eye_n have_v cost_v the_o world_n dear_a the_o touch_v of_o it_o have_v cost_v the_o blood_n of_o the_o great_a monarch_n of_o many_o king_n and_o prince_n of_o the_o earth_n it_o have_v cost_v whole_a monarchy_n kingdom_n and_o state_n the_o great_a the_o rich_a the_o strong_a that_o ever_o the_o world_n see_v their_o whole_a estate_n riches_n glory_n and_o peace_n true_o we_o read_v often_o of_o the_o jealousy_n of_o god_n over_o his_o great_a name_n in_o respect_n of_o any_o pollution_n and_o profanation_n of_o it_o by_o other_o sin_n but_o we_o do_v not_o read_v of_o his_o

1.14.8.2_o as_o if_o god_n have_v a_o jealousy_n and_o a_o jealousy_n a_o twofold_a jealousy_n a_o double_a and_o a_o single_a a_o great_a and_o a_o less_o and_o the_o lesser_a jealousy_n he_o put_v on_o and_o arm_n himself_o with_o when_o he_o go_v forth_o to_o execute_v vengeance_n for_o other_o sin_n but_o when_o he_o set_v forth_o against_o the_o enemy_n of_o his_o church_n when_o he_o come_v

great_a importance_n for_o his_o glory_n yea_o i_o shall_v say_v yet_o more_o that_o when_o man_n have_v put_v forth_o their_o hand_n to_o this_o work_n i_o mean_v to_o afflict_v the_o church_n of_o

they_o never_o eat_v of_o their_o labour_n nor_o ever_o rejoice_v in_o any_o of_o these_o work_n of_o their_o hand_n seldom_o any_o of_o their_o head_n go_v down_o in_o peace_n to_o their_o grave_n a_o instance_n hereof_o we_o may_v see_v in_o the_o egyptian_n according_a to_o the_o lord_n own_o prediction_n long_o before_o how_o it_o will_v fall_v out_o know_v for_o a_o surety_n say_v the_o

four_o hundred_o year_n notwithstanding_o the_o nation_n who_o they_o shall_v ferve_fw-la will_v i_o judge_v etc._n etc._n and_o that_o god_n do_v not_o only_o foresee_v and_o foretell_v this_o that_o the_o israelite_n shall_v serve_v the_o egyptian_n and_o be_v in_o bondage_n but_o that_o himself_o have_v a_o special_a hand_n in_o it_o in_o bring_v it_o to_o pass_v it_o be_v evident_a from_o

yet_o we_o know_v how_o dear_a the_o egyptian_n pay_v for_o that_o work_n and_o service_n the_o israelite_n do_v they_o they_o have_v better_o have_v give_v double_a &_o treble_a wage_n to_o other_o
