he_o have_v set_v bound_n to_o the_o water_n even_o until_o light_v and_o darkness_n come_v to_o a_o end_n behold_v yet_o another_o work_n of_o god_n well_o worthy_a to_o be_v remember_v namely_o that_o the_o water_n bylowe_v be_v bound_v and_o that_o god_n hold_v they_o fast_o so_o as_o they_o can_v pass_v their_o bound_n and_o that_o the_o same_o endure_v and_o shall_v continual_o endure_v unto_o the_o world_n end_n he_o have_v speak_v asore_z of_o the_o water_n above_o that_o be_v of_o the_o water_n that_o god_n draw_v up_o in_o the_o cloud_n and_o be_v hold_v in_o the_o air_n till_o he_o make_v they_o pour_v down_o in_o rain_n and_o now_o it_o be_v certain_a that_o if_o god_n do_v not_o bind_v the_o sea_n and_o the_o other_o water_n all_o the_o earth_n shall_v be_v cover_v with_o they_o if_o a_o man_n ask_v the_o philosopher_n and_o such_o as_o serche_fw-fr the_o whole_a order_n of_o nature_n they_o will_v confess_v that_o if_o the_o element_n have_v their_o full_a scope_n throughout_o according_a unto_o their_o nature_n the_o earth_n shall_v be_v hide_v under_o the_o water_n and_o in_o good_a sooth_n experience_n show_v it_o to_o be_v so_o for_o why_o be_v the_o earth_n in_o the_o middle_n of_o the_o world_n but_o because_o it_o be_v firm_a and_o substantial_a by_o reason_n of_o his_o weight_n for_o the_o water_n be_v light_a and_o there_o withal_o they_o shed_v so_o as_o they_o be_v not_o so_o firm_a consequent_o the_o air_n be_v above_o the_o water_n and_o the_o fire_n be_v also_o above_o the_o air_n we_o see_v then_o that_o the_o element_n be_v distinguish_v according_a to_o their_o property_n see_v that_o the_o air_n inviron_v the_o whole_a earth_n as_o we_o see_v the_o water_n also_o aught_o to_o go_v round_o between_o they_o both_o that_o be_v to_o say_v between_o the_o earth_n and_o the_o air_n for_o that_o be_v their_o proper_a place_n and_o situation_n and_o like_v as_o the_o fire_n overspread_v all_o so_o also_o will_v the_o water_n not_o leave_v one_o foot_n of_o dry_a ground_n the_o very_a mountain_n yea_o even_o the_o high_a of_o they_o shall_v be_v cover_v under_o they_o but_o now_o we_o see_v low_a and_o hollow_a place_n abide_v dry_a and_o yet_o the_o sea_n mount_v above_o they_o and_o so_o a_o man_n may_v perceive_v the_o reason_n that_o i_o show_v before_o for_o when_o we_o consider_v what_o a_o thing_n the_o sea_n be_v special_o when_o it_o rise_v aloft_o it_o be_v a_o wonder_n that_o the_o earth_n be_v not_o overwhelm_v by_o it_o we_o see_v here_o a_o notable_a miracle_n yea_o if_o man_n do_v not_o shut_v their_o eye_n through_o their_o own_o unthankfulness_n the_o very_a heathen_a man_n as_o reason_n drive_v they_o thereunto_o acknowledge_v that_o whereas_o it_o please_v god_n too_o have_v some_o place_n void_a the_o same_o be_v too_o plant_v mankind_n in_o it_o and_o that_o he_o have_v a_o respect_n unto_o man_n when_o he_o ordain_v a_o part_n of_o the_o earth_n to_o abide_v dry_a the_o very_a infidel_n speak_v this_o and_o why_o for_o the_o truth_n be_v so_o strong_a as_o they_o be_v enforce_v to_o confess_v it_o but_o in_o the_o mean_a while_n who_o be_v he_o that_o glorify_v god_n how_o do_v we_o acknowledge_v the_o good_a that_o he_o have_v do_v we_o we_o be_v dumb_a for_o any_o praise_v of_o he_o and_o which_o worse_o be_v we_o defile_v the_o earth_n which_o he_o have_v give_v we_o to_o dwell_v upon_o he_o have_v make_v the_o water_n too_o withdraw_v themselves_o and_o he_o have_v as_o it_o be_v fetter_v they_o up_o in_o chain_n &_o although_o he_o give_v we_o room_n here_o to_o dwell_v upon_o yet_o as_o i_o say_v we_o defile_v the_o earth_n with_o our_o filthiness_n &_o sin_n very_o all_o the_o acknoweledgement_n that_o god_n receive_v at_o our_o hand_n be_v that_o no_o man_n open_v his_o mouth_n to_o glorify_v he_o and_o so_o it_o be_v not_o without_o cause_n that_o these_o thing_n be_v tell_v we_o consider_v how_o our_o wit_n be_v so_o dull_a as_o we_o think_v not_o upon_o they_o special_o we_o must_v mark_v that_o which_o shall_v be_v say_v new_a again_o according_a also_o as_o it_o be_v speak_v of_o chief_o by_o the_o prophet_n jeremy_n which_o be_v that_o the_o sea_n be_v so_o violent_a a_o thing_n as_o there_o seem_v to_o be_v no_o mean_n to_o hold_v it_o in_o &_o yet_o for_o all_o that_o it_o be_v bar_v within_o list_n the_o sea_n seem_v to_o threaten_v to_o drown_v the_o earth_n and_o it_o seem_v that_o the_o earth_n shall_v be_v swallow_v up_o at_o the_o rush_v forth_o of_o every_o wave_n consider_v then_o that_o we_o see_v so_o great_a a_o violence_n in_o the_o sea_n which_o be_v so_o terrible_a a_o thing_n as_o it_o make_v the_o hair_n to_o stand_v up_o upon_o our_o head_n must_v we_o not_o needs_o behold_v there_o the_o mighty_a and_o invincible_a hand_n of_o god_n and_o confess_v that_o his_o power_n which_o be_v speak_v of_o here_o be_v more_o than_o manifest_a so_o much_o the_o more_o than_o ought_v we_o to_o be_v touch_v to_o the_o quick_a with_o it_o but_o what_o ▪_o when_o god_n make_v the_o sea_n to_o remove_v after_o that_o sort_n we_o have_v not_o the_o wit_n to_o know_v god_n infinite_a goodness_n towards_o we_o &_o his_o like_a power_n to_o yield_v he_o thanks_n for_o it_o and_o too_o confess_v ourselves_o behold_v too_o he_o diverse_a way_n for_o our_o life_n not_o only_o for_o create_v we_o and_o put_v we_o into_o the_o world_n &_o for_o nurrish_v we_o here_o but_o special_o for_o that_o the_o earth_n be_v not_o drown_v under_o the_o water_n and_o that_o there_o be_v some_o dry_a ground_n leave_v for_o we_o to_o dwell_v upon_o behold_v i_o say_v for_o what_o purpose_n here_o be_v special_a mention_n make_v of_o the_o sea_n and_o of_o god_n withhold_v of_o it_o so_o as_o the_o water_n be_v after_o a_o sort_n shut_v up_o in_o it_o which_o thing_n no_o chain_n nor_o cord_n can_v bring_v too_o pass_v all_o the_o wild_a beast_n of_o the_o world_n may_v easy_o be_v tame_v than_o the_o sea_n and_o yet_o god_n rule_v it_o yea_o and_o overrule_v it_o after_o a_o wonderful_a and_o incomprehensible_a manner_n and_o it_o behove_v we_o to_o mark_v the_o say_n that_o job_n add_v here_o which_o be_v that_o the_o same_o shall_v continue_v till_o light_v and_o darkness_n come_v to_o a_o end_n and_o be_v meddle_v together_o this_o be_v to_o do_v we_o to_o understand_v that_o god_n do_v not_o this_o miracle_n for_o one_o day_n or_o for_o a_o short_a time_n but_o always_o so_o as_o the_o same_o have_v and_o shall_v continue_v for_o ever_o for_o although_o the_o often_o surge_n rush_v forward_o and_o backward_o yet_o notwithstanding_o god_n do_v always_o restrain_v the_o sea_n from_o win_v any_o further_a than_o it_o please_v he_o to_o threaten_v man_n withal_o to_o the_o end_n they_o shall_v learn_v to_o humble_v themselves_o and_o to_o walk_v in_o great_a wariness_n thus_o you_o see_v how_o job_n mean_v too_o augment_v the_o commendation_n of_o the_o power_n that_o be_v declare_v here_o to_o be_v in_o god_n when_o it_o be_v say_v that_o the_o water_n be_v bound_v &_o border_v till_o the_o world_n come_v to_o a_o end_n and_o till_o light_v and_o darkness_n

that_o both_o house_n and_o vineiard_n be_v overwhelm_v and_o exceed_v great_a and_o excessive_a breach_n be_v make_v by_o violence_n of_o the_o sea_n the_o answer_n thereunto_o be_v that_o yet_o notwithstanding_o god_n cease_v not_o to_o preserve_v the_o world_n in_o general_a and_o his_o suffer_v of_o the_o sea_n to_o pass_v his_o bound_n in_o that_o wise_a be_v to_o make_v we_o to_o think_v

we_o owe_v he_o go_v forme_v and_o that_o than_o follow_v the_o duty_n which_o we_o owe_v to_o our_o brethren_n the_o service_n of_o god_n therefore_o must_v be_v as_o the_o foundation_n of_o our_o

and_o power_n according_a thereunto_o it_o be_v say_v here_o that_o god_n in_o thunder_v do_v as_o it_o be_v set_v a_o seal_n upon_o man_n hand_n too_o keep_v they_o close_o namely_o too_o the_o end_n too_o know_v the_o man_n of_o his_o make_n and_o the_o beast_n also_o be_v fain_o too_o shrink_v into_o their_o den_n as_o if_o it_o be_v say_v that_o god_n draw_v man_n apart_o as_o if_o some_o body_n shall_v gather_v all_o his_o folk_n together_o a_o householder_n his_o household_n meinie_n a_o prince_n his_o subject_n or_o a_o captain_n his_o soldier_n too_o the_o intent_n to_o muster_v they_o thus_o you_o see_v the_o chief_a intent_n of_o this_o strain_v and_o the_o same_o extend_v even_o too_o the_o wild_a beast_n too_o show_v that_o even_o they_o also_o be_v in_o the_o hand_n of_o god_n and_o he_o prove_v that_o they_o be_v at_o his_o commandment_n when_o it_o please_v he_o if_o by_o nothing_o else_o yet_o ●uen_v by_o the_o thunder_n in_o that_o the_o same_o compel_v they_o too_o be_v as_o it_o be_v shut_v up_o in_o prison_n in_o very_a deed_n this_o verse_n be_v common_o translate_v that_o god_n set_v as_o it_o be_v a_o seal_n upon_o man_n hand_n to_o the_o intent_n they_o shall_v know_v their_o own_o workmanship_n as_o who_o shall_v say_v that_o all_o the_o forwardness_n which_o man_n have_v too_o apply_v themselves_o to_o one_o thing_n or_o other_o be_v by_o reason_n that_o god_n have_v print_v a_o mark_n upon_o they_o and_o that_o they_o have_v it_o not_o otherwise_o than_o by_o instruction_n give_v they_o from_o heaven_n but_o the_o text_n will_v not_o suffer_v it_o too_o be_v understand_v so_o word_n for_o word_n it_o be_v too_o the_o end_n too_o know_v the_o man_n of_o his_o make_n it_o follove_v therefore_o that_o god_n do_v then_o know_v man_n when_o he_o hold_v they_o after_o that_o manner_n as_o it_o be_v lock_v and_o shut_v up_o within_o their_o house_n too_o the_o end_n that_o this_o may_v be_v understand_v the_o better_a when_o man_n have_v liberty_n to_o go_v and_o run_v it_o seem_v that_o they_o be_v as_o it_o be_v exempt_v from_o subjection_n if_o it_o be_v fair_a weather_n one_o go_v into_o the_o field_n another_o in_o the_o

wind_n abroad_o then_o man_n be_v fain_o too_o keep_v within_o door_n therefore_o it_o be_v like_a as_o if_o a_o man_n shall_v assemble_v his_o household_n and_o say_v to_o they_o i_o will_v know_v how_o they_o behave_v themselves_o and_o what_o every_o man_n do_v and_o every_o man_n shall_v make_v i_o his_o account_n lo_o how_o god_n appoint_v man_n a_o time_n too_o be_v gather_v together_o to_o the_o end_n to_o make_v his_o muster_n and_o to_o show_v that_o all_o be_v in_o subjection_n unto_o he_o and_o this_o as_o i_o say_v extend_v even_o too_o the_o wild_a beast_n for_o when_o the_o beast_n wander_v abroad_o they_o seem_v not_o too_o be_v in_o subjection_n to_o god_n but_o when_o he_o make_v some_o tempest_n so_o as_o they_o be_v drive_v home_o too_o their_o den_n then_o must_v man_n needs_o perceive_v that_o god_n have_v a_o secret_a bridle_n to_o hold_v they_o with_o when_o he_o list_v we_o see_v then_o that_o the_o thing_n that_o be_v treat_v of_o yesterday_o be_v declare_v here_o yet_o more_o express_o that_o be_v to_o wit_n that_o the_o thunder_n be_v the_o messenger_n of_o god_n majesty_n not_o only_o in_o that_o it_o astonish_v man_n but_o also_o in_o that_o it_o compel_v they_o too_o hide_v themselves_o in_o their_o house_n which_o be_v all_o one_o as_o if_o god_n show_v that_o he_o hold_v man_n in_o his_o hand_n and_o that_o man_n go_n and_o come_v abroad_o be_v because_o he_o give_v they_o leave_v howbeit_o that_o he_o can_v hold_v they_o shut_v up_o at_o his_o pleasure_n sith_o we_o see_v this_o let_v we_o learn_v too_o yield_v obedience_n unto_o god_n at_o all_o time_n for_o if_o we_o acknowledge_v not_o the_o subjection_n that_o we_o own_o unto_o god_n but_o when_o it_o thunder_v we_o shall_v have_v profit_v but_o slender_o in_o his_o doctrine_n nevertheless_o the_o same_o be_v a_o put_n of_o we_o in_o remembrance_n too_o consider_v that_o he_o rule_v all_o our_o step_n and_o that_o we_o can_v stir_v one_o finger_n without_o his_o guide_n therefore_o let_v we_o acknowledge_v it_o and_o learn_v too_o be_v subject_a too_o he_o at_o all_o time_n and_o too_o suffer_v ourselves_o too_o be_v govern_v by_o he_o lo_o what_o we_o have_v too_o bear_v away_o in_o this_o strain_v and_o if_o we_o have_v not_o this_o advisedness_n and_o discretion_n with_o we_o behold_v the_o very_a beast_n be_v able_a too_o teach_v we_o for_o wherefore_o do_v the_o lion_n bear_n wolf_n and_o all_o other_o wild_a beast_n keep_v themselves_o in_o their_o cave_n and_o den_n but_o because_o god_n show_v himself_o too_o be_v superior_a over_o they_o therefore_o if_o we_o will_v needs_o run_v astray_o and_o not_o suffer_v god_n too_o hold_v we_o as_o it_o be_v shut_v up_o under_o his_o hand_n but_o will_v shake_v off_o the_o signet_n or_o seal_n that_o be_v speak_v of_o here_o the_o beast_n shall_v condemn_v we_o by_o their_o example_n behold_v yet_o further_o what_o we_o have_v too_o bear_v in_o mind_n that_o we_o may_v the_o better_a profit_n ourselves_o by_o the_o whole_a sentence_n the_o hebrew_n word_n that_fw-mi eliu_fw-mi use_v here_o signify_v proper_o too_o seal_v as_o when_o man_n seal_v a_o letter_n too_o the_o end_n it_o shall_v not_o be_v look_v into_o also_o a_o man_n may_v seal_v a_o cofer_z or_o a_o cupboard_n by_o set_v a_o seal_n upon_o it_o when_o he_o will_v not_o have_v any_o body_n to_o look_v into_o it_o god_n then_o use_v a_o dreadful_a kind_n of_o seal_v when_o he_o send_v thunder_n and_o tempest_n here_o be_v no_o print_n of_o wax_n with_o a_o ring_n or_o other_o material_a seal_n but_o he_o compel_v man_n too_o keep_v themselves_o as_o it_o be_v shut_v up_o so_o as_o they_o be_v after_o a_o sort_n close_a prisoner_n in_o their_o own_o house_n it_o be_v not_o with_o

thus_o you_o see_v how_o this_o similitude_n be_v set_v down_o here_o too_o the_o end_n we_o shall_v compare_v the_o incomprehensible_a majesty_n of_o god_n with_o all_o the_o thing_n that_o we_o can_v see_v among_o the_o worldly_a creature_n and_o it_o be_v say_v immediate_o that_o god_n make_v the_o tempest_n to_o come_v out_o of_o the_o beape_n of_o cloud_n and_o again_o that_o it_o be_v the_o scatter_a wind_n or_o the_o northwind_n that_o cause_v the_o cold_a too_o come_v these_o change_n here_o do_v set_v forth_o god_n mighty_a power_n the_o better_a to_o the_o end_n he_o shall_v
