he_o must_v first_o know_v that_o there_o be_v such_o a_o tower_n though_o there_o be_v a_o tower_n yet_o if_o a_o man_n know_v not_o of_o it_o or_o know_v not_o the_o way_n to_o it_o he_o will_v never_o run_v to_o it_o for_o who_o will_v run_v he_o know_v not_o whither_o second_o he_o must_v know_v that_o it_o be_v such_o a_o tower_n as_o it_o be_v of_o sufficient_a strength_n for_o safety_n and_o defence_n for_o if_o he_o know_v that_o there_o be_v a_o tower_n and_o do_v know_v the_o way_n to_o that_o tower_n yet_o if_o he_o do_v not_o know_v it_o to_o be_v a_o tower_n of_o strength_n a_o tower_n of_o defence_n that_o be_v able_a to_o hold_v out_o a_o enemy_n he_o will_v have_v no_o heart_n to_o run_v unto_o it_o three_o he_o must_v know_v that_o there_o be_v a_o possibility_n of_o

when_o he_o come_v to_o this_o tower_n that_o he_o shall_v get_v no_o entrance_n but_o shall_v have_v the_o tower_n gate_n shut_v upon_o he_o and_o bar_v against_o he_o he_o will_v never_o run_v to_o that_o tower_n now_o just_o so_o it_o be_v here_o first_o when_o a_o man_n know_v god_n he_o know_v there_o be_v a_o tower_n second_o when_o he_o know_v he_o in_o his_o attribute_n he_o know_v the_o

unto_o god_n ephes_n 3._o 12._o in_o who_o we_o have_v boldness_n and_o access_n with_o confidence_n and_o there_o be_v a_o great_a deal_n of_o safety_n in_o the_o knowledge_n of_o god_n in_o the_o knowledge_n of_o god_n in_o his_o attribute_n &_o in_o his_o christ_n a_o man_n safety_n we_o see_v lie_n in_o his_o run_v to_o the_o tower_n he_o run_v and_o be_v safe_a and_o it_o be_v the_o knowledge_n of_o this_o tower_n that_o set_v a_o man_n a_o run_v to_o it_o hence_o we_o shall_v find_v safety_n attribute_v to_o the_o knowledge_n of_o the_o lord_n psal_n 91._o 14._o i_o will_v set_v
