consideration_n of_o his_o innocence_n will_v never_o move_v i_o to_o account_v he_o my_o redeemer_n for_o without_o this_o what_o be_v his_o innocence_n to_o i_o but_o when_o thy_o heart_n be_v persuade_v of_o these_o two_o thing_n you_o will_v marvel_v what_o great_a and_o marvelous_a effect_n will_v follow_v in_o the_o heart_n of_o a_o faithful_a man_n when_o i_o look_v to_o his_o innocence_n i_o will_v be_v move_v with_o commiseration_n towards_o he_o i_o will_v pity_v he_o as_o the_o woman_n follow_v he_o out_o of_o jerusalem_n weep_v and_o pity_v his_o innocence_n luke_n 23.17_o and_o when_o i_o see_v that_o he_o be_v most_o innocent_a in_o himself_o be_v become_v guilty_a for_o i_o then_o arise_v in_o my_o heart_n a_o dolour_n and_o displeasure_n for_o that_o that_o i_o shall_v be_v the_o cause_n that_o he_o suffer_v innocent_o i_o be_o move_v for_o that_o that_o i_o shall_v have_v pierce_v the_o lord_n through_o with_o my_o sin_n i_o will_v be_v move_v with_o sadness_n as_o it_o be_v say_v in_o the_o first_o chapter_n of_o the_o revelation_n and_o seven_o verse_n they_o shall_v wail_v before_o he_o who_o they_o pierce_v through_o then_o again_o when_o i_o find_v myself_o disburden_v of_o my_o sin_n and_o guiltiness_n through_o his_o guiltiness_n my_o heart_n will_v be_v fill_v with_o a_o joy_n unspeakable_a it_o be_v a_o wonder_n what_o a_o joy_n will_v be_v mingle_v with_o the_o displeasure_n that_o the_o world_n will_v wonder_v that_o these_o contrary_a effect_n shall_v be_v in_o the_o heart_n of_o a_o christian_a this_o be_v the_o effect_n of_o repentance_n if_o any_o man_n have_v feel_v it_o again_o when_o i_o see_v that_o he_o have_v love_v i_o my_o heart_n will_v melt_v with_o love_n to_o he_o again_o as_o paul_n say_v in_o the_o 2_o epistle_n to_o the_o corinthian_n 5.14_o 15._o the_o love_n of_o christ_n constrain_v i_o &_o bind_v up_o fast_o my_o sense_n because_o that_o once_o we_o know_v that_o we_o be_v dead_a and_o he_o have_v die_v for_o we_o and_o he_o to_o who_o much_o be_v forgive_v love_v much_o luke_n chap._n vii_o verse_n xlvii_o brethren_n you_o that_o have_v hear_v of_o the_o history_n of_o that_o notable_a martyr_n john_n husse_n who_o be_v burn_v for_o the_o love_n of_o christ_n now_o when_o he_o be_v bring_v forth_o to_o be_v burn_v quick_a than_o his_o executer_n put_v a_o paper_n upon_o his_o head_n whereupon_o be_v picture_v three_o devil_n with_o this_o title_n set_v over_o their_o head_n haeresiarcha_n the_o which_o when_o he_o see_v he_o say_v my_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n for_o my_o sake_n do_v wear_v a_o crown_n of_o thorn_n why_o shall_v not_o i_o therefore_o for_o his_o sake_n wear_v this_o light_a crown_n be_v it_o never_o so_o ignominious_a suffer_v on_o thou_o shall_v not_o suffer_v the_o extremity_n thou_o who_o will_v suffer_v pain_n or_o shame_n for_o he_o thou_o shall_v be_v partaker_n of_o glory_n with_o he_o now_o i_o go_v to_o the_o rest_n of_o the_o mean_n that_o pilate_n use_v pilate_n when_o this_o be_v do_v he_o go_v into_o the_o common_a hall_n and_o come_v out_o himself_o and_o the_o four_o time_n he_o witness_v of_o the_o innocence_n of_o jesus_n that_o he_o can_v find_v no_o fault_n in_o he_o i_o see_v this_o and_o it_o appear_v well_o by_o the_o testimony_n that_o he_o give_v to_o jesus_n that_o all_o that_o pilate_n do_v to_o jesus_n be_v against_o conscience_n for_o will_v he_o immediate_o after_o he_o have_v scourge_v he_o have_v cry_v out_o to_o cleanse_v he_o if_o his_o conscience_n have_v not_o tell_v he_o that_o he_o be_v just_a he_o do_v it_o to_o a_o good_a end_n to_o deliver_v he_o from_o death_n this_o be_v the_o do_v of_o ungodlie_a man_n who_o be_v not_o draw_v out_o of_o the_o puddle_n of_o nature_n they_o will_v do_v a_o small_a evil_n for_o a_o great_a good_a as_o they_o think_v against_o conscience_n they_o will_v not_o start_v at_o a_o stray_n but_o behold_v the_o end_n it_o may_v be_v that_o a_o good_a thing_n may_v follow_v thereupon_o yet_o thou_o shall_v have_v no_o reward_n for_o it_o beware_v to_o sin_n against_o conscience_n and_o when_o thou_o go_v about_o to_o do_v any_o thing_n that_o thy_o conscience_n forbid_v thou_o leave_v it_o off_o and_o let_v it_o be_v or_o else_o thou_o shall_v go_v forward_o till_o thou_o crucify_v christ_n and_o make_v shipwreck_n of_o faith_n therefore_o do_v nothing_o against_o conscience_n yea_o albeit_o it_o be_v a_o good_a deed_n the_o third_o thing_n he_o cause_v jesus_n to_o be_v bring_v forth_o before_o the_o people_n with_o a_o crown_n of_o thorn_n and_o a_o purple_a garment_n to_o see_v if_o the_o jew_n will_v pity_v he_o to_o see_v a_o innocent_a man_n so_o handle_v it_o will_v have_v move_v any_o man_n to_o pity_n then_o he_o say_v behold_v the_o man_n i_o have_v do_v enough_o unto_o he_o you_o may_v be_v satisfy_v now_o i_o see_v here_o that_o even_o during_o the_o time_n that_o he_o see_v jesus_n misuse_v so_o sharp_o this_o do_v show_n that_o he_o be_v move_v with_o some_o pity_n of_o the_o innocent_a for_o his_o conscience_n tell_v he_o that_o he_o be_v innocent_a and_o not_o only_o do_v he_o this_o against_o conscience_n but_o even_o against_o natural_a pity_n and_o yet_o he_o go_v forwards_o to_o examination_n if_o a_o man_n have_v but_o a_o natural_a pity_n nature_n and_o all_o the_o power_n therein_o will_v never_o hinder_v he_o to_o do_v a_o mischief_n then_o brethren_n let_v we_o always_o seek_v night_n and_o day_n to_o be_v raise_v up_o above_o nature_n for_o if_o we_o have_v but_o the_o power_n of_o nature_n to_o hold_v we_o from_o sin_n we_o and_o our_o nature_n both_o will_v go_v to_o hell_n albeit_o that_o nature_n move_v we_o to_o pity_v man_n yet_o if_o there_o be_v no_o more_o but_o nature_n the_o malice_n of_o the_o heart_n smoother_n it_o and_o overcome_v it_o only_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n be_v able_a to_o fight_v and_o prevail_v against_o nature_n otherwise_o albeit_o the_o light_n of_o nature_n be_v never_o so_o great_a the_o worse_a shall_v prevail_v therefore_o as_o you_o will_v be_v save_v from_o evil_a strive_v to_o get_v the_o spirit_n of_o grace_n and_o say_v lord_n give_v m●e_v thy_o spirit_n that_o by_o his_o power_n i_o may_v strive_v against_o the_o corruption_n of_o nature_n this_o shall_v be_v our_o exercise_n if_o we_o will_v be_v partaker_n of_o heaven_n for_o never_o a_o soul_n shall_v see_v heaven_n by_o nature_n look_v what_o effect_n this_o work_n in_o the_o heart_n of_o the_o jew_n nothing_o can_v satisfy_v they_o but_o the_o blood_n of_o the_o innocent_a they_o cry_v crucify_v he_o crucify_v he_o when_o man_n be_v give_v over_o to_o cruelty_n nothing_o will_v satisfy_v they_o but_o the_o blood_n of_o the_o innocent_a pilate_n by_o all_o mean_v assay_v to_o set_v jesus_n the_o innocent_a at_o liberty_n yet_o all_o in_o vain_a for_o nothing_o will_v satisfy_v they_o because_o malice_n possess_v their_o heart_n indeed_o it_o be_v true_a that_o by_o the_o eternal_a decree_n of_o god_n it_o behoove_v christ_n to_o die_v but_o in_o the_o mean_a time_n they_o be_v unexcusable_a for_o they_o do_v all_o of_o malice_n if_o you_o will_v compare_v they_o with_o pilate_n they_o do_v worse_a than_o he_o he_o be_v to_o be_v prefer_v to_o they_o a_o thousand_o degree_n they_o have_v the_o light_n of_o the_o word_n of_o god_n to_o have_v instruct_v they_o which_o pilate_n want_v when_o pilate_n get_v sundry_a warning_n and_o last_v a_o sharp_a warning_n from_o his_o wife_n he_o in_o a_o manner_n gainstand_v they_o not_o but_o he_o have_v a_o conscience_n of_o the_o innocence_n of_o christ_n and_o he_o have_v a_o natural_a pity_n in_o his_o heart_n and_o fain_o will_v have_v deliver_v he_o yea_o four_o several_a time_n he_o preach_v to_o the_o jew_n that_o christ_n be_v innocent_a but_o as_o for_o the_o jew_n for_o as_o oft_o as_o they_o be_v tell_v of_o christ_n innocence_n yet_o their_o conscience_n be_v not_o waken_v neither_o can_v they_o be_v move_v so_o much_o as_o to_o a_o natural_a pity_n so_o if_o you_o speak_v of_o want_n of_o conscience_n of_o induration_n there_o be_v no_o comparison_n betwixt_o pilate_n and_o the_o jew_n think_v not_o that_o there_o be_v any_o man_n in_o the_o world_n that_o will_v have_v less_o pity_n in_o their_o heart_n than_o they_o who_o be_v liar_n against_o the_o truth_n &_o than_o they_o that_o say_v they_o be_v churchman_n holy_a man_n and_o defender_n of_o the_o truth_n and_o i_o say_v that_o the_o pope_n make_v less_o conscience_n of_o evil_a than_o the_o turk_n and_o it_o be_v better_a for_o a_o innocent_a person_n to_o fall_v into_o the_o hand_n of_o a_o turk_n than_o
powerful_a let_v we_o seek_v from_o he_o with_o this_o assurance_n that_o he_o can_v give_v all_o thing_n which_o either_o we_o can_v seek_v or_o can_v conceive_v and_o that_o according_a to_o his_o effectual_a power_n work_v in_o us._n now_o i_o end_v with_o this_o history_n of_o the_o thief_n &_o i_o come_v to_o the_o other_o history_n concern_v that_o recommendation_n that_o jesus_n make_v of_o his_o mother_n marie_n to_o john_n his_o disciple_n who_o he_o love_v the_o lord_n jesus_n hang_v on_o the_o cross_n in_o extreme_a torment_n &_o pain_n he_o be_v not_o only_o a_o sufferer_n howbeit_o indeed_o he_o suffere_n all_o extremity_n but_o in_o suffer_v he_o do_v many_o work_n first_o he_o do_v like_o a_o king_n in_o give_v life_n and_o glory_n to_o the_o thief_n all_o the_o king_n in_o the_o earth_n in_o their_o royal_a robe_n shall_v not_o do_v so_o much_o as_o he_o do_v on_o that_o vile_a cross_n now_o next_o he_o utter_v a_o very_a natural_a and_o love_a affection_n to_o his_o mother_n who_o bear_v he_o when_o he_o be_v to_o depart_v out_o of_o this_o life_n and_o to_o be_v take_v away_o hasty_o he_o be_v careful_a how_o she_o shall_v live_v when_o he_o be_v go_v from_o she_o to_o come_v to_o the_o history_n we_o have_v first_o the_o occasion_n that_o bring_v on_o this_o and_o second_o the_o commendation_n itself_o and_o three_o how_o john_n accept_v of_o she_o as_o concern_v the_o occasion_n there_o stand_v by_o the_o cross_n a_o man_n and_o three_o woman_n while_o the_o lord_n be_v hang_v quick_a in_o extreme_a torment_n he_o spy_v out_o these_o four_o person_n marry_o his_o mother_n and_z marry_o his_o mother_n sister_n that_o be_v her_o kinswoman_n according_a to_o their_o hebrew_n phrase_n who_o be_v either_o the_o wise_a or_o the_o daughter_n of_o cleopas_n and_o marie_n magdalene_n a_o kind_a woman_n out_o of_o who_o he_o have_v casten_z seven_o devil_n kindness_n meet_v kindness_n their_o heart_n be_v with_o he_o howbeit_o he_o be_v hang_v upon_o the_o cross_n then_o if_o thou_o can_v do_v no_o more_o unto_o he_o yet_o follow_v he_o with_o these_o woman_n to_o the_o death_n of_o the_o cross_n there_o be_v three_o mary_n better_a maries_n be_v never_o in_o the_o world_n and_o john_n who_o here_o he_o call_v the_o disciple_n who_o jesus_n love_v this_o stile_n he_o get_v in_o y_z e_z gospel_n because_o as_o jesus_n love_v he_o entire_o so_o he_o find_v this_o love_n deep_o settle_v in_o his_o soul_n &_o well_o be_v he_o that_o find_v that_o the_o lord_n love_v he_o all_o the_o kingdom_n in_o the_o earth_n be_v nothing_o in_o respect_n of_o that_o sense_n well_o these_o be_v the_o four_o that_o be_v stand_v by_o the_o cross_n together_o as_o for_o john_n i_o see_v now_o certain_o this_o do_v of_o his_o in_o the_o follow_n of_o the_o lord_n &_o this_o stand_n by_o the_o cross_n show_n albeit_o that_o faith_n in_o jesus_n christ_n in_o the_o heart_n of_o john_n and_o all_o the_o rest_n be_v wonderful_o smother_v for_o all_o be_v offend_v in_o he_o that_o night_n yet_o that_o faith_n in_o his_o heart_n be_v not_o altogether_o quench_v no_o it_o be_v not_o quench_v in_o one_o of_o the_o apostle_n nor_o in_o peter_n who_o deny_v he_o to_o speak_v of_o john_n think_v you_o that_o except_o he_o have_v have_v faith_n that_o ever_o he_o will_v have_v follow_v he_o to_o the_o cross_n and_o except_o he_o have_v believe_v that_o jesus_n after_o such_o a_o death_n shall_v have_v rise_v again_o in_o glory_n except_o he_o have_v look_v for_o a_o glorious_a resurrection_n that_o ever_o he_o can_v have_v behold_v such_o a_o miserable_a spectacle_n faith_n give_v he_o boldness_n to_o follow_v christ_n to_o the_o cross_n hope_v furnish_v he_o comfort_n when_o he_o behold_v he_o in_o ignominy_n and_o pain_n these_o three_o woman_n utter_v a_o tender_a and_o love_a heart_n towards_o he_o brethren_n if_o there_o have_v be_v no_o more_o but_o this_o natural_a love_n that_o a_o mother_n bear_v to_o the_o son_n marie_n will_v never_o have_v follow_v her_o son_n to_o such_o a_o vile_a death_n if_o she_o have_v not_o believe_v that_o death_n shall_v have_v turn_v into_o such_o a_o glorious_a life_n will_v she_o have_v stand_v beside_o her_o son_n and_o see_v he_o tear_v and_o rend_v quick_a in_o such_o torment_n what_o mother_n will_v have_v do_v it_o 1._o thess_n 4.13_o you_o read_v what_o paul_n write_v to_o they_o i_o will_v not_o have_v you_o ignorant_a that_o you_o mourn_v not_o for_o they_o which_o be_v asleep_a as_o the_o gentile_n who_o be_v desperate_a in_o their_o displeasure_n if_o thou_o have_v but_o a_o natural_a love_n in_o thy_o heart_n when_o thou_o see_v he_o or_o she_o who_o thou_o love_v depart_v that_o love_n shall_v work_v but_o impatiency_n in_o thou_o &_o a_o desperate_a displeasure_n that_o be_v if_o with_o that_o love_n thou_o have_v no_o hope_n of_o a_o glorious_a resurrection_n desperate_a shall_v be_v thy_o dolour_n and_o it_o be_v better_o for_o thou_o to_o want_v thy_o natural_a affection_n indeed_o it_o be_v true_a our_o faith_n and_o hope_v of_o glory_n after_o this_o life_n will_v not_o extinguish_v the_o natural_a love_n neither_o put_v it_o away_o the_o dolour_n that_o one_o shall_v have_v i_o desire_v not_o that_o a_o man_n shall_v be_v senseless_a without_o love_n and_o i_o count_v more_o of_o a_o stone_n than_o of_o one_o without_o love_n and_o better_a be_v it_o that_o that_o person_n be_v a_o stone_n so_o i_o say_v faith_n and_o hope_n will_v not_o extinguish_v displeasure_n but_o it_o will_v mitigate_v it_o so_o that_o in_o a_o wonderful_a heaviness_n it_o will_v find_v joy_n and_o thou_o will_v say_v albeit_o we_o sunder_v now_o the_o day_n will_v come_v wherein_o we_o shall_v have_v a_o joyful_a meeting_n come_v yet_o to_o these_o woman_n they_o may_v teach_v all_o man_n and_o woman_n to_o the_o end_n of_o the_o world_n think_v you_o not_o that_o they_o shall_v have_v be_v terrify_v at_o such_o a_o cross_n and_o that_o marie_n shall_v have_v think_v shame_n of_o her_o son_n so_o shameful_o torment_v and_o rail_v out_o on_o by_o all_o man_n well_o then_o if_o these_o woman_n by_o the_o sight_n of_o that_o shameful_a death_n of_o jesus_n christ_n on_o the_o cross_n be_v not_o terrify_v nor_o divert_v from_o follow_v albeit_o they_o see_v his_o glory_n to_o come_v but_o very_o

he_o he_o see_v these_o four_o stand_v together_o for_o wicked_a scorner_n stand_v together_o so_o the_o godly_a who_o mourn_n for_o christ_n draw_v together_o and_o he_o direct_v his_o speech_n to_o two_o of_o they_o first_o to_z marry_o and_o next_o to_o john_n woman_n he_o say_v behold_v thy_o son_n point_v to_o john_n not_o to_o himself_o this_o stile_n that_o he_o give_v she_o will_v not_o be_v pass_v by_o he_o call_v she_o not_o mother_n but_o woman_n and_o this_o be_v the_o common_a stile_n which_o jesus_n give_v she_o whilst_o as_o he_o be_v in_o the_o world_n it_o let_v we_o see_v whilst_o jesus_n be_v in_o the_o world_n as_o at_o all_o time_n so_o especial_o at_o the_o hour_n of_o death_n whilst_o he_o be_v live_v in_o the_o world_n he_o have_v his_o eye_n raise_v up_o from_o all_o earthly_a and_o carnal_a thing_n which_o man_n in_o this_o life_n count_v much_o of_o as_o be_v mother_n son_n daughter_n husband_n wife_n kindred_n country_n and_o by_o his_o example_n he_o will_v teach_v we_o when_o we_o be_v here_o to_o know_v none_o according_a to_o the_o flesh_n no_o not_o christ_n himself_o for_o in_o heaven_n there_o shall_v be_v neither_o father_n nor_o mother_n

have_v befall_v he_o these_o two_o day_n and_o after_o he_o speak_v of_o the_o effect_n that_o it_o have_v wrought_v in_o his_o heart_n and_o in_o the_o heart_n of_o his_o disciple_n to_o wit_n that_o he_o be_v no_o redeemer_n this_o be_v the_o whole_a conference_n &_o i_o shall_v go_v through_o this_o conference_n as_o god_n shall_v give_v the_o grace_n and_z as_o time_n shall_v permit_v first_o in_o describe_v of_o he_o he_o call_v he_o jesus_n of_o nazareth_n that_o be_v the_o stile_n he_o give_v he_o mark_v it_o the_o first_o thing_n that_o he_o speak_v to_o he_o be_v a_o untruth_n he_o call_v he_o jesus_n of_o nazareth_n no_o doubt_n he_o think_v he_o have_v be_v bear_v at_o nazareth_n suppose_v they_o have_v the_o prophecy_n that_o he_o shall_v be_v bear_v at_o bethlehem_n in_o juda_n micah_n chapter_n verse_n 2._o and_o that_o he_o be_v bear_v there_o the_o ground_n of_o this_o error_n that_o be_v among_o the_o jew_n be_v because_o of_o joseph_n and_o marie_n dwell_v at_o nazareth_n and_o jesus_n be_v bring_v up_o there_o with_o they_o that_o false_a rumour_n spread_v that_o joseph_n be_v his_o father_n and_o that_o he_o be_v bear_v there_o but_o he_o be_v not_o bear_v there_o i_o grant_v it_o be_v true_a that_o after_o his_o resurrection_n peter_n in_o the_o act_n and_o the_o apostle_n themselves_o call_v he_o jesus_n of_o nazareth_n as_o cleopas_n here_o call_v he_o jesus_n of_o nazareth_n also_o paul_n in_o the_o twenty_o six_o chapter_n of_o the_o act_n of_o the_o apostle_n and_o the_o nine_o verse_n call_v he_o jesus_n of_o nazareth_n but_o neither_o peter_n nor_o paul_n speak_v this_o of_o ignorance_n as_o if_o he_o have_v be_v bear_v there_o but_o because_o they_o to_o who_o they_o speak_v know_v he_o best_o under_o that_o name_n they_o submit_v themselves_o to_o their_o capacity_n but_o as_o for_o cleopas_n he_o know_v no_o better_a for_o he_o think_v indeed_o that_o jesus_n have_v be_v bear_v at_o nazareth_n so_o the_o first_o word_n he_o speak_v be_v plain_a untruth_n so_o you_o see_v what_o it_o be_v to_o judge_v with_o the_o multitude_n the_o papist_n will_v send_v thou_o to_o believe_v that_o which_o the_o multitude_n believe_v and_o make_v the_o multitude_n a_o token_n of_o the_o true_a church_n but_o thou_o shall_v be_v beguile_v with_o the_o multitude_n and_o if_o thou_o follow_a they_o because_o they_o walk_v in_o the_o broad_a way_n thou_o shall_v perish_v with_o they_o next_o consider_v his_o description_n he_o call_v he_o vir_fw-la propheta_fw-la indeed_o he_o fail_v not_o in_o this_o stile_n he_o be_v a_o man_n and_o be_v a_o man_n indeed_o blood_n and_o bone_n as_o we_o be_v yet_o there_o be_v a_o defect_n in_o this_o word_n cleopas_n know_v no_o more_o but_o that_o he_o be_v a_o man_n he_o know_v not_o that_o he_o be_v god_n and_o man_n in_o one_o person_n it_o be_v true_a peter_n in_o the_o 2._o of_o the_o act_n call_v he_o vir_fw-la propheta_fw-la yet_o he_o know_v he_o be_v the_o son_n of_o god_n bless_v for_o ever_o so_o as_o in_o the_o first_o word_n there_o be_v a_o untruth_n so_o in_o the_o next_o word_n there_o be_v a_o defect_n i_o mark_v this_o to_o let_v you_o see_v the_o ignorance_n that_o be_v in_o they_o before_o the_o lord_n ascend_v to_o the_o heaven_n it_o be_v a_o wonder_n that_o they_o who_o walk_v so_o long_o with_o he_o shall_v have_v be_v so_o ignorant_a the_o three_o time_n he_o call_v he_o a_o prophet_n indeed_o he_o be_v such_o a_o prophet_n as_o be_v never_o before_o nor_o after_o he_o yet_o there_o be_v a_o fault_n here_o he_o give_v he_o the_o great_a stile_n he_o think_v he_o have_v but_o he_o have_v far_o great_a style_n for_o he_o be_v not_o a_o prophet_n only_o but_o also_o a_o mediator_n king_n and_o high_a priest_n then_o he_o come_v on_o and_o he_o tell_v what_o a_o prophet_n he_o be_v say_v that_o he_o be_v powerful_a in_o word_n and_o deed_n now_o will_v to_o god_n we_o can_v speak_v of_o he_o in_o love_n with_o this_o poor_a man_n
