for_o they_o sow_v not_o neither_o reap_v nor_o carry_v into_o the_o barn_n yet_o your_o heavenly_a father_n feed_v they_o be_v you_o not_o much_o better_a than_o they_o here_o be_v a_o second_o reason_n of_o the_o commandment_n be_v not_o careful_a for_o such_o necessary_n for_o if_o god_n feed_v the_o fowl_n much_o more_o will_v he_o do_v you_o the_o proposition_n be_v confirm_v thus_o because_o you_o have_v mean_n and_o they_o have_v none_o again_o you_o be_v better_o than_o they_o for_o you_o be_v god_n child_n and_o so_o be_v not_o they_o therefore_o if_o he_o feed_v they_o much_o more_o will_v he_o do_v you_o a_o very_a good_a reason_n which_o may_v induce_v all_o man_n to_o obey_v the_o commandment_n for_o it_o be_v a_o very_a sensible_a reason_n and_o may_v easy_o be_v understand_v of_o all_o before_o he_o propose_v his_o reason_n he_o bid_v we_o behold_v they_o that_o be_v to_o look_v upon_o they_o wise_o with_o consideration_n for_o so_o the_o word_n signify_v here_o be_v a_o general_a duty_n to_o be_v learn_v namely_o to_o consider_v the_o work_n of_o god_n for_o this_o may_v be_v say_v of_o all_o the_o creature_n behold_v they_o the_o duty_n therefore_o be_v to_o mark_v they_o and_o to_o view_v they_o well_o that_o we_o in_o they_o may_v see_v the_o wisdom_n goodness_n mercy_n justice_n and_o providence_n of_o god_n solomon_n give_v the_o same_o lesson_n 15_o to_o consider_v the_o work_n of_o god_n god_n make_v one_o creature_n after_o a_o other_o several_o in_o 6._o day_n and_o rest_v the_o 7._o and_o sanctify_v it_o one_o cause_n be_v that_o man_n may_v consider_v several_o of_o these_o work_n of_o god_n our_o rest_n must_v be_v consecrate_v to_o the_o consideration_n of_o the_o work_n of_o god_n the_o heaven_n be_v compare_v to_o a_o great_a book_n which_o all_o may_v read_v ps._n 19_o and_o so_o we_o may_v say_v of_o all_o the_o creature_n so_o many_o creature_n as_o there_o be_v in_o y_fw-fr e_fw-la world_n so_o many_o book_n wherein_o we_o may_v read_v sensible_o &_o distinct_o the_o power_n wisdom_n &_o goodness_n of_o god_n therefore_o we_o ought_v to_o look_v upon_o they_o and_o even_o to_o spell_v they_o out_o till_o we_o can_v read_v they_o perfect_o now_o what_o be_v the_o thing_n to_o be_v look_v upon_o in_o they_o they_o sow_v not_o nei-neith_a reap_v they_o have_v not_o that_o care_n for_o meat_n and_o drink_v which_o we_o have_v man_n do_v this_o and_o that_o sow_n &_o reap_v by_o god_n commandment_n &_o their_o labour_n be_v approve_v the_o bird_n do_v not_o so_o much_o they_o take_v no_o care_n at_o all_o how_o then_o do_v they_o live_v the_o young_a raven_n cry_v to_o god_n for_o food_n 39_o and_o the_o lion_n seek_v to_o he_o 104._o &_o the_o eye_n of_o all_o thing_n look_v up_o to_o he_o 145._o how_o can_v this_o be_v can_v the_o unreasonable_a creature_n do_v so_o it_o can_v be_v that_o which_o the_o holy_a ghost_n say_v have_v his_o sense_n meaning_n and_o force_v for_o they_o do_v not_o use_v prayer_n indeed_o as_o man_n do_v but_o that_o which_o man_n do_v by_o prayer_n they_o do_v the_o same_o in_o their_o kind_n by_o a_o natural_a instinct_n imprint_v in_o they_o by_o their_o creation_n they_o seek_v the_o food_n that_o god_n have_v ordain_v for_o they_o and_o rest_v content_v with_o his_o providence_n and_o so_o they_o call_v upon_o god_n and_o depend_v on_o he_o and_o therefore_o the_o holy_a ghost_n have_v of_o purpose_n use_v these_o phrase_n to_o show_v how_o they_o content_v themselves_o with_o god_n providence_n here_o mark_v one_o point_n the_o creature_n be_v subject_a to_o vanity_n &_o corruption_n by_o the_o sin_n of_o man_n and_o yet_o they_o come_v near_o the_o first_o state_n than_o man_n and_o the_o order_n of_o nature_n remain_v in_o they_o for_o this_o be_v their_o part_n by_o order_n of_o creation_n and_o it_o be_v to_o be_v see_v in_o they_o to_o this_o day_n but_o man_n be_v fall_v from_o the_o order_n set_v in_o his_o creation_n even_o in_o these_o temporal_a thing_n whether_o we_o regard_v the_o get_n or_o the_o keep_n or_o the_o dispending_a of_o they_o man_n be_v grow_v to_o a_o distrustful_a care_n against_o the_o will_n and_o providence_n of_o god_n this_o point_n be_v to_o be_v mark_v that_o the_o other_o creature_n keep_v the_o order_n of_o nature_n in_o this_o thing_n &_o man_n do_v not_o which_o show_v that_o man_n be_v more_o vile_a than_o base_a creature_n and_o more_o corrupt_a than_o they_o for_o they_o keep_v the_o law_n of_o nature_n this_o serve_v to_o humble_v we_o and_o to_o make_v we_o think_v base_o of_o ourselves_o who_o have_v not_o in_o we_o by_o nature_n that_o good_a which_o they_o have_v yet_o your_o heavenly_a father_n feed_v they_o here_o be_v excellent_a point_n set_v down_o which_o i_o will_v but_o touch_v first_o here_o be_v a_o reason_n why_o we_o ought_v to_o rest_v on_o god_n providence_n and_o afterward_o a_o way_n show_v whereby_o we_o may_v do_v it_o there_o be_v two_o kind_n of_o promise_n in_o the_o word_n 1_o first_o of_o spiritual_a and_o eternal_a thing_n 2_o second_o of_o corporal_a temporal_a and_o external_a thing_n now_o how_o may_v we_o put_v our_o trust_n in_o god_n for_o these_o temporal_a thing_n thus_o we_o must_v take_v hold_v of_o the_o main_a promise_n of_o salvation_n and_o reconciliation_n with_o god_n in_o christ_n and_o when_o we_o be_v resolve_v of_o that_o than_o we_o shall_v begin_v to_o believe_v the_o promise_n of_o temporal_a thing_n and_o rest_n upon_o the_o goodness_n of_o god_n so_o that_o if_o you_o will_v know_v how_o to_o put_v your_o trust_n in_o god_n for_o these_o thing_n you_o must_v first_o labour_n for_o this_o to_o be_v assure_v by_o faith_n that_o you_o be_v the_o child_n of_o god_n and_o reconcile_v in_o christ._n this_o be_v the_o right_a way_n &_o the_o ground_n of_o all_o to_o believe_v our_o adoption_n &_o reconciliation_n and_o where_o this_o be_v not_o there_o can_v be_v no_o true_a trust_n in_o his_o providence_n so_o much_o as_o for_o a_o bit_n of_o bread_n further_o mark_v here_o a_o special_a &_o particular_a providence_n of_o god_n the_o bird_n provide_v nothing_o for_o themselves_o and_o therefore_o in_o all_o reason_n they_o shall_v perish_v in_o winter_n yet_o daily_a experience_n show_v this_o that_o they_o be_v both_o fat_a and_o in_o better_a like_n in_o winter_n this_o argue_v that_o there_o be_v a_o god_n that_o do_v feed_v they_o and_o a_o particular_a providence_n which_o tend_v upon_o the_o least_o foul_a and_o bring_v it_o meat_n in_o winter_n this_o be_v a_o sensible_a persuasion_n to_o all_o god_n servant_n that_o god_n will_v send_v they_o food_n and_o raiment_n for_o can_v it_o be_v possible_a that_o god_n shall_v feed_v the_o fowl_n and_o neglect_v his_o child_n again_o this_o serve_v not_o to_o bolster_v up_o any_o man_n idleness_n &_o negligence_n that_o will_v neither_o reap_v nor_o sow_v but_o to_o teach_v we_o that_o when_o all_o mean_n fail_v we_o must_v rest_v upon_o god_n in_o a_o word_n we_o must_v learn_v here_o to_o be_v like_o god_n to_o be_v merciful_a as_o he_o be_v merciful_a he_o be_v a_o saviour_n of_o all_o special_o of_o they_o that_o believe_v this_o be_v never_o more_o needful_a to_o be_v learn_v then_o now_o when_o man_n make_v themselves_o rich_a even_o with_o the_o blood_n of_o the_o poor_a if_o we_o be_v god_n child_n we_o must_v be_v like_o he_o 27_o which_o of_o you_o by_o take_v care_n be_v able_a to_o add_v one_o cubit_n unto_o his_o stature_n we_o have_v hear_v the_o commandment_n in_o the_o 25._o verse_n and_o two_o reason_n of_o it_o first_o if_o god_n give_v life_n and_o the_o body_n much_o more_o food_n and_o raiment_n second_o if_o he_o feed_v the_o fowl_n much_o more_o will_v he_o feed_v you_o now_o follow_v a_o three_o reason_n to_o move_v we_o to_o obey_v the_o commandment_n the_o word_n be_v propound_v by_o way_n of_o interrogation_n and_o it_o be_v the_o manner_n of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n to_o affirm_v or_o deny_v something_o and_o that_o more_o effectual_o under_o the_o form_n of_o a_o interrogation_n and_o this_o be_v all_o one_o as_o if_o he_o have_v say_v there_o be_v not_o one_o of_o you_o that_o by_o take_v care_n can_v add_v one_o cubit_n unto_o his_o stature_n the_o cubit_n here_o mention_v be_v a_o certain_a kind_n of_o measure_n borrow_v from_o a_o man_n arm_n which_o be_v the_o length_n from_o the_o bow_n of_o the_o arm_n or_o elbow_n to_o the_o end_n of_o the_o long_a finger_n about_o which_o length_n we_o be_v common_o when_o we_o come_v into_o the_o world_n so_o that_o the_o meaning_n be_v this_o as_o god_n make_v a_o man_n a_o cubit_n long_o
