which_o i_o mention_v before_o first_o comparative_a hatred_n which_o be_v when_o something_o be_v prefer_v before_o god_n in_o our_o affection_n and_o prize_v above_o he_o and_o this_o be_v do_v in_o

we_o be_v beside_o the_o love_n of_o god_n that_o shall_v make_v we_o his_o servant_n we_o will_v hate_v he_o we_o must_v be_v so_o far_o from_o serve_v any_o thing_n before_o he_o that_o we_o have_v no_o liberty_n to_o serve_v any_o thing_n beside_o he_o if_o we_o mean_v to_o stay_v in_o his_o service_n this_o text_n exclude_v not_o only_o all_o superior_n that_o may_v outstrip_v he_o but_o all_o

and_o so_o discover_v themselves_o and_o in_o particular_a because_o of_o the_o infinite_a eminency_n of_o god_n goodness_n above_o any_o other_o thing_n and_o so_o of_o our_o obligation_n to_o proportionable_a love_n but_o i_o need_v not_o stay_v long_o in_o this_o it_o be_v so_o plain_a that_o man_n by_o nature_n be_v whole_o averse_a from_o god_n and_o convert_v themselves_o to_o the_o creature_n and_o therefore_o enemy_n and_o hater_n of_o god_n second_o the_o second_o degree_n be_v of_o negative_a hatred_n namely_o where_o there_o be_v no_o love_n at_o all_o and_o this_o be_v easy_a to_o be_v observe_v in_o all_o natural_a man_n towards_o god_n for_o whereas_o it_o be_v the_o nature_n of_o love_n wheresoever_o it_o be_v root_v to_o have_v the_o command_n of_o the_o whole_a

this_o be_v to_o be_v see_v in_o a_o peculiar_a manner_n and_o therefore_o we_o be_v command_v to_o love_v he_o with_o all_o our_o heart_n and_o all_o our_o soul_n and_o all_o our_o might_n and_o

be_v evil_a second_o relative_n in_o respect_n of_o some_o other_o thing_n and_o so_o we_o see_v there_o be_v a_o natural_a hatred_n or_o opposition_n between_o some_o creature_n which_o be_v proper_o
