have_v no_o man_n to_o perish_v but_o that_o all_o man_n shall_v come_v unto_o repentance_n so_o you_o see_v it_o be_v the_o will_n of_o god_n that_o we_o shall_v repent_v we_o of_o our_o sin_n that_o how_o soever_o we_o can_v do_v our_o duty_n live_v as_o we_o shall_v yet_o always_o to_o grieve_v at_o our_o heart_n be_v wound_v in_o our_o soul_n that_o we_o have_v offend_v god_n and_o can_v do_v as_o we_o ought_v they_o say_v that_o wound_n which_o bleed_v will_v the_o soon_o wound_n heal_v but_o when_o a_o man_n have_v a_o grievous_a wound_n and_o do_v not_o bleed_v there_o do_v usual_o

23._o as_o 1_o john_n 5._o 23._o this_o be_v the_o commandment_n that_o we_o believe_v in_o the_o name_n of_o his_o son_n jesus_n christ._n for_o though_o we_o be_v sinner_n and_o infinite_o guilty_a

what_o shall_v we_o be_v if_o we_o defile_v and_o contaminate_v the_o temple_n of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n four_o it_o be_v the_o will_n of_o god_n that_o we_o bear_v patient_o and_o quiet_o all_o the_o

this_o be_v but_o a_o false_a rule_n to_o examine_v by_o we_o shall_v rather_o do_v as_o the_o apostle_n command_v gal._n 6._o 4._o let_v every_o man_n prove_v his_o own_o work_n etc._n etc._n and_o then_o he_o shall_v have_v rejoice_v in_o himself_o not_o in_o another_o rule_n a_o three_o false_a rule_n be_v when_o a_o man_n will_v examine_v himself_o by_o the_o speech_n of_o people_n and_o the_o account_n that_o the_o world_n make_v of_o he_o but_o we_o may_v be_v in_o much_o account_n with_o other_o account_v a_o good_a christian_a and_o a_o good_a liver_n and_o yet_o all_o this_o be_v but_o as_o a_o shadow_n before_o god_n and_o therefore_o the_o apostle_n say_v rom._n 14._o 4._o every_o man_n must_v 4._o stand_v or_o fall_v unto_o his_o own_o master_n for_o god_n be_v able_a to_o

measure_v ourselves_o by_o this_o rule_n we_o shall_v be_v find_v too_o light_a in_o god_n balance_n the_o true_a rule_n be_v a_o righteous_a rule_n therefore_o we_o must_v examine_v ourselves_o by_o the_o law_n of_o god_n every_o one_o who_o will_v have_v a_o true_a trial_n of_o himself_o and_o then_o as_o the_o carpenter_n carpenter_n when_o he_o have_v apply_v his_o thread_n and_o line_n unto_o the_o timber_n by_o and_o by_o he_o see_v where_o it_o be_v crooked_a so_o when_o a_o man_n have_v thus_o apply_v himself_o unto_o the_o law_n of_o god_n he_o soon_o shall_v see_v wherein_o he_o have_v be_v sinful_a and_o faulty_a so_o this_o rule_n god_n give_v unto_o his_o people_n deut._n 30._o 2._o obey_v his_o voice_n according_a unto_o all_o that_o be_v command_v thou_o now_o for_o the_o head_n which_o we_o must_v examine_v all_o our_o sin_n by_o they_o be_v 1._o inward_a 2._o outward_a and_o god_n be_v the_o judge_n of_o all_o that_o be_v we_o must_v examine_v ourselves_o of_o all_o our_o sin_n commit_v against_o god_n and_o against_o our_o brethren_n there_o be_v a_o corruption_n in_o nature_n in_o the_o examine_n of_o our_o sin_n we_o deal_v by_o ourselves_o as_o a_o false_a judge_n do_v by_o a_o offendor_n examine_v he_o so_o slight_o judge_n that_o one_o may_v see_v he_o will_v willing_o save_v he_o or_o that_o he_o be_v afraid_a to_o find_v he_o faulty_a even_o so_o in_o the_o examine_n of_o ourselves_o at_o the_o best_a we_o look_v but_o at_o our_o outward_a sin_n be_v loath_a to_o search_v into_o the_o inward_a secret_n of_o our_o soul_n to_o find_v out_o the_o poison_n and_o corruption_n of_o our_o heart_n for_o from_o the_o heart_n come_v all_o manner_n of_o wickedness_n so_o that_o the_o true_a examination_n must_v be_v of_o all_o our_o sin_n so_o far_o forth_o as_o by_o any_o mean_n we_o can_v come_v to_o the_o knowledge_n of_o they_o both_o of_o sin_n against_o the_o first_o and_o second_o table_n secret_a or_o open_a what_o kind_n soever_o they_o be_v tradesman_n you_o know_v especial_o in_o great_a city_n tradesman_n use_v to_o keep_v a_o book_n of_o all_o their_o expense_n of_o their_o laying_n out_o and_o come_n in_o and_o so_o be_v often_o cast_v up_o their_o account_n to_o see_v whether_o they_o gain_v or_o lose_v in_o matter_n of_o the_o world_n so_o we_o shall_v take_v a_o account_n of_o all_o our_o action_n and_o keep_v a_o register_n of_o they_o every_o night_n we_o shall_v cast_v over_o our_o account_n to_o see_v how_o we_o have_v sin_v and_o offend_v god_n and_o how_o often_o how_o we_o have_v repent_v if_o we_o find_v thing_n to_o be_v well_o we_o shall_v bless_v god_n for_o it_o and_o if_o we_o find_v thing_n to_o be_v amiss_o we_o shall_v be_v humble_v in_o our_o soul_n for_o it_o thus_o we_o must_v labour_v to_o view_v all_o our_o action_n as_o we_o see_v god_n do_v gen._n 1._o when_o god_n have_v 1._o make_v a_o end_n of_o his_o first_o day_n work_n and_o so_o of_o the_o rest_n it_o be_v say_v he_o behold_v the_o same_o and_o lo_o all_o that_o he_o have_v make_v be_v very_o good_a so_o shall_v we_o from_o day_n to_o day_n take_v a_o view_n of_o our_o work_n speech_n and_o the_o like_a to_o see_v whether_o they_o have_v be_v good_a or_o bad_a humiliation_n the_o second_o thing_n in_o the_o practice_n of_o repentance_n be_v humiliation_n for_o when_o a_o man_n have_v see_v that_o he_o be_v a_o sinner_n and_o lie_v in_o sin_n this_o be_v not_o enough_o but_o then_o great_a care_n must_v be_v have_v also_o to_o be_v humble_v for_o they_o that_o be_v bitter_o to_o weep_v and_o mourn_v for_o they_o even_o to_o the_o shed_n of_o many_o tear_n if_o it_o be_v possible_a so_o peter_n do_v math._n 75._o 26._o 75._o it_o be_v say_v and_o he_o go_v out_o and_o weep_v bitter_o etc._n etc._n so_o mary_n magdalen_n luk._n 7._o 38._o it_o be_v say_v and_o she_o 38._o stand_v behind_o he_o weep_v and_o begin_v towash_v his_o foot_n with_o tear_n and_o then_o to_o wipe_v they_o with_o the_o

be_v a_o plain_a case_n when_o once_o we_o have_v see_v our_o sin_n the_o next_o thing_n to_o be_v do_v be_v to_o be_v humble_v for_o they_o as_o i_o have_v say_v even_o to_o the_o shed_n of_o tear_n which_o in_o god_n sight_n be_v so_o precious_a and_o acceptable_a that_o he_o gather_v and_o put_v they_o up_o in_o his_o bottle_n as_o psal._n 56._o 8._o thou_o 3._o tell_v my_o wander_n put_v

you_o go_v mourning_n and_o want_n comfort_n because_o you_o seek_v it_o not_o the_o right_a way_n in_o godly_a sorrow_n first_o to_o be_v humble_v and_o then_o to_o rejoice_v it_o be_v a_o
