4 c So hard a thing it is to bridel our impacience in affliction that the saints colde not ouercome the same.

14 g We oght not to depend on the multitude in mainteining Gods glorie, but because our duetie so requireth, we oght to do it.

15 ! He is commanded to anoint Hazael, Jehu, and Elisha.

20 i Thogh this natural affection is not to be contemned, yet it oght not to moue vs when God calleth vs to serue him.
