bury_v in_o sin_n and_o find_v never_o a_o lazarus_n to_o hear_v he_o holy_a lazarus_n thou_o can_v hear_v christ_n when_o thou_o be_v dead_a but_o well_o be_v we_o if_o we_o can_v hear_v he_o while_o we_o be_v alive_a yet_o this_o we_o may_v do_v if_o we_o will_v and_o now_o be_v the_o time_n for_o this_o week_n christ_n have_v many_o thing_n to_o say_v that_o concern_v our_o soul_n health_n yea_o word_n he_o have_v to_o speak_v which_o may_v put_v life_n into_o thou_o if_o thou_o be_v dead_a so_o thy_o heart_n be_v fit_a as_o lazarus_n his_o house_n be_v to_o receive_v he_o only_o draw_v near_o and_o bring_v thy_o will_n with_o thou_o and_o thou_o shall_v hear_v he_o by_o this_o time_n christ_n be_v on_o his_o way_n come_v to_o jerusalem_n &_o by_o the_o way_n as_o he_o come_v he_o be_v a_o hunger_a he_o be_v no_o glutton_n then_o as_o the_o jew_n accuse_v he_o and_o espy_v a_o figtree_n a_o far_o off_o he_o go_v to_o it_o yet_o not_o to_o satisfy_v hunger_n for_o the_o time_n of_o fig_n be_v not_o yet_o come_v but_o to_o give_v we_o a_o lesson_n how_o he_o hate_v spiritual_a unfruitfulnes_n when_o he_o come_v to_o it_o therefore_o and_o see_v no_o fig_n though_o by_o the_o year_n time_n it_o shall_v have_v be_v so_o he_o curse_v the_o tree_n and_o anon_o it_o wither_v if_o this_o be_v do_v to_o the_o green_a tree_n for_o s._n mark_n have_v note_v 11.13_o mar._n 11.13_o that_o it_o have_v leaf_n though_o it_o have_v no_o fruit_n what_o will_v become_v of_o we_o the_o dry_a and_o wild_a one_o and_o if_o christ_n require_v fig_n of_o it_o before_o the_o time_n may_v he_o not_o require_v fruit_n of_o we_o whensoever_o he_o come_v yea_o gather_v where_o he_o scatter_v not_o yet_o let_v no_o man_n accuse_v he_o of_o injustice_n for_o he_o sow_v once_o but_o we_o let_v it_o be_v root_v up_o he_o scatter_v once_o but_o we_o let_v the_o enemy_n gather_v it_o that_o be_v he_o give_v grace_n to_o man_n before_o the_o fall_n that_o will_v ever_o have_v be_v bear_v fruit_n and_o to_o the_o tree_n a_o perpetual_a autumn_n for_o our_o sake_n therefore_o he_o may_v call_v on_o the_o figtree_n in_o winter_n and_o not_o be_v unjust_a and_o may_v look_v for_o good_a work_n of_o the_o reprobate_n ere_o they_o receive_v grace_n but_o much_o more_o may_v he_o of_o we_o who_o boast_v to_o have_v the_o life_n of_o grace_n in_o we_o fear_v then_o and_o fail_v not_o to_o bring_v forth_o thy_o fruit_n in_o his_o season_n and_o god_n can_v and_o will_v put_v difference_n between_o thou_o &_o a_o figtree_n he_o care_v not_o for_o ox_n and_o it_o be_v no_o great_a matter_n if_o a_o figtree_n wither_v but_o his_o sight_n be_v better_a than_o to_o see_v man_n walk_v like_o tree_n he_o will_v spare_v thou_o therefore_o and_o give_v thou_o a_o example_n out_o of_o they_o only_o thou_o must_v not_o be_v a_o stock_n or_o barren_a wood_n but_o thy_o fruit_n must_v appear_v in_o his_o due_a time_n this_o use_n thou_o may_v make_v of_o this_o story_n howbeit_o our_o saviour_n make_v another_o himself_n namely_o by_o example_n of_o his_o own_o faith_n which_o have_v so_o soon_o wrought_v this_o miracle_n to_o stir_v up_o faith_n in_o his_o disciple_n especial_o in_o prayer_n but_o this_o belong_v to_o the_o next_o day_n what_o our_o saviour_n teach_v this_o day_n in_o the_o city_n the_o evangelist_n have_v not_o record_v s._n mark_n set_v down_o the_o story_n of_o our_o saviour_n whip_v the_o buyer_n and_o seller_n out_o of_o the_o temple_n as_o if_o it_o have_v happen_v this_o day_n either_o because_o they_o be_v so_o impudent_a as_o to_o come_v into_o the_o temple_n this_o day_n again_o and_o so_o our_o lord_n be_v enforce_v to_o renew_v the_o action_n or_o else_o it_o be_v the_o same_o that_o the_o other_o evangelist_n speak_v of_o but_o according_a to_o the_o custom_n elsewhere_o observe_v in_o holy_a writ_n order_n be_v not_o strict_o keep_v in_o the_o circumstance_n of_o time_n for_o the_o holy_a ghost_n mean_v to_o deliver_v a_o rule_n for_o faith_n rather_o than_o for_o chronologie_n and_o yet_o we_o shall_v not_o have_v want_v that_o neither_o but_o that_o partly_o god_n will_v sometime_o leave_v order_n unexpr_a to_o punish_v our_o disorder_n towards_o he_o partly_o because_o he_o will_v try_v our_o faith_n whether_o we_o will_v believe_v he_o on_o his_o word_n or_o condemn_v he_o when_o we_o see_v the_o least_o appearance_n of_o contrariety_n appearance_n i_o say_v for_o so_o it_o be_v only_o neither_o be_v there_o any_o dissidence_n in_o matter_n or_o circumstance_n in_o any_o place_n of_o scripture_n but_o it_o may_v be_v reconcile_v well_o then_o this_o day_n sermon_n be_v not_o print_v yet_o that_o our_o saviour_n teach_v this_o day_n i_o take_v it_o to_o be_v evident_a for_o s._n luke_n report_v that_o he_o teach_v daily_o in_o the_o temple_n also_o his_o prolix_a and_o continue_a parable_n utter_v on_o other_o day_n make_v it_o credible_a that_o he_o will_v not_o be_v silent_a upon_o this_o yet_o this_o one_o day_n labour_n among_o other_o we_o have_v not_o because_o he_o have_v leave_v we_o sufficient_a for_o our_o soul_n health_n in_o that_o we_o have_v so_o that_o we_o need_v not_o look_v for_o more_o also_o the_o less_o we_o have_v the_o less_o we_o have_v to_o learn_v again_o the_o want_n of_o that_o we_o have_v not_o may_v stir_v up_o our_o affection_n to_o that_o we_o have_v if_o thou_o have_v but_o a_o little_a ground_n and_o a_o little_a seed_n till_o it_o the_o better_a for_o thou_o have_v better_a leisure_n and_o it_o may_v yield_v thou_o a_o hundred_o for_o one_o howsoever_o it_o can_v but_o yield_v thou_o more_o than_o all_o the_o great_a field_n of_o the_o sluggard_n if_o all_o that_o christ_n speak_v &_o do_v be_v write_v i_o suppose_v say_v saint_n john_n the_o divine_a or_o the_o divine_a saint_n john_n the_o world_n can_v not_o contain_v the_o book_n that_o shall_v be_v write_v his_o meaning_n be_v either_o to_o show_v christ_n diligence_n in_o teach_v which_o be_v such_o as_o will_v have_v weary_v the_o hand_n of_o all_o writer_n to_o have_v follow_v he_o or_o else_o if_o all_o that_o christ_n speak_v have_v be_v write_v the_o comment_n upon_o his_o text_n will_v have_v be_v numberless_a either_o of_o these_o be_v easy_a to_o believe_v for_o we_o see_v daily_o that_o the_o tongue_n of_o the_o teacher_n go_v so_o quick_a as_o no_o hand_n can_v follow_v it_o but_o by_o brachygraphie_n &_o the_o comment_n upon_o our_o saviour_n word_n that_o we_o have_v be_v so_o many_o as_o the_o world_n be_v already_o full_a of_o they_o so_o many_o comment_n there_o be_v so_o many_o volume_n so_o many_o treatise_n that_o they_o require_v more_o than_o a_o man_n life_n to_o read_v they_o all_o as_o they_o shall_v be_v be_v content_a then_o and_o praise_n god_n for_o that_o which_o thou_o have_v read_v it_o lay_v it_o to_o thy_o heart_n and_o meditate_v how_o thou_o may_v practice_v it_o for_o that_o thou_o learn_v of_o christ_n be_v

that_o which_o a_o man_n have_v at_o his_o finger_n end_n that_o be_v which_o he_o have_v ready_a for_o practice_v now_o that_o this_o day_n be_v do_v if_o thou_o will_v walk_v back_o with_o thy_o

again_o and_o speak_v of_o what_o have_v happen_v to_o it_o as_o will_v appear_v better_o out_o of_o the_o next_o day_n story_n well_o then_o if_o thou_o will_v follow_v thy_o master_n thither_o the_o
