which_o have_v hear_v but_o one_o prophet_n we_o may_v tremble_v to_o think_v what_o we_o shall_v answer_v for_o our_o warning_n which_o have_v be_v threaten_v as_o often_o as_o the_o israelite_n

now_o therefore_o i_o nabuchadnezzar_n praise_n and_o extol_v and_o magnify_v the_o king_n of_o heaven_n who_o work_n be_v all_o truth_n and_o his_o way_n judgement_n and_o those_o that_o walk_v in_o

humble_v his_o child_n that_o although_o he_o have_v more_o honour_n than_o he_o have_v before_o yet_o he_o be_v not_o proud_a of_o it_o as_o he_o be_v before_o but_o cry_v with_o the_o prophet_n

there_o be_v no_o god_n now_o with_o heart_n and_o mouth_n honour_v none_o but_o god_n his_o pride_n and_o his_o fall_n daniel_n declare_v but_o when_o he_o come_v to_o his_o restitution_n he_o make_v nabuchadnezzar_n to_o speak_v himself_o and_o give_v thanks_n in_o his_o own_o person_n like_o a_o witness_n bring_v in_o to_o testify_v the_o truth_n of_o this_o wonderful_a story_n when_o the_o

to_o give_v thanks_n for_o his_o favour_n receive_v and_o then_o be_v dismiss_v in_o these_o verse_n two_o thing_n show_v themselves_o at_o the_o first_o view_n that_o be_v nabuchadnezzars_n restitution_n and_o his_o thankfulness_n in_o his_o restitution_n first_o he_o show_v the_o time_n when_o he_o be_v restore_v in_o these_o word_n at_o the_o end_n of_o these_o day_n than_o he_o show_v the_o manner_n how_o he_o be_v restore_v in_o these_o word_n i_o nabuchadnezzar_n lift_v up_o my_o eye_n to_o heaven_n and_o my_o understanding_n be_v restore_v to_o i_o in_o his_o thankfulness_n first_o he_o extoll_v god_n power_n in_o set_v he_o up_o and_o pull_v he_o down_o and_o raise_v he_o again_o then_o he_o commend_v god_n justice_n and_o truth_n which_o deserve_v to_o be_v praise_v for_o his_o judgement_n as_o much_o as_o for_o his_o mercy_n as_o though_o he_o rejoice_v that_o god_n have_v make_v he_o like_o a_o beast_n that_o he_o may_v die_v like_o a_o man_n at_o the_o end_n of_o these_o day_n as_o daniel_n note_v the_o time_n of_o his_o pride_n when_o he_o walk_v in_o his_o palace_n to_o show_v how_o pride_n grow_v out_o of_o building_n and_o wealth_n and_o apparel_n and_o such_o root_n so_o he_o note_v the_o time_n of_o his_o fall_n while_o the_o word_n be_v in_o his_o mouth_n to_o show_v that_o he_o be_v punish_v for_o his_o pride_n and_o ignorance_n that_o he_o may_v know_v where_o to_o begin_v his_o conversion_n and_o abate_v his_o pride_n and_o when_o he_o have_v take_v away_o the_o cause_n than_o god_n will_v take_v away_o the_o punishment_n so_o likewise_o he_o note_v the_o time_n of_o his_o restitution_n at_o the_o end_n of_o these_o day_n that_o be_v after_o seven_o year_n be_v expire_v to_o show_v how_o long_o the_o sickness_n of_o pride_n be_v in_o cure_v and_o to_o show_v how_o every_o thing_n be_v fulfil_v which_o be_v prophesy_v even_o to_o the_o point_n of_o time_n for_o it_o be_v tell_v he_o by_o daniel_n that_o he_o shall_v be_v like_o a_o beast_n seven_o year_n therefore_o nabuchadnezzar_n be_v prompt_v as_o it_o be_v to_o confess_v the_o truth_n and_o say_v as_o the_o prophet_n say_v at_o the_o end_n of_o these_o day_n that_o be_v at_o the_o end_n of_o seven_o year_n i_o nabuchadnezzar_n be_v restore_v to_o my_o kingdom_n as_o daniel_n tell_v i_o yet_o another_o note_n be_v set_v upon_o this_o beast_n lest_o we_o shall_v think_v that_o god_n only_o regard_v the_o season_n and_o think_v seven_o year_n punishment_n enough_o for_o such_o a_o sin_n he_o say_v not_o bare_o that_o his_o understanding_n and_o honour_n be_v restore_v unto_o he_o when_o seven_o year_n be_v end_v but_o that_o they_o be_v restore_v unto_o he_o when_o he_o begin_v to_o lift_v up_o his_o eye_n unto_o heaven_n to_o show_v that_o this_o blessing_n come_v from_o above_o and_o that_o he_o which_o have_v humble_v he_o have_v restore_v he_o again_o as_o if_o he_o shall_v say_v to_o all_o that_o be_v cast_v down_o with_o sickness_n or_o poverty_n or_o infamy_n or_o any_o trouble_n whatsoever_o in_o body_n or_o mind_n he_o which_o have_v humble_v you_o will_v raise_v you_o as_o he_o have_v do_v i_o but_o you_o must_v look_v up_o unto_o heaven_n and_o lift_v up_o your_o heart_n unto_o he_o and_o then_o your_o understanding_n and_o comfort_n and_o wealth_n and_o pleasure_n &_o health_n and_o liberty_n and_o good_a name_n and_o all_o shall_v return_v unto_o you_o again_o like_a job_n sheep_n and_o camel_n and_o ox_n in_o
these_o gallery_n still_o they_o will_v desire_v no_o other_o heaven_n but_o nabuchadnezzar_n have_v show_v the_o way_n before_o they_o and_o they_o must_v all_o dance_v after_o he_o though_o they_o be_v as_o mighty_a though_o they_o be_v mighty_a them_z he_o death_n will_v not_o take_v his_o kingdom_n for_o a_o ransom_n now_o what_o be_v babel_n and_o what_o be_v nabuchadnezzar_n the_o king_n thereof_o now_o babel_n be_v destroy_v and_o the_o king_n that_o build_v it_o lay_v in_o the_o dust_n have_v it_o not_o be_v better_a to_o have_v build_v a_o house_n in_o heaven_n which_o may_v have_v receive_v he_o when_o he_o dye_v the_o name_n of_o these_o palace_n may_v well_o be_v call_v babel_n that_o be_v confusion_n because_o they_o prophesy_v confusion_n to_o they_o that_o build_v they_o because_o their_o foundation_n be_v pride_n their_o wall_n extortion_n their_o roof_n ambition_n and_o all_o within_o they_o usury_n bribery_n and_o cruelty_n if_o this_o be_v the_o best_a that_o nabuchadnezzar_n have_v to_o vaunt_v of_o what_o be_v the_o worst_a which_o he_o may_v be_v ashamed_a of_o when_o i_o see_v how_o earnest_a this_o king_n be_v about_o his_o dream_n and_o how_o loose_a he_o sit_v after_o in_o his_o palace_n i_o think_v i_o see_v the_o image_n of_o the_o world_n in_o one_o man_n how_o lively_o do_v nabuchadnezzar_n resemble_v the_o dreamer_n of_o our_o time_n he_o can_v not_o rest_v till_o he_o know_v the_o interpretation_n of_o his_o dream_n such_o inquiry_n such_o diligence_n to_o know_v god_n will_n that_o a_o man_n will_v have_v think_v now_o if_o the_o king_n meet_v with_o a_o prophet_n that_o can_v tell_v he_o the_o truth_n and_o instruct_v he_o from_o god_n that_o his_o dream_n warn_v he_o to_o amend_v his_o life_n he_o will_v then_o reclaim_v himself_o and_o reform_v his_o realm_n and_o become_v such_o a_o king_n as_o be_v never_o in_o the_o land_n before_o but_o behold_v no_o soon_o resolve_v of_o his_o doubt_n but_o he_o be_v ready_a to_o be_v warn_v again_o and_o be_v not_o so_o attentive_a to_o the_o prophet_n as_o he_o be_v to_o his_o dream_n although_o he_o care_v for_o neither_o for_o when_o he_o understand_v that_o his_o dream_n go_v about_o to_o change_v the_o course_n of_o his_o life_n he_o go_v away_o like_o naaman_n in_o a_o chafe_n and_o care_v no_o more_o for_o his_o dream_n after_o before_o the_o dream_n come_v all_o will_v have_v say_v that_o such_o a_o dream_n will_v have_v humble_v his_o heart_n for_o ever_o before_o the_o prophet_n come_v all_o will_v have_v say_v that_o such_o a_o prophet_n will_v have_v convert_v he_o with_o a_o word_n but_o nabuchadnezzar_n be_v nabuchadnezzar_n and_o if_o another_o dream_n come_v more_o fearful_a than_o this_o yet_o nabuchadnezzar_n will_v be_v nabuchadnezzar_n and_o love_v his_o palace_n better_o than_o paradise_n so_o we_o think_v if_o god_n will_v send_v a_o famine_n upon_o this_o land_n that_o will_v make_v we_o fear_v he_o but_o god_n have_v send_v a_o famine_n and_o yet_o we_o do_v not_o fear_v he_o if_o god_n will_v send_v a_o earthquake_n upon_o this_o land_n that_o will_v make_v we_o fear_v he_o but_o god_n have_v send_v a_o earthquake_n and_o yet_o we_o do_v not_o fear_v he_o if_o god_n will_v send_v a_o pestilence_n upon_o this_o land_n that_o will_v make_v we_o fear_v he_o but_o god_n have_v send_v a_o pestilence_n and_o yet_o we_o do_v not_o fear_v he_o if_o god_n will_v send_v war_n upon_o this_o land_n that_o will_v make_v we_o fear_v he_o but_o god_n have_v send_v war_n and_o yet_o we_o do_v not_o fear_v he_o therefore_o what_o will_v make_v we_o fear_v he_o there_o be_v many_o which_o dream_n upon_o religion_n as_o nabuchadnezzar_n dream_v upon_o his_o dream_n and_o as_o he_o desire_v only_o to_o know_v what_o it_o mean_v so_o they_o desire_v only_o to_o know_v master_n say_v the_o young_a man_n to_o christ_n what_o shall_v i_o do_v to_o come_v into_o heaven_n he_o will_v fain_o know_v the_o way_n to_o heaven_n but_o when_o christ_n show_v he_o the_o way_n he_o will_v not_o take_v it_o so_o they_o will_v go_v from_o preacher_n to_o preacher_n as_o nabuchadnezzar_n send_v from_o one_o wise_a man_n to_o another_o to_o be_v resolve_v in_o point_n of_o religion_n such_o a_o scrutiny_n such_o attention_n such_o heed_n as_o though_o they_o will_v run_v out_o of_o the_o world_n and_o go_v beyond_o all_o that_o a_o man_n will_v think_v they_o will_v do_v any_o thing_n as_o the_o jew_n come_v unto_o moses_n and_o this_o young_a man_n unto_o christ_n but_o when_o they_o have_v hear_v what_o they_o come_v for_o they_o do_v like_o nabuchadnezzar_n as_o they_o do_v before_o now_o they_o say_v it_o be_v but_o a_o dream_n because_o the_o meaning_n do_v not_o answer_v according_a to_o their_o will_n so_o achab_n inquire_v of_o the_o prophet_n to_o hear_v what_o he_o will_v say_v but_o it_o appear_v that_o he_o never_o mean_v to_o follow_v he_o except_o he_o will_v answer_v as_o he_o will_v have_v he_o when_o it_o come_v to_o the_o act_n which_o be_v every_o man_n trial_n than_o you_o shall_v see_v who_o be_v like_o nabuchadnezzar_n that_o be_v which_o affect_v only_o to_o know_v and_o who_o be_v like_o zacheus_n that_o be_v which_o practise_v as_o they_o know_v for_o as_o the_o truth_n be_v reveal_v so_o it_o must_v be_v witness_v or_o else_o the_o fall_n of_o nabuchadnezzar_n show_v what_o judgement_n will_v follow_v upon_o such_o neglect_v because_o he_o will_v not_o do_v as_o his_o dream_n warn_v he_o and_o as_o the_o prophet_n counsel_v he_o therefore_o god_n forsake_v he_o and_o his_o kingdom_n depart_v from_o he_o and_o he_o be_v thrust_v out_o of_o his_o palace_n and_o ●urned_v like_o a_o ox_n into_o the_o wilderness_n there_o he_o live_v like_o a_o beast_n until_o seven_o year_n be_v end_v a_o warning_n to_o all_o to_o take_v warning_n by_o the_o word_n for_o it_o be_v the_o gentle_a warner_n the_o next_o will_v be_v hard_a the_o three_o and_o the_o four_o hard_o than_o it_o like_v to_o the_o nine_o plague_n of_o egypt_n which_o do_v exceed_v one_o another_o for_o what_o be_v he_o can_v weigh_v the_o wrath_n of_o god_n or_o the_o grievousnes_n of_o sin_n some_o man_n will_v think_v that_o nabuchadnezzar_n may_v have_v speak_v all_o this_o without_o any_o such_o great_a offence_n as_o be_v take_v at_o it_o for_o he_o say_v no_o more_o but_o that_o it_o be_v a_o fair_a house_n and_o that_o he_o build_v it_o and_o that_o he_o erect_v it_o for_o his_o honour_n see_v many_o under_o prince_n delight_n in_o worse_a vanity_n than_o fair_a building_n and_o speak_v vain_a often_o in_o a_o week_n therefore_o when_o you_o see_v how_o it_o displease_v god_n to_o vaunt_v of_o these_o earthly_a thing_n or_o to_o impute_v any_o thing_n to_o ourselves_o think_v what_o shall_v be_v the_o doom_n of_o great_a sin_n if_o nabuchadnezzar_n become_v like_o a_o beast_n and_o lodge_v in_o the_o wilderness_n for_o his_o pride_n they_o which_o bear_v pride_n and_o covetousness_n and_o lust_n and_o wrath_n and_o malice_n in_o one_o breast_n shall_v lodge_v in_o hell_n and_o become_v like_o devil_n because_o they_o be_v like_o beast_n already_o therefore_o let_v this_o be_v in_o stead_n of_o daniel_n warning_n if_o god_n do_v take_v such_o a_o straight_a account_n of_o nabuchadnezzar_n for_o his_o dream_n what_o he_o have_v profit_v by_o it_o what_o account_n will_v he_o take_v of_o we_o what_o profit_n we_o have_v make_v by_o nabuchadnezzars_n fall_n and_o punishment_n thus_o you_o have_v hear_v what_o the_o voice_n speak_v from_o earth_n now_o you_o shall_v hear_v what_o the_o voice_n speak_v from_o heaven_n for_o it_o follow_v while_o the_o word_n be_v in_o the_o king_n mouth_n a_o voice_n come_v from_o heaven_n and_o say_v o_o king_n to_o thou_o be_v it_o speak_v thy_o kingdom_n shall_v be_v take_v from_o thou_o etc._n etc._n god_n will_v warn_v he_o no_o more_o by_o dream_n nor_o by_o prophet_n as_o he_o do_v but_o his_o judgement_n shall_v speak_v here_o be_v fulfil_v that_o which_o elihu_n say_v to_o job_n god_n speak_v once_o and_o twice_o by_o dream_n and_o vision_n in_o the_o night_n and_o man_n see_v it_o not_o at_o the_o last_o god_n open_v his_o eye_n by_o the_o correction_n which_o he_o have_v seal_v so_o god_n speak_v unto_o nabuchadnezzar_n first_o by_o dream_n and_o after_o

if_o you_o think_v that_o you_o shall_v be_v mock_v if_o you_o be_v too_o zealous_a as_o micholl_n scorn_v david_n when_o he_o dance_v before_o the_o ark_n david_n tell_v you_o how_o you_o shall_v
