than_o i_o prize_v or_o esteem_v the_o flattery_n of_o fond_a and_o foolish_a parasite_n he_o that_o desire_v to_o see_v a_o large_a account_n of_o the_o life_n of_o this_o reverend_n divine_a let_v they_o peruse_v it_o as_o write_v by_o the_o learned_a mr._n clark_n in_o his_o book_n of_o life_n of_o make_v religion_n one_o business_n my_o true_a friend_n it_o have_v be_v a_o usual_a say_n with_o i_o will_v god_n i_o can_v ever_o have_v the_o feel_n of_o it_o in_o myself_o that_o the_o character_n of_o a_o godly_a man_n be_v to_o make_v religion_n his_o business_n i_o will_v now_o a_o little_a descant_n upon_o it_o so_o as_o to_o set_v down_o what_o i_o shall_v and_o will_v do_v in_o this_o kind_n i_o shall_v set_v a_o copy_n at_o least_o to_o teach_v myself_o and_o provide_v a_o remembrancer_n to_o quicken_v my_o frequent_a dulness_n 1._o i_o desire_v to_o have_v my_o affection_n all_o mould_v by_o religion_n and_o towards_o it_o my_o thought_n and_o word_n and_o deed_n to_o be_v all_o exercise_n of_o religion_n and_o my_o very_a cessation_n from_o work_n command_v by_o religion_n and_o limit_v and_o circumstantiate_v by_o religion_n my_o eat_n drink_v sleep_a journey_a visit_a entertain_v of_o friend_n to_o be_v all_o direct_v by_o religion_n and_o that_o above_o all_o i_o may_v be_v serious_a and_o busy_a in_o the_o act_n of_o religion_n about_o the_o word_n prayer_n praise_n sing_v sacrament_n not_o only_o that_o the_o duty_n in_o each_o kind_n be_v perform_v but_o religious_o perform_v with_o life_n and_o vigour_n with_o faith_n humility_n and_o charity_n 2._o to_o these_o end_n i_o desire_v my_o heart_n may_v be_v possess_v with_o these_o two_o fundamental_a principle_n 1._o that_o religion_n be_v the_o end_n of_o my_o creation_n and_o of_o all_o the_o benefit_n not_o only_o spiritual_a but_o temporal_a which_o god_n bestow_v upon_o i_o 2._o that_o religion_n be_v my_o felicity_n even_o for_o the_o present_a though_o derive_v from_o that_o eternal_a felicity_n which_o be_v now_o lay_v up_o for_o i_o and_o to_o be_v hereafter_o possess_v by_o i_o in_o heaven_n so_o glorious_a be_v that_o felicity_n that_o from_o the_o first_o moment_n of_o our_o interest_n in_o it_o it_o cast_v a_o lightsome_a gladsome_a brightness_n upon_o the_o soul_n even_o many_o year_n sometime_o before_o the_o enjoyment_n of_o the_o fullness_n of_o it_o like_v to_o the_o sun_n shed_v forth_o his_o fore-running_a beam_n to_o enlighten_v all_o our_o part_n of_o the_o world_n many_o minute_n before_o his_o full_a light_n offer_v itself_o to_o our_o eye_n 3._o when_o i_o speak_v thus_o of_o religion_n to_o be_v felicity_n i_o mean_v it_o of_o god_n and_o christ_n the_o object_n of_o religion_n without_o who_o religion_n be_v but_o a_o empty_a name_n a_o pernicious_a error_n but_o as_o religion_n be_v to_o know_v god_n and_o he_o who_o he_o have_v send_v jesus_n christ_n it_o be_v eternal_a life_n begin_v now_o here_o below_o but_o never_o to_o end_v in_o any_o time_n or_o place_n 4._o i_o wish_v these_o thought_n may_v meet_v i_o first_o in_o the_o morning_n as_o worldly-minded_n man_n business_n do_v they_o that_o i_o may_v count_v all_o thing_n but_o interruption_n till_o my_o mind_n be_v settle_v in_o its_o course_n for_o that_o day_n and_o that_o my_o mind_n be_v so_o settle_v and_o habituate_v in_o these_o purpose_n that_o it_o may_v be_v ready_o in_o order_n ordinary_o and_o only_o need_v time_n for_o solemn_a performance_n of_o religious_a duty_n and_o for_o extraordinary_a project_n 5._o special_o i_o wish_v as_o i_o be_o bind_v by_o million_o of_o eternal_a obligation_n that_o i_o may_v love_v the_o lord_n my_o god_n christ_n jesus_n my_o redeemer_n with_o all_o my_o heart_n with_o all_o my_o soul_n with_o all_o my_o mind_n with_o all_o my_o strength_n to_o the_o utmost_a extent_n of_o all_o these_o phrase_n and_o that_o to_o make_v my_o mind_n more_o apprehensive_a of_o they_o i_o may_v not_o profane_v any_o of_o they_o by_o use_v to_o say_v in_o slight_a matter_n i_o love_v such_o a_o thing_n with_o all_o my_o heart_n or_o i_o will_v do_v such_o a_o thing_n with_o all_o my_o heart_n it_o may_v seem_v a_o nicety_n to_o check_v such_o a_o phrase_n but_o i_o read_v this_o morning_n pro._n 7.2_o keep_v my_o
