it_o seem_v to_o i_o and_o man_n be_v not_o ashamed_a to_o allege_v their_o weening_n before_o god_n and_o it_o be_v the_o chief_a article_n of_o the_o faith_n of_o the_o papist_n at_o this_o day_n

devil_n of_o hell_n which_o be_v enemy_n and_o rebel_n to_o he_o to_o the_o uttermost_a of_o their_o power_n which_o labour_n to_o subvert_v his_o majesty_n and_o practice_v to_o confound_v all_o

without_o his_o permission_n and_o leave_n thus_o you_o see_v in_o what_o wise_a satan_n appear_v among_o the_o angel_n but_o yet_o by_o the_o way_n the_o manner_n of_o their_o deal_n be_v diverse_a for_o when_o the_o angel_n guide_v we_o and_o do_v the_o thing_n that_o god_n have_v command_v they_o have_v the_o nature_n to_o apply_v themselves_o unto_o he_o and_o have_v none_o other_o

they_o light_n for_o when_o we_o have_v a_o eye_n to_o the_o everlasting_a and_o endless_a kingdom_n of_o heaven_n it_o ought_v to_o outweigh_v in_o the_o balance_n all_o the_o worldly_a misery_n that_o be_v possible_a to_o be_v devise_v see_v then_o that_o the_o case_n stand_v so_o as_o oft_o as_o we_o be_v tempt_v to_o oversorow_v impatiency_n or_o despair_v let_v we_o have_v recourse_n to_o that_o which_o be_v say_v here_o which_o be_v that_o the_o time_n thereof_o be_v foreappoint_v and_o let_v we_o understand_v that_o god_n have_v foresee_v what_o be_v good_a for_o we_o too_o endure_v and_o that_o our_o affliction_n befall_v we_o not_o without_o his_o good_a pleasure_n furthermore_o also_o let_v we_o understand_v that_o he_o handle_v we_o not_o only_o with_o uprightness_n and_o

than_o in_o talk_v upon_o it_o for_o we_o may_v reason_v of_o it_o long_o enough_o to_o no_o purpose_n but_o the_o chief_a point_n be_v that_o every_o of_o we_o regard_n to_o profit_v himself_o by_o it_o at_o his_o need_n as_o how_o sure_o our_o life_n will_v seem_v very_o short_a unto_o we_o if_o it_o be_v not_o subject_a to_o so_o many_o want_n so_o long_o as_o we_o have_v our_o own_o wish_n and_o be_v at_o rest_n every_o of_o we_o can_v confess_v that_o our_o life_n be_v nothing_o and_o that_o it_o be_v as_o short_a as_o any_o thing_n can_v be_v but_o when_o we_o think_v upon_o the_o

continual_o new_a again_o this_o long_a linger_a make_v we_o stark_o weary_a and_o therefore_o let_v we_o have_v recourse_n to_o that_o which_o be_v say_v here_o namely_o that_o god_n have_v appoint_v the_o time_n and_o that_o it_o be_v in_o he_o to_o dispose_v of_o we_o as_o he_o list_v then_o must_v we_o content_a ourselves_o with_o the_o measure_n that_o he_o have_v give_v we_o know_v well_o that_o he_o wot_v what_o be_v meet_v and_o expedient_a for_o our_o feebleness_n and_o yet_o notwithstanding_o it_o be_v not_o for_o ever_o that_o we_o shall_v be_v fain_o to_o languish_v here_o there_o will_v be_v a_o end_n at_o what_o time_n god_n shall_v take_v we_o out_o of_o this_o earthly_a pilgrimage_n yea_o even_o to_o call_v we_o to_o his_o everlasting_a rest_n and_o there_o shall_v be_v none_o end_n there_o shall_v be_v no_o time_n set_v furthermore_o when_o god_n visit_v we_o and_o every_o of_o we_o in_o himself_o endure_v some_o necessity_n or_o some_o chastizement_n let_v we_o acknowledge_v thus_o well_o it_o be_v true_a that_o if_o this_o gear_n shall_v last_v ever_o we_o shall_v needs_o quail_v but_o god_n know_v the_o end_n which_o he_o mind_v to_o give_v we_o he_o have_v promise_v that_o we_o shall_v not_o continue_v overwhelm_v under_o the_o burden_n let_v we_o tarry_v till_o he_o reach_v we_o his_o hand_n in_o our_o adversity_n and_o let_v we_o assure_v ourselves_o that_o he_o will_v provide_v for_o we_o in_o due_a time_n lo_o how_o we_o ought_v too_o apply_v this_o lesson_n to_o our_o own_o use_n but_o in_o the_o mean_a while_o we_o see_v that_o job_n have_v ill_o profit_v by_o it_o and_o therefore_o must_v we_o be_v so_o much_o the_o water_n that_o we_o abuse_v not_o a_o sentence_n when_o god_n put_v it_o into_o our_o mind_n too_o instruct_v we_o by_o apply_v of_o it_o to_o the_o clean_a contrary_n and_o yet_o it_o be_v a_o ordinary_a matter_n with_o we_o so_o to_o do_v when_o we_o read_v the_o holy_a scripture_n if_o any_o comfort_n be_v

bereave_v of_o it_o it_o seem_v that_o god_n will_v cheer_n up_o his_o faithful_a one_o to_o the_o end_n to_o cast_v i_o into_o despair_n see_v the_o case_n stand_v so_o what_o can_v i_o think_v but_o that_o i_o be_o utter_o bar_v from_o all_o hope_n of_o his_o grace_n thus_o you_o see_v how_o we_o deal_v common_o in_o that_o behalf_n whereas_o god_n allure_v we_o as_o gentle_o as_o can_v be_v and_o whereas_o he_o sweeten_v all_o our_o misery_n and_o sorrow_n we_o thrust_v it_o all_o from_o we_o and_o seek_v nothing_o else_o but_o to_o nourish_v the_o malady_n within_o we_o and_o too_o bar_v ourselves_o quite_o from_o god_n favour_n and_o to_o cast_v it_o a_o great_a way_n off_o we_o see_v that_o this_o befall_v to_o job_n and_o therefore_o let_v we_o not_o think_v it_o strange_a if_o we_o be_v subject_a to_o such_o like_a temptation_n but_o what_o we_o must_v remedy_v it_o and_o pray_v god_n to_o give_v we_o the_o spirit_n of_o wisdom_n that_o we_o may_v know_v how_o to_o

some_o sort_n be_v glad_a see_v that_o god_n have_v not_o set_v they_o here_o to_o continue_v so_o for_o ever_o lo_o here_o a_o thing_n which_o for_o the_o most_o part_n be_v able_a to_o assuage_v

all_o other_o man_n as_o if_o he_o shall_v say_v god_n scourge_v i_o out_o of_o measure_n for_o he_o show_v not_o that_o he_o be_v mind_v to_o rid_v i_o out_o of_o the_o misery_n that_o press_v i_o and_o this_o be_v it_o that_o i_o have_v touch_v heretofore_o namely_o that_o general_o we_o can_v confess_v well_o enough_o how_o it_o be_v good_a reason_n that_o we_o shall_v endure_v many_o

reject_v except_o he_o show_v they_o unto_o we_o as_o he_o do_v they_o of_o sodom_n and_o gomorrha_n and_o those_o that_o be_v destroy_v by_o the_o flood_n here_o we_o have_v a_o certain_a testimony_n of_o the_o extreme_a vengeance_n of_o god_n for_o there_o be_v no_o place_n of_o repentance_n leave_v for_o those_o wretched_a person_n because_o they_o make_v themselves_o unworthy_a of_o mercy_n of_o these_o they_o &_o other_o such_o like_v we_o may_v rejoice_v but_o when_o god_n shall_v chastise_v our_o neighbour_n and_o we_o know_v not_o yet_o whether_o he_o will_v have_v pity_n on_o they_o we_o must_v have_v compassion_n on_o their_o misery_n and_o be_v so_o move_v with_o the_o judgement_n of_o god_n as_o we_o may_v conceive_v hope_n that_o he_o will_v send_v some_o release_n to_o they_o that_o be_v so_o afflict_v too_o be_v short_a thus_o must_v we_o put_v this_o text_n in_o practice_n true_a it_o be_v that_o this_o doctrine_n thus_o brief_o touch_v may_v be_v dark_a but_o if_o every_o man_n note_v well_o that_o which_o i_o have_v touch_v he_o may_v afterward_o more_o at_o large_a think_v on_o it_o and_o so_o the_o thing_n that_o be_v thus_o brief_o touch_v may_v nevertheless_o content_a we_o first_o of_o all_o i_o have_v say_v that_o we_o must_v use_v such_o gentleness_n towards_o all_o our_o neighbour_n as_o to_o wish_v their_o health_n and_o to_o be_v sorry_a for_o their_o evil_n as_o s._n paul_n teach_v we_o that_o the_o rule_n of_o charity_n require_v lament_v say_v he_o with_o they_o that_o suffer_v and_o we_o see_v that_o the_o child_n of_o god_n have_v always_o have_v this_o affection_n and_o zeal_n yet_o if_o we_o see_v that_o god_n punish_v sin_n we_o may_v also_o rejoice_v at_o it_o yea_o and_o for_o as_o much_o as_o god_n therein_o declare_v &_o show_v himself_o unto_o we_o our_o say_v must_v be_v the_o more_o and_o more_o ratify_v and_o confirm_v in_o he_o when_o we_o see_v that_o he_o have_v a_o care_n over_o mankind_n and_o that_o all_o thing_n be_v guide_v by_o he_o now_o it_o follow_v that_o our_o substance_n be_v not_o consume_v true_a it_o be_v that_o word_n for_o word_n it_o be_v if_o our_o substance_n be_v not_o

which_o do_v not_o agree_v with_o it_o let_v we_o simple_o hold_v that_o which_o eliphas_n mean_v to_o say_v he_o make_v here_o comparison_n of_o the_o righteous_a with_o the_o wicked_a and_o of_o

which_o s._n paul_n teach_v we_o namely_o that_o we_o be_v dead_a &_o our_o life_n be_v hide_v s._n paul_n show_v what_o be_v the_o state_n and_o condition_n of_o the_o faithful_a while_o they_o be_v

otherwise_o be_v nothing_o worth_a you_o see_v then_o that_o we_o must_v be_v subject_a too_o such_o as_o have_v public_a power_n and_o authority_n because_o we_o know_v it_o be_v god_n will_v to_o

pleasure_n lo_o here_o wherein_o patience_n show_v itself_o but_o there_o be_v nothing_o better_a nor_o more_o behooveful_a than_o too_o look_v upon_o the_o glass_n that_o be_v set_v before_o we_o

even_o when_o he_o be_v at_o death_n door_n but_o that_o be_v because_o he_o have_v no_o feel_n of_o his_o misery_n this_o therefore_o deserve_v not_o to_o be_v take_v and_o esteem_v for_o a_o

this_o word_n patient_a or_o patientness_n betoken_v not_o that_o man_n shall_v become_v blockish_a so_o as_o they_o shall_v have_v no_o heaviness_n at_o all_o nor_o be_v cumber_v with_o any_o grief_n when_o they_o feel_v adversity_n but_o the_o virtue_n be_v when_o they_o can_v moderate_v themselves_o and_o hold_v such_o a_o measure_n as_o they_o cease_v not_o to_o glorify_v god_n in_o the_o

until_o they_o may_v be_v able_a too_o frame_v themselves_o too_o the_o good_a will_n of_o god_n and_o too_o conclude_v as_o job_n do_v here_o and_o final_o to_o say_v that_o he_o be_v righteous_a in_o all_o respect_n and_o now_o let_v we_o see_v what_o we_o have_v to_o mark_v here_o where_o it_o be_v say_v that_o job_n rend_v his_o garment_n and_o shore_n his_o head_n for_o such_o fashion_n be_v customable_a in_o the_o east_n country_n according_a as_o we_o know_v that_o there_o be_v more_o ceremony_n in_o those_o country_n than_o be_v in_o these_o cold_a country_n where_o we_o dwell_v for_o when_o there_o happen_v any_o thing_n that_o may_v move_v man_n to_o great_a trouble_n they_o rend_v their_o garment_n in_o token_n of_o sorrow_n mark_v this_o for_o a_o special_a point_n and_o likewise_o in_o that_o country_n where_o man_n be_v wont_a to_o wear_v long_a head_n they_o poll_v themselves_o when_o they_o mourn_v like_v as_o on_o the_o contrary_a part_n where_o man_n use_v to_o poll_v their_o head_n they_o let_v their_o hair_n grow_v when_o they_o make_v any_o sorrow_n therefore_o job_n rend_v of_o his_o garment_n and_o his_o poll_n of_o his_o head_n be_v token_n of_o the_o heaviness_n that_o he_o conceive_v here_o for_o it_o be_v certain_a that_o he_o do_v it_o not_o upon_o any_o hypocrisy_n as_o oftentimes_o they_o that_o mean_v to_o counterfeit_v do_v disguise_n themselves_o too_o the_o end_n that_o man_n shall_v think_v they_o too_o be_v in_o great_a heaviness_n when_o they_o cease_v not_o to_o laugh_v in_o their_o heart_n job_n use_v no_o such_o hypocrisy_n let_v we_o assure_v ourselves_o then_o that_o when_o he_o tear_z his_o garment_n and_o shore_n his_o head_n he_o be_v full_a of_o extreme_a anguish_n and_o sorrow_n and_o that_o when_o he_o cast_v himself_o to_o the_o ground_n the_o same_o be_v another_o like_a record_n thereof_o but_o it_o seem_v that_o job_n give_v bridle_v too_o his_o heaviness_n which_o be_v a_o fault_n to_o be_v condemn_v for_o we_o know_v that_o man_n be_v wont_a to_o be_v but_o too_o excessive_a and_o inordinate_a in_o their_o passion_n for_o though_o they_o restrain_v and_o repress_v themselves_o as_o much_o as_o they_o can_v yet_o cease_v they_o not_o to_o pass_v measure_n and_o there_o be_v nothing_o more_o hard_a than_o to_o moderate_v a_o man_n self_n in_o such_o wise_a as_o we_o may_v keep_v rule_n and_o compass_v we_o see_v that_o man_n can_v make_v merry_a except_o they_o be_v over_o merry_a sorrow_n and_o heaviness_n be_v a_o passion_n yet_o far_o more_o headdie_a carry_v man_n away_o with_o far_o great_a force_n than_o gladness_n do_v and_o therefore_o we_o have_v cause_n to_o stand_v upon_o our_o guard_n as_o oftentimes_o and_o as_o long_o as_o god_n shall_v send_v we_o any_o adversity_n for_o it_o be_v the_o thing_n wherein_o we_o be_v wont_v to_o overshoot_v ourselves_o most_o and_o here_o it_o be_v say_v that_o job_n rend_v his_o garment_n it_o seem_v he_o mean_v to_o prick_v himself_o forward_o to_o be_v more_o sorrowful_a than_o he_o be_v for_o the_o man_n that_o behold_v himself_o so_o deface_v be_v astonish_v at_o himself_o and_o afterward_o when_o he_o come_v to_o his_o ear_n a_o man_n may_v say_v he_o have_v as_o it_o be_v seek_v help_n to_o sharpen_v and_o increase_v his_o grief_n and_o that_o it_o be_v as_o much_o as_o to_o strike_v the_o spur_n into_o his_o own_o side_n and_o this_o as_o i_o have_v say_v may_v seem_v worthy_a to_o be_v condemn_v but_o first_o we_o must_v understand_v that_o the_o scripture_n purpose_v here_o to_o express_v that_o the_o sorrow_n of_o this_o holy_a man_n be_v so_o great_a and_o so_o vehement_a as_o he_o be_v not_o able_a to_o stay_v himself_o from_o use_v the_o ordinary_a fashion_n yea_o even_o to_o the_o tear_v of_o his_o garment_n to_o show_v that_o he_o feel_v such_o anguish_n as_o have_v wound_v he_o even_o too_o the_o bottom_n of_o his_o heart_n this_o be_v it_o that_o the_o scripture_n mean_v to_o express_v but_o by_o the_o way_n although_o man_n ought_v to_o stand_v upon_o their_o guard_n that_o they_o be_v not_o swallow_v up_o of_o sorrow_n when_o they_o be_v afflict_v yet_o notwithstanding_o when_o god_n send_v we_o adversity_n it_o be_v meet_v that_o we_o shall_v think_v upon_o it_o for_o the_o common_a fashion_n of_o put_v away_o all_o grief_n be_v stark_o naught_o and_o yet_o for_o all_o that_o we_o see_v how_o man_n have_v fall_v into_o it_o insomuch_o that_o when_o they_o have_v mean_v to_o have_v patience_n they_o have_v quench_v the_o consideration_n of_o their_o missehaps_o thrust_v they_o far_o off_o and_o chase_v they_o quite_o away_o and_o to_o be_v short_a have_v labour_v to_o be_v so_o brutish_a as_o they_o may_v not_o know_v nor_o discern_v any_o thing_n at_o all_o but_o clean_o contrariwise_o when_o god_n scourge_v we_o it_o be_v not_o to_o give_v we_o blow_n on_o the_o head_n with_o a_o beetle_n to_o the_o end_n we_o shall_v be_v astonish_v and_o cast_v in_o a_o swoon_z but_o his_o mind_n be_v to_o induce_v we_o to_o think_v upon_o our_o misery_n as_o how_o for_o beside_o that_o we_o ought_v to_o call_v our_o sin_n to_o remembrance_n and_o too_o crave_v

have_v a_o overlike_n of_o it_o nor_o be_v puff_v up_o with_o vanity_n or_o presumption_n as_o we_o be_v but_o rather_o acknowledge_v the_o bond_n which_o we_o stand_v bind_v in_o to_o our_o god_n for_o use_v we_o so_o gentle_o as_o to_o carry_v we_o as_o it_o be_v in_o his_o lap_n and_o final_o that_o forasmuch_o as_o we_o see_v he_o have_v a_o care_n of_o our_o life_n we_o shall_v look_v a_o great_a way_n afore_o we_o that_o be_v to_o say_v keep_v on_o our_o way_n still_o too_o the_o everlasting_a kingdom_n where_o as_o be_v our_o true_a joy_n and_o rest_n we_o see_v then_o that_o god_n cease_v not_o too_o be_v merciful_a unto_o we_o when_o he_o send_v any_o affliction_n unto_o we_o for_o he_o do_v it_o to_o the_o end_n that_o by_o try_v what_o be_v in_o we_o we_o also_o may_v know_v what_o our_o estate_n be_v moreover_o it_o be_v good_a and_o profitable_a that_o the_o faithful_a when_o god_n afflict_v they_o shall_v enforce_v themselves_o to_o think_v who_o be_o i_o what_o be_o i_o and_o wherefore_o be_o i_o thus_o afflict_v i_o say_v it_o be_v meet_v for_o they_o to_o think_v upon_o all_o these_o thing_n for_o we_o see_v how_o job_n can_v rend_v his_o garment_n and_o shear_v his_o head_n without_o offend_v of_o god_n not_o that_o he_o intend_v thereby_o to_o cast_v
can_v they_o enjoy_v it_o for_o ever_o if_o god_n shall_v not_o continue_v the_o say_a grace_n which_o he_o have_v put_v into_o they_o and_o like_v as_o we_o speak_v of_o life_n so_o must_v we_o speak_v of_o righteousness_n also_o the_o angel_n be_v not_o steadfast_a further_o forth_o than_o god_n hold_v they_o up_o by_o his_o hand_n right_o be_v they_o call_v principality_n &_o power_n but_o that_o be_v because_o god_n execute_v his_o power_n by_o they_o and_o guide_v they_o to_o be_v short_a the_o angel_n have_v nothing_o in_o themselves_o whereof_o to_o make_v their_o boast_n for_o all_o the_o power_n and_o steadfastness_n which_o they_o have_v they_o hold_v it_o of_o god_n and_o be_v so_o much_o the_o more_o indebt_v to_o he_o for_o it_o as_o touch_v that_o which_o follow_v namely_o that_o god_n find_v or_o put_v for_o the_o hebrew_n word_n import_v that_o god_n put_v folly_n or_o vanity_n it_o imply_v not_o that_o the_o vanity_n which_o be_v in_o the_o angel_n come_v of_o god_n but_o the_o meaning_n of_o it_o be_v that_o he_o put_v it_o to_o they_o or_o charge_v they_o with_o it_o by_o his_o judgement_n that_o be_v to_o say_v that_o as_o a_o judge_n he_o give_v sentence_n that_o there_o be_v folly_n &_o vanity_n that_o be_v to_o say_v that_o there_o be_v faultiness_n in_o the_o angel_n yea_o &_o that_o they_o can_v not_o stand_v before_o he_o if_o he_o will_v deal_v rigorous_o with_o they_o very_o this_o seem_v strange_a to_o such_o as_o be_v not_o exercise_v in_o the_o holy_a scripture_n but_o if_o we_o wist_v what_o the_o righteousness_n of_o god_n be_v we_o shall_v not_o marvel_v that_o the_o angel_n themselves_o be_v find_v to_o be_v faulty_a if_o he_o shall_v compare_v they_o with_o himself_o for_o we_o must_v always_o come_v back_o to_o this_o point_n that_o the_o good_a thing_n that_o be_v in_o all_o creature_n be_v small_a in_o estimation_n of_o that_o which_o be_v in_o god_n which_o be_v utter_o infinite_a therefore_o we_o must_v always_o put_v a_o difference_n between_o the_o one_o &_o the_o other_o we_o see_v the_o angel_n have_v wonderful_a power_n &_o virtue_n special_o in_o respect_n of_o we_o for_o notwithstanding_o that_o the_o angel_n abide_v in_o the_o degree_n of_o creature_n yet_o may_v we_o well_o glorify_v they_o but_o when_o we_o come_v to_o god_n the_o greatness_n of_o he_o must_v swallow_v up_o all_o the_o rest_n in_o likewise_o as_o we_o see_v how_o the_o sun_n darken_v all_o the_o star_n of_o the_o sky_n and_o what_o be_v the_o sun_n he_o be_v a_o planet_n as_o well_o as_o the_o rest_n and_o yet_o nevertheless_o because_o god_n have_v grant_v that_o creature_n to_o have_v more_o brightness_n than_o the_o other_o star_n all_o of_o they_o must_v needs_o he_o overshadow_a so_o as_o no_o star_n can_v be_v pereeyve_v when_o the_o sun_n have_v his_o full_a power_n and_o what_o will_v be_v do_v they_o when_o god_n himself_o come_v forth_o as_o the_o prophet_n isaiah_n say_v there_o shall_v be_v neither_o sun_n nor_o moon_n any_o more_o but_o the_o brightness_n of_o god_n shall_v be_v such_o as_o it_o shall_v be_v see_v &_o know_v over_o all_o when_o isaiah_n speak_v of_o god_n kingdom_n he_o show_v that_o all_o thing_n must_v be_v do_v away_o &_o nothing_o be_v glorify_v but_o only_a god_n see_v it_o be_v so_o let_v we_o refer_v it_o also_o to_o that_o which_o be_v speak_v here_o that_o be_v to_o wit_n that_o god_n find_v lack_n in_o his_o angel_n although_o they_o be_v his_o servant_n and_o yet_o this_o be_v no_o let_v but_o that_o the_o service_n which_o the_o angel_n do_v unto_o god_n be_v perfect_a according_a to_o the_o perfection_n that_o can_v be_v in_o creature_n likewise_o as_o in_o that_o respect_n when_o in_o pray_v we_o desire_v god_n that_o his_o will_n may_v be_v do_v on_o earth_n as_o it_o be_v in_o heaven_n we_o witness_v that_o there_o be_v no_o untowardness_n in_o the_o obedience_n which_o the_o angel_n yield_v unto_o he_o but_o that_o he_o reign_v in_o they_o after_o such_o a_o peaceable_a manner_n as_o they_o be_v whole_o conformable_a to_o his_o will._n but_o we_o must_v always_o bear_v in_o mind_n that_o which_o i_o have_v touch_v that_o as_o long_o as_o we_o go_v no_o further_o but_o to_o the_o degree_n &_o state_n of_o creature_n there_o shall_v be_v a_o perfection_n in_o the_o angel_n very_o such_o

more_o when_o the_o sun_n give_v his_o light_n furthermore_o it_o behove_v we_o to_o mark_v well_o how_o s._n paul_n say_v that_o jesus_n christ_n be_v come_v to_o gather_v together_o the_o thing_n that_o be_v in_o heaven_n and_o earth_n and_o thereby_o he_o show_v that_o the_o angel_n have_v their_o steadfastness_n in_o the_o grace_n of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n forsomuch_o as_o he_o be_v the_o mediator_n between_o god_n and_o his_o creature_n true_a it_o be_v that_o jesus_n christ_n redeem_v not_o the_o angel_n for_o they_o need_v not_o to_o be_v ransom_v from_o death_n whereunto_o they_o be_v not_o yet_o fall_v but_o yet_o be_v he_o their_o mediator_n and_o how_o so_o to_o the_o intent_n to_o join_v they_o unto_o god_n in_o all_o perfection_n &_o afterward_o to_o maintain_v they_o by_o his_o grace_n that_o they_o may_v be_v preserve_v from_o fall_v now_o see_v that_o god_n find_v faultiness_n in_o his_o angel_n that_o be_v to_o say_v that_o they_o have_v no_o steadfastness_n in_o they_o further_o than_o they_o be_v maintain_v from_o above_o what_o be_v to_o be_v think_v of_o we_o we_o must_v be_v fain_o to_o come_v to_o that_o which_o eliphas_n add_v be_v

by_o then_o if_o the_o case_n stand_v between_o god_n and_o we_o let_v we_o learn_v to_o have_v good_a regard_n to_o the_o one_o side_n that_o be_v to_o wit_n unto_o god_n true_a it_o be_v that_o we_o

that_o in_o popery_n the_o service_n of_o god_n have_v not_o only_o be_v pervert_v and_o mar_v but_o also_o as_o good_a as_o utter_o abolish_v true_a it_o be_v that_o man_n will_v easy_o say_v that_o they_o ought_v to_o pray_v unto_o god_n but_o after_o what_o manner_n before_o we_o come_v thither_o say_v the_o papist_n we_o must_v run_v and_o trot_v from_o saint_n to_o saint_n the_o virgin_n

they_o repose_v their_o trust_n god_n must_v have_v but_o a_o little_a sprinkle_n in_o somuch_o as_o he_o shall_v hardly_o be_v know_v in_o so_o great_a a_o number_n and_o we_o must_v not_o in_o any_o

there_o be_v no_o speak_v nor_o of_o seek_v unto_o he_o as_o too_o the_o mediator_n that_o he_o shall_v make_v our_o way_n too_o god_n his_o father_n of_o all_o this_o gear_n they_o have_v no_o

with_o all_o the_o rest_n that_o be_v inferior_a and_o therefore_o let_v we_o thank_v our_o good_a god_n for_o draw_v we_o out_o of_o these_o horrible_a dungeon_n and_o for_o show_v we_o that_o it_o be_v he_o to_o who_o we_o must_v hold_v ourselves_o &_o who_o we_o must_v call_v upon_o as_o our_o father_n that_o we_o take_v heed_n to_o keep_v the_o way_n whereby_o he_o show_v we_o to_o come_v

asmuch_o as_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n reach_v we_o his_o hand_n and_o that_o his_o office_n be_v to_o make_v intercession_n for_o we_o and_o that_o god_n also_o have_v open_v we_o the_o gate_n desire_v nothing_o of_o we_o from_o day_n to_o day_n but_o that_o we_o shall_v come_v unto_o he_o let_v we_o i_o say_v acknowledge_v that_o the_o same_o be_v a_o inestimable_a benefit_n unto_o we_o &_o therewithal_o let_v we_o have_v pity_n upon_o these_o blind_a wretch_n which_o go_v astray_o after_o that_o manner_n in_o somuch_o that_o if_o it_o come_v to_o the_o point_n of_o call_v upon_o

wherein_o be_v all_o their_o happiness_n but_o in_o that_o as_o i_o have_v say_v they_o have_v their_o recourse_n unto_o god_n according_a as_o it_o be_v say_v that_o whosoever_o call_v upon_o the_o

conclude_v that_o they_o must_v needs_o be_v bereave_v of_o all_o hope_n of_o salvation_n and_o banish_v out_o of_o god_n kingdom_n see_v they_o know_v not_o what_o it_o be_v to_o call_v upon_o god_n and_o it_o appear_v for_o they_o come_v not_o to_o it_o but_o with_o doubt_v &_o tremble_a and_o therewithal_o they_o have_v a_o thousand_o windlass_n before_o they_o come_v at_o god_n because_o they_o have_v not_o jesus_n christ_n to_o their_o guide_n and_o foreleader_n so_o then_o let_v we_o mark_v well_o this_o strain_v wherein_o mention_n be_v make_v of_o stretch_v out_o our_o hand_n unto_o god_n why_o so_o for_o in_o asmuch_o as_o we_o can_v sty_n up_o into_o heaven_n by_o reason_n of_o our_o infirmity_n it_o behove_v we_o to_o have_v some_o sign_n that_o may_v serve_v to_o make_v outward_a protestation_n of_o the_o inward_a &_o secret_a do_v you_o see_v our_o heart_n can_v be_v see_v â–ª_o of_o i_o but_o if_o we_o pray_v unfeigned_o our_o heart_n lift_v itself_o up_o aloft_o &_o that_o be_v as_o much_o as_o if_o we_o come_v before_o god_n to_o lay_v forth_o all_o that_o ever_o we_o have_v within_o we_o this_o do_v i_o say_v be_v invisible_a nevertheless_o by_o hold_v up_o our_o hand_n unto_o god_n we_o declare_v that_o it_o be_v he_o to_o who_o we_o have_v all_o our_o refuge_n thus_o we_o see_v why_o prayer_n be_v betoken_a by_o the_o sign_n of_o it_o in_o the_o holy_a scripture_n not_o that_o the_o same_o sign_n be_v the_o whole_a or_o the_o principal_a point_n of_o prayer_n for_o the_o hypocrite_n can_v skill_n well_o enough_o to_o stretch_v out_o both_o their_o hand_n &_o their_o arm_n too_o and_o it_o seem_v that_o all_o that_o ever_o be_v in_o they_o be_v burn_v fire_n &_o yet_o for_o all_o that_o there_o be_v nothing_o but_o falsehood_n in_o they_o and_o they_o do_v but_o mock_v with_o god_n therefore_o it_o behove_v that_o this_o sign_n be_v true_a &_o the_o scripture_n also_o presuppose_v it_o to_o be_v so_o and_o here_o you_o see_v also_o why_o it_o be_v say_v that_o our_o heart_n must_v be_v dispose_v if_o zophar_n have_v say_v no_o more_o but_o stretch_v out_o thy_o hand_n unto_o god_n man_n may_v have_v allege_v that_o god_n be_v content_v when_o they_o come_v to_o he_o but_o with_o ceremony_n but_o when_o as_o he_o say_v that_o afore_o all_o thing_n our_o heart_n must_v be_v sound_a so_o as_o there_o be_v no_o wrthe_n nor_o crokeduesse_v in_o it_o it_o be_v as_o much_o to_o say_v as_o the_o same_o must_v be_v lay_v as_o a_o foundation_n whereupon_o to_o build_v and_o hereby_o we_o see_v that_o the_o lift_v up_o of_o our_o hand_n unto_o heaven_n be_v nothing_o unless_o our_o heart_n go_v before_o it_o so_o as_o the_o hand_n may_v be_v a_o true_a record_n of_o that_o which_o be_v in_o the_o man_n and_o of_o that_o which_o god_n himself_o know_v to_o be_v there_o for_o as_o concern_v the_o residue_n of_o our_o life_n peradventure_o man_n will_v regard_v we_o and_o we_o may_v have_v some_o regard_n of_o they_o but_o very_o that_o must_v not_o be_v for_o desire_v of_o any_o praise_n for_o if_o we_o desire_v to_o be_v allow_v of_o creature_n we_o receive_v our_o wage_n as_o say_v our_o lord_n

himself_o that_o he_o may_v acknowledge_v behold_v i_o be_o before_o god_n behold_v i_o be_o at_o the_o throne_n of_o his_o majesty_n and_o so_o of_o all_o the_o do_n of_o our_o life_n prayer_n must_v he_o remove_v further_a off_o from_o hypocrisy_n &_o untruth_n but_o in_o the_o mean_a while_o this_o be_v very_o ill_o put_v in_o ure_n for_o let_v a_o man_n mark_v how_o the_o hypocrite_n in_o the_o

hypocrisy_n in_o all_o their_o other_o thing_n yet_o be_v there_o most_o of_o all_o in_o the_o prayer_n of_o the_o papist_n and_o on_o our_o side_n will_v god_n there_o be_v the_o like_a

lock_v up_o in_o that_o behalf_n so_o as_o we_o have_v no_o respect_n at_o all_o of_o the_o world_n then_o shall_v there_o be_v another_o manner_n of_o perfectness_n in_o our_o prayer_n than_o there_o be_v &_o those_o that_o have_v no_o fear_n of_o god_n dare_v not_o be_v so_o bold_a as_o to_o call_v upon_o
mouth_n for_o god_n have_v set_v his_o sustenance_n in_o the_o labour_n of_o his_o hand_n if_o i_o do_v he_o wrong_v it_o be_v as_o much_o as_o if_o i_o suck_v the_o blood_n out_o of_o he_o who_o god_n have_v commend_v unto_o i_o and_o who_o i_o be_o bind_v to_o relieve_v you_o see_v then_o how_o every_o man_n ought_v to_o have_v a_o eye_n to_o his_o estate_n and_o i_o have_v allege_v example_n to_o the_o end_n that_o every_o one_o of_o we_o shall_v lay_v it_o forth_o by_o piecemeal_o &_o that_o according_a as_o any_o of_o we_o have_v too_o deal_v with_o our_o neighbour_n we_o shall_v behave_v ourselves_o in_o such_o wise_a as_o we_o may_v give_v no_o man_n occasion_n to_o complain_v of_o we_o and_o furthermore_o also_o that_o every_o man_n shall_v have_v a_o eye_n to_o his_o own_o household_n for_o before_o god_n it_o be_v not_o enough_o for_o a_o faithful_a man_n to_o forbear_v evildoing_a direct_o himself_o but_o also_o he_o will_v have_v all_o crooked_a way_n to_o be_v far_o from_o we_o and_o special_o that_o we_o have_v a_o care_n to_o govern_v our_o house_n that_o god_n may_v be_v honour_v both_o of_o the_o child_n and_o of_o the_o husband_n and_o of_o the_o wife_n and_o of_o the_o master_n &_o of_o the_o menseruant_n and_o of_o the_o make_a servant_n and_o will_v god_n that_o this_o be_v think_v upon_o better_a than_o it_o be_v for_o where_o the_o head_n of_o a_o house_n go_v astray_o and_o have_v no_o fear_n of_o god_n nor_o religion_n in_o they_o there_o it_o be_v to_o be_v see_v that_o all_o go_v to_o wreck_n and_o that_o the_o child_n also_o do_v no_o honour_n to_o their_o father_n &_o mother_n for_o they_o become_v not_o better_o but_o before_o they_o can_v have_v any_o discretion_n you_o shall_v see_v they_o root_v in_o naughtiness_n and_o the_o man_n and_o maiden_n shall_v be_v full_a of_o corruption_n true_a it_o be_v that_o master_n and_o mistress_n can_v tell_v well_o enough_o how_o to_o find_v fault_n when_o their_o servant_n commit_v any_o lewd_a prank_n or_o filche_v any_o thing_n from_o they_o or_o serve_v they_o not_o as_o they_o will_v have_v they_o but_o in_o the_o mean_a while_n if_o god_n be_v offend_v a_o thousand_o way_n it_o make_v no_o matter_n that_o shall_v be_v let_v slip_n so_o much_o the_o more_o therefore_o behove_v it_o we_o to_o mark_v well_o that_o which_o i_o have_v say_v namely_o that_o we_o must_v not_o think_v to_o content_a god_n by_o be_v careful_a to_o serve_v he_o all_o only_a in_o our_o own_o person_n but_o we_o must_v also_o have_v a_o eye_n to_o those_o who_o we_o have_v charge_n of_o that_o we_o keep_v away_o evil_a in_o any_o wise_a assure_v ourselves_o that_o if_o we_o consent_v unto_o it_o we_o must_v be_v wrap_v in_o the_o same_o damnation_n that_o the_o wicked_a be_v but_o if_o we_o be_v so_o diligent_a as_o to_o take_v heed_n to_o it_o let_v we_o not_o doubt_v but_o our_o god_n will_v regard_v we_o with_o mercy_n and_o be_v near_o at_o hand_n to_o we_o with_o all_o blessing_n and_o grace_n according_a as_o be_v promise_v here_o very_o we_o have_v yet_o one_o point_n more_o to_o mark_v which_o be_v that_o god_n favour_n will_v not_o show_v itself_o always_o at_o the_o first_o brunt_n the_o promise_n that_o be_v contain_v here_o be_v take_v out_o of_o the_o law_n or_o at_o leastwise_o be_v of_o the_o same_o effect_n for_o as_o i_o have_v tell_v you_o we_o know_v not_o in_o what_o time_n this_o book_n be_v write_v but_o howsoever_o the_o case_n stand_v we_o see_v that_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n speak_v to_o they_o for_o you_o see_v here_o a_o doctrine_n which_o be_v conformable_a to_o that_o which_o be_v contain_v in_o the_o law_n of_o moses_n where_o our_o lord_n promise_v to_o bliss_n those_o that_o serve_v he_o and_o to_o dwell_v among_o they_o and_o to_o make_v they_o perceive_v how_o available_a his_o presence_n be_v that_o be_v to_o wit_n that_o their_o life_n shall_v be_v happy_a by_o it_o but_o let_v we_o bear_v in_o mind_n that_o which_o i_o have_v touch_v that_o be_v to_o wit_n that_o god_n make_v we_o not_o to_o feel_v his_o favour_n at_o the_o first_o push_n therefore_o whereas_o it_o be_v say_v that_o such_o as_o walk_v in_o the_o fear_n of_o god_n shall_v be_v bliss_v and_o he_o will_v make_v they_o to_o prosper_v it_o be_v not_o mean_v that_o god_n visit_v not_o his_o servant_n in_o such_o wise_a as_o he_o seem_v to_o be_v alienate_v quite_o from_o they_o and_o that_o although_o they_o call_v upon_o he_o they_o must_v be_v fain_o to_o linger_v in_o pain_n so_o as_o they_o wot_v not_o where_o they_o be_v but_o that_o to_o their_o seem_n god_n have_v utter_o forsake_v they_o then_o must_v we_o be_v fain_o to_o walk_v in_o this_o world_n through_o many_o affliction_n notwithstanding_o that_o we_o serve_v god_n but_o heerewithall_o we_o have_v a_o double_a comfort_n which_o be_v that_o on_o the_o one_o side_n it_o be_v certain_a that_o although_o our_o heart_n tend_v unto_o god_n yet_o notwithstanding_o forasmuch_o as_o it_o be_v not_o with_o such_o zeal_n as_o it_o ought_v neither_o do_v we_o serve_v he_o with_o such_o affection_n as_o we_o be_v bind_v too_o do_v therefore_o we_o must_v be_v fain_o to_o suffer_v punishment_n and_o correction_n of_o our_o sin_n but_o yet_o by_o that_o mean_v god_n make_v we_o to_o consider_v our_o own_o want_n that_o we_o may_v humble_v ourselves_o fall_v to_o amendment_n and_o return_v unto_o he_o when_o we_o have_v be_v exercise_v after_o that_o sort_n with_o the_o trouble_n that_o he_o send_v lo_o here_o one_o great_a comfort_n the_o other_o be_v that_o we_o be_v make_v like_o unto_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n that_o like_a as_o he_o be_v enter_v into_o the_o kingdom_n of_o heaven_n by_o tribulation_n and_o death_n even_o

to_o reign_v over_o they_o but_o because_o it_o be_v god_n will_n that_o that_o order_n shall_v be_v among_o man_n and_o now_o it_o be_v say_v that_o god_n will_v pour_v out_o contempt_n and_o

the_o vain_a overween_a that_n be_v in_o the_o unbeliever_n and_o enemy_n of_o god_n where_o be_v the_o sage_a counsellor_n of_o pharaoh_n have_v not_o egypt_n have_v the_o renown_n until_o now_o in_o

own_o wisdom_n and_o strength_n for_o we_o see_v that_o all_o that_o gear_n be_v but_o smoke_n before_o god_n but_o if_o the_o great_a man_n of_o the_o world_n can_v yield_v themselves_o thereunto_o nor_o harken_v to_o this_o doctrine_n at_o leastwise_o let_v their_o example_n serve_v for_o our_o instruction_n let_v we_o think_v upon_o it_o and_o be_v it_o know_v unto_o we_o that_o god_n have_v show_v we_o no_o small_a favour_n in_o that_o he_o set_v king_n and_o prince_n upon_o the_o scaffold_n to_o teach_v we_o to_o the_o end_n that_o every_o of_o we_o shall_v humble_v himself_o and_o

that_o god_n show_v they_o when_o he_o teach_v they_o so_o in_o his_o school_n and_o in_o the_o mean_a while_o leave_v those_o a_o far_o off_o that_o be_v highly_o advance_v in_o the_o world_n herewithal_o also_o let_v we_o mark_v well_o that_o if_o god_n do_v so_o change_v the_o state_n of_o prince_n and_o abate_v the_o force_n of_o those_o that_o seem_v to_o be_v so_o puissant_a and_o

as_o we_o see_v a_o number_n of_o brutish_a folk_n which_o have_v none_o other_o taste_n or_o feeling_n that_o there_o be_v a_o god_n in_o heaven_n but_o for_o that_o he_o feed_v they_o and_o fill_v

all_o thing_n that_o can_v be_v see_v in_o the_o world_n and_o therefore_o let_v we_o not_o say_v i_o believe_v in_o god_n because_o he_o maintain_v i_o because_o he_o give_v i_o health_n and_o because_o he_o nourish_v i_o but_o i_o believe_v in_o god_n because_o he_o have_v give_v i_o heretofore_o some_o taste_n of_o his_o goodness_n and_o power_n in_o have_v a_o care_n of_o this_o body_n which_o be_v but_o rottenness_n so_o as_o i_o see_v he_o show_v himself_o a_o father_n in_o that_o i_o have_v a_o be_v through_o the_o power_n of_o his_o spirit_n i_o believe_v in_o he_o alone_o because_o he_o call_v i_o to_o heaven_n and_o have_v not_o create_v i_o as_o a_o ox_n or_o a_o ass_n to_o live_v here_o a_o little_a while_n but_o have_v form_v i_o after_o his_o own_o image_n to_o the_o intent_n i_o shall_v hope_v for_o the_o inheritance_n of_o his_o kingdom_n and_o be_v partaker_n of_o the_o glory_n of_o his_o son_n i_o believe_v that_o he_o allure_v i_o daily_o thither_o to_o the_o intent_n i_o shall_v not_o doubt_v but_o that_o when_o my_o body_n be_v lay_v in_o the_o grave_n and_o there_o consume_v as_o it_o be_v to_o nothing_o yet_o notwithstanding_o it_o shall_v be_v

thus_o you_o see_v what_o our_o belief_n must_v be_v if_o it_o be_v well_o rule_v and_o if_o we_o be_v once_o so_o well_o dispose_v we_o may_v say_v with_o job_n well_o very_o i_o see_v my_o body_n must_v go_v too_o decay_n look_v what_o freshness_n soever_o be_v in_o it_o it_o diminish_v day_n by_o day_n and_o i_o need_v not_o too_o go_v far_o too_o seek_v death_n for_o i_o see_v not_o so_o small_a a_o infirmity_n in_o my_o flesh_n but_o the_o same_o be_v to_o i_o a_o messenger_n of_o death_n but_o yet_o for_o all_o that_o i_o shall_v see_v my_o god_n if_o we_o can_v speak_v so_o when_o we_o see_v that_o our_o strength_n droup_v and_o vanish_v away_o by_o little_a and_o little_a that_o although_o it_o please_v god_n to_o smite_v we_o in_o such_o wise_a as_o we_o shall_v in_o manner_n rot_v above_o the_o ground_n as_o job_n do_v for_o he_o say_v that_o his_o skin_n be_v wormeaten_v &_o consume_v and_o he_o be_v as_o good_a as_o dead_a and_o yet_o he_o protest_v that_o he_o will_v not_o cease_v look_v unto_o his_o god_n yet_o shall_v we_o not_o cease_v too_o trust_v in_o god_n still_o after_o the_o example_n of_o job._n thus_o you_o see_v that_o the_o greatness_n of_o the_o affliction_n that_o god_n send_v we_o shall_v not_o astonish_v we_o so_o we_o have_v learn_v to_o know_v he_o to_o be_v such_o a_o one_o towards_o we_o as_o he_o be_v indeed_o â–ª_o that_o be_v too_o say_v if_o we_o consider_v well_o to_o what_o end_n he_o have_v create_v we_o and_o still_o maintain_v we_o in_o the_o world_n furthermore_o when_o job_n say_v that_o he_o shall_v see_v his_o redeemer_n in_o his_o flesh_n his_o meaning_n be_v as_o i_o say_v afore_o that_o he_o shall_v be_v restore_v to_o a_o new_a state_n though_o his_o skin_n be_v so_o eat_v as_o it_o be_v for_o he_o say_v express_o that_o his_o bone_n shall_v be_v consume_v and_o nothing_o of_o he_o shall_v remain_v whole_a and_o afterward_o he_o add_v i_o shall_v set_v god_n in_o my_o flesh_n and_o how_o shall_v he_o see_v he_o in_o his_o flesh_n â–ª_o that_o be_v to_o say_v i_o shall_v be_v set_v in_o my_o former_a state_n and_o see_v my_o god_n yet_o again_o and_o so_o he_o confess_v that_o god_n be_v able_a enough_o too_o set_v he_o up_o again_o although_o he_o be_v utter_o consume_v and_o plunge_v into_o a_o bottomless_a pit_n thus_o you_o see_v that_o the_o condition_n whereupon_o we_o must_v

therefore_o let_v we_o say_v i_o trust_v in_o god_n because_o i_o see_v he_o assist_v i_o and_o fail_v i_o not_o in_o any_o thing_n but_o when_o god_n fail_v we_o and_o be_v as_o it_o be_v estrange_v from_o we_o let_v we_o even_o then_o say_v with_o job_n i_o shall_v see_v he_o in_o my_o flesh_n as_o now_o i_o be_o nothing_o i_o
he_o have_v punish_v perjury_n and_o outrage_n when_o man_n pride_n have_v exceed_v so_o far_o as_o it_o can_v no_o long_o be_v bear_v now_o when_o we_o look_v upon_o such_o thing_n ought_v they_o not_o to_o serve_v our_o turn_n at_o this_o day_n also_o then_o let_v we_o remember_v well_o the_o lesson_n that_o be_v give_v we_o here_o namely_o that_o for_o somuch_o as_o god_n have_v ever_o since_o the_o creation_n of_o the_o world_n from_o time_n to_o time_n give_v we_o some_o warning_n too_o show_v we_o that_o he_o be_v the_o judge_n of_o the_o world_n we_o must_v learn_v too_o stand_v in_o awe_n of_o he_o and_o to_o walk_v wary_o that_o the_o punishment_n which_o he_o have_v execute_v upon_o the_o wicked_a may_v be_v lookingglass_n for_o we_o and_o bridle_n too_o restrain_v we_o but_o now_o let_v we_o return_v too_o that_o he_o say_v that_o the_o highness_n of_o the_o wicked_a be_v but_o of_o short_a tyme._n and_o why_o for_o although_o they_o be_v lift_v up_o to_o heaven_n or_o reach_v up_o to_o the_o cloud_n with_o their_o head_n yet_o shall_v they_o not_o continue_v but_o god_n will_v throw_v they_o down_o out_o of_o hand_n here_o job_n continue_v the_o matter_n that_o we_o see_v before_o that_o be_v to_o wit_n that_o god_n will_v now_o and_o then_o suffer_v the_o wicked_a to_o be_v advance_v and_o too_o flourish_v but_o it_o shall_v not_o endure_v long_o now_o have_v sophar_n consider_v this_o well_o he_o will_v no_o more_o have_v stand_v in_o contention_n with_o job_n but_o forasmuch_o as_o he_o take_v a_o general_a sentence_n and_o apply_v it_o

the_o wicked_a but_o throw_v they_o down_o because_o he_o hate_v and_o abhor_v they_o if_o we_o ourselves_o do_v amiss_o we_o will_v have_v god_n to_o spare_v we_o &_o there_o be_v none_o of_o we_o but_o he_o think_v god_n to_o be_v overhasty_a in_o punish_v we_o when_o we_o have_v commit_v one_o sin_n two_o or_o three_o if_o god_n chastise_v we_o we_o think_v it_o too_o soon_o we_o can_v away_o

but_o what_o be_v to_o be_v do_v on_o the_o contrary_a part_n we_o must_v be_v content_v too_o see_v the_o wicked_a triumph_n for_o a_o time_n in_o the_o world_n and_o too_o have_v their_o full_a

why_o for_o by_o that_o mean_a god_n intend_v too_o try_v our_o faith_n if_o we_o see_v thing_n to_o be_v such_o as_o they_o shall_v be_v in_o the_o end_n as_o god_n show_v we_o they_o by_o his_o word_n will_v we_o put_v any_o trust_n in_o he_o no._n we_o will_v believe_v nothing_o till_o we_o see_v it_o but_o when_o as_o we_o perceive_v not_o the_o thing_n that_o god_n speak_v so_o soon_o as_o we_o will_v and_o yet_o nevertheless_o continue_v still_o steadfast_a in_o his_o word_n rest_v upon_o that_o which_o have_v proceed_v out_o of_o his_o mouth_n â–ª_o that_o be_v the_o thing_n wherein_o we_o show_v ourselves_o too_o believe_v he_o and_o so_o let_v we_o mark_v well_o that_o when_o god_n do_v so_o lay_v the_o bridle_n upon_o wicked_a and_o ungodly_a folk_n neck_n it_o be_v to_o try_v whither_o we_o have_v serve_v he_o pure_o and_o whither_o we_o have_v patient_o give_v he_o leave_v too_o do_v what_o he_o will_v without_o lift_v up_o of_o ourselves_o against_o he_o also_o there_o be_v yet_o more_o that_o god_n will_v have_v we_o too_o learn_v that_o our_o paradise_n be_v not_o in_o this_o world_n but_o we_o will_v fain_o live_v in_o pleasure_n and_o that_o god_n shall_v dandle_v we_o like_o little_a cockneye_n that_o be_v not_o for_o our_o behoof_n but_o clean_o contrary_a for_o unless_o god_n draw_v we_o to_o he_o by_o affliction_n we_o will_v never_o by_o our_o good_a will_n fleet_n out_o of_o this_o world_n we_o be_v as_o much_o entangle_v here_o as_o may_v be_v therefore_o we_o have_v need_v to_o be_v draw_v to_o the_o heavenly_a kingdom_n by_o many_o tribulation_n and_o that_o god_n shall_v enforce_v we_o too_o come_v to_o he_o and_o yet_o therewithal_o also_o show_v we_o that_o he_o will_v root_v out_o the_o wicked_a though_o they_o run_v riot_n never_o so_o much_o when_o we_o see_v this_o we_o shall_v have_v no_o cause_n too_o bear_v they_o any_o grudge_n so_o then_o as_o i_o have_v say_v already_o let_v we_o learn_v to_o overcome_v the_o say_a temptation_n when_o it_o be_v trump_v in_o our_o way_n and_o if_o the_o wicked_a happen_v to_o be_v advance_v yea_o even_o to_o reach_v of_o the_o cloud_n with_o their_o head_n let_v we_o understand_v that_o we_o must_v not_o be_v grieve_v at_o it_o as_o though_o god_n be_v asleep_a or_o as_o though_o he_o regard_v not_o the_o world_n ne_fw-mi have_v any_o care_n of_o it_o but_o contrariwise_o let_v we_o assure_v ourselves_o that_o god_n lift_v of_o they_o up_o be_v too_o strike_v they_o quite_o down_o at_o one_o blow_n yea_o even_o with_o a_o deadly_a fall_n for_o if_o their_o fall_n be_v but_o as_o they_o stand_v upon_o their_o foot_n then_o may_v they_o well_o escape_v with_o the_o break_n of_o some_o bone_n but_o when_o god_n suffer_v they_o too_o be_v hoist_v up_o so_o high_a he_o send_v they_o down_o to_o their_o utter_a destruction_n thus_o you_o see_v to_o what_o intent_n sophar_n say_v that_o the_o loftiness_n of_o the_o wicked_a be_v but_o for_o a_o short_a tyme._n and_o now_o he_o add_v that_o their_o joy_n shall_v be_v of_o â–ª_o not_o long_a continuance_n whereby_o he_o mean_v that_o the_o despiser_n of_o god_n and_o all_o such_o as_o be_v tie_v to_o the_o world_n do_v over_o joy_v themselves_o in_o the_o present_a prosperity_n and_o be_v utter_o drunken_a with_o it_o true_a it_o be_v that_o the_o child_n of_o god_n may_v well_o be_v

give_v we_o health_n quietness_n and_o all_o other_o like_o thing_n we_o may_v well_o be_v merry_a yea_o and_o we_o ought_v to_o be_v so_o according_a as_o it_o be_v say_v in_o the_o law_n thou_o shall_v eat_v and_o drink_v before_o thy_o god_n and_o be_v merry_a but_o yet_o must_v not_o the_o faithful_a settle_v their_o joy_n upon_o the_o present_a benefit_n nor_o hold_v themselves_o tie_v only_o unto_o they_o yea_o rather_o if_o they_o want_v meat_n and_o drink_v or_o be_v trouble_v with_o sickness_n they_o must_v not_o therefore_o cease_v to_o trust_v in_o god_n but_o must_v learn_v

to_o god_n &_o say_v that_o they_o seek_v nothing_o else_o but_o to_o thrust_v he_o out_o of_o all_o authority_n that_o they_o may_v more_o easy_o tread_v he_o under_o foot_n oh_o say_v they_o we_o

let_v we_o learn_v to_o humble_v ourselves_o and_o whensoever_o god_n send_v his_o word_n amongst_o we_o let_v we_o tremble_v at_o it_o &_o thereby_o declare_v that_o we_o seek_v nothing_o else_o but_o to_o be_v present_a with_o our_o god_n always_o to_o behold_v he_o and_o to_o walk_v as_o they_o that_o know_v very_o well_o that_o we_o must_v make_v a_o account_n of_o our_o whole_a life_n before_o he_o and_o that_o we_o can_v not_o escape_v his_o hand_n and_o moreover_o let_v we_o long_o for_o the_o presence_n of_o god_n for_o it_o be_v not_o enough_o that_o we_o have_v our_o eye_n upon_o god_n but_o we_o must_v desire_v to_o be_v always_o in_o his_o sight_n &_o under_o his_o guide_n for_o sometime_o the_o most_o wicked_a will_v have_v a_o eye_n unto_o god_n but_o it_o shall_v be_v as_o the_o galley_n slave_n do_v who_o fall_v to_o row_v when_o they_o see_v themselves_o fast_a chain_v and_o sure_o beat_v then_o they_o must_v needs_o do_v it_o but_o it_o be_v of_o force_n

say_v unto_o the_o mountain_n cover_v we_o you_o see_v how_o the_o wicked_a do_v always_o flee_v from_o the_o presence_n of_o god_n because_o it_o be_v terrible_a unto_o they_o now_o on_o our_o

such_o be_v the_o state_n and_o condition_n of_o all_o those_o that_o exempt_v themselves_o from_o the_o service_n of_o god_n on_o the_o contrary_a part_n when_o we_o serve_v our_o god_n it_o be_v

they_o be_v confound_v this_o judgement_n of_o god_n be_v daily_o see_v and_o therefore_o we_o be_v warn_v that_o although_o god_n give_v we_o all_o that_o we_o can_v wish_v so_o as_o we_o think_v we_o shall_v never_o want_v we_o must_v not_o fall_v asleep_a in_o it_o know_v that_o our_o life_n be_v subject_a to_o so_o many_o change_n as_o you_o will_v wonder_v to_o see_v it_o therefore_o let_v we_o watch_v in_o call_v upon_o god_n let_v we_o watch_v that_o we_o rest_v not_o upon_o the_o thing_n that_o we_o have_v in_o our_o own_o hand_n let_v we_o watch_v to_o know_v that_o we_o have_v

goodness_n this_o be_v the_o warning_n which_o we_o ought_v to_o gather_v of_o this_o sentence_n but_o this_o be_v not_o see_v always_o therefore_o as_o i_o say_v let_v we_o learn_v not_o to_o make_v a_o general_a rule_n of_o it_o and_o although_o the_o rich_a man_n overflow_v in_o wealth_n and_o have_v a_o great_a train_n about_o they_o and_o every_o man_n labour_v to_o do_v they_o service_n and_o final_o that_o they_o want_v nothing_o let_v we_o not_o think_v that_o god_n have_v give_v over_o his_o office_n but_o that_o he_o reserve_v too_o himself_o the_o judgement_n which_o he_o execute_v upon_o some_o to_o the_o end_n we_o shall_v not_o think_v but_o that_o he_o be_v able_a too_o accomplish_v it_o in_o this_o world_n if_o it_o please_v he_o other_o man_n take_v this_o

so_o the_o mean_a shall_v be_v that_o man_n shall_v look_v about_o they_o where_o those_o folk_n be_v become_v that_o live_v in_o wealth_n and_o bare_a so_o great_a port_n in_o the_o world_n and_o not_o see_v they_o any_o more_o according_a as_o it_o be_v say_v in_o the_o seven_o and_o thirty_o psalm_n i_o see_v he_o perk_v up_o as_o a_o high_a cedar_n in_o mount_n lybanus_n and_o he_o touch_v

such_o wise_a that_o the_o remembrance_n of_o they_o be_v wipe_v out_o of_o the_o world_n and_o this_o sense_n will_v agree_v well_o to_o this_o text_n furthermore_o there_o be_v othersome_a which_o understand_v not_o this_o sentence_n neither_o of_o death_n nor_o of_o burial_n as_o be_v expound_v yesterday_o but_o as_o though_o it_o be_v say_v that_o when_o the_o wicked_a man_n lay_v he_o down_o to_o rest_n he_o shall_v find_v none_o yet_o notwithstanding_o the_o easy_a interpretation_n be_v to_o say_v that_o the_o wicked_a shall_v not_o escape_v but_o that_o god_n will_v show_v his_o justice_n upon_o they_o and_o as_o i_o have_v say_v this_o come_v to_o pass_v howbeit_o not_o always_o so_o then_o we_o must_v not_o ever_o seek_v the_o execution_n of_o god_n justice_n in_o this_o

imagine_v upon_o then_o let_v we_o understand_v that_o our_o lord_n delay_v his_o judgement_n when_o he_o think_v good_a and_o make_v they_o not_o manifest_v to_o the_o world_n now_o it_o be_v consequent_o say_v that_o fearfulness_n shall_v overtake_v the_o wicked_a man_n as_o a_o rage_n of_o water_n he_o speak_v here_o of_o water_n but_o he_o mean_v that_o it_o be_v as_o a_o sudden_a storm_n when_o a_o tempest_n or_o a_o whirl_n wind_n come_v by_o night_n as_o this_o judgement_n of_o god_n be_v common_a so_o it_o be_v also_o notable_a that_o be_v to_o wit_n that_o god_n send_v such_o fearfulness_n upon_o the_o wicked_a as_o they_o know_v not_o where_o to_o become_v and_o that_o the_o same_o come_v as_o a_o storm_n and_o as_o a_o tempest_n in_o the_o night_n which_o a_o man_n foresee_v not_o ne_o yet_o take_v heed_n of_o this_o be_v speak_v purposely_o because_o the_o wicked_a do_v bear_v themselves_o in_o hand_n that_o god_n ought_v to_o let_v they_o alone_o in_o rest_n and_o yet_o notwithstanding_o though_o they_o be_v not_o trouble_v they_o can_v not_o be_v thorough_o in_o quiet_a because_o they_o have_v a_o evil_a conscience_n but_o yet_o they_o behight_n themselves_o wonder_v and_o as_o it_o be_v say_v in_o the_o prophet_n special_o in_o isaiah_n they_o make_v a_o
wretch_n and_o tell_v we_o that_o we_o must_v not_o advance_v ourselves_o so_o high_a as_o too_o think_v to_o attain_v to_o god_n secret_n but_o that_o we_o must_v confess_v ourselves_o to_o be_v destitute_a of_o wit_n and_o reason_n thus_o than_o you_o see_v that_o the_o first_o lesson_n which_o we_o must_v learn_v when_o we_o come_v to_o god_n school_n be_v to_o become_v fool_n as_o saint_n paul_n say_v true_o this_o seem_v strange_a too_o we_o but_o yet_o must_v we_o pass_v that_o way_n so_o that_o if_o we_o intend_v to_o be_v teach_v at_o god_n hand_n and_o that_o he_o shall_v play_v the_o schoolmaster_n towards_o we_o we_o must_v become_v fool_n that_o be_v to_o say_v we_o must_v acknowledge_v that_o there_o be_v not_o so_o much_o as_o one_o drop_n of_o reason_n or_o understanding_n in_o we_o but_o that_o we_o be_v more_o destitute_a of_o it_o than_o the_o brute_n beast_n be_v and_o have_v less_o skill_n and_o discretion_n in_o we_o than_o they_o have_v and_o therefore_o let_v we_o learn_v to_o humble_v ourselves_o to_o the_o end_n that_o god_n may_v reach_v we_o his_o hand_n sith_o the_o case_n stand_v so_o what_o must_v we_o do_v now_o first_o let_v we_o understand_v that_o too_o comprehend_v god_n secret_n he_o must_v be_v fain_o too_o give_v we_o his_o holy_a spirit_n and_o to_o enlighten_v our_o darkness_n and_o forsomuch_o as_o we_o be_v so_o far_o too_o seek_v he_o must_v show_v we_o what_o be_v for_o we_o to_o know_v and_o we_o must_v not_o presume_v to_o have_v any_o knowledge_n other_o than_o he_o give_v we_o mark_n that_o for_o one_o point_n but_o we_o must_v also_o consider_v further_o that_o when_o we_o have_v receive_v this_o heavenly_a light_n and_o gift_n of_o understanding_n that_o come_v of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n we_o must_v also_o come_v to_o the_o holy_a scripture_n and_o not_o take_v upon_o we_o too_o search_v further_o of_o god_n work_v and_o judgement_n than_o be_v contain_v there_o then_o let_v we_o content_v ourselves_o with_o the_o knowledge_n that_o god_n show_v and_o teach_v we_o and_o let_v we_o have_v the_o mildness_n to_o say_v well_o lord_n whensoever_o thou_o tell_v we_o what_o thou_o will_v

for_o our_o own_o behoof_n in_o this_o doctrine_n be_v first_o not_o to_o thrust_v forth_o ourselves_o with_o fond_a presumption_n to_o know_v more_o than_o be_v permit_v we_o but_o too_o pray_v god_n to_o govern_v we_o in_o that_o behalf_n and_o to_o enlighten_v we_o with_o his_o holy_a spirit_n and_o second_o to_o hold_v ourselves_o to_o his_o word_n &_o to_o suffer_v ourselves_o to_o be_v

for_o our_o welfare_n and_o now_o let_v we_o fall_v down_o before_o the_o face_n of_o our_o good_a god_n with_o acknowledgement_n of_o our_o sin_n pray_v he_o too_o make_v we_o feel_v they_o better_o than_o we_o have_v do_v that_o in_o behold_v his_o judgement_n we_o may_v always_o be_v provoke_v to_o walk_v the_o more_o in_o his_o fear_n and_o that_o when_o we_o have_v profit_v in_o sound_n

be_v in_o a_o readiness_n before_o hand_n to_o the_o end_n we_o be_v not_o trouble_v when_o our_o lord_n shall_v visit_v we_o in_o that_o manner_n and_o we_o have_v special_a need_n to_o be_v warn_v hereof_o because_o the_o state_n of_o christian_n be_v to_o be_v changeable_a for_o s._n paul_n say_v that_o both_o himself_o and_o his_o fellow_n be_v without_o rest_n he_o use_v that_o word_n not_o that_o we_o ought_v not_o to_o be_v constant_a for_o it_o behove_v we_o to_o determine_v with_o ourselves_o never_o too_o swerve_v but_o as_o touch_v the_o outward_a and_o visible_a state_n too_o the_o worldward_n we_o must_v be_v fain_o to_o be_v fleeting_a and_o without_o any_o rest_n so_o then_o see_v that_o god_n have_v call_v we_o thereunto_o let_v every_o one_o of_o we_o take_v heed_n

that_o which_o he_o can_v perform_v behold_v here_o two_o thing_n which_o we_o have_v to_o mark_v the_o one_o be_v that_o what_o prosperity_n soever_o we_o have_v the_o same_o be_v no_o certain_a and_o abide_a state_n and_o why_o for_o so_o be_v the_o good_a pleasure_n of_o god_n like_a as_o if_o a_o prince_n shall_v give_v a_o man_n the_o possession_n of_o some_o lordship_n not_o in_o

to_o know_v that_o affliction_n serve_v we_o for_o medicine_n but_o it_o behoove_v we_o also_o to_o consider_v for_o what_o disease_n and_o then_o will_v we_o like_v the_o better_a of_o they_o if_o

then_o be_v it_o needful_a that_o we_o shall_v be_v handle_v with_o such_o rigour_n as_o we_o oftentimes_o be_v yea_o &_o if_o he_o bear_v not_o with_o our_o frailty_n and_o feebleness_n he_o shall_v be_v fain_o to_o use_v a_o far_o great_a roughness_n towards_o we_o therefore_o howsoever_o a_o man_n be_v afflict_v he_o ought_v to_o bear_v it_o patient_o assure_v himself_o that_o god_n do_v it_o not_o without_o cause_n no_o nor_o even_o without_o a_o necessary_a cause_n also_o therewithal_o we_o have_v to_o mark_v the_o comparison_n which_o be_v set_v between_o the_o grave_n &_o the_o light_n of_o life_n what_o be_v it_o when_o god_n with_o draw_v we_o back_o from_o death_n and_o why_o do_v he_o bring_v we_o to_o the_o light_n of_o life_n you_o see_v on_o the_o one_o side_n a_o extreme_a

have_v great_a store_n both_o of_o wisdom_n and_o strength_n but_o contrariwise_o we_o see_v that_o god_n have_v need_v to_o correct_v by_o force_n this_o curse_a affection_n of_o desire_v to_o know_v

make_v the_o same_o conclusion_n in_o the_o foresay_a text_n which_o i_o touch_v where_o he_o cite_v the_o say_n of_o the_o prophet_n isaiah_n therefore_o after_o he_o have_v say_v that_o the_o

for_o we_o therefore_o when_o as_o we_o know_v our_o own_o infirmity_n let_v we_o pray_v he_o too_o enlighten_v we_o by_o his_o holy_a spirit_n that_o we_o may_v know_v the_o thing_n which_o

may_v be_v glorify_v so_o much_o the_o more_o at_o our_o hand_n again_o we_o see_v yesterday_o what_o be_v discourse_v concern_v the_o elephant_n which_o be_v a_o terrible_a huge_a beast_n and_o enough_o too_o scare_v we_o out_o of_o our_o wit_n now_o than_o if_o we_o tremble_v at_o the_o sight_n of_o a_o beast_n shall_v we_o play_v the_o bold_a fellow_n against_o god_n to_o contend_v with_o he_o when_o he_o chastize_v we_o and_o to_o stomach_n the_o matter_n when_o he_o intend_v to_o humble_v we_o shall_v we_o be_v such_o fool_n as_o to_o murmur_v at_o his_o justice_n or_o to_o gainsay_v he_o in_o any_o thing_n or_o to_o desire_v to_o deface_v or_o diminish_v his_o sovereignty_n so_o then_o see_v that_o the_o beast_n do_v make_v man_n to_o tremble_v let_v they_o consider_v their_o own_o madness_n in_o match_v themselves_o with_o god_n howbeit_o before_o i_o go_v any_o further_a whereas_o here_o be_v so_o long_a a_o discourse_n upon_o the_o say_a kind_n of_o beast_n of_o the_o land_n which_o i_o say_v be_v a_o elephant_n albeit_o that_o it_o be_v name_v here_o by_o the_o general_a term_n of_o behemoth_n and_o also_o upon_o the_o leviathan_n we_o have_v too_o mark_v

have_v go_v about_o too_o prove_v that_o fantastical_a device_n of_o they_o by_o this_o that_o in_o the_o end_n it_o be_v say_v that_o the_o say_a whale_n be_v the_o king_n of_o the_o child_n of_o pride_n but_o in_o speak_v of_o the_o other_o kind_n of_o beast_n that_o i_o touch_v yesterday_o it_o be_v say_v that_o god_n make_v they_o to_o eat_v hay_n and_o grass_n like_o oxen._n we_o see_v then_o that_o his_o intent_n be_v too_o show_v we_o god_n mighty_a power_n in_o the_o thing_n that_o be_v too_o be_v see_v and_o not_o to_o describe_v the_o devil_n too_o we_o as_o touch_v the_o word_n leviathan_n through_o the_o whole_a scripture_n it_o signify_v a_o whale_n and_o we_o see_v it_o too_o be_v so_o in_o the_o hundred_o and_o four_o psalm_n where_o the_o hebrew_n word_n leviathan_n be_v translate_v a_o whale_n and_o it_o be_v well_o enough_o know_v that_o there_o the_o prophet_n speak_v of_o god_n wonder_n which_o man_n see_v in_o the_o sea_n yea_o much_o more_o than_o upon_o the_o land_n there_o be_v one_o peremptory_a reason_n too_o show_v we_o that_o we_o must_v take_v this_o text_n simple_o as_o it_o stand_v and_o not_o shift_o for_o we_o have_v see_v heretofore_o how_o it_o be_v god_n intent_n to_o teach_v man_n after_o a_o gross_a and_o homely_a manner_n according_a to_o their_o own_o small_a capacity_n and_o that_o his_o do_v thereof_o be_v to_o the_o end_n that_o his_o mighty_a power_n shall_v be_v the_o better_o prove_v unto_o they_o moreover_o he_o mean_v also_o to_o upbraid_v they_o with_o their_o folly_n in_o that_o they_o dare_v set_v themselves_o against_o he_o forsomuch_o as_o the_o very_a beast_n be_v able_a to_o reprove_v they_o wherefore_o let_v we_o mark_v well_o that_o here_o god_n give_v man_n a_o lesson_n thereby_o too_o scorn_v their_o pride_n in_o send_v they_o to_o the_o brute_n beast_n but_o this_o can_v take_v no_o place_n if_o it_o be_v speak_v of_o the_o devil_n and_o whereas_o his_o will_n be_v that_o the_o whale_n shall_v he_o the_o king_n of_o all_o the_o child_n of_o pride_n it_o be_v not_o for_o that_o the_o beast_n have_v any_o such_o affection_n but_o rather_o it_o be_v say_v too_o compare_v man_n with_o the_o whale_n as_o if_o our_o lord_n shall_v say_v it_o be_v true_a that_o man_n will_v lift_v up_o their_o sheeld_v very_o high_a and_o fetch_v leap_v above_o the_o cloud_n but_o when_o they_o have_v gather_v all_o the_o force_n they_o can_v and_o presume_v to_o the_o uttermost_a what_o be_v it_o in_o comparison_n of_o the_o whale_n when_o a_o man_n have_v vaunt_a himself_o to_o the_o uttermost_a let_v he_o but_o come_v to_o encounter_v with_o a_o whale_n and_o the_o whale_n shall_v have_v more_o cause_n to_o vaunt_v himself_o than_o he_o for_o if_o a_o man_n compare_v he_o with_o a_o house_n or_o a_o tower_n if_o a_o man_n compare_v he_o with_o artillery_n or_o if_o a_o man_n compare_v he_o with_o a_o mountain_n he_o shall_v find_v all_o these_o quality_n in_o he_o yea_o he_o shall_v find_v such_o terrible_a force_n in_o he_o as_o be_v able_a too_o turn_v up_o ship_n upside_o down_o and_o where_o be_v the_o man_n that_o can_v approach_v unto_o such_o strength_n we_o see_v then_o that_o god_n have_v show_v express_o that_o we_o shall_v always_o be_v overcome_v by_o the_o whale_n and_o that_o therefore_o our_o pride_n be_v to_o fond_a and_o special_o that_o when_o we_o become_v so_o bold_a as_o to_o lift_v up_o ourselves_o against_o he_o and_o too_o go_v about_o to_o pluck_v from_o he_o the_o thing_n that_o belong_v too_o he_o and_o to_o rob_v he_o of_o his_o righteousness_n in_o so_o do_v we_o must_v needs_o be_v put_v to_o shame_n yea_o even_o without_o god_n come_v down_o from_o heaven_n and_o without_o any_o show_n of_o his_o majesty_n for_o the_o very_a beast_n be_v enough_o to_o maintain_v his_o honour_n nevertheless_o true_o by_o convey_v the_o discourse_n from_o the_o one_o too_o the_o other_o a_o man_n may_v well_o use_v this_o similitude_n of_o the_o whale_n and_o the_o elephant_n to_o make_v man_n perceive_v how_o great_o the_o power_n of_o the_o devil_n ought_v to_o fray_v we_o see_v he_o be_v term_v the_o prince_n of_o the_o air_n and_o of_o the_o world_n not_o without_o cause_n do_v god_n give_v he_o that_o title_n for_o it_o be_v to_o the_o intent_n that_o see_v we_o be_v so_o weak_a of_o ourselves_o and_o have_v so_o mighty_a and_o strong_a a_o enemy_n we_o shall_v walk_v in_o fear_n therefore_o we_o may_v well_o from_o the_o one_o to_o the_o other_o take_v a_o good_a warning_n that_o if_o we_o will_v not_o be_v subject_a to_o god_n we_o must_v be_v bondslave_n to_o satan_n and_o he_o shall_v overmaster_v we_o well_o enough_o so_o as_o we_o shall_v have_v no_o strength_n to_o withstand_v he_o as_o for_o example_n whereas_o the_o creation_n of_o the_o world_n be_v speak_v of_o moses_n treat_v not_o of_o the_o angel_n for_o he_o mean_v to_o be_v a_o teacher_n to_o the_o little_a and_o unlerned_a one_o and_o therefore_o he_o set_v down_o but_o only_o those_o thing_n which_o be_v see_v with_o our_o eye_n but_o yet_o for_o all_o that_o the_o present_a light_n which_o be_v perceive_v must_v lead_v we_o

see_v god_n majesty_n shine_v forth_o every_o where_o let_v we_o understand_v that_o there_o be_v a_o far_o great_a fullness_n and_o perfection_n of_o light_n in_o the_o angel_n and_o in_o all_o thing_n that_o concern_v the_o heavenly_a life_n you_o see_v then_o that_o it_o be_v a_o good_a conveyance_n when_o we_o go_v so_o by_o degree_n from_o the_o least_o thing_n to_o the_o great_a and_o from_o the_o low_a to_o the_o high_a but_o yet_o howsoever_o we_o deal_v we_o must_v hold_v we_o still_o to_o the_o simplicity_n of_o the_o text_n for_o it_o be_v a_o evil_a thing_n too_o dally_v with_o the_o holy_a scripture_n by_o transform_v of_o it_o into_o allegory_n neither_o ought_v allegory_n too_o be_v draw_v but_o out_o of_o a_o natural_a meaning_n as_o we_o see_v that_o saint_n

and_o after_o he_o have_v speak_v of_o many_o other_o sort_n of_o beast_n here_o he_o set_v the_o elephant_n before_o we_o which_o be_v so_o terrible_a as_o they_o must_v needs_o amaze_v we_o for_o in_o the_o huge_a bigness_n of_o their_o body_n we_o behold_v miracle_n without_o number_n we_o see_v on_o the_o one_o side_n how_o they_o surmount_v we_o and_o we_o see_v on_o the_o other_o side_n

in_o this_o case_n that_o the_o light_n of_o the_o sun_n be_v common_a both_o to_o good_a and_o bad_a but_o true_o herein_o we_o ought_v to_o consider_v god_n goodness_n the_o better_a according_a
