think_v only_o before_o baptism_n for_o thus_o they_o reason_n little_a child_n say_v they_o receive_v the_o grace_n of_o god_n and_o be_v pardon_v of_o original_a sin_n in_o baptism_n by_o the_o power_n of_o the_o death_n and_o passion_n of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n but_o say_v they_o when_o we_o be_v once_o baptize_v &_o then_o sin_n jesus_n christ_n alone_o be_v not_o sufficient_a to_o make_v we_o acceptable_a unto_o the_o lord_n and_o to_o blot_v out_o the_o remembrance_n of_o our_o sin_n but_o we_o ourselves_o also_o must_v make_v recompense_n and_o this_o be_v the_o cause_n of_o the_o devise_v of_o their_o work_n of_o supererogation_n as_o to_o wander_v up_o &_o down_o like_o rog_n a_o pilgrimage_n to_o have_v many_o trental_n of_o mass_n &_o such_o like_a devilish_a invention_n so_o that_o if_o a_o man_n ask_v the_o papist_n why_o the_o rogue_n up_o and_o down_o a_o pilgrimage_n as_o they_o do_v to_o see_v their_o mow_v ape_n and_o marmeset_v why_o they_o fast_o such_o and_o such_o a_o day_n why_o they_o build_v church_n and_o why_o they_o cause_v mass_n to_o be_v song_n forsooth_o will_v they_o say_v even_o to_o redeem_v ourselves_o before_o the_o lord_n our_o god_n for_o it_o be_v very_o meet_a that_o when_o we_o have_v understand_v of_o our_o sin_n that_o we_o shall_v make_v satisfaction_n for_o they_o to_z the_o end_n god_n may_v acquit_v &_o discharge_v we_o of_o the_o same_o see_v here_o how_o they_o make_v the_o death_n &_o passion_n of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n of_o none_o effect_v &_o so_o the_o papist_n be_v not_o able_a to_o go_v on_o one_o foot_n forward_o to_o do_v their_o devotion_n but_o that_o they_o blaspheme_v god_n open_o deny_v the_o death_n &_o passion_n of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n &_o cast_v themselves_o down_o into_o hell_n mouth_n thus_o we_o see_v whether_o their_o devilish_a devotion_n which_o they_o call_v good_a lead_v they_o and_o therefore_o we_o be_v to_o observe_v the_o word_n of_o the_o prophet_n when_o he_o say_v that_o the_o correction_n of_o our_o peace_n be_v lay_v upon_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n because_o that_o by_o his_o mean_a god_n be_v appease_v &_o set_v at_o one_o with_o we_o for_o he_o bear_v all_o the_o sin_n &_o iniquity_n of_o the_o world_n upon_o he_o so_o they_o let_v we_o here_o note_n that_o when_o we_o see_v what_o manner_n once_o we_o be_v we_o shall_v always_o stand_v in_o fear_n because_o god_n be_v our_o enemy_n &_o our_o judge_n and_o beside_o we_o must_v in_o the_o second_o place_n conclude_v that_o there_o be_v no_o other_o mean_a either_o in_o heaven_n or_o yet_o in_o the_o earth_n to_o make_v we_o at_o one_o with_o god_n but_o by_o the_o price_n which_o our_o lord_n jesus_n have_v pay_v &_o satisfy_v even_o by_o his_o death_n &_o passion_n have_v we_o this_o let_v we_o then_o with_o bold_a cheer_n &_o countenance_n come_v before_o our_o god_n &_o yet_o not_o so_o but_o that_o we_o must_v always_o humble_v ourselves_o &_o be_v ashamed_a of_o our_o sin_n howbeit_o that_o will_v be_v no_o let_v unto_o we_o but_o that_o we_o may_v frank_o call_v upon_o our_o god_n as_o upon_o our_o father_n neither_o can_v we_o glorify_v ourselves_o wtout_o he_o repute_v we_o to_o be_v just_a &_o all_o our_o debt_n pay_v because_o we_o be_v pardon_v by_o the_o power_n of_o the_o condemnation_n which_o jesus_n christ_n suffer_v thus_o we_o see_v how_o this_o place_n must_v be_v practise_v of_o we_o mark_v also_o why_o he_o say_v that_o we_o be_v heal_v by_o his_o wound_n in_o very_a deed_n we_o shall_v never_o be_v able_a to_o see_v thorough_o into_o our_o sin_n because_o hypocrisy_n blindfold_v our_o eye_n &_o pride_n have_v always_o mighty_a rule_n over_o we_o &_o therefore_o we_o great_o deceive_v ourselves_o and_o make_v ourselves_o believe_v that_o god_n be_v high_o behold_v unto_o we_o or_o else_o we_o be_v so_o blockish_a as_o that_o we_o never_o think_v to_o come_v to_o a_o reckon_n now_o it_o fall_v out_o here_o that_o the_o prophet_n show_v that_o we_o be_v but_o dead_a if_o it_o be_v not_o for_o the_o wound_n of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n and_o therefore_o that_o we_o must_v needs_o seek_v to_o be_v heal_v by_o he_o when_o then_o we_o will_v feel_v the_o benefit_n which_o come_v unto_o we_o by_o the_o death_n and_o passion_n of_o the_o son_n of_o god_n let_v we_o note_v that_o look_v how_o many_o sin_n as_o be_v root_v in_o our_o nature_n although_o they_o appear_v not_o be_v even_o so_o many_o deadly_a wound_n and_o disease_n i_o beseech_v you_o if_o there_o shall_v be_v a_o apostume_n about_o the_o stomach_n of_o a_o man_n or_o in_o his_o bowel_n shall_v it_o be_v ever_o a_o whit_n the_o worse_a for_o the_o man_n if_o it_o be_v see_v that_o it_o may_v be_v lance_v if_o a_o man_n then_o think_v himself_o to_o be_v whole_a and_o sound_a because_o he_o will_v not_o see_v his_o disease_n sure_o he_o must_v needs_o be_v void_a of_o all_o wit_n and_o reason_n and_o therefore_o our_o disease_n must_v be_v so_o much_o the_o more_o deadly_a when_o as_o they_o be_v secret_a and_o not_o know_v and_o over_o &_o beside_o the_o sin_n which_o we_o bear_v about_o with_o we_o the_o root_n of_o which_o be_v hide_v in_o we_o there_o be_v sin_n in_o we_o which_o we_o commit_v daily_o which_o sufficient_o declare_v that_o our_o nature_n be_v froward_a and_o curse_a and_o that_o we_o be_v altogether_o pervert_v wherefore_o since_o we_o be_v whole_o infect_v with_o spiritual_a leprosy_n and_o that_o our_o iniquity_n be_v rot_v in_o we_o what_o shall_v we_o do_v in_o this_o case_n &_o what_o remedy_n be_v to_o be_v have_v shall_v we_o seek_v for_o help_v at_o the_o angel_n in_o heaven_n alas_o they_o can_v do_v no_o good_a and_o therefore_o we_o must_v go_v unto_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n because_o he_o will_v be_v disfigure_v even_o from_o the_o crown_n of_o the_o head_n unto_o the_o sole_n of_o the_o foot_n will_v be_v all_o to_o wound_v scourge_v and_o buffet_v with_o one_o blow_n upon_o a_o other_o crown_v with_o thorn_n tie_v &_o fast_o nail_v to_o the_o cross_n and_o at_o last_o pierce_v through_o the_o side_n with_o a_o spear_n and_o here_o we_o see_v how_o we_o be_v heal_v here_o be_v the_o right_a medicine_n for_o our_o disease_n wherewith_o we_o must_v be_v content_v &_o whereunto_o also_o we_o must_v apply_v our_o whole_a affection_n know_v that_o we_o be_v never_o able_a to_o be_v at_o quiet_a with_o ourselves_o but_o that_o we_o must_v still_o be_v extreme_o torment_v &_o vex_v be_v it_o not_o that_o jesus_n christ_n comfort_v we_o and_o appease_v the_o wrath_n of_o god_n for_o us._n now_o when_o we_o be_v sure_a of_o this_o it_o give_v we_o occasion_n to_o sing_v praise_n unto_o his_o holy_a name_n where_o before_o we_o can_v do_v nothing_o else_o but_o groan_v and_o be_v utter_o confound_v and_o this_o be_v in_o sum_n the_o thing_n which_o we_o be_v to_o learn_v out_o of_o the_o word_n of_o the_o prophet_n now_o s._n matthew_n allege_v this_o place_n 8.17_o mat._n 8.17_o when_o he_o make_v mention_n of_o all_o the_o disease_n which_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n heal_v how_o he_o make_v the_o blind_a to_o see_v the_o lame_a to_o go_v the_o deaf_a to_o hear_v set_v a_o foot_n such_o as_o be_v half_o dead_a &_o sick_a of_o the_o palsy_n &_o cast_v devil_n out_o of_o man_n body_n this_o say_v he_o declare_v that_o it_o be_v not_o for_o naught_o that_o the_o prophet_n isaiah_n say_v that_o he_o bear_v our_o infirmity_n and_o sustain_v our_o grief_n without_o doubt_n the_o prophet_n speak_v not_o here_o of_o bodily_a disease_n wherefore_o it_o seem_v that_o the_o evangelist_n have_v apply_v this_o testimony_n but_o ill_a but_o he_o in_o declare_v that_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n heal_v outward_a disease_n mean_v to_o bring_v we_o to_o a_o high_a consideration_n because_o he_o will_v have_v we_o to_o behold_v as_o it_o be_v in_o a_o figure_n the_o reason_n of_o his_o come_n into_o the_o world_n and_o therefore_o when_o we_o hear_v that_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n heal_v the_o sick_a of_o the_o palsy_n but_o especial_o raise_v the_o dead_a &_o that_o he_o also_o heal_v all_o manner_n of_o disease_n let_v we_o understand_v even_o in_o the_o view_n of_o the_o eye_n according_a to_o our_o gross_a &_o weak_a capacity_n that_o he_o have_v tell_v we_o that_o he_o be_v our_o spiritual_a physician_n &_o let_v we_o also_o learn_v as_o i_o have_v already_o say_v that_o all_o the_o vice_n whereunto_o we_o be_v incline_v be_v so_o many_o corruption_n in_o our_o soul_n and_o as_o there_o be_v many_o evil_a humour_n in_o the_o body_n even_o so_o likewise_o
therefore_o we_o must_v conclude_v that_o there_o be_v but_o one_o father_n of_o life_n which_o be_v jesus_n christ_n wherefore_o we_o come_v to_o seek_v he_o in_o the_o supper_n and_o every_o one_o that_o come_v must_v have_v this_o settle_a mind_n to_o be_v able_a to_o say_v i_o come_v hither_o to_o have_v a_o testimony_n that_o jesus_n christ_n be_v my_o life_n that_o be_v incorporate_a into_o he_o i_o may_v live_v for_o ever_o but_o after_o what_o sort_n come_v we_o to_o find_v he_o in_o the_o supper_n if_o we_o come_v after_o the_o manner_n of_o the_o papist_n to_o find_v the_o body_n of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n we_o deceive_v ourselves_o for_o that_o be_v the_o most_o curse_a idolatry_n that_o may_v be_v to_o think_v the_o bread_n that_o we_o receive_v there_o to_o be_v the_o body_n of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n we_o must_v therefore_o seek_v for_o he_o above_o and_o although_o we_o know_v he_o to_o be_v in_o heaven_n yet_o doubt_v we_o not_o but_o that_o he_o be_v with_o we_o by_o his_o grace_n insomuch_o that_o even_o as_o we_o see_v and_o touch_v the_o sign_n so_o likewise_o do_v jesus_n christ_n accomplish_v in_o we_o the_o thing_n which_o the_o sign_n represent_v unto_o we_o to_o wit_n that_o he_o dwell_v in_o our_o soul_n and_o although_o by_o nature_n our_o soul_n be_v in_o deed_n dead_a by_o reason_n of_o our_o sin_n yet_o will_v he_o make_v we_o partaker_n of_o this_o everlasting_a life_n for_o as_o he_o say_v this_o bread_n present_v unto_o you_o my_o body_n even_o so_o do_v he_o true_o accomplish_v the_o same_o in_o our_o soul_n and_o as_o our_o body_n be_v sustain_v with_o bread_n even_o so_o our_o soul_n receive_v jesus_n christ_n for_o a_o spiritual_a food_n be_v preserve_v by_o the_o power_n of_o god_n and_o he_o remain_v in_o we_o by_o his_o grace_n howbeit_o here_o be_v not_o all_o to_o have_v understand_v thus_o much_o but_o we_o must_v also_o lift_v up_o our_o mind_n unto_o heaven_n for_o else_o we_o shall_v never_o be_v unite_v to_o jesus_n christ_n no_o doubt_n of_o it_o there_o be_v many_o which_o know_v well_o enough_o that_o jesus_n christ_n be_v not_o in_o the_o bread_n and_o wine_n but_o in_o the_o mean_a while_n where_o be_v their_o heart_n forsooth_o some_o of_o their_o heart_n be_v plunge_v over_o head_n and_o ear_n in_o covetousness_n some_o of_o they_o be_v drunken_a with_o ambition_n and_o other_o some_o their_o heart_n be_v wrap_v up_o in_o all_o kind_n of_o villainy_n for_o behold_v the_o whooremonger_n his_o mind_n be_v set_v on_o nothing_o else_o but_o upon_o lechery_n other_o upon_o drunkenness_n and_o belly_n cheer_v in_o other_o some_o be_v nothing_o but_o blasphemy_n murmur_a &_o all_o villainy_n which_o saint_n paul_n call_v earthly_a member_n 5._o colos_n 3._o 5._o if_o you_o will_v say_v he_o come_v near_o unto_o jesus_n christ_n you_o must_v mortify_v your_o earthly_a member_n what_o must_v we_o forgo_v our_o hand_n and_o foot_n no_o that_o be_v not_o his_o meaning_n but_o we_o must_v mortify_v our_o fornication_n uncleanness_n inordinate_a affection_n evil_a concupiscence_n ambition_n and_o covetousness_n which_o be_v worship_v of_o image_n and_o all_o other_o such_o like_a will_v we_o then_o seek_v for_o jesus_n christ_n in_o heaven_n then_o must_v we_o rid_v ourselves_o of_o all_o these_o earthly_a member_n for_o what_o agreement_n can_v there_o be_v between_o we_o &_o jesus_n christ_n we_o must_v not_o thrust_v he_o amongst_o our_o pollution_n but_o let_v we_o go_v unto_o he_o that_o he_o may_v rid_v we_o of_o they_o thus_o we_o see_v that_o we_o must_v not_o only_o understande_v that_o he_o in_o heaven_n but_o we_o must_v also_o mortify_v these_o earthly_a member_n which_o do_v separate_v we_o from_o he_o and_o have_v our_o mind_n occupy_v a_o loft_n how_o be_v that_o let_v we_o live_v chaste_o sober_o charitable_o temperate_o patient_o and_o altogether_o vertuos_o and_o these_o be_v the_o feather_n wherewith_o we_o must_v fly_v up_o into_o heaven_n although_o to_o speak_v proper_o we_o must_v have_v neither_o wing_n to_o fly_v with_o nor_o yet_o ladder_n to_o climb_v up_o but_o it_o be_v jesus_n christ_n that_o bring_v we_o thither_o and_o raise_v we_o up_o by_o the_o grace_n which_o i_o have_v name_v and_o which_o he_o bestow_v upon_o us._n here_o then_o we_o see_v how_o we_o must_v apply_v this_o doctrine_n to_o the_o supper_n so_o that_o when_o the_o bread_n and_o wine_n shall_v be_v deliver_v we_o we_o must_v learn_v to_o seek_v for_o all_o our_o felicity_n in_o jesus_n christ_n live_v in_o brotherly_a love_n together_o and_o every_o man_n mortify_v his_o sinful_a lust_n and_o affection_n if_o i_o feel_v myself_o to_o be_v by_o any_o mean_v carry_v away_o from_o jesus_n christ_n i_o ought_v to_o pull_v that_o mean_a from_o i_o out_o by_o the_o root_n that_o i_o may_v be_v true_o raise_v up_o to_o jesus_n christ_n not_o that_o we_o can_v be_v perfect_o raise_v up_o but_o we_o must_v labour_v to_o go_v more_o and_o more_o on_o for_o in_o deed_n the_o supper_n be_v ordain_v to_o that_o end_n and_o we_o shall_v not_o receive_v it_o only_o once_o in_o our_o life_n but_o very_o often_o to_o signify_v unto_o we_o that_o we_o must_v go_v on_o in_o this_o world_n until_o such_o time_n as_o he_o have_v deliver_v we_o from_o this_o corrupt_a body_n and_o bring_v we_o unto_o himself_o and_o according_a to_o this_o holy_a doctrine_n let_v we_o fall_v down_o before_o the_o face_n of_o our_o good_a god_n and_o acknowledge_v our_o offence_n beseech_v he_o that_o he_o will_v not_o suffer_v we_o to_o be_v so_o give_v over_o unto_o they_o as_o heretofore_o we_o have_v be_v but_o so_o wean_v we_o from_o they_o as_o that_o we_o seek_v after_o none_o other_o thing_n but_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n and_o obey_v

that_o they_o acknowledge_v god_n to_o be_v their_o guide_n and_o now_o we_o be_v to_o handle_v that_o which_o follow_v that_o when_o jesus_n christ_n tell_v they_o of_o the_o promise_n of_o god_n his_o father_n he_o say_v you_o have_v hear_v of_o i_o heretofore_o as_o if_o he_o shall_v have_v say_v that_o they_o be_v not_o to_o look_v for_o that_o at_o the_o hand_n of_o god_n which_o they_o in_o their_o own_o judgement_n think_v to_o be_v best_a but_o for_o the_o thing_n which_o he_o have_v promise_v to_o be_v short_a we_o must_v here_o gather_v a_o doctrine_n unto_o ourselves_o which_o be_v this_o we_o must_v not_o build_v our_o faith_n upon_o any_o thing_n that_o we_o ourselves_o shall_v imagine_v 10.17_o rom._n 10.17_o but_o upon_o the_o promise_n of_o god_n for_o saint_n paul_n

for_o where_o it_o be_v say_v that_o peter_n weep_v bitter_o it_o be_v to_o this_o end_n to_o declare_v unto_o we_o the_o sorrow_n whereof_o saint_n paul_n speak_v that_o be_v to_o salvation_n and_o

of_o it_o when_o he_o weep_v by_o himself_o it_o be_v a_o good_a token_n that_o he_o be_v touch_v with_o his_o sin_n and_o offence_n because_o he_o seek_v not_o to_o have_v man_n to_o be_v witness_n of_o his_o repentance_n but_o weep_v alone_o before_o god_n and_o in_o this_o we_o see_v what_o it_o be_v for_o we_o to_o do_v for_o if_o we_o only_o bewail_v our_o sin_n and_o transgression_n in_o

all_o man_n be_v not_o doctor_n to_o teach_v howbeit_o if_o we_o be_v christian_n we_o have_v sufficient_a wherewith_o to_o exhort_v our_o neighbour_n let_v we_o now_o come_v to_o the_o other_o part_n of_o the_o pprophecy_n of_o the_o prophet_n joell_n where_o it_o be_v say_v that_o god_n will_v send_v terrible_a and_o wondrous_a sign_n blood_n and_o fire_n and_o the_o vapoure_n of_o smoke_n the_o

people_n at_o the_o come_n of_o jesus_n christ_n although_o great_a felicity_n and_o blessing_n be_v promise_v yet_o the_o meaning_n be_v not_o for_o all_o that_o but_o that_o we_o shall_v see_v horrible_a and_o merueylous_a thing_n and_o therefore_o it_o be_v very_o needful_a that_o we_o shall_v be_v tell_v of_o it_o to_o the_o end_n we_o may_v understande_v that_o the_o come_n of_o jesus_n christ_n be_v not_o to_o place_v we_o in_o this_o world_n as_o in_o a_o paradise_n and_o to_o live_v in_o it_o at_o our_o ease_n and_o pleasure_n but_o that_o jesus_n christ_n be_v send_v to_o a_o

because_o we_o be_v so_o curse_v as_o that_o we_o will_v not_o receive_v the_o grace_n which_o he_o will_v have_v bestow_v upon_o us._n and_o therefore_o when_o our_o lord_n offer_v himself_o unto_o

he_o rise_v again_o he_o show_v himself_o to_o be_v the_o very_a son_n of_o god_n thus_o we_o see_v the_o meaning_n of_o saint_n peter_n his_o word_n when_o he_o say_v who_o god_n raise_v up_o be_v

paul_n now_o use_v a_o strange_a kind_n of_o argument_n the_o better_a to_o confirm_v we_o in_o this_o hope_n whereunto_o he_o have_v exhort_v we_o in_o the_o person_n of_o the_o thessalonian_o which_o be_v that_o god_n will_v not_o be_v so_o light_o set_v by_o by_o the_o contemner_n of_o his_o gospel_n who_o make_v no_o reckon_n of_o his_o heavenly_a majesty_n neither_o will_v he_o suffer_v his_o creature_n to_o lift_v themselves_o up_o against_o he_o &_o to_o withstand_v he_o thus_o we_o see_v by_o how_o much_o more_o we_o shall_v be_v confirm_v in_o the_o hope_n of_o our_o salvation_n see_v that_o god_n have_v a_o interest_n therein_o &_o be_v his_o own_o cause_n and_o this_o be_v a_o point_n which_o we_o be_v diligent_o to_o observe_v for_o although_o as_o i_o have_v already_o say_v god_n exceed_o assure_v we_o that_o he_o have_v great_a care_n of_o our_o salvation_n yet_o our_o nature_n be_v so_o wonderful_a mistrustful_a as_o that_o we_o continual_o stand_v in_o doubt_n

it_o can_v otherwise_o be_v but_o that_o god_n will_v mainteyn_fw-mi his_o majesty_n against_o the_o pride_n and_o enmity_n of_o man_n and_o therefore_o let_v we_o diligent_o mark_v that_o jesus_n

he_o even_o so_o will_v he_o likewise_o punish_v all_o those_o that_o have_v unjust_o afflict_v his_o choose_a people_n thus_o we_o see_v what_o s._n paul_n his_o meaning_n be_v when_o as_o he_o say_v that_o jesus_n christ_n will_v come_v to_o render_v vengeance_n to_o all_o those_o which_o have_v not_o know_v god_n and_o obey_v his_o gospel_n as_o if_o he_o shall_v have_v say_v behold_v your_o

they_o what_o think_v you_o that_o god_n make_v no_o reckon_n to_o maintain_v and_o defend_v his_o glory_n now_o as_o the_o adversary_n afflict_v you_o for_o cleave_v unto_o the_o gospel_n even_o so_o likewise_o will_v god_n in_o the_o defence_n of_o his_o own_o cause_n be_v your_o protector_n and_o defendor_n and_o by_o the_o way_n s._n paul_n also_o give_v we_o here_o in_o this_o place_n many_o profitable_a advertisemente_n for_o when_o he_o speak_v of_o the_o vengeance_n which_o be_v prepare_v for_o our_o enemy_n he_o say_v that_o jesus_n christ_n will_v come_v with_o the_o angel_n of_o his_o power_n and_o in_o flame_a fire_n but_o to_o what_o end_n forsooth_o to_o confirm_v his_o say_n to_o wit_n that_o the_o enemy_n of_o his_o truth_n say_v he_o may_v sustain_v their_o punishment_n both_o before_o god_n and_o his_o majesty_n as_o if_o he_o shall_v have_v say_v sure_o you_o can_v no_o more_o comprehend_v the_o torment_n which_o the_o faithless_a shall_v suffer_v then_o we_o do_v see_v the_o glory_n of_o god_n for_o when_o we_o hear_v the_o glory_n of_o god_n speak_v of_o we_o know_v it_o to_o be_v without_o end_n and_o measure_n and_o therefore_o we_o ought_v to_o wonder_v at_o it_o even_o so_o fare_v it_o with_o the_o horrible_a vengeance_n which_o be_v prepare_v for_o all_o the_o faithless_a see_v god_n must_v show_v forth_o his_o power_n upon_o they_o for_o since_o his_o majesty_n as_o i_o have_v say_v be_v inestimable_a therefore_o must_v their_o torment_n be_v also_o incomprehensible_a for_o our_o cause_n and_o thus_o much_o for_o this_o point_n moreover_o when_o s._n paul_n speak_v of_o infidel_n and_o of_o the_o enemy_n of_o god_n he_o say_v that_o they_o know_v he_o not_o nor_o yet_o obey_v his_o gospel_n or_o that_o they_o be_v
be_v there_o many_o other_o like_o thing_n to_o be_v short_a there_o be_v many_o secret_a disease_n &_o even_o so_o fare_v it_o with_o our_o soul_n &_o because_o they_o be_v full_a of_o vice_n before_o the_o lord_n god_n they_o have_v also_o need_v of_o a_o physician_n and_o who_o shall_v he_o be_v we_o shall_v not_o find_v he_o either_o in_o heaven_n or_o in_o earth_n except_o it_o be_v he_o who_o the_o heavenly_a father_n have_v give_v we_o to_o wit_n our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n and_o therefore_o if_o we_o can_v reach_v to_o the_o understanding_n how_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n have_v bring_v health_n to_o our_o soul_n let_v we_o come_v to_o figure_n out_o the_o which_o be_v here_o show_v we_o when_o he_o make_v the_o blind_a to_o see_v for_o this_o be_v out_o of_o all_o doubt_n that_o our_o soul_n be_v both_o blind_a &_o beastly_a beside_o jesus_n christ_n make_v the_o dumb_a to_o speak_v now_o we_o give_v our_o tongue_n to_o nothing_o else_o but_o to_o

into_o we_o &_o therefore_o it_o be_v our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n that_o must_v give_v we_o also_o our_o hear_n to_o be_v short_a when_o we_o shall_v join_v the_o word_n of_o s._n matthew_n with_o the_o meaning_n of_o the_o prophet_n isaiah_n to_o wit_n that_o we_o for_o our_o part_n be_v full_a of_o corruption_n &_o villainy_n &_o that_o there_o be_v no_o health_n in_o we_o &_o our_o soul_n full_a of_o all_o deadly_a sin_n but_o that_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n have_v rid_v we_o of_o they_o all_o &_o that_o in_o come_v to_o he_o we_o shall_v find_v health_n when_o i_o say_v we_o shall_v thus_o join_v one_o with_o a_o other_o then_o shall_v we_o understand_v that_o except_o we_o have_v recourse_n unto_o this_o redeemer_n we_o must_v needs_o always_o lie_v stone_n still_o in_o

until_o such_o time_n as_o every_o of_o we_o have_v true_o examine_v his_o own_o estate_n &_o know_v what_o be_v within_o he_o for_o what_o be_v the_o reason_n why_o we_o be_v so_o cold_a &_o slack_a when_o we_o be_v tell_v of_o come_v unto_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n true_o it_o be_v because_o we_o have_v no_o capacity_n but_o be_v like_o very_a blockhead_n for_o we_o shall_v see_v how_o these_o common_a drunkard_n be_v knoden_v together_o in_o their_o intemperancy_n &_o will_v never_o give_v over_o until_o such_o time_n as_o they_o gnashe_v their_o tooth_n &_o be_v able_a to_o do_v

now_o there_o be_v not_o a_o worse_a kind_n of_o drunkenness_n than_o this_o blockishness_n wherein_o all_o miserable_a sinner_n be_v overwhelm_v until_o such_o time_n as_o they_o feel_v what_o it_o
