much_o the_o more_o on_o hand_n to_o pray_v god_n to_o give_v we_o the_o grace_n to_o apply_v his_o word_n to_o such_o use_n as_o he_o have_v ordain_v it_o that_o be_v to_o wit_n to_o pureness_n and_o simplicity_n and_o thus_o you_o see_v what_o we_o ought_v to_o consider_v in_o effect_n but_o now_o that_o we_o understand_v what_o be_v in_o this_o book_n we_o must_v lay_v forth_o these_o matter_n more_o at_o length_n in_o such_o sort_n as_o the_o thing_n that_o we_o have_v but_o light_o touch_v may_v be_v lay_v forth_o at_o large_a according_a to_o the_o process_n of_o the_o history_n it_o be_v say_v that_o there_o be_v a_o man_n in_o the_o land_n of_o hus_n name_v job_n a_o sound_n and_o upright_o man_n and_o fear_v god_n and_o withdraw_a himself_o from_o evil_a we_o know_v not_o neither_o can_v we_o guess_v in_o what_o time_n job_n live_v save_v that_o a_o man_n may_v perceive_v he_o be_v of_o great_a antiquity_n howbeit_o that_o some_o of_o the_o jew_n have_v be_v of_o opinion_n that_o moses_n be_v the_o author_n of_o this_o book_n and_o that_o he_o do_v set_v it_o as_o a_o look_v glass_n before_o the_o people_n to_o the_o intent_n that_o the_o child_n of_o abraham_n of_o who_o race_n he_o himself_o come_v may_v know_v that_o god_n have_v show_v favour_n to_o other_o that_o be_v not_o of_o the_o same_o line_n and_o thereupon_o be_v ashamed_a if_o they_o themselves_o walk_v not_o pure_o in_o the_o fear_n of_o god_n see_v that_o this_o man_n which_o have_v not_o the_o mark_n of_o god_n covenant_n nor_o be_v circumcise_v but_o be_v a_o panim_fw-la have_v behave_v himself_o so_o well_o but_o forasmuch_o as_o this_o be_v not_o certain_a we_o must_v leave_v it_o in_o suspense_n nevertheless_o let_v we_o take_v that_o which_o be_v out_o of_o all_o doubt_n that_o be_v to_o wit_n that_o the_o holy_a ghost_n have_v indict_v this_o book_n to_o the_o end_n that_o the_o jew_n shall_v know_v how_o god_n have_v have_v people_n too_o serve_v he_o albeit_o that_o they_o have_v not_o be_v separate_v out_o from_o the_o rest_n of_o the_o world_n and_o that_o although_o they_o have_v not_o the_o sign_n of_o circumcision_n yet_o notwithstanding_o they_o walk_v in_o all_o pureness_n of_o conversation_n by_o the_o knowledge_n whereof_o the_o jew_n have_v have_v occasion_n to_o be_v so_o much_o the_o more_o diligent_a to_o keep_v the_o law_n of_o god_n and_o sith_o he_o have_v vouchsafe_v they_o such_o favour_n and_o prerogative_n as_o to_o gather_v they_o out_o from_o among_o all_o other_o strange_a nation_n they_o ought_v to_o dedicate_v themselves_o whole_o unto_o he_o also_o a_o man_n may_v perceive_v by_o the_o book_n of_o ezechiel_n that_o the_o name_n of_o job_n be_v renown_a among_o the_o people_n of_o israel_n for_o in_o his_o xiiij_o chap._n we_o see_v it_o be_v say_v that_o if_o no_o job_n &_o daniel_n be_v among_o the_o people_n that_o shall_v perish_v they_o shall_v save_v no_o more_o man_n live_v but_o their_o own_o &_o all_o the_o rest_n of_o the_o people_n shall_v be_v destroy_v see_v how_o the_o prophet_n speak_v of_o these_o three_o man_n as_o of_o such_o as_o be_v know_v and_o renown_a among_o the_o jew_n as_o i_o have_v touch_v already_o and_o thereby_o we_o see_v what_o the_o intent_n of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n be_v namely_o that_o the_o jew_n shall_v have_v a_o mirror_n and_o pattern_n whereby_o to_o know_v how_o they_o ought_v to_o keep_v the_o doctrine_n of_o salvation_n that_o be_v give_v unto_o they_o see_v that_o this_o man_n which_o be_v of_o a_o strange_a nation_n have_v so_o keep_v himself_o in_o such_o purity_n and_o that_o be_v the_o chief_a thing_n that_o we_o have_v to_o remember_v concern_v the_o name_n that_o be_v set_v down_o here_o when_o he_o say_v that_o he_o be_v of_o the_o land_n of_o hus._n true_a it_o be_v that_o some_o man_n do_v place_n this_o land_n far_o eastward_o nevertheless_o in_o the_o four_o chapter_n of_o the_o lamentation_n of_o jeremy_n the_o same_o word_n hus_n be_v put_v for_o a_o part_n of_o edom._n we_o know_v that_o the_o edomite_n be_v descend_v of_o esau_n and_o true_a it_o be_v that_o they_o also_o have_v circumcision_n howbeit_o forasmuch_o as_o they_o be_v stray_v away_o from_o god_n church_n they_o have_v it_o no_o more_o as_o the_o sign_n of_o his_o covenant_n therefore_o if_o we_o take_v job_n to_o have_v be_v of_o this_o land_n of_o hus_n then_o be_v he_o a_o edomite_n that_o be_v to_o say_v of_o the_o line_n of_o esau_n and_o we_o know_v how_o the_o prophet_n say_v that_o although_o esau_n and_o jacob_n be_v natural_a brethren_n bear_v both_o at_o one_o burden_n yet_o god_n of_o his_o mere_a goodness_n choze_fw-mi jacob_n reject_v esau_n and_o curse_v he_o with_o all_o his_o whole_a lineage_n lo_o how_o the_o prophet_n in_o speak_v to_o magnify_v god_n mercy_n towards_o the_o jew_n tell_v they_o that_o he_o choose_v they_o not_o for_o any_o worthiness_n that_o be_v in_o their_o person_n consider_v that_o he_o have_v reject_v jacob_n elder_a brother_n to_o who_o the_o birthrith_n belong_v and_o have_v choose_v he_o that_o be_v the_o young_a &_o inferior_a so_o then_o although_o that_o this_o man_n be_v bear_v of_o esau_n line_n yet_o notwithstanding_o we_o see_v how_o sound_o he_o live_v &_o how_o he_o serve_v god_n not_o only_o by_o upright_a conversation_n &_o equity_n among_o man_n but_o also_o in_o pure_a religion_n which_o he_o defile_v not_o with_o the_o idolatry_n and_o superstition_n of_o the_o infidel_n as_o touch_v the_o name_n of_o job_n some_o interpret_v it_o to_o signify_v weep_v or_o wail_v and_o other_o some_o take_v it_o for_o a_o utter_a enemy_n not_o such_o a_o one_o as_o he_o hate_v but_o such_o a_o one_o as_o be_v as_o it_o be_v a_o white_a for_o man_n to_o shoot_v at_o there_o be_v no_o cause_n why_o we_o shall_v doubt_v whether_o this_o man_n who_o country_n be_v so_o mark_v out_o &_o who_o name_n be_v express_v be_v or_o no_o or_o live_v or_o no_o or_o whether_o the_o thing_n that_o be_v write_v here_o do_v come_v to_o pass_v or_o no_o so_o as_o we_o shall_v think_v it_o to_o be_v but_o a_o tale_n contrive_v as_o if_o a_o man_n shall_v under_o a_o counterfeit_n name_n set_v out_o some_o thing_n unto_o we_o that_o be_v never_o do_v for_o i_o have_v already_o allege_v the_o record_n of_o ezechiell_n and_o also_o of_o saint_n james_n who_o show_v right_o well_o that_o there_o be_v a_o job_n in_o deed_n and_o further_o see_v that_o the_o story_n itself_o declare_v it_o we_o can_v not_o in_o any_o wise_a deface_v the_o thing_n which_o the_o holy_a ghost_n mean_v to_o utter_v so_o precise_o as_o for_o the_o residue_n we_o have_v too_o mark_n that_o in_o that_o time_n although_o the_o world_n be_v fall_v away_o from_o the_o true_a serve_v of_o god_n and_o from_o pure_a religion_n yet_o notwithstanding_o there_o be_v still_o far_o more_o soundness_n by_o a_o great_a deal_n than_o there_o be_v at_o this_o day_n special_o in_o the_o papacy_n
service_n as_o it_o will_v befall_v we_o if_o he_o hold_v we_o not_o back_o and_o herewithal_o we_o be_v also_o warn_v that_o the_o serve_v of_o god_n in_o outward_a show_n and_o the_o set_n of_o a_o fair_a face_n upon_o it_o be_v not_o all_o that_o be_v to_o be_v do_v but_o that_o the_o chief_a point_n be_v to_o serve_v he_o in_o deed_n by_o know_v what_o a_o one_o he_o be_v and_o what_o his_o will_n be_v to_o the_o end_n to_o hold_v ourselves_o thereunto_o for_o there_o have_v be_v great_a pomp_n in_o the_o sacrifice_n of_o the_o paynim_n yea_o and_o even_o of_o they_o that_o have_v serve_v god_n aright_o and_o yet_o notwithstanding_o the_o one_o sort_n have_v be_v reject_v and_o god_n have_v abhor_v they_o &_o the_o other_o sort_n have_v be_v acceptable_a unto_o he_o the_o heathen_a man_n make_v their_o sacrifice_n with_o great_a pomp_n they_o have_v incense_v &_o perfume_n &_o such_o other_o like_o thing_n and_o the_o jew_n special_o in_o the_o law_n do_v asmuch_o but_o how_o as_o for_o the_o paynim_n which_o mean_v to_o honour_n god_n without_o know_v he_o for_o asmuch_o as_o they_o know_v not_o any_o whit_n of_o god_n or_o of_o his_o majesty_n needs_o must_v they_o do_v sacrifyze_v unto_o the_o idol_n which_o they_o have_v forge_v and_o set_v up_o in_o their_o own_o brain_n god_n they_o accept_v not_o any_o other_o service_n than_o that_o which_o be_v do_v unto_o he_o by_o one_o that_o know_v he_o thus_o much_o for_o the_o first_o point_n and_o for_o the_o second_o it_o behove_v that_o the_o serve_v of_o god_n be_v spiritual_a the_o pagan_n have_v surmise_v that_o god_n will_v be_v appease_v if_o a_o man_n offer_v he_o a_o ox_n or_o a_o calf_n but_o that_o be_v a_o great_a mockery_n as_o who_o will_v say_v that_o god_n be_v transfigure_v and_o that_o when_o he_o be_v angry_a with_o man_n they_o can_v appease_v he_o by_o the_o mean_a aforesaid_a therefore_o it_o behove_v man_n to_o set_v down_o this_o rule_n first_o of_o all_o namely_o that_o the_o serve_v of_o god_n be_v spiritual_a we_o must_v mount_n far_o high_a than_o these_o visible_a shape_n for_o they_o must_v lead_v we_o to_o a_o heavenly_a end_n and_o not_o hold_v we_o down_o here_o in_o the_o world_n without_o lift_v up_o of_o our_o mind_n unto_o heaven_n you_o see_v then_o how_o the_o faithful_a have_v always_o their_o eye_n upon_o god_n when_o they_o make_v sacrifice_v and_o thereby_o be_v put_v in_o mind_n of_o their_o vice_n and_o sin_n to_o the_o end_n to_o be_v displease_v with_o themselves_o for_o the_o same_o the_o paynim_n know_v no_o whit_n of_o this_o now_o than_o we_o perceive_v that_o we_o may_v not_o rest_v upon_o the_o outward_a show_n when_o we_o deal_v with_o the_o serve_v of_o god_n but_o we_o must_v come_v to_o the_o well_o head_n that_o be_v to_o wit_n we_o must_v know_v which_o be_v the_o god_n who_o we_o shall_v worship_v and_o we_o must_v understand_v how_o and_o in_o what_o wise_a it_o become_v we_o to_o press_v unto_o he_o and_o that_o the_o ceremony_n which_o we_o use_v do_v lead_v we_o to_o this_o spiritual_a service_n whereof_o mention_n be_v make_v here_o as_o for_o example_n in_o these_o day_n the_o papist_n have_v many_o ceremony_n like_v unto_o we_o for_o they_o can_v well_o bow_v down_o their_o knee_n when_o they_o purpose_v to_o pray_v and_o they_o have_v such_o other_o thing_n and_o yet_o for_o all_o that_o we_o see_v they_o know_v not_o whereunto_o they_o shape_v themselves_o for_o as_o much_o as_o they_o go_v to_o kneel_v down_o before_o a_o puppet_n of_o wood_n or_o stone_n whereby_o they_o show_v how_o they_o know_v not_o what_o god_n be_v and_o so_o it_o must_v needs_o be_v that_o all_o the_o religion_n which_o they_o think_v themselves_o to_o have_v be_v unclean_a &_o unholy_a they_o have_v store_n of_o apish_a toy_n but_o they_o turn_v all_o upside_o down_o because_o they_o regard_v not_o what_o god_n have_v command_v but_o rather_o follow_v their_o own_o invention_n bear_v themselves_o in_o hand_n that_o they_o have_v do_v much_o when_o they_o have_v patch_v a_o great_a sort_n of_o rag_n together_o but_o they_o labour_v in_o vain_a for_o asmuch_o as_o they_o hold_v not_o themselves_o under_o the_o rule_n of_o god_n word_n behold_v wherein_o we_o differ_v from_o they_o which_o know_v not_o how_o there_o be_v but_o one_o god_n who_o we_o ought_v to_o worship_n and_o unto_o who_o we_o must_v come_v by_o mean_n of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n and_o that_o it_o behove_v we_o to_o serve_v he_o according_a to_o his_o word_n when_o we_o know_v this_o we_o may_v well_o say_v that_o the_o sacrifice_n which_o we_o offer_v unto_o god_n be_v acceptable_a unto_o he_o and_o that_o he_o take_v they_o in_o good_a worth_n but_o we_o observe_v also_o that_o many_o man_n abuse_v even_o the_o say_a manner_n of_o worship_a god_n which_o be_v good_a and_o holy_a in_o asmuch_o as_o they_o do_v it_o after_o a_o beastly_a manner_n how_o be_v that_o true_a it_o be_v that_o we_o have_v not_o any_o idol_n in_o it_o true_a it_o be_v that_o we_o have_v none_o of_o all_o the_o fine_a mask_a knack_n that_o be_v in_o the_o papacy_n wherewith_o the_o service_n of_o god_n be_v infect_v and_o mar_v but_o yet_o there_o be_v which_o think_v they_o have_v well_o quit_v themselves_o when_o they_o have_v do_v some_o ceremony_n as_o when_o they_o have_v put_v of_o their_o cap_n or_o make_v curtsy_n behold_v how_o they_o discharge_v themselves_o afore_o god_n for_o so_o they_o bear_v themselves_o in_o hand_n and_o yet_o in_o the_o mean_a while_n regard_v not_o the_o lowliness_n that_o i_o have_v speak_v of_o namely_o that_o when_o we_o press_v unto_o god_n it_o become_v we_o to_o acknowledge_v ourselves_o guilty_a before_o he_o by_o reason_n of_o our_o sin_n they_o regard_v not_o the_o mean_a of_o seek_v favour_n in_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n they_o regard_v not_o the_o yield_a of_o themselves_o unto_o god_n in_o all_o pureness_n so_o as_o they_o may_v be_v holy_a unto_o himward_n they_o pass_v not_o a_o whit_n for_o all_o this_o gear_n they_o have_v good_a store_n of_o outward_a ceremony_n yea_o very_o but_o as_o i_o have_v say_v all_o this_o be_v nothing_o now_o then_o let_v we_o learn_v to_o serve_v god_n in_o spirit_n and_o truth_n &_o faith_n will_v be_v a_o good_a guide_n thereunto_o when_o we_o have_v our_o eye_n fasten_v upon_o god_n word_n which_o will_v lead_v we_o always_o to_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n who_o be_v the_o heavenly_a pattern_n &_o the_o mirror_n wherein_o we_o must_v behold_v the_o will_n of_o god_n his_o father_n to_o frame_v ourselves_o thereafter_o thus_o much_o concern_v the_o sacrifice_v whereof_o mention_n be_v make_v in_o this_o place_n now_o when_o it_o be_v say_v that_o job_n offer_v sacrifice_n according_a to_o the_o number_n of_o his_o child_n it_o be_v to_o show_v that_o he_o spare_v not_o his_o substance_n which_o god_n have_v endue_v he_o withal_o if_o he_o have_v be_v a_o poor_a man_n he_o have_v be_v never_o a_o whit_n less_o welcome_a unto_o god_n though_o he_o have_v bring_v no_o sacrifice_n at_o all_o but_o in_o asmuch_o as_o he_o have_v the_o mean_a and_o ability_n wherewith_o to_o do_v it_o it_o be_v say_v that_o he_o employ_v it_o thereabout_o and_o now_o let_v we_o apply_v the_o same_o to_o ourselves_o i_o have_v tell_v you_o already_o that_o we_o have_v not_o any_o more_o the_o sacrifice_v which_o be_v before_o the_o come_n of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n but_o when_o the_o case_n concern_v pray_v unto_o god_n according_a as_o the_o principal_a service_n which_o he_o demand_v at_o our_o hand_n be_v that_o we_o shall_v call_v upon_o he_o that_o we_o shall_v profess_v he_o that_o our_o whole_a welfare_n shall_v depend_v upon_o he_o that_o we_o shall_v give_v he_o thanks_n for_o his_o benefit_n and_o that_o we_o shall_v enforce_v ourselves_o to_o be_v holy_a both_o in_o body_n &_o soul_n even_o so_o to_o the_o end_n that_o all_o the_o whole_a may_v be_v consecrate_v to_o his_o honour_n we_o must_v also_o serve_v our_o neighbour_n turn_n with_o the_o thing_n that_o he_o have_v give_v we_o assure_v ourselves_o that_o our_o be_v in_o this_o world_n be_v to_o the_o end_n that_o we_o shall_v be_v partaker_n one_o with_o another_o in_o such_o wise_a as_o no_o man_n ought_v to_o be_v give_v to_o himself_o but_o all_o of_o we_o ought_v to_o profit_v the_o member_n wherewith_o god_n have_v knit_v and_o unite_v we_o together_o see_v it_o be_v so_o let_v every_o man_n have_v a_o eye_n to_o himself_o true_a it_o be_v that_o to_o pray_v unto_o god_n be_v a_o thing_n common_a to_o all_o man_n nevertheless_o it_o behove_v each_o

that_o he_o can_v not_o justify_v himself_o for_o his_o sin_n be_v manifest_a and_o he_o be_v convince_v of_o it_o but_o he_o accuse_v god_n of_o cruelty_n or_o overgreat_a rigour_n my_o punishment_n

he_o be_v in_o great_a distress_n because_o the_o affliction_n which_o he_o endure_v be_v exceed_v great_a and_o much_o more_o heavy_a as_o if_o he_o shall_v say_v he_o can_v not_o lament_v enough_o see_v that_o god_n handle_v he_o so_o rough_o but_o we_o have_v see_v how_o he_o have_v come_v already_o even_o to_o the_o curse_v of_o his_o byrthday_n and_o how_o he_o will_v that_o he_o have_v be_v

you_o already_o although_o he_o have_v a_o good_a case_n yet_o do_v he_o handle_v it_o amiss_o and_o it_o behove_v man_n to_o know_v how_o there_o be_v some_o faultiness_n in_o this_o respect_n nevertheless_o he_o cease_v not_o too_o speak_v truth_n when_o he_o say_v that_o the_o misery_n which_o he_o endure_v be_v so_o great_a and_o so_o extreme_a as_o even_o his_o word_n be_v swallow_v up_o in_o so_o much_o as_o in_o that_o behalf_n he_o be_v as_o a_o man_n overwhelm_v which_o have_v no_o liveliness_n in_o he_o so_o that_o all_o that_o ever_o he_o be_v able_a too_o say_v be_v nothing_o in_o comparison_n of_o the_o affliction_n wherewith_o god_n press_v he_o let_v we_o mark_v therefore_o that_o we_o have_v here_o two_o thing_n the_o one_o be_v that_o we_o see_v what_o a_o poor_a silly_a creature_n be_v when_o god_n press_v he_o with_o his_o judgement_n as_o i_o have_v say_v already_o and_o the_o other_o be_v that_o we_o shall_v know_v that_o in_o fight_v against_o our_o temptation_n although_o we_o do_v the_o best_a we_o can_v too_o withstand_v they_o and_o too_o submit_v ourselves_o unto_o god_n yet_o notwithstanding_o we_o sway_v aside_o either_o one_o way_n or_o other_o through_o infirmity_n so_o as_o there_o be_v never_o sufficient_a strength_n in_o we_o except_o god_n hold_v we_o up_o and_o suffer_v we_o not_o to_o bow_v at_o all_o and_o why_o so_o it_o be_v expedient_a for_o we_o to_o know_v that_o we_o be_v not_o make_v of_o steel_n nor_o that_o we_o be_v not_o as_o rock_n of_o stone_n but_o that_o we_o be_v mortal_a man_n full_a of_o frailty_n it_o be_v behooveful_a that_o god_n shall_v make_v we_o feel_v this_o also_o although_o he_o assist_v we_o in_o our_o affliction_n so_o as_o we_o be_v not_o overcome_v yet_o do_v he_o make_v we_o to_o be_v wound_v and_o to_o halt_n that_o be_v to_o say_v he_o leave_v always_o some_o feebleness_n in_v we_o which_o show_v itself_o in_o the_o mighty_a operation_n which_o he_o give_v we_o thus_o you_o see_v the_o two_o point_n which_o we_o have_v to_o consider_v here_o but_o first_o of_o all_o let_v we_o call_v to_o remembrance_n that_o which_o i_o have_v touch_v heretofore_o which_o be_v that_o if_o we_o be_v tempt_v and_o whensoever_o we_o be_v pinch_v with_o any_o adversity_n in_o our_o body_n we_o must_v the_o more_o fear_n still_o this_o spiritual_a temptation_n when_o god_n cite_v we_o to_o his_o
bend_v to_o continue_v in_o the_o false_a opinion_n that_o we_o have_v conceive_v except_o we_o will_v fall_v into_o the_o bottomless_a pit_n whereoutof_o there_o be_v no_o escape_v for_o such_o as_o be_v so_o blear_v and_o can_v abide_v that_o god_n shall_v enlighten_v they_o for_o such_o manner_n of_o man_n must_v needs_o come_v to_o the_o top_n of_o all_o confusion_n then_o let_v we_o bethink_v we_o to_o turn_v head_n assoon_o as_o we_o shall_v have_v know_v our_o fault_n for_o when_o god_n show_v we_o the_o favour_n to_o give_v we_o warning_n if_o we_o give_v care_n to_o he_o to_o hear_v what_o he_o say_v he_o will_v not_o suffer_v we_o to_o be_v lead_v astray_o by_o evil_a continual_o but_o he_o will_v bring_v we_o back_o again_o into_o the_o good_a way_n herewithal_o it_o be_v

enough_o for_o we_o to_o come_v to_o it_o ceremonious_o to_o say_v it_o be_v true_a there_o be_v a_o fault_n â–ª_o according_a as_o we_o see_v that_o they_o which_o have_v foul_o offend_v god_n and_o which_o have_v be_v the_o cause_n of_o some_o such_o unrecoverable_a inconvenience_n the_o sore_a whereof_o require_v let_v of_o blood_n insomuch_o that_o there_o have_v follow_v some_o stumble_a and_o confusion_n in_o the_o church_n â–ª_o even_o they_o which_o have_v be_v guilty_a of_o such_o a_o traitorous_a shall_v do_v no_o more_o but_o come_v and_o say_v it_o be_v true_a i_o have_v do_v amiss_o all_o this_o be_v nothing_o else_o but_o a_o mockery_n it_o be_v well_o see_v with_o what_o zeal_n and_o with_o what_o affection_n they_o proceed_v in_o that_o behalf_n namely_o that_o they_o be_v not_o mind_v to_o return_v unto_o god_n very_o not_o to_o return_v in_o such_o sort_n as_o it_o may_v be_v know_v that_o they_o repent_v they_o and_o this_o be_v it_o that_o job_n mean_v too_o

to_o mark_v here_o be_v that_o when_o god_n shall_v have_v discover_v our_o iniquity_n that_o we_o have_v conceive_v some_o wicked_a imagination_n that_o have_v turn_v we_o away_o from_o the_o good_a in_o the_o end_n it_o behove_v we_o to_o acknowledge_v our_o fault_n that_o we_o may_v return_v unto_o god_n as_o how_o i_o say_v that_o by_o apply_v this_o to_o our_o own_o instruction_n we_o shall_v have_v the_o easy_a understanding_n of_o it_o some_o man_n be_v to_o be_v find_v who_o for_o a_o time_n shall_v be_v estrange_v from_o god_n truth_n and_o from_o the_o right_a way_n and_o why_o so_o for_o they_o have_v some_o scrupulousness_n or_o some_o evil_a opinion_n according_a as_o the_o devil_n be_v never_o without_o this_o slight_n to_o trump_n one_o thing_n or_o other_o in_o our_o way_n to_o the_o end_n that_o god_n word_n may_v have_v no_o more_o savour_n in_o our_o taste_n and_o special_o that_o we_o may_v be_v weary_a of_o it_o and_o very_o when_o such_o manner_n of_o folk_n return_n there_o shall_v be_v no_o more_o iniquity_n that_o be_v to_o say_v god_n be_v merciful_a to_o they_o so_o as_o he_o give_v they_o the_o grace_n to_o be_v no_o more_o glut_v and_o weary_a of_o his_o word_n as_o they_o be_v before_o you_o see_v then_o after_o what_o sort_n iniquity_n cess_v when_o man_n return_v nevertheless_o when_o they_o be_v enter_v into_o the_o good_a way_n it_o

we_o must_v also_o practice_v it_o each_o one_o of_o we_o in_o himself_o and_o wherefore_o for_o when_o god_n send_v we_o many_o great_a trouble_n and_o by_o and_o by_o we_o conceive_v that_o which_o

that_o the_o man_n be_v happy_a who_o god_n chastize_v that_o be_v to_o wit_n by_o consider_v what_o our_o nature_n be_v namely_o how_o it_o be_v stubborn_a how_o it_o be_v hard_o to_o be_v frame_v

but_o it_o be_v not_o for_o nought_o that_o our_o lord_n promise_v his_o faithful_a one_o the_o spirit_n of_o discretion_n it_o be_v to_o the_o intent_n they_o shall_v not_o be_v lead_v here_o and_o

so_o be_v we_o desirous_a too_o profit_n well_o in_o the_o gospel_n and_o in_o the_o school_n of_o god_n then_o let_v we_o learn_v not_o only_o too_o take_v and_o too_o follow_v that_o which_o be_v

as_o to_o know_v what_o be_v in_o he_o but_o yet_o nevertheless_o we_o must_v be_v full_o persuade_v in_o ourselves_o that_o it_o be_v the_o property_n and_o nature_n of_o god_n to_o do_v all_o

and_o incomprehensible_a judgement_n and_o gather_v our_o wit_n too_o we_o in_o all_o humbleness_n too_o say_v behold_v it_o be_v true_a that_o as_o now_o this_o seem_v to_o we_o to_o be_v able_a to_o

but_o in_o part_n yea_o even_o as_o it_o be_v in_o a_o glass_n and_o dark_o let_v we_o wait_v for_o the_o day_n wherein_o we_o shall_v see_v god_n glory_n face_n to_o face_n and_o then_o shall_v we_o comprehend_v the_o thing_n that_o be_v hide_v from_o we_o as_o now_o you_o see_v then_o after_o what_o manner_n it_o be_v god_n will_v to_o exercise_v our_o faith_n that_o be_v to_o wit_n he_o will_v have_v we_o too_o confess_v his_o righteousness_n too_o be_v such_o as_o no_o man_n wit_n may_v find_v fault_n with_o it_o or_o carp_n against_o it_o i_o say_v he_o will_v have_v we_o too_o confess_v this_o although_o we_o perceive_v it_o not_o nor_o have_v any_o full_a knowledge_n of_o it_o and_o although_o every_o man_n have_v his_o reason_n to_o dispute_v with_o god_n why_o he_o do_v so_o albeit_o then_o that_o we_o see_v not_o the_o thing_n with_o our_o eye_n yet_o must_v we_o have_v the_o humbleness_n to_o yield_v unto_o god_n that_o which_o belong_v unto_o he_o and_o if_o we_o do_v otherwise_o it_o be_v all_o one_o as_o if_o we_o will_v so_o far_o as_o in_o we_o lie_v bring_v his_o everlasting_a be_v utter_o to_o nought_o but_o if_o we_o have_v this_o well_o print_v in_o our_o

be_v yet_o notwithstanding_o we_o shall_v be_v patient_a in_o our_o adversity_n why_o so_o for_o he_o that_o fret_v at_o his_o adversity_n must_v needs_o be_v make_v to_o know_v what_o it_o be_v to_o

punish_v whoredom_n it_o be_v too_o the_o end_n that_o we_o shall_v walk_v in_o all_o cleanliness_n both_o of_o body_n and_o soul_n thus_o you_o see_v then_o how_o it_o be_v god_n will_v that_o man_n shall_v behold_v and_o consider_v his_o judgement_n special_o when_o they_o be_v manifest_a a_o man_n may_v well_o say_v sometime_o that_o god_n be_v righteous_a and_o why_o for_o he_o have_v punish_v such_o a_o one_o yea_o even_o because_o he_o be_v a_o man_n of_o a_o wicked_a and_o dissolute_a life_n he_o have_v execute_v his_o vengeance_n upon_o such_o a_o country_n and_o why_o for_o it_o be_v full_a of_o all_o filthiness_n and_o uncleanness_n we_o may_v well_o speak_v after_o this_o manner_n and_o so_o ought_v we_o to_o do_v how_o be_v it_o not_o always_o for_o as_o i_o have_v say_v already_o he_o hold_v not_o on_o all_o by_o one_o rule_n what_o be_v to_o be_v do_v then_o we_o must_v come_v up_o high_o and_o say_v that_o god_n be_v always_o righteous_a how_o so_o ever_o he_o

why_o for_o handle_v every_o man_n according_a to_o their_o desert_n as_o i_o touch_v afore_o and_o too_o bring_v this_o too_o pass_v they_o be_v fain_o to_o grant_v i_o a_o free_a will_n and_o god_n election_n must_v be_v overthrow_v and_o bring_v too_o naught_o for_o to_o say_v that_o god_n choose_v who_o he_o list_v and_o call_v they_o to_o salvation_n through_o his_o own_o free_a goodness_n and_o that_o he_o forsake_v the_o residue_n they_o think_v it_o very_o strange_a to_o be_v speak_v because_o they_o can_v not_o comprehend_v the_o reason_n of_o it_o and_o here_o you_o see_v why_o these_o rogue_n that_o counterfeit_v to_o be_v great_a clerk_n overturn_v the_o foundation_n of_o our_o faith_n to_o prove_v god_n righteousness_n even_o after_o their_o own_o fancy_n and_o why_o be_v that_o by_o cause_n they_o can_v not_o mount_v so_o high_a as_o too_o know_v that_o god_n be_v righteous_a in_o comparison_n of_o man_n whatsoever_o they_o be_v true_a it_o be_v that_o it_o stand_v we_o in_o hand_n to_o beware_v of_o another_o extremity_n which_o be_v faulty_a for_o we_o shall_v see_v some_o of_o as_o slanderous_a conversation_n as_o may_v be_v who_o if_o they_o perceive_v their_o lewdness_n to_o be_v discover_v fall_v by_o and_o by_o to_o say_n as_o for_o i_o i_o be_o a_o honest_a man_n yea_o to_o the_o worldward_n i_o confess_v every_o man_n be_v a_o sinner_n to_o godward_n and_o so_o will_v he_o shroud_v himself_o under_o the_o common_a cloak_n look_v upon_o a_o whorehunter_n that_o have_v haunt_v the_o stew_n half_a a_o score_n year_n look_v upon_o a_o

unconscionable_a person_n that_o seek_v nought_o else_o but_o to_o be_v catch_v without_o faithfulness_n or_o honest_a deal_n and_o such_o dog_n will_v say_v it_o be_v true_a that_o they_o be_v sinner_n before_o god_n for_o no_o man_n be_v righteous_a they_o go_v no_o further_o with_o their_o fault_n but_o so_o which_o be_v so_o hideous_a as_o may_v be_v but_o shroud_v themselves_o under_o the_o cloak_n of_o natural_a infirmity_n say_v that_o there_o be_v no_o man_n that_o can_v be_v equal_a with_o god_n they_o think_v they_o have_v do_v very_o much_o in_o yield_v such_o a_o confession_n but_o i_o have_v show_v already_o that_o it_o behoove_v we_o to_o have_v both_o these_o two_o point_n the_o one_o be_v that_o we_o must_v acknowledge_v god_n to_o be_v righteous_a in_o respect_n of_o the_o whole_a world_n and_o that_o man_n must_v not_o plead_v nor_o dispute_v with_o he_o whosoever_o they_o be_v or_o what_o so_o ever_o they_o be_v able_a to_o allege_v but_o must_v be_v abash_v both_o great_a and_o small_a lo_o here_o one_o special_a point_n the_o other_o be_v that_o each_o man_n shall_v have_v a_o eye_n particular_o to_o himself_o and_o that_o every_o man_n shall_v be_v sorry_a for_o his_o fault_n and_o abhor_v they_o and_o condemn_v they_o and_o that_o hereupon_o we_o shall_v also_o consider_v the_o vengeance_n and_o punishment_n which_o god_n send_v upon_o sin_n to_o the_o end_n we_o shall_v learn_v to_o fare_v the_o better_a thereby_o if_o we_o be_v beat_v with_o his_o rod_n let_v every_o of_o we_o say_v it_o be_v good_a right_n i_o have_v well_o deserve_v it_o if_o god_n teach_v we_o at_o other_o man_n cost_n so_o as_o he_o chastize_v other_o man_n before_o our_o eye_n let_v the_o same_o touch_v we_o and_o let_v we_o apply_v such_o example_n to_o our_o own_o instruction_n to_o the_o intent_n to_o prevent_v the_o matter_n that_o god_n be_v not_o compel_v to_o fall_v upon_o we_o because_o we_o have_v not_o profit_v by_o the_o chastisement_n which_o he_o have_v show_v we_o in_o the_o person_n of_o other_o thus_o you_o see_v the_o two_o point_n which_o we_o have_v to_o mark_v and_o to_o put_v in_o ure_n now_o let_v we_o come_v to_o the_o lay_v forth_o of_o that_o which_o be_v say_v here_o by_o job._n i_o know_v for_o a_o truth_n say_v he_o that_o man_n shall_v not_o be_v justify_v with_o god._n so_o it_o be_v set_v down_o but_o this_o word_n with_o import_v as_o much_o as_o to_o godward_o and_o it_o be_v a_o doctrine_n of_o great_a weight_n if_o a_o man_n know_v it_o well_o what_o be_v the_o cause_n that_o man_n justify_v themselves_o so_o bold_o that_o be_v to_o say_v that_o they_o presume_v so_o much_o of_o themselves_o that_o they_o set_v so_o much_o store_n by_o themselves_o and_o that_o they_o be_v so_o full_a of_o pride_n what_o else_o be_v the_o cause_n of_o it_o but_o only_o their_o stay_n here_o below_o that_o every_o man_n compare_v himself_o with_o his_o neighbour_n you_o see_v then_o whereunto_o we_o run_v and_o you_o see_v also_o why_o saint_n paul_n send_v we_o to_o the_o great_a judge_n say_v that_o every_o man_n shall_v bear_v his_o own_o burden_n as_o if_o he_o have_v say_v my_o friend_n man_n beguile_v themselves_o when_o they_o make_v such_o comparison_n as_o these_o what_o i_o see_v other_o man_n live_v no_o better_a than_o myself_o and_o if_o i_o have_v fault_n in_o i_o so_o have_v other_o man_n in_o they_o too_o you_o see_v then_o what_o be_v the_o cause_n that_o man_n condemn_v not_o themselves_o as_o they_o ought_v to_o do_v but_o rather_o soothe_v themselves_o in_o justify_v their_o own_o case_n but_o here_o it_o be_v express_o say_v that_o man_n shall_v not_o be_v justify_v with_o god_n what_o must_v we_o then_o do_v as_o oft_o as_o any_o man_n speak_v to_o we_o of_o our_o sin_n and_o lay_v they_o afore_o we_o let_v we_o learn_v to_o know_v that_o we_o must_v not_o hold_v our_o eye_n here_o below_o but_o look_v up_o to_o the_o judgement_n seat_n of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n where_o we_o have_v our_o account_v to_o make_v we_o must_v know_v the_o incomprehensible_a majesty_n of_o god_n therefore_o let_v every_o man_n think_v thereof_o and_o then_o shall_v all_o of_o we_o be_v waken_v to_o withdraw_v ourselves_o out_o of_o our_o folly_n and_o we_o shall_v have_v no_o more_o of_o these_o vain_a imagination_n and_o dotage_n that_o have_v be_v wont_a to_o rock_n sinner_n asleep_a have_v this_o be_v observe_v there_o shall_v be_v none_o of_o the_o debate_n that_o be_v now_o adays_o in_o christendom_n about_o the_o righteousness_n of_o faith_n the_o papist_n can_v not_o be_v persuade_v of_o this_o that_o we_o say_v namely_o that_o we_o become_v righteous_a through_o the_o mere_a favour_n of_o god_n in_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n and_o why_o what_o shall_v become_v of_o the_o merit_n say_v they_o and_o of_o the_o good_a work_n wherein_o the_o salvation_n of_o man_n consist_v and_o why_o do_v the_o papist_n stand_v so_o upon_o their_o merit_n and_o why_o be_v they_o so_o besot_v with_o they_o but_o because_o they_o look_v not_o up_o to_o god_n they_o dispute_v in_o their_o school_n whether_o good_a work_n deserve_v recompense_n and_o wage_n as_o well_o as_o evil_a work_n deserve_v punishment_n for_o they_o be_v thing_n flat_o contrary_a if_o man_n sin_n deserve_v to_o be_v punish_v then_o must_v there_o also_o be_v some_o reward_n for_o virtue_n for_o otherwise_o god_n justice_n shall_v not_o be_v indifferent_a yea_o to_o our_o seem_n and_o so_o
stand_v against_o he_o and_o enterprise_v the_o combat_n that_o be_v speak_v of_o here_o true_a it_o be_v that_o god_n be_v so_o gracious_a to_o some_o as_o that_o he_o daunt_v they_o and_o they_o at_o length_n do_v fall_v in_o array_n but_o that_o must_v not_o be_v take_v hold_n on_o to_o say_v that_o he_o work_v continual_o all_o after_o one_o fashion_n we_o shall_v see_v some_o that_o be_v

recompense_n well_o they_o stand_v in_o their_o own_o conceit_n for_o a_o time_n and_o god_n let_v they_o alone_o there_o on_o the_o other_o side_n satan_n egg_v and_o entice_v they_o and_o make_v

before_o he_o then_o be_v their_o comb_n cut_v and_o good_a right_n they_o shall_v be_v so_o insomuch_o that_o when_o they_o have_v beguile_v not_o only_o the_o world_n but_o also_o themselves_o by_o

what_o job_n declare_v here_o concern_v the_o creation_n of_o man_n and_o concern_v god_n grace_n whereby_o they_o be_v maintain_v in_o their_o state_n then_o mark_v it_o for_o a_o special_a point_n

if_o he_o be_v not_o bereave_v of_o his_o right_a wit_n and_o reason_n no_o sure_o dare_v he_o not_o then_o see_v you_o a_o text_n which_o we_o ought_v to_o mark_v well_o for_o although_o bildad_n do_v misapply_v it_o to_o the_o person_n of_o job_n yet_o be_v the_o sentence_n true_a in_o itself_o and_o aught_o to_o serve_v our_o turn_n in_o asmuch_o as_o we_o see_v that_o impatiency_n be_v a_o kind_n of_o madness_n in_o a_o man_n and_o what_o be_v mean_v by_o impatiency_n it_o be_v not_o simple_o a_o grief_n conceive_v of_o the_o mislike_v of_o our_o adversity_n when_o we_o be_v weary_a of_o they_o but_o it_o be_v a_o excessive_a heartburning_n or_o stomake_v against_o they_o when_o we_o can_v submit_v ourselves_o simple_o unto_o god_n too_o dispose_v of_o we_o at_o his_o pleasure_n therefore_o if_o our_o passion_n be_v so_o unruly_a as_o we_o can_v not_o keep_v any_o measure_n in_o our_o adversity_n then_o do_v impatiency_n overmaster_n we_o and_o if_o we_o have_v no_o hold_n nor_o stay_v of_o ourselves_o we_o must_v needs_o conclude_v that_o we_o be_v no_o better_a than_o fantic_a folk_n against_o god_n yea_o &_o utter_o out_o of_o our_o wit_n true_a it_o be_v that_o we_o

all_o temptation_n and_o adversity_n be_v benefit_n of_o god_n procurement_n towards_o we_o &_o the_o fault_n be_v because_o we_o be_v misadvise_a &_o know_v not_o what_o be_v expedient_a for_o we_o what_o be_v to_o be_v do_v then_o for_o asmuch_o as_o we_o want_v wisdom_n special_o when_o our_o passion_n overmaster_v we_o &_o trouble_v our_o mind_n let_v we_o repair_v unto_o god_n for_o he_o

our_o affection_n that_o we_o be_v not_o in_o to_o great_a a_o choler_n when_o god_n afflict_v we_o assure_v ourselves_o that_o if_o we_o take_v it_o patient_o god_n will_v turn_v all_o to_o our_o

let_v we_o not_o think_v it_o strange_a that_o the_o holy_a scripture_n when_o it_o intend_v to_o move_v we_o to_o honour_n god_n say_v unto_o we_o that_o he_o be_v there_o above_o in_o heaven_n and_o

that_o when_o we_o think_v upon_o god_n we_o may_v learn_v to_o imagine_v no_o earthly_a thing_n but_o pass_v beyond_o this_o world_n and_o not_o stay_v on_o our_o own_o sense_n and_o fantasy_n it_o

this_o cause_n it_o be_v say_v that_o god_n be_v above_o in_o heaven_n and_o if_o this_o same_o be_v well_o know_v unto_o we_o it_o be_v certain_a that_o all_o superstition_n will_v easy_o be_v redress_v as_o in_o deed_n it_o be_v spring_v of_o this_o that_o man_n will_v comprehend_v god_n according_a to_o their_o own_o capacity_n whereas_o they_o be_v not_o able_a to_o hold_v he_o for_o

they_o that_o forge_v idol_n &_o transform_v god_n according_a to_o their_o own_o brain_n be_v falsary_n not_o for_o falsify_v any_o public_a writing_n or_o matter_n of_o record_n but_o for_o

according_a to_o their_o own_o appetite_n be_v guilty_a of_o such_o treason_n so_o much_o the_o more_o than_o ought_v we_o to_o remember_v well_o this_o lesson_n which_o be_v teach_v we_o here_o that_o be_v to_o wit_n that_o god_n be_v above_o to_o the_o end_n that_o as_o oft_o as_o we_o speak_v of_o he_o we_o may_v know_v that_o our_o sese_n shall_v fail_v we_o &_o vanish_v away_o a_o

that_o have_v always_o reign_v in_o it_o how_o happen_v it_o that_o man_n have_v so_o forge_a idol_n &_o think_v that_o god_n be_v not_o nigh_o they_o except_o they_o have_v some_o remembrance_n as_o they_o say_v or_o figure_n of_o he_o it_o be_v for_o that_o man_n take_v leave_v to_o comprehend_v god_n and_o to_o think_v of_o he_o that_o which_o be_v nothing_o so_o this_o be_v then_o the_o fountain_n of_o all_o superstition_n and_o when_o man_n do_v thus_o make_v they_o visible_a shape_n it_o be_v because_o they_o know_v not_o the_o highness_n of_o god_n nor_o his_o incomprehensible_a

good_a and_o such_o a_o thing_n will_v be_v acceptable_a unto_o god_n it_o be_v because_o they_o will_v make_v he_o like_a unto_o themselves_o as_o though_o he_o delight_v in_o all_o the_o small_a

reprove_v job_n for_o say_v that_o god_n suffer_v the_o wicked_a to_o prosper_v and_o punish_v they_o not_o as_o it_o be_v truth_n in_o deed_n according_a to_o the_o judgement_n of_o the_o world_n eliphas_n and_o his_o fellow_n have_v say_v that_o god_n do_v never_o so_o delay_v his_o judgement_n but_o that_o they_o appear_v here_o amongst_o we_o which_o be_v against_o experience_n so_o that_o the_o say_n of_o job_n be_v true_a that_o we_o must_v patient_o abide_v till_o our_o god_n set_v all_o thing_n in_o order_n again_o which_o shall_v not_o be_v do_v in_o this_o world_n we_o must_v they_o walk_v in_o hope_n and_o hope_n import_v so_o much_o that_o we_o shall_v not_o have_v our_o sight_n stay_v upon_o thing_n present_a but_o that_o although_o all_o thing_n be_v out_o of_o order_n yet_o we_o must_v quiet_o abide_v god_n pleasure_n eliphas_n ground_v himself_o upon_o this_o point_n that_o if_o we_o consider_v the_o course_n of_o the_o world_n we_o shall_v see_v that_o god_n have_v at_o all_o time_n punish_v the_o wicked_a true_a it_o be_v as_o we_o have_v oftentimes_o say_v that_o god_n have_v always_o give_v some_o token_n of_o his_o judgement_n for_o to_o keep_v man_n in_o awe_n but_o so_o far_o off_o be_v it_o that_o hereof_o we_o shall_v make_v a_o general_a rule_n that_o the_o same_o be_v contrary_a to_o all_o reason_n &_o truth_n now_o let_v we_o come_v again_o to_o that_o which_o have_v be_v already_o begin_v to_o be_v handle_v eliphas_n speak_v of_o the_o wicked_a attribute_v unto_o they_o such_o a_o pride_n that_o they_o utter_o refuse_v god_n &_o will_v not_o have_v he_o come_v near_o they_o not_o that_o they_o do_v utter_v such_o word_n with_o their_o mouth_n but_o because_o they_o can_v not_o abide_v that_o god_n shall_v bring_v they_o under_o his_o subjection_n as_o it_o be_v see_v then_o till_o such_o time_n as_o god_n have_v tame_v man_n by_o his_o holy_a spirit_n they_o can_v not_o bear_v the_o yoke_n every_o man_n will_v have_v liberty_n too_o do_v as_o he_o list_v but_o here_o be_v mention_v make_v of_o they_o which_o have_v be_v harden_v a_o long_a time_n &_o be_v weary_a of_o all_o good_a doctrine_n and_o so_o hate_v it_o that_o they_o will_v wish_v that_o they_o may_v never_o hear_v more_o word_n of_o it_o the_o number_n of_o such_o man_n have_v always_o be_v to_o great_a as_o it_o be_v at_o this_o day_n furthermore_o when_o they_o be_v go_v so_o far_o astray_o as_o they_o refuse_v the_o doctrine_n of_o god_n they_o do_v all_o thing_n to_o spite_v he_o withal_o as_o though_o he_o can_v do_v nothing_o against_o they_o and_o say_v what_o can_v the_o almighty_a do_v unto_o we_o truth_n it_o be_v that_o they_o will_v not_o spew_v out_o such_o blasphemy_n but_o yet_o they_o walk_v bold_o like_o murderer_n so_o as_o they_o care_v no_o more_o for_o any_o threaten_a but_o make_v a_o mock_n at_o all_o thing_n until_o the_o hand_n of_o god_n urge_v they_o and_o constrain_v they_o â–ª_o they_o will_v go_v on_o still_o in_o their_o wickedness_n now_o this_o be_v as_o much_o as_o if_o they_o shall_v affirm_v that_o they_o care_v not_o for_o any_o thing_n that_o god_n can_v do_v unto_o they_o and_o so_o to_o be_v short_a â–ª_o we_o see_v that_o eliphas_n mean_v here_o to_o declare_v how_o far_o man_n pass_v their_o bound_n when_o they_o have_v a_o while_n continue_v in_o mischief_n and_o be_v become_v so_o devilish_a that_o they_o can_v not_o abide_v to_o be_v admonish_v and_o bring_v into_o the_o right_a way_n namely_o that_o they_o defy_v god_n as_o though_o he_o have_v no_o more_o authority_n over_o they_o and_o it_o be_v not_o only_o in_o this_o place_n that_o we_o see_v it_o so_o will_v to_o god_n we_o have_v not_o example_n thereof_o before_o our_o eye_n but_o let_v we_o note_v that_o which_o have_v be_v touch_v namely_o that_o the_o holy_a ghost_n mean_v to_o show_v we_o here_o as_o in_o a_o glass_n whether_o man_n fall_v headlong_o when_o they_o be_v a_o long_a time_n noozele_v in_o their_o sin_n that_o be_v to_o say_v that_o there_o be_v such_o brutish_a beastliness_n in_o they_o as_o they_o run_v with_o their_o head_n against_o god_n for_o there_o be_v no_o more_o remorse_n of_o conscience_n in_o they_o as_z s._n paul_n say_v their_o conscience_n be_v rock_v fast_o a_o sleep_n so_o as_o they_o make_v no_o more_o doubt_n of_o any_o thing_n and_o it_o serve_v to_o the_o end_n that_o we_o shall_v walk_v in_o fear_n and_o pray_v unto_o god_n that_o he_o suffer_v we_o not_o to_o come_v into_o such_o extremity_n now_o let_v we_o go_v on_o forward_a with_o the_o say_n of_o eliphas_n he_o ask_v of_o job_n whither_o he_o have_v mark_v the_o way_n of_o such_o man_n or_o whither_o be_v have_v take_v good_a heed_n of_o it_o they_o which_o expound_v this_o

man_n altogether_o without_o judgement_n for_o that_o he_o doubt_v whither_o god_n punish_v the_o wicked_a see_v he_o have_v always_o perceive_v that_o he_o do_v it_o but_o herein_o be_v he_o deceive_v for_o that_o he_o say_v always_o that_o may_v have_v well_o be_v but_o yet_o god_n have_v not_o cease_v to_o reserve_v many_o punishment_n unto_o the_o time_n to_o come_v he_o overthrow_v the_o city_n of_o sodom_n with_o the_o other_o near_o unto_o it_o but_o have_v he_o do_v the_o like_a to_o all_o other_o town_n that_o be_v so_o give_v over_o to_o evil_a no_o true_o he_o do_v once_o send_v a_o flood_n over_o all_o the_o world_n yea_o but_o it_o be_v but_o once_o and_o yet_o we_o see_v that_o man_n have_v not_o cease_v to_o provoke_v his_o vengeance_n upon_o they_o yea_o but_o we_o must_v not_o appoint_v he_o a_o law_n to_o punish_v sin_n always_o alike_o he_o will_v deal_v as_o it_o please_v he_o &_o we_o must_v content_v ourselves_o with_o the_o order_n that_o he_o take_v yea_o true_o for_o as_o we_o have_v show_v if_o he_o reserve_v no_o punishment_n it_o will_v seem_v that_o there_o shall_v be_v no_o judgement_n &_o that_o we_o shall_v no_o more_o come_v to_o any_o

be_v no_o more_o of_o the_o resurrection_n therefore_o it_o behove_v our_o god_n too_o use_v such_o mean_n as_o he_o do_v but_o only_o give_v we_o some_o example_n whereby_o we_o may_v know_v that_o sin_n shall_v not_o remain_v before_o he_o unpunished_a &_o that_o whereas_o he_o delay_v we_o as_o now_o &_o hold_v we_o in_o suspense_n till_o the_o latter_a day_n it_o be_v too_o the_o end_n that_o we_o shall_v not_o fix_v our_o mind_n here_o beneath_o as_o though_o thing_n be_v already_o so_o accomplish_v that_o there_o be_v no_o more_o to_o be_v wish_v for_o this_o be_v then_o a_o brief_a sum_n of_o that_o which_o eliphas_n mind_v to_o say_v in_o this_o verse_n have_v thou_o not_o mark_v the_o way_n of_o the_o world_n for_o this_o word_n world_n signify_v sometime_o antiquity_n as_o if_o he_o shall_v say_v â–ª_o it_o be_v not_o now_o that_o god_n begin_v to_o punish_v the_o wicked_a but_o the_o history_n of_o old_a time_n do_v show_v we_o that_o he_o have_v always_o do_v so_o it_o be_v so_o long_o ago_o since_o sodom_n and_o gomorrha_n perish_v
reject_v except_o he_o show_v they_o unto_o we_o as_o he_o do_v they_o of_o sodom_n and_o gomorrha_n and_o those_o that_o be_v destroy_v by_o the_o flood_n here_o we_o have_v a_o certain_a testimony_n of_o the_o extreme_a vengeance_n of_o god_n for_o there_o be_v no_o place_n of_o repentance_n leave_v for_o those_o wretched_a person_n because_o they_o make_v themselves_o unworthy_a of_o mercy_n of_o these_o they_o &_o other_o such_o like_v we_o may_v rejoice_v but_o when_o god_n shall_v chastise_v our_o neighbour_n and_o we_o know_v not_o yet_o whether_o he_o will_v have_v pity_n on_o they_o we_o must_v have_v compassion_n on_o their_o misery_n and_o be_v so_o move_v with_o the_o judgement_n of_o god_n as_o we_o may_v conceive_v hope_n that_o he_o will_v send_v some_o release_n to_o they_o that_o be_v so_o afflict_v too_o be_v short_a thus_o must_v we_o put_v this_o text_n in_o practice_n true_a it_o be_v that_o this_o doctrine_n thus_o brief_o touch_v may_v be_v dark_a but_o if_o every_o man_n note_v well_o that_o which_o i_o have_v touch_v he_o may_v afterward_o more_o at_o large_a think_v on_o it_o and_o so_o the_o thing_n that_o be_v thus_o brief_o touch_v may_v nevertheless_o content_a we_o first_o of_o all_o i_o have_v say_v that_o we_o must_v use_v such_o gentleness_n towards_o all_o our_o neighbour_n as_o to_o wish_v their_o health_n and_o to_o be_v sorry_a for_o their_o evil_n as_o s._n paul_n teach_v we_o that_o the_o rule_n of_o charity_n require_v lament_v say_v he_o with_o they_o that_o suffer_v and_o we_o see_v that_o the_o child_n of_o god_n have_v always_o have_v this_o affection_n and_o zeal_n yet_o if_o we_o see_v that_o god_n punish_v sin_n we_o may_v also_o rejoice_v at_o it_o yea_o and_o for_o as_o much_o as_o god_n therein_o declare_v &_o show_v himself_o unto_o we_o our_o say_v must_v be_v the_o more_o and_o more_o ratify_v and_o confirm_v in_o he_o when_o we_o see_v that_o he_o have_v a_o care_n over_o mankind_n and_o that_o all_o thing_n be_v guide_v by_o he_o now_o it_o follow_v that_o our_o substance_n be_v not_o consume_v true_a it_o be_v that_o word_n for_o word_n it_o be_v if_o our_o substance_n be_v not_o

which_o do_v not_o agree_v with_o it_o let_v we_o simple_o hold_v that_o which_o eliphas_n mean_v to_o say_v he_o make_v here_o comparison_n of_o the_o righteous_a with_o the_o wicked_a and_o of_o the_o faithful_a with_o the_o despiser_n of_o god_n as_o concern_v the_o faithful_a say_v he_o of_o a_o truth_n our_o substance_n be_v hide_v now_o when_o he_o use_v this_o word_n by_o the_o he_o

be_v not_o as_o it_o be_v in_o secret_a &_o lay_v up_o as_o a_o treasure_n it_o be_v certain_a that_o our_o life_n every_o minute_n of_o a_o hour_n shall_v be_v take_v from_o we_o one_o way_n or_o

which_o s._n paul_n teach_v we_o namely_o that_o we_o be_v dead_a &_o our_o life_n be_v hide_v s._n paul_n show_v what_o be_v the_o state_n and_o condition_n of_o the_o faithful_a while_o they_o be_v

this_o mark_n then_o shall_v we_o not_o rove_v in_o the_o holy_a scripture_n as_o we_o be_v wont_a to_o do_v for_o whereof_o come_v this_o vice_n that_o man_n can_v find_v in_o their_o heart_n to_o

here_o you_o see_v also_o why_o solomon_n in_o the_o text_n that_o we_o allege_v out_o of_o the_o first_o chapter_n of_o his_o proverb_n say_v that_o the_o knowledge_n of_o holy_a thing_n be_v the_o

two_o thing_n together_o in_o unseparable_a bond_n it_o behoove_v we_o also_o to_o knit_v they_o together_o hereby_o he_o mean_v that_o the_o fear_n of_o god_n will_v never_o be_v in_o we_o till_o we_o be_v come_v to_o the_o point_n that_o we_o speak_v of_o which_o be_v that_o we_o know_v god_n mercy_n as_o it_o be_v offer_v we_o in_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n namely_o that_o we_o be_v

such_o a_o piteous_a hardheartedness_n in_o we_o but_o as_o for_o goodness_n we_o forgo_v it_o by-and-by_o there_o need_v nothing_o to_o thrust_v we_o from_o it_o we_o have_v a_o fair_a mirror_n

and_o here_o withal_o we_o see_v in_o this_o example_n of_o the_o person_n of_o eliu_n that_o god_n have_v always_o leave_v some_o good_a seed_n in_o the_o midst_n of_o darkness_n and_o that_o there_o have_v always_o be_v some_o good_a and_o holy_a doctrine_n and_o why_o to_o the_o end_n the_o unbeliever_n shall_v be_v leave_v unexcusable_a so_o as_o they_o can_v not_o allege_v that_o ignorance_n reign_v over_o all_o for_o whereof_o come_v it_o that_o god_n be_v not_o serve_v and_o worship_v pure_o but_o for_o that_o man_n turn_v their_o back_n upon_o he_o and_o they_o do_v not_o that_o through_o a_o simplicity_n whereunto_o they_o may_v give_v some_o colour_n of_o honesty_n but_o rather_o of_o a_o stubborn_a wilfulness_n man_n be_v loath_a to_o be_v beguile_v yea_o or_o to_o seem_v to_o be_v beguile_v but_o when_o it_o come_v to_o the_o serve_v of_o god_n they_o shut_v their_o eye_n quench_v all_o the_o light_n that_o shine_v in_o they_o and_o seek_v nothing_o but_o to_o give_v

that_o although_o these_o man_n be_v no_o prophet_n of_o god_n yet_o notwithstanding_o the_o doctrine_n that_o proceed_v from_o they_o have_v such_o a_o majesty_n as_o it_o may_v right_a well_o

in_o very_a deed_n as_o i_o have_v declare_v afore_o the_o thing_n that_o have_v be_v set_v out_o by_o they_o aught_o to_o be_v receive_v as_o out_o of_o the_o school_n of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n and_o although_o these_o personage_n be_v so_o excellent_a yet_o be_v they_o not_o teach_v by_o the_o law_n of_o moses_n but_o be_v separate_v from_o the_o church_n of_o god_n for_o if_o the_o law_n be_v

be_v partaker_n of_o the_o doctrine_n which_o god_n have_v simple_o appoint_v for_o his_o people_n we_o see_v then_o that_o man_n which_o have_v no_o scripture_n nor_o any_o thing_n save_o the_o

strange_a country_n yet_o we_o see_v that_o god_n have_v give_v they_o a_o knowledge_n sufficient_a too_o edify_v all_o the_o common_a people_n thus_o you_o see_v how_o the_o world_n can_v not_o be_v

the_o other_o three_o be_v exempt_v from_o the_o common_a corruption_n of_o that_o time_n and_o so_o we_o see_v that_o the_o pure_a religion_n be_v not_o quite_o abolish_v among_o they_o but_o that_o
they_o have_v a_o sufficient_a doctrine_n to_o lead_v they_o to_o god_n and_o to_o convince_v the_o world_n of_o the_o wilfulness_n and_o ignorance_n that_o be_v in_o it_o thus_o you_o see_v what_o we_o have_v too_o mark_v in_o the_o first_o place_n also_o when_o we_o hear_v it_o say_v that_o god_n give_v man_n over_o to_o walk_v in_o destruction_n let_v we_o mark_v well_o that_o it_o be_v because_o he_o be_v not_o so_o gracious_a to_o all_o man_n as_o to_o give_v they_o the_o peculiar_a doctrine_n which_o he_o have_v reserve_v to_o his_o own_o people_n and_o church_n but_o yet_o be_v that_o no_o excuse_n for_o they_o god_n therefore_o do_v let_v all_o man_n run_v astray_o and_o they_o be_v all_o drown_v in_o destruction_n nevertheless_o there_o continue_v always_o some_o seed_n

himself_o from_o it_o for_o it_o abide_v engrave_v in_o their_o conscience_n that_o the_o world_n be_v not_o make_v by_o itself_o but_o that_o there_o be_v a_o heavenly_a majesty_n whereunto_o it_o must_v needs_o be_v subject_a very_o saint_n paul_n speak_v express_o of_o the_o record_n which_o god_n have_v imprint_v in_o his_o creature_n insomuch_o that_o the_o order_n of_o the_o world_n be_v

god_n then_o have_v leave_v these_o trace_n and_o crank_n in_o the_o heart_n of_o the_o ignorant_a to_o the_o end_n that_o man_n may_v not_o cover_v themselves_o with_o any_o excuse_n but_o be_v

stone_n to_o honour_v the_o sun_n and_o moon_n to_o make_v puppet_n and_o quite_o and_o clean_o to_o forget_v the_o live_a god_n how_o can_v this_o come_v to_o pass_v for_o it_o be_v all_o one_o as_o if_o a_o man_n shall_v wilful_o run_v headlong_o against_o a_o thing_n at_o high_a noon_n or_o like_o the_o stumble_n of_o a_o drunken_a man_n that_o reel_v aside_o though_o he_o see_v the_o right_a

of_o person_n because_o we_o have_v regard_n too_o ourselves_o we_o shall_v rather_o be_v angry_a with_o ourselves_o if_o we_o will_v that_o god_n shall_v allow_v of_o our_o anger_n and_o wrath_n and_o this_o be_v the_o thing_n which_o saint_n paul_n speak_v for_o he_o allege_v purposely_o that_o which_o be_v say_v in_o the_o psalm_n concern_v our_o be_v angry_a howbeit_o without_o offend_v

himself_o to_o condemn_v himself_o and_o too_o fight_v against_o his_o own_o passion_n you_o see_v then_o after_o what_o sort_n we_o may_v be_v angry_a and_o at_o what_o point_n we_o must_v begin_v our_o anger_n if_o we_o will_v have_v it_o allow_v of_o god_n that_o be_v to_o wit_n every_o man_n must_v begin_v at_o himself_o and_o be_v angry_a at_o his_o own_o sin_n and_o vice_n and_o cast_v up_o our_o choler_n at_o they_o in_o that_o we_o see_v we_o have_v provoke_v god_n wrath_n against_o we_o and_o be_v full_a of_o so_o much_o wretchedness_n let_v we_o be_v angry_a and_o grieve_a at_o that_o let_v that_o be_v the_o point_n for_o we_o too_o begin_v at_o and_o afterward_o let_v we_o condemn_v the_o evil_a wheresoever_o it_o be_v find_v as_o well_o in_o ourselves_o as_o in_o our_o

after_o this_o manner_n shall_v our_o anger_n be_v allowable_a and_o shall_v show_v that_o the_o same_o proceed_v of_o a_o true_a zeal_n to_o godward_o true_a it_o be_v that_o we_o shall_v not_o

shall_v be_v allowable_a if_o it_o spring_v out_o of_o the_o say_a fountain_n that_o be_v too_o say_v if_o we_o hate_v the_o evil_a wheresoever_o we_o find_v it_o even_o though_o it_o be_v in_o our_o

we_o see_v a_o man_n chafe_v or_o in_o a_o choler_n we_o must_v not_o always_o take_v it_o for_o a_o vice_n as_o we_o see_v these_o scorner_n of_o god_n do_v which_o say_v oh_o will_v you_o storm_v so_o be_v it_o meet_v you_o shall_v be_v angry_a may_v you_o not_o use_v a_o quiet_a fashion_n they_o blaspheme_v and_o despise_v god_n wicked_o according_a as_o there_o be_v many_o to_o be_v see_v which_o can_v find_v in_o their_o heart_n to_o overthrow_v all_o doctrine_n seek_v nothing_o else_o but_o too_o spread_v such_o corruption_n abroad_o as_o man_n may_v not_o any_o more_o know_v god_n and_o that_o his_o truth_n may_v be_v bury_v and_o when_o they_o have_v so_o do_v they_o will_v have_v man_n to_o wink_v at_o they_o or_o rather_o to_o allow_v all_o their_o do_n and_o to_o tell_v

without_o be_v angry_a how_o then_o be_v it_o possible_a that_o we_o shall_v see_v a_o mortal_a and_o transitory_a creature_n lift_v up_o himself_o after_o that_o fashion_n against_o god_n to_o trample_v all_o good_a doctrine_n under_o his_o foot_n and_o yet_o notwithstanding_o bear_v it_o patient_o we_o shall_v show_v thereby_o that_o there_o be_v no_o zeal_n of_o god_n in_o we_o for_o it_o be_v say_v in_o the_o psalm_n that_o the_o zeal_n of_o god_n house_n ought_v to_o eat_v we_o up_o for_o if_o we_o have_v a_o worm_n gnaw_v upon_o our_o heart_n it_o ought_v not_o to_o grieve_v we_o so_o much_o as_o when_o there_o be_v any_o reproach_n do_v unto_o god_n and_o when_o we_o see_v his_o truth_n turn_v into_o a_o lie_n so_o then_o let_v we_o learn_v not_o to_o wink_v at_o vice_n but_o let_v we_o discern_v between_o godly_a zeal_n and_o the_o fleshly_a anger_n wherewith_o man_n be_v move_v and_o inflame_v in_o their_o own_o quarrel_n according_a as_o it_o be_v say_v the_o here_o that_o eliu_n be_v kindle_v with_o displeasure_n and_o in_o a_o hot_a anger_n and_o yet_o notwithstanding_o it_o be_v reckon_v too_o he_o for_o a_o virtue_n for_o it_o be_v the_o holy_a ghost_n

furthermore_o according_a to_o that_o which_o i_o have_v say_v let_v we_o learn_v to_o utter_v our_o choler_n when_o we_o see_v god_n honour_n wound_v and_o when_o man_n go_v about_o to_o darken_v

man_n true_a it_o be_v that_o it_o be_v his_o ordinary_a justice_n too_o punish_v sin_n nevertheless_o sometime_o it_o be_v his_o will_n too_o try_v the_o obedience_n of_o good_a man_n and_o of_o such_o as_o have_v serve_v he_o and_o apply_v their_o whole_a endeavour_n too_o follow_v his_o commandment_n yea_o and_o those_o shall_v be_v handle_v with_o great_a rigour_n than_o the_o wicked_a and_o why_o for_o god_n intend_v to_o teach_v they_o what_o it_o be_v too_o be_v humble_a and_o obedient_a see_v the_o case_n stand_v so_o it_o behove_v we_o to_o refrain_v from_o hasty_a judgement_n when_o any_o man_n be_v afflict_v for_o god_n will_v also_o preserve_v his_o servant_n from_o the_o temptation_n that_o he_o send_v they_o true_a it_o be_v that_o if_o they_o have_v by_o any_o mean_v provoke_v he_o too_o displeasure_n he_o remedy_v that_o evil_a by_o afflict_v they_o now_o shall_v we_o thereupon_o judge_v that_o such_o as_o be_v handle_v rough_o be_v the_o wicked_a what_o a_o

this_o as_o well_o to_o our_o neighbour_n as_o to_o ourselves_o if_o we_o see_v man_n that_o be_v afflict_v with_o many_o misery_n let_v we_o first_o look_v unto_o their_o life_n and_o not_o be_v hasty_a too_o give_v sentence_n upon_o they_o but_o consider_v how_o they_o have_v live_v if_o a_o despiser_n of_o god_n a_o unruly_a person_n a_o man_n give_v to_o outrageous_a vice_n be_v grievous_o punish_v let_v we_o acknowledge_v that_o therein_o god_n show_v we_o as_o it_o be_v in_o a_o picture_n what_o his_o vengeance_n be_v and_o there_o we_o have_v a_o just_a occasion_n to_o judge_v why_o so_o for_o the_o thing_n itself_o speak_v when_o a_o man_n have_v despise_v god_n and_o spend_v his_o whole_a life_n disorderly_a and_o we_o see_v that_o god_n scourge_v he_o in_o that_o behalf_n there_o be_v no_o doubt_v the_o matter_n itself_o be_v not_o dark_a nor_o difficulty_n so_o then_o our_o judgement_n shall_v not_o be_v overhasty_a if_o we_o proceed_v after_o that_o sort_n but_o contrariwise_o if_o we_o have_v seek_v for_o the_o reason_n why_o god_n afflict_v man_n and_o see_v none_o as_o if_o some_o man_n have_v walk_v upright_o in_o that_o case_n we_o must_v bridle_v

which_o be_v that_o we_o shall_v walk_v in_o the_o fear_n of_o god_n and_o take_v warning_n by_o other_o man_n harm_n behold_v god_n punish_v whoremonger_n thief_n and_o rebel_n and_o that_o be_v to_o the_o end_n that_o we_o shall_v learn_v too_o walk_v in_o his_o obedience_n and_o not_o provoke_v his_o wrath_n as_o those_o do_v who_o we_o see_v so_o rough_o handle_v this_o then_o be_v the_o thing_n which_o we_o have_v too_o do_v when_o god_n make_v we_o to_o behold_v his_o vengeance_n in_o such_o as_o have_v be_v utter_o rebellious_a against_o he_o but_o if_o we_o see_v the_o good_a

that_o mean_n let_v we_o assure_v ourselves_o it_o be_v not_o too_o the_o end_n we_o shall_v take_v the_o more_o liberty_n to_o do_v evil_a but_o to_o restrain_v we_o and_o as_o it_o be_v to_o tie_v we_o up_o too_o the_o intent_n we_o shall_v submit_v ourselves_o whole_o unto_o our_o god_n when_o we_o have_v so_o consider_v the_o scourge_n and_o affliction_n that_o god_n send_v upon_o our_o

reason_n why_o yet_o let_v not_o our_o heart_n fail_v we_o neither_o let_v we_o vex_v ourselves_o in_o dispute_v with_o god_n though_o he_o do_v not_o as_o we_o will_v have_v he_o but_o rather_o let_v we_o learn_v too_o comfort_n ourselves_o and_o although_o god_n seem_v to_o be_v our_o mortal_a enemy_n and_o to_o thunder_v against_o we_o yet_o notwithstanding_o let_v we_o trust_v in_o he_o as_o

for_o man_n to_o gaze_v so_o much_o at_o the_o present_a affliction_n as_o too_o say_v that_o because_o god_n hand_n be_v rough_a hard_a and_o sharp_a upon_o a_o creature_n therefore_o he_o utter_o

time_n serve_v and_o then_o speak_v and_o this_o be_v a_o point_n which_o we_o ought_v to_o mark_v very_o well_o for_o we_o know_v that_o in_o god_n church_n all_o thing_n ought_v to_o be_v handle_v orderly_a and_o comely_a as_o saint_n paul_n say_v therefore_o there_o be_v two_o thing_n requisite_a in_o the_o manner_n of_o teach_v first_o that_o order_n be_v observe_v and_o second_o that_o the_o order_n be_v match_v with_o honesty_n so_o as_o the_o thing_n may_v be_v comely_a and_o convenient_a see_v it_o be_v so_o let_v we_o bear_v in_o mind_n the_o example_n of_o eliu_n and_o let_v we_o hold_v we_o to_o the_o doctrine_n that_o saint_n paul_n give_v we_o in_o the_o say_a text_n which_o be_v that_o there_o be_v no_o disorder_n amongst_o we_o according_a also_o as_o saint_n paul_n say_v in_o another_o strain_n of_o the_o text_n by_o i_o allege_v that_o although_o god_n have_v raise_v up_o many_o prophet_n in_o his_o church_n and_o that_o there_o be_v many_o which_o have_v skill_n too_o speak_v yea_o and_o also_o wherewith_o to_o teach_v yet_o notwithstanding_o it_o be_v not_o for_o they_o all_o to_o utter_v forth_o what_o be_v give_v they_o for_o it_o behove_v that_o there_o be_v order_n and_o measure_n and_o also_o there_o be_v a_o certain_a honest_a comeliness_n to_o be_v keep_v that_o therefore_o be_v the_o thing_n which_o be_v show_v we_o here_o in_o the_o example_n of_o eliu_n when_o he_o say_v that_o he_o will_v speak_v yea_o but_o that_o be_v when_o he_o see_v that_o thing_n be_v misorder_a and_o that_o job_n friend_n have_v disguise_v the_o truth_n and_o that_o they_o have_v maintain_v a_o evil_a and_o false_a principle_n for_o although_o they_o use_v fair_a and_o apparent_a reason_n to_o colour_v the_o matter_n with_o all_o yet_o notwithstanding_o the_o foundation_n whereupon_o they_o build_v be_v not_o good_a and_o job_n also_o on_o his_o side_n although_o his_o case_n be_v just_a yet_o notwithstanding_o do_v handle_v it_o amiss_o and_o use_v many_o wander_a word_n therefore_o after_o that_o eliu_n have_v hearken_v quiet_o now_o when_o he_o see_v that_o god_n give_v he_o a_o entrance_n and_o access_n he_o use_v it_o and_o beside_o this_o he_o be_v also_o constrain_v to_o do_v so_o according_a as_o he_o show_v when_o he_o add_v that_o his_o heart_n be_v grieve_v and_o that_o he_o be_v like_a to_o a_o cask_n full_a of_o new_a wine_n if_o a_o man_n put_v new_a wine_n into_o a_o cask_n and_o close_v it_o up_o and_o give_v it_o no_o vent_n the_o cask_n burst_v when_o the_o wine_n boil_v even_o so_o say_v eliu_n that_o his_o mind_n

put_v forth_o his_o opinion_n to_o the_o end_n that_o the_o case_n which_o have_v be_v evil_o debate_v may_v now_o be_v order_v by_o reason_n and_o because_o eliu_n speak_v here_o with_o great_a vehemency_n some_o perceive_v not_o the_o cause_n have_v think_v he_o too_o be_v a_o man_n of_o a_o lofty_a mind_n and_o full_a of_o boast_v but_o first_o of_o all_o we_o see_v that_o god_n condemn_v he_o not_o whereas_o he_o condemn_v job_n and_o his_o friend_n and_o show_v that_o all_o of_o they_o have_v do_v amiss_o one_o way_n or_o other_o yet_o notwithstanding_o eliu_n be_v justify_v now_o see_v that_o god_n condemn_v he_o not_o what_o mortal_a man_n shall_v take_v upon_o he_o the_o authority_n to_o judge_v above_o god_n therefore_o that_o be_v great_a folly_n moreover_o this_o must_v not_o be_v think_v so_o strange_a a_o thing_n for_o we_o must_v not_o bear_v in_o mind_n how_o it_o have_v be_v declare_v heretofore_o that_o eliu_n be_v not_o as_o one_o of_o the_o prophet_n that_o be_v in_o god_n church_n after_o that_o god_n have_v publish_v his_o law_n by_o the_o hand_n of_o moses_n he_o promise_v also_o that_o the_o people_n of_o israel_n shall_v never_o be_v destitute_a of_o prophet_n for_o it_o be_v write_v in_o deutr._n thou_o shall_v not_o go_v to_o sorcerer_n nor_o soothsayers_n thou_o shall_v not_o seek_v for_o such_o revelation_n as_o the_o heathen_a do_v thou_o shall_v not_o run_v after_o witchcraft_n and_o other_o vain_a science_n neither_o shall_v thou_o ask_v counsel_n at_o the_o dead_a for_o thy_o god_n shall_v always_o raise_v thou_o up_o a_o

they_o have_v no_o prophet_n nor_o any_o certain_a doctrine_n to_o lead_v and_o guide_v they_o but_o it_o be_v not_o so_o with_o you_o say_v god_n to_o the_o child_n of_o israel_n i_o will_v always_o give_v you_o some_o prophet_n so_o as_o i_o will_v dwell_v familiar_o among_o you_o and_o my_o truth_n shall_v be_v know_v unto_o you_o thus_o then_o there_o be_v prophet_n in_o the_o church_n of_o god_n according_a to_o his_o promise_n and_o that_o be_v continual_o a_o common_a thing_n but_o eliu_n dwell_v among_o such_o folk_n as_o have_v not_o the_o law_n and_o promise_n of_o god_n neither_o

that_o there_o and_o nachor_n who_o be_v the_o great_a grandfather_n and_o ancestor_n of_o eliu_n be_v idolater_n
see_v then_o that_o eliu_n be_v instruct_v by_o god_n with_o skill_n too_o speak_v as_o we_o have_v see_v the_o same_o be_v a_o extraordinary_a matter_n and_o therefore_o we_o must_v not_o think_v strange_a that_o there_o be_v a_o great_a operation_n in_o he_o and_o that_o god_n show_v here_o a_o unaccustomed_a power_n and_o that_o eliu_n also_o feel_v himself_o as_o it_o be_v change_v for_o to_o the_o intent_n that_o prophecy_n shall_v have_v the_o more_o authority_n we_o see_v that_o god_n have_v at_o time_n set_v some_o apparent_a mark_n in_o they_o like_a as_o when_o god_n call_v

that_o the_o same_o be_v a_o customable_a order_n i_o say_v if_o he_o change_v they_o in_o such_o wise_a as_o it_o appear_v that_o they_o be_v as_o man_n ravish_v much_o more_o reason_n be_v it_o that_o when_o he_o wrought_v in_o a_o heathen_a man_n which_o be_v out_o of_o his_o church_n there_o must_v needs_o be_v some_o notable_a mark_n in_o that_o behalf_n so_o as_o the_o world_n may_v

work_v after_o a_o new_a fashion_n in_o this_o man_n and_o why_o for_o youth_n of_o itself_o shall_v not_o be_v hear_v among_o man_n because_o that_o old_a man_n make_v great_a account_n of_o their_o

and_o to_o stop_v our_o mouth_n nevertheless_o it_o behove_v we_o to_o fight_v against_o such_o temptation_n after_o the_o example_n of_o eliu_n you_o see_v then_o how_o god_n servant_n ought_v too_o

god_n word_n as_o we_o ought_v to_o do_v let_v we_o begin_v at_o the_o know_v of_o our_o own_o infirmity_n and_o when_o we_o be_v well_o acquaint_v with_o they_o that_o will_v lead_v we_o to_o a_o

of_o pride_n and_o stubborness_n the_o word_n of_o god_n have_v need_v to_o be_v unto_o they_o as_o a_o hammer_n to_o bruise_v and_o break_v their_o hardness_n but_o yet_o notwithstanding_o we_o

that_o it_o have_v be_v worse_o with_o we_o than_o with_o all_o other_o man_n if_o god_n have_v not_o give_v we_o the_o thing_n which_o we_o have_v receive_v of_o he_o again_o will_v we_o comfort_v

with_o our_o own_o infirmity_n and_o that_o it_o grieve_v we_o to_o deal_v rigorous_o like_v as_o although_o a_o father_n beat_v his_o child_n and_o use_n much_o more_o rough_a word_n to_o they_o than_o he_o will_v do_v to_o stranger_n yet_o notwithstanding_o his_o heart_n bleed_v when_o he_o be_v fain_o to_o transform_v himself_o after_o that_o sort_n then_o let_v we_o mark_v that_o a_o man_n

of_o evil_a shepherd_n which_o have_v misintreat_v god_n people_n through_o tyranny_n he_o say_v that_o they_o reign_v over_o they_o with_o all_o rigour_n and_o lordliness_n yea_o but_o contrariwise_o it_o be_v show_v we_o here_o that_o all_o such_o as_o will_v quit_v themselves_o faithful_o towards_o god_n and_o their_o neighbour_n when_o they_o be_v set_v in_o high_a degree_n must_v not_o therefore_o advance_v themselves_o but_o rather_o know_v that_o if_o they_o intend_v to_o carry_v terror_n with_o they_o to_o put_v poor_a folk_n in_o a_o fear_n god_n must_v be_v fain_o to_o show_v

he_o speak_v in_o the_o say_a text_n of_o ezechiel_n god_n then_o will_v show_v that_o those_o to_o who_o he_o have_v give_v the_o sword_n and_o seat_n of_o justice_n and_o those_o who_o he_o have_v

this_o text_n and_o herewithal_o eliu_n show_v after_o what_o manner_n we_o ought_v to_o receive_v doctrine_n that_o be_v to_o wit_n that_o if_o we_o know_v it_o to_o be_v true_a and_o right_a we_o must_v out_o of_o hand_n pass_v with_o it_o without_o gainsay_v although_o we_o be_v not_o force_v nor_o constrain_v unto_o it_o you_o see_v then_o what_o we_o have_v to_o bear_v in_o mind_n concern_v the_o circumstance_n of_o the_o place_n and_o the_o matter_n that_o be_v to_o wit_n that_o when_o a_o good_a doctrine_n be_v propound_v unto_o we_o very_o well_o he_o be_v but_o a_o mortal_a man_n that_o speak_v it_o but_o do_v we_o see_v that_o he_o have_v reason_n and_o truth_n then_o let_v we_o assure_v ourselves_o that_o in_o reply_v against_o he_o we_o fight_v not_o only_o against_o god_n but_o also_o against_o our_o own_o conscience_n which_o be_v a_o sufficient_a judge_n to_o condemn_v we_o and_o herewithal_o we_o have_v a_o very_a profitable_a warning_n to_o gather_v which_o be_v that_o whensoever_o we_o come_v to_o be_v teach_v in_o the_o name_n of_o god_n if_o we_o see_v that_o the_o doctrine_n which_o be_v offer_v we_o be_v right_a there_o must_v be_v no_o more_o reply_n for_o we_o shall_v win_v nothing_o by_o it_o but_o if_o there_o be_v reason_n it_o behove_v we_o to_o submit_v ourselves_o to_o it_o furthermore_o this_o ought_v not_o too_o hinder_v we_o from_o set_v god_n majesty_n before_o our_o eye_n for_o we_o must_v not_o judge_v of_o the_o doctrine_n that_o be_v set_v forth_o unto_o we_o according_a to_o our_o own_o wit_n and_o fancy_n therefore_o two_o thing_n have_v need_v to_o be_v match_v here_o together_o the_o one_o be_v that_o we_o full_o determine_v to_o be_v ready_a to_o obey_v god_n conclude_v in_o ourselves_o that_o our_o maker_n ought_v to_o have_v all_o sovereignty_n over_o we_o and_o that_o we_o ought_v to_o be_v subject_a unto_o he_o this_o be_v the_o preparative_n that_o must_v be_v make_v aforehand_o and_o afterward_o we_o must_v enter_v into_o judgement_n that_o be_v to_o say_v we_o must_v examine_v the_o doctrine_n howbeit_o not_o with_o pride_n nor_o with_o a_o opinion_n that_o we_o be_v wise_a enough_o of_o ourselves_o but_o with_o pray_v unto_o god_n to_o govern_v we_o with_o his_o holy_a spirit_n that_o we_o may_v follow_v the_o doctrine_n which_o he_o shall_v have_v show_v we_o thus_o you_o see_v the_o two_o thing_n that_o ought_v to_o be_v match_v together_o and_o this_o match_v or_o mingle_v bring_v no_o confusion_n for_o he_o that_o be_v prepare_v to_o obey_v god_n will_v not_o leave_v for_o all_o that_o to_o open_v his_o eye_n and_o to_o consider_v how_o he_o ought_v to_o discern_v untruth_n from_o truth_n howbeit_o herewithal_o let_v we_o learn_v not_o to_o be_v so_o froward_a as_o to_o have_v no_o regard_n of_o the_o man_n that_o speak_v but_o let_v we_o consider_v that_o god_n show_v we_o great_a favour_n in_o that_o it_o please_v he_o to_o use_v his_o creature_n and_o too_o abase_v himself_o after_o that_o sort_n unto_o we_o to_o the_o end_n we_o shall_v have_v the_o more_o leisure_n to_o consider_v his_o word_n for_o if_o he_o shall_v come_v unto_o we_o in_o his_o own_o majesty_n we_o shall_v be_v undo_v but_o when_o he_o offer_v himself_o to_o we_o by_o man_n he_o apply_v himself_o to_o our_o infirmity_n too_o the_o intent_n we_o may_v the_o more_o

till_o another_o time_n now_o let_v we_o fall_v down_o before_o the_o face_n of_o our_o good_a god_n with_o acknowledgement_n of_o our_o sin_n pray_v he_o too_o make_v we_o so_o

that_o they_o may_v be_v ashamed_a of_o it_o and_o repent_v it_o shall_v feel_v in_o the_o end_n that_o they_o must_v be_v fain_o too_o come_v before_o his_o judgement_n seat_n where_o there_o shall_v

too_o enlighten_v we_o that_o we_o may_v well_o bethink_v we_o of_o our_o sin_n insomuch_o that_o although_o we_o have_v not_o know_v they_o for_o a_o time_n yet_o they_o may_v come_v too_o our_o

they_o can_v now_o endure_v that_o god_n shall_v make_v they_o ashamed_a to_o the_o end_n to_o bury_v their_o sin_n for_o ever_o howbeit_o spite_n of_o their_o tooth_n both_o angel_n man_n and_o

we_o ought_v too_o apply_v this_o text_n too_o our_o instruction_n for_o sure_o our_o lord_n threatniug_v of_o man_n with_o the_o great_a day_n be_v too_o the_o end_n they_o shall_v prevent_v it_o and_o so_o the_o remedy_n be_v ready_a for_o we_o as_o i_o have_v erst_o say_v god_n delay_v not_o the_o indite_v of_o we_o till_o we_o appear_v before_o he_o altogether_o but_o he_o execute_v his_o

the_o gospel_n be_v preach_v then_o do_v god_n execute_v a_o sovereign_a jurisdiction_n not_o proper_o upon_o man_n body_n as_o they_o be_v at_o this_o day_n but_o upon_o their_o soul_n and_o he_o will_v have_v we_o to_o be_v condemn_v there_o for_o our_o own_o welfare_n and_o therefore_o as_o i_o have_v touch_v already_o see_v that_o god_n do_v so_o much_o and_o so_o often_o warn_v we_o that_o we_o must_v in_o the_o end_n come_v to_o the_o great_a light_n let_v we_o not_o still_o shut_v our_o eye_n wilful_o nor_o witting_o be_v blind_v when_o he_o send_v we_o his_o word_n to_o discover_v

that_o there_o be_v no_o darkness_n before_o god_n for_o he_o will_v make_v we_o to_o behold_v those_o thing_n in_o his_o countenance_n and_o glorious_a majesty_n which_o we_o will_v not_o see_v here_o in_o the_o mirror_n of_o his_o word_n and_o eliu_n add_v immediate_o that_o he_o will_v not_o lay_v more_o upon_o man_n that_o they_o shall_v come_v to_o judgement_n with_o he_o this_o text_n be_v divers_o expound_v for_o some_o take_v it_o as_o though_o god_n will_v lay_v no_o more_o burden_n upon_o a_o man_n than_o he_o ought_v and_o than_o a_o man_n can_v bear_v but_o when_o the_o whole_a process_n of_o the_o text_n be_v well_o consider_v we_o shall_v find_v that_o forasmuch_o as_o this_o treatise_n concern_v god_n judgement_n eliu_n uphold_v that_o god_n afflict_v we_o not_o after_o such_o sort_n as_o we_o may_v have_v occasion_n too_o plead_v against_o he_o it_o behove_v we_o always_o too_o consider_v what_o matter_n he_o deal_v withal_o if_o a_o man_n will_v know_v

the_o whole_a sequel_n be_v refer_v then_o if_o all_o thing_n be_v consider_v the_o general_a ground_n of_o this_o text_n be_v that_o man_n may_v peradventure_o grudge_v against_o god_n but_o in_o the_o end_n they_o shall_v be_v confound_v and_o why_o for_o although_o god_n seem_v as_o now_o to_o handle_v we_o with_o great_a rigour_n yet_o when_o thing_n be_v thorough_o well_o know_v our_o

for_o all_o our_o fair_a plead_n against_o god_n our_o case_n shall_v quail_v in_o the_o end_n and_o why_o for_o it_o will_v be_v find_v that_o god_n have_v not_o handle_v we_o unindifferent_o nor_o

they_o be_v able_a too_o bear_v yet_o be_v it_o not_o more_o than_o reason_n nor_o more_o than_o they_o have_v deserve_v and_o hereby_o we_o be_v put_v in_o mind_n of_o the_o pride_n or_o rather_o of_o the_o rage_n that_o be_v in_o we_o which_o drive_v we_o too_o murmur_v against_o god_n for_o how_o do_v we_o plead_v with_o he_o it_o shall_v seem_v by_o we_o that_o there_o be_v some_o judge_n

even_o to_o show_v the_o thing_n that_o be_v tell_v we_o here_o that_o be_v to_o wit_n that_o although_o we_o have_v the_o power_n to_o city_v god_n and_o that_o he_o be_v to_o make_v answer_n so_o

we_o too_o have_v here_o some_o mark_n of_o god_n providence_n too_o the_o end_n we_o may_v give_v he_o his_o due_a glory_n and_o say_v lord_n thou_o be_v judge_n of_o the_o world_n howesoever_o

that_o all_o thing_n be_v guide_v by_o thy_o hand_n and_o thou_o haste_v sovereign_a dominion_n over_o all_o thing_n you_o see_v then_o what_o eliu_n treat_v of_o here_o and_o first_o of_o all_o he_o

of_o our_o belief_n that_o jesus_n christ_n must_v come_v too_o judge_v both_o the_o quick_a and_o the_o dead_a and_o true_o as_o i_o have_v say_v if_o all_o thing_n be_v dispose_v as_o be_v too_o be_v wish_v what_o a_o matter_n be_v it_o we_o shall_v no_o more_o look_v for_o the_o last_o resurrection_n do_v we_o then_o see_v that_o god_n execute_v not_o all_o his_o judgement_n but_o reserve_v

give_v all_o power_n too_o the_o intent_n he_o shall_v appear_v in_o his_o majesty_n too_o right_a all_o thing_n that_o be_v out_o of_o order_n and_o too_o set_v they_o at_o a_o stay_n and_o when_o we_o see_v that_o god_n punish_v some_o offence_n and_o deliver_v those_o that_o be_v he_o whether_o it_o be_v ourselves_o or_o other_o let_v the_o same_o susfise_v we_o too_o allow_v of_o his_o

wicked_a shall_v come_v too_o account_v before_o he_o for_o why_o he_o accept_v no_o person_n he_o be_v not_o a_o earthly_a judge_n that_o will_v do_v good_a justice_n by_o start_n so_o as_o if_o there_o be_v some_o fault_n commit_v it_o shall_v be_v punish_v with_o great_a rigour_n and_o in_o the_o mean_a while_n many_o other_o shall_v be_v let_v slip_n through_o some_o bribery_n or_o

too_o be_v find_v be_v but_o theevishnesse_n because_o it_o proceed_v not_o of_o a_o good_a and_o sound_n mind_n that_o hold_v out_o continual_o but_o there_o be_v no_o such_o thing_n in_o god_n he_o be_v not_o move_v with_o favour_n nor_o corrupt_v with_o reward_n what_o then_o he_o judge_v according_a too_o the_o truth_n see_v it_o be_v so_o we_o must_v needs_o conclude_v that_o when_o god_n punish_v a_o offence_n therein_o he_o show_v we_o that_o nothing_o escape_v he_o but_o that_o all_o our_o work_v must_v come_v too_o
our_o heart_n hop_v in_o our_o belly_n as_o they_o say_v and_o too_o set_v much_o store_n by_o ourselves_o but_o when_o we_o come_v unto_o god_n then_o must_v all_o of_o it_o quite_o quail_v there_o

without_o knowledge_n hereby_o god_n show_v that_o when_o we_o have_v to_o deal_v with_o his_o secret_n we_o must_v bethink_v ourselves_o well_o that_o we_o may_v proceed_v sober_o and_o with_o all_o

among_o we_o which_o can_v find_v in_o their_o heart_n to_o subdue_v god_n to_o their_o fantastical_a mind_n though_o they_o be_v the_o wise_a man_n in_o the_o world_n and_o the_o best_a see_v in_o

there_o be_v neither_o skill_n nor_o reason_n in_o they_o the_o wine_n overmayster_v they_o like_o swine_n and_o yet_o they_o will_v needs_o play_v the_o divine_n and_o control_v thing_n in_o such_o

&_o to_o beat_v it_o down_o and_o that_o be_v the_o sobriety_n whereunto_o it_o behove_v the_o faithful_a to_o be_v bring_v by_o the_o gospel_n that_o they_o may_v simple_o give_v glory_n unto_o god_n by_o confess_v themselves_o to_o know_v nothing_o then_o must_v all_o god_n child_n practise_v this_o point_n namely_o not_o to_o presume_v to_o speak_v so_o at_o random_n of_o whatsoever_o thing_n they_o think_v good_a but_o there_o be_v another_o kind_n of_o speak_v that_o be_v good_a and_o holy_a which_o they_o must_v follow_v and_o that_o be_v
to_o inquire_v of_o god_n that_o he_o may_v teach_v they_o for_o we_o see_v many_o that_o foade_n themselves_o in_o their_o beastliness_n and_o if_o a_o man_n labour_n to_o bring_v they_o to_o the_o truth_n they_o be_v loath_a too_o come_v at_o it_o they_o play_v the_o brute_n beast_n that_o they_o may_v know_v nothing_o &_o so_o they_o become_v utter_o dull_a therefore_o it_o behove_v we_o to_o

we_o even_o in_o that_o behalf_n also_o to_o have_v a_o bridle_n to_o hold_v we_o back_o for_o else_o we_o may_v ask_v god_n more_o than_o shall_v be_v requisite_a as_o many_o man_n do_v who_o will_v have_v all_o thing_n too_o pass_v through_o their_o head_n they_o will_v peradventure_o come_v unto_o god_n and_o ask_v at_o his_o hand_n â–ª_o but_o how_o with_o such_o excessive_a curiosity_n as_o their_o ask_n be_v never_o at_o a_o end_n but_o when_o we_o ask_v aught_o of_o god_n it_o must_v be_v always_o with_o this_o exception_n lord_n show_v we_o the_o thing_n which_o thou_o know_v to_o

and_o yet_o notwithstanding_o we_o see_v that_o a_o man_n shall_v be_v swell_v with_o it_o and_o the_o sweetness_n will_v go_v near_o to_o make_v he_o burst_v even_o so_o be_v it_o with_o we_o if_o

that_o he_o shall_v listen_v to_o tech_n we_o for_o when_o a_o young_a child_n come_v first_o to_o school_n if_o he_o will_v needs_o choose_v his_o book_n after_o his_o own_o like_n to_o say_v i_o
