verse

22.
The
stone
which
the
Builders
refused
,
is
the
head
of
the
Corner
:
For
the
more
liuely
describing
,
and
full
expressing
whereof
,
we
see
,
they
vse
a
metaphor
comparing
the
commune
wealth
vnto
a
building
:
the
subiectes
vnto
stones
therein
:
the
Princes
and
rulers
vnto
the
builders
thereof
:
the
King
vnto
the
head
Corner
stone
of
the
same
:
For
albeit
that
these
woordes
be
referred
vnto
Christ
:
of
whom
Dauid
was
a
Type
and
figure
,
and
therefore
are
so
vsed
by
Christ
.
Math.

And
by
First
concerning
the
fit
vse
of
this
Metaphor
,
it
is
apparant
by
the
partituler
examination
of
the
seuerall
parts
thereof
.
For
euerie
Common-wealth
is
as
a
building
consisting
of
many
parts
,
which
being
coupled
together
in
one
according
vnto
art
,
make
one
house
:
of
this
house
first
euery
subiect
is
a
stone
seruing
in
one
place
or
other
,
and
to
one
vse
or
other
in
the
building
,
whereby
as
wee
learne
how
perillous
in
each
common
wealth
contention
is
betweene
the
subiects
of
the
same
:
that
it
is
euen
such
as
if
the
stones
of
one
building
should
forsake
their
places
&
refuse
their
offices
in
keeping
in
and
supporting
of
one
another
,
&
should
deuide
themselues
the
one
against
the
other
,
to
the
beating
out
and
breaking
of
each
other
:
wherby
it
must
needes
come
to
passe
,
that
the
house
,
yea
bee
it
neuer
so
goodly
and
stately
,
neuer
so
firme
and
strong
,
must
haue
a
downfall
,
and
come
to
destruction
:
for
a
house
deuided
against
it selfe
can
not
stand
,
as
it
is
written
Mat.
12.
So
hereout
wee
are
taught
,
with
what
carefulnes
euery
one
of
vs
,
of
what
estate
and
condition
,
of
what
vocation
and
calling
soeuer
wee
are
,
ought
to
procure
according
to
the
same
,
the
benefite
of
the
Common
wealth
,
whereof
we
are
subiects
,
in
that
we
are
borne
to
be
stones
in
this
building
for
the
benefite
of
the
same
:
Which
Tully
an
heathen
oratour

So
are
all
the
Iudic.

Thus
And
now
secondly
followeth
the
application
of
the
same
vnto
the
purpose
and
meaning
of
the
people
,
which
was
thereby
to
expresse
the
more
fully
and
manifestly
the
aduauncement
of
Dauid
to
the
kingdome
:
For
this
is
the
profitable
vse
of
Metaphors
,
&
Allegories
,
parables
or
similitudes
,
liuely
to
describe
those
thinges
,
which
otherwise
could
not
so
fully
be
expressed
.
Wherein
First
,
they
begin
with
his
reiection
,
by
the
builders
:
Secondly
,
come
to
his
exaltation
afterwardes
.
First
they
begin
with
his
reiection
,
that
his
exaltation
might
appeare
the
more
glorious
:
for
the
lower
the
abbasing
is
,
the
more
notable
is
the
lifting
vp
:
the
greater
the
daunger
is
,
the
more
woorthy
is
the
victory
.
The
stone
which
the
builders
refused
.
Lo
this
is
the
reiection
of
Dauid
.
Dauid
was
a
stone
of
the
house
of
Israell
,
a
subiect
of
that
Common
wealth
:
and
albeit
,
by
byrth
hee
was
not
great
,
the
sonne
of
Ishai
,
a
meane
Israelite
:
yet
in
respect
of
his
noble
actes
,
hee
was
a
most
pretious
stone
,
and
a
principall
vpholder
of
the
glory
of
the
same
,
as
amongst
other
thinges
most
euidently
appeareth
1.
Samuel
17.
in
his
encountring
This
stone
the
builders
refused
:
They
which
should
haue
aduaunced
him
,
reiected
him
:
yea
so
reiected
him
,
as
that
they
did
not
onely
esteeme
him
vnwoorthy
to
bee
the
chiefe
stone
of
the
Corner
,
but
also
to
bee
euen
an
inferiour
stone
in
the
building
,
for
they
would
cleane
haue
taken
him
away
from
the
house
of
Israell
:
whereunto
tended
all
those
tyrannous
persecutions
practised
against
him
,
whereof
wee
read
aboundantly
in
the
first
booke
of
Samuel
.
Wel
,
thus
wee
sée
the
reiection
of
this
Stone
by
the
builders
.
Now
followeth
his
exaltation
.
The
same
is
the
head
of
the
Corner
:
although
the
builders
refused
this
stone
,
yet
the
Lord
had
chosen
it
,
yea
&
although
they
had
reiected
it
,
yet
the
Lord
had
taken
it
vp
,
and
exalted
it
:
and
that
not
onely
to
bee
a
meane
stone
in
the
building
,
but
euen
to
bee
the
head
in
the
Corner
of
the
same
:
that
is
,
not
onely
to
be
a
fellow
subiect
amongst
them
in
the
common
wealth
,
but
euen
to
be
king
ouer
them
in
the
gouernment
of
the
same
.
Wherby
first
we
learn
that
as
those
things
which
are
highly
esteemed
before
men
,
are
many
tymes
abomination
in
the
sight
of
God
,
Luc.

so
that
on
the
other
who
shal
resist
his
wil
?

For
the
I
am
not
come
at
this
time
into
this
place
,
worshipfull
and
beloued
,
historically
to
shew
vnto
you
what
hath
of
old
come
to
passe
vnto
Dauid
of
Israel
:
but
chiefly
,
in
consideration
of
the
daie
,
by
way
of
application
to
put
you
in
minde
,
what
hath
béen
in
your
own
daies
done
vnto
Elizabeth
of
England
.
The
stone
which
the
Builders
refused
,
is
the
head
of
the
Corner
.
Elizabeth
that
pretious
stone
of
the
house
of
England
refused
:
by
whom
?
by
the
builders
therof
:
but
what
is
the
euent
?
the
same
is
the
head
of
the
corner
.
Elizabeth
refused
,
by
what
meanes
?
Elizabeth
a
stone
of
the
house
of
England
,
not
of
any
straunge
countrey
or
forraine
nation
,
and
therefore
not
vnfit
:
yet
had
they
refused
her
:
yea
Elizabeth
a
stone
not
of
the
baser
,
but
of
the
most
pretious
sorte
a
stone
of
the
head
corner
stone
,
proceeding
from
the
loines
of
the
kings
of
this
land
:
yet
had
they
refused
her
:
yea
Elizabeth
a
stone
not
ragged
but
euerie
way
squared
,
not
by
the
hand
of
man
but
by
the
finger
of
God
,
fit
for
the
place
and
purpose
,
and
yet
had
they
refused
her
.
And
by
whome
was
she
refused
?
euen
by
those
which
were
chosen
to
be
the
builders
of
the
house
of
this
common
wealth
:
these
were
the
Councellers
&
Nobilitie
of
this
Realme
,
in
the
dayes
of
Queene
Mary
her
sister
,
who
albeit
they
were
the
sworne
assisters
of
the
rightfull
heire
apparant
to
the
Crown
of
this
land
:
yea
,
and
albeit
they
knews
by
succession
to
be
heires
,
and
that
not
by
extraordinarie
annoynting
as
the
kingdome
of
Israel
came
to
Dauid
,
but
by
naturall
discent
from
her
Father
,
and
confirmed
by
the
last
will
and
testament
of
her
Father
of
famous
memorie
king
Henrie
the
eight
,
yet
contrarie
to
law
,
contrarie
to
their
oth
,
and
contrarie
vnto
conscience
they
refused
her
:
and
what
waies
and
meanes
they
deuised
and
put
in
practise
not
onely
to
depriue
her
of
the
Crown
,
but
also
of
her
head
whereon
the
Crown
should
stand
,
as
the
historie
therof
in
the
booke
of
the
acts
&
monuments
of
the
Church
recorded
expresseth
it
,
&
many
of
you
yet
sufficiently
remember
it
:
so
it
should
be
néedlesse
for
me
now
to
spend
any
time
in
the
deliuering
of
it
.
Onely
therefore
this
I
say
(
which
boldly
I
may
say
)
that
neuer
did
Saule
&
his
coherents
séeke
more
waies
to
destroy
Dauid
,
then
they
sought
to
destroy
her
:
neither
was
Dauid
at
any
time
in
greater
daunger
of
death
being
persecuted
by
Saul
,
nor
Peter
in
greater
perril
of
beheading
being
fast
bound
in
the
prison
by
Herod
,
Act.

The
same
is
the
head
of
the
Corner
:
notwithstanding
all
this
,
her
enemies
had
no
power
ouer
her
,
they
preuailed
not
in
their
purposes
,
but
were
confounded
in
their
deuises
:
as
for
Elizabeth
,
she
is
aduanced
to
the
kingdome
,
she
sitteth
in
the
throne
,
she
weareth
the
Crowne
,
shée
beareth
the
Scepter
.
The
stone
which
the
builders
refused
,
is
the
head
of
the
Corner
:
and
thus
much
concerning
the
aduancement
of
Dauid
.
2.
How
it
came
to
passe
.
Now
the
people
expresse
how
it
came
to
passe
that
Dauid
was
aduanced
to
the
kingdome
:
how
this
stone
being
refused
by
the
builders
,
became
notwithstanding
the
head
of
the
Corner

This
was
the
Lords
dooing
,
and
it
is
merueilous
in
our
eies
.
Where
they
first
attribute
their
working
thereof
onely
to
the
Lord
.
Secondly
,
they
confirme
it
by
the
merueilousnes
thereof
in
their
eies
.
First
they
attribute
the
aduancement
of
Dauid
to
the
onely
working
of
the
Lord.
It
is
the
first
doing
and
right
dutifully
:
for
it
is
the
Lord
which
hath
all
things
vnder
his
gouernment
and
direction
:
neither
is
there
any
thing
done
which
the
Lord
hath
not
done
:
the
least
things
of
this
world
which
we
sée
done
,
are
the
Lords
doing
:
the
holding
foorth
of
our
armes
,
the
opening
of
our
lippes
,
the
lifting
vp
of
our
eies
,
nay
the
fall
of
the
Sparrow
,
nay
the
fall
of
the
leafe
:
or
if
there
be
any
thing
lesse
then
the
least
of
these
,
it
is
the
Lords
dooing
,
and
therfore
how
much
more
the
things
which
are
greatest
?
Againe
in
the
placing
and
disposing
of
the
members
of
the
bodie
of
man
,
that
one
member
is
lower
or
higher
then
another
,
that
the
head
is
highest
and
the
foote
lowest
,
it
is
the
Lords
dooing
.
Againe
amongst
those
Celestiall
bodies
,
that
the
Sunne
is
placed
aboue
Moone
and
Stars
;
or
(
to
vse
the
words
of
the
Apostle
.
1.
Cor:
15.
)
that
there
is
Secondly
that
it
was
the
Lords
dooing
,
they
proue
by
the
marueilousnes
therof
.
And
it
is
meruelous
in
our
eies
.
As
if
they
had
said
:
Dauid
is
aduanced
to
the
kingdome
,
but
without
the
helpe
,
yea
beyond
the
expectation
,
yea
aboue
the
reason
and
vnderstanding
of
man
,
yea
in
so
strange
a
maner
,
as
that
in
our
eies
it
is
a
thing
most
merueilous
:
and
therefore
surely
it
is
the
Lordes
dooing
.
And
was
it
not
a
straunge
thing
&
woorthie
to
be
merueiled
at
,
that
Dauid
a
man
of
a
meane
parentage
in
the
common
wealth
of
Israell
,
the
youngest
of
all
his
brethren
,
and
one
fetched
from
the
shéepefold
,
should
be
annointed
to
be
king
?
yea
&
notwithstanding
hee
found
so
many
enemies
,
and
so
few
friends
;
so
many
perils
,
and
so
small
safetie
;
being
a
man
reiected
and
persecuted
by
Saul
and
his
princes
,
yea
being
a
man
despised
and
scorned
of
the
people
,
as
he
himselfe
speaketh
:
Psal.
22.
Should
(
Saul
This
therefore
was
the
Lords
doing
,
and
it
is
merueilous
in
our
eies
.
And
no
lesse
merueilous
,
(
if
we
consider
it
)
was
the
aduancement
of
Quéen
Elizabeth
to
the
Crowne
of
this
Realme
:
for
what
though
the
kingdome
successiuely
by
right
appertained
vnto
her
?
yet
if
we
consider
the
multitude
and
mightinesse
of
her
enemies
that
withstood
her
:
the
infinite
number
of
their
subtile
and
deuilish
deuises
and
practises
to
destroy
her
:
again
if
we
consider
the
smal
number
of
her
able
friends
to
defend
her
,
and
her
lesse
abilitie
to
defend
her selfe
:
being
a
mayden
virgine
,
and
therefore
vnmeete
:
vnarmed
,
and
therefore
vnfit
to
resist
:
againe
being
fast
shut
within
the
stone
walles
of
strong
holdes
,
and
therefore
not
able
to
fly
,
but
enforced
to
aduenture
the
extremitie
of
those
dangers
which
by
her
bloudie
enemies
were
daily
threatned
against
her
,
and
prepared
for
her
:
againe
on
the
other
side
,
if
wée
consider
how
sodenly
and
wonderfully
the
chiefest
of
her
enemies
,
when
shée
was
in
chiefest
danger
of
death
,
and
in
the
iudgement
of
man
in
desperate
estate
of
life
,
were
brought
to
destruction
:
wherby
(
Quéene
Mary
being
dead
)
she
was
aduanced
to
the
Crowne
:
I
say
if
we
throughly
consider
these
things
,
and
accordingly
waigh
them
in
the
true
ballances
of
an
vpright
mind
,
we
shall
find
the
aduancement
of
Quéene
Elizabeth
,
a
thing
most
marueilous
in
our
eyes
:
yea
and
the
more
we
consider
it
,
the
more
marueilous
we
shall
find
it
:
yea
&
I
assure
my selfe
,
&
you
(
dearely
beloued
)
that
of
all
those
marueilous
works
which
through
the
mighty
hand
&
outstretched
arme
of
the
Lord
,
we
haue
either
with
our
eyes
séene
in
our
daies
,
or
els
with
our
eares
heard
in
the
daies
of
our
fathers
to
haue
come
to
passe
,
this
one
is
the
greatest
&
the
most
merueilous
in
the
eyes
of
all
those
which
throughly
and
vprightly
consider
it
,
euen
this
,
the
aduancement
of
Quéene
Elizabeth
to
the
Crowne
of
this
land
:
It
was
maruailous
in
the
eyes
of
her
verie
enimies
,
who
were
amased
at
the
sight
of
it
,
and
whose
hearts
are
yet
astonished
at
the
remembrance
of
it
:
if
therefore
it
séeme
not
marueilous
in
the
eyes
of
any
,
it
is
in
the
eyes
of
those
which
consider
it
not
.
Wherefore
if
we
are
not
too
sottish
,
we
can
not
but
sée
,
and
too
malicious
,
we
can
not
but
acknowledge
that
it
is
the
Lords
doing
,
and
not
mans
:
that
it
is
the
Lord
which
hath
pleaded
her
cause
,
and
reuenged
her
wrong
,
and
that
he
onely
which
is
mightie
and
almightie
hath
magnified
her
,
saying
:
It
is
the
Lords
doing
,
and
it
is
marueilous
in
our
eyes
.

This
is
the

which

For

vnto
a

for
otherwise
there
is
no

of

This
daye

Now
as
this
people
speaking
of
the
day
of
the
aduancement
of
Dauid
to
the
kingdom
of
Iudah
,
acknowledge
the
same
to
bee
a
speciall
day
wherin
the
Lord
had
shewed
mercy
vnto
them
,
in
pouring
out
his
blessings
vpon
them
:
so
likewise
haue
we
(
dearely
beloued
)
the
people
of
this
lande
as
great
cause
vpon
the
consideration
of
the
aduancement
of
Quéene
Elizabeth
to
the
Throne
therof
,
to
acknowledge
the
day
thereof
,
a
special
day
ordained
of
the
Lord
our
God
for
the
singuler
benefit
of
the
same
:
saying
with
this
people
,
This
is
the
day
which
the
Lord
hath
made
.
I
might
expresse
the
blessed
estate
of
this
land
,
by
conferring
the
same
vnder
her
maiesties
gouernment
,
with
the
estate
of
Iudah
&
Israel
,
vnder
the
gouernment
of
Dauid
,
of
olde
:
or
I
might
expresse
it
by
conferring
the
estate
therof
with
the
estate
of
other
nations
round
about
vs
,
&
bordering
vpon
vs
at
this
day
,
either
of
which
might
easily
proue
it
vnto
vs
:
but
that
I
might
not
séeme
nimis
curiosus
in
aliena
Republica
,
I
will
make
it
manifest
by
conferring
it
with
it selfe
.
The
estate
of
it
now
with
the
estate
of
it
in
times
past
:
neither
do
I
meane
to
this
end
,
to
call
backe
the
consideration
of
the
estate
thereof
in
the
dayes
of
her
Progenitors
whom
we
knew
not
:
but
onely
to
examine
it
,
by
conferring
the
estate
thereof
now
with
the
estate
of
the
same
in
the
dayes
of
Quéene
Mary
her
sister
,
whom
as
you
,
for
the
most
part
know
,
so
what
the
estate
of
the
Common
wealth
was
vnder
her
,
you
for
the
most
part
can
not
but
remember
:
that
hauing
conferred
things
together
which
you
haue
known
,
and
had
full
experience
of
,
you
might
the
better
iudge
betwéen
the
one
and
the
other
:
here
therefore
if
we
consider
how
it
was
gouerned
&
left
by
the
one
,
and
how
it
hath
béene
maintained
&
gouerned
by
the
other
,
the
benefit
of
this
day
of
the
aduancement
of
Quéen
Elizabeth
to
the
Crowne
of
this
land
,
shall
most
clearely
shine
,
&
fully
be
confirmed
vnto
vs
.
Quéene
Mary
left
it
vexed
with
the
insolency
of
the
Spanish
nation
whom
she
brought
in
.
Quéene
Elizabeth
hath
eased
it
,
Mary
left
it
in
warre
,
Elizabeth
hath
gouerned
it
in
peace
:
Mary
left
it
in
debt
,
Elizabeth
hath
discharged
it
:
Mary
left
it
in
pouertie
,
Elizabeth
hath
enriched
it
:
Mary
left
it
weake
,
Elizabeth
hath
strengthned
it
:
nay
further
,
(
wherein
the
perfection
of
our
present
happines
consisteth
)
Mary
banished
true
religion
,
Elizabeth
hath
restored
it
:
Mary
persecuted
it
,
Elizabeth
hath
defended
it
:
Mary
cast
it
downe
,
Elizabeth
hath
aduanced
it
.
Mary
with
the
intollerable
superstitions
of
Antechrist
,
defiled
it
,
Elizabeth
by
casting
them
out
,
hath
purged
it
:
so
that
now
with
liberty
of
body
we
enioy
fréedome
of
conscience
,
in
stead
of
being
strangers
in
other
lands
,
our
land
is
become
a
safe
receptance
for
the
godly
persecuted
of
other
nations
:
as
in
worldly
,
so
in
all
spirituall
blessings
we
are
wonderfully
enriched
:
briefely
,
we
all
of
vs
more
fully
féele
the
blessednes
of
our
estate
,
then
any
tongue
,
much
lesse
mine
,
is
able
to
expresse
.
If
therefore
the
Lord
euer
made
any
day
for
the
benefit
of
Israel
,
yea
or
any
day
for
the
benefit
of
any
nation
vnder
the
heauens
,
then
euen
this
day
of
the
aduancement
of
Quéene
Elizabeth
to
the
kingdom
of
England
hath
the
Lord
made
for
the
vnspeakable
happines
of
the
same
.
Happy
did
England
thinke
it selfe
in
the
dayes
of
King
Henry
hir
noble
father
:
happy
did
it
think
it selfe
in
the
dayes
of
king
Edward
her
godly
brother
:
but
yet
neuer
could
it
repute
it selfe
so
happy
,
as
it
hath
bene
during
the
raigne
of
victorious
Queene
Elyzabeth
:
so
vnspeakable
an
happy
day
was
this
,
of
the
aduauncement
of
Queene
Elizabeth
:
and
therefore
how
shal
we
but
acknowledge
this
day
made
&
appointed
of
the
Lord
our
God
for
the
happines
of
England
?
surely
neuer
did
the
Lord
make
any
such
day
before
it
,
neither
will
he
euer
make
any
such
day
after
for
the
happines
of
England
.
The
Lord
therefore
vouchsafe
to
lengthen
this
day
,
not
onely
as
the
day
of
Iosuah
,
but
euen
as
the
daies
of
Heauen
and
Earth
.
And
thus
much
concerning
the
first
part
,
containing
the
declaration
of
the
woonderfull
and
happy
aduauncement
of
Dauid
to
the
kingdome
.
The
second
part
.
The
louing
and
dutifull
behauiour
of

Let

Albeit
,
that
so
great
happines
came
to
that
common
wealth
,
by
the
aduauncement
of
Dauid
to
the
kingdome
:
yet
notwithstanding
all
reioyced

not
thereat

neither
were
glad
thereof

but

of
the
foolish
people
which

not
what
was
good
for

inwardly

greeued
thereat

yea
and
many

to

many

the
aduauncement

Dauid

yea

what
though
rebellious
Abner

his
confederats

storme
thereat

and
by
the
aduauncement
of

to

crowne
of

do
not
onely
labour
to
keepe
him
backe
from
the
Crowne
of
Israell
,
which
yet
hee
hath
not
,
but
also
to
depose

from

,
which
hee
now
enioyeth

yet
as
for

In

sort

notwithstanding
the
great
and
vnspeakable
happines
of
this
Common
wealth
by
the
aduauncenent

Elizabeth
to
the

thereof

yet
all
reioyced
not
thereat

neither

bene
glad
thereof
:
but
many
no
doubt
of
the
foolish
&
superstitious
people
haue
greeued
at
it
:
yea
and
many
rebellious
ones
,
we
know
by
insurrections
openly
,
and
by
conspiracies
secretly
,
haue
laboured
what
in
them
lay
,
&
haue
aduentured
there
liues
to
depriue
her
of
it
,
but
yet
notwithstanding
(
dearly
beloued
)
as
for
vs

let
not
their
foolishnes
besotte
vs
,
but
let
vs
reioice
,
and
bee
glad
thereof

yea
euen
so
many
of

which
I
hope
is
all
of

as

loue
to
the
present
prosperity
of

concerning

that
is
in

Whereby
we

obserued

kept
the
day

of

In
it
.
If
euer
the
people
of
Israell
had
any
iust
cause
to
obserue
with
reioycing
any
day
in
remembrance
ether
of
any
euill
auoided
,
or
of
any
benefite
receiued
at
the
handes
of
the
Lord
:
yea
,
or
if
any
people
vnder
the
heauens
hath
had
at
any
time
iust
occasion
to
do
the
same
:
surely
then
haue
wee
euen
the
people
of
this
Common
wealth
,
as
great
cause
as
they
that
haue
had
the
greatest
,
whether
in

of
the
one
,
or
in
respect
of
the

,
solemnely
with
reioycing
to
obserue
this
day
,
wherein
wee
now
breath
,
the
17.
of
Nouember
:
which
is
the
day
of
the
memorial
of
the
beginning
of
the
happy
raigne
of
our
most
gracious
soueraigne
Queene
Elizabeth
ouer
this
land
:
for
on
this
day
,
now
29.
yeares
it
was
,
that
the
Lord
in
mercy
remembring
vs
when
we
litle
hoped
,
and
lesse
deserued
,
by
taking
away
of
Queene
Mary
,
aduaunced
Queene
Elizabeth
ouer
vs
:
whereby
what
plagues
wee
were
deliuered
from
,
and
what
blessednes
wee
reaped
,
you
heard
before
in
part
,
but
can
not
fully
bee
expressed
:
wherefore
now
in
this
day
let
vs
reioyce
and
be
glad
,
yea
,
and
although
euery
day
ought
to
be
vnto
vs
a
day
of
reioicing
therat
:
yet
principally
we
ought
to
reioyce
in
this
day
.
How
can
wee
but
euery
day
reioyce
thereat
,
when
as
euery
day
wee
reape
the
benefite
thereof
?
There
doth
not
one
day
throughout
the
yeare
,
nay
throughout
the
whole
course
of
our
liues
,
passe
ouer
our
heads
,
but
that
therein
euery
one
of
vs
,
high
and
low
,
rich
and
poore
,
young
and
old
,
do
many
wayes
both
see
in
others
,
and
feele
in
our selues
the
vnspeakable
benefits
of
the
aduauncement
of
Queene
Elizabeth
:
and
therefore
euery
day
ought
to
be
vnto
vs
a
day
of
reioycing
:
euery
day
haue
wee
iust
cause
to
fall
downe
on
our
knees
,
and
geue
God
thankes
for
Elizabeth
:
but
yet
principally
wee
ought
to
reioyce
in
this
day
,
which
now
wee
solemnly
obserue
in
memoriall
thereof
,
for
that
this
is
the
end
wherfore
all
such
solemne
obseruation
of
special
dayes
for
special
benefites
haue
bene
ordayned
and
vsed
:
euen
that
they
should
be
bestowed
in
reioycing
:
not
in
fasting
:
but
in
feasting
,
not
in
weeping
,
but
in
reioycing
:
wherfore
principally
in
this
day
we
ought
to
reioyce
for
that
aduauncement
of
Queene
Elizabeth
.
Therefore
,
Let
vs
reioice
and
be
glad
in
it
.
Let
not
our
so
long
enioying
of
her
,
slacke
our
ioy
,
or
quaile
our
reioucing
for
her
:
but
rather
as
the
longer
wee
enioy
her
,
the
more
wee
are
blessed
by
her
:
so
haue
wee
euery
yeare
renuing
of
this
day
,
the
greater
cause
to
reioyce
for
her
,
and
therefore
euen
in
this
day
let
vs
reioyce
and
bee
glad
thereof
:
yea
euery
way
let
vs
testify
vnto
the
whole
world
this
our
reioycing
:
let
the
cherefulnes
of
our
countenances
,
the
decency
of
our
garmentes
,
the
songs
of
our
lippes
,
the
clapping
of
our
hands
,
our
melody
on
instruments
of
musicke
,
the
making
of
bonefires
,
the
ringing
of
belles
,
the
sounding
of

,
the
displaying

the
shooting

yea
,
and
whatsoeuer
meanes
haue
bene
vsed

bee
deuised

let

be

testimony
of
our
vnfayned
and
harty
reioycing
this
day
,
for
the
aduauncement
of
Queene

.
Thirdly
concerning
the
maner
of
this
our
reioycing
,
it
must
also
bee
obserued
:
for
there
is
areioycing
which
is
euil
,
as
the
Apostle
speaketh

The

Non

could
not
without
the
helpe
of
the
Lord
obtaine
the
kingdome
:
so
nether
could
he
without
the
helpe
of
the
Lord
defend
himselfe
and
gouerne
it
:
and
therefore
as
they
saw
iust
occasion
to
reioyce
in
him
for
the
one
,
so
they
saw
as
iust
occasion
to
pray
vnto
him
for
the
other
,
saying
verse
.
25.
O
Lord
I
pray
thee
saue
now
:
O
Lord
I
pray
thee
now
geue
prosperitie
.
Where
wee
say
they
pray
for
two
thinges
in
the
behalfe
of
Dauid
the
King
:
first
Saluation
,
secondly
Prosperity
.
First
they
pray
for
Saluation
.
O
Lord
I
pray
thee
saue
now
,
that
is
,
from
the
hand
of
the
enemy
which
laboureth
to
supplant
him
:
In
the
time
of
mirth
they
remembred
eminent
daungers
,
they
thought
of
perils
at
hand
:
which
the
Preacher
Cap.
11.
exhorteth
O
Lord
I
pray
thee
saue
now
:
For
what
was
Dauid
against
his
aduersaries
?
either
in
multitude
or
mightines
?
wherefore
they
flye
vnto
the
Lord
for
refuge
and
defence
:
saue
now
,
O
Lord
,
euen
thyne
annoynted
whom
thou
hast
aduaunced
from
the
handes
of
his
enemies
,
which
purpose
and
practise
his
destruction
.
Secondly
,
they
pray
for
the
prosperity
of
their
king
:
O
Lord
I
pray
thee
now
geue
prosperity
:
as
Dauid
could
not
saue
himselfe
from
the
hands
of
his
enemies
,
except
the
Lord
saued
him
:
so
neither
could
hee
gouerne
the
common
wealth
,
except
the
Lord
prospered
him
therin
:
It
is
no
easy
thing
to
gouerne
a
kingdome
:
&
to
order
a
common
wealth
,
for
the
welfare
&
happines
of
the
people
:
if
the
Lord
teach
not
the
king
what
to
doo
,
by
whom
shal
he
be
directed
?
If
the
Lord
direct
him
not
,
how
can
he
prosper
in
any
thing
which
he
taketh
in
hand
?
how
shal
he
prosper
in
his
counsails
?
how
shal
he
prosper
in
his
enterprises
?
If
the
Lord
build
not
the
house
,
in
vaine
do
they
labour
that
build
it
.
Psal.
127.
They
euen
O
Lord
I
pray
thee
,
&c.
First
for
her
safety
,
and
that
from
the
handes
of
her
enemies
:
for
albeit
that
she
is
aduaunced
to
the
throne
of
the
kingdome
,
yet
hath
shée
not
bene
neither
is
shee
frée
from
her
manifold
perils
:
first
by
her
rebellious
subiectes
within
,
who
for
the
aduauncement
of
an
Ishbosheth
,
nay
of
a
Iezabell
to
the
Crowne
,
both
by
open
insurrections
,
leuying
of
armies
,
displaying
of
Banners
,
and
pitching
of
fieldes
:
and
also
by
secret
conspiracies
,
with
dagges
and
daggers
,
&c.
haue
practised
her
destruction
:
then
by
forraine
enemies
of
other
nations
:
for
we
are
not
ignorant
of
the
often
thretned
inuasions
in
times
past
:
neither
can
we
be
ignorant
of
the
purposed
&
prepared
mischiefe
at
this
present
to
depose
her
from
the
Crown
.
Wherefore
,
O
Lord
I
pray
thee
saue
now
,
euen
thyne
annoynted
:
thou
which
hast
lifted
her
vp
,
hold
her
vp
,
that
thine
and
her
enemies
plucke
not
her
downe
whom
thou
hast
exalted
:
continue
thy
wonted
goodnes
towardes
her
,
as
thou
hast
hetherto
saued
her
,
so
saue
her
now
:
make
perfect
that
same
good
woorke
which
thou
hast
begunne
in
her
:
yea
,
Now
,
O
Lord
saue
her
:
for
now
is
the
wrathful
indignation
of
thine
and
her
enemies
,
as
a
consuming
fire
enflamed
against
her
:
wherefore
,
O
Lord
,
saue
now
,
yea
and
saue
her
for
euer
.
Hereunto
wee
must
ioyne
prayer
for
her
prosperity
.
O
Lord
I
pray
thee
now
geue
prosperity
vnto
Elizabeth
,
béeing
safely
couched
vnder
the
shadow
of
thy
winges
,
prosper
thou
her
,
O
Lord
,
prosper
thou
the
counsailes
of
her
hart
,
prosper
thou
the
woorks
of
her
hands
:
yea
O
Lord
,
whatsoeuer
shee
taketh
in
hand
,
let
it
prosper
in
thy
sight
:
yea
and
so
prosper
her
,
O
Lord
,
in
the
gouernment
of
vs
thy
people
committed
vnto
her
charge
,
as
that
we
also
may
prosper
vnder
her
:
and
that
as
in
all
worldly
prosperity
,
so
principally
in
all
godlines
and
honesty
:
yea
Now
,
O
Lord
,
geue
prosperity
vnto
her
,
as
thou
hast
hetherto
prospered
her
gouernment
aboue
al
other
Kinges
and
Princes
of
the
earth
,
to
the
terror
of
thy
enemies
,
to
the
comfort
of
thy
chosen
,
to
the
admiration
of
all
men
:
so
,
O
Lord
,
geue
now
,
yea
and
euer
prosperity
vnto
Elizabeth
.
Thus
ought
we
(
dearly
beloued
)
in
the
middest
of
our
reioycing
to
mixe
prayer
vnto
God
for
the
safety
and
prosperity
of
Queen
Elizabeth
:
great
is
the
force
of
prayer
before
God
:
it
pearceth
the
clowds
,
and
assendeth
into
the
eares
of
the
Almighty
:
and
although
the
Lord
heareth
not
sinners
,
Iohn
.

But
their
O
Lord
,
I
pray
thee
,
saue
now
.
O
Lord
I
pray
thee
now
geue
prosperity
vnto
Elizabeth
:
For
as
this
is
the
duty
of
all
men
one
towards
another
,
but
principally
of
subiects
towards
their
Kinges
and
Princes
,
to
commend
them
in
their
prayers
vnto
God
.

O
Lord
,
I
pray
thee
saue
now
:
O
Lord
,
I
pray
thee
geue
now
prosperity
vnto
Elizabeth
:
and
let
all
those
which
entirely
loue
Elizabeth
,
say
,
So
be
it

A
blessing
,
verse
.
26.
Blessed
is
he
that
commeth
in
the
name
of
the
Lord
:
we
haue
blessed
you
out
of
the
house
of
the
Lord
.
Which
words
,
the
most
vsuall
translations
do
set
downe
after
the
forme
and
maner
of
wishing
or
desiring
.
Blessed
be
hee
,
&c.
As
if
the
people
had
prayed
vnto
the
Lord
to
blesse
Dauid
their
King
.
But
the
most
approued
translation
according
to
the
Hebrew
set
them
downe
by
way
of
affirmation
,
Blessed
is
hee
,
&c.
Wherin
the
people
do
affirme
Dauid
their
King
to
bee
the
blessed
of
the
Lord.
Blessed
is
Dauid
.
the
which
they
confirme
by
two
notable
arguments
.
First
Dauid
commeth
in
the
name
of
the
Lord
,
that
is
,
Dauid
commeth
to
rule
and
gouerne
the
common-wealth
.
Hee
obtaineth
the
Kingdome
,
not
in
his
owne
name
,
but
in
the
name
of
the
Lord
:
not
thrusting
himself
thereunto
,
but
hauing
the
same
thrust
vpon
him
by
the
Lord
:
not
vsurpingly
aduauncing
himselfe
,
but
beeing
miraculously
thereunto
aduaunced
by
the
Lord
:
and
therefore
Dauid
is
blessed
:
for
as
they
which
come
in
their
owne
names
are
cursed
:
so
they
which
come
in
the
name
of
the
Lord
are
blessed
:
but
Dauid
commeth
in
the
name
of
the
Lord
,
therfore
Dauid
is
blessed
.
Secondly
Dauid
is
blessed
of
them
that
are
of
the
house
of
the
Lord
:
that
is
,
either
of
the
priests
of
the
Lordes
house
,
of
his
Sanctuary
,
whose
office
it
was
to
blesse
,
as
appeareth
Num.
6.
and
also
Deut.
10.
or
else
In
like
sorte
,
(
dearely
beloued
)
this
can
not
but
bee
vnto
a
singuler
comfort
and
consolation
continuing
our
hope
of
the
safetie
and
prosperitie
of
our
gracious
Quéene
Elizabeth
,
because
she
is
the
blessed
of
the
Lord
.
Elizabeth
is
the
blessed
of
the
Lord
,
and
therefore
let
her
enimies
curse
her
with
booke
,
bell
and
candle
,
the
curse
shall
not
fal
vpon
her
,
but
she
is
blessed
,
yea
&
shall
be
blessed
for
euer
:
for
there
is
no
repentance
in
the
Lord
:
God
is
not
as
man
,
that
hee
should
lye
,
nor
as
the
sonne
of
man
that
he
should
repent
:
hath
he
said
,
and
shall
he
not
doe
it
?
and
hath
he
spoken
,
and
shall
he
not
accomplish
it
?
hath
he
blessed
,
and
shall
he
not
continue
his
blessing
?
yes
surely
,
with
him
there
is
no
variablenesse
,
neither
shadow
of
chaunging
,
Iames.
1.
If
Isaac
Bessed
is
he
that
commeth
in
the
name
of
the
Lord
,
but
Elizabeth
commeth
in
the
name
of
the
Lord
:
she
came
not
to
gouerne
this
land
in
her
own
name
,
but
in
the
name
of
the
Lord
:
she
obtained
not
the
crown
by
her
own
power
,
but
by
the
power
of
the
Lord
,
who
miraculously
aduanced
her
thereunto
,
&
no
lesse
miraculousily
hath
hetherto
vpheld
her
therin
:
&
therefore
this
is
an
euident
testimonie
the
she
is
the
blessed
&
beloued
of
the
Lord
.
Secondly
,
She
is
blessed
out
of
the
house
of
the
Lord
,
as
it
hath
béene
blessed
by
her
,
so
it
blesseth
her
amongst
all
the
mightie
kings
and
princes
of
the
earth
,
there
is
none
by
whom
the
house
of
the
Lord
,
the
Church
of
Christ
hath
béene
so
wonderfully
blessed
,
as
it
hath
béene
by
Quéene
Elizabeth
at
this
day
:
by
her
principally
it
is
that
the
kingdom
of
Antechrist
decayeth
dayly
:
by
her
principally
it
is
,
that
the
Church
of
Christ
within
these
few
yeares
in
so
many
nations
is
augmented
and
aduanced
:
by
her
it
is
that
the
banished
children
of
Christ
,
not
hauing
a
place
where
to
rest
their
heades
,
are
louingly
receaued
,
and
carefully
fed
and
nourished
:
by
her
it
is
that
the
oppressed
ones
are
defended
:
&
they
which
war
for
it
,
are
strengthned
,
and
therfore
woorthely
hath
she
deserued
the
euerlasting
blessing
of
the
house
of
the
Lord
:
yea
and
no
doubt
,
the
whole
house
of
the
Lord
doth
blesse
her
.
And
therefore
wee
may
also
assure
our selues
,
that
the
Lord
ratifying
and
confirming
the
blessing
of
his
Church
,
blesseth
her
.
The
consideration
whereof
,
(
dearly
beloued
)
as
I
said
before
can
not
but
greatly
comfort
and
confirme
the
certainty
of
our
hope
,
concerning
the
safety
and
prosperity
of
our
most
gracious
Soueraigne
,
Queene
Elizabeth
,
that
notwithstanding
,
shee
is
cursed
by
the
Pope
,
the
maister
of
misrule
,
and
author
of
all
mischiefe
:
and
be
hated
of
all
his
fauourers
who
with
all
their
powers
bend
themselues
against
her
to
subdue
her
,
and
bring
her
to
confusion
:
yet
that
they
shall
not
bee
able
to
preuaile
ouer
her
:
but
that
the
Lord
for
his
names
sake
:
who
hath
miraculously
aduaunced
her
,
and
hetherto
preserued
her
:
yea
and
for
his
Church
sake
,
which
béeing
blessed
by
her
,
hath
blessed
her
,
he
will
geue
safety
and
prosperity
vnto
Elizabeth
,
to
the
continuance
of
the
glory
of
his
name
,
and
the
encreasing
of
the
blessednes
of
his
Church
by
her
.
The
which
the
Lord
vouchsafe
to
graunt
for
his
Sonne
Christ
his
sake
,
the
head
of
his
Church
.
To
whom
with
the
holy
Ghost
,
three
distinct
persons
,
and
one
onely
God
,
bee
rendred
all
honour
and
praise
,
both
now
and
for
euer
.
Amen
.
