shall_v not_o fear_v though_o war_n rise_v against_o i_o in_o this_o will_v i_o be_v confident_a here_o be_v great_a courage_n for_o the_o time_n to_o come_v experience_n breed_v hope_n and_o confidence_n david_n be_v not_o so_o courageous_a a_o man_n of_o himself_o but_o upon_o experience_n of_o god_n former_a comfort_n and_o assistance_n his_o faith_n break_v as_o fire_v out_o of_o the_o

god_n goodness_n that_o i_o will_v not_o fear_v he_o that_o see_v god_n by_o a_o spirit_n of_o faith_n in_o his_o greatness_n and_o power_n he_o see_v all_o other_o thing_n below_o as_o nothing_o therefore_o he_o say_v here_o he_o care_v not_o for_o the_o time_n to_o come_v for_o any_o opposition_n no_o not_o of_o a_o army_n if_o god_n be_v with_o we_o who_o can_v be_v against_o we_o he_o see_v god_n in_o his_o power_n and_o then_o look_v from_o god_n to_o the_o creature_n alas_o who_o be_v he_o as_o michaia_n when_o he_o have_v see_v god_n sit_v upon_o his_o throne_n what_o be_v

etc._n thus_o you_o have_v his_o comfort_n in_o the_o double_a branch_n of_o it_o his_o courage_n also_o and_o his_o confidence_n for_o the_o time_n to_o come_v what_o be_v his_o care_n that_o be_v the_o next_o i_o will_v not_o care_n analyse_v the_o psalm_n far_o than_o the_o text_n after_o his_o comfort_n in_o the_o lord_n and_o in_o the_o confusion_n of_o his_o enemy_n and_o his_o courage_n for_o the_o time_n to_o come_v he_o set_v down_o his_o care_n one_o thing_n have_v i_o desire_v of_o the_o lord_n and_o that_o will_v i_o seek_v after_o that_o i_o may_v dwell_v in_o the_o house_n of_o the_o lord_n all_o the_o day_n of_o my_o life_n etc._n etc._n this_o be_v his_o care_n he_o have_v so_o sweet_a experience_n of_o the_o goodness_n and_o power_n of_o god_n be_v light_n and_o

great_a congregation_n in_o the_o church_n of_o god_n among_o many_o other_o therefore_o he_o say_v one_o thing_n have_v i_o desire_v of_o the_o lord_n and_o that_o will_v i_o seek_v after_o still_o that_o i_o may_v dwell_v in_o the_o house_n of_o the_o lord_n all_o the_o day_n of_o my_o life_n now_o in_o the_o word_n of_o the_o text_n that_o i_o have_v read_v text._n there_o be_v contain_v the_o
