the_o world_n but_o he_o be_v take_v away_o will_v some_o say_v before_o his_o time_n else_o i_o shall_v be_v content_a i_o shall_v answer_v this_o as_o photius_n do_v who_o accord_v with_o basil_n

no_o reason_n for_o it_o but_o this_o that_o it_o be_v the_o will_n and_o pleasure_n of_o god_n that_o he_o shall_v be_v bear_v at_o such_o a_o time_n and_o must_v god_n appoint_v the_o time_n of_o his_o birth_n and_o we_o set_v the_o time_n of_o his_o death_n do_v the_o workman_n give_v he_o a_o be_v in_o good_a time_n and_o take_v he_o to_o himself_o not_o know_v the_o fit_a season_n from_o

childhood_n be_v any_o of_o these_o out_o of_o due_a time_n why_o then_o shall_v it_o be_v out_o of_o season_n when_o he_o translate_v he_o to_o another_o life_n let_v we_o do_v therefore_o as_o david_n do_v who_o pray_v and_o weep_v as_o long_o as_o he_o can_v hope_v the_o decree_n of_o god_n be_v not_o absolute_a concern_v his_o child_n death_n but_o when_o he_o see_v that_o it_o be_v irreversible_a he_o comfort_v himself_o let_v we_o always_o say_v as_o job_n do_v the_o lord_n give_v and_o the_o lord_n take_v away_o and_o bless_v be_v the_o name_n of_o the_o lord_n and_o let_v this_o be_v further_o consider_v to_o the_o enforce_n of_o this_o truth_n that_o if_o the_o will_n of_o the_o lord_n must_v be_v bear_v than_o it_o must_v be_v do_v and_o his_o will_n be_v that_o we_o shall_v take_v all_o thing_n patient_o yea_o cheerful_o from_o his_o hand_n and_o therefore_o if_o we_o mourn_v immoderate_o what_o do_v we_o but_o only_o add_v sin_n unto_o our_o pain_n as_o there_o be_v a_o time_n to_o laugh_v so_o there_o be_v a_o time_n to_o weep_v but_o there_o be_v no_o more_o time_n to_o weep_v superfluous_o than_o there_o be_v to_o laugh_v idle_o and_o profuse_o both_o in_o the_o one_o and_o in_o the_o other_o we_o must_v be_v whole_o subject_a to_o the_o will_n of_o god_n but_o that_o will_v of_o god_n as_o i_o say_v be_v very_o wise_a in_o every_o thing_n and_o therefore_o he_o intend_v to_o turn_v our_o mourning_n into_o laughter_n and_o by_o every_o sad_a thing_n that_o do_v befall_v we_o to_o make_v our_o heart_n glad_a he_o always_o give_v something_o better_a than_o he_o take_v away_o if_o we_o will_v but_o seek_v after_o it_o and_o ofttimes_o he_o take_v one_o thing_n away_o that_o we_o may_v seek_v after_o the_o better_o but_o alas_o our_o blindness_n be_v so_o great_a that_o we_o value_v not_o that_o which_o bring_v we_o profit_n unless_o it_o be_v sweet_a to_o our_o taste_n we_o let_v our_o passion_n judge_n and_o not_o our_o reason_n and_o therefore_o we_o think_v there_o be_v no_o good_a in_o a_o bitter_a cup_n and_o no_o danger_n in_o a_o pleasant_a draught_n we_o lament_v and_o mourn_v when_o we_o ought_v to_o think_v ourselves_o great_a gainer_n and_o we_o rejoice_v and_o leap_v when_o perhaps_o a_o cross_n of_o the_o great_a burden_n have_v befall_v we_o let_v we_o stay_v a_o while_n therefore_o and_o expect_v the_o end_n of_o thing_n before_o we_o mourn_v too_o much_o and_o let_v we_o but_o desire_v to_o be_v cure_v rather_o than_o please_v to_o have_v our_o soul_n amend_v rather_o than_o our_o fancy_n humour_v and_o we_o shall_v have_v great_a reason_n to_o thank_v god_n for_o every_o thing_n that_o come_v to_o we_o do_v and_o he_o rule_v it_o better_o than_o we_o can_v do_v vi_o and_o this_o will_v lead_v i_o to_o another_o consideration_n concern_v the_o goodness_n of_o god_n in_o all_o that_o he_o do_v ask_v thyself_o therefore_o do_v not_o god_n do_v all_o thing_n for_o our_o good_a do_v we_o wish_v better_o to_o ourselves_o than_o god_n do_v have_v not_o he_o the_o great_a care_n of_o all_o his_o creature_n to_o see_v that_o it_o be_v well_o with_o they_o do_v he_o make_v they_o

then_o mankind_n must_v needs_o be_v under_o a_o great_a love_n and_o none_o of_o they_o can_v die_v by_o chance_n but_o by_o his_o direction_n and_o above_o all_o other_o man_n he_o have_v a_o singular_a care_n over_o the_o person_n of_o good_a christian_n the_o very_a hair_n of_o who_o head_n be_v all_o number_v if_o not_o so_o much_o as_o a_o hair_n can_v drop_v off_o without_o he_o much_o less_o can_v any_o body_n of_o they_o fall_v into_o their_o grave_n but_o he_o have_v a_o hand_n in_o it_o but_o still_o he_o have_v a_o more_o special_a providence_n over_o such_o christian_n as_o be_v fatherless_a and_o widow_n helpless_a and_o destitute_a of_o all_o succour_n and_o therefore_o as_o it_o be_v his_o goodness_n that_o take_v their_o friend_n away_o so_o much_o more_o will_v his_o goodness_n take_v care_n of_o they_o who_o he_o have_v leave_v none_o else_o to_o take_v care_n of_o he_o consider_v we_o not_o only_o as_o his_o child_n but_o as_o child_n place_v in_o the_o
