after_o that_o time_n but_o to_o leave_v that_o mark_n as_o a_o chastisement_n on_o his_o fail_n and_o see_v solomon_n be_v great_a therefore_o may_v this_o silence_n of_o his_o recovery_n be_v more_o universal_a as_o to_o he_o before_o we_o draw_v any_o thing_n from_o this_o by_o way_n of_o use_n i_o shall_v answer_v a_o doubt_n and_o it_o be_v this_o how_o can_v all_o these_o thousand_o and_o

not_o safe_a and_o it_o want_v not_o many_o inconvenience_n to_o assert_v that_o any_o book_n once_o design_v of_o god_n to_o his_o church_n as_o a_o canon_n or_o rule_n of_o faith_n and_o manner_n shall_v be_v lose_v and_o see_v it_o be_v not_o consistent_a with_o that_o wise_a providence_n of_o he_o whereby_o he_o have_v still_o careful_o preserve_v the_o treasure_n of_o his_o oracle_n in_o

shall_v so_o be_v for_o that_o a_o thing_n be_v scripture_n it_o be_v not_o only_o needful_a that_o it_o be_v inspire_v but_o also_o that_o it_o be_v appoint_v of_o god_n for_o public_a use_n it_o be_v not_o improbable_a but_o isaiah_n moses_n david_n paul_n and_o other_o may_v have_v write_v many_o more_o writing_n upon_o particular_a occasion_n or_o to_o particular_a person_n which_o be_v

we_o account_v of_o these_o song_n mention_v in_o the_o objection_n and_o other_o write_n of_o solomon_n now_o not_o extant_a and_o it_o may_v be_v the_o spirit_n have_v pitch_v on_o this_o song_n to_o be_v record_v as_o the_o sum_n and_o chief_a of_o all_o the_o rest_n as_o he_o do_v pitch_n upon_o some_o particular_a prayer_n of_o david_n and_o moses_n etc._n etc._n pass_v by_o other_o and_o

love_n as_o to_o bestow_v it_o on_o any_o creature_n whorish_o but_o who_o reserve_v it_o for_o christ_n only_o so_o the_o church_n be_v call_v 2_o cor._n 11._o 2._o a_o chaste_a virgin_n and_o so_o
