Psal
.
32.6
.
Surely
in
the
floud
of
many
waters
they
shall
not
come
neere
him
.
THe
principall
scope
of
the
Prophet
in
this
place
is
to
prooue
,
that
the
righteousnesse
,
and
so
the
blessednesse
of
man
consisteth
onely
in
the
free
forgiuenesse
of
his
sinnes
,
and
gratious
imputation
of
Christs
merits
.
His
argument
may
be
framed
thus
;
That
which
the
whole
church
and
euery
godly
man
therein
hath
euer
especially
prayed
for
in
all
afflictions
and
troubles
,
that
is
happinesse
:
But
for
remission
of
sinnes
euery
godly
man
will
pray
in
time
of
tribulation
:
Therefore
this
is
the
felicitie
of
the
faithfull
.
To
confirme
this
reason
more
fully
he
fetteth
downe
,
first
,
the
circumstances
going
before
the
prayer
;
For
this
shall
euery
one
that
is
godly
make
his
prayer
vnto
thee
in
a
time
when
thou
mayst
be
found
.
Then
,
the
forme
of
the
prayer
it selfe
;
Thou
art
a
place
to
hide
me
in
,
thou
shalt
preserue
me
from
trouble
,
thou
shalt
compasse
me
about
with
songs
of
deliuerance
.
Lastly
,
the
effect
following
the
prayer
;
Surely
in
the
flood
of
many
waters
they
shall
not
come
neere
him
.
Prayer
is
the
true
sacrifice
of
faith
.
The
efficacie
whereof
is
briefly
,
but
pithily
set
downe
to
the
Hebrewes
.
And
I
haue
spoken
els-where
somewhat
largely
of
this
point
.
Now
but
a
word
onely
to
make
a
fit
entrance
into
this
sermon
.
Take
it
therefore
thus
.
The
effects
of
prayer
heretofore
haue
bin
wonderfull
.
Prayer
hath
fet
downe
hailestones
from
heauen
,
to
ouercome
fiue
Kings
with
their
armies
.
Prayer
hath
shut
vp
the
windowes
of
heauen
that
it
should
not
raine
,
and
againe
hath
opened
them
that
the
earth
might
giue
her
encrease
.
Prayer
hath
staied
the
swift
course
of
the
sunne
,
and
caused
it
to
goe
backward
fifteene
degrees
.
Prayer
hath
held
Gods
hands
that
he
could
not
strike
when
he
was
readie
to
plague
his
people
.
Prayer
without
any
other
helpe
or
meanes
hath
throwne
downe
the
strong
walls
of
Iericho
.
Prayer
hath
deuided
the
sea
,
that
the
floods
thereof
could
not
come
neere
the
Israelites
.
In
this
place
it
deliuereth
the
faithfull
man
from
all
the
dangers
of
this
world
.
Surely
in
the
flood
of
many
waters
they
shall
not
come
neere
him
.
The
summe
is
this
;
That
no
calamities
of
this
world
,
no
troubles
of
this
life
,
no
terrours
of
death
,
no
guiltines
of
sinne
,
can
be
so
great
,
but
that
a
godly
man
by
meanes
of
his
faith
and
felicitie
in
Christ
,
shall
wade
out
of
them
well
inough
.
For
howsoeuer
other
things
goe
,
stil
he
shall
haue
such
a
solace
in
his
soule
,
such
a
comfort
in
his
conscience
,
such
a
heauen
in
his
heart
,
knowing
himselfe
reconciled
to
God
,
and
iustified
by
faith
,
that
Surely
in
the
flood
of
many
waters
they
shall
not
come
neare
him
.
Which
,
that
it
may
the
better
appeare
,
I
shall
desire
you
to
obserue
two
things
.
The
danger
:
the
deliuerance
.
The
danger
is
in
these
words
;
In
the
flood
of
many
waters
.
Where
the
tribulations
that
the
godly
man
is
subiect
to
in
this
life
,
are
likened
,
First
to
waters
:
then
to
many
waters
:
thirdly
,
to
a
flood
of
many
waters
;
In
the
flood
of
many
waters
.
The
deliuerance
is
in
these
words
;
Surely
they
shall
not
come
neare
him
.
Where
the
deliuerance
of
the
godly
man
hath
three
degrees
also
.
First
they
shal
not
come
neare
;
secondly
him
,
they
shall
not
come
neare
him
:
then
Surely
,
surely
they
shall
not
come
neere
him
.
Surely
in
the
flood
of
many
waters
,
they
shall
not
come
neere
him
.
First
,
the
afflictions
of
the
faithful
are
likened
to
waters
.
Fire
and
water
haue
no
mercie
we
say
.
But
of
the
two
water
is
the
worst
.
For
any
fire
may
be
quenched
with
water
,
but
the
force
of
water
,
if
it
begins
to
be
violent
,
cannot
by
any
power
of
man
be
resisted
.

Canutus
who
was
king
of
England
,
Scotland
,
Denmarke
,
Norway
,
and
a
great
part
of
Sueuia
all
at
once
,
sitting
at
a
low
water
vpon
the
Thames
shoare
,
commanded
the
water
not
to
come
neare
him
.
But
notwithstanding
his
commandement
the
water
returning
and
flowing
againe
,
as
that
in
Ezekiel
which
came
to
the
ancles
,
Ezek
.
47.3
.
then
to
the
knees
,
and
yet
higher
to
the
necke
,
so
neuer
left
rising
till
it
came
vp
neere
him
and
wet
him
.
Then
turning
about
to
his
noble
men
that
were
there
attendant
on
him
,
he
said
,
You
call
me
your
soueraigne
Lord
and
Master
,
and
yet
I
can
not
command
this
little
channell
of
water
,
to
keepe
aloofe
off
from
me
.
Whereupon
he
went
immediately
to
Westminster
,
and
with
his
own
hands
set
his
crowne
vpon
the
Crucifix
there
,
and
could
neuer
be
perswaded
after
to
weare
it
vpon
his
owne
head
.
This
experience
that
Canutus
so
mighty
a
king
made
,
doth
directly
prooue
,
Iob
.
38.11
.
that
no
man
but
God
onely
can
set
bars
and
doores
against
the
water
,
and
say
;
Hitherto
shalt
thou
come
,
but
no
further
,
and
here
shalt
thou
stay
thy
proud
waues
.
The
afflictions
of
the
righteous
therefore
beeing
here
compared
to
waters
,
Psal
88.8
.
must
needs
be
very
violent
.
For
thus
the
Psalmist
saith
,
Thine
indignation
lieth
hard
on
me
,
and
thou
hast
vexed
me
with
all
thy
waues
.
And
God
himselfe
;
I
will
powre
out
my
wrath
vpon
thee
,
as
water
.
So
that
the
securitie
and
felicitie
of
the
faithful
man
is
inuincible
.
Hos

He
may
be
often
in
danger
of
tribulations
as
of
great
waues
or
waters
,
but
they
shall
neuer
ouerwhelme
him
;
Surely
in
the
floud
of
many
waters
they
shall
not
come
neere
him
.
But
these
our
tribulations
which
are
waters
,
are
also
many
waters
.
Our
common
prouerb
is
,
Seldome
comes
sorrow
alone
.
But
as
waters
come
rouling
and
wauing
many
together
:
so
the
miseries
of
this
life
.
Ezek
.
1.10
.
The
Prophet
Ezekiel
saw
the
roule
of
a
booke
written
within
and
without
,
and
there
was
written
therein
,
Lamentations
,
and
singing
,
and
woe
.
This
booke
is
written
within
and
without
,
to
shew
that
many
are
the
troubles
of
the
righteous
,
both
outward
and
inward
.
And
it
is
two
to
one
if
any
thing
befall
vs
,
it
is
rather
an
ill
happe
,
then
a
good
happe
.
Seeing
for
one
singing
,
there
is
in
the
booke
a
double
sorrowing
,
lamentations
,
and
woe
.
Or
if
it
be
read
as
some
translate
it
;
Et
scriptura
in
co
erat
lamentationum
,
lugubrisque
carminis
,
&
vae
.
Tremell
.
Lamentations
,
and
mourning
,
and
woe
,
then
it
is
yet
more
plaine
,
th●●
in
this
world
many
troubles
as
many
waters
come
●●e
in
the
necke
of
an
other
,
no
earthly
ioy
or
comfort
comming
betweene
.
Psal
.
42.7
.
This
the
good
King
greatly
complaineth
of
,
One
deepe
calleth
an
other
because
of
the
noise
of
the
water
pipes
,
all
thy
floods
and
stormes
haue
gone
ouer
me
.
And
Iob
,
Iob
.
16.14
.
He
hath
giuen
me
one
wound
vpon
an
other
,
and
he
hath
runne
vpon
me
as
a
gyant
.
Philip
.
2.27
.
And
Saint
Paul
though
in
one
place
he
write
God
shewed
mercie
toward
him
,
that
he
should
not
haue
sorow
vpon
sorow
,
yet
oftentimes
elswhere
he
speaketh
of
his
owne
manifold
daungers
.
2.
Cor
.
11.26
.
I
suffered
thrice
shipwracke
,
saies
he
:
night
and
day
haue
I
bin
in
the
deepe
sea
.
In
iourneying
I
was
often
,
in
perills
of
waters
,
in
perills
of
robbers
,
in
perills
of
mine
owne
nation
,
in
perills
among
the
Gentiles
,
in
perills
in
the
citie
,
in
perills
in
the
wildernesse
,
in
perills
in
the
sea
,
in
perills
among
false
brethren
.
Thus
we
see
how
many
waters
the
godly
man
is
subiect
to
in
this
life
.
For
one
ioy
he
hath
at
the
least
two
sorowes
,
if
he
haue
no
more
:
one
deepe
calleth
an
other
:
one
wound
bringeth
an
other
:
he
hath
sorow
vpon
sorow
:
perills
vpon
perills
.
Many
waters
:
many
dangers
.
Neuerthelesse
,
Surely
in
the
flood
of
many
waters
,
they
shal
not
come
neare
him
.
Thirdly
,
the
dangers
of
this
life
,
are
as
a
flood
.
The
very
naming
and
mentioning
of
a
flood
must
needes
be
very
terrible
,
euer
since
Noahs
flood
destroyed
the
whole
world
.
For
euen
as
a
horse
or
a
mule
of
whom
the
Prophet
a
little
after
speaketh
in
this
Psalm
.
Ver
.
9.
hauing
been
once
well
lashed
with
a
whippe
,
doth
euer
after
feare
if
he
heare
but
the
bell
which
is
tied
to
the
whip
:
so
man
since
the
world
was
so
well
scoured
and
scourged
with
a
flood
,
could
neuer
almost
abide
either
to
talke
or
thinke
of
it
.
Now
though
our
whole
life
be
nothing
els
but
a
flood
of
many
waters
,
yet
nothing
in
the
world
may
more
fitly
be
so
called
,
then
our
going
out
of
the
world
.
This
indeede
bringeth
with
it
a
flood
of
many
waters
,
and
an
Ocean
sea
of
infinite
cares
.
Aristotle
writeth
that
nothing
is
so
terrible
as
death
,
1.
Mac.
6.11
.
which
Antiochus
feeling
sensibly
in
himselfe
,
crieth
out
thus
,
Oh
into
what
aduersitie
am
I
come
,
and
into
what
floods
of
miserie
am
I
now
fallen
?
He
addeth
the
reason
anon
after
;
For
I
must
die
with
great
sorrowe
in
a
strange
land
.
What
speake
I
of
a
wicked
tyrant
?
Holy
men
often
are
in
great
perplexitie
at
the
time
of
their
departure
.
S.
Hier
.
in
vita
cius
.
Hierom
writeth
of
Hilarion
,
that
being
ready
to
giue
vp
the
ghost
,
he
said
thus
to
his
soule
;
Go
forth
my
soule
,
why
fearest
thou
?
go
forth
,
why
tremblest
thou
?
Thou
hast
serued
Christ
almost
these
threescore
and
ten
yeares
,
and
dost
thou
nowe
feare
death
?
Christ
himselfe
also
feeling
that
he
was
compassed
about
with
the
sorrowes
of
death
,
began
to
be
afraid
,
and
to
be
in
great
heauinesse
,
and
he
said
moreouer
,
My
soule
is
very
heauie
euen
to
the
death
.
Mark
.
14.33
.
I
know
well
Christ
was
afraid
without
sinne
,
nay
with
great
comfort
.
For
he
praieth
thus
,
Not
as
I
will
,
but
as
thou
wilt
.
And
againe
,
Into
thy
hands
I
commit
my
spirit
.
This
then
was
his
comfort
,
that
the
Iewes
could
doe
nothing
in
putting
him
to
death
,
but
as
S.
Peter
testifieth
,
that
onely
which
his
father
both
by
his
counsell
and
will
had
decreed
,
and
by
his
hand
had
ordained
.
Hilarion
also
that
holy
antient
Father
comforteth
himself
with
this
,
that
he
had
serued
Christ
almost
seauentie
yeares
.
Other
children
of
God
haue
had
other
comforts
,
and
all
haue
this
,
that
both
in
life
and
in
death
they
are
happie
in
Christ
.
Howbeit
seeing
many
holy
Christians
,
and
euen
Christ
himselfe
feared
death
,
it
remaineth
that
death
simply
and
in
it selfe
considered
,
is
a
flood
of
many
waters
.
But
yet
the
faithfull
man
euen
in
death
is
out
of
all
danger
.
Surely
in
the
floods
of
many
waters
,
they
shall
not
come
neere
him
.
Thus
much
for
the
first
part
which
is
the
danger
;
In
the
flood
of
many
waters
.
The
second
part
followeth
,
which
is
the
deliuerance
;
Surely
,
they
shall
not
come
neere
him
.
First
,
they
shall
not
come
neere
.
They
,
that
is
,
The
waters
shall
not
come
neere
.
The
holy
Church
and
euery
member
thereof
is
likened
to
a
house
built
vpon
a
rocke
.
Matth
.
7.25
.
Vpon
which
though
the
winds
blow
,
and
the
floods
beate
,
yet
it
can
not
be
throwne
downe
,
because
it
is
built
vpon
a
rocke
.
So
that
the
floods
which
shake
it
,
can
neuer
come
neere
it
to
ouerthrowe
it
.
The
same
may
be
said
of
the
ship
couered
with
waters
.
It
might
well
floate
,
but
it
could
neuer
be
drowned
.
For
as
soone
as
the
Disciples
cryed
vpon
Christ
to
saue
them
,
Matth
.
8.24
.
presently
there
followed
a
great
calme
.
Therefore
Luther
when
his
life
was
sought
of
all
the
world
in
a
manner
,
translated
the
Psalme
Deus
noster
refugium
,
Psal
.
46.1
.
into
dumb
meeter
,
and
caused
it
to
be
sung
in
all
the
reformed
Churches
.
God
is
our
hope
and
strength
:
a
very
present
helpe
in
trouble
.
Therefore
will
we
not
feare
though
the
earth
be
mooued
,
and
though
the
hills
be
carried
into
the
midst
of
the
sea
.
Though
the
waues
thereof
rage
and
swell
:
and
though
the
mountaines
shake
at
the
tempest
of
the
same
.
S.
Peter
the
Apostle
began
to
sincke
,
but
he
sunke
not
right
downe
.
Christ
was
readie
at
hand
to
helpe
him
.
For
as
soone
as
he
sawe
himselfe
in
present
perill
and
danger
,
forthwith
he
cried
,
Master
saue
me
.
Saue
me
O
God
:
Psal
69.1
.
for
the
waters
are
come
in
euen
vnto
my
soule
.
and
16.
I
sticke
fast
in
the
deepe
mire
where
no
ground
is
:
I
am
come
into
deepe
waters
,
so
that
the
floods
runne
ouer
me
.
Take
me
out
of
the
mire
that
I
sinke
not
,
and
out
of
the
deepe
waters
.
Let
not
the
water
flood
drowne
me
,
neither
let
the
deepe
swallovv
me
vp
:
and
let
not
the
pit
shut
her
mouth
vpon
me
.
S.
Act.
27.34
.
Paul
likewise
suffered
shipwracke
,
but
lost
not
by
it
one
haire
of
his
head
.
Whereby
we
may
see
the
absurditie
of
the
Papists
.
They
would
prooue
that
iustifying
grace
may
be
lost
,
because
some
haue
made
shippewracke
of
faith
.

But
if
we
should
graunt
them
that
the
Apostle
speaketh
of
iustifying
not
of
historicall
faith
,
yet
we
haue
the
helpe
of
a
second
answer
.
To
wit
,
that
shipwracke
is
one
thing
,
and
drowning
an
other
.
Therefore
faith
which
is
wrackt
is
not
by
and
by
drowned
.
For
it
may
happen
to
suffer
shipwracke
as
S.
Paul
did
,
and
swimme
out
safe
to
the
shore
.
But
this
is
but
a
touch
by
the
way
.
Meane
season
we
see
how
safe
and
secure
the
faithfull
man
is
in
Christ
.
He
is
a
house
,
to
which
the
floods
may
come
neere
to
shake
it
,
but
neuer
to
throwe
it
downe
,
he
is
a
ship
,
which
the
waues
may
come
neer
to
tosse
it
,
but
neuer
to
turne
it
ouer
:
euen
as
Saint
Peter
began
to
sinke
,
but
still
kept
vp
his
head
:
and
S.
Paul
suffered
shipwrack
,
but
was
not
a
haire
the
worse
for
it
.
Surely
in
the
flood
of
many
waters
,
they
shall
not
come
neare
him
.
Secondly
,
him
.
They
shall
not
come
neere
him
.
This
word
must
in
no
case
be
omitted
.
It
helpeth
vs
to
answer
a
very
strong
obiection
.
For
it
may
be
saide
,
Many
holy
men
haue
lost
their
goods
,
haue
suffered
great
torments
in
their
bodie
,
haue
beene
troubled
also
in
minde
;
how
then
did
not
the
floods
of
many
waters
come
neere
them
?
The
word
Him
helps
vs
to
an
answer
.
The
very
Philosophers
themselues
reckned
their
goods
pertained
no
more
to
them
,
then
be
it
spoken
with
reuerence
&
regard
,
the
parings
of
their
nailes
.
Zenon
hearing
newes
he
had
lost
all
he
had
by
sea
,
Benè
facis
fortuna
cum
ad
pallium
nos
compellis
.
said
onely
thus
;
Thou
hast
done
very
well
Fortune
to
leaue
me
nothing
but
my
cloake
.
An
other
called
Anaxarchus
,
when
as
Nicocreon
the
tyrant
commanded
he
should
be
beaten
to
death
in
a
mortar
,
spake
thus
to
the
executioner
;
Beate
and
bray
as
long
as
thou
wilt
Anaxarchus
his
bag
or
sachell
(
so
he
called
his
owne
bodie
)
but
Anaxarchus
thou
canst
not
touch
.
Yet
these
making
so
small
reckoning
of
their
goods
and
bodie
,
set
their
minde
notwithstanding
at
a
high
rate
.
Mens
cuiusque
is
est
quisque
.
The
minde
of
a
man
,
is
himselfe
,
say
they
.
Hence
it
is
that
Iulius
Caesar
,
when
Amyclas
the
Pilot
was
greatly
afraid
of
the
tempest
,
spake
to
him
thus
,
What
meanest
thou
to
feare
base
fellow
,
dost
thou
not
know
thou
cariest
Caesar
with
thee
?
Caesarem
vehis
.
As
if
he
should
say
,
Caesars
bodie
may
well
be
drowned
,
as
any
other
mans
may
,
but
his
mind
,
his
magnanimitie
,
his
valour
,
his
fortitude
,
can
neuer
be
drowned
.
Thus
farre
went
Philosophie
:
But
Diuinitie
goeth
a
degree
further
.
For
Philosophie
defineth
Him
,
that
is
a
man
,
by
his
reason
and
the
morall
vertues
of
the
minde
;
but
Diuinitie
defineth
a
Christian
man
by
his
faith
and
his
coniunction
thereby
with
Christ
.
Tract
.
49.
in
Iohan
.
Vnde
mors
in
animâ
〈◇〉
quia
non
est
fides
.
Vnde
mors
in
corpore
?
quia
non
est
ibi
anima
.
Ergo
animae
tuae
anima
fides
est
.
Excellently
saith
S.
Austin
:
Whence
com's
it
,
that
the
soule
dyeth
?
Because
faith
is
not
in
it
.
Whence
that
the
body
dieth
?
Because
a
soule
is
not
in
it
.
Therefore
the
soule
of
thy
soule
is
faith
.
So
that
if
we
would
knowe
what
is
a
faithfull
man
,
we
must
define
Him
,
not
by
his
natural
soule
,
as
he
is
reasonable
,
but
by
the
soule
of
his
soule
,
which
is
his
faith
.
And
then
we
may
easily
answer
the
obiection
,
that
a
flood
may
come
neere
a
faithfull
mans
goods
,
neere
his
bodie
,
neere
his
reasonable
soule
,
but
to
his
faith
,
that
is
to
Him
,
it
can
neuer
come
neere
.
For
if
you
speake
of
the
life
and
essence
of
him
,
that
it
is
faith
,
the
Prophet
also
witnesseth
,
The
iust
shall
liue
by
faith
.
Abacuck
.
And
the
Apostle
,
Now
I
liue
not
,
Gal.
2.20
.
but
Christ
liueth
in
me
:
but
that
I
liue
,
I
liue
by
faith
in
the
sonne
of
God
,
who
loued
me
;
and
gaue
himselfe
for
me
.
And
he
that
was
wiser
then
all
the
Philosophers
determineth
this
doubt
thus
;
The
summe
of
the
matter
when
you
haue
heard
all
is
this
:
Feare
God
,
Eccles
.
12.13
and
keepe
his
commandements
;
for
this
is
all
of
man
.
All
of
man
,
what
's
that
.
All
of
man
which
will
hold
out
against
all
floods
of
many
waters
.
For
the
goods
of
man
may
be
gotten
away
by
forged
cauillation
:
the
bodie
of
man
may
be
weakened
by
sickenesse
:
the
soule
of
man
and
the
faculties
thereof
,
as
memorie
,
witte
,
and
such
like
,
may
be
impaired
by
age
,
but
faith
in
Christ
,
the
feare
of
God
,
a
care
to
keepe
his
commandements
,
is
all
of
man
,
which
no
floods
,
either
in
life
or
in
death
can
ouerwhelme
.
All
of
man
,
wherein
man
ought
to
imploy
himselfe
while
he
is
aliue
,
and
without
which
,
man
is
but
vanitie
when
he
is
dead
,
but
with
which
,
man
both
in
life
and
death
is
most
blessed
.
For
if
this
be
the
summe
of
all
,
then
of
any
thing
but
this
there
is
no
reckoning
at
all
to
be
made
.
I
haue
praied
for
thee
,
saith
our
Sauiour
,
Mat
.
16.18
.
that
thy
faith
should
not
faile
,
and
the
gates
of
hell
shall
not
preuaile
against
thee
.
For
loue
is
strong
as
death
:
ielously
is
cruell
as
the
graue
:
Can
.
8
7.
the
coales
thereof
are
fiery
coales
,
and
a
vehement
flame
.
Much
water
cannot
quench
loue
,
neither
can
the
floods
drowne
it
.
Euen
as
Paul
also
glorieth
,
Rom.
8.
that
nothing
can
separate
him
from
the
loue
of
God
which
is
in
Christ
Iesus
.
Wherefore
seeing
the
godly
man
is
so
inuincible
,
that
neither
the
gates
of
hell
,
nor
the
floud-gates
of
many
waters
,
can
preuaile
against
him
;
Surely
in
the
flood
of
many
waters
,
they
shall
not
come
neere
him
.
In
the
last
place
must
be
considered
the
asseueration
Surely
.
For
if
both
liuing
and
dying
my
felicitie
be
most
certaine
in
Christ
,
and
yet
I
know
not
so
much
,
what
comfort
can
I
gather
thereby
?
Now
in
all
aduersities
this
is
my
greatest
ioy
,
that
the
fauour
of
God
which
is
most
constant
in
it selfe
,
is
fully
assured
also
to
me
.
For
,
I
know
that
my
redeemer
liueth
.
And
if
I
be
iudged
,
I
know
I
shall
be
found
righteous
.
And
I
know
whom
I
haue
beleeued
,
and
I
am
sure
.
In
one
word
,
I
am
Surely
perswaded
,
that
neither
life
nor
death
,
Rom.
3.37
.
nor
any
thing
else
can
separate
vs
from
Christ
.
Nay
in
all
the
flood
of
waters
we
shal
be
more
then
conquerours
.
They
shall
not
come
neere
to
conquer
vs.
But
rather
we
shall
conquer
them
.
Yea
that
which
is
strangest
of
all
.
Surely
we
shall
be
more
then
conquerours
ouer
them
.
Though
an
host
of
men
were
laid
against
me
,
yet
shall
not
my
heart
be
afraid
:
Psal
.
27.3
.
and
though
there
rose
vp
warre
against
me
,
yet
will
I
put
my
trust
in
it
.
Not
in
him
,
as
it
is
ill
translated
in
the
English
,
but
in
it
;
that
is
,
In
the
very
warre
it selfe
.
I
will
not
feare
.
Nay
I
will
be
of
good
hope
.
Yea
Surely
in
the
very
warre
will
I
hope
and
trust
.
For
euen
as
a
building
made
archwise
,
the
more
waight
is
laid
vpon
it
,
the
more
strong
still
it
is
:
so
the
more
force
and
strength
is
brought
against
me
,
the
greater
triumph
and
victorie
I
shall
haue
.
Psal
.
3.7
.
Therefore
I
will
not
be
afraid
of
ten
thousand
of
the
people
,
that
haue
set
themselues
against
me
round
about
.
For
a
thousand
of
them
shall
fall
at
my
side
,
and
ten
thousand
at
my
right
hand
,
but
they
shall
not
come
neere
me
.
The
Arke
in
the
flood
was
not
drowned
,
Gen.
7.18
.
as
other
things
were
,
but
floated
vpon
the
waters
.
Yea
the
higher
the
waters
encreased
,
the
higher
Surely
for
that
did
the
Arke
still
arise
.
Likewise
the
red
sea
did
not
hinder
the
Israelites
passage
,
Exod
.
14.22
.
but
opened
an
easie
way
to
thē
.
Yea
Surely
it
was
moreouer
as
a
wall
to
backe
them
against
all
their
enemies
.
The
words
of
S.
Iames
are
very
plaine
;
My
brethen
,
Iam

1.2
.
compt
it
exceeding
ioy
when
you
fall
into
diuers
temptations
.
Tentation
of
it selfe
doth
vexe
and
disquiet
a
man
.
But
to
the
godly
it
is
a
ioy
.
As
we
read
elswhere
,
That
they
which
are
iustified
by
faith
haue
peace
,
nay
,
haue
easie
accesse
to
God
,
and
great
ioy
in
tribulations
.
But
the
Apostle
adding
,
Rom.
5.
that
this
ioy
is
not
common
or
ordinarie
,
but
Surely
exceeding
ioy
,
raiseth
vp
the
amplification
as
high
as
may
be
.
Whereunto
S.
Paul
also
accordeth
;
We
are
afflicted
on
euery
side
,
2.
Cor
.

yet
we
are
not
in
distresse
:
in
pouertie
,
but
not
ouercome
of
pouertie
:
we
are
persecuted
,
but
not
forsaken
:
cast
downe
,
but
we
perish
not
.
Here
he
prooueth
directly
,
that
the
flood
commeth
not
neere
the
faithfull
.
But
where
is
the
Surely
?
It
followeth
in
the
same
epistle
;
As
dying
,
and
behold
we
liue
:
as
chastened
,
and
yet
not
killed
:
as
sorrowing
,
and
yet
alwaies
reioycing
:
2.
Cor
.
6.10
.
as
poore
,
and
yet
making
many
rich
:
as
hauing
nothing
,
and
yet
possessing
all
things
.
O
the
securitie
and
felicitie
of
the
faithfull
!
For
his
faith
maketh
life
of
death
:
ioy
of
sorrowe
:
riches
of
pouertie
.
What
shall
I
say
more
?
or
what
would
you
haue
me
say
more
?
or
what
can
I
say
more
,
thē
as
the
Apostle
saies
?
It
makes
all
things
of
nothing
.
As
hauing
nothing
saies
he
,
and
yet
possessing
all
things
.
But
the
speciall
thing
to
be
noted
in
this
sentence
is
,
As
dying
,
and
Behold
we
liue
.
For
they
import
,
that
death
is
no
death
,
but
As
it
were
death
,
to
wit
,
an
image
or
a
shadowe
of
death
:
beeing
indeed
life
,
and
Surely
a
better
life
and
more
immortall
then
we
had
here
.
Therefore
he
saies
,
Behold
we
liue
,
to
shewe
that
by
death
the
faithfull
liue
a
life
wherein
there
is
some
great
specialty
and
excellencie
worthie
indeede
to
be
beholded
and
regarded
.
As
if
he
should
say
;
Behold
we
liue
,
Behold
we
liue
a
more
happy
life
,
then
euer
we
liu'd
in
our
life
.
S.
Augustin
often
commendeth
the
saying
of
his
master
S.
Ambrose
when
he
was
ready
to
die
.
Speaking
to
Stilico
and
others
about
his
bed
;
Non
ita
vixi
inter
vos
,
vt
me
pudeat
viuere
:
nec
mori
timeo
,
quia
bonum
dominum
habemus
.
Pontius
in
fine
vitae
eius
.
I
haue
not
liued
so
among
you
,
saith
he
,
that
I
am
ashamed
to
liue
longer
if
it
please
God
:
and
yet
againe
I
am
not
afraid
to
die
,
because
we
haue
a
good
Lord
.
He
doth
not
say
,
Mine
owne
goodnesse
putts
me
out
of
feare
,
but
Gods
goodnesse
.
This
goodnesse
of
God
makes
me
quiet
in
my
conscience
,
and
secure
in
soule
,
readie
to
embrace
death
whensoeuer
it
commeth
.
Wherefore
Surely
is
fitly
added
.
For
afflictions
as
waters
doe
not
ouercome
the
faithfull
.
Nay
they
come
not
neere
him
.
But
trariwise
the
faithfull
conquereth
afflictions
.
Yea
Surely
he
is
in
them
all
more
then
a
conquerour
.
In
warre
he
is
not
afraid
.
Rather
he
greatly
hopeth
.
And
Surely
euen
in
the
very
warre
he
hopeth
.
The
flood
of
waters
commeth
not
neere
to
drowne
the
arke
,
but
lift
it
vp
.
And
so
much
the
higher
Surely
the
arke
still
riseth
as
the
flood
riseth
.
The
sea
staieth
not
the
Israelites
passage
.
It
is
a
dry
land
for
them
to
march
on
.
As
a
wall
moreouer
to
backe
them
Surely
against
all
their
enemies
.
Tentation
not
onely
is
no
matter
of
sorrowe
,
but
also
on
the
other
side
of
ioy
,
and
Surely
of
great
ioy
.
Death
is
no
death
,
but
a
life
,
and
Surely
such
a
life
,
as
onely
of
it
we
may
say
,
Behold
we
liue
.
So
happy
both
in
life
and
death
is
the
faithfull
man
;
Surely
in
the
flood
of
many
waters
,
they
shall
not
come
neere
him
.
To
conclude
then
;
No
calamitie
or
aduersitie
can
possibly
disseuer
that
coniunction
which
faith
maketh
of
euery
godly
man
with
Christ
.
For
feeling
the
remission
of
his
sinnes
assured
and
sealed
vnto
him
,
he
contemneth
not
onely
the
works
of
the
world
and
dismayments
of
his
conscience
,
but
euen
the
very
feares
and
terrors
of
death
.
This
our
deare
brother
M.
Edward
Liuely
,
who
now
resteth
in
the
Lord
,
led
a
life
which
in
a
manner
was
nothing
els
but
a
continuall
flood
of
many
waters
.
Neuer
out
of
suites
of
law
,
neuer-ceasing
disquieters
of
his
studie
.
His
goods
distrained
,
and
his
cattle
driuen
off
his
ground
as
Iobs
was
.
His
deare
wise
beeing
not
so
well
able
to
beare
so
great
a
flood
as
he
,
euen
for
very
sorrowe
presently
died
.
A
lamentable
and
ruefull
case
.
So
many
children
to
hang
vpon
his
hand
,
for
which
he
had
neuer
maintenance
,
neither
yet
now
had
stay
,
his
wife
beeing
gone
.
Well
,
but
that
sorrowfull
time
was
blowne
ouer
.
He
was
appointed
to
be
one
of
the
chiefest
translatours
.
And
as
soone
as
it
was
knowne
how
far
in
this
trauaile
he
did
more
then
any
of
the
rest
,
he
was
very
well
prouided
for
in
respect
of
liuing
.
For
which
my
L.
his
Grace
of
Canterbury
now
liuing
,
is
much
to
be
reuerenced
and
honoured
.
But
being
so
well
to
passe
both
for
himselfe
and
for
his
children
,
sodainely
he
fell
sicke
.
He
was
taken
with
an
ague
&
a
squinsey
both
together
.
And
the
more
vsuall
that
was
,
the
lesse
dangerous
was
this
accompted
,
but
the
euent
shewes
the
contrary
.
For
the
squinsey
beeing
both
by
himselfe
and
his
friends
not
greatly
regarded
,
within
foure
dayes
tooke
away
his
life
.
These
were
many
waters
and
diuerse
tribulations
.
Besides
a
thousand
more
,
which
I
cannot
now
stand
to
repeate
.
Yet
he
carried
himselfe
so
in
life
and
death
,
as
these
waters
seemed
not
once
to
come
neere
him
.
He
was
professour
of
the
Hebrewe
tongue
in
this
Vniuersitie
thirty
yeares
.
(
As
his
father
in
law
D.
Larkyn
had
beene
professour
of
Phisick
fiue
or
sixe
and
thirty
yeares
.
)
Which
tongue
,
howsoeuer
some
account
of
it
,
yet
ought
to
be
preferred
before
all
the
rest
.
For
it
is
the
antienst
,
the
shortest
,
the
plainest
of
all
.
A
great
part
of
wisedome
,
In
Cratylo
.
as
Plato
sheweth
,
is
in
the
knowledge
of
true
Etymologies
.
These
in
other
tongues
are
vncertaine
,
in
this
taken
out
of
the
naturall
qualities
of
euery
thing
that
is
named
.
In
so
much
as
when
any
man
hath
found
the
Hebrewe
Etymologie
,
then
he
neede
seeke
no
further
.
Besides
,
all
the
Scripture
written
before
the
birth
of
Christ
,
except
a
fewe
chapters
of
Daniel
and
Ezra
,
were
written
in
Hebrewe
.
And
the
Rabbins
themselues
,
though
they
haue
no
small
number
of
fables
and
lies
in
them
,
yet
diuerse
things
they
haue
notwithstanding
fit
for
the
opening
of
the
olde
Testament
.
Therefore
though
a
man
cannot
reade
the
Rabbins
,
yet
vnlesse
he
can
vnderstand
handsomely
well
the
Hebrewe
text
,
he
is
compted
but
a
maimed
,
or
as
it
were
but
halfe
a
Diuine
,
especially
in
this
learned
age
.
Lastly
,
diuerse
learned
men
are
of
opinion
,
to
whom
I
very
willingly
assent
,
that
the
holy
tongue
which
was
spoken
in
paradise
,
shal
be
eternally
vsed
in
the
heauenly
paradise
,
where
the
Saints
shall
euer
extoll
and
praise
God
.
But
this
worthy
professour
deceased
,
got
him
great
credit
,
as
well
by
the
continuance
,
as
by
the
holinesse
of
his
profession
.
For
he
was
not
a
professour
for
one
or
two
yeares
,
as
others
are
,
but
full
thirtie
yeares
together
.
Nathan
Cytreus
writeth
,
In
Itinerario

pag
.
444.
that
in
Prage
an
Vniuersitie
of
Bohemia
,
where
Iohn
Hus
and
Hierome
of
Prage
professed
,
that
they
that
haue
continued
professours
for
the
space
of
twenty
yeares
together
,
are
created
Earles
and
Dukes
both
together
.
And
therefore
their
style
is
to
be
called
Illustres
,
whereas
they
which
are
singly
and
simply
but
onely
either
Earles
or
Dukes
,
are
called
Spectabiles
.
Neither
maketh
it
any
matter
that
they
haue
no
reuenewes
,
to
maintain
Earldomes
or
Dukedomes
.
For
they
haue
the
title
notwithstanding
euen
as
Suffragans
haue
of
Bishops
.
Our
good
brother
hauing
no
such
profit
or
dignitie
propounded
vnto
him
,
but
contenting
himselfe
with
his
stipend
,
spent
halfe
his
life
in
this
place
.
For
he
was
vpon
threescore
yeares
old
when
he
died
.
He
wrote
a
booke
of
Annotations
vpon
the
first
fiue
small
Prophets
,
dedicated
to
that
great
patron
of
learning
and
learned
men
,
Sir
Francis
Walsingham
.
Wherein
diuers
speeches
and
phrases
of
the
Prophets
are
compared
with
the
like
in
Poets
and
Oratours
both
Greeke
and
Latin
,
and
many
notes
neither
vnpleasant
nor
vnprofitable
to
be
read
,
are
fet
out
of
the
Rabbins
.
But
in
mine
opinion
he
tooke
greatest
pains
in
his
Chronologie
,
which
he
dedicated
to
Doctor
Iohn
Whitgift
the
reuerend
late
Archbishop
of
Canterbury
.
This
booke
indeede
is
full
of
hidden
learning
,
and
sheweth
infinite
reading
in
stories
.
I
asked
him
within
this
little
while
,
whether
he
had
written
no
more
bookes
.
He
tould
me
he
had
,
but
printed
no
more
,
because
he
had
no
time
to
peruse
and
perfect
them
for
other
busines
.
Now
by
busines
he
meant
,
I
weene
especially
his
studie
and
care
to
performe
well
his
taske
in
the
translation
.
Wherein
how
excellently
he
was
imployed
,
all
they
can
witnesse
who
were
ioyned
with
him
in
that
labour
.
For
though
they
be
the
very
flower
of
the
Vniuersitie
for
knowledge
of
the
tongues
,
yet
they
will
not
be
ashamed
to
confesse
,
that
no
one
man
of
their
companie
,
if
not
by
other
respects
,
yet
at
leastwise
for
long
experience
and
exercise
in
this
kind
,
was
to
be
compared
with
him
.
For
indeede
he
was
so
desirous
that
this
busines
begun
by
the
commandement
of
our
most
gratious
Soueraigne
King
Iames
,
should
be
brought
to
a
happie
ende
;
that
oftentimes
in
many
mens
hearings
,
he
protested
he
had
rather
die
,
then
be
any
way
negligent
herein
.
Which
as
some
thinke
by
all
likelihood
came
indeede
so
to
passe
.
To
wit
,
that
too
earnest
studie
and
paines
about
the
translation
,
hastened
his
death
,
and
brought
it
on
sooner
.
Now
as
he
liued
so
,
in
his
profession
,
in
his
writings
,
in
his
translating
,
as
though
all
the
floods
of
many
waters
had
neuer
comn
'
neare
him
:
euen
so
also
he
died
.
During
the
short
time
of
his
sicknes
,
he
caried
himselfe
,
as
alwaies
before
,
humbly
,
mildly
,
quietly
,
constantly
.
One
of
his
louing
friends
standing
by
his
bed
,
and
saying
;
M.
Liuely
,
I
pray
God
you
may
haue
patience
,
and
hope
,
and
especially
faith
vnto
the
ende
.
He
lifting
vp
his
hands
said
heartily
and
cheerefully
,
Amen
.
Little
he
vsed
to
speake
,
and
more
he
could
not
say
,
for
the
paine
and
impediment
of
his
squinsey
.
Which
though
it
made
a
speedie
end
of
him
,
as
the
apoplexie
did
of
the
good
Emperour
Valentinian
,
yet
how
could
any
death
be
sodaine
to
him
,
whose
whole
life
was
nothing
els
but
a
meditation
of
death
,
and
whome
the
Lord
whensoeuer
he
came
,
might
finde
doing
his
dutie
?
Wherefore
no
reason
we
should
lament
his
departure
out
of
this
world
.
He
liued
blessedly
,
he
died
blessedly
in
the
Lord
.
Rather
,
you
Reuerend
and
learned
Vniuersitie-men
,
lament
for
this
,
that
you
haue
lost
so
famous
a
Professour
,
and
so
worthy
a
writer
.
Lament
you
translatours
,
beeng
now
depriued
of
him
,
who
no
lesse
by
his
owne
merit
and
desert
,
then
by
the
priuiledge
of
his
place
,
was
to
order
and
ouersee
all
your
trauailes
.
Lament
you
poore
orphans
,
eleuen
poore
children
of
you
,
which
he
left
behind
him
,
as
Christ
ascending
left
eleuen
Disciples
,
bereaued
of
your
kinde
and
deare
Father
,
destitute
of
necessaries
for
your
maintenance
,
to
seeke
of
all
helpe
and
meanes
,
but
onely
(
as
poore
folkes
vse
to
speake
)
such
as
God
and
good
friends
shall
prouide
.
Lament
,
lament
all
of
you
,
of
the
towne
as
well
as
of
the
Vniuersitie
,
because
our
Schoole
hath
lost
such
a
singular
ornament
of
this
age
,
because
our
Churches
haue
lost
such
a
faithfull
and
syncere
seruant
of
Christ
.
Questionlesse
,
as
it
should
seeme
by
the
taking
away
of
this
man
,
almightie
God
is
greatly
angrie
with
vs
all
for
our
sinnes
.
Christ
Iesus
our
master
as
though
he
meant
no
more
to
care
for
vs
,
seemeth
to
lie
fast
asleepe
in
the
ship
,
while
we
most
miserably
in
the
flood
of
many
waters
are
turmoiled
&
tossed
.
Wherefore
let
vs
in
time
crie
aloud
,
and
awake
him
with
our
praiers
.
Or
rather
indeede
he
is
not
asleepe
,
but
awake
alreadie
.
We
haue
awaked
him
,
not
with
our
praiers
,
but
with
our
sinnes
.
Our
sinnes
haue
cried
vp
to
heauen
.
And
the
Lord
beeing
awaked
,
as
a
gyant
comes
forth
against
vs
,
&
as
a
mighty
man
refreshed
with
wine
.
For
not
onely
those
are
waters
which
are
in
the
chanell
,
or
in
the
sea
,
but
as
waters
are
here
vnderstood
,
euen
those
fires
are
waters
,
those
fires
I
say
,
which
very
lately
awaked
vs
at
midnight
,
and
affrighted
vs
at
none
day
:
which
raged
on
the
South
side
,
and
anon
after
on
the
North
side
of
the
towne
.
It
was
but
a
fewe
mens
losse
,
but
it
was
all
mens
warning
.
And
what
?
Shall
we
make
nothing
of
this
,
that
one
kind
of
disease
deuoureth
vp
the
townesmen
,
The
plague
,
the
small
pocks
,
and
the
squinsey
.
an
other
the
schollers
?
This
is
now
the
tenth
course
of
schollers
,
which
within
this
moneth
hath
beene
brought
forth
to
buriall
,
not
one
of
them
dying
of
the
plague
,
whereas
heretofore
if
one
or
two
schollers
haue
died
in
a
whole
yeare
out
of
all
Colledges
,
it
hath
beene
accompted
a
great
matter
.
This
and
such
like
grieuous
iudgements
,
beloued
,
doe
plainely
declare
,
that
the
Lord
beeing
awaked
with
the
cry
of
our
sinnes
,
is
grieuously
displeased
and
offended
at
vs.
Wherefore
let
vs
yet
now
at
the
length
in
the
name
of
God
,
rowse
vp
our selues
,
and
awake
out
of
our
deadly
sinnes
.
Let
this
that
our
holy
brother
did
so
sodainly
in
a
manner
,
fall
asleepe
,
be
a
loud
O
yes
,
as
it
were
to
awake
vs
all
.
Let
euery
one
of
vs
,
amend
one
,
iudge
one
,
accuse
one
,
condemne
one
,
that
we
be
not
all
condemned
of
the
lord
.
Let
euery
one
I
beseech
you
crie
vp
to
heauen
for
mercie
,
and
say
with
Dauid
,
2.
Sam
.
24.
I
haue
sinned
and
done
wickedly
.
Or
with
Ionas
;
Take
me
,
Ionas
1.12
.
for
I
knowe
that
for
my
sake
this
great
tempest
is
vpon
you
.
Then
our
most
mercifull
father
shal
blesse
vs
all
,
as
he
hath
done
this
holy
Saint
,
both
in
our
life
and
in
our
death
,
by
the
pardoning
of
our
offences
,
and
couering
all
our
sinnes
,
with
the
bowells
and
blood
of
Christ
.
And
though
in
this
world
we
be
euer
subiect
to
a
flood
of
many
waters
,
yet
he
shall
drawe
vs
still
out
of
many
waters
,
as
he
did
Moses
.
Surely
in
the
flood
of
many
waters
,
no
more
then
they
did
to
Ionas
,
they
shall
not
come
neere
vs.
Neither
onely
shall
we
be
safe
in
the
flood
of
death
,
but
also
in
the
flood
of
the
day
of
iudgement
.
For
that
also
is
a
flood
,
and
a
terrible
fearefull
one
too
.
To
wit
,
not
of
water
,
but
of
fire
.
As
it
was
in
the
dayes
of
Noah
:
so
shall
it
be
at
the
comming
of
the
sonne
of
man
.
In
the
first
flood
they
which
had
not
an
arke
,
ranne
vp
to
the
toppes
of
houses
,
to
the
tops
of
trees
,
to
the
toppes
of
mountaines
;
because
they
desired
to
hold
vp
their
heads
aboue
the
still
rising
raging
water
.
In
the
second
,
they
which
are
not
found
in
Christ
,
shall
say
to
the
mountaines
,
Fall
vpon
vs
:
and
to
the
caues
,
Couer
vs
and
hide
vs
from
the
wrath
of
the
Lambe
.
Then
they
shall
be
glad
to
creepe
into
euery
hole
and
corner
,
that
they
may
auoide
the
burning
of
fire
.
But
we
that
confesse
our
sinnes
,
and
forsake
the
same
,
shall
lift
our
heads
to
no
other
mountaine
,
but
to
Christ
from
whom
commeth
our
saluation
:
we
shall
desire
to
be
couered
with
no
other
rocke
,
but
onely
with
that
out
of
which
came
the
blood
and
water
of
life
.
For
neuer
did
Noahs
flood
so
cleane
wash
away
all
wicked
men
from
the
face
of
the
earth
,
as
the
blood
of
Christ
shall
purge
vs
from
all
our
sinnes
,
and
present
vs
blamelesse
before
the
face
of
our
Father
,
onely
if
we
be
faithful
vnto
death
.
For
then
the
next
thing
is
felicitie
,
and
the
crowne
of
life
.
Which
God
for
his
mercie
sake
grant
vs
all
,
that
as
we
make
no
doubt
,
but
this
our
holy
brother
now
triumpheth
with
Christ
,
so
all
and
euery
one
of
vs
after
we
haue
waded
through
this
world
as
a
flood
of
many
waters
,
may
inherit
that
kingdome
of
glory
,
which
our
louing
Lord
Iesus
hath
purchased
for
vs
with
his
deare
blood
:
to
whom
with
the
Father
and
the
Holy
Ghost
be
all
honour
and
glorie
,
now
and
euermore
:
Amen
.
