fear_v that_o our_o dear_a lord_n jesus_n be_v like_a to_o go_v away_o and_o leave_v we_o and_o beside_o this_o there_o have_v be_v many_o other_o dreadful_a abomination_n commit_v by_o night_n and_o day_n which_o will_v make_v christian_a ear_n abhor_v to_o hear_v or_o tongue_n relate_v o_o but_o this_o be_v not_o all_o will_v you_o but_o hear_v a_o little_a far_o and_o we_o will_v tell_v you_o of_o a_o great_a abomination_n than_o this_o though_o little_o mind_v or_o lay_v to_o heart_n by_o many_o and_o that_o be_v the_o turn_n over_o of_o this_o holy_a book_n into_o stageplay_n what_o be_v the_o holy_a bible_n but_o the_o eternal_a god_n love-letter_n to_o his_o church_n wherein_o his_o mind_n be_v write_v yet_o be_v it_o turn_v over_o into_o stageplay_n for_o will_v you_o but_o walk_v down_o to_o the_o nether-bow_n and_o you_o shall_v there_o almost_o every_o night_n see_v some_o part_n thereof_o turn_v over_o into_o a_o stage-play_a be_v not_o this_o a_o horrid_a blasphemy_n yet_o this_o be_v not_o do_v in_o a_o corner_n they_o open_o avow_v the_o same_o for_o while_o they_o stand_v at_o the_o close-head_n call_v in_o passenger_n they_o proclaim_v their_o wickedness_n say_v walk_v in_o gentleman_n walk_z in_o and_o you_o shall_v see_v a_o choice_a piece_n of_o art_n and_o what_o be_v this_o choice_a piece_n of_o art_n you_o shall_v see_v adam_n and_o eve_n cain_n and_o abel_n all_o walk_n in_o a_o lively_a manner_n to_o see_v how_o they_o be_v create_v naked_a and_o then_o deceive_v by_o the_o serpent_n and_o how_o cain_n slay_v abel_n oh_o oh_o be_v it_o not_o this_o begin_v all_o our_o misery_n and_o woe_n do_v not_o this_o begin_v all_o our_o sorrow_n and_o lamentation_n and_o shall_v this_o be_v turn_v over_o into_o a_o stage-play_a and_o sport_n to_o make_v people_n laugh_v and_o be_v merry_a o_o that_o some_o will_v cause_n plead_v for_o their_o mother_n that_o that_o order_n may_v be_v take_v with_o such_o abomination_n these_o thing_n we_o can_v not_o but_o mention_n be_v so_o abominable_a in_o the_o sight_n of_o god_n and_o may_v not_o this_o say_v that_o he_o can_v have_v little_a heart_n to_o stay_v among_o we_o see_v we_o give_v so_o little_a esteem_n of_o his_o bless_a word_n that_o you_o see_v there_o be_v ground_n to_o fear_v his_o departure_n and_o go_v away_o from_o among_o we_o evid_v 4._o the_o four_o evidence_n of_o the_o lord_n departure_n which_o we_o shall_v name_v be_v the_o corrupt_a of_o his_o worship_n and_o overturning_a the_o comely_a order_n of_o his_o house_n in_o a_o violent_a way_n the_o set_n up_o a_o few_o vain_a self-seeking_a man_n over_o the_o inheritance_n of_o the_o lord_n who_o have_v on_o the_o matter_n renounce_v their_o minister_n as_o not_o of_o god_n and_o if_o such_o man_n be_v fit_a for_o rule_v the_o house_n of_o god_n let_v the_o bible_n and_o unbiased_a people_n of_o god_n be_v judge_n of_o the_o matter_n this_o way_n be_v never_o bless_v of_o god_n in_o our_o land_n former_o as_o to_o the_o conversion_n of_o soul_n and_o much_o less_o be_v it_o to_o be_v now_o expect_v that_o he_o will_v bless_v the_o same_o o_o how_o unbeseeming_a a_o title_n will_v paul_n have_v think_v it_o for_o he_o if_o any_o have_v come_v to_o he_o and_o call_v he_o your_o lordship_n or_o your_o lordship_n grace_n and_o how_o will_v he_o have_v abhor_v himself_o if_o he_o have_v see_v prelate_n mytre_n upon_o his_o own_o head_n and_o their_o syd_v robe_n upon_o he_o and_o some_o bear_n up_o his_o tail_n no_o ground_n in_o the_o bible_n for_o this_o yet_o it_o be_v do_v let_v this_o neither_o he_o look_v upon_o as_o matter_n of_o laughter_n to_o stranger_n nor_o of_o affrightment_n to_o friend_n be_v necessity_n constrain_v we_o to_o speak_v of_o these_o thing_n unto_o you_o now_o may_v not_o all_o this_o give_v sad_a ground_n of_o fear_n that_o the_o lord_n will_v go_v away_o and_o leave_v we_o see_v such_o abomination_n be_v set_v up_o among_o we_o use_v 2._o now_o we_o will_v in_o the_o next_o place_n desire_v you_o that_o be_v the_o people_n of_o god_n to_o encourage_v yourselves_o in_o he_o you_o see_v as_o we_o have_v clear_v that_o the_o assurance_n of_o christ_n return_n be_v the_o choice_n &_o only_o sufficient_a cordial_a against_o the_o heart_n faint_n of_o the_o sorrowful_a soul_n of_o his_o people_n at_o his_o departure_n o_o therefore_o make_v use_n of_o this_o cordial_n against_o the_o present_a distress_n and_o faint_n of_o your_o heart_n in_o this_o hour_n of_o affliction_n because_o of_o christ_n departure_n this_o be_v your_o present_a condition_n your_o heart_n be_v sorrowful_a because_o your_o dear_a lord_n be_v now_o short_o to_o be_v take_v from_o you_o but_o let_v this_o hold_v up_o your_o heart_n he_o will_v see_v we_o again_o therefore_o we_o say_v make_v use_n of_o this_o cordial_n for_o you_o that_o be_v his_o people_n have_v no_o less_o to_o hold_v up_o your_o faint_a discoveraged_a heart_n then_o his_o disciple_n get_v and_o that_o be_v the_o assurance_n of_o his_o return_n he_o will_v visit_v our_o land_n and_o so_o see_v we_o again_o object_n but_o some_o of_o the_o lord_n affright_v trembling-hearted_n people_n will_v here_o object_v alas_o that_o be_v the_o great_a thing_n in_o question_n and_o you_o have_v speak_v so_o much_o of_o his_o go_v away_o that_o we_o can_v hardly_o think_v he_o will_v return_v to_o we_o again_o and_o beside_o all_o he_o have_v not_o tie_v himself_o to_o any_o particular_a church_n and_o therefore_o no_o particular_a church_n can_v apply_v this_o promise_n to_o themselves_o and_o so_o what_o ground_n have_v scotland_n to_o apply_v this_o promise_n as_o a_o present_a cordial_a use_v 2._o though_o we_o have_v speak_v much_o of_o his_o go_n yet_o we_o have_v not_o say_v that_o he_o will_v not_o come_v again_o and_o we_o speak_v to_o something_n the_o last_o day_n for_o make_v it_o appear_v that_o he_o will_v come_v again_o as_o first_o our_o faithful_a reformer_n mr._n welsh_n mr._n wishart_n mr._n knox_n mr._n hamilton_n etc._n etc._n other_o assert_v that_o how_o be_v it_o christ_n shall_v be_v crucify_v in_o scotland_n yet_o glorious_a shall_v his_o resurrection_n be_v and_o may_v we_o not_o make_v use_n of_o this_o as_o a_o cordial_a against_o our_o present_a heart-fainting_n 2._o there_o be_v very_o many_o precious_a young_a man_n student_n of_o divinity_n who_o the_o lord_n have_v fit_v as_o polish_a shaft_n for_o the_o work_n of_o the_o gospel_n and_o of_o who_o he_o have_v never_o as_o yet_o make_v use_v therein_o and_o shall_v we_o think_v that_o he_o will_v now_o lay_v they_o by_o and_o not_o employ_v they_o in_o his_o service_n have_v be_v at_o great_a pain_n to_o fit_v they_o for_o the_o same_o 3._o a_o faithful_a service_n of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n who_o have_v this_o testimony_n that_o he_o fear_v god_n do_v late_o among_o we_o before_o many_o thousand_o witness_n at_o his_o death_n open_o declare_v his_o confidence_n as_o to_o this_o that_o how_o be_v it_o our_o cloud_n may_v be_v long_o and_o dark_a yet_o the_o lord_n shall_v shine_v once_o more_o with_o the_o glorious_a light_n of_o his_o gospel_n upon_o these_o land_n and_o shall_v we_o think_v that_o the_o lord_n will_v have_v suffer_v his_o faithful_a servant_n to_o have_v bring_v himself_o under_o the_o imputation_n of_o a_o deceive_a prophet_n at_o his_o death_n be_v in_o so_o great_a a_o strait_a for_o he_o if_o he_o have_v not_o have_v a_o mind_n to_o fulfil_v his_o servant_n word_n in_o see_v we_o again_o and_o we_o say_v now_o unto_o you_o that_o the_o lord_n have_v never_o more_o precious_a people_n in_o scotland_n than_o he_o have_v now_o though_o there_o be_v many_o hypocrite_n neither_o have_v ever_o have_v so_o many_o faithful_a minister_n in_o a_o suffer_a time_n for_o serve_v in_o the_o work_n of_o the_o gospel_n as_o now_o he_o have_v though_o there_o be_v also_o many_o that_o be_v unfaithful_a and_o we_o must_v think_v he_o will_v not_o lay_v they_o altogether_o bias_n useless_a but_o rather_o that_o he_o have_v work_n for_o they_o and_o therefore_o we_o may_v take_v this_o as_o a_o ground_n of_o encouragement_n to_o confirm_v our_o hope_n of_o his_o see_v we_o again_o object_n 2_o but_o the_o lord_n do_v cast_v of_o the_o seven_o church_n of_o asia_n when_o in_o a_o very_a flourish_a condition_n and_o do_v never_o visit_v they_o again_o with_o the_o gospel_n and_o why_o then_o may_v he_o not_o also_o go_v away_o from_o we_o and_o never_o return_v nor_o see_v we_o again_o ans_fw-fr there_o be_v never_o such_o a_o formal_a marriage_n contract_v pass_v betwixt_o god_n and_o the_o seven_o church_n of_o asia_n in_o their_o most_o flourish_a condition_n as_o heath_n pass_v
