pride_n it_o seem_v especial_o and_o that_o probable_o for_o these_o reason_n first_o because_o it_o be_v a_o mother_n sin_n second_o because_o a_o notorious_a sin_n three_o because_o the_o most_o heinous_a sin_n four_o because_o a_o manifold_a sin_n 1_o it_o be_v a_o mother_n sin_n in_o that_o all_o other_o offence_n arise_v out_o of_o it_o as_o branch_n from_o their_o root_n or_o stream_n of_o water_n from_o their_o fountain_n and_o that_o two_o manner_n of_o way_n direct_o and_o indirect_o direct_o all_o sin_n spring_n from_o pride_n because_o they_o all_o aim_n at_o the_o same_o end_n at_o which_o pride_n do_v man_n own_o excellency_n and_o indirect_o all_o spring_n from_o pride_n because_o she_o contemn_v and_o trample_v under_o foot_n that_o divine_a law_n in_o which_o be_v the_o forbid_v of_o they_o all_o 2_o it_o be_v a_o notorious_a sin_n because_o it_o so_o impudent_o declare_v itself_o for_o whereas_o other_o offence_n cover_v their_o face_n in_o darkness_n fly_v the_o presence_n of_o god_n desire_v to_o be_v hide_v from_o his_o eye_n pride_n be_v brazen_a face_v walk_v up_o and_o down_o the_o open_a street_n take_v pleasure_n in_o the_o light_n and_o so_o jet_n and_o strut_v it_o before_o the_o almighty_a as_o if_o she_o mean_v to_o outbrave_v he_o to_o his_o face_n 3_o it_o be_v the_o most_o heinous_a sin_n in_o that_o whereas_o in_o every_o offence_n there_o be_v a_o aversion_n from_o the_o creator_n as_o the_o formality_n of_o it_o and_o a_o conversion_n to_o the_o creature_n as_o the_o materiality_n though_o in_o respect_n of_o the_o latter_a pride_n be_v not_o the_o great_a sin_n because_o height_n the_o proud_a man_n aim_n carry_v not_o the_o great_a repugnancy_n unto_o moral_a good_a yet_o in_o respect_n of_o the_o former_a to_o wit_n the_o aversion_n from_o the_o creator_n it_o be_v for_o whereas_o in_o other_o sin_n a_o man_n turn_v from_o god_n either_o through_o ignorance_n or_o infirmity_n or_o desire_v of_o some_o other_o good_a or_o the_o like_a pride_n have_v its_o aversion_n from_o he_o only_o because_o it_o will_v not_o be_v subject_a to_o he_o and_o to_o his_o rule_n 4_o last_o it_o be_v peccatum_fw-la multiplex_fw-la a_o manifold_a sin_n because_o whereas_o other_o vice_n set_v only_o upon_o those_o virtue_n by_o which_o themselves_o be_v destroy_v luxury_n batter_v chastity_n anger_n patience_n and_o the_o like_a pride_n raise_v itself_o not_o against_o any_o one_o but_o against_o all_o and_o as_o a_o general_a and_o pestilent_a disease_n corrupt_v they_o all_o these_o be_v the_o devilish_a quality_n of_o damn_a pride_n and_o therefore_o where_o ever_o you_o find_v it_o in_o person_n or_o in_o place_n you_o may_v attribute_v their_o ruin_n to_o nothing_o more_o if_o moab_n be_v as_o sodom_n and_o the_o child_n of_o ammon_n as_o gomorrah_n even_o a_o breed_n of_o nettle_n and_o saltpit_n and_o a_o perpetual_a desolation_n that_o they_o have_v for_o their_o pride_n zeph._n 2._o 10._o if_o edom_n be_v bring_v down_o to_o the_o ground_n it_o be_v because_o she_o have_v exalt_v herself_o as_o the_o eagle_n and_o make_v her_o nest_n among_o the_o star_n obed._n 4._o and_o if_o capernaum_n be_v thrust_v low_o into_o hell_n it_o be_v because_o she_o be_v lift_v up_o high_a unto_o heaven_n math._n 11._o 23._o it_o be_v this_o pride_n be_v lucifer_n sin_n the_o son_n of_o the_o morning_n which_o make_v he_o from_o prime_a of_o angel_n become_v prince_n of_o devil_n and_o therefore_o he_o never_o doubt_v if_o he_o once_o can_v but_o work_v in_o adam_n and_o eve_n that_o proud_a conceit_n that_o they_o shall_v be_v like_o god_n but_o it_o will_v be_v enough_o to_o make_v they_o die_v like_o man_n while_o pride_n be_v climb_v up_o it_o never_o think_v of_o come_v down_o therefore_o satan_n work_v that_o sin_n in_o man_n of_o all_o other_o that_o his_o ruin_n as_o it_o be_v certain_a so_o it_o may_v be_v sudden_a and_o seize_v upon_o he_o at_o unaware_o he_o know_v they_o that_o swell_v with_o arrogance_n must_v burst_v at_o last_o and_o when_o they_o least_o think_v of_o it_o and_o that_o they_o who_o ambitious_o climb_v over_o other_o man_n head_n will_v soon_o fall_v and_o break_v their_o own_o neck_n to_o this_o end_n he_o put_v a_o man_n into_o a_o vain_a of_o exalt_v himself_o as_o haman_n or_o of_o brag_v as_o nabuchadnezzar_n or_o of_o revel_v as_o belshazzar_n that_o present_o even_o amid_o his_o pride_n and_o jolsitie_n he_o may_v feel_v some_o strange_a downfall_n and_o feel_v it_o he_o shall_v little_a hope_n be_v there_o of_o escape_v for_o if_o there_o be_v any_o weapon_n in_o the_o armoury_n of_o heaven_n any_o creature_n at_o god_n command_n on_o earth_n any_o viol_n of_o wrath_n to_o be_v pour_v forth_o then_o look_v to_o thy_o crown_n pride_n for_o thou_o shall_v be_v sure_a to_o have_v thy_o hairy_a scalp_n smite_v though_o a_o man_n be_v as_o the_o signet_n of_o god_n own_o right_a hand_n as_o a_o frontlet_n between_o his_o eye_n as_o a_o chain_n about_o his_o neck_n yet_o thence_o and_o thence_o will_v he_o soon_o pluck_v he_o if_o he_o once_o begin_v to_o be_v proud_a and_o with_o ephraim_n to_o kick_v with_o the_o heel_n pride_n shall_v have_v a_o fall_n well_o therefore_o may_v it_o be_v paint_v with_o a_o wry_a neck_n not_o so_o much_o scornful_a to_o look_v on_o man_n over_o the_o shoulder_n as_o indeed_o to_o see_v how_o fast_o shame_n and_o destruction_n come_v after_o now_o if_o such_o be_v the_o danger_n of_o pride_n and_o if_o it_o so_o move_v god_n to_o inflict_v punishment_n on_o

that_o they_o will_v rather_o endure_v three_o disorder_n in_o their_o life_n than_o one_o in_o their_o lock_n how_o come_v it_o that_o they_o so_o ruffle_v it_o in_o their_o silk_n and_o velvet_n
