at_o the_o thought_n of_o that_o day_n by_o which_o they_o be_v not_o only_o bridle_v from_o their_o great_a cruelty_n and_o tyranny_n they_o will_v impose_v upon_o the_o seed_n of_o faith_n but_o also_o the_o thought_n of_o death_n do_v in_o some_o measure_n out-top_n their_o pleasure_n and_o greatness_n so_o that_o their_o life_n in_o this_o their_o only_a heaven_n be_v not_o much_o better_a than_o our_o life_n in_o this_o our_o only_a hell_n for_o though_o they_o have_v fullness_n and_o such_o as_o we_o have_v want_v yet_o we_o have_v peace_n and_o they_o have_v war_n yea_o oftentimes_o sad_a torment_n to_o think_v what_o will_v become_v of_o their_o soul_n when_o as_o the_o seed_n of_o faith_n know_v what_o he_o be_v here_o what_o he_o shall_v be_v in_o the_o grave_n and_o what_o he_o shall_v be_v at_o the_o resurrection_n even_o glorify_v with_o his_o saviour_n so_o if_o you_o serious_o lie_v to_o heart_n the_o vast_a difference_n of_o the_o seed_n of_o faith_n and_o the_o seed_n of_o cain_n upon_o their_o bed_n of_o sickness_n or_o hour_n of_o death_n it_o will_v cause_v admiration_n as_o thus_o the_o departure_n of_o the_o seed_n of_o cain_n out_o of_o this_o world_n be_v as_o much_o as_o if_o a_o prince_n shall_v depart_v not_o only_o from_o his_o love_a wife_n and_o pretty_a child_n but_o be_v banish_v from_o his_o crown_n and_o kingdom_n never_o to_o enjoy_v

not_o only_o all_o his_o society_n but_o the_o pleasure_n of_o this_o his_o kingdom_n where_o he_o have_v delight_n as_o much_o as_o heart_n can_v wish_v and_o in_o the_o grave_a his_o soul_n and_o body_n lie_v uncapable_a of_o either_o joy_n or_o sorrow_n and_o then_o at_o the_o great_a day_n of_o our_o savior_n appearance_n thou_o shall_v be_v raise_v up_o thy_o body_n thy_o hell_n thy_o soul_n thy_o devil_n shut_v up_o close_a prisoner_n world_n without_o end_n now_o death_n be_v unto_o the_o seed_n of_o faith_n as_o a_o messenger_n of_o glad_a tiding_n in_o that_o it_o free_v he_o from_o the_o cruelty_n and_o oppression_n of_o the_o devil_n the_o seed_n of_o cain_n and_o take_v he_o from_o all_o his_o hardship_n and_o want_n that_o he_o have_v undergo_v by_o live_v upright_o in_o this_o strange_a kingdom_n and_o then_o he_o know_v that_o all_o the_o time_n he_o be_v in_o the_o grave_n there_o be_v no_o remembrance_n of_o good_a or_o evil_n and_o as_o soon_o as_o ever_o his_o god_n come_v he_o shall_v be_v raise_v to_o meet_v he_o in_o the_o air_n with_o his_o mighty_a angel_n where_o he_o shall_v have_v a_o kingdom_n that_o one_o hour_n enjoyment_n of_o that_o

thus_o in_o brief_a you_o have_v the_o difference_n of_o the_o two_o seed_n what_o triumph_n the_o seed_n of_o faith_n have_v in_o death_n over_o the_o seed_n of_o
but_o second_o in_o the_o next_o place_n i_o shall_v give_v you_o to_o understand_v that_o this_o wilderness_n here_o speak_v of_o be_v not_o a_o wilderness_n yield_v fruit_n for_o the_o support_v of_o life_n where_o nothing_o but_o wild_a beast_n void_a of_o reason_n do_v inhabit_v as_o the_o seed_n of_o cain_n do_v imagine_v and_o the_o learned_a of_o that_o seed_n do_v vain_o teach_v though_o this_o wilderness_n be_v the_o same_o that_o john_n quote_v in_o mat._n 3._o 13._o saying_n the_o voice_n of_o one_o cry_v in_o the_o wilderness_n prepare_v you_o the_o way_n of_o the_o

a_o wilderness_n of_o wood_n and_o wild_a beast_n that_o have_v no_o understanding_n to_o receive_v it_o and_o as_o great_a a_o darkness_n it_o be_v for_o thou_o to_o think_v that_o any_o devil_n without_o man_n or_o devil-man_n can_v so_o far_o overcome_v christ_n as_o to_o lead_v he_o into_o such_o a_o wilderness_n no_o no_o therefore_o take_v notice_n that_o wilderness_n john_n preach_v

wilderness_n as_o moses_n lead_v the_o people_n of_o israel_n through_o for_o neither_o do_v john_n preach_v nor_o be_v in_o any_o such_o wilderness_n 3._o it_o be_v say_v christ_n fast_v forty_o day_n and_o forty_o night_n but_o from_o what_o he_o fast_v be_v not_o in_o the_o least_o mention_v therefore_o i_o affirm_v that_o as_o moses_n fast_v forty_o day_n and_o forty_o night_n in_o the_o mount_n from_o natural_a food_n so_o do_v christ_n fast_o forty_o day_n and_o forty_o night_n in_o the_o spiritual_a that_o be_v christ_n do_v baptize_v none_o with_o the_o holy_a ghost_n nor_o with_o fire_n neither_o do_v he_o do_v any_o miracle_n for_o the_o space_n of_o six_o week_n and_o the_o original_n of_o this_o be_v that_o he_o may_v be_v tempt_v of_o the_o subtle_a serpentine_a

of_o these_o stone_n to_o raise_v up_o child_n unto_o abraham_n oh_o what_o absurdity_n be_v it_o in_o any_o man_n to_o think_v that_o god_n will_v of_o natural_a dead_a stone_n raise_v they_o up_o spiritual_a live_a child_n no_o no_o when_o the_o devil-man_n say_v command_v that_o these_o stone_n be_v make_v bread_n which_o be_v this_o command_v this_o stony_a heart_n of_o i_o and_o the_o stony_a hard_a heart_n of_o the_o pharisee_n and_o sadducee_n that_o send_v i_o command_v they_o to_o be_v make_v heart_n of_o flesh_n by_o baptise_v of_o we_o with_o the_o holy_a ghost_n and_o with_o fire_n whereby_o i_o and_o other_o may_v so_o believe_v that_o we_o may_v become_v true_a bread_n unto_o christ_n for_o in_o john_n 4._o 32_o 34._o there_o say_v christ_n i_o have_v meat_n to_o eat_v that_o you_o know_v not_o of_o mean_v his_o dispute_n with_o the_o woman_n of_o samaria_n as_o touch_v this_o it_o be_v his_o meat_n and_o drink_n to_o do_v the_o will_n of_o his_o father_n which_o
