isaac_n and_o here_o a_o cain_n before_o a_o abel_n by_o his_o fond_a mother_n eva._n whereas_o god_n almighty_a look_v not_o at_o the_o outward_a feature_n and_o beauty_n of_o the_o body_n but_o at_o the_o inward_a accomplishment_n and_o rectitude_n of_o mind_n at_o the_o sincerity_n uprightness_n and_o integrity_n of_o heart_n and_o upon_o this_o account_n it_o be_v as_o justin_n martyr_n well_o express_v it_o that_o god_n rather_o accept_v of_o abel_n than_a cain_n offer_v scil_n because_o abel_n give_v god_n of_o the_o best_a but_o cain_n offer_v the_o very_o worst_a of_o his_o flock_n

godly_a care_n thus_o much_o for_o the_o occasion_n of_o these_o word_n the_o lord_n set_v a_o mark_n upon_o cain_n 2._o in_o the_o next_o place_n we_o be_v to_o inquire_v into_o the_o nature_n of_o
