A29472 A Brief relation of several passages of the life and death of William Barton of Shrewsbury, in October, 1661 wherein may be seen much wickedness against great workings of God in him, as also God's most just anger, and wondrous mercy (as is hoped) towards him / published by a relation of his, and intended chiefly for the good of such as knew him in Shrewsbury, many of whom can testify the truth of these things. 1664 (1664) Wing B4624; ESTC R37471 26,372 56

a_o lie_n when_o he_o think_v it_o may_v further_o that_o design_n some_o of_o the_o company_n then_o by_o say_v william_n you_o be_v not_o so_o bad_a as_o you_o make_v yourself_o now_o nor_o so_o bad_a a_o hypocrite_n as_o you_o think_v you_o be_v for_o of_o our_o knowledge_n you_o always_o love_v the_o best_a people_n and_o love_v the_o minister_n and_o will_v take_v their_o part_n though_o you_o be_v hate_v for_o it_o and_o hear_v god_n word_n constant_o and_o will_v remember_v a_o great_a deal_n of_o it_o and_o love_v to_o read_v good_a book_n and_o therefore_o you_o be_v not_o so_o bad_a as_o you_o make_v yourself_o to_o be_v all_o this_o say_v he_o do_v but_o aggravate_v my_o sin_n i_o do_v but_o enough_o to_o leave_v i_o inexcusable_a and_o make_v against_o i_o and_o that_o you_o may_v not_o be_v take_v in_o the_o same_o snare_n that_o i_o have_v be_v take_v in_o i_o will_v make_v a_o relation_n of_o my_o condition_n i_o do_v delight_n to_o hear_v good_a sermon_n and_o long_v for_o the_o sabbath-day_n and_o love_v it_o when_o it_o do_v come_v and_o when_o those_o psalm_n be_v sing_v that_o be_v promise_n to_o the_o saint_n that_o they_o shall_v be_v satisfy_v with_o the_o fatness_n of_o god_n house_n and_o fill_v with_o the_o river_n of_o delight_n and_o such_o psalm_n as_o set_v out_o the_o amiableness_n of_o god_n tabernacle_n and_o that_o scripture_n where_o it_o be_v say_v the_o work_n of_o righteousness_n shall_v be_v peace_n and_o the_o effect_n quietness_n and_o assurance_n for_o ever_o i_o shall_v be_v much_o affect_v and_o can_v not_o but_o weep_v when_o i_o sing_v such_o place_n and_o when_o my_o conscience_n tell_v i_o that_o i_o be_v not_o right_a and_o that_o my_o work_n be_v naught_o and_o that_o if_o i_o go_v on_o as_o i_o do_v it_o will_v be_v sad_a with_o i_o it_o will_v make_v i_o very_o sad_a and_o i_o will_v then_o resolve_v that_o i_o will_v be_v otherwise_o i_o will_v very_o think_v that_o i_o shall_v be_v better_o and_o will_v resolve_v as_o well_o i_o think_v as_o any_o one_o can_v resolve_v but_o when_o monday_n come_v and_o those_o thought_n be_v go_v of_o i_o i_o shall_v make_v little_a or_o nothing_o of_o my_o former_a promise_n but_o shall_v break_v through_o all_o as_o if_o i_o have_v never_o resolve_v and_o if_o any_o one_o do_v but_o call_v i_o i_o have_v no_o power_n but_o to_o go_v and_o if_o any_o thought_n shall_v come_v in_o my_o mind_n that_o may_v hinder_v i_o i_o will_v do_v the_o best_a i_o can_v to_o hinder_v such_o a_o thought_n because_o i_o have_v a_o mind_n to_o go_v and_o sometime_o i_o have_v seek_v temptation_n and_o though_o my_o conscience_n and_o god_n word_n will_v keep_v i_o a_o great_a while_n yet_o at_o the_o last_o i_o shall_v break_v through_o all_o and_o so_o i_o love_v a_o little_a ale_n better_o than_o god_n and_o better_a than_o myself_o and_o when_o i_o have_v break_v my_o resolution_n time_n after_o time_n i_o have_v no_o heart_n to_o resolve_v and_o think_v it_o be_v to_o no_o purpose_n and_o then_o i_o go_v on_o without_o any_o gage_n but_o i_o find_v that_o when_o i_o do_v resolve_v it_o be_v better_a than_o when_o i_o do_v not_o for_o sometime_o it_o will_v keep_v i_o but_o when_o i_o resolve_v not_o than_o i_o be_v drive_v any_o way_n and_o i_o will_v think_v sometime_o what_o may_v be_v the_o reason_n that_o my_o resolution_n never_o hold_v i_o as_o well_o as_o other_o people_n other_o i_o can_v see_v can_v resolve_v and_o keep_v their_o resolution_n and_o i_o always_o break_v i_o and_o i_o do_v think_v that_o the_o cause_n be_v that_o there_o be_v something_o leave_v behind_o something_o there_o be_v that_o my_o conscience_n put_v i_o on_o to_o do_v that_o i_o will_v not_o do_v sin_n lay_v in_o the_o bottom_n hide_v and_o unconfe_v and_o i_o will_v not_o go_v through_o the_o shame_n of_o confess_v that_o and_o though_o i_o resolve_v against_o every_o sin_n yet_o alas_o that_o i_o will_v never_o resolve_v on_o and_o so_o the_o sin_n of_o hide_v my_o sin_n be_v leave_v behind_o and_o now_o i_o can_v see_v that_o the_o first_o thing_n that_o i_o shall_v have_v do_v shall_v have_v be_v to_o have_v confess_v those_o sin_n which_o i_o have_v keep_v close_o all_o my_o life_n and_o because_o i_o will_v not_o part_v with_o that_o therefore_o all_o my_o resolution_n be_v as_o good_a as_o nothing_o for_o that_o sin_n which_o cause_v i_o to_o leave_v out_o that_o cause_v i_o to_o break_v over_o all_o my_o promise_n another_o cause_n be_v because_o i_o neglect_v secret_a prayer_n and_o that_o sin_n keep_v i_o from_o pray_v and_o stop_v my_o prayer_n i_o can_v not_o ask_v god_n for_o strength_n to_o do_v what_o i_o can_v not_o because_o sin_n lie_v hide_v in_o my_o heart_n which_o i_o shall_v have_v discover_v and_o i_o will_v not_o i_o hide_v my_o sin_n by_o lie_v and_o many_o a_o time_n when_o my_o mother_n will_v ask_v i_o what_o i_o have_v spend_v i_o have_v say_v indeed_o mother_n but_o two_o penny_n when_o i_o have_v spend_v a_o great_a deal_n more_o and_o though_o i_o think_v i_o will_v be_v better_o for_o the_o time_n to_o come_v yet_o i_o have_v no_o power_n the_o same_o evil_n that_o keep_v i_o from_o discover_v that_o sin_n make_v i_o still_o run_v further_o into_o sin_n therefore_o let_v every_o one_o speak_v always_o truth_n and_o that_o which_o be_v in_o their_o heart_n and_o if_o they_o shall_v at_o any_o time_n chance_n to_o speak_v that_o which_o be_v not_o so_o let_v they_o go_v and_o undo_v it_o the_o first_o thing_n that_o they_o do_v and_o tell_v they_o that_o they_o speak_v that_o which_o be_v not_o truth_n and_o then_o go_v quick_o and_o beg_v of_o god_n to_o forgive_v you_o and_o then_o you_o will_v have_v more_o power_n over_o your_o self_n at_o another_o time_n for_o if_o i_o can_v but_o have_v part_v with_o that_o one_o sin_n i_o do_v think_v that_o i_o shall_v have_v have_v power_n over_o the_o rest_n and_o i_o have_v think_v so_o then_o and_o have_v be_v convince_v that_o that_o must_v be_v do_v before_o i_o shall_v have_v any_o more_o power_n give_v i_o and_o yet_o i_o will_v never_o be_v willing_a to_o it_o when_o i_o will_v think_v of_o go_v about_o it_o the_o matter_n be_v so_o bad_a and_o i_o think_v i_o shall_v appear_v to_o be_v so_o odious_a that_o no_o one_o will_v abide_v i_o and_o then_o i_o think_v of_o some_o good_a folk_n that_o do_v love_v i_o and_o i_o think_v that_o they_o do_v not_o love_v i_o but_o because_o they_o think_v i_o to_o be_v pretty_a good_a and_o for_o somewhat_o good_a in_o i_o and_o i_o will_v think_v that_o if_o they_o shall_v know_v what_o a_o one_o i_o be_v they_o will_v never_o abide_v i_o again_o and_o such_o reason_n as_o these_o or_o something_o or_o other_o still_o keep_v i_o off_o and_o sometime_o i_o will_v put_v it_o off_o with_o reason_v that_o it_o be_v not_o necessary_a to_o confess_v it_o to_o man_n if_o i_o confess_v it_o to_o god_n i_o think_v it_o will_v serve_v the_o turn_n thus_o i_o go_v on_o run_v out_o of_o one_o sin_n into_o another_o till_o i_o be_v as_o full_a of_o sin_n as_o i_o can_v
