the_o disease_n the_o disease_n be_v error_n who_o can_v understand_v his_o error_n it_o be_v propound_v interrogatory_o by_o way_n of_o question_n who_o and_o there_o be_v five_o kind_n of_o

of_o the_o king_n be_v they_o not_o write_v in_o the_o book_n of_o the_o king_n of_o judah_n and_o israel_n they_o be_v they_o stand_v in_o the_o public_a record_n and_o in_o their_o chronicle_n 5._o

there_o be_v two_o considerable_n 1_o a_o concession_n 2_o a_o confession_n he_o make_v a_o grant_n that_o our_o life_n be_v full_a of_o error_n concession_n a_o concession_n and_o the_o scripture_n say_v the_o same_o 10.6_o esa_n 53.6_o ps_n 119._o ult_n math._n 10.6_o while_o they_o affirm_v that_o all_o we_o be_v like_o lose_a sheep_n and_o i_o have_v go_v astray_o like_o lose_a sheep_n and_o the_o house_n of_o israel_n have_v lose_v sheep_n i_o need_v not_o reckon_v up_o the_o particular_n as_o the_o error_n of_o our_o sense_n understanding_n conscience_n judgement_n will_n affection_n desire_n action_n and_o occurrence_n the_o whole_a man_n in_o nature_n be_v like_o a_o tree_n nip_v at_o root_n which_o bring_v forth_o worm-eaten_a fruit_n the_o whole_a man_n in_o life_n be_v like_o

mercy_n towards_o we_o and_o acknowledge_v a_o wonderful_a difficulty_n to_o stand_v under_o our_o burden_n impose_v by_o god_n first_o we_o may_v wonder_v that_o god_n be_v mindful_a of_o we_o as_o david_n 8._o psal_n 8._o what_o be_v man_n that_o thou_o be_v mindful_a of_o he_o and_o the_o son_n of_o man_n that_o thou_o do_v so_o regard_v he_o he_o be_v a_o thing_n of_o nothing_o nay_o worse_o than_o nothing_o nothing_o have_v never_o offend_v god_n but_o we_o have_v do_v nothing_o but_o offend_v he_o in_o our_o whole_a course_n if_o we_o have_v but_o two_o or_o three_o error_n it_o be_v the_o less_o wonder_n but_o the_o wonder_n be_v because_o we_o have_v so_o many_o we_o be_v as_o a_o piece_n of_o tapestry_n curious_o wrought_v 139.15_o psal_n 139.15_o and_o now_o we_o be_v tear_v

and_o on_o the_o left_a this_o must_v quicken_v your_o love_n to_o god_n and_o your_o thankfulness_n for_o the_o enjoyment_n of_o the_o least_o blessing_n use_v 2_o second_o feel_o acknowledge_v how_o hard_o it_o be_v to_o stand_v under_o our_o own_o burden_n before_o god_n our_o many_o error_n make_v great_a weakness_n in_o all_o our_o part_n 7.24_o facilitas_fw-la cadendi_fw-la difficultas_fw-la standi_fw-la imbecillitas_fw-la surgendi_fw-la debilitas_fw-la perseverandi_fw-la psal_n 38.4_o rom._n 7.24_o and_o power_n we_o be_v easy_o draw_v to_o fall_v we_o be_v hardly_o able_a to_o stand_v we_o be_v weak_a to_o arise_v when_o we_o be_v down_o and_o unable_a to_o persevere_v when_o we_o be_v up_o without_o a_o covenant_n of_o mercy_n if_o david_n can_v not_o bear_v his_o burden_n nor_o paul_n his_o burden_n what_o shall_v we_o do_v except_o we_o fly_v to_o the_o strong_a man_n than_o he_o in_o the_o house_n christ_n in_o his_o way_n therefore_o as_o benhadabs_n servant_n come_v to_o ahabs_n servant_n with_o sackcloth_n and_o rope_n so_o do_v you_o come_v in_o humility_n to_o christ_n and_o say_v oh_o seek_v thy_o servant_n that_o put_v his_o trust_n in_o thou_o if_o you_o doubt_v whether_o he_o will_v help_v you_o be_v clothe_v with_o error_n as_o with_o a_o garment_n think_v that_o the_o lord_n be_v thy_o shepherd_n 10._o psal_n 23.1_o joh._n 10._o and_o that_o christ_n be_v the_o good_a shepherd_n of_o his_o sheep_n therefore_o as_o they_o defend_v their_o sheep_n as_o david_n do_v from_o the_o lion_n and_o the_o bear_n as_o they_o pasture_v their_o sheep_n as_o moses_n do_v in_o banishment_n as_o they_o water_n their_o sheep_n as_o the_o patriarch_n servant_n and_o child_n do_v and_o as_o they_o seek_v their_o sheep_n when_o they_o wander_v and_o go_v astray_o so_o will_v god_n in_o christ_n every_o way_n provide_v for_o thou_o against_o thy_o many_o error_n if_o they_o be_v not_o wilful_a and_o settle_v by_o curse_a custom_n and_o resolution_n to_o do_v as_o thou_o have_v do_v but_o i_o settle_v not_o here_o any_o long_o come_v next_o to_o the_o confession_n david_n have_v grant_v that_o man_n have_v many_o error_n and_o now_o he_o confess_v error_n confession_n that_o we_o can_v know_v our_o error_n that_o we_o can_v know_v our_o error_n put_v it_o to_o the_o question_n who_o can_v know_v his_o error_n the_o answer_n be_v negative_a man_n can_v know_v they_o you_o will_v say_v then_o it_o be_v in_o vain_a to_o search_v true_o if_o it_o be_v impossible_a for_o we_o to_o know_v they_o or_o to_o know_v more_o than_o we_o do_v but_o it_o be_v but_o difficult_a in_o itself_o and_o for_o we_o but_o you_o will_v say_v on_o the_o other_o side_n why_o shall_v it_o be_v so_o difficult_a 2.11_o 1_o cor._n 2.11_o when_o the_o spirit_n of_o a_o man_n do_v know_v the_o thing_n of_o a_o man_n it_o be_v true_a he_o know_v the_o thought_n purpose_n and_o devise_n of_o his_o heart_n but_o not_o every_o wind_a turn_v nor_o the_o issue_n of_o they_o and_o so_o it_o be_v difficult_a still_o you_o will_v inquire_v after_o two_o thing_n how_o come_v it_o that_o we_o know_v not_o our_o error_n and_o how_o we_o may_v be_v assure_v that_o we_o know_v they_o not_o it_o come_v to_o pass_v four_o way_n first_o error_n how_o come_v it_o that_o we_o know_v not_o our_o error_n from_o the_o infinite_a number_n of_o they_o infinite_a i_o say_v not_o with_o reference_n to_o god_n for_o the_o imperfection_n of_o the_o creature_n can_v numeral_o exceed_v the_o perfection_n of_o the_o creature_n but_o with_o respect_n to_o we_o they_o be_v more_o than_o the_o hair_n of_o our_o head_n more_o than_o the_o sand_n of_o the_o sea_n shore_n which_o can_v be_v tell_v by_o we_o the_o little_a bucket_n of_o our_o understanding_n can_v no_o

hypocrisy_n that_o be_v in_o we_o this_o make_v we_o not_o only_o deceive_v other_o 6.3_o gal._n 6.3_o but_o ourselves_o in_o our_o imagination_n and_o so_o we_o think_v they_o few_o when_o they_o

therefore_o we_o can_v understand_v our_o error_n by_o the_o opposite_a good_a if_o we_o have_v lose_v our_o grammar_n rule_v we_o can_v know_v the_o incongruity_n of_o our_o speech_n if_o we_o have_v
