do_v not_o first_o lay_v down_o those_o foundation_n truth_n of_o faith_n and_o order_n and_o though_o i_o will_v not_o ascribe_v over_o much_o to_o order_n yet_o you_o
world_n will_v be_v do_v by_o instrument_n yet_o this_o people_n do_v not_o extol_v man_n in_o this_o work_n but_o cry_v out_o great_a and_o marvellous_a be_v thy_o work_n lord_n god_n almighty_n 5_o they_o be_v a_o people_n that_o justify_v god_n in_o all_o his_o work_n and_o way_n both_o of_o deliverance_n to_o his_o people_n and_o judgement_n upon_o his_o enemy_n which_o show_v that_o they_o

a_o part_n of_o their_o song_n all_o nation_n shall_v come_v and_o worship_v before_o thou_o for_o thy_o judgement_n be_v make_v manifest_a they_o be_v not_o a_o narrow_a spirit_a people_n which_o

throughout_o all_o the_o earth_n so_o zealous_a be_v they_o for_o the_o honour_n of_o christ_n above_o their_o own_o private_a and_o personal_a interest_n these_o be_v their_o qualification_n and_o therefore_o if_o you_o consider_v where_o these_o qualification_n be_v most_o to_o be_v find_v and_o who_o they_o be_v that_o oppose_v they_o it_o may_v help_v you_o to_o find_v out_o the_o beast_n

and_o glorify_v thy_o name_n two_o thing_n there_o be_v which_o be_v very_o much_o upon_o the_o heart_n of_o this_o people_n that_o get_v victory_n over_o the_o beast_n the_o first_o be_v to_o fear_v the_o lord_n second_o to_o exalt_v the_o greatness_n of_o his_o name_n and_o this_o upon_o the_o account_n of_o his_o judgement_n be_v make_v manifest_a so_o that_o the_o observation_n i_o shall_v give_v you_o from_o the_o word_n be_v this_o obs_n that_o the_o two_o great_a lesson_n that_o god_n call_v upon_o man_n to_o learn_v by_o his_o great_a dispensation_n in_o the_o last_o day_n when_o he_o bring_v his_o judgement_n upon_o the_o wicked_a be_v to_o fear_n god_n and_o give_v glory_n to_o his_o name_n this_o may_v be_v conclude_v from_o this_o holy_a expostulation_n of_o they_o in_o

that_o i_o say_v these_o be_v the_o two_o lesson_n god_n will_v learn_v the_o son_n of_o man_n when_o he_o be_v bring_v judgement_n upon_o his_o enemy_n namely_o to_o fear_v he_o and_o glorify_v his_o

the_o hour_n of_o his_o judgement_n be_v come_v so_o that_o you_o see_v these_o be_v the_o two_o great_a lesson_n that_o god_n call_v upon_o man_n to_o learn_v when_o his_o judgement_n be_v go_v forth_o in_o the_o earth_n as_o if_o indeed_o in_o these_o two_o thing_n be_v sum_v up_o the_o whole_a duty_n of_o man_n in_o the_o last_o day_n but_o i_o shall_v brief_o lay_v before_o you_o some_o

and_o it_o may_v further_o appear_v upon_o this_o ground_n reas_n 1._o because_o these_o be_v the_o two_o lesson_n which_o be_v learn_v do_v very_o much_o serve_v to_o fit_v and_o prepare_v man_n for_o those_o great_a design_n which_o god_n have_v to_o bring_v to_o pass_v in_o the_o last_o day_n now_o those_o qualification_n god_n especial_o look_v after_o and_o require_v of_o the_o son_n of_o man_n at_o any_o time_n and_o season_n which_o may_v best_o fit_v they_o for_o the_o work_n god_n have_v to_o do_v at_o such_o a_o season_n now_o what_o qualification_n be_v there_o that_o more_o fit_o serve_v for_o the_o carry_v on_o of_o god_n great_a work_n than_o to_o fear_n god_n and_o have_v respect_n unto_o his_o name_n 1_o for_o the_o fear_n of_o god_n you_o shall_v find_v when_o god_n have_v any_o work_n to_o do_v of_o old_a this_o be_v one_o chief_a qualification_n that_o god_n look_v at_o if_o it_o be_v but_o to_o a_o civil_a office_n between_o man_n and_o man_n god_n require_v
