comparison_n of_o we_o that_o have_v the_o light_n of_o the_o gospel_n live_v but_o in_o darkness_n and_o in_o the_o shadow_n of_o death_n be_v a_o notable_a testimony_n against_o we_o in_o the_o day_n of_o judgement_n since_o they_o fear_v god_n more_o reverent_o serve_v he_o more_o willing_o obey_v he_o more_o dutiful_o and_o love_v he_o more_o fervent_o they_o we_o since_o they_o have_v more_o compasston_n upon_o their_o poor_a brethren_n more_o devotion_n unto_o all_o good_a work_n and_o more_o regard_n to_o their_o own_o salvation_n than_o we_o since_o they_o have_v less_o dissimulation_n less_o craft_n less_o hypocrisy_n less_o malice_n less_o covetousness_n less_o wickedness_n in_o their_o life_n than_o we_o compare_v the_o great_a zeal_n of_o our_o predecessor_n with_o the_o cold_a devotion_n that_o we_o have_v in_o these_o day_n and_o we_o shall_v be_v ashamed_a of_o ourselves_o the_o good_a deed_n which_o be_v do_v by_o they_o be_v do_v simple_o either_o for_o the_o love_n they_o bear_v to_o god_n or_o as_o they_o take_v it_o for_o the_o honour_n of_o his_o service_n and_o religion_n or_o of_o a_o compassion_n to_o their_o poor_a brethren_n or_o for_o the_o safety_n of_o their_o own_o soul_n or_o of_o a_o zeal_n they_o bear_v to_o their_o parent_n depart_v or_o for_o a_o benefit_n to_o the_o common_a wealth_n or_o to_o ease_v the_o burden_n of_o their_o successor_n or_o for_o the_o furtherance_n of_o school_n and_o learning_n or_o for_o some_o such_o other_o either_o good_a or_o wel-meaning_n intent_n but_o on_o the_o other_o side_n what_o little_a good_a soever_o we_o do_v we_o do_v it_o neither_o of_o a_o lone_a towards_o god_n nor_o of_o a_o charitable_a mind_n towards_o our_o neighbour_n nor_o of_o any_o remorse_n of_o conscience_n in_o ourselves_o nor_o yet_o of_o any_o affection_n towards_o our_o native_a country_n but_o all_o that_o the_o most_o of_o we_o do_v we_o do_v it_o either_o for_o vain_a glory_n or_o for_o please_v of_o other_o man_n humour_n or_o to_o be_v see_v and_o praise_v of_o man_n or_o to_o avoid_v the_o clamour_n of_o the_o world_n or_o by_o compulsion_n and_o commandment_n or_o for_o fear_n of_o

their_o blind_a zeal_n and_o suppose_a good_a intent_n shall_v rise_v up_o in_o the_o day_n of_o judgement_n and_o condemn_v we_o for_o the_o fruitless_a ostentation_n and_o boast_n of_o our_o faith_n

many_o prophet_n and_o preacher_n of_o god_n do_v against_o we_o in_o that_o day_n who_o daily_o &_o hourly_o and_o continual_o rebuke_v we_o for_o our_o sin_n and_o stir_v we_o up_o by_o all_o mean_n to_o amendment_n of_o our_o life_n show_v we_o that_o the_o day_n of_o the_o lord_n be_v at_o hand_n o_o jesus_n why_o shall_v we_o now_o be_v further_o from_o the_o obey_n of_o thou_o than_o when_o

and_o who_o property_n be_v to_o give_v light_n and_o salvation_n to_o all_o they_o that_o will_v receive_v the_o same_o shall_v it_o shine_v i_o say_v upon_o such_o stony_a and_o gravelie_o heart_n as_o have_v no_o power_n to_o bring_v forth_o true_a repentance_n nor_o any_o fruit_n of_o a_o godly_a life_n and_o shall_v the_o devil_n so_o prevail_v against_o they_o for_o who_o thou_o have_v

all_o these_o thing_n as_o oracle_n send_v before_o and_o we_o assure_o look_v for_o thy_o own_o self_n in_o person_n to_o follow_v wherefore_o you_o my_o brethren_n of_o the_o church_n of_o england_n for_o who_o cause_n special_o i_o have_v write_v this_o second_o warning_n or_o sound_v of_o the_o last_o trumpet_n bear_v in_o mind_n all_o these_o thing_n that_o i_o have_v declare_v unto_o you_o

infinitlie_o and_o in_o sign_n and_o token_n more_o wonderful_o than_o any_o nation_n in_o the_o world_n again_o consider_v with_o yourselves_o how_o all_o these_o grace_n and_o mercy_n have_v be_v requite_v of_o you_o whether_o there_o be_v any_o nation_n of_o the_o world_n more_o unthankful_a for_o god_n benefit_n more_o forgetful_a of_o his_o promise_n more_o disobedient_a to_o his_o

more_o cold_a in_o devotion_n more_o rash_a in_o enterprise_n more_o restless_a in_o vanity_n more_o greedy_a in_o get_v more_o careless_a in_o spend_v more_o slow_a to_o virtue_n and_o more_o forward_o to_o vice_n and_o final_o more_o desperate_a to_o all_o kind_n of_o mischief_n then_o common_o the_o people_n of_o this_o kingdom_n be_v wherefore_o if_o the_o mercy_n of_o god_n do_v not_o

that_o you_o live_v unplagued_a of_o your_o enemy_n be_v of_o his_o mercy_n that_o you_o lose_v not_o his_o gospel_n and_o true_a religion_n be_v of_o his_o mercy_n that_o we_o see_v our_o elizabeth_n
