day_n it_o will_v have_v trouble_v they_o to_o watch_v so_o long_o for_o a_o good_a cause_n but_o it_o be_v fit_a that_o the_o work_n of_o darkness_n shall_v be_v do_v in_o draknes_n &_o therefore_o christ_n say_v this_o be_v the_o hour_n of_o darkness_n 53._o the_o hour_n of_o darkness_n and_o the_o power_n of_o darkness_n and_o the_o work_n of_o darkness_n meet_v together_o when_o they_o shall_v rest_v malice_n will_v not_o suffer_v they_o to_o rest_n but_o they_o become_v like_o owl_n which_o watch_v in_o the_o night_n and_o can_v sleep_v here_o be_v fulfil_v salomon_n say_v 36._o they_o can_v sleep_v before_o they_o have_v do_v evil_a so_o eager_a we_o be_v upon_o revenge_n more_o than_o any_o thing_n else_o they_o say_v that_o he_o can_v stay_v which_o ride_v upon_o the_o devil_n for_o malice_n draw_v he_o and_o fury_n spur_v he_o therefore_o zacheus_n go_v not_o so_o hasty_o to_o receive_v christ_n as_o his_o enemy_n haste_n to_o destroy_v he_o nay_o rather_o i_o may_v say_v to_o destroy_v themselves_o for_o as_o they_o pray_v at_o christ_n death_n so_o it_o come_v upon_o they_o they_o say_v his_o blood_n be_v upon_o we_o and_o upon_o our_o child_n 29_o so_o his_o blood_n be_v upon_o they_o and_o upon_o their_o child_n which_o have_v be_v vagabond_n over_o the_o earth_n ever_o since_o and_o have_v no_o country_n of_o their_o own_o for_o if_o they_o be_v curse_v which_o do_v the_o lord_n business_n negligent_o they_o must_v be_v curse_v too_o which_o do_v the_o devil_n business_n diligent_o 16._o if_o man_n be_v so_o hasty_a in_o execute_v justice_n as_o they_o be_v in_o execute_v malice_n so_o many_o man_n shall_v not_o be_v undo_v by_o suit_n of_o law_n for_o in_o one_o day_n they_o can_v apprehend_v &_o accuse_v and_o examine_v and_o condemn_v and_o execute_v he_o which_o be_v innocent_a but_o he_o which_o be_v just_a can_v be_v quit_v in_o one_o term_n nor_o two_o nay_o if_o he_o have_v right_a in_o a_o year_n it_o be_v count_v quick_a dispatch_n and_o he_o be_v glad_a that_o he_o meet_v with_o such_o a_o speedy_a lawyer_n how_o then_o when_o they_o take_v a_o bad_a cause_n in_o hand_n and_o prolong_v it_o too_o which_o keep_v their_o client_n in_o suspense_n from_o day_n to_o day_n and_o from_o week_n to_o week_n in_o great_a charge_n and_o sin_n together_o i_o will_v to_o god_n that_o some_o do_v not_o sit_v in_o counsel_n against_o good_a christian_n as_o these_o priest_n do_v against_o christ_n but_o god_n in_o his_o mercy_n do_v daily_o confound_v and_o bring_v to_o nothing_o the_o accurse_a counsel_n of_o the_o wicked_a antichrist_n and_o all_o his_o rebellious_a confederate_n so_o when_o the_o wicked_a take_v counsel_n together_o wickedness_n be_v the_o end_n of_o their_o counsel_n for_o there_o be_v nothing_o worse_a to_o the_o ungodlie_a than_o to_o meet_v together_o for_o before_o they_o meet_v their_o wickedness_n be_v a_o little_a hide_v like_o the_o poison_n in_o a_o serpent_n but_o when_o they_o meet_v together_o one_o set_v on_o another_o and_o the_o poison_n break_v forth_o into_o vile_a speech_n and_o detestable_a work_n and_o ungodly_a practice_n as_o we_o see_v in_o tavern_n and_o such_o like_a assembly_n as_o this_o for_o now_o they_o be_v meet_v together_o they_o have_v conspire_v among_o themselves_o to_o accuse_v unto_o the_o governor_n the_o most_o innocent_a man_n in_o the_o world_n as_o if_o he_o be_v the_o worst_a man_n live_v they_o abuse_v he_o and_o mock_v he_o and_o revile_v he_o and_o buffet_v he_o before_o they_o bring_v he_o to_o the_o governor_n which_o show_v that_o they_o will_v have_v kill_v he_o too_o if_o they_o dare_v without_o the_o governor_n but_o sin_n be_v crafty_a and_o therefore_o they_o observe_v the_o order_n of_o law_n and_o form_n of_o judgement_n lest_o they_o shall_v be_v take_v in_o the_o snare_n which_o they_o make_v for_o he_o first_o because_o pilate_n have_v the_o authority_n over_o judgement_n of_o death_n and_o not_o they_o therefore_o they_o be_v enforce_v to_o seek_v unto_o his_o judgement_n seat_n to_o save_v themselves_o from_o blame_n and_o to_o be_v deliver_v out_o of_o trouble_n if_o they_o do_v usurp_v any_o thing_n upon_o the_o magistrate_n office_n then_o because_o they_o may_v not_o run_v unto_o the_o governor_n before_o day_n without_o suspicion_n of_o tumult_n they_o stay_v until_o it_o be_v morning_n but_o so_o soon_o as_o they_o can_v come_v they_o come_v post_o have_v for_o the_o sun_n do_v no_o soon_o peep_v but_o even_o at_o the_o very_a break_n of_o day_n they_o be_v all_o ready_a to_o flock_v unto_o the_o judge_n against_o he_o this_o they_o do_v without_o knowledge_n but_o god_n direct_v every_o thing_n unto_o a_o right_a end_n for_o it_o be_v meet_v that_o the_o son_n of_o god_n shall_v be_v clear_v in_o a_o solemn_a manner_n by_o a_o earthly_a judge_n to_o show_v how_o we_o be_v clear_v by_o the_o heavenly_a judge_n and_o therefore_o as_o it_o appear_v in_o the_o seven_o and_o twenty_o chapter_n and_o four_o and_o twenty_o verse_n of_o saint_n mathewes_n gospel_n pilate_n say_v that_o he_o find_v no_o evil_n in_o he_o before_o he_o give_v sentence_n against_o he_o which_o show_v that_o he_o die_v not_o for_o his_o own_o sin_n but_o for_o our_o sin_n and_o therefore_o though_o they_o go_v to_o the_o judge_n to_o save_v themselves_o from_o blame_n yet_o god_n send_v they_o to_o the_o judge_n that_o his_o word_n may_v be_v fulfil_v last_o this_o pilate_n be_v a_o roman_a governor_n which_o rule_v for_o caesar_n as_o zacheus_n be_v a_o roman_a

bring_v much_o of_o the_o world_n unto_o idolatry_n and_o therefore_o god_n will_v have_v his_o son_n to_o be_v judge_v by_o the_o roman_a policy_n and_o to_o be_v condemn_v by_o a_o roman_a judge_n and_o to_o be_v slay_v with_o a_o roman_a death_n as_o it_o be_v join_v the_o jew_n and_o the_o roman_n in_o impiety_n together_o to_o show_v that_o these_o two_o nation_n shall_v be_v the_o odioust_a people_n unto_o he_o in_o all_o the_o world_n and_o how_o his_o servant_n shall_v be_v crucify_v there_o where_o he_o be_v crucify_v himself_o for_o as_o the_o roman_n then_o do_v crucify_v christ_n upon_o a_o cross_n so_o they_o crucify_v he_o now_o upon_o their_o altar_n and_o resemble_v the_o dragon_n 12._o which_o when_o he_o can_v not_o prevail_v against_o michael_n himself_o than_o he_o

with_o the_o head_n and_o end_n with_o the_o member_n so_o much_o of_o the_o priest_n and_o the_o scribe_n and_o the_o pharisy_n and_o the_o elder_n &_o pilate_n what_o they_o do_v against_o christ_n 31._o of_o who_o be_v fullfil_v david_n prayer_n lord_n turn_v the_o counsel_n of_o achitophel_n unto_o folly_n so_o their_o counsel_n be_v turn_v unto_o folly_n for_o as_o paul_n reviue_v when_o he_o

we_o come_v to_o judas_n to_o aggrevate_v this_o tragical_a counsel_n the_o evangelist_n annex_v unto_o it_o the_o desperate_a end_n of_o the_o cursedst_v man_n that_o ever_o be_v three_o thing_n be_v special_o note_v of_o this_o traitor_n his_o death_n the_o cause_n of_o his_o death_n &_o the_o confession_n which_o he_o make_v before_o his_o death_n his_o death_n in_o the_o five_o verse_n he_o

they_o lie_v for_o your_o memory_n therefore_o first_o of_o his_o treason_n when_o judas_n the_o traitor_n before_o he_o be_v call_v judas_n the_o apostle_n now_o he_o be_v call_v judas_n the_o

our_o fault_n be_v so_o heinous_a and_o grievous_a that_o no_o ransom_n can_v countervail_v it_o unless_o god_n himself_o have_v suffer_v for_o us._n be_v in_o this_o extremity_n neither_o man_n nor_o

i_o may_v call_v the_o merciful_a article_n because_o it_o be_v the_o quintessence_n and_o sweetness_n of_o all_o the_o twelve_o therefore_o who_o but_o antichrist_n dare_v deprave_v it_o if_o there_o be_v a_o satisfaction_n for_o our_o sin_n by_o our_o work_n or_o by_o our_o pilgrimage_n or_o by_o our_o mass_n or_o by_o our_o penance_n let_v christ_n never_o be_v call_v a_o forgiver_n but_o a_o

that_o which_o exceed_v number_n and_o measure_v therefore_o be_v content_a with_o joseph_n brethren_n to_o take_v your_o money_n again_o 25._o and_o say_v that_o you_o have_v corn_n for_o nothing_o that_o be_v you_o be_v save_v for_o nothing_o or_o else_o when_o you_o say_v i_o believe_v the_o remission_n of_o sin_n you_o lie_v unto_o god_n because_o you_o do_v not_o believe_v the_o remission_n

you_o show_v my_o death_n be_v much_o at_o one_o so_o that_o if_o you_o call_v this_o sacrament_n a_o show_n of_o christ_n death_n as_o it_o be_v call_v here_o than_o it_o be_v not_o christ_n or_o if_o you_o call_v it_o a_o remembrance_n of_o christ_n as_o it_o be_v call_v there_o yet_o it_o be_v not_o christ_n but_o a_o show_n or_o remembrance_n of_o christ_n but_o this_o be_v such_o a_o show_n and_o remembrance_n that_o the_o next_o verse_n say_v 27._o whosoever_o receive_v it_o unworthy_o be_v guilty_a of_o the_o body_n and_o blood_n of_o christ_n will_v you_o know_v who_o receive_v

be_v do_v when_o it_o be_v do_v because_o it_o be_v never_o thorough_o do_v &_o therefore_o we_o must_v double_v our_o examination_n as_o paul_n double_v his_o counsel_n if_o a_o man_n suspect_v his_o
