to_o work_v in_o all_o manner_n of_o workmanship_a and_o behold_v i_o have_v join_v with_o he_o aholiab_n the_o son_n of_o ahisamah_n of_o the_o tribe_n of_o dan_n and_o in_o the_o heart_n of_o all_o that_o be_v wise_a heart_a have_v i_o put_v wisdom_n to_o make_v all_o that_o i_o have_v command_v thou_o by_o the_o which_o place_n we_o may_v see_v that_o wisdom_n and_o skill_n to_o do_v such_o work_n be_v the_o gift_n of_o god_n and_o the_o wisdom_n of_o god_n do_v not_o take_v away_o or_o overthrow_v the_o wisdom_n of_o the_o world_n in_o science_n government_n or_o trade_n but_o rather_o it_o do_v help_v and_o cure_v the_o error_n and_o fault_n that_o be_v in_o humane_a wisdom_n the_o preservation_n of_o kingdom_n and_o city_n consist_v in_o peace_n justice_n and_o mercy_n but_o all_o these_o be_v commend_v and_o command_v in_o the_o gospel_n all_o civil_a virtue_n as_o chastity_n temperance_n justice_n fortitude_n be_v make_v better_a by_o the_o gospel_n what_o be_v the_o

do_v reprove_v contemn_v and_o overthrow_v all_o such_o vice_n there_o be_v some_o thing_n common_a betwixt_o humane_a and_o divine_a wisdom_n as_o in_o both_o there_o be_v proof_n from_o cause_n and_o effect_n thing_n necessary_a and_o thing_n profitable_a be_v distinguish_v argument_n be_v dispose_v in_o just_a order_n and_o in_o fit_a word_n in_o both_o there_o be_v definition_n division_n collection_n but_o yet_o great_a difference_n between_o humane_a and_o divine_a wisdom_n the_o one_o do_v follow_v the_o light_n of_o nature_n the_o other_o be_v guide_v by_o the_o spirit_n and_o by_o faith_n the_o one_o do_v draw_v her_o principle_n from_o the_o sense_n from_o observation_n and_o experience_n the_o other_o do_v altogether_o whole_o and_o only_o rest_v upon_o the_o word_n of_o

of_o man_n and_o the_o wrath_n of_o god_n against_o they_o offering_n christ_n and_o his_o benefit_n to_o all_o believe_v and_o repent_v sinner_n and_o final_o urge_v amendment_n and_o newness_n of_o life_n this_o be_v the_o sum_n and_o course_n of_o god_n wisdom_n without_o alteration_n again_o the_o wisdom_n of_o the_o world_n do_v devise_n &_o utter_v eloquent_a speech_n and_o fine_a sentence_n the_o wisdom_n of_o god_n do_v use_v fit_a grave_a simple_a &_o plain_a word_n the_o other_o do_v boast_v itself_o &_o do_v lift_v up_o the_o mind_n of_o man_n this_o do_v humble_a and_o cast_v they_o down_o now_o see_v there_o be_v so_o many_o and_o great_a difference_n how_o can_v they_o agree_v together_o and_o ever_o be_v reconcile_v and_o therefore_o the_o wisdom_n of_o god_n account_v the_o

many_o commodity_n in_o this_o world_n but_o it_o do_v nothing_o profit_n to_o salvation_n it_o must_v not_o meddle_v with_o god_n wisdom_n to_o check_v or_o control_n it_o but_o rather_o submit_v herself_o to_o it_o as_o a_o servant_n and_o handmaid_n and_o to_o keeepe_v herself_o within_o her_o own_o compass_n and_o limit_n and_o yet_o this_o wisdom_n have_v her_o worthiness_n and_o excellency_n it_o be_v more_o excellent_a than_o riches_n pleasure_n or_o strength_n for_o what_o be_v all_o these_o without_o wisdom_n and_o therefore_o the_o wise_a man_n say_v that_o wisdom_n be_v good_a with_o a_o inheritance_n and_o excellent_a to_o they_o that_o see_v the_o sun_n his_o meaning_n be_v that_o heritage_n good_n &_o land_n be_v the_o gift_n of_o god_n but_o wisdom_n be_v far_o more_o excellent_a and_o may_v be_v without_o they_o but_o riches_n or_o pleasure_n without_o wisdom_n will_v do_v we_o more_o hurt_n than_o good_a again_o he_o say_v wisdom_n shall_v strengthen_v the_o wise_a man_n more_o than_o ten_o mighty_a prince_n that_o be_v in_o the_o city_n yet_o most_o do_v glory_n in_o riches_n and_o hunt_v after_o pleasure_n and_o few_o regard_n humane_a wisdom_n and_o learning_n more_o be_v foolish_a simple_a and_o sottish_a that_o way_n then_o wise_a great_a good_a and_o profit_n come_v by_o the_o knowledge_n of_o natural_a thing_n for_o they_o do_v

his_o handy_a work_n but_o this_o knowledge_n be_v sufficient_a to_o make_v man_n excusable_a but_o not_o sufficient_a to_o salvation_n but_o all_o civil_a &_o humane_a wisdom_n be_v but_o a_o shadow_n in_o respect_n of_o true_a wisdom_n which_o do_v excel_v all_o other_o as_o the_o heaven_n do_v excel_v the_o earth_n this_o come_v and_o proceed_v from_o the_o holy_a of_o holy_a as_o it_o

that_o solomon_n be_v a_o prophet_n &_o full_a of_o divine_a wisdom_n his_o work_n extant_a among_o we_o do_v prove_v it_o i_o mean_v his_o three_o worthy_a book_n of_o the_o proverbe_n canticle_n &_o
