begin_v to_o speak_v and_o of_o who_o i_o have_v take_v no_o notice_n till_o now_o they_o be_v not_o too_o great_a for_o almighty_a power_n to_o conquer_v nor_o yet_o too_o many_o for_o divine_a goodness_n to_o forgive_v he_o have_v strength_n enough_o to_o subdue_v all_o your_o corruption_n and_o mercy_n enough_o to_o pardon_v all_o your_o crime_n your_o sin_n be_v great_a indeed_o but_o his_o mercy_n be_v great_a for_o they_o be_v infinite_a your_o sin_n be_v many_o and_o increase_v to_o a_o great_a number_n but_o his_o mercy_n be_v more_o for_o they_o be_v numberless_a the_o cry_n of_o thy_o sin_n be_v reach_v up_o to_o heaven_n but_o his_o mercy_n be_v above_o the_o heaven_n now_o therefore_o take_v courage_n and_o adventure_n to_o cast_v thyself_o at_o his_o foot_n and_o lie_v at_o his_o mercy_n and_o do_v as_o the_o church_n we_o read_v of_o in_o divine_a story_n do_v cry_v after_o he_o my_o father_n my_o father_n the_o hope_n of_o his_o youth_n oh_o say_v he_o this_o be_v good_a council_n and_o i_o will_v to_o god_n i_o can_v do_v according_a to_o it_o but_o i_o can_v oh_o i_o can_v do_v it_o nay_o then_o say_v conscience_n i_o denounce_v thou_o to_o be_v a_o wicked_a and_o a_o accurse_a wretch_n curse_v in_o time_n and_o curse_v in_o eternity_n for_o the_o great_a lawgiver_n who_o vicegerent_n i_o be_o have_v declare_v in_o the_o record_n of_o his_o

in_o all_o thing_n that_o be_v write_v in_o the_o book_n of_o the_o law_n to_o do_v they_o and_o therefore_o thou_o be_v the_o man_n which_o the_o righteous_a judge_n of_o heaven_n and_o earth_n have_v denounce_v accurse_a nay_o if_o it_o be_v possible_a thou_o be_v more_o than_o accurse_a for_o first_o thou_o have_v not_o only_o not_o continue_v in_o all_o thing_n write_v in_o the_o book_n of_o the_o law_n to_o do_v they_o but_o thou_o have_v continue_v in_o nothing_o that_o be_v write_v in_o the_o book_n of_o the_o law_n to_o do_v it_o there_o be_v not_o one_o command_n in_o the_o whole_a book_n of_o the_o law_n but_o what_o thou_o have_v violate_v and_o break_v thou_o have_v wicked_o and_o wilful_o act_v contrary_a to_o all_o its_o rule_n and_o rebel_v against_o every_o precept_n contain_v therein_o and_o second_o thou_o have_v not_o only_o do_v all_o this_o but_o when_o the_o offenced_a majesty_n of_o heaven_n and_o earth_n have_v out_o of_o the_o good_a pleasure_n of_o his_o will_n gracious_o provide_v a_o remedy_n in_o the_o person_n of_o the_o redeemer_n offer_v that_o he_o shall_v by_o his_o infinite_a merit_n make_v a_o full_a satisfaction_n to_o divine_a justice_n for_o the_o wrong_n which_o thou_o have_v do_v and_o which_o be_v so_o great_a that_o you_o as_o a_o finite_a creature_n be_v not_o able_a to_o satisfy_v any_o otherwise_o than_o by_o suffer_v the_o vengeance_n of_o eternal_a fire_n and_o that_o you_o shall_v moreover_o upon_o your_o accept_n of_o and_o imbrace_v this_o offer_a redeemer_n become_v reconcile_v to_o he_o and_o enjoy_v all_o the_o felicity_n and_o glory_n of_o heaven_n you_o disdainful_o scorn_v and_o slight_v they_o reject_v the_o council_n of_o god_n against_o thyself_o now_o therefore_o if_o those_o who_o be_v altogether_o ignorant_a of_o this_o saviour_n and_o by_o reason_n of_o their_o live_n in_o heathenish_a or_o mahometan_a region_n have_v never_o receive_v the_o offer_n of_o a_o bless_a redeemer_n be_v accurse_v and_o must_v suffer_v the_o sentence_n of_o eternal_a damnation_n how_o much_o sore_a punishment_n think_v you_o will_v you_o be_v think_v worthy_a of_o who_o have_v spurn_v against_o the_o very_a bowel_n of_o mercy_n trample_v under_o foot_n the_o offer_v of_o pardon_n and_o spit_v in_o the_o very_a face_n of_o a_o tender_a and_o compassionate_a saviour_n ah_o sir_n say_v he_o all_o that_o you_o have_v say_v i_o acknowledge_v to_o be_v true_a and_o it_o all_o help_v still_o to_o aggravate_v my_o misery_n and_o heighten_v my_o offence_n and_o make_v my_o crime_n too_o great_a to_o be_v pardon_v but_o pray_v sir_n say_v mr._n hope_n let_v i_o prevail_v with_o you_o to_o cast_v yourself_o on_o the_o merit_n of_o our_o saviour_n and_o lie_v at_o the_o fountain_n

shall_v not_o be_v accept_v oh_o therefore_o resolve_v that_o if_o thou_o must_v perish_v thou_o will_v perish_v at_o the_o fountain_n of_o free_a grace_n and_o if_o thou_o must_v be_v cast_v away_o tell_v he_o who_o goodness_n be_v as_o large_a as_o his_o power_n and_o know_v no_o other_o limit_n than_o his_o own_o omnipotency_n that_o thou_o be_v resolve_v it_o shall_v be_v upon_o the_o very_a

shall_v be_v accurse_v so_o be_v the_o path_n of_o all_o they_o who_o forget_v god_n and_o the_o hope_n of_o the_o hypocrite_n shall_v perish_v yet_o if_o you_o will_v fly_v to_o the_o city_n of_o
