father_n wrath_n and_o with_o satan_n death_n and_o hell_n and_o for_o our_o sake_n in_o particular_a sustain_v such_o woeful_a terror_n in_o his_o soul_n and_o torment_n in_o his_o body_n that_o he_o

of_o his_o father_n displeasure_n and_o the_o satisfy_n of_o his_o infinite_a justice_n and_o withal_o we_o shall_v serious_o ponder_v upon_o the_o inconceivable_a love_n of_o god_n the_o father_n in_o give_v his_o only_a and_o well-beloved_a son_n to_o suffer_v such_o unspeakable_a torture_n for_o we_o who_o be_v curse_a rebel_n against_o he_o and_o thence_o be_v draw_v to_o think_v on_o the_o

receive_v the_o bread_n and_o wine_n we_o must_v withal_o reach_v forth_o the_o hand_n of_o faith_n to_o apprehend_v and_o lay_v hold_v of_o christ_n four_o in_o eat_v the_o bread_n and_o drink_v the_o wine_n we_o must_v apply_v christ_n with_o all_o his_o merit_n particular_o unto_o ourselves_o and_o be_v assure_v that_o as_o that_o bread_n and_o wine_n be_v make_v the_o nourishment_n of_o

to_o strengthen_v our_o body_n and_o to_o refresh_v our_o heart_n so_o sure_o christ_n be_v make_v one_o with_o we_o and_o we_o with_o he_o and_o than_o our_o soul_n shall_v be_v strengthen_v and_o our_o heart_n spiritual_o reviue_v either_o present_o in_o the_o very_a act_n of_o receive_v or_o afterward_o in_o due_a time_n when_o we_o shall_v stand_v in_o most_o need_n of_o comfort_n and_o

together_o with_o the_o fruition_n of_o all_o necessary_a outward_a blessing_n and_o the_o remoovall_a of_o all_o hurtful_a cross_n well_o be_v it_o for_o we_o indeed_o if_o we_o can_v look_v for_o
