several_a sort_n of_o wax_n and_o how_o in_o what_o manner_n you_o shall_v wax_v your_o winter_a boot_n give_v i_o leave_v out_o of_o the_o former_a part_n of_o the_o text_n to_o raise_v this_o doctrine_n that_o bad_a time_n require_v good_a boot_n i_o say_v bad_a time_n require_v good_a boot_n because_o the_o time_n be_v bad_a and_o the_o winter_n etc._n etc._n therefore_o etc._n etc._n i_o shall_v explain_v myself_o to_o you_o brethren_n brief_o thus_o i_o say_v bad_a time_n require_v good_a boot_n for_o very_o belove_v the_o time_n be_v bad_a very_o bad_a and_o be_v like_o every_o day_n for_o aught_o i_o see_v to_o grow_v worse_a and_o worse_o so_o as_o i_o fear_v we_o must_v all_o of_o we_o ever_o long_o be_v force_v to_o fly_v for_o our_o religion_n now_o belove_v whither_o shall_v we_o fly_v marry_o it_o be_v a_o question_n worth_n your_o answer_v but_o i_o doubt_v there_o be_v few_o or_o none_o here_o that_o know_v how_o to_o resolve_v i_o in_o it_o for_o very_o i_o be_o as_o yet_o to_o seek_v myself_o where_o to_o run_v or_o hide_v my_o head_n shall_v the_o malignant_a party_n prevail_v but_o perhaps_o some_o will_v cry_v out_o and_o say_v we_o will_v fly_v to_o new_a england_n another_o he_o be_v for_o geneva_n another_o he_o be_v for_o a_o near_a place_n then_o both_o these_o he_o will_v away_o to_o amsterdam_n true_o belove_v i_o must_v confess_v i_o can_v but_o approve_v of_o this_o place_n for_o the_o best_a be_v it_o be_v not_o only_o the_o near_a but_o the_o safe_a and_o have_v ever_o in_o former_a time_n be_v find_v to_o be_v the_o only_a nurse_n and_o sanctuary_n for_o all_o such_o as_o be_v like_o they_o despiser_n of_o royal_a government_n and_o self-form_n of_o prayer_n but_o here_o will_v one_o object_n and_o say_v be_v not_o this_o a_o island_n wherein_o we_o now_o live_v i_o have_v almost_o say_v wherein_o we_o now_o dwell_v but_o alas_o if_o the_o time_n change_v here_o will_v be_v no_o habitation_n for_o we_o and_o be_v not_o this_o island_n encompass_v round_o with_o a_o great_a sea_n will_v not_o all_o our_o ship_n then_o be_v take_v from_o we_o how_o then_o shall_v we_o get_v over_o to_o amsterdam_n or_o what_o good_a then_o will_v our_o wax_a boot_n do_v we_o belove_a this_o weak_a objection_n be_v easy_o answer_v thus_o it_o be_v true_a that_o england_n be_v a_o island_n encompass_v with_o the_o sea_n it_o be_v true_a there_o will_v be_v no_o travel_v out_o of_o it_o by_o land_n and_o it_o will_v likely_o prove_v as_o true_a if_o the_o wicked_a prevail_v that_o our_o navy_n will_v be_v take_v from_o we_o but_o o_o thou_o inconsiderate_a fool_n whosoever_o thou_o be_v that_o raise_v this_o idle_a objection_n have_v thou_o not_o the_o more_o need_n of_o wax_a boot_n to_o pass_v through_o this_o sea_n have_v thou_o not_o great_a and_o rough_a water_n to_o wade_v over_o before_o thou_o can_v arrive_v at_o thy_o journey_n end_v now_o if_o thy_o boot_n be_v long_o enough_o which_o as_o i_o tell_v you_o before_o you_o must_v be_v sure_a to_o observe_v before_o you_o buy_v they_o for_o this_o purpose_n and_o the_o seam_n strong_a and_o well-waxed_a so_o as_o they_o will_v hold_v out_o water_n which_o you_o ought_v first_o to_o make_v trial_n of_o by_o wade_v in_o they_o over_o the_o thames_n from_o the_o parliament-stair_n to_o lambeth_n or_o from_o white_a hall_n to_o stangate_n for_o one_o of_o these_o way_n we_o must_v all_o fly_v if_o the_o cavalier_n prevail_v you_o need_v not_o be_v afraid_a afterward_o to_o go_v over_o with_o they_o to_o any_o part_n beyond_o the_o sea_n so_o as_o methinks_v this_o also_o shall_v be_v another_o strong_a motive_n to_o persuade_v we_o to_o buy_v strong_a and_o long_o wax_v boot_n but_o here_o some_o incredulous_a and_o fearful_a brother_n will_v make_v a_o scruple_n and_o say_v shall_v we_o grant_v you_o that_o it_o may_v be_v possible_a for_o we_o to_o pass_v over_o the_o sea_n in_o wax_a boot_n yet_o how_o shall_v we_o do_v now_o the_o winter_n be_v come_v on_o the_o day_n short_a but_o the_o night_n and_o our_o journey_n very_o dark_a and_o long_a i_o say_v how_o shall_v we_o do_v in_o these_o dismal_a and_o obscure_a night_n to_o find_v our_o way_n through_o so_o pathless_a and_o uncertain_a a_o element_n as_o the_o sea_n be_v o_o belove_a be_v not_o dismay_v be_v not_o cast_v down_o with_o fear_n take_v you_o no_o care_n for_o that_o have_v we_o not_o a_o good_a and_o glorious_a general_n go_v before_o we_o and_o with_o the_o beam_n of_o his_o bright_a shine_a countenance_n will_v like_o the_o sun_n disperse_v those_o dark_a shade_n that_o do_v cover_v the_o water_n he_o be_v our_o leader_n our_o guide_n by_o day_n and_o our_o lamp_n by_o night_n who_o have_v carry_v a_o live_a fire_n in_o the_o lantern_n of_o his_o beak_n which_o neither_o the_o high_a wind_n can_v put_v out_o nor_o the_o great_a wave_n extinguish_v because_o it_o will_v ever_o continue_v the_o same_o so_o long_o as_o the_o splendour_n of_o it_o endure_v but_o we_o will_v leave_v general_n and_o come_v to_o particular_n for_o i_o fear_v i_o have_v be_v too_o tedious_a in_o illustrate_v this_o doctrine_n wherefore_o i_o will_v only_o pass_v to_o a_o use_n or_o two_o and_o so_o conclude_v the_o first_o be_v a_o use_n of_o consolation_n or_o comfort_n be_v it_o so_o that_o wax_v boot_n will_v preserve_v we_o from_o the_o cold_a be_v it_o so_o that_o with_o wax_a boot_n we_o may_v pass_v through_o thick_a and_o thin_a nay_o through_o sea_n of_o trouble_n why_o what_o a_o great_a comfort_n and_o consolation_n be_v it_o for_o all_o those_o who_o have_v occasion_n to_o travail_v through_o bad_a and_o sad_a way_n to_o be_v provide_v of_o waxen_a boot_n belove_a there_o be_v as_o i_o show_v you_o before_o your_o summer_n and_o your_o winter_n boot_v in_o the_o one_o you_o may_v travail_v reasonable_o well_o all_o the_o year_n long_o provide_v your_o way_n and_o the_o journey_n be_v according_o as_o for_o example_n if_o you_o have_v occasion_n to_o ride_v your_o newmarket_n way_n your_o bansted_n down_o way_n your_o tiptry_n heath_n way_n or_o your_o salisbury_n plain_a way_n than_o these_o summer_n boot_n will_v carry_v you_o through_o these_o will_v preserve_v you_o well_o enough_o provide_v no_o rain_n from_o above_o or_o dirt_n mire_n and_o water_n from_o beneath_o do_v not_o offend_v or_o molest_v you_o but_o shall_v you_o have_v occasion_n in_o the_o winter_n time_n to_o travel_v your_o essex_n way_n your_o dunmow_n way_n your_o high_a suffolk_n farningham_n castle_n way_n or_o those_o most_o abominable_a dirty_a miry_a and_o watery_a wishbeech_n or_o else_n fenny_a way_n o_o in_o what_o a_o fine_a case_n will_v your_o summer_n boot_v be_v when_o they_o have_v be_v well_o wash_v in_o those_o filthy_a way_n how_o will_v they_o shrink_v together_o like_o parchment_n against_o the_o fire_n therefore_o buy_v you_o wax_v boot_n and_o this_o put_v i_o in_o mind_n of_o a_o merry_a but_o a_o real_a story_n that_o i_o have_v hear_v from_o a_o credible_a person_n who_o i_o be_o confident_a will_v not_o tell_v a_o untruth_n of_o a_o certain_a young_a gentleman_n live_v not_o far_o from_o newmarket_n who_o be_v a_o suitor_n to_o a_o fair_a lady_n dwell_v at_o cholchester_n in_o the_o county_n of_o essex_n now_o this_o young_a gallant_a have_v never_o before_o travel_v five_o mile_n from_o his_o father_n house_n imagine_v the_o same_o the_o citizen_n wife_n do_v who_o have_v never_o in_o her_o life_n time_n be_v out_o of_o london_n will_v needs_o persuade_v her_o husband_n that_o
