jackson_n eminent_a divine_a of_o we_o have_v long_o ago_o observe_v that_o the_o angel_n shall_v keep_v he_o if_o he_o tread_v upon_o a_o lion_n or_o a_o adder_n as_o they_o come_v in_o his_o way_n

he_o be_v with_o the_o wild_a beast_n upon_o who_o if_o he_o have_v tread_v it_o have_v be_v no_o tempt_v of_o god_n because_o he_o have_v promise_v to_o send_v his_o angel_n to_o guard_v he_o from_o

for_o it_o be_v no_o part_n of_o his_o way_n as_o it_o be_v to_o be_v in_o the_o wilderness_n whither_o the_o spirit_n carry_v he_o nor_o be_v it_o a_o thing_n include_v in_o this_o promise_n which_o

first_o convert_v to_o christianity_n who_o hearty_o embrace_v his_o religion_n of_o the_o two_o first_o of_o these_o i_o have_v large_o discourse_v especial_o of_o the_o second_o wherein_o i_o show_v that_o such_o be_v the_o principle_n of_o his_o religion_n which_o he_o require_v we_o to_o believe_v such_o the_o precept_n which_o he_o recommend_v to_o our_o practice_n and_o such_o the_o obligation_n he_o lay_v upon_o we_o to_o believe_v these_o principle_n and_o practice_v these_o precept_n that_o they_o can_v not_o fail_v of_o this_o end_n to_o make_v peace_n among_o man_n be_v they_o serious_o consider_v and_o hearty_o entertain_v and_o that_o be_v say_v in_o scripture-language_n to_o be_v do_v by_o god_n which_o he_o use_v sufficient_a mean_n and_o give_v we_o sufficient_a power_n to_o bring_v to_o pass_v though_o the_o thing_n shall_v not_o be_v actual_o effect_v for_o god_n do_v not_o intend_v to_o keep_v we_o in_o order_n and_o peace_n like_o a_o herd_n of_o beast_n by_o pen_v we_o up_o and_o imprison_v we_o as_o we_o do_v lion_n and_o tiger_n so_o that_o it_o shall_v be_v out_o of_o our_o power_n to_o destroy_v and_o worry_v other_o but_o he_o order_n and_o

enough_o to_o verify_v what_o the_o prophet_n say_v as_o i_o can_v show_v by_o many_o unanswerable_a argument_n if_o it_o will_v not_o take_v up_o too_o much_o room_n in_o this_o discourse_n but_o
