still_o obedient_a unto_o his_o word_n the_o angel_n destroy_v senacharib_n mighty_a host_n the_o star_n in_o their_o course_n sight_n against_o sisera_n the_o raven_n feed_v elijah_n the_o dumb_a

whether_o the_o creature_n be_v all_o now_o so_o good_a as_o when_o they_o first_o come_v new_a out_o of_o god_n hand_n how_o be_v the_o mighty_a angel_n fall_v and_o become_v devil_n multitude_n of_o

this_o general_a survey_n of_o his_o creature_n by_o sin_n become_v so_o very_a evil_n that_o gen._n 6._o god_n repent_v and_o it_o grieve_v he_o at_o his_o heart_n that_o ever_o he_o make_v he_o

as_o thing_n now_o stand_v it_o be_v for_o the_o peace_n and_o tranquillity_n of_o the_o commonwealth_n of_o mankind_n that_o god_n have_v make_v some_o creature_n instrument_n wrath_n and_o

upon_o we_o body_n and_o good_n 2._o when_o we_o read_v that_o god_n reprieve_v adam_n from_o execution_n and_o give_v he_o that_o great_a mother_n promise_v of_o the_o bless_a seed_n we_o may_v rational_o suppose_v that_o he_o do_v in_o some_o measure_n at_o least_o alleviate_v or_o mitigate_v the_o just_o deserve_a curse_n upon_o the_o creature_n for_o his_o sake_n and_o cause_n for_o if_o god_n spare_v not_o to_o promise_v we_o his_o own_o son_n and_o to_o deliver_v he_o up_o for_o we_o all_o how_o shall_v he_o not_o with_o he_o free_o promise_v to_o give_v we_o all_o thing_n even_o
