by_o scripture_n experience_n and_o reason_n four_o apply_v the_o same_o to_o every_o one_o his_o portion_n the_o proper_a drift_n of_o the_o apostle_n here_o be_v not_o to_o tax_v the_o corinthian_n for_o seek_v their_o own_o evil_a end_n in_o evil_a action_n drift_n but_o for_o aim_v at_o themselves_o and_o their_o own_o benefit_n in_o action_n lawful_a and_o that_o appear_v in_o the_o former_a

charitable_a love_a and_o reverend_a regard_n of_o other_o than_o they_o be_v unexpedient_a unprofitable_a yea_o unlawful_a and_o must_v be_v forbear_v and_o he_o that_o have_v not_o learned_a to_o

have_v learn_v nothing_o aright_o but_o be_v apparent_o a_o man_n that_o seek_v himself_o and_o against_o who_o the_o apostle_n here_o deal_v most_o proper_o the_o manner_n of_o the_o speech_n may_v

let_v a_o man_n do_v this_o or_o let_v he_o do_v that_o but_o we_o must_v learn_v the_o apostle_n modesty_n and_o know_v that_o whatsoever_o the_o term_n seem_v to_o imply_v yet_o even_o this_o and_o other_o the_o like_a in_o this_o epistle_n be_v most_o absolute_a charge_n as_o let_v a_o man_n esteem_v of_o we_o 1._o as_o the_o minister_n of_o christ_n that_o be_v a_o man_n ought_v so_o to_o

that_o be_v they_o ought_v so_o to_o do_v the_o meaning_n then_o summary_o be_v as_o if_o he_o say_v the_o bane_n of_o all_o these_o mischief_n which_o arise_v among_o you_o be_v that_o man_n be_v to_o cleave_v to_o themselves_o and_o their_o own_o matter_n and_o disregarde_n and_o contemn_v all_o other_o and_o therefore_o i_o charge_v you_o let_v this_o self-seeking_a be_v leave_v off_o and_o

you_o but_o do_v not_o the_o apostle_n else_o wheresay_n object_n that_o he_o which_o care_v not_o for_o his_o own_o 8._o be_v worse_a than_o a_o infidel_n true_o but_o by_o own_o there_o he_o mean_v proper_o resp_n a_o man_n kindred_n and_o here_o by_o own_o he_o mean_v proper_o a_o man_n self_n second_o he_o there_o especial_o tax_v such_o as_o be_v negligent_a in_o their_o labour_n and_o calling_n and_o so_o make_v themselves_o unable_a to_o give_v relief_n and_o entertainment_n to_o such_o poor_a widow_n and_o orphan_n as_o be_v of_o their_o own_o flesh_n and_o blood_n three_o be_v it_o so_o that_o some_o man_n shall_v even_o neglect_v his_o own_o self_n his_o own_o wife_n child_n friend_n etc._n etc._n and_o give_v that_o he_o have_v to_o stranger_n that_o be_v but_o some_o rare_a vice_n in_o some_o one_o unnatural_a man_n and_o if_o this_o vice_n stay_v a_o thousand_o self-love_n slay_v ten_o thousand_o and_o this_o the_o wisdom_n of_o god_n do_v well_o foresee_v and_o

and_o thus_o the_o sense_n be_v clear_v i_o come_v to_o the_o doctrine_n all_o man_n be_v to_o to_o apt_a and_o ready_a to_o seek_v themselves_o to_o much_o 1._o and_o to_o prefer_v their_o own_o
