will_v give_v thou_o all_o the_o riches_n and_o all_o the_o glory_n in_o the_o world_n if_o you_o will_v part_v with_o christ_n consider_v whether_o thy_o heart_n be_v ready_a to_o deny_v whatsoever_o he_o offer_v to_o thou_o as_o he_o will_v be_v sure_a to_o offer_v that_o which_o will_v be_v most_o suitable_a to_o thy_o disposition_n whether_o thy_o heart_n have_v take_v this_o resolution_n to_o itself_o christ_n be_v my_o chief_a treasure_n i_o will_v part_v with_o all_o therefore_o i_o will_v part_v with_o liberty_n with_o life_n with_o good_n with_o credit_n with_o pleasure_n with_o profit_n with_o whatsoever_o be_v near_o and_o dear_a unto_o i_o rather_o than_o i_o will_v part_v with_o the_o lord_n jesus_n if_o this_o be_v thy_o heart_n resolution_n and_o mind_n than_o christ_n be_v thy_o chief_a treasure_n that_o be_v the_o second_o thing_n 3_o three_o consider_v what_o be_v thy_o chief_a joy_n and_o delight_n what_o be_v thy_o life_n i_o put_v they_o together_o for_o that_o which_o be_v a_o man_n chief_a joy_n indeed_o be_v his_o life_n for_o we_o know_v life_n be_v nothing_o else_o but_o that_o joy_n that_o the_o heart_n have_v whereby_o it_o be_v nourish_v and_o feed_v as_o it_o be_v for_o life_n be_v not_o to_o have_v body_n and_o soul_n join_v together_o to_o be_v a_o live_a man_n in_o that_o sense_n we_o usual_o take_v life_n for_o if_o that_o be_v life_n than_o those_o in_o hell_n shall_v not_o be_v say_v to_o die_v the_o death_n for_o you_o know_v in_o hell_n there_o be_v a_o conjunction_n of_o soul_n and_o body_n and_o yet_o man_n be_v not_o say_v to_o live_v there_o for_o it_o be_v death_n which_o be_v the_o punishment_n of_o sin_n and_o indeed_o you_o shall_v find_v that_o there_o be_v something_o a_o man_n heart_n cleave_v unto_o wherein_o he_o rejoice_v which_o be_v the_o same_o with_o his_o life_n therefore_o look_v as_o the_o soul_n enlivens_fw-la the_o body_n so_o the_o conjunction_n of_o the_o present_a thing_n which_o he_o reckon_v his_o joy_n that_o be_v his_o life_n enliven_v his_o soul_n he_o can_v live_v without_o they_o now_o if_o christ_n be_v thy_o chief_a joy_n thou_o will_v find_v this_o that_o thou_o can_v not_o live_v without_o he_o as_o man_n be_v wont_a to_o say_v of_o their_o delight_n such_o a_o man_n can_v live_v without_o such_o a_o thing_n so_o it_o be_v true_a of_o every_o man_n that_o have_v take_v christ_n he_o be_v not_o able_a to_o live_v without_o he_o this_o life_n be_v no_o life_n and_o therefore_o if_o there_o be_v but_o a_o separation_n between_o thou_o and_o christ_n if_o a_o man_n conscience_n be_v as_o it_o be_v cloud_v for_o a_o time_n he_o find_v no_o rest_n he_o do_v as_o the_o spouse_n in_o the_o canticle_n 6._o she_o seek_v from_o one_o place_n to_o another_o and_o give_v herself_o no_o rest_n till_o she_o find_v he_o and_o why_o because_o it_o be_v he_o who_o her_o soul_n love_v so_o you_o shall_v find_v belove_v whatsoever_o it_o be_v that_o your_o soul_n love_n whatsoever_o you_o make_v your_o chief_a joy_n you_o will_v take_v no_o rest_n but_o as_o far_o as_o you_o love_v and_o enjoy_v it_o therefore_o for_o the_o find_n of_o this_o whether_o christ_n be_v thy_o life_n and_o thy_o chief_a joy_n consider_v what_o it_o be_v that_o thy_o thought_n feed_v upon_o every_o wicked_a man_n every_o man_n that_o be_v out_o of_o christ_n there_o be_v something_o that_o his_o thought_n feed_v upon_o some_o thing_n there_o be_v in_o contemplation_n of_o which_o the_o soul_n so_o lace_v itself_o some_o pleasure_n that_o be_v past_a present_a or_o to_o come_v the_o very_a think_v of_o these_o be_v the_o great_a joy_n of_o his_o heart_n he_o roll_n they_o under_o his_o tongue_n even_o as_o a_o servant_n that_o have_v get_v some_o dainty_a bit_n out_o of_o his_o master_n presence_n and_o eat_v it_o in_o a_o corner_n so_o the_o soul_n of_o a_o man_n have_v out_o of_o christ_n some_o secret_a some_o steal_v some_o unlawful_a delight_n that_o it_o feed_v upon_o and_o delight_n in_o consider_v therefore_o well_o with_o thyself_o what_o breakfast_n thy_o morning_n thought_n have_v that_o i_o may_v so_o say_v what_o breakfast_n they_o have_v every_o morning_n what_o be_v that_o pabulum_fw-la that_o food_n of_o thy_o soul_n wherewith_o thy_o thought_n and_o affection_n be_v nourish_v and_o refresh_v from_o day_n to_o day_n whether_o it_o be_v some_o carnal_a pleasure_n some_o reflect_v on_o thy_o state_n upon_o thy_o wealth_n upon_o thy_o friend_n or_o whether_o it_o be_v on_o christ._n see_v as_o david_n exercise_v it_o whether_o be_v they_o thy_o 8._o song_n in_o the_o night_n time_n all_o carnal_a man_n have_v something_o past_o whereby_o they_o comfort_v themselves_o something_o present_a whereby_o they_o cheer_v up_o their_o heart_n something_o to_o come_v something_o in_o hope_n so_o every_o man_n that_o be_v in_o christ_n he_o have_v the_o comfort_n of_o the_o spirit_n the_o meditation_n of_o the_o privilege_n that_o he_o have_v in_o christ_n the_o hope_n of_o god_n favour_n these_o be_v his_o appoint_a food_n these_o be_v the_o thing_n that_o his_o soul_n feed_v on_o in_o secret_a yea_o the_o very_a work_n that_o he_o do_v that_o seem_v to_o be_v the_o hard_a part_n of_o a_o christian_n life_n the_o very_a work_n that_o he_o do_v in_o serve_v the_o lord_n from_o day_n to_o day_n even_o that_o be_v his_o meat_n and_o his_o drink_n that_o be_v it_o be_v as_o sweet_a and_o acceptable_a to_o his_o soul_n as_o meat_n and_o drink_n be_v to_o the_o hunger_n and_o thirst_n of_o his_o body_n now_o consider_v with_o thyself_o whether_o it_o be_v so_o with_o thou_o whether_o that_o which_o be_v thy_o continual_a feast_n without_o which_o thou_o can_v not_o live_v be_v christ_n or_o the_o assurance_n thou_o have_v that_o he_o be_v thou_o and_o thou_o be_v he_o whether_o it_o be_v the_o privilege_n thou_o have_v in_o he_o and_o the_o thing_n that_o belong_v to_o the_o kingdom_n of_o god_n see_v whether_o these_o be_v thy_o life_n the_o thing_n without_o which_o thou_o can_v not_o live_v or_o whether_o it_o be_v some_o thing_n else_o some_o steal_v delight_n some_o unlawful_a pleasure_n some_o thing_n else_o that_o thy_o soul_n and_o affection_n be_v set_v upon_o this_o be_v the_o next_o thing_n by_o which_o thou_o may_v try_v thyself_o whether_o thou_o belong_v to_o christ_n or_o no_o to_o consider_v whether_o he_o be_v thy_o chief_a joy_n whether_o thy_o soul_n be_v most_o fill_v and_o satisfy_v with_o he_o and_o this_o be_v the_o three_o thing_n 4_o the_o four_o be_v to_o know_v whether_o he_o be_v thy_o chief_a refuge_n if_o thou_o be_v one_o that_o have_v take_v he_o and_o receive_v he_o i_o say_v he_o be_v thy_o chief_a refuge_n for_o every_o man_n have_v some_o refuge_n some_o castle_n or_o other_o to_o which_o his_o soul_n retire_v in_o all_o difficult_a and_o doubtful_a case_n by_o reason_n of_o that_o indigency_n that_o insufficiency_n to_o which_o the_o nature_n of_o man_n be_v subject_a there_o be_v something_o that_o he_o must_v have_v to_o lean_v unto_o mark_v it_o for_o mankind_n be_v like_o that_o generation_n which_o the_o wiseman_n speak_v of_o you_o know_v it_o be_v say_v of_o the_o connye_n 26._o they_o be_v a_o generation_n not_o strong_a and_o what_o then_o and_o therefore_o they_o have_v their_o burrow_n to_o hide_v themselves_o in_o i_o say_v such_o be_v the_o generation_n of_o mankind_n he_o be_v a_o weak_a creature_n a_o generation_n not_o strong_a therefore_o there_o be_v something_o that_o he_o must_v lean_v to_o something_o out_o of_o himself_o some_o sufficiency_n beside_o himself_o some_o strong_a hold_n some_o refuge_n every_o man_n have_v i_o say_v every_o man_n have_v some_o refuge_n or_o other_o whither_o he_o think_v his_o soul_n may_v go_v and_o there_o he_o may_v have_v succour_n in_o case_n dangerous_a and_o in_o trouble_n now_o consider_v what_o be_v thy_o refuge_n whither_o thy_o heart_n run_v in_o all_o such_o case_n to_o what_o wing_n to_o what_o strong_a hold_n in_o dangerous_a case_n you_o see_v every_o creature_n have_v some_o refuge_n or_o other_o the_o child_n run_v to_o his_o mother_n the_o chicken_n run_v to_o the_o hen_n the_o fox_n to_o his_o earth_n the_o connye_n to_o their_o burrow_n so_o every_o creature_n to_o their_o several_a corner_n and_o receptacle_n proper_a to_o they_o i_o say_v so_o it_o be_v with_o every_o man_n so_o have_v every_o one_o of_o you_o to_o who_o i_o speak_v there_o be_v somewhat_o that_o be_v a_o secret_a refuge_n to_o which_o your_o heart_n

receive_v the_o sacrament_n the_o very_a intention_n be_v increase_v but_o this_o be_v not_o all_o there_o be_v another_o thing_n in_o the_o sacrament_n that_o much_o increase_v it_o and_o that_o be_v a_o thing_n i_o will_v have_v you_o chief_o to_o take_v notice_n of_o that_o be_v the_o very_a sacrament_n itself_o the_o element_n of_o bread_n and_o wine_n deliver_v to_o thou_o with_o the_o very_a word_n of_o the_o minister_n 25._o take_v and_o eat_v this_o be_v my_o body_n that_o be_v break_v for_o thou_o take_v and_o drink_v this_o be_v my_o blood_n that_o be_v shed_v etc._n etc._n for_o when_o these_o word_n be_v speak_v to_o we_o if_o we_o do_v consider_v well_o of_o they_o and_o think_v thus_o with_o ourselves_o these_o word_n that_o the_o lord_n he_o himself_o have_v appoint_v the_o minister_n to_o speak_v for_o therein_o be_v the_o force_n of_o they_o that_o they_o be_v of_o the_o lord_n own_o institution_n therefore_o the_o strength_n of_o every_o sacrament_n lie_v in_o the_o institution_n that_o be_v a_o rule_n in_o dininity_n the_o papist_n themselves_o who_o have_v add_v five_o other_o sacrament_n can_v deny_v but_o that_o every_o sacrament_n must_v have_v a_o immediate_a institution_n from_o christ_n himself_o even_o from_o his_o own_o mouth_n or_o else_o there_o be_v no_o strength_n in_o it_o so_o that_o even_o as_o it_o be_v with_o all_o thing_n that_o be_v symboll_n of_o other_o thing_n as_o take_v mark_n in_o field_n that_o stand_v for_o the_o division_n of_o several_a man_n right_n take_v counter_n that_o stand_v for_o thousand_o and_o hundred_o the_o very_a essence_n of_o these_o thing_n stand_v in_o the_o very_a institution_n of_o they_o so_o in_o the_o sacrament_n except_o these_o word_n be_v from_o the_o lord_n own_o mouth_n that_o deliver_v it_o this_o very_a deliver_v of_o the_o bread_n and_o wine_n be_v a_o sign_n to_o you_o of_o the_o forgiveness_n of_o your_o sin_n except_o the_o lord_n have_v thus_o institute_v it_o there_o have_v be_v no_o force_n in_o it_o i_o say_v consider_v they_o be_v word_n that_o the_o minister_n speak_v not_o in_o a_o ordinary_a course_n but_o he_o be_v appoint_v by_o the_o lord_n himself_o to_o speak_v they_o and_o now_o when_o these_o word_n make_v a_o new_a impression_n upon_o thy_o heart_n it_o add_v a_o intention_n to_o thy_o faith_n and_o love_n for_o example_n to_o make_v it_o a_o little_a more_o clear_a to_o you_o that_o you_o may_v understand_v it_o distinct_o the_o lord_n have_v say_v this_o he_o will_v forgive_v the_o sin_n of_o all_o those_o that_o come_v unto_o he_o he_o will_v forgive_v they_o that_o forsake_v their_o sin_n and_o take_v christ_n jesus_n and_o love_n and_o fear_v he_o for_o the_o time_n to_o come_v the_o lord_n may_v have_v suffer_v it_o to_o go_v thus_o in_o general_a that_o he_o have_v deliver_v it_o unto_o you_o and_o no_o more_o but_o he_o think_v good_a to_o go_v further_o and_o say_v thus_o to_o mankind_n it_o be_v true_a i_o have_v say_v it_o but_o i_o will_v not_o content_v myself_o with_o that_o but_o will_v add_v certain_a seal_n and_o symboll_n certain_a external_a sign_n that_o thou_o shall_v see_v and_o look_v on_o and_o i_o say_v to_o thou_o this_o covenant_n have_v i_o make_v with_o thou_o and_o when_o thou_o see_v the_o bread_n and_o wine_n deliver_v by_o the_o minister_n know_v this_o that_o the_o thing_n that_o thou_o see_v be_v a_o witness_n between_o thou_o and_o i_o that_o as_o it_o be_v say_v by_o laban_n and_o jacob_n when_o they_o make_v a_o covenant_n 48._o this_o stone_n be_v witness_n between_o we_o and_o god_n say_v to_o 15._o noah_n when_o i_o look_v upon_o the_o rainbow_n it_o shall_v be_v a_o sign_n that_o i_o will_v destroy_v the_o earth_n no_o more_o after_o this_o manner_n when_o the_o lord_n have_v say_v it_o and_o have_v appoint_v this_o outward_a symbol_n that_o thy_o eye_n look_v upon_o i_o remember_v the_o covenant_n and_o this_o be_v a_o sign_n between_o we_o this_o shall_v bind_v i_o to_o it_o and_o he_o likewise_o now_o when_o this_o be_v do_v anew_o it_o may_v be_v every_o month_n this_o be_v a_o wondrous_a great_a mercy_n this_o be_v a_o marvellous_a great_a help_n if_o it_o be_v right_o understand_v to_o strengthen_v our_o faith_n do_v it_o not_o help_v we_o when_o we_o see_v the_o rainbow_n which_o the_o lord_n have_v appoint_v to_o put_v he_o in_o mind_n of_o his_o covenant_n 15._o i_o will_v remember_v my_o covenant_n when_o i_o look_v on_o the_o bow_n in_o the_o cloud_n it_o shall_v confirm_v i_o and_o i_o will_v not_o break_v my_o covenant_n to_o destroy_v the_o world_n with_o a_o flood_n so_o this_o administration_n of_o the_o sacrament_n when_o the_o lord_n look_v upon_o it_o he_o can_v but_o remember_v his_o promise_n and_o his_o covenant_n of_o pardon_v our_o sin_n and_o when_o thou_o look_v on_o it_o thou_o be_v assure_v of_o it_o for_o he_o have_v say_v it_o it_o shall_v be_v a_o sign_n and_o a_o witness_n between_o we_o now_o i_o say_v that_o new_a impression_n that_o these_o word_n thus_o contrive_v and_o understand_v and_o deliver_v by_o the_o minister_n make_v upon_o the_o heart_n intend_v our_o faith_n and_o love_n as_o indeed_o it_o be_v a_o great_a matter_n to_o have_v it_o speak_v to_o we_o by_o a_o minister_n of_o the_o gospel_n send_v from_o christ_n from_o his_o own_o mouth_n 25._o take_v and_o

four_o qvalification_n that_o be_v reqvire_v that_o our_o faith_n and_o love_n be_v intend_v and_o our_o union_n increase_v that_o the_o will_n resolution_n and_o purpose_n of_o take_v christ_n for_o

which_o be_v require_v still_o remember_v the_o main_a thing_n we_o be_v upon_o that_o it_o be_v not_o enough_o for_o thou_o to_o be_v in_o christ_n but_o if_o thou_o will_v be_v a_o worthy_a

thy_o soul_n which_o it_o have_v gather_v thou_o must_v recover_v the_o distance_n that_o be_v grow_v between_o god_n and_o thou_o thou_o must_v add_v a_o intend_v and_o a_o increase_n thou_o must_v add_v more_o degree_n to_o thy_o faith_n and_o love_n and_o after_o all_o these_o five_o and_o last_o this_o be_v also_o require_v which_o be_v much_o for_o our_o benefit_n and_o comfort_n namely_o to_o put_v up_o thy_o request_n when_o thou_o come_v near_o to_o the_o lord_n in_o the_o sacrament_n now_o thou_o must_v not_o only_o do_v this_o but_o thou_o must_v also_o make_v some_o use_n of_o the_o covenant_n which_o the_o lord_n have_v make_v with_o thou_o for_o his_o part_n so_o that_o thou_o may_v think_v this_o with_o thyself_o when_o i_o come_v to_o receive_v the_o sacrament_n i_o

of_o all_o thing_n you_o have_v all_o the_o promise_n belong_v to_o you_o that_o belong_v to_o this_o life_n and_o that_o which_o be_v to_o come_v this_o be_v the_o covenant_n which_o the_o lord_n

not_o bare_o of_o i_o and_o of_o my_o be_v crucify_v for_o thou_o and_o of_o all_o the_o love_n that_o i_o have_v show_v unto_o thou_o but_o also_o in_o remembrance_n of_o the_o covenant_n and_o of_o those_o gracious_a promise_n which_o be_v the_o particular_n of_o which_o that_o covenant_n be_v the_o sum_n and_o therefore_o thus_o
