be_v very_o evident_a by_o which_o he_o punish_v the_o wicked_a by_o the_o wicked_a wicked_a good_a doctrine_n touch_v the_o tyranny_n of_o the_o wicked_a &_o take_v revenge_n upon_o his_o enemy_n even_o by_o his_o enemy_n themselves_o as_o he_o have_v threaten_v they_o in_o his_o law_n and_o therefore_o there_o be_v less_o marvel_v herein_o then_o that_o god_n suffer_v the_o small_a fish_n

of_o this_o nature_n of_o unreasonable_a creature_n but_o only_o that_o it_o have_v so_o please_v god_n who_o be_v the_o master_n and_o lord_n of_o all_o these_o work_n and_o who_o have_v provide_v for_o they_o according_a to_o his_o good_a pleasure_n sure_o also_o when_o we_o can_v conceive_v no_o other_o reason_n for_o the_o tyranny_n and_o cruelty_n of_o man_n exercise_v one_o upon_o

for_o a_o reason_n when_o we_o can_v understand_v the_o cause_n as_o we_o will_v but_o as_o i_o say_v even_o now_o this_o reason_n manife_v itself_o sufficient_o in_o his_o just_a judgement_n upon_o

against_o the_o almighty_a yet_o the_o consideration_n may_v seem_v to_o we_o to_o be_v otherwise_o in_o respect_n of_o the_o meek_a and_o of_o those_o who_o he_o hold_v not_o only_o for_o his_o

judgement_n of_o god_n seem_v more_o strange_a to_o humane_a reason_n than_o the_o other_o do_v yet_o they_o be_v not_o so_o secret_a and_o mystical_a but_o that_o he_o manife_v cause_n enough_o not_o
