The

of
Dumah

He
calles
vnto
me
out
of
Seir
,
Watchman
,
what
was
in
the
night
?
Watchman
,
what
was
in
the
night
?
The
Watchman
sayd
:
The
morning
commeth
,
and
also
the
night
.
If
ye
will
aske

enquire
:
returne

QVò
breuior
,
●ò
obscurior
:
the
shorter
this
Prophesie
is
,
the
more
mysticall
.
In
holy
Writ
,
these
two
thinges
euer
concurre
:
(
Sententia

▪
res
ampla
)
a
finite
Sentence
,
an
infinite
Sense
:
As
in
a
little
Map
we
see
a
world
of
Countries
,
and
what
the
Foote
cannot
measure
in
many
dayes
,
the
Eye
peruseth
in
a
moment
:
this
is
the
little
Mappe
of
Idumea
or
Edom
,
(
wherein
we
may
suruey
the
state
of
that
whole
Region
)
not
much
vnlike
the
situation
of
it
,
standing
in
this
Chapter
betwixt
Chaldea
and
Arabia
:
The
Burdens
against
them
both
are
heauy
,
and
the
Plagues
aggrauated
with
more
circumstaunces
:
The
burden
of
Dumah
,
(
though
short
)
shall
weigh
with
them
graine
for
graine
.
As
you
trauaile
with
me
into
this
Countrie
(
by
the
guidance
of
that
inlightning
spirit
)
tie
your
considerations
to
two
especiall
thinges
;
the
Mappe
,
the
Morall
.
In
the
Mappe
you
shall
finde

This
Idumea
is
heere
called
Dumah
:
Goe
tell
that
Foxe
,
&c.
God
calles
those
Princes
,
Bulles
of
Bashan
on
the
Mountaines
of
Samaria
:
they
would
be
blottes
to
his
holy
Booke
,
if
they
were
expressely
named
.
Sometimes
they
are
named
,
(
but
)
with
abbreuiations
;
Dumah
for
Id●mae●
:
Ram
:
Ephesdam●im

Let
not
this
Obseruation
slippe
from
vs
without
our
vse
,
If
God
take
letters
from
the
name
,
he
intendes
to
take
blessings
from
the
person
,
He
is
a
despised
person
,
let
him
haue
a
shortned
name
:
a
broken
Idoll
,
and
an
vnpleasant
Vessell
,
&c.
Thus
God
crosseth
the
worlds
fashion
,
by
putting
them
in
his
Chronicle
,
which
are
not
heere
thought
of
,
and
leauing
those
out
,
which
the
world
boastes
of
as
her
glorie
:
to
a
soule
that
hath
more
Affection
in
her
,
then
Religion
,
it
seemes
a
great
matter
of
pitty
:
that
Plato
,
Cato
,
Alexander
,
&
some
of
those
mighty
Romane
Cesars
,
honored
with
the
graces
of
Nature
,
the
bounties
of
Fortune
,
&
the
greatest
glory
,
the
forc'd
world
could
yeeld
them
,
should
yet
want
a
name
in
Gods
Booke
,
a
place
in
his
Kingdome
.
Greatnes
is
the
fairest
obiect
to
the
eye
of
the
world
,
Goodnes
to
the
eye
of
Heauen
:
There
is
a
glorious
splendour
in
pompous
Honour
,
to
draw
the
eyes
of
admiration
after
it
;
it
litle
affectes
the
sight
of
God
,
if
Vertue
giues
it
not
a
Lustre
:
hee
that
is
goodnesse
and
greatnesse
it selfe
(
when
others
haue
it
in
the
concrete
,
good
and
great
,
he
hath
and
deserues
it
in
the
abstract
)
is
pleased
(
to
preferre
his
title
of
Optimus
,
before
that
of
Maximus
)
and
first
to
be
called
Good
,
There
are
infinite
wayes
that
conduct
to
seeming
Honour
,
excluding
Vertue
;
the
end
of
them
al
is
shame
:
since
of
a
naturall
man
it
is
true
,
that
(
Quan●ò
ornatior
,
tantò
nequ●or
)
The
more
adorned
,
the
more
wicked
:
our
Bonnets
vaile
,
our
Knees
bow
to
many
,
whom
the
sight
of
Heauen
and
Vertue
,
scornes
:
This
imparitie
of
men
lyuing
,
is
made
euen
by
death
,
who
sweepes
all
(
Beggar
and
Prince
)
with
his
impartiall
Beesome
,
into
one
Bagge
:
and
when
Iudgement
comes
,
they
are
made
odde
and
vnequall
againe
;
for
then
,
the
least
in
the
worldes
estimation
,
shall
sit
downe
with
the
blessed
Kinges
and
Patriarches
in
Heauen
,
when
Kinges
and
Patriottes
without
grace
,
shal
be
excluded
.
If
you
desire
your
names
to
be
registred
with
the
pen
of
Eternitie
,
write
them
your selues
with
the
pen
of
Charitie
:
the
Booke
of
Grace
,
is
the
counterpaine
to
the
Booke
of
Election
:
they
are
written
in
Heauen
first
,
and
there
God
reades
them
:
Wee
cannot
see
into
this
Booke
through
the
thicke
cloudes
of
the
Ayre
and
Sinne
;
let
vs
write
them
in
the
leaues
of
Obedience
,
and
there
read
them
:
Non
norunt
haec
monumenta
mor●
,
)
and
you
shall
one
day
heare
the
Iudge
himselfe
,
read
them
in
the
audience
of
all
the
world
,
Christ
diuerted
his
Apostles
triumph
to
an
other
honour
:
they
were
litle
lesse
then
proud
,
I
saw
Sathan
fall
from
heauen
like
lightning
;
neuerthelesse
reioyce
not
that
the
spirits
obey
you
,
but
reioyce
that
your
names
are
written
in
Heauen
.
The
memorie
of
the
iust
shall
be
blessed
;
but
the
name
of
the
wicked
shall
rotte
.
A
great
name
commonly
ariseth
either
from
Blood
,
Abraham
:
Iacob
,
Israell
.
The
Hebrewes
well
obserue
,
that
God
to
those
he
loued
,
added
a
letter
of
his
owne
name
(
that
tetragrammaton
)
Iehouah
:
as
the
letter
He
,
to
Abrahams
and
Sarahs
name
the
letter
Iod
to
Iehoshua's
,
who
was
before
called
Hoshea
.
It
was
happy
for
Mordecaj
that
his
name
stood
in
the
Persian
Chronicles
,
that
Ahashverosh
might
read
him
:
his
seruice
shal
be
found
out
with
rewardes
,
array
him
with
the
Kinges
Robe
,
set
him
on
the
Kinges
Chariot
,
and
proclaime
his
name
through
the
popular
streetes
,
This
is
the
man
,
It
is
more
blessed
to
stand
in
the
Chronicles
of
Heauen
,
registred
by
the
Penne
of
that
eternall
Spirit
;
wee
shall
one
sit
with
the
King
in
his
Throne
(
Vnicenti
dabitur
sedere
,
(
Be
fashioned
like
his
glorious
body
,
It
is
the
decree
and
promise
of
him
,
whose
word
is
more
stable
then
the
foundations
of
the
Earth
:
Those
that
hon●●r
me
,
I
will
honour
.
Reuolue
then
his
sacred
Name
in
your
sanctified
mouthes
:
sing
Hosa●na's
to
it
heere
,
that
you
may
●ing
Halle●uia's
hereafter
:
&
hauing
drunke
heartie
draughts
of
his
Waters
of
Mercie
,
blesse
with
Dauid
his
great
and
glorious
Name
:
the
honour
of
your
owne
names
is
attayned
,
nay
consistes
in
this
:
maintaine
the
glory
of
it
with
your
strengthes
,
sound
it
with
your
prayses
,
and
(
if
need
be
)
seale
it
with
your
bloodes
;
and
God
shall
write
your
Names
(
not
shortned
like
Dumahs
,
)
but
at
full
length
,
in
a
Booke
neuer
to
be
blotted
out
.
The
nature
of
the
Prophecie
followes
,
being
that
other
branch
of
the
Inscription
;
A
Burden
:
a
matter
not
easily
portable
,
but
will
weigh
heauie
on
whom
soeuer
imposed
:
the
Burden
is
in
2.
respectes
:
1.
of
the
Prophet
that
beare
it
:
2.
of
the
People
that
were
to
suffer
it
.
1.
The
Word
of
the
Lord
is
to
the
Prophets
a
heauy
Burden
till
they
are
deliuered
of
it
:
there
is
no
rest
in
the
bones
to
the
surcharged
Conscience
,
no
more
then
to
the
pregnant
Woman
till
she
be
eased
:
I
confesse
,
that
Securitie
,
Vanitie
,
abundance
of
Wealth
,
setting
their
shoulders
to
this
Burden
,
make
many
a
Prophet
forgoe
all
sense
of
the
weight
:
Ionas
loden
with
his
Commission
for
Niniueh
,
lay
as
securely
in
the
sides
of
the
Shippe
,
as
if
the
God
of
Israel
had
layd
no
Burden
on
him
:
but
himselfe
was
a
Burden
to
the
Shippe
,
and
the
furie
of
the
Waues
,
Windes
,
and
his
Anger
that
mooues
all
,
was
not
appeased
,
till
the
Shippe
was
disburthened
of
Ionas
,
that
had
disburthened
himselfe
of
the
Message
of
God
.
Let
me
speake
it
with
griefe
and
feare
;
We
are
the
sonnes
of
those
Prophets
,
(
I
meane
)
their
successors
in
Gods
Ministeriall
worke
:
and
the
Word
of
the
eternall
God
is
no
lighter
a
Burden
to
vs
then
it
was
to
them
:
nay
let
me
adde
(
that
,
which
is
not
to
be
thought
of
without
trembling
)
there
is
the
Burden
of
a
Curse
threatned
to
them
that
neglect
this
Burden
;
Cursed
is
hee
that
doth
Gods
businesse
negligently
.
Least
I
should
seeme
bitter
in
applying
this
too
generally
,
let
me
freely
speake
what
Paul
applyes
to
his
owne
person
,
if
he
slighted
this
ponderous
charge
:
A
necessitie
(
which
is
no
lesse
then
a
Burden
)
is
layd
vpon
me
,
and
woe
vnto
me
,
if
I
preach
not
the
Gospell
.
I
know
that
our
Haruest
aboundes
with
plentifull
and
painefull
Labourers
,
that
beare
the
heat
and
burden
of
the
day
,
and
according
to
their
seuerall
offices
(
whether
in
Ouerseeing
,
Planting
,
or
Watering
)
with
the
sweate
of
their
browes
,
they
labour
in
Gods
Vineyard
:
but
to
complaine
o●
the
euill
that
is
,
is
no
wrong
to
the
good
that
is
:
〈◊〉
excellent
thinges
are
sp●ken
of
thee
,
Oh
thou
Citie
of
God
;
Oh
thou
Church
of
England
:
Oh
might
it
be
no
wrong
to
thy
Perfections
,
no
staine
to
thy
Beautie
,
to
condole
some
wantes
in
thy
Sonnes
:
It
is
sin
to
be
silent
,
where
an
impartiall
speach
may
take
good
effect
:
the
sweete
deawes
of
holy
Admonitions
may
from
this
place
,
(
as
the
Liuer
)
spread
into
all
the
Vaines
of
the
Land
.
The
Ministerie
is
a
matter
of
both
Honour
and
Burthen
:
Are
there
none
,
that
catch
at
the
Honour
,
will
not
meddle
with
the
Burden
?
whose
pined
Flockes
must
either
content
themselues
with
a
bare
Pasture
,
or
else
stray
foorth
into
neighbouring
Commons
;
whiles
they
forget
to
breake
their
Maisters
Bread
;
yea
perhaps
to
set
the
whole
Loafe
before
his
guestes
:
Are
there
none
that
loade
their
mindes
with
the
Burden
of
Cares
,
too
heauie
for
a
Christian
soule
to
beare
?
the
loade
of
Ambition
,
the
burden
of
Couetousnes
so
pressing
them
downe
,
as
if
they
were
exonerated
of
the
Burden
of
the
Gospell
:
But
if
any
soule
be
sensible
of
this
Burden
,
(
as
one
,
into
whose
bowels
God
hath
put
the
compassion
of
distressed
soules
,
)
He
is
full
of
matter
,
and
the
spirit
within
him
,
compelleth
him
:
the
word
is
in
him
,
And
if
we
slippe
our
shoulders
from
vnder
this
Burden
,
God
can
make
the
whole
world
too
hotte
for
vs
,
and
at
last
impose
a
Burden
of
another
nature
,
on
our
then
weaker
and
more
vnable
soules
(
the
Mountaines
and
Rockes
(
if
weighed
in
the
ballance
)
will
be
found
lighter
)
the
Burden
of
all
their
sinnes
,
whose
soules
haue
bled
to
death
by
our
negligence
:
We
may
,
through
our
impatience
and
weakenesse
with
Ieremy
,
curse
the
dayes
of
our
Natiuitie
,
and
cry
woe
worth
the
time
,
Ezekiell
:
Sonne
of
man
,
They
are
a
rebellious
house
:
contumelies
against
thy selfe
,
blasphemies
against
thy
maker
,
the
bitinges
,
smitinges
,
woundinges
of
tongues
,
handes
,
and
swordes
:
this
is
the
Burden
thou
must
beare
;
if
any
lighter
and
better
thinges
come
,
let
them
be
(
praeter
spem
)
beyond
thy
expectation
:
Thus
is
the
Word
a
burden
to
the
person
that
beares
it
.
2.
It
is
no
lesse
to
them
that
must
suffer
it
:
the
Iudgementes
of
God
are
heauie
on
whomsoeuer
they
light
:
a
Milstone
bound
to
the
sinner
,
&
throwne
with
him
into
the
Sea
,
will
not
sooner
sinke
him
to
the
bottome
,
then
these
bound
to
the
soule
,
will
sinke
it
to
the
depth
of
dephtes
;
B●tter
a
Milstone
,
because
lighter
.
The
wrath
of
the
Lambe
,
at
the
consummation
of
the
world
,
is
acknowledged
more
heauie
then
Rocks
and
Mountaines
;
(
T●●●plex
circa
prae●●●●a
ferrum
,
)
a
sensuall
and
senseles
heart
without
apprehension
of
Gods
incensed
anger
,
(
Cor
nuliis
violabile
telis
)
not
made
of
penitrable
stuffe
:
if
Gods
finger
touch
the
body
,
we
grone
vnder
the
weight
;
let
his
whole
hand
lie
on
the
soule
,
we
feele
nothing
:
If
this
be
not
our
Burden
&
Miserie
,
what
is
?
Like
curious
Visitors
,
will
ye
not
beleeue
this
age
to
labour
of
this
Sicknesse
,
(
vnles
you
behold
some
Symptomes
?
Let
your
eyes
take
notice
(
and
that
not
without
griefe
of
soule
)
the
deadnesse
of
heart
among
vs
:
We
ply
the
World
hard
,
dallie
with
Religion
:
We
serue
God
in
iest
;
our selues
,
with
all
respect
&
earnest
:
Our
Deuotions
are
like
Winter
,
frosty
,
misty
,
&
windy
of
many
natures
,
none
other
then
cold
:
Nothing
armes
,
charmes
,
and
confirmes
our
senses
with
attention
,
spirits
with
intention
,
actiue
powers
with
contention
,
but
vanitie
.
Are
not
the
Benches
in
Tauernes
,
and
Theaters
,
often
wel
replenished
,
when
these
Seates
are
thinne
and
almost
empty
?
Are
not
the
Allies
in
this
Temple
often
fuller
of
Walkers
,
then
the
Quire
of
Petitioners
?
Conference
with
prophane
ostentation
of
Cloathes
;
perhappes
plottes
of
mischiefe
,
as
frequent
,
as
sutes
to
God
:
(
making
it
little
lesse
then
a
den
of
Theeues
:
)
If
men
stumble
into
the
Church
,
as
company
,
custome
,
recreation
,
or
(
perchance
)
sleepe
inuites
many
,
they
feed
their
eyes
with
vanities
;
if
any
drops
he
admitted
into
their
eares
,
they
are
entertayned
vnder
the
nature
of
conceates
:
Iudgements
(
they
thinke
)
be
none
of
their
lessons
,
they
will
not
suffer
their
consciences
to
apply
them
:
Mercies
they
challenge
and
owne
,
though
they
haue
no
right
to
them
:
If
this
estate
be
not
a
misery
,
iudgement
,
burden
,
there
is
none
:
The
fire
of
the
Pestilence
is
well
quenched
,
the
rumours
and
stormes
of
Warre
are
layde
,
the
younger
brother
of
death
,
Famine
,
doth
not
tyrannize
ouer
vs
:
But
here
it
is
;
our
sinnes
and
Gods
wrath
(
for
them
)
meete
,
and
the
heart
is
hardned
:
this
is
the
sorest
iudgement
.
Let
me
speake
a
Paradoxe
,
but
a
trueth
;
it
is
the
plague
of
manie
,
that
they
are
not
plagued
:
euen
this
is
their
punishment
,
the
want
of
punishment
:
&
the
hand
of
God
is
then
heauiest
,
when
it
is
lightest
:
heauiest
on
the
Conscience
,
when
lightest
on
the
Carcase
:
it
is
true
on
them
,
what
the
Philosopher
sayd
of
himselfe
(
Perieram
misi
perijssem
)
they
are
vndone
,
that
they
are
not
vndone
:
God
suffers
their
bodyes
to
possesse
,
and
be
possessed
of
rest
:
they
sing
to
Viols
,
daunce
to
Measures
:
their
Heades
ake
not
,
Much
lesse
their
Consciences
:
But
(
as
to
Israel
,
fatte
with
Quailes
)
God
withall
,
sendes
Lea●nesse
into
their
soules
:
the
present
indulgence
,
giues
sufficient
argument
of
future
woes
:
they
surfet
on
pleasures
,
till
death
puts
them
out
of
breath
:
that
worthy
Father
saw
this
their
(
selfe-commended
)
estate
,
and
prayed
against
it
;
Lord
,
heere
plague
,
cut
,
massacre
,
burne
me
,
so
that
for
euer
thou
wilt
spare
and
saue
me
.
This
is
(
O●u●
grauissimum
,
)
the
most
grieuous
Burden
.
Securitie
is
the
very
suburbes
of
Hell
:
(
Miseri●●
nihil
est
miser●
,
se
non
miserante
,
)
there
is
nothing
more
wretched
,
then
a
wretched
man
,
that
reckes
not
his
owne
miseri●
:
an
insensible
Heart
is
the
Deuils
Anuile
,
he
fashioneth
all
sinnes
on
it
,
and
the
blowes
are
not
felt
.
You
wounder
at
the
frequencie
of
Burdens
,
and
that
the
Turtles
of
this
Land
grone
out
of
this
place
,
the
sadde
tunes
of
woe
and
miserie
.
Alasse
,
how
should
we
sing
the
songes
of
Syon
to
a
strange
people
?
The
Pulpit
(
I
confesse
)
should
be
the
Mercie
seate
;
but
your
sinnes
haue
made
it
a
Tribunall
,
or
Bench
of
Iudgement
:
Nothing
but
the
thunders
of
Sinaj
,
(
and
scarce
those
)
can
waken
vs
from
our
dead
sleepe
:
this
is
(
Ima
S●curitas
)
deepe
Securitie
,
fitly
applyed
to
vs
,
whose
is
(
Sine
cura
aetas
)
an
Age
without
care
;
or
rather
,
if
you
will
,
(
Se
curans
●tas
)
that
loue
none
but
our selues
,
and
that
not
enough
to
seeke
our
owne
peace
:
Let
me
speake
it
in
the
tune
of
Ieremie
(
Non
habet
vlterius
,
quod
nostris
moribus
addat
posteritas
)
we
flow
with
those
sins
,
to
which
no
following
posteritie
shal
be
euer
able
to
adde
;
so
spreading
,
an
infection
of
sinne
is
among
vs
,
that
,
as
in
a
great
Plague
,
we
wonder
not
so
much
at
them
which
die
,
as
at
them
whch
scape
;
so
there
is
nothing
a
Wonder
,
a
Mirror
,
a
Miracle
in
Nature
,
but
he
that
liues
vnspotted
of
this
world
.
If
you
thinke
I
speake
too
bitterly
,
I
would
to
God
,
it
were
not
worse
then
I
speake
:
I
would
your
reformation
might
conuince
our
shame
,
and
giue
vs
cause
to
recant
this
in
the
Pulpitte
:
this
turnes
the
Message
of
Edome
vpon
vs
;
the
Burden
of
Dumah
,
the
Burden
of
England
:
we
cast
from
our
shoulders
the
Burden
of
the
Law
,
God
layes
on
vs
the
burden
of
Iudgement
:
we
load
God
with
our
sinnes
,
But
alasse
,
sinne
(
which
is
Burden
enough
to
sinke
the
world
)
is
made
light
by
custome
;
as
if
resting
in
mans
heart
,
it
did
(
Quiessere

)
settle
it selfe
in
the
owne
naturall

It

a
philosophicall
Axiome
(
Nullum

no

Though

It

Iudas

it

These

the

Deuill
,
who
,
whiles
they
draw
with

in

is
content
to

all

At

,
when

hath
left

then

Now

Thou

Our

shall

With

And

Nay

Striue

Wee
haue
perused
the
Mappe
to
the
end
of
the
Inscription
,
the
Description
standes
next
to
our
speach
;
where
we
haue
an
Edomite
standing
on
Mount
Seir
and
calling
to
the
Watchman
,
with
the
voyce
of
derision
,
What
he
saw
in
the
night
,
&c.
a
proude
Edomite
securing
himselfe
the
strength
of
his
owne
armes
,
deriding
the
Prophet
of
God
,
which
came
against
him
with
the
burden
of
Warres
:
this
is
the
sense
I
fasten
on
.
I
haue
read
other
Expositions
,
as
if
it
was
a
question
of
feare
:
I
approue
and
dwell
on
the
former
:
from
the
perswasion
then
of
immunitie
,
impunitie
,
and
safe
standing
out
of
the
reach
of
Earth
,
There
is
question
about
the
name
of
this
Seir
;
Horite
,
Gen.
36.
20.
who
inhabited
there
long
before
Esau
:
;
it
being
the
Countrie
of
the
Ho●i●s
or
Horites
:
Esau
was
drawen
hither
for
many
reasons
;
1.
because
that
corner
of
Canaan
about
Hebron
,
Esau
;
it
;
therefore
the
Israelites
among
their
spoyles
of
Canaan
,
Yee
shall
not
prouoke
them
;
for
I
will
not
giue
you
of
their
Land
,
so
much
as
a
foote
breadth
,
because
I
haue
giuen
mount
Seir
to
Esau
for
a
possession
:
Such
was
Gods
mercie
to
Esau
for
his
Fathers
sake
,
that
his
posteritie
was
made
great
and
honourable
:
But
if
the
Horites
first
inhabited
Mount
Seir
,
how
comes
the
posteritie
of
Esau
to
enioy
it
?
It
is
answered
in
the
2.
of
Deutr.
The
Horims
dwelt
in
mount
Seir
before-time
,
whom
the
children
of
Esau
chased
out
,
and
destroyed
them
before
them
,
and
dwelt
in
their
stead
:
So
doth
Sinne
quench
the
very
cinders
of
naturall
affection
,
after
it
hath
put
out
the
flames
of
Religion
,
that
the
children
of
Esau
ceased
not
till
they
had
extinguished
their
owne
kindred
:
the
respect
of
blood
must
giue
way
to
Rapine
and
Malice
:
too
weake
is
Nature
to
restraine
the
furie
of
Sinne
,
when
it
is
stung
by
that
fiery
Serpent
,
the
Deuill
.
The
Romish
Mountaine
doth
claime
some
kin
of
this
Mount
Seir
,
(
at
least
in
the
opinion
of
the
Iewes
:
)
There
is
one
place
in
Edom
,
called
Magdiell
;
this
the
Rabbines
take
for
Rome
,
and
say
,
that
of
the
Idumeans
came
the
Romans
:
it
is
not
so
locally
;
it
may
be
well
spiritually
;
For
,
for
persecution
of
the
Saintes
,
there
is
no
such
Edome
in
the
world
,
as
Rome
:
But
Magdiell
signifies
,
Praysing
God
:
Oh
blessed
were
Rome
,
if
in
this
,
she
could
be
called
Magdiell
.
This
Seir
was
a
Mountaine
of
great
strength
,
not
infertile
;
and
as
great
probabilitie
giues
it
,
graced
with
either
one
or
many
goodly
Cities
:
Who
will
bring
me
into
Edom
,
Neither
may
we
thinke
,
that
the
offspring
of
Edom
,
when
once
made
Dukes
,
nay
Kinges
,
contented
themselues
to
dwell
in
Tentes
.
But
what
if
a
Mountaine
,
what
if
a
Citie
,
or
the
strength
of
Edom
,
is
it
able
to
grapple
with
the
Wrath
of
God
,
or
buckle
with
his
Iudgementes
?
If
any
peece
of
the
broad
Earth
were
shot
proofe
against
the
Anger
of
God
(
as
they
faine
the
●arden
of
Hisperides
against
the
Planets
)
it
would
not
be
vnsought
,
vnbought
:
there
haue
been
Mountaines
and
Cities
before
and
after
Seir
,
prouder
and
stronger
then
shee
,
that
haue
measured
their
length
on
the
ground
,
and
been
dissolued
to
dust
and
rubbish
;
and
Edom
her selfe
hath
daunced
the
same
measure
.
The
world
hath
gloried
in
her
seuerall
ages
of
many
goodly
Cities
;
〈◊〉
the
pride
of
Assyria
,
Troy
the
pillar
of
Asia
,
Babilon
more
a
Region
then
a
Citie
,
Carthage
graced
with
17.
tributarie
Kingdomes
;
and
let
not
Ierusalem
be
shut
from
both
the
glory
and
sadnesse
of
this
relation
:
may
we
not
say
of
them
all
now
(
Etiam
periere
ruinae
)
That
litle
of
them
is
dissolued
to
nothing
.
Thus
God
cooles
and
dampes
the
glory
of
Israel
:
Goe
you
vnto
Calneh
,
and
see
:
and
from-thence
goe
vnto
Hamath
the
great
:
Constantius
spake
of
old
Rome
,
that
Nature
had
emptied
all
her
forces
on
that
one
Citie
:
the
time
came
,
she
was
ouerthrowne
,
and
her
Walles
made
euen
with
the
ground
.
The
titles
of
new
Rome
are
greater
,
not
her
Priuiledges
:
(
shee
is
called
,
Vrbs
aeterna
,
)
yet
that
Eternall
Babilon
shall
fall
,
and
her
honour
be
layde
in
the
Dust
:
her
doome
is
past
,
and
in
the
decree
of
Heauen
,
she
is
already
fallen
for
the
more
surenesse
;
and
all
her
Marchants
(
petty
Leases
taken
out
of
her
graund
Lease
)
shall
mourne
bitterly
for
her
:
shee
shall
be
made
a
Cage
of
vncleane
Birdes
,
Owles
and
Vultures
;
as
she
is
now
a
Denne
of
vncleane
Beas●es
,
Lyons
and
Tygers
.
If
any
Citie
on
earth
might
boast
her
Priuiledges
,
let
Ierusalem
speake
;
shee
was
called
the
Holy
City
,
and
the
City
of
God
:
the
Temple
in
her
,
a
figure
of
the
Church
militant
;
as
Salom●n
the
buylder
of
it
,
was
a
type
of
Christ
:
Beholde
,
her
House
is
left
vnto
her
desolate
:
Sinne
layde
her
Pinacles
in
the
dust
:
At
the
murder
of
his
Sonne
,
God
with
his
owne
handes
,
rent
the
Vaile
,
and
after
gaue
the
whole
Fabricke
a
spoyle
to
the
Gentiles
:
They
that
haue
trauayled
the
lower
Prouinces
,
testifie
,
that
the
rude
heapes
of
ruined
Churches
,
Monasteries
,
and
Religious
places
,
are
no
lesse
frequent
then
pittied
spectacles
:
Deuotion
built
them
,
kept

;
Sinne
polluted
them
,
Hostility
subuerted
them
:
Sinne
prepared
the

for

:
the
Idolatry

the
Walles
without
:
they
could
plead
more
then
Dumah
,
they
and
their
pleas
are
perished
.
Let
me
not
speake
as
a
Prophet
,
but
as
an
Admonisher
:
Is
it
impossible
for
the
Sinne
of
England
,
to
haue
the
like
effect
?
Wee
are
ready
to
say
in
pride
,
what
Dauid
spake
in
the
assurance
of
Fayth
,
I
can
not
fall
thou
oh
Lord
of
thy
goodnesse
,
hast
made
my
Hill
〈◊〉
strong
:
Let
vs
prayse
God
for
that
we
haue
,
and
pray
that
our
sinnes
auert
it
not
:
Let
Dumah
speake
with
his
pride
;
though
our
Priuiledges
be
more
,
let
our
Presumption
be
lesse
:
it
is
wise
and
safe
,
to
possesse
more
then
wee
boast
of
:
though
Nature
hath
bound
vp
the
loynes
of
our
Kingdome
witha
girdle
of
Waues
,
&
Pollicie
raysed
another
fence
of
woodden
Walles
,
yet
God
must
put
about
vs
a
third
Girdle
,
the
bandes
or
circle
of
his
Prouidence
,
or
our
strength
is
weaker
then
the
waters
.
It
is
an
old
and
sure
rule
against
the
Atheist
,
against
the
Worldling
,
that
whole
cannot
be
perpetuall
,
whose
partes
be
alterable
:
If
the
members
of
this
great
body
,
the
World
,
change
,
faint
and
grow
old
,
it
argues
a
creeping
decay
to
the
whole
:
Let
the
Cormorant
know
(
that
would
build
his
neast
heere
for
euer
)
that
parts
of
this
land
are
alterable
,
therefore
the
whole
not
permanent
.
If
the
Plague
takes
away
men
,
the
fields
grow
barren
;
nay
,
the
wearied
earth
(
after
much
industry
)
is
dull
in
her
fruits
;
like
an
vnnaturall
Stepdame
,
she
produceth
not
good
things
of
her selfe
:
if
a
Deluge
ouer-run
vs
,
wee
and
our
glory
vanish
:
God
hath
more
meanes
then
one
,
to
inflict
his
iudgements
.
It
is
with
no
lesse
admiration
then
trueth
reported
,
that
a
whole
field
in
England
,
is
turned
in
one
moneth
from
a
fertile
soyle
,
to
a
most
Barren
wast
:
It
lyes
from
the
danger
of
innundation
,
from
the
reach
of
the
hand
of
warre
;
what
then
can
turne
it
to
a
perpetuall
barrennes
?
Thus
,
God
raiseth
a
mighty
winde
,
that
vncouers
a
mountaine
of
sande
,
which
ouerspreads
the
fruitfull
valley
to
a
great
thicknes
;
and
it
is
made
worse
then
Carmell
,
which
God
thus
threatens
:
I
will
turne
L●banon
into
Carmell
,
and
Carmell
into
a
Forest
:
The
Burden
of
Dumah
is
warre
,
Mount
Seir
feares
it
not
:
if
the
booke
of
our
hearts
lay
open
to
be
read
,
I
thinke
our
feare
of
warre
is
lesse
then
theirs
.
God
graunt
our
presumption
,
our
securitie
be
not
as
great
:
Wee
sitte
vnder
our
owne
Figge-trees
,
and
eate
the
fruites
of
our
owne
Vineyards
:
Our
Children
goe
out
by
flockes
and
daunces
,
and
flourish
like
the
Oliue
branches
round
about
our
tables
:
Our
Oxen
are
strong
to
labour
,
our
Sheepe
bring
foorth
thousands
and
ten
thousands
in
our
streets
:
There
is
no
leading
into
captiuity
,
no
dashyng
of
our
Children
against
the
stones
,
no
complayning
in
our
streetes
.
If
this
one
blessing
exceed
not
our
thankfulnesse
for
all
,
my
obseruation
is
deceiued
;
but
what
a
bold
inference
is
this
?
there
is
no
warre
,
therefore
may
be
none
,
nor
can
we
be
ouerthrowne
:
It
is
a
speech
as
common
as
the
stones
in
our
streetes
,
when
consideration
of
warre
is
offred
:
Wee
need
feare
no
Enemies
,
if
we
be
true
amongst
our selues
:
Vaine
security
,
that
is
built
vpon
if's
and
and
's
:
Who
shall
make
vs
true
to
our selues
,
that
haue
beene
false
to
God
?
Are
there
no
sonnes
of
Behal
amongst
vs
,
that
curse
the
prosperitie
of
Syon
,
and
gape
for
the
day
,
to
cry
Downe
with
it
,
downe
with
it
,
euen
to
the
ground
?
wee
know
they
haue
openly
and
priuately
with
coate
of
Armour
,
and
coate
of
Maile
,
assaulted
the
peace
of
Ierusalem
,
but
(
praise
to
our
God
)
receiued
shame
in
putting
of
their
Harnesse
:
Let
this
make
vs
thankefull
,
not
secure
;
as
if
God
could
not
reach
his
arme
ouer
our
narrow
Seas
:
Behold
France
made
a
Cock-pitte
for
massacres
,
by
the
vnciuill
ciuill
warres
thereof
:
Thinke
of
the
vnquiet
bread
long
eaten
in
the
Low-countries
:
and
when
thou
sayest
,
wee
lay
our
heads
on
the
Pillowes
of
peace
,
and
eate
the
Bread
of
plenty
,
kisse
his
hand
with
praises
that
feeds
thee
with
these
blessings
,
but
let
not
thy
owne
strength
make
thee
carelesse
.
The
Papists
thus
re-hearten
themselues
against
all
their
ouerthrowes
giuen
them
by
this
litle
Iland
,
that
our
time
is
not
yet
come
,
our
sinnes
are
not
yet
full
:
That
Ignatian
Sectarie
Pererius
so
notes
in
Gen.
15.
The
wickednesse
of
the
Amorites
is
not
yet
full
▪
&c.
He
giues
it
by
way
of
Comment
;
but
it
is
a
false
glosse
,
I
trust
,
and
carryes
no
more
trueth
with
it
,
then
other
the
fictions
of
Rome
;
his
wordes
are
these
:
Let
no
man
wonder
why
God
suffers
the
persecution
of
the
Catholikes
in
England
,
(
the
sinnes
of
the
Amorites
are
not
yet
full
)
their
wickednesse
is
not
yet
compleat
;
when
it
is
,
the
diuine
reuenge
shall
fall
:
They
expected
this
day
at
the
last
change
;
God
changed
their
expectation
to
follie
:
and
as
it
was
our
griefe
,
(
Nox
nulla
secuta
est
)
no
night
followed
.
I
hope
his
Prophecie
is
as
false
for
the
euent
,
as
I
am
sure
his
application
is
for
the
thing
:
wee
are
neither
those
vncircumcised
Amorites
,
vnchristened
Pagans
,
nor
doe
we
persecute
the
Catholikes
;
except
to
haue
libertie
of
Law
grow
rich
,
purchase
Lands
,
beard
and
braue
the
Ministers
of
God
to
their
faces
,
be
called
Persecution
:
(
Heere
I
cannot
but
mention
,
what
is
well
obserued
by
a
most
reuerend
and
honoured
Iudge
of
this
land
,
shall
shortly
consume
that
m●n
of
sinne
with
the
breath
of
his
nost●●ls
:
Let
their
eyes
stare
for
our
ouerthrowes
,
till
they
fall
out
of
their
vnfortunate
heades
;
in
the
name
of
God
,
not
in
Fortes
and
Swordes
.
To
speake
more
particularly
,
Bee
not
too
confident
(
who
so
euer
)
in
thy
Mount
Seir
;
euery
wicked
soule
hath
her
Mount
Seir
to
trust
in
:
they
that
haue
no
assurance
of
rest
in
Heauen
,
haue
their
Refuges
and
Mountaines
of
helpe
of
Earth
;
Dauid
so
returnes
it
vpon
the
wicked
:
In
the
Lord
put
I
my
trust
,
how
then
say
you
to
my
soule
,
flee
as
a
Bird
to
your
Mō●taine
.
Why
should
I
seeke
to
forraine
helpes
,
that
haue
setled
my selfe
in
the
bosome
of
Rest
it selfe
?
Riches
are
a
Mount
Seir
to
the
Couetous
,
they
rest
on
them
,
as
the
Arke
on
the
Mountaines
of
Armenta
:
Honour
is
a
Mount
Seir
to
the
Ambitious
,
against
all
the
beseeginges
of
riuals
:
Sensualitie
to
the
Voluptuous
,
against
all
the
disturbances
of
a
clamorous
Conscience
:
Pride
,
Fraude
,
Drunkennesse
,
is
a
Mount
Seir
to
the
louers
;
but
alas
,
how
vnsafe
?
if
stronger
against
,
and
further
remooued
from
the
hand
of
man
,
yet
neerer
to
Gods
hand
in
Heauen
:
though
we
acknowledge
no
place
(
Procul
a●●o●e
,
or
,
procul
a
fulmine
)
farre
from
God
,
or
from
his
thunder
:
But
we
say
,
it
is
not
safest
sailing
on
the
toppe
of
the
Mast
,
to
land
on
the
mountainous
height
of
a
temporall
estate
,
is
neither
wise
nor
happy
:
Men
standing
in
the
shade
of
humble
Valleys
,
looke
vp
and
wonder
at
the
height
of
Hilles
,
and
thinke
it
goodly
liuing
there
,
as
Peter
thought
Tabor
,
but
when
with
weary
limbes
they
haue
ascended
,
Mount
Seir
high
,
thou
deiectest
thy
soule
low
:
Woe
vnto
them
that
are
at
ease
in
Zyon
,
and
trust
in
the
Mountaines
of
Samaria
:
If
we
build
our
Houses
by
Vnrighteousnesse
,
and
our
Chambers
without
●quitie
,
though
as
strong
as
Mount
Seir
,
they
shall
not
be
able
to
stand
in
the
Earth-quake
of
Iudgement
:
God
so
threatens
Iehoiakim
:
Thinke
not
your
Houses
,
Fortresses
;
when
your
Soules
are
vnarmed
of
Christian
weapons
,
Fayth
and
Obedience
:
You
had
,
and
shall
haue
peace
,
whiles
you
pursue
it
with
righteous
liues
,
whiles
your
guide
all
your
actions
by
the
line
of
the
Sanctuarie
,
and
stirre
your
Attempts
by
the
compasse
of
the
Gospell
:
Plentie
shall
spread
your
Tables
,
whiles
Charitie
takes
away
,
and
giues
to
the
Poore
.
These
holy
courses
,
shall
make
you
continue
,
in
despight
of
Hell
and
Rome
;
your
Mountaine
shal
be
hedged
about
with
the
Mercies
of
God
,
&
your
Children
shall
defie
their
Enemies
in
the
Gates
.
The
Person
must
not
be
omitted
,
to
whom
this
scoffing
Question
is
mooued
;
The
Watch-man
.
It
seemes
the
Prophet
had
denounced
against
Edom
,
(
Opus
Ministrj
)
is
the
worke
of
the
Ministry
:
If
our
Eyes
be
blinde
in
descrying
Dangers
,
our
Tongues
dumbe
to
giue
Warning
,
the
Citie
or
Fort
is
easily
taken
:
But
what
say
we
to
Vsurpers
,
Wolues
,
Tyrantes
,
that
call
themselues
Watch-men
?
that
(
Bi-nominis
,
bi-linguis
)
Double-named
,
double-tongued
,
double-sworded
;
and
not
single
hearted
.
Demi-god
of
Rome
,
calles
himselfe
sometimes
a
Watch-man
,
sometimes
a
King
:
the
Seruant
of
seruants
,
the
King
of
Kinges
:
as
if
there
was
no
difference
betwixt
the
seruiceable
Watch-man
,
and
the
commaunding
Prince
;
betwixt
the
Centinell
of
the
Leagure
,
and
the
Generall
of
the
Armie
,
(
Ad
duo
qui
tendit
,
non
vnum
,
nec
duo
prendit
)
Whiles
he
claimes
both
,
vsurpes
one
,
trueth
allowes
him
neither
:
His
actions
shew
him
no
Seruant
,
(
F●riendo
non
ferendo
agit
,
)
Hee
giues
blowes
,
but
takes
none
.
To
be
such
a
Watch-man
as
he
desires
,
possibility
is
denyed
him
,
since
his
eyes
can
not
looke
so
farre
,
as
hee
would
extend
his
arme
;
not
to
watch
ouer
Rome
onely
,
but
so
farre
as
the
world
is
Christned
:
Behold
,
sayth
he
,
I
haue
two
Swords
;
one
of
them
he
lets
rust
,
I
meane
,
the
sword
of
the
Spirit
:
the
other
,
he
keepes
bright
with
the
blood
of
Saints
,
and
makes
it
shine
with
the
Gall
of
Martirs
:
(
Principa●is
principatus
a
triplici
corona
)
the
principall
principalitie
is
from
the
triple
Crowne
:
As
the
Sunne
exceedes
the
Earth
,
so
the
Pope
all
Christian
Princes
;
other
Kinges
are
but
his
Bayliffes
.
Did
you
euer
heare
a
Watch-man
speake
thus
?
or
arrogate
to
himselfe
such
a
reigne
(
In
foro
pol●
,
in
foro
pluij
,
in
foro
conscient●ae
)
In
the
court
of
Heauen
,
in
the
court
of
Hell
,
and
in
the
court
of
euery
Conscience
?
If
any
resist
his
tyranny
,
he
snacheth
from
Christ
that
his
Word
,
Bring
those
mine
enemies
,
that
would
not
haue
mereigne
ouer
them
,
and
slay
them
before
me
:
If
he
can
not
behold
it
in
action
,
he
will
see
it
in
picture
,
as
the
massacre
of
Paris
on
S.
Bartholomewes
night
,
was
pictured
in
the
Popes
Pallace
,
to
entertaine
his
holy
eye
with
pleasure
:
so
would
the
Powder-treason
haue
been
,
if
the
matter
had
hit
right
:
as
horred
,
as
the
thought
of
it
is
to
an
honest
minde
,
the
hoysting
vp
of
Buildinges
,
shiuering
of
Bodyes
,
tearing
vp
of
Monuments
,
dissipation
,
massacre
,
murder
of
olde
,
young
,
Prince
people
,
Senators
and
Senate
,
drawne
to
the
life
by
the
art
of
a
Painter
,
would
haue
been
a
contenting
spectacle
,
for
so
holy
an
eye
to
contemplate
:
sure
there
is
honesty
in
Hell
,
if
this
be
Religion
:
if
the
Deuill
can
deuise
more
execrable
stratagems
,
let
him
change
Seates
with
the
Pope
.
Christ
medled
with
neither
Herod
,
nor
Emperour
,
King
nor
Cesar
;
no
Emperours
held
his
Stirrop
,
no
Kings
kissed
his
blessed
feete
;
hee
onely
fought
with
the
weapons
of
the
Spirit
against
Sinne
and
Satan
.
This
is
a
Watch-man
indeed
;
but
he
watcheth
to
inuade
,
beseidge
,
enter
and
spoyle
the
Citie
of
God
:
hee
liath
other
Watch-men
vnder
him
,
Vncleane
birdes
,
fluttring
from
that
Vulture
of
Babilon
,
and
flying
like
Battes
and
Owles
vnder
the
eues
of
night
,
to
vomite
the
poysons
of
Heresie
and
Treasons
from
their
swolne
gorges
:
Watch-men
like
the
Chaplens
of
Mars
at
Rome
in
the
dayes
of
Idolatry
,
that
practised
to
tosse
Fire-brandes
from
Campe
to
Campe
,
to
inflame
euill
affections
;
that
care
not
whose
blood
they
sacrifice
to
their
Romane
God
,
without
distinction
of
Troian
,
of
Tyrian
:
nor
out
of
whose
Sepulchers
they
digge
themselues
an
estate
:
They
watch
indeed
,
for
they
keepe
a
Register
of
all
our
proceedinges
against
them
,
in
these
ltaleyon
dayes
of
ours
;
and
if
euer
the
S●nne
of
Alteration
shine
on
their
faces
,
they
will
repay
vs
tenne
blowes
for
one
vpon
our
Burgonets
:
meane
time
(
our
Prayses
to
Heauen
)
they
watch
their
owne
bane
:
and
(
as
one
writes
of
Parry
,
)
so
I
may
of
the
end
of
them
all
(
Itala
gens
sceleri
te
dedit
,
Angla
cru●●
)
Italy
giues
them
their
villanie
,
England
their
Gallowes
;
this
is
(
their
malus
,
but
meritus
sinis
)
the
euill
,
but
deserued
end
of
them
all
:
England
is
sinfull
enough
,
but
she
professeth
not
her selfe
a
Schoole-mistris
of
Sinne
,
The
Priestes
of
peruerted
Israel
,
Rome
:
As
Theeues
waite
for
a
man
,
so
the
company
of
Priestes
murder
in
the
way
by
consent
.
Hence
that
Prouerbe
carryes
no
lesse
trueth
,
then
antiquitie
with
it
:
An
Englishman
Italianate
,
is
a
Deuill
incarnate
:
these
are
those
Iesuites
,
Iebusites
,
Incendiaries
,
Traytors
,
and
not
lesse
then
Deuils
,
but
that
they
haue
bodyes
.
God
blesse
vs
from
such
Watch-men
:
if
these
be
Watch-men
,
who
are
enemies
?
We
see
then
the
vanitie
of
their
laboures
,
that
would
vndertake
to
bring
vs
to
a
composition
:
if
Heresie
can
be
made
Sinceritie
,
Idolatrie
true
Religion
,
Treason
Obedience
,
we
may
be
vnited
:
but
it
is
a
sure
rule
,
Contraries
in
the
abstract
,
can
neuer
be
reconciled
:
God
put
an
vn-appeasable
Contention
betwixt
the
two
Seedes
of
the
Woman
,
and
Serpent
,
when
hee
put
Enmity
betweene
them
▪
for
an
Enemy
may
be
made
a
Friend
,
but
Enmitie
can
neuer
be
made
Frendship
:
the
Ayre
that
is
darke
,
may
be
made
Light
;
but
Darknesse
cannot
be
made
Brightnesse
;
a
Papist
may
be
conuerted
to
a
Christian
,
but
Papistry
can
neuer
be
made
Christianitie
,
no
more
then
Antichrist
can
become
Christ
:
our
strife
with
them
is
not
for
the
extention
of
Limits
,
but
for
the
possession
of
the
Inheritaunce
,
whether
Grace
or
Nature
,
the
Popes
Law
or
Gods
,
shall
take
place
in
the
Conscience
:
So
I
haue
read
of
that
audacious
and
sottish
Hermite
,
that
would
vndertake
,
to
make
God
and
the
Deuill
friendes
:
the
impossibilitie
of
which
attempt
,
the
Deuill
could
tell
him
;
God
is
all
Light
,
and
I
am
all
Darknesse
,
that
my
foule
nature
can
not
be
hidden
:
our
affections
,
seates
,
persons
,
are
so
opposed
,
that
I
haue
no
hope
of
peace
.
They
will
not
,
we
may
not
yeeld
;
except
the
Sheepe
shall
compound
with
the
Wolfe
,
or
the
Mise
with
the
Catte
;
which
the
old
tale
forbids
,
though
the
Catte
gette
on
a
Monks
Cowle
,
&
cries
demurely
through
the
creuices
,
Quod
fueram
,
non

.
Good

Mouse
,
creepe
out

come

&
let
vs
chat
:
Behold
my
Crowne

shauen
downe
,
I
'm
now
a

,
●o

When
Cats
say
Masse
,
the
Myse
(
alas
)
must
pray
against
their
will
:
Kind
Pus●e
,
your
pate
is
smoth
of

,
your
heart
is
rugged
s●●ll
.
Experience
would
teach
vs
the
answere
of
the
verse
,
though
we
had
neuer
read
it
.
V●x

To
leaue
the
incorrigible
Watch-men
of
Rome
,
since
we
would
haue
cured
Babel
,
and
she
would
not
be
cured
,
let
vs
looke
home
to
our selues
.
The
Wolues
of
Rome
haue
not
more
honour
,
then
the
Watch-men
of
England
scorne
:
the
Edomites
of
the
world
can
not
abide
Ministers
:
Blessed
are
yee
,
when
for
me
porsecuted
:
their
Damnation
,
That
Light
being
in
the
world
,
they
imbrace
and
are
gladde
of
Darknesse
:
though
their
wronges
done
vs
,
be
against
the
Law
of
Armes
and
Nature
;
for
an
Ambassadour
should
be
(
Inter
hostium
tela
incolumis
)
safe
among
the
Weapons
of
the
Enemies
:
But
doe
the
Edomites
onely
take
up
these
Weapons
of
scorne
against
vs
?
No
,
I
speake
it
betwixt
shame
and
griefe
,
euen
the
Israelites
scorne
the
Prophets
.
There
are
some
sicke
of
a
wantonnes
in
Religion
,
so
hot
about
the
question
,
De
modo
,
that
the
Deuill
steales
the
matter
of
Religion
from
their
heartes
:
if
we
cannot
wrangle
with
Formes
and
Shadowes
,
and
shew
our selues
refractarie
to
established
Orders
,
we
shall
,
Malè
audire
,
our
Sermons
shall
be
slighted
,
our
persons
derided
:
thus
,
this
is
the
mischiefe
;
men
of
name
,
professors
of
note
,
when
they
speake
bitterly
of
vs
,
their
credite
carries
it
strong
with
our
scandals
:
one
Arrow
of
these
Israelites
,
wounds
deeper
then
a
hundred
Cannon-shot
of
the
Edomites
:
I
confesse
I
speake
Stones
,
but
if
they
hitte
,
as
they
are
intended
,
they
shall
heale
some
,
hurt
none
:
(
Dicatur
veritas
,
rumpatur
inuidia
)
Let
Trueth
be
spoken
,
and
Enuie
burst
her
Gall
:
let
all
these
Scorners
remember
,
that
the
contempt
done
to
vs
,
redowndes
to
God
himselfe
:
Hee
that
despiseth
vs
,
despiseth
men
:
hee
that
Christ
,
despiseth
his
Sauiour
:
Is
all
this
nothing
?
But
hee
that
d●spiseth
mee
and
you
,
despiseth
him
thot
sent
mee
and
you
:
It
comes
to
somewhat
then
,
and
more
then
euer
mortall
man
shal
be
able
to
answere
;
is
it
not
enough
for
them
,
that
they
haue
drawne
out
the
life-blood
of
our
Liuinges
,
but
they
must
expose
our
persons
to
contempt
?
So
the
Iewes
spoyled
Christ
of
his
Vestmentes
,
and
then
mocked
him
with
basenesse
.
Our
pouertie
of
flouted
by
them
that
haue
our
Liuinges
:
surely
,
if
repentance
and
restitution
preuent
it
not
,
they
shall
haue
a
Tith
one
day
,
which
they
haue
more
right
to
,
the
tenth
Sheafe
of
that
Haruest
,
which
is
reserued
for
Reprobates
in
Hell
.
The
Turkes
lay
it
is
an
imputation
on
our
Religion
,
that
we
spoyle
our
Gods
:
for
shame
,
doe
not
the
Turkes
,
and
shall
the
Christians
?
Dauid
would
not
haue
Areunah's
Threshing-floore
without
money
;
if
these
men
should
haue
no
roome
in
the
Church
,
but
what
they
pay
for
,
I
thinke
they
would
quietly
suffer
themselues
to
be
turned
foorth
of
dores
.
The
last
branch
of
the
Mappe
,
and
first
of
the
Morall
,
are
not
vnfitly
conioyned
,
the
Edomite
,
and
his
Question
:
What
is
in
the
nigh●
?
And
to
make
the
Derision
fuller
and
fowler
,
it
is
doubled
,
like
Phara●hs
Dreame
,
What
is
in
the
night
?
Did
they
seeke
for
some
prodegie
or
portent
?
Some
diuine
Reuelation
,
which
should
be
receiued
by
Vision
?
Were
the
like
Israel
,
of
whom
Christ
thus
testifies
;
This
adulterous
generation
seekes
for
a
Signe
?
The
Iewes
require
a
signe
,
&c.
(
Plus
ocu●o
,
quam
oraculo
:
)
All
the
adumbrations
,
tipes
,
figures
,
signes
,
were
but
that
cuppe
of
cold
Water
,
(
of
the
Gospell
)
till
he
came
him selfe
:
and
they
that
will
not
beleeue
without
a
Signe
,
without
a
Signe
must
perish
.
But
I
trauell
no
further
in
this
,
least
it
bring
me
out
of
my
way
.
It
was
no
Signe
they
inquire
for
,
no
Prodegie
they
feare
;
they
are
onely
pleased
to
make
sport
with
the
menaces
of
God
:
You
talke
of
a
Night
,
and
an
houre
of
Calamitie
;
but
threatned
men
draw
long
breathes
:
You
pretend
Visions
in
the
night
,
which
portend
our
ruines
;
come
tell
vs
the
tale
of
the
night
:
What
is
in
the
night
?
There
haue
been
in
all
ages
,
some
of
these
Frogges
,
to
throate
it
out
against
God
,
so
long
as
the
weather
was
faire
,
as
if
he
could
not
send
a
storme
:
the
tempestes
of
Gods
Wrath
haue
been
derided
to
the
last
moment
of
a
calme
:
the
venime
of
Prosperitie
so
impoysons
a
carnall
minde
,
(
Eilia
diuitiarum
superbia
)
the
daughter
of
Riches
is
Pride
:
the
Philosopher
could
teach
vs
that
(
Faelicitas
&
humillitas
diuiduum
haebent
contubrinium
:
raro
bona
mens
&
bona
fortuna
homini
datur
,
)
Happinesse
and
Humblenesse
are
not
chamber-fellows
:
seldome
a
good
Minde
,
and
a
good
Estate
,
is
giuen
to
the
same
man
:
God
seemed
to
mistrust
this
in
Israel
,
that
the
increasing
of
Goodes
,
and
multiplying
of
Cattle
,
Who
is
the
Almighty
,
that
we
should
serue
him
?
depart
from
vs
,
wee
will
none
of
thy
wayes
.
That
of
the
Psalme
is
of
full
strength
to
this
:
His
wayes
prosper
:
thy
iudgements
are
farre
aboue
out
of
his
sight
:
therefore
defyeth
he
all
his
enemies
:
Man
onely
?
no
,
God
himselfe
:
I
shall
neuer
be
mooued
.
It
is
in
vaine
to
serue
the
Lord
:
All
thinges
are
still
(
Statu
quo
)
continued
in
the
same
course
:
there
is
no
alteration
,
no
new
thing
done
(
Quaecunque
sub
axe
)
vnder
Heauen
.
We
say
,
(
Non
bonum
ludere
cum
sanctis
)
it
is
no
safe
iesting
with
holy
thinges
:
It
is
dangerous
for
an
Edomite
to
make
himselfe
merry
with
God
;
this
is
the
way
to
come
short
home
:
thou
hadst
better
haue
mourned
all
thy
life
,
then
made
God
thy
play-fellow
.
When
the
vessell
of
Dust
shall
encounter
with
the
arme
of
Omnipotence
(
Siue
percutiat
,
Blessed
is
the
man
that
doth
not
walke
,
&c.
His
first
plot
is
,
to
get
vs
,
to
walke
a
turne
or
two
with
him
:
hauing
perswaded
this
,
he
moues
vs
to
stand
still
a
litle
;
but
so
long
as
we
are
standing
,
we
are
going
,
therefore
at
last
he
intreates
vs
(
for
our
ease
)
to
sitte
downe
:
but
if
we
take
our
seate
in
that
inchaunted
Chaire
,
we
grow
to
that
impudence
to
deride
God
,
and
his
iudgements
.
I
will
single
you
out
foure
fortes
of
these
Edomites
,
Scorners
(
for
I
iustly
paralell
them
)
and
propound
their
natures
and
conditions
to
your
pitty
and
detestation
.
1
Atheistes
,
such
as
haue
voluntarily
,
violently
,
extinguished
to
themselues
,
the
Sun-light
of
the
Scripture
,
Moone-light
of
the
Creature
;
nay
,
the
sparkes
and
cinders
of
Nature
,
that
the
more
securely
(
as
vnseene
and
vnchidden
of
their
owne
heartes
)
they
might
prodigally
act
the
workes
of
darknesse
;
not
Athenian-like
,
dedicating
an
Altar
to
an
vnknowne
God
,
but
annihilating
to
themselues
,
and
vili-pending
to
others
,
Altar
,
Religion
,
God
;
and
suffocating
the
breath
of
all
Motions
,
Argumentes
,
manifest
Conuictions
,
that
heauen
&
earth
haue
produced
:
for
the
reasons
of
Hell
onely
shall
one
day
euince
it
(
Deum
esse
)
that
there
is
a
God
:
they
affirme
it
impossible
,
that
flesh
should
be
turned
to
rottennesse
,
rottennesse
to
dust
,
and
dust
to
glorie
:
Against
whom
,
Augustine
;
He
that
could
forme
vs
of
nothing
,
can
reforme
vs
decayed
:
it
is
easier
to
repaire
,
then
prepare
.
That
Atheisme
in
the
dayes
of
Salomon
was
the
same
in
opinion
,
that
ours
is
in
practise
:
we
doe
(
not
say
but
)
liue
,
as
if
it
was
better
to
a
liuing
Dogge
,
then
a
dead
Lyon
:
which
I
would
yeeld
true
among
Beastes
;
but
among
men
,
a
dead
Beast
is
better
then
a
lyuing
Atheist
:
let
them
aske
Nature
,
it
will
tell
them
,
(
Insculptum
est
omnibus
esse
deum
)
It
is
ingrauen
in
all
hearts
,
that
there
is
a
Deitie
:
let
them
aske
the
Creatures
,
they
will
witnesse
,
they
had
a
Creator
:
nay
,
let
the
Deuill
speake
,
to
shame
and
conuince
the
Atheist
,
who
beleeues
a
God
,
and
trembles
at
his
owne
beliefe
:
the
nature
of
his
essence
prooueth
it
:
2
Epicures
,
that
deny
not
a
God
,
and
a
day
of
Iudgement
;
Let
vs
eate
and
drinke
,
for
to
merrow
we
shall
die
:
they
will
not
die
till
to
morrow
,
but
be
buried
in
Riot
to
day
.
They
sleepe
on
their
Beddes
of
Downe
,
rise
to
their
Tables
of
Surfet
,
and
from
thence
to
their
sportes
of
Mischiefe
;
sleeping
,
playing
,
eating
,
dauncing
,
drinking
,
dallying
,
(
Motu

they
runne
round
in
a
Ring
:
onely
(
Nulla
interualla
piando
)
no
time
must
be
spared
from
Sathan
:
they
inuert
the
Order
God
hath
disposed
to
the
times
preposterously
,
makeing
the
night
day
,
and
the
day
night
;
at
midnight
they
reuell
,
at
noone
they
sleepe
:
though
the
day
was
created
for
labour
,
the
night
for
repose
:
The
Sunne
is
scarce
beholding
to
their
eyes
to
looke
vpon
him
:
the
Moone
and
Starres
haue
(
onely
)
their
attendance
;
the
workes
and
the
houre
of
darknesse
meete
;
they
will
be
contrary
to
all
men
and
all
thinges
but
themselues
,
because
they
will
be
contrary
.
If
euer
they
begin
any
worke
with
the
day
,
they
dispose
it
on
this
fashion
;
First
,
they
visit
the
Tauerne
,
then
the
Ordinarie
,
then
the
Theater
,
and
end
in
the
Stewes
:
from
Wine
to

from
that
to

,
from

to
Harlots

Here
is
a
day
spent
in
an
excellent
methode
:
If
they
were
Beasts
,
they
could
not
better
sensualize
,
it
would
be
but
lost
labour
to
tell
them
,
that
their
course
shall
be
so
proportioned
below
:
from
Snakes
they
shall
turne
vpon
Adders
,
from
both
to
Scorpions
,
from
all
to
vnquenched
flames
;
where
they
shall
spend
not
houres
but
ages
,
nay
that
eternity
of
time
,
in
waylinges
and
howlinges
,
grones
and
torments
;
when
for
euery
ounce
of
Vanitie
,
they
shall
receiue
(
downe
weight
)
a
whole
pound
of
Sorrow
:
Smoakes
,
blacknes
,
boyling
Cauldrons
,
fierie
burninges
of
Brimstone
&
Sulphure
,
kindled
and
continued
by
the
breath
of
an
offended
God
,
shall
haue
their
interchanged
courses
:
oft
this
torment
,
and
then
that
,
and
indeed
all
,
that
a
soule
&
body
made
immortall
,
can
suffer
:
Iste

Heere
is
a
day
to
be
spent
in
a
miserable
methode
:
Oh
how
(
yet
)
was
it
some
happines
,
if
in
a
day
or
set
time
,
these
woes
could
be
determined
:
these
are
the
Epicures
,
not
so
impudent
as
to
deny
the
night
,
not
so
honest
as
to
part
with
their
sinnes
.
3
Libertines
,
that
neither
affirme
no
Night
,
nor
put
it
farre
off
;
but
onely
the
strength
of
sinne
preuailes
ouer
all
:
and
come
Sorrow
,
Death
,
Graue
,
Hell
,
they
must
haue
their
pleasures
:
I
see
the
good
,
and
giue
allowance
to
it
:
The
euill
is
my
choyce
,
I
loue
and
doe
it
.
They
can
not
be
noted
for
Vertuous
;
but
they
will
be
Famous
,
though
for
Infamie
:
as
that
wicked
Church-robber
,
that
to
doe
some
memorable
act
,
pulled
all
the
Lead
off
the
Churches
roofe
,
and
thacked
it
:
they
must
be
mentioned
,
though
like
a
Traytors
name
in
the
Chronicles
.
These
sweare
away
all
reproofes
,
&
drinke
away
all
the
chidings
of
their
owne
Conscience
:
it
shal
be
the
worse
for
them
,
that
euer
they
had
a
conscience
:
their
Hell
shal
be
the
hotter
for
the
multitude
of
their
neglected
motions
to
good
:
their
Mercies
haue
not
bin
more
numerous
,
then
shall
be
their
Miseries
:
their
Nurture
or
Learning
(
to
omit
those
,
that
neuer
read
any
other
Booke
then
Vanitie
)
at
once
makes
them
better
and
worse
;
better
in
vnderstanding
,
worse
in
manners
;
whiles
their
contemplation
is
a
Theater
,
and
their
study
,
new
sportes
,
new
fashions
:
Oh
how
farre
better
is
the
simple
,
honest
,
innocent
Soule
without
knowledge
,
then
that
which
is
beautified
with
learning
and
debauched
with
vices
?
Beatus

,
More
happy
are
those
poore
wretches
confined
and
contented
with
a
rurall
charge
:
whiles
they
know
not
so
much
of
good
,
they
know
lesse
of
ill
:
they
skill
not
what
the
studying
of
oathes
,
the
trickes
of
pride
,
the
pollicie
of
Atheisme
meanes
:
they
make
not
sense
the
rule
of
their
beleefe
with
the
Gallant
,
but
their
Catechisme
:
Religion
is
their
Queene
,
the
Gallants
drudge
:
they
haue
not
so
much
of
reason
,
therefore
abuse
the
lesse
:
their
sinnes
proceed
most
from
ignorance
,
the
Gallants
from
knowing
wilfulnesse
:
Now
,
which
of
these
shall
be
beaten
with
most
stripes
?
they
worke
out
a
poore
lyuing
with
the
sweate
of
their
browes
and
nerues
,
these
can
play
out
a
rich
one
from
the
quicknes
of
their
wittes
:
they
know
not
the
detractions
of
slaunder
,
vnderminings
of
enuy
,
prouocations
,
heates
,
enluringes
of
lustes
:
the
foule
secrecyes
of
Idolatry
,
hypocracy
,
sacriledge
,
cleaue
not
to
their
consciences
:
they
haue
a
kinde
of
happinesse
,
in
that
they
are
not
so
miserable
:
our
impudent
,
imprudent
,
insolent
Youngsters
looke
on
these
,
betwixt
contempt
and
anger
,
call
them
Clownes
,
Ideots
,
and
the
dregges
of
Nature
,
and
thinke
themselues
Angells
,
if
these
be
men
;
(
Quorum

crdia

)
as
if
God
had
tempered
them
of
a
baser
mould
.
But
whiles
Acteons
Bondslaue
grindes
securely
(
though
laboriously
)
at
the
Mill
,
4
Common
Prophane
persons
,
that
will
suffer
themselues
to
weare
Gods
Liuery
,
though
they
serue
the
Deuill
:
these
are
they
,
that
make
the

of
the
Gospell
haue
an
euill

:
hence
that
Prouerbe
,
Pater

,
set

,
Our

,
pulles

downe
.
I
will
not
fauour
(
with
a
partiall
conuiuence
)
these
Scorners
,
though
they
nussell
themselues
in
the
Churches
bosome
:
nay
,
I
will
speake
most
plainely
;
these
are
the
worst
Edomites
,
if
not
to
them selues
,
to
vs
.
Let
the
Atheist
deny
,
the
Epicure
remoue
,
the
Libertine
forget
,
that
there
is
any
other
Day
of
peace
or
sorrow
,
besides
or
beyond
the
present
;
what
is
this
to
beleeuers
?
Wee
are
reedy
to
brand
and
howte
at
them
(
as
they
did
to
the
Lepers
in
Israel
,
)
nay
to
raine
them
to
death
with
a
showre
of
Stones
,
(
as
they
serued
Idolaters
and
Blasphemers
:
)
But
be
our
owne
handes
vndefiled
,
that
take
vp
these
weapons
of
Death
against
others
,
as
Christ
charged
the
Iewes
,
that
charged
the
adulterous
Woman
?
If
we
be
sicke
,
our
sicknesse
is
more
dangerous
then
theirs
:
We
haue
gone
the
better
halfe
of
our
Iourney
,
Mount
Seir
,
Atheisme
,
Scorne
,
Abhomination
;
wee
are
now
entring
an
other
Mountaine
,
the
Hill
of
Syon
,
the
Citie
of
God
.
The
Question
of
the
Edomite
was
not
more
peruerse
,
then
the
Answere
of
the
Watch-man
is
graue
and
sober
.
The
Answers
of
God
are
not
doubtfull
,
like
the
Heathen
Oracles
;
nor
obscure
and
tetricall
,
as
Mahomets
Riddles
;
nor
ambiguous
,
like
the
mixt
,
the
motley
,
epicaene
,
equiuocating
conclusions
of
Rome
,
but
plaine
,
sweete
,
profitable
:
I
call
therefore
the
first
part
of
it
,
A
Resolution
:
They
aske
as
if
they
despised
to
know
;
hee
resolues
them
iustly
,
as
if
he
would
force
them
to
know
against
their
willes
.
They
aske
him
what
is
spiritually
seene
in
the
night
of
Vision
?
He
tels
them
,
what
shall
really
come
in
the
night
of
actuall
Desolation
:
The
Morning
commeth
,
and
also
the
Night
,
Let
your
vnderstandinges
keepe
pace
with
me
through
these
4.
Circumstances
.
1.
The
length
of
their
Peace
;
The
night
(
infallibly
)
commeth
.
3.
The
qualitie
of
it
,
when
it
is
come
;
(
Nox
dicitur
)
it
is
called
,
a
Night
.
4.
The
Inuersion
of
this
,
to
the
Righteous
.
1.
The
Happinesse
of
Edom
is
but
a
Day
;
The
Morning
comes
,
and
the
Night
followes
:
It
is
but
the
distaunce
of
the
Sun-rising
from
his
setting
.
There
is
to
all
thinges
liuing
,
such
an
alternation
decreed
;
a
morne
,
a
noone
,
a
night
:
a
beginning
,
a
stronge
age
,
a
declination
or
full
poynt
:
as
the
Historians
write
of
certaine
Flyes
bred
by
the
Riuer
Hispanis
,
that
are
generated
in
the
morning
,
at
noone
in
full
strength
,
at
night
make
their
endes
,
and
are
gone
:
Paul
sayes
,
Our
life
is
but
a
Tabernacle
,
it
is
all
,
if
this
standes
a
yeare
:
Esay
calles
it
,
Grasse
;
which
growes
but
a
Summer
:
Dauid
,
a
Flower
;
that
hath
but
his
moneth
:
heere
it
is
called
,
a
Day
;
that
hath
but
the
Sun-rising
and
setting
:
Nay
,
Iob
compares
it
to
a
Shadow
;
that
hath
(
neither
Yeare
,
nor
Summer
,
nor
Moneth
,
nor
Day
,
)
but
an
Hower
:
Nay
,
Moses
to
a
Thought
;
whereof
there
may
be
a
hundred
in
an
hower
:
This
is
none
of
the
shortest
Comparisons
,
(
Manè
et
vespèrè
)
the
measure
of
one
day
.
What
then
meane
those
Greedy
Dogges
in
this
Prophecie
,
Bring
more
Wine
,
for
to
morrow
shall
be
as
to
day
,
yea
,
much
more
abundant
.
Mee
thinkes
,
I
heare
the
gallant
Epicures
(
the
christned
Atheistes
)
of
this
Citie
,
knocke
thus
in
Tauerns
,
for
yet
more
Wine
,
crowning
the
day
with
Riots
,
and
blessing
the
morrow
with
promised
Surfets
,
as
if
the
Night
should
neuer
come
:
alas
(
Nescis
quid
serus
vesper
ferat
)
thou
knowest
not
what
sadde
newes
the
Euening
will
bring
:
thou
braggest
with
Cesar
,
the
Day
is
come
;
Wee
tell
thee
,
as
Cesars
friend
,
It
is
come
indeed
and
begun
;
it
is
not
ended
:
the
Lease
of
Vanitie
,
is
but
a
Day
;
it
may
be
not
a
moment
,
the
tenure
of
this
world
is
vncertaine
.
Medio

From
out
of
the
midst
of
the
fount
of
Delicacies
,
ariseth
euer
some
Bitternesse
:
when
you
haue
spent
your
strengthes
,
your
estates
,
bloodes
,
soules
,
vpon
Vanitie
,
all
is
but
(
Vnius

)
the
merry
madnesse
of
a
day
;
2
You
haue
measured
the
shortnesse
of
their
day
,
heare
the
certainetie
of
their
night
:
The
morning
comes
,
and
(
without
preuention
)
night
followes
.
You
shall
shake
off
the
yoake
of
Israell
,
but
put
on
you
the
yoake
of
Persia
:
The
Edomites
were
long
tributaries
to
Israell
,
according
to
Ishae's
prophecie
and
blessing
of
Esau.
Thou
shalt
be
thy
Brothers
Seruant
;
The
Prophet
heere
assures
them
of
this
masterie
.
(
Israell
rebells
against
God
,
therefore
Edome
against
Israell
.
)
Ishae
as
Gods
Prophet
,
subiects
Edom
to
Canaan
,
the
seede
of
Esau
to
the
seede
of
Iacob
:
Qui
Deum
et
misericordi●m
nesciunt
)
that
know
neither
God
,
nor
Mercie
:
as
those
priuations
are
inseperable
,
there
is
no
Mercie
,
where
no
Religion
.
Edom
is
but
a
particular
instance
of
a
generall
doome
,
which
all
the
Sonnes
of
Adam
,
as
the
Daughters
of
E●e
,
I
meane
,
all
the
Glories
of
this
World
shall
beare
;
as
sure
as
the
Euening
succeedes
the
Morning
,
Death
shall
seaze
on
Life
,
Iudgement
on
Sinne
:
you
haue
the
sappe
of
Health
in
your
Bones
,
the
Riches
of
the
world
in
your
Coffers
,
your
Life
is
in
the
Noone
of
pride
,
but
(
we
say
)
prayse
a
faire
day
at
Night
.
(
Happy
are
they
,
whose
life
is
hid
with
Christ
in
God
,
that
this
Night
may
not
finde
them
out
:
)
Heare
this
yee
Edomites
,
that
floute
our
presagings
of
a
Night
:
you
speake
of
a
Night
,
and
houre
of
Iudgement
;
When
comes
it
?
We
tell
you
againe
,
The
Morning
commeth
,
and
also
the
Night
.
You
haue
had
a
time
of
Light
and
delight
,
and
what
your
heartes
could
wish
;
you
shall
haue
a
time
of
Sorrow
and
Darknesse
:
Your
Noone
shall
be
turned
to
Midnight
.
Tender
and
delicate
Babilon
,
a
Queene
,
and
free
from
mourning
,
shall
weepe
in
the
wydow-hood
of
her
glory
;
and
heare
at
last
,
(
Aduenit
sinis
tuus
,
)
thy
end
is
come
.
You
that
will
not
set
your
mindes
to
these
thinges
,
nor
remember
the
latter
end
,
miseries
shall
come
on
you
in
their
perfection
:
so
absolute
as
the
Iustice
of
God
,
&
the
Malice
of
Sathan
can
make
them
.
So
Salomon
schooles
the
art-les
,
heart-les
,
supine
courses
of
vaine
Youth
:
Reioyce
,
O
Youngman
,
&c.
Thou
foole
,
this
Night
,
shall
they
fetch
away
thy
soule
.
The
World
it selfe
shall
haue
this
Euening
:
the
Morning
was
in
the
dayes
of
the
Patriarches
;
Christ
boore
the
heate
and
Noone
of
the
day
,
and
wee
are
those
vpon
Whom
the
latter
endes
of
the
world
are
come
.
The
World
groweth
old
,
and
we
grow
old
with
it
:
Wee
had
our
Morning
at
the
first
preaching
of
the
Gospell
:
it
now
flourisheth
with
vs
,
as
at
high
Noone
;
Who
shall
say
,
the
Euening
will
not
follow
,
or
our
Sunne
is
without
setting
.
3
That
it
shall
come
,
you
heare
;
heare
shortly
the
qualitie
of
it
,
when
it
is
come
:
A
Night
.
Miserie
is
not
fitlyer
shadowed
,
then
vnder
the
name
of
a
Night
:
Sorrow
lastes
for
a
Night
,
sayes
the
Psalmist
,
but
ioy
comes
in
the
Morning
.
A
sadde
,
heauie
,
and
disconsolate
time
,
full
of
horrour
and
amazement
;
when
there
is
no
obiect
to
withdraw
the
eye
,
thereby
to
diuert
the
minde
from
the
thought
and
meditation
of
bitternesse
.
Sathan
himselfe
is
not
sayd
to
be
bound
with
any
other
Chaines
but
these
of
Darknesse
:
as
the
Ioyes
of
Heauen
are
described
by
that
eternall
daylight
of
glory
and
Sun-shine
of
the
Lambe
,
There
shall
be
no
Night
there
:
So
the
tormentes
of
Hell
are
called
by
Christ
,
Night
of
nightes
,
Night
of
horrour
:
the
downefall
of
Dumah
,
a
Night
:
the
destruction
of
Israel
,
A
season
of
blacknesse
,
darknesse
,
cloudes
and
obscurities
.
Therefore
(
as
Christ
to
the
Iewes
,
Pray
that
your
flight
be
not
in
the
Night
,
)
pray
that
your
departure
out
of
this
life
,
be
not
in
the
Night
of
your
securitie
and
ignorance
;
and
then
feare
not
this
Night
,
for
you
are
redeemed
from
the
land
of
eternall
Darkenesse
.

The
last
part

this
Suruey

the
inuerting
of
this
vpon
the
Righteous
:
Where
,
behold
the
different
beginnings

endes
of
both
Holy
,
and
Vnholy
:
to
the
children
of
Disobedience
,
the
Morning
is
before
the
Euening

this
is
Dumahs
woe
at
Sun-set

had
her
Day

To

Faythfull

as
at

The

were
the

From

shall
you
celebrate

the

haue
a
Night

This
disparitie
consistes
not
onely
in
the
counterposition
of
their
order
,
but
in
the
circumstantiall
difference
of
their
length
and
shortnesse
:
Our
Night
is
irkesome
,
but
short
;
(
Compensatur
acerbitas
breuitate
)
What
is
ill
in
the
bitternesse
,
is
eased
by
the
shortnesse
:
But
our
Day
is
euerlasting
,
from
new
Moone
to
new
Moone
,
from
Saboth
to
Saboth
,
wee
shall
prayse
the
Lord
:
Myriades
of
yeares
and
ages
,
shal
be
expired
,
and
our
Sunne
as
farre
from
setting
,
as
at
our
first
entrance
;
for
time
and
mortalitie
,
and
distinction
of
age
,
shall
cease
:
there
is
nothing
but
eternitie
aboue
:
It
is
not
more
blessed
in
being
a
Day
,
then
in
being
endlesse
:
Their
Morning
is
short
,
their
Night
euerlasting
,
their
Debt
never
p●yde
,
their
Fire
neuer
quenched
:
Here
is
their
vnhappines
,
(
Florent
ad
tempus
,
pereunt
in
aeternum
:
florent
fa●sis
bonis
,
pereunt
veris
tormentis
:
)
They
flourish
for
a
time
,
they
perish
for
euer
:
they
flourish
with
false
ioyes
,
perish
with
true
and
substantiall
tormentes
:
thinges
that
are
soonest
bred
,
haue
the
shortest
continuance
:
Loe
,
now
cast
a
sober
and
intelligent
eye
on
this
strange
opposition
,
and
let
the
very
enemie
of
Heauen
and
Grace
,
iudge
,
whether
the
vaine
shadowes
of
Ioy
,
and
those
for
a
Day
,
liable
to
true
and
substantiall
tormentes
,
and
those
for
euer
,
be
comparable
with
,
or
desirable
before
,
a
momentany
Affliction
(
and
that
not
without
the
best
of
comfortes
)
followed
with
an
excellent
and
eternall
weight
of
glory
.
It
's
confest
;
I
speake
for
you
,
I
thinke
your
Consciences
are
conuinced
:
but
(
Vbi
signa
?
)
Where
are
the
signes
of
it
?
If
this
be
so
,
and
you
so
acknowledge
it
,
why
lead
you
so
dissonant
liues
?
shall
the
voyce
of
your
owne
tongues
,
censure
of
your
owne
heartes
,
witnesse
against
you
?
Tacitus
reportes
,
that
in
the
ciuill
Warres
betwixt
Vitellius
and
Vespasian
,
a
Souldier
had
killed
his
owne
Father
,
which
was
of
the
enemies
Armie
;
no
sooner
was
this
published
,
but
euery
man
begins
to
abhorre
,
condemne
,
execrate
that
Warre
,
the
cause
of
such
an
vnnaturall
fact
;
yet
how
little
effect
this
wrought
in
their
proceedings
,
that
Author
describes
;
for
their
rage
,
rapine
,
crueltie
,
was
not
lessened
,
in
spoyling
Neighbour
,
Friend
,
Kinsman
,
Brother
,
Father
,
when
they
had
slaine
them
.
Wee
abhorre
the
miseries
and
sinnes
incident
to
this
life
;
we
loue
it
still
,
nay
preferre
it
to
Heauen
:
our
condemnation
will
be
easie
and
iust
,
what
need
is
there
of
more
Witnesses
(
Ex
ore
tuo
)
thy
owne
lippes
haue
spoken
against
thee
.
For
shame
let
our
heartes
and
tongues
be
cut
out
of
one
peece
,
that
what
we
allow
in
opinion
,
we
may
prosecute
in
practise
.
You
heare
how
the
Day
slippes
from
vs
,
and
the
Night
steales
on
;
what
remaines
,
but
in
the
Day
to
prepare
for
the
Night
.
No
maruell
,
if
men
sleepe
in
the
Night
;
but
in
the
broad
day
,
to
shut
our
eyes
(
with
the
Dormouse
)
is
vnnaturall
.
There
is
a
Night
,
when
thou
shalt
rest
,
on
thy
bed
of
Peace
:
onely
walke
,
worke
;
loyter
not
in
thy
Day
.
Christ
taught
and
obserued
the
Rule
himselfe
,
to
trauell
his
Day
and
all
his
Day
;
For
the
Night
comes
,
wherein
no
man
can
worke
.
There
are
thinges
,
which
if
the
Night
findes
vndone
,
we
are
vndone
,
because
we
haue
not
done
them
:
if
we
deferre
to
prouide
lodging
,
sustenaunce
,
safetie
,
the
Night
findes
and
leaues
vs
destitute
.
How
madde
is
hee
,
that
bound
to
some
speciall
designement
,
confined
to
his
day
,
and
then
furthered
with
light
,
ayde
,
companie
,
and
conueniencie
of
all
thinges
,
spendes
one
houre
in
catching
Flyes
,
another
after
Feathers
,
and
all
the
rest
in
seuerall
toyes
and
leasinges
,
that
on
a
sodaine
the
Sunne
settes
,
and
his
chiefe
worke
is
not
done
,
nay
not
begunne
.
The
worke
of
our
day
,
is
the
working
vp
our
saluation
;
it
is
a
speciall
worke
,
Heauen
&
our
Soules
are
vpon
it
,
and
we
haue
but
our
day
to
worke
it
;
(
Tempus
vitae
,
tempus
paenitentiae
)
The
time
of
life
,
is
the
time
of
Repentance
.
Wee
spend
one
peece
of
our
Day
in
Couetous
scrapinges
,
another
in
adoring
that
wee
haue
scraped
;
some
houres
of
our
Day
in
working
vanitie
,
and
some
in
sleeping
security
;
instantly
the
Night
of
death
comes
,
&
we
haue
neglected
the
maine
chaunce
:
our
Saluation
is
not
finished
like
Courtiers
,
that
hauing
light
to
bring
them
to
bed
,
play
it
out
at
Cardes
,
and
goe
to
bed
darkling
:
Woe
to
them
that
goe
to
their
last
rest
thus
:
How
vnworthy
are
wee
of
a
Day
,
thus
to
spend
it
?
It
is
pittie
that
euer
the
Sun
of
Grace
shoone
on
our
faces
:
Quake
and
feare
,
what
soeuer
thou
art
,
to
suffer
the
sinne
of
thy
soule
,
and
the
end
of
thy
life
to
come
so
neere
togeather
:
If
men
stumble
in
the
darke
,
it
is
not
strange
;
to
fall
at
euery
stubbe
in
the
day
,
argues
wilfull
neglect
,
or
want
of
eyes
.
It
is
enough
for
those
poore
Romanistes
,
that
liue
vnder
that
Egiptian
darkenesse
of
the
inquisition
,
to
fall
into
grieuous
absurdities
,
where
the
Sunne
shines
,
to
see
men
fall
in
heapes
,
is
astonishing
:
Oh
that
euery
baite
of
drunkennesse
,
obiect
of
couetousnesse
,
presented
glaunce
of
vanitie
,
should
make
vs
wander
and
stumble
,
stumble
and
falle
,
falle
and
content
our selues
therein
without
rysing
:
What
(
would
wee
?
what
)
will
wee
doe
,
if
our
Sunne
settes
?
For
shame
cast
away
the
deedes
of
darknesse
with
the
time
:
Awake
and
stand
vp
,
the
light
of
Iesus
Christ
shines
on
thy
face
.
As
men
from
sleepe
opening
their
eyes
,
and
seeing
day
broke
,
cast
away
their
cloathes
,
wherein
they
were
wrapt
warme
,
and
starte
vp
to
their
seuerall
callinges
;
the
Sinnes
and
Vanities
of
this
world
haue
kept
vs
warme
,
as
Caiphas
kept
Peter
,
whiles
we
were
folded
in
them
;
but
our
maine
worke
lay
dead
for
want
of
execution
:
Prouide
then
for
this
Night
,
The
sleepe
of
him
that
trauaileth
,
is
sweete
,
If
the
Day
be
well
spent
,
the
wearied
bones
reioyce
in
their
earned
repose
;
and
the
contented
Conscience
,
applaudes
it selfe
in
the
thought
of
her
carefull
obedience
;
body
and
soule
receiues
rest
.
Whiles
the
Day
is
slouthfully
spent
,
Night
bringes
no
reioycefull
ease
to
either
spirits
or
corpes
:
The
Day
of
thy
life
worne
out
in
the
well
disposed
houres
of
a
religious
obedience
,
thy
body
shall
rest
in
a
perfumed
Graue
,
and
thy
soule
in
the
bosome
of
Abraham
,
when
Night
comes
:
but
whiles
pride
,
surfets
,
oppressions
,
wantonnes
,
haue
shared
the
Day
,
the
Night
comes
with
no
lesse
suddennesse
then
sorrow
;
thy
rest
shal
be
vnrest
,
neither
easier
then
smoake
and
thornes
,
and
flames
,
nor
shorter
then
the
eternitie
of
all
these
can
make
it
:
Oh
then
,
what
folly
,
madnes
,
selfe-enmitie
is
this
,
to
play
out
our
short
Day
,
and
howle
vnder
the
pressure
of
working
tormentes
for
an
euerlasting
Night
.
Wee
are
come
to
the
last
fruite
that
I
shall
gather
you
from
this
Tree
,
The
Morning
comes
,
&
the
Night
;
the
maner
is
now
touched
:
If
ye
will
aske
,
enquire
,
returne
and
come
.
You
aske
in
derision
,
keepe
the
Cloth
,
but
reiect
the
Fashion
:
Aske
still
,
but
to
repentance
:
Let
your
demaundes
manifest
your
desires
of
resolution
:
If
ye
will
aske
,
and
needes
be
acquainted
with
your
sorrowes
,
Enquire
,
with
humilitie
,
reuerence
,
fayth
:
Returne
from
your
sinnes
,
by
repentance
,
and
come
home
to
God
by
obedience
,
(
Triplex
ex
arbore
fructus
)
heere
is
a
threefold
fruite
from
this
Tree
;
whereon
let
your
soules
feede
,
and
then
depart
to
refresh
your
bodyes
.
Enquire
:
way
of
the
Wildernesse
,
Seeke
yee
the
Lord
,
whiles
he
may
be
found
:
the
rule
of
the
Prophet
is
iust
:
the
Rich
man
comes
not
to
the
Beggars
dore
with
reliefe
in
his
hand
;
but
the
Beggar
to
his
for
it
:
there
is
small
reason
,
to
expect
it
from
God
,
that
he
should
both
giue
,
and
seeke
:
I
confesse
he
doth
,
as
Christ
testifies
of
himselfe
;
I
came
to
seeke
and
to
saue
that
which
was
lost
;
Aske
,
and
you
shall
haue
:
Enquire
,
and
you
shall
be
satisfied
:
But
if
any
will
be
ignoraunt
,
If
you
aske
mee
,
1.
Where
you
should
Enquire
?
Our
Prophet
directes
you
;
To
the
Law
,
to
the
Testimonie
:
Where
should
a
people
enquire
,
2.
If
how
?
With
Humilitie
,
Reuerence
,
and
desire
of
Knowledge
:
(
Inter
Iuuenile
tuaicium
,
et
senile
praeiudicium
multa
veritas
corrumpitur
.
)
There
must
be
in
vs
an
equall
auoyding
of
both
Rashnes
,
and
Preiudice
:
Young
men
apprehend
not
the
necessitie
of
Knowledge
;
Old
men
presume
of
a
plerophorie
and
abundance
:
hence
neither
young
nor
old
enquire
.
3.
If
when
?
The
Wise-man
answers
;
Enquire
,
seeke
;
Remember
thy
Creatour
in
the
dayes
of
thy
youth
:
Begin
this
search
,
in
the
Morning
of
thy
yeares
:
(
Mane
,
is
the
Lordes
Aduerbe
,
the
Deuils
Verbe
:
)
the
Lord
sayth
,
Earely
;
the
Deuill
sayth
,
Tarry
:
to
whom
you
harken
,
iudge
your selues
:
One
thing
onely
,
take
heed
you
stay
not
too
long
;
the
Deuill
is
a
false
Sexton
,
and
settes
the
Clocke
too
slow
,
that
the
Night
comes
ere
we
be
aware
:
tarry
not
then
till
your
piles
of
Vsuries
,
heapes
of
Deceites
,
mountaines
of
Blasphemies
,
haue
caused
God
to
hide
himselfe
,
and
will
not
be
found
.
There
is
a
(
Sera
nimis
hora
)
time
too
late
,
which
Esau
fell
vnluckily
into
,
when
hee
sought
the
Blessing
with
teares
,
and
could
not
find
it
.
It
may
be
the
Statues
,
Is
this
all
?
no
,
there
is
second
Fruite
growing
on
this
Tree
,
to
Returne
into
your
Country
,
whither
you
would
arriue
,
and
where
onely
is
your
rest
,
another
way
.
If
euer
this
exhortation
was
necessarie
for
Edom
,
let
mee
thinke
it
fitter
for
England
:
(
as
sin-full
as
wee
are
,
let
mee
yet
say
,
there
is
more
hope
of
our
repentance
,
then
of
Edoms
:
)
our
Iniquities
as
great
,
our
Instructions
greater
then
theirs
;
what
remaines
,
but
our
Repentance
?
neuer
more
need
:
Our
sinnes
are
not
low
,
slow
,
few
,
or
sleightly
done
;
negligence
sinnes
,
security
sinnes
,
contempt
sinnes
,
presumption
and
hard-heartednes
sins
:
here
is
the
Scorners
Chaire
,
the
Drunkardes
Bench
,
the
Idle-mans
Cushion
,
the
Vsurers
Studie
:
Oh
where
is
Repentance
,
to
rowse
these
?
God
is
angry
;
we
haue
been
smitten
,
not
in
the
Skirts
and
Suburbes
of
our
Common-wealth
onely
,
our
Citie
,
Body
,
and
whole
vnitie
hath
been
pearced
to
the
soule
,
The
whole
Head
hath
been
sicke
,
and
whole
Heart
heauy
:
Where
is
the
phisicke
of
Repentance
?
I
can
shew
you
many
Actors
presenting
themselues
on
the
Theator
of
this
World
;
I
see
not
Repentance
play
her
part
:
I
can
point
you
to
Vsurie
,
robbing
,
grinding
,
sucking
blood
,
cutting
throates
,
whiles
he
sittes
in
the
Chimney
corner
,
&
heares
of
his
Zani's
,
whelpes
,
vnderling
Theeues
ending
their
dayes
at
the
Gallowes
.
I
can
shew
you
Couetousnes
sweating
for
gaine
,
crowching
,
ramping
,
playing
Ape
,
Lion
,
or
Deuill
,
for
Money
:
I
can
discouer
to
you
Drunkennesse
,
rising
early
to
the
Wine
,
Malice
making
haste
to
the
death
of
Ammon
,
Ambition
running
after
Honour
,
faster
then
Peter
to
the
Sepulchre
;
Pride
whirling
in
her
Charriot
,
Wantonnes
shutting
vp
the
windowes
;
Bribery
creeping
in
at
the
Key-hole
,
euen
when
the
doore
of
Iustice
is
locked
vp
against
her
.
Among
all
these
I
see
not
repentance
:
Doth
she
stay
till
the
last
act
?
I
feare
the
tragedy
of
many
Soules
ruine
will
be
done
first
.
This
land
is
full
of
sinnes
,
(
let
me
speake
impartially
)
this
Citie
:
as
many
Lines
meete
at
the
Center
;
so
all
sinnes
by
a
generall
confluence
to
this
place
:
Glomerantur
in
vnum
innumerae
pestes
Erebj
:
The
mischiefes
of
Hell
are
swarmed
to
one
Crowde
,
and
we
haue
it
.
I
know
there
are
some
names
in
Sardj
,
some
that
make
Conscience
of
their
wayes
:
the
same
ayre
is
drawn
by
men
of
as
contrary
dispositions
,
as
is
the
opposition
of
the
two
Poles
:
that
I
may
say
of
the
liues
of
this
Citie
,
as
one
doth
of
Origen's
writinges
:
(
Vbi
bene
,
nemo
melius
:
Dumah
,
Egipt
,
Babilon
;
to
find
them
in
England
is
matter
of
amasement
.
It
was
an
admirable
and
astonishing
speach
(
the
Prophet
him selfe
thought
,
by
his
aduertisement
prefixed
,
The
virgin
Israel
hath
done
filthily
.
If
Harlots
and
Brothels
be
vnchast
,
they
doe
not
degenerate
from
their
kind
;
in
so
pure
a
Virgin
,
no
imagination
would
haue
dream't
it
.
It
is
no
newes
to
find
the
Deuill
in
Hell
:
to
haue
him
thrust
into
Paradise
,
tempting
and
preuayling
with
our
first
Parents
,
is
horrible
.
Let
Rome
and
Turkey
swell
with
the
poysons
of
Sathan
till
they
burst
,
who
wonders
?
to
finde
the
sputteringes
of
his
venime
in
the
Church
is
grieuous
:
If
we
be
accused
for
accusing
of
sinnes
,
let
the
Physition
be
blamed
for
discouering
Diseases
in
the
sicke
bodie
:
we
must
speake
;
Oh
yet
—
Si
nostra
sperem
prece
posse
mouer●
,
that
wee
could
hope
with
any
sayinges
to
moue
you
:
If
the
worst
come
,
I
can
but
speed
,
as
others
before
me
.
Be
there
no
Vsurers
,
that
say
to
the
Gold
in
secret
,
You
are
my
Confidence
?
(
Populus

at

)
Vsury
is
no
sinne
,
many
learned
men
are
of
this
opinion
:
But
I
aske
him
,
if
his
Conscience
can
be
so
satisfied
:
would
he
not
willingly
giue
one
hundred
pound
bagge
,
to
be
secured
in
this
poynt
?
Sure
,
it
is
(
at
the
least
)
not
safe
wading
farre
in
a
questionable
Water
;
if
it
could
be
safe
to
some
,
yet
how
many
haue
been
drowned
in
this
Whirlepoole
?
I
confesse
that
flesh
and
blood
puts
the
Bladders
of
Wealth
and
Promotion
vnder
their
Arme-holes
,
and
the
Deuill
holdes
them
vp
by
the
Chinne
,
till
they
come
to
the
deepest
,
and
then
,
as
the
Priestes
serued
Iudas
,
they
bid
them
shift
for
them selues
;
and
wanting
the
helpe
of
Repentance
of
swimme
,
downe
they
sinke
(
In
profundum
inferni
)
to
the
bottomlesse
bottom
of
Hell
.
These
two
,
are
not
vnfitly
compared
to
two
Milstones
;
the
Vsurer
is
the
nether
Stone
,
that
lyes
still
;
he
sittes
at
home
in
his
warme
Furres
,
and
spendes
his
time
in
a
deuillish
Arithmeticke
,
in
numeration
of
houres
,
dayes
,
and
moneys
,
in
substraction
from
others
estates
,
and
multiplication
of
his
owne
,
till
they
haue
diuided
the
earth
to
themselues
,
and
themselues
to
Hell
:
The
Broker
runnes
round
like
the
vpper
Mill-stone
,
and
betwixt
both
these
,
the
poore
is
grinded
to
powder
.
Vsury
(
you
say
)
is
exploded
among
Saintes
,
I
would
you
would
deale
no
worse
with
couetousnesse
:
But
alasse
,
this
is
too
generall
a
fault
,
to
giue
any
hope
of
amendment
:
He
that
railed
on
Beelsebub
pulled
al
Ekrom
about
his
eares
:
He
that
sleighted
Melchom
,
prouoked
the
Ammonites
:
But
he
that
condemnes
Mammon
,
speakes
against
all
the
world
.
This
is
the
delight
,
the
loue
,
the
solace
of
many
,
the
God
of
some
:
Pouertie
,
sicknesse
,
age
,
are
all
the
Deuils
they
tremble
at
,
and
Beliall
,
Melchom
,
Mammon
,
Pleasures
,
Honours
,
Riches
,
all
the
Gods
they
worshippe
:
These
three
vsurping
Kings
,
like
the
three
seditious
Captaines
in
Ierusalem
,
or
those
three
Romane
Tyrants
,
Casar
,
Crassus
,
and
Pompey
,
haue
shared
the
world
amongst
them
,
and
left
God
least
,
who
owes
all
.
Lactantius
speakes
of
one
Tullus
Hostilius
,
that
put
Feare
&
Palenes
into
the
number
of
Gods
:
It
is
pittie
that
euer
his
Gods
should
goe
from
him
,
it
is
(
not
pittie
,
but
)
iustice
,
that
these
Gods
,
and
the
true
God
too
,
should
forsake
such
reprobates
,
that
idolatrize
the
honour
to
Creatures
,
wherewith
they
should
worship
the
Creator
.
But
alas
,
how
is
Pharaobs
Dreame
verified
among
vs
?
The
leane
Kine
eate
vp
the
fatte
:
Gods
leane
blessinges
,
riches
,
and
pleasures
,
deuowre
his
fatte
ones
,
Grace
and
Religion
:
How
it
dishonours
God
,
disparageth
our selues
,
and
our
creation
,
to
put
Lead
in
a
Cabinet
of
gold
,
base
desires
in
a
faire
and
precious
soule
.
We
neuer
yet
attained
the
toppe
of
Mount
Syon
:
He
that
stands
on
the
Towre
of
Diuine
meditation
,
will
iudge
those
Pigmeys
,
which
below
he
thought
Giants
:
but
we
desire
not
Heauen
,
Canaan
,
(
Vbi
amor
,
ibi
oculus
:
)
where
the
loue
is
,
there
is
the
eye
.
This
S.
Augustine
shortly
and
soundly
reproues
:
(
Si
sursum
os
,
cur
deorsum
cor
?
)
hath
Nature
giuen
vs
an
vpright
●ace
,
It
is
hard
for
a
rich
man
to
get
into
Heauen
:
The
Prouerbe
sayth
,
There
is
no
earthly
Gate
,
but
an
Asse
laden
with
Gold
can
enter
:
and
this
onely
loding
,
hinders
our
entring
the
gates
of
Glory
.
A
wealthy
and
great
man
,
serued
vp
to
Gods
table
in
his
kingdome
,
is
as
rare
as
Venison
at
our
Boardes
on
earth
:
there
are
sometimes
such
seruices
,
not
often
.
Is
this
all
?
no
,
Gluttony
is
not
much
lesse
generall
,
no
lesse
euill
:
Drunkennesse
makes
a
man
so
giddy
he
can
not
stand
,
and
Gluttonie
so
pursie
that
he
cannot
goe
:
That
old
Verse
and
Rule
is
forgotten
in
our
Feastes
:
Too
soone
,
too
fine
,
too
daintily
:
Too
taste
,
too
much
,
is
gluttony
.
There
is
an
appetite
naturall
,
when
the
stomach
can
extract
no
more
iuyce
from
meates
receiued
,
it
couets
more
:
There
is
an
appetite
sensuall
,
when
the
rich
sayes
,
My
Soule
eate
,
not
my
Body
:
nay
,
are
not
some
in
this
Citie
,
like
those
Horace
speakes
of
?
when
their
estate
can
reach
but
to
Herrings
,
Non
plures
gladio
,
quam
cecidere
gula
:
The
enemies
Sword
kils
not
more
,
then
their

Throate
.
Swearing
and
Whoredome
I
will
ioyne
togeather
,
(
as
most
sinnes
goe
by
couples
)
so
the
Prophet
,
The
Land
is
full
of
Adulterers
,
and
for
Oathes
the
Land
mourneth
.
Adde
vnto
Swearing
,
(
the
twin-brone
brother
of
it
)
Cursing
;
I
must
not
forget
my
Edomite
,
the
Gallant
:
If
you
would
see
an
Impostume
conflate
and
swolne
vp
with
all
these
rancke
corruptions
,
all
the
former
mischiefes
,
reconciling
themselues
to
a
wretched
vnitie
in
one
soule
,
a
packe
and
bundle
of
sinnes
,
snatched
from
their
seuerall
owners
,
(
Enuy
from
the
Malitious
,
Haughtines
from
the
Proude
,
Derision
from
the
Scorner
,
&c.
and
engrossed
to
one
heart
,
an
Embleme
,
a
Pageant
,
a
short
Commentarie
of
all
the
Deuilles
proceedings
,
a
Mappe
of
his
walkes
,
plottes
,
and
actions
;
behold
the
Gallant
:
I
taxe
not
the
generous
Spirit
,
whose
birth
and
accoutrementes
are
worthy
and
high
,
his
minde
humble
.
Oh
how
comely
are
good
Cloathes
to
a
good
Soule
,
when
the
Grace
within
,
shall
beautifie
the
Attire
without
;
and
not
gay
Ragges
,
impudently
beare
out
Wicked
actions
:
Farre
be
it
from
me
to
thinke
these
Edomites
,
or
any
other
thing
,
then
the
Diamondes
,
that
grace
our
Ring
,
no
,
they
are
the
gallant
Esauites
,
the
profane
Roysters
,
to
whom
I
speake
,
and
that
from
a
text
of
Repentance
,
desiring
from
my
soule
,
that
they
may
scape
the
Burden
of
Dumah
,
by
reiecting
the
manners
,
and
make
more
account
of
their
Birth-right
,
then
sell
it
for
messes
of
Pottage
,
Lustes
,
and
Vanities
:
But
if
they
will
note
themselues
with
the
Cole
and
Brand
of
Prophanesse
,
they
must
not
looke
to
escape
our
Censures
:
wee
cannot
heare
their
Oathes
,
beating
the
vnvulnerable
breast
of
Heauen
,
not
see
their
Pride
,
testifying
to
their
face
,
if
they
should
plead
innocence
;
nor
be
vnwillingly
conscious
of
their
Atheisticall
Iestes
,
There
are
other
open
,
and
infinite
secret
sinnes
,
which
they
thinke
no
eye
sees
:
But
there
are
witnesses
,
the
Angels
good
and
bad
,
the
Conscience
of
the
committers
,
and
the
iudge
of
the
Conscience
:
Si
nemo
,
non
tamen
nullus
)
if
no
man
,
yet
not
none
:
therefore
what
thou
darest
not
to
doe
thy
fellow
seruant
looking
on
thee
,
Were
these
the
sinnes
of
Edom
,
and
are
they
not
the
sinnes
of
England
?
The
sinnes
saide
I
?
nay
,
the
Gods
of
England
:
For
the
Vsurer
adores
his
mettalles
,
the
Epicure
his
Iunketts
,
the
Drunkard
his
Gallons
,
the
Voluptious
his
Lusts
,
the
Adulterer
his
Harlottes
,
the
Proude
and
gallant
Edomite
his
gaye
Cloathes
,
and
studyed
carriage
:
And
as
the
Israe●ies
cried
to
their
Calfe
made
of
golden
Eare
rings
,
These
are
thy
Gods
oh
Israell
:
So
wee
may
speake
it
with
horror
and
amasement
,
of
these
foolish
,
Thesè
are
thy
Gods
oh
England
:
weake
,
wretched
,
vnhelpefull
Gods
:
For
shame
,
what
,
where
are
wee
?
could
Edom
euer
be
worse
?
Haue
we
deuoured
so
many
yeares
of
peace
,
ease
,
plentie
,
and
saturitie
,
(
if
I
may
so
call
it
)
of
Gods
word
;
and
are
we
still
so
lame
,
le●ne
,
and
ill
fauoured
in
our
liues
?
what
shall
I
say
?
hath
the
sweet
Ghospell
,
and
the
sober
preaching
of
it
,
made
vs
sensuall
,
senseles
;
impudent
,
franticke
?
as
the
nature
of
that
Countrey
is
wonderfull
,
Fathers
and
Breathren
,
helpe
:
Pittie
the
miscarrying
soules
,
that
haue
no
mercy
on
themselues
:
our
Wordes
are
thought
ayre
,
let
your
Hands
compell
them
to
the
seruice
of
God
:
The
sword
of
the
Spirit
;
and
though
it
can
deuide
the
Marrow
and
the
bones
,
The
medecine
to
heale
all
this
,
both
for
Patient
and
Physitian
,
is
repentance
;
not
a
iaculatory
crye
of
Lord
forgiue
me
,
nor
the
flash
of
a
melancholy
passion
,
but
a
sound
,
serious
,
and
substantiall
repentance
.
Rome
hath
an
holy
water
of
vertue
,
they
say
,
to
purge
and
wash
away
all
her
spottes
:
England
hath
her
holy
water
too
,
which
,
too
many
trust
in
for
sufficient
,
we
looke
vp
and
crye
,
Lord
thy
mercie
,
and
wipe
our
lippes
,
as
if
we
had
not
sinned
:
yet
by
and
by
to
our
former
vomite
.
But
the
repentance
,
that
resolues
for
Heauen
,
throwes
away
all
impediments
▪
if
Gold
,
if
pleasure
,
if
a
Throne
were
in
the
way
,
she
would
fling
them
aside
:
she
hath
an
eye
bent
on
the
Mercie●seate
,
and
a
foote
that
runnes
straight
to
it
:
she
turnes
not
into
Samaria
,
because
she
is
offered
lodging
there
,
nor
into
the
Court
of
Egipt
,
to
be
called
the
Sonne
of
Phar●os
Daughter
:
the
pleasures
of
Babilon
stay
her
not
,
the
Good-fellowes
of
Sodome
make
her
not
looke
backe
:
she
forgets
what
is
behind
,
and
neuer
rests
,
like
the
Kine
that
carryed
the
Arke
,
till
she
comes
to
the
fieldes
of
Bethshemesh
,
the
haruest
of
grace
and
goodnesse
;
nor
ceaseth
lowing
with
sorrow
till
she
be
sped
of
the
mercies
of
God
:
she
hath
felt
the
weight
of
sinne
and
sorrow
,
and
abhorres
the
cause
of
them
both
:
she
hates
not
the
diuell
worse
then
her
former
iniquities
,
and
if
it
were
possible
,
she
would
neuer
more
offende
:
Thus
,
this
is
to
returne
;
what
you
want
of
this
,
you
come
short
of
repentance
.
The
thirde
degree
followes
to
make
vp
our
perfection
:
Returning
;
Vp
and
e●te
Elias
,
thou
hast
a
greater
iourney
to
goe
:
strengthen
thy
heart
,
ôh
Christian
,
R●stat
tibi
tertia
meta
)
thou
hast
a
third
marke
to
ayme
at
.
Come
,
home
to
thy
God
,
by
a
Chast
and
Holy
life
;
it
is
not
currant
pay
with
God
,
to
part
with
our
Vanities
,
except
we
imbrace
a
Religious
conuersation
.
Paul
makes
it
as
necessarie
a
part
of
Christianitie
,
to
Put
on
the
New
man
,
as
to
put
off
the
Old
:
It
is
not
enough
to
cease
doing
euill
,
but
it
is
damnable
not
to
doe
well
:
Hee
that
gathers
not
with
Christ
,
scattereth
.
It
was
the
threatning
doome
in
Iohn
Baptists
Sermon
,
not
to
the
Barren
,
but
to
the
Euil-fruited
Tree
.
Christes
speach
carries
the
same
sense
and
force
against
the
Pharises
,
though
spoken
to
his
Disciples
:
Except
your
Righteousnesse
,
&c.
he
sayes
not
,
Vnlesse
your
righteousnesse
be
lesse
then
theirs
;
but
,
Except
your
righteousnesse
be
more
,
exceed
,
you
shall
not
see
heauen
.
Hee
that
inquires
the
way
to
Heauen
,
and
turnes
toward
it
,
hath
past
two
degrees
of
my
Text
,
and
his
owne
Pilgrimage
;
but
he
gets
litle
of
either
prayse
or
comfort
,
except
he
come
home
to
it
:
Heere
is
not
so
much
perseuerance
lessened
,
as
perfection
:
there
is
extreme
wrong
,
extreme
right
and
mercie
.
The
2.
first
,
shal
be
shut
out
of
Heauen
;
the
last
onely
,
hath
a
promise
of
entraunce
.
Iudgement
without
mercy
,
shal
be
to
him
that
sh●wes
no
mercy
;
not
to
the
cruell
onely
,
but
to
him
that
is
but
meerely
iust
:
The
want
of
●ustice
is
not
onely
damned
,
he
that
hath
much
forgiuen
him
,
loues
much
.
The
Prodigall
does
not
onely
turne
from
his
Harlottes
and
vices
,
but
comes
home
to
his
Fathers
house
:
There
was
no
stinte
in
that
sinfull
Womans
penitence
,
till
she
had
powred
●loods
of
teares
on
the
feete
of
our
Sauiour
:
The
conscience
of
Zacheus
was
not
disburdened
,
by
ceasing
his
extortion
,
but
by
restitution
to
the
wronged
,
commiseration
to
the
distressed
,
euen
to
one
halfe
of
his
goods
,
and
these
are
the
commended
penitents
.
How
sortes
our
practise
with
this
Doctrine
?
shew
me
a
sacrilegious
Patron
,
a
Pyrate
of
the
Church
,
that
(
if
his
hand
cease
from
spoyling
God
of
his
Tithes
,
yet
)
will
repayre
the
breaches
,
his
rapine
hath
made
:
shew
me
a
Bribe-guilty
Officer
,
seeke
out
with
wette
eyes
,
and
reward
with
a
full
hand
,
the
wronged
Suitors
:
how
many
are
more
cruell-hearted
then
Iudas
,
that
neyther
on
repentance
nor
despaire
will
bring
backe
the
price
of
the
Poores
Blood
,
which
they
haue
sucked
?
Behold
the
earthly
Churle
,
to
make
his
sonne
a
Gentleman
,
prostituting
his
honesty
,
conscience
,
soule
,
and
forsaking
his
owne
mercie
:
(
as
the
Prouerbe
is
vile
,
if
euer
true
,
Happy
is
that
Sonne
,
whose
Father
goes
to
the
Diuell
:
)
After
he
hath
mowed
Corne
,
or
fatted
his
Oxe
,
on
the
very
place
,
(
〈◊〉
Trotafuit

where

of

Sanctuary
;
curseye

,
sayth
the
Angell
of
the
Lord
,
curse
the
inhabitantes
thereof
,
because
they
came
not
foorth
,
to
h●lp●
the
Lord
in
the
day
of
battaile
:
Did
they
fight
against
God
?
No
,
they
helped
him
not
:
They
must
restore
the
extorted
Landes
and
Houses
of
their
breathren
;
nay
,
remit
some
part
of
the
debt
,
or
they
were
cursed
with
that
fearefull
sacrament
,
the
shaking
the
lappe
of
his
Garment
,
so
to
be
shaken
out
of
Israell
,
all
the
congregation
crying
,
Amen
.
Lastly
,
beyond
all
exception
,
the
manner
of
the
Lambes
comming
to
Iudgement
,
testifies
as
much
;
Goe
ye
Cursed
:
For
what
cause
?
Because
ye
denyed
the
Labourer
his
hire
,
or
tooke
Bread
from
the
hungry
,
&c.
No
,
these
are
crying
Sinnes
,
and
Hasten
before
vnto
Iudgement
:
But
,
You
gaue
them
not
,
therefore
,
(

Goe
ye
cursed
;
so
Come
yee
blessed
.
What
,
because
ye
dealt
iustly
,
and
gaue
euery
man
his
due
?
no
,
these
vertues
may
be
in
morall
men
that
want
Fayth
and
Christianitie
:
But
,
You
gaue
them
your
owne
bread
;
Hungry
,
and
clad
them
Naked
,
with
your
owne
cloathes
;
therefore
,
Come
ye
blessed
.
What
vse
you
will
make
of
this
,
I
know
not
;
what
vse
you
should
make
,
I
know
:
If
the
Tree
without
good
fruite
shal
be
burned
,
what
shall
become
of
the
Tree
that
hath
euill
?
If
Barrennesse
be
cast
into
the
fire
,
what
doth
Rapine
and
Robberie
deserue
?
If
it
be
damnation
enough
to
deny
our
owne
Bread
,
what
is
it
to
take
away
the
onely
Loafe
,
Coate
,
or
Cottage
of
our
poore
brother
?
Woe
to
the
Backe
that
weares
the
Garment
,
to
the
Bellies
that
deuowers
the
Food
,
they
neuer
sweate
for
;
I
meane
,
that
by
force
or
fraud
,
tooke
them
from
the
owners
.
If
Naball
and
Diues
burne
for
not
giuing
their
owne
,
what
shall
become
of
Ahab
and
Iesabell
,
for
taking
away
the
Vineyard
of
Naboth
?
If
the
righteous
be
scarcely
saued
,
where
shall
the
vngodly
and
the
sinner
appeare
?
Now
if
after
this
Phisicke
giuen
,
I
should
aske
many
,
how
they
feele
the
Pulses
of
their
Consciences
beate
?
I
presume
on
this
reply
:
(
Notum
loq●eris
)
you
but
guild
Gold
,
and
minister
to
vs
such
Phisicke
,
as
we
haue
taken
before
.
All
this
we
know
;
(
we
doe
not
euermore
ply
your
vnderstandinges
with
new
thinges
;
but
lay
old
,
almost
dead
&
forgotten
,
fresh
to
the
Conscience
:
)
I
aske
further
,
how
much
of
this
haue
you
practised
?
and
still
looke
for
an
affirmatiue
answere
,
All
this
,
haue
I
kept
from
my
youth
.
Let
vs
reason
&
discusse
this
matter
a
litle
.
To
Enquire
,
is
hearing
,
or
rather
harkning
to
the
word
to
Returne
,
is
repenting
:
to
Come
,
is
beleeuing
,
or
rather
looking
more
toward
perfection
,
proceeding
into
the
ripenesse
of
Fayth
.
This
latter
is
so
necessarie
,
that
we
can
not
come
to
God
with
his
acceptance
;
our
comfort
,
if
wee
leaue
our
Fayth
behind
vs
;
without
this
,
impossible
to
please
him
,
to
be
rewarded
of
him
:
This
our
Charter
wherby
we
hold
all
our
Priuiledges
,
our
Title
in
Capi●e
to
Earth
and
Heauen
:
But
(
Sub
●udice
Lis
est
)
the
great
Iudge
of
Heauen
shall
one
day
censure
it
:
meane
time
,
giue
me
leaue
to
helpe
thee
,
peruse
this
euidence
of
thy
Fayth
,
whereon
thou
so
presumest
.
Christ
dying
,
made
a
Will
,
sealed
it
with
his
owne
Blood
,
wherein
he
bequeathed
a
certaine
Inheritaunce
to
his
breathren
:
the
Conueyance
is
the
Gospell
,
(
this
his
Testament
:
)
the
executor
of
this
Will
,
is
the
Holy
ghost
:
our
Tenure
and
Euidence
,
is
our
Fayth
.
Now
,
thou
layest
title
to
Ierusalem
for
a
childs
part
:
What
's
thy
title
?
in
Christes
name
and
right
:
what
conueyance
did
Christ
euer
make
thee
of
such
a
portion
?
Yees
,
he
conueyed
it
to
mee
by
Will
:
What
,
by
a
speciall
name
?
no
,
but
by
a
generall
title
to
all
beleeuers
:
That
I
am
one
of
these
heires
,
my
euidence
;
my
Fayth
.
Let
God
alone
to
try
thy
Fayth
:
If
thou
commest
to
me
for
counsell
,
sayth
S.
Iames
,
thou
must
shew
me
another
euidence
:
Shew
me
thy
faith
by
thy
works
.
If
thy
heart
be
corrupt
,
thy
hands
filthy
,
thy
tongue
false
,
thy
euidence
is
but
counterfaite
.
Christ
giues
not
title
of
inheritaunce
in
Heauen
,
to
such
as
haue
no
holinesse
on
Earth
:
Know
ye
not
that
the
vnrighteous
shall
not
inherite
the
kingdome
of
God
?
Be
not
deceiued
,
neither
Fornicato●s
,
&c.
And
there
shall
enter
into
it
no
vncleane
thing
,
nor
any
thing
that
worketh
abhomination
,
or
lyes
.
Perhappes
thou
wilt
yet
stand
vpon
it
:
produce
thy
witnesses
:
they
are
onely
two
,
thy
Life
,
thy
Conscience
:
they
cannot
speake
with
thee
,
against
their
maker
and
thine
.
Thy
life
speakes
lowde
,
and
plaine
:
Thy
pride
,
drunkennesse
,
oppression
,
cousenage
,
lustes
,
blasphemies
,
manifest
thou
hast
but
a
broken
title
:
and
Paul
pleads
against
thee
,
Protest
to
them
yee
beleeue
in
God
,
that
they
be
carefull
to
shew
foorth
good
workes
.
They
that
haue
the
euidence
of
faith
,
must
haue
the
witnes
of
workes
:
It
is
a
poore
deed
,
without
witnesses
.
Thy
conscience
speakes
plaine
too
,
that
thy
faith
is
but
a
carnall
perswasion
,
bred
of
securitie
;
a
forged
Euidence
,
made
by
a
false
Scriuener
the
Diuell
,
to
deceiue
thy
owne
eyes
and
the
worldes
,
not
Gods
.
Now
where
is
thy
claime
?
stand
vpon
good
assurance
,
lest
when
that
subtile
winnower
Satan
,
comes
to
fift
thee
graine
after
graine
,
thou
prouest
Chaffe
:
we
may
come
with
this
carnall
perswasion
,
little
better
then
reprobate
hope
,
to
the
Temples
,
to
the
Pulpittes
to
the
Sacraments
,
but
if
we
come
so
to
the
tribunall
of
Christ
,
woe
vnto
vs
:
the
too
much
trusting
to
a
verball
,
leane
,
sicke
,
starued
faith
,
deceiues
many
a
Soule
:
whiles
we
couet
to
be
solifidians
in
opinion
,
wee
prooue
nullifidians
in
practise
:
no
matter
for
wisedome
in
the
Soule
,
grace
in
the
conscience
,
honesty
in
the
life
,
if
the
profession
of
faith
be
in
the
tongue
:
but
the
Poore
may
say
as
he
in
the
Comedie
:
(
Oculatae
mihi
sunt
manus
,
credunt
,
quod
vident
:
)
My
handes
haue
eyes
,
and
they
beleeue
what
they
see
:
wee
carry
the
formes
and
outsides
of
Christians
,
and
thinke
God
beholding
to
vs
,
for
gracing
his
materiall
,
earthly
Temples
;
when
in
the
Temples
of
our
owne
heartes
,
wee
sette
vp
the
Idolls
of
our
owne
affections
,
The
spirit
of
Christ
is
in
vs
,
At
least
hath
his
deathes-wound
:
But
alasse
,
in
how
many
of
vs
doth
sinne
liue
,
dwell
,
(
I
would
I
might
stay
there
,
nay
euen
)
raigne
?
as
if
Christ
had
come
to
destroy
the
Diuell
,
the
Diuell
,
but
to
loose
and
dissolue
his
workes
.
I
haue
read
and
obserued
in
the
Historie
of
Scotland
,
a
certaine
controuersie
betwixt
that
Kingdome
and
Ireland
,
for
a
little
Iland
that
lay
betweene
them
;
eyther
claimes
it
as
their
due
,
and
the
strife
growing
hotte
,
was
falling
from
wordes
to
blowes
:
but
reason
moderated
both
sides
,
and
they
put
it
to
the
decision
of
a
Frenchman
;
who
thus
iudged
it
:
he
caused
lyning
Serpents
to
be
put
into
that
Iland
;
if
they
liued
and
thriued
there
,
he
iudged
it
Scotlands
;
if
they
pyned
and
dyed
,
he
gaue
it
for
Ireland
.
You
can
apply
it
easily
:
If
the
venemous
Serpents
,
poysons
,
and
corruptions
of
our
natures
batten
and
thriue
in
vs
,
wee
are
Satans
;
if
they
languish
and
consume
,
wee
are
Gods
:
thus
is
the
title
ended
for
the
freehold
of
our
Soules
,
by
what
sure
rule
wee
may
know
,
whether
they
belong
to
Hell
or
Heauen
.
If
our
harts
be
vnstabled
of
these
beastiall
lusts
,
and
trimmed
vp
with
Sanctimony
to
entertaine
our
holy
Guest
,
there
shall
be
a
reciprocall
and
enterchangeable
comming
of
vs
to
Christ
,
and
Christ
to
vs
:
and
we
shall
as
surely
suppe
with
him
in
his
Court
of
glory
,
he
hath
supped
with
vs
,
in
our
house
of
Obedience
.
Let
vs
only
feare
,
least
our
want
of
Repentance
hinder
this
.
I
should
haue
earst
obserued
it
,
as
a
materiall
instruction
from
this
place
,
I
could
not
find
a
fitter
time
to
insert
it
,
then
here
,
to
draw
your
comming
with
more
alacritie
.
There
is
a
reseruation
to
repentance
,
euen
to
abhorred
Edom
:
let
the
sonnes
of
the
prophanest
Esau
repent
,
and
they
shall
not
be
forsaken
of
mercie
:
Returne
and
come
,
and
your
night
threatned
,
shall
be
made
a
ioyfull
warning
,
though
it
had
as
certaine
&
defined
a
time
,
as
euer
had
Ionas
doome
against
Niniueh
,
the
sett
bounds
of
40.
dayes
,
with
a
Non
vltra
:
yet
be
you
humbled
and
this
iudgement
shall
be
dispensed
with
:
If
there
be
such
mercie
to
Edom
,
let
me
say
boldly
,
repenting
Israell
shall
not
faile
of
it
:
the
night
shall
linger
,
and
the
Sun
be
kept
from
setting
,
if
wee
will
returne
in
our
day
:
the
threatnings
of
God
haue
a
condition
included
;
that
generall
,
that
promised
,
that
neuer
refused
interposition
of
repentance
.
As
absolute
as
the
speech
might
seeme
to
Abimelech
,
withholding
Abrahams
wife
,
thou
art
but
a
dead
man
,
yet
it
had
an
implicite
condition
,
except
thou
restore
her
vndefiled
,
as
appeares
by
the
sequele
.
It
is
a
common
Fountaine
where
at
euery
repentant
soule
may
drinke
,
at
what
time
soeuer
,
what
sinner
soeuer
,
repent
of
what
sinne
soeuer
,
&c.
And
if
yet
any
feele
themselues
thirsty
,
weake
,
and
not
throughly
resolued
,
let
him
for
euer
confute
the
distrust
of
his
owne
heart
▪
the
malice
of
Sathan
,
the
present
difficulties
,
God
hath
threatned
to
all
sinners
,
a
Night
of
sorrow
,
and
it
shall
as
surely
come
,
as
euer
Euening
succeeded
day
:
but
there
is
an
Except
,
that
shall
saue
vs
,
a
seasonable
and
substantiall
repentance
:
if
we
turne
from
those
winding
Labyrinths
of
sinne
,
and
come
home
to
God
,
hee
will
saue
vs
from
this
Night
,
that
wee
perish
not
:
there
is
no
comming
to
God
,
but
in
&
by
Iesus
Christ
;
through
his
Sonne
must
God
looke
at
vs
,
and
wee
at
him
;
that
he
may
be
mercifull
,
we
hopefull
.
Come
then
beloued
,
to
Iesus
Christ
:
behold
him
with
the
eyes
of
Fayth
,
standing
on
the
Battlementes
of
Heauen
,
and
wafting
you
to
him
:
come
freely
,
come
merrily
,
come
with
speede
;
come
betimes
,
least
when
you
would
,
you
cannot
for
want
of
direction
,
dare
not
for
want
of
acquaintance
with
him
:
he
that
comes
not
till
the
last
gaspe
of
extremitie
,
knowes
not
how
to
come
,
because
he
begins
but
then
.
How

and
either
we
not

,
or
vnwillingly
,
or

,
or
with

How
iustly
may

him
from
his
follies
:
on
the
two
flatterers
,
he
spent
his
Patrimony
;
the
third
he
castes
off
with
contempt
:
his
ryot
and
wealth
gone
,
his
Friendes
went
too
;
for
they
were
friendes
to
the
Riches
,
not
to
the
Rich
man
:
Debt
was
required
,
hee
arrested
,
and
the
Prison
not
to
be
auoyded
:
in
this
calamitie
,
he
studies
refuge
;
hence
bethinkes
himselfe
of
his
two
Friends
,
of
whom
he
desires
reliefe
:
the
first
's
answere
is
cold
and
short
,
Alas
,
I
can
not
spare
it
,
you
should
haue
preuented
this
●arst
:
The
other
speakes
a
litle
more
comfort
;
I
haue
no
Money
to
helpe
you
,
yet
I
will
beare
you
company
to
the
Prison-doare
,
and
there
leaue
you
:
The
distressed
man
findes
small
satisfaction
in
all
this
;
therefore
as
his
last
refuge
,
hee
calles
to
minde
his
third
Friend
,
whom
he
had
euer
scorned
,
wronged
;
and
after
much
wrastling
betwixt
shame
and
necessitie
,
hee
sendes
to
him
,
with
no
lesse
earnestnesse
,
then
humilitie
,
discouers
his
exigents
,
requires
helpe
:
the
Message
scarce
deliuered
,
hee
comes
with
speed
,
payes
the
Debt
,
sets
him
at
libertie
,
nay
repayres
the
ruines
of
his
estate
.
The
Rioter
,
is
Man
;
the
two
flattering
Friends
,
are
Riches
and
Pleasures
;
these
the
soule
of
man
embraceth
,
spends
her
strength
and
time
,
most
precious
Riches
,
on
them
:
The
third
Friend
,
that
rebukes
his
sinnes
,
is
Christ
;
this
because
distastefull
to
blood
and
flesh
,
without
regard
to
his
sauing
health
,
is
reiected
:
at
last
,
all
the
time
of
Grace
spent
,
the
soule
(
so
farre
)
in
Gods
debt
,
is
arrested
by
one
of
Gods
Serieants
,
Sicknesse
,
or
Calamitie
,
or
an
afflicted
Conscience
;
then
those
Friends
begin
to
slinke
;
Pleasure
is
gone
sodainely
,
so
soone
as
the
Head
begins
to
ake
:
Riches
(
perhaps
)
will
offer
to
goe
with
him
to
the
Prison
doare
the
gates
of
Death
,
the
preparation
to
the
Graue
:
the
fainting
Soule
fore-seeing
their
falshood
,
weakenesse
,
aggrauation
of
his
miseries
;
with
an
humbled
Heart
,
remorsefull
Conscience
,
Teares
in
his
eyes
,
Prayers
and
Cryes
in
his
tongue
,
sollicites
his
neglected
Sauiour
,
to
pittie
his
distresse
,
and
haue
mercie
vpon
him
:
these
Messengers
haue
no
sooner
pierced
the
Heauens
,
but
downe
comes
the
spirit
of
Grace
and
Mercie
,
with
Pardon
and
free
Remission
,
payment
of
all
Debts
,
&
discharge
of
all
Sorrowes
.
If
euer
you
meet
with
Friend
more
able
,
more
willing
,
more
certen
,
to
doe
you
good
,
reiect
this
counsell
;
The
breath
of
all
men
is
in
their
nostrilles
,
and
there
is
no
helpe
in
them
,
;
when
not
onely
their
materiall
partes
,
Flesh
,
Blood
,
Bones
,
and
Marrow
,
but
euen
part
of
the
inward
man
,
so
farre
as
their
worldly
intendementes
went
,
Their
Thoughtes
perish
.
But
GOD
was
,
is
,
and
is
to
come
;
not
onely
in
Power
,
Iesus
Christ
yesterday
,
and
to
day
,
and
the
same
for
euer
.
That
Iesus
Christ
put
into
our
mouthes
a
tongue
to
Enquire
,
into
our
heartes
a
purpose
to
Returne
,
into
our
liues
a
grace
to
Come
home
to
holynes
,
and
himselfe
.
This
God
graunt
for
his
mercies
sake
,
Iesus
Christ
for
his
merits
sake
,
the
Holy
ghost
for
his
names
sake
,
to
whom
be
ascribed
all
honour
and
praise
,
for
euer
and
euer
.
Amen
.
