but_o whilst_o i_o be_v consider_v of_o these_o thing_n i_o have_v this_o scripture_n set_v home_o with_o abundance_n of_o sweetness_n psalm_n 50.15_o call_v upon_o i_o in_o the_o day_n of_o trouble_n and_o i_o will_v deliver_v thou_o and_o thou_o shall_v glorify_v i_o and_o in_o the_o time_n of_o my_o extremity_n this_o word_n be_v set_v home_o upon_o my_o heart_n again_o and_o my_o good_a god_n make_v i_o to_o experience_n the_o truth_n of_o it_o in_o a_o wonderful_a manner_n for_o i_o have_v speedy_a deliverance_n beyond_o my_o expectation_n which_o fill_v my_o heart_n and_o mouth_n with_o praise_n to_o the_o lord_n about_o three_o day_n after_o a_o friend_n come_v to_o visit_v i_o i_o relate_v to_o she_o how_o good_a the_o lord_n have_v be_v unto_o i_o and_o how_o sweet_o my_o heart_n be_v establish_v but_o no_o soon_o be_v my_o friend_n go_v but_o i_o be_v tempt_v to_o think_v my_o faith_n be_v false_a but_o i_o labour_v what_o i_o can_v to_o encourage_v myself_o in_o the_o lord_n my_o god_n but_o as_o i_o lie_v in_o my_o bed_n i_o think_v i_o see_v three_o man_n before_o i_o and_o it_o be_v present_o suggest_v to_o i_o that_o these_o be_v the_o three_o person_n in_o the_o trinity_n o_o than_o i_o be_v very_o much_o trouble_v but_o i_o know_v i_o be_v under_o a_o temptation_n and_o therefore_o cry_v to_o the_o lord_n for_o help_v but_o be_v not_o present_o deliver_v from_o it_o but_o i_o have_v this_o scripture_n bring_v to_o my_o mind_n no_o man_n shall_v see_v my_o face_n and_o live_v exod._n 33.20_o but_o not_o be_v yet_o free_v i_o begin_v to_o consider_v what_o i_o have_v hear_v and_o read_v as_o mean_n to_o help_v against_o such_o temptation_n at_o last_o i_o remember_v that_o mr._n bolton_n in_o his_o book_n of_o instruction_n for_o the_o right_n comfort_v of_o afflict_a conscience_n give_v this_o direction_n after_o the_o party_n have_v pray_v for_o help_v against_o the_o tempter_n and_o do_v what_o they_o can_v in_o repel_v he_o by_o the_o word_n of_o god_n that_o if_o they_o be_v yet_o follow_v by_o satan_n that_o then_o they_o shall_v set_v about_o some_o honest_a employment_n but_o now_o i_o be_v in_o bed_n and_o know_v not_o what_o to_o set_v about_o for_o the_o present_a at_o last_o i_o resolve_v to_o try_v to_o suckle_v my_o child_n which_o i_o do_v and_o then_o lie_v down_o again_o and_o find_v that_o i_o be_v pretty_a well_o free_v from_o that_o temptation_n and_o find_v myself_o much_o distemper_v in_o my_o head_n i_o desire_v the_o lord_n to_o give_v i_o rest_n and_o go_v about_o to_o compose_v myself_o to_o sleep_v but_o as_o i_o lie_v i_o think_v satan_n stand_v before_o i_o ask_v where_o i_o can_v find_v a_o promise_n for_o sleep_n at_o present_a i_o can_v not_o think_v of_o any_o but_o after_o some_o study_n this_o be_v bring_v into_o my_o mind_n the_o lord_n will_v give_v his_o belove_a sleep_n this_o word_n comfort_v i_o but_o yet_o i_o can_v not_o all_o that_o night_n get_v any_o sleep_n but_o still_o think_v i_o see_v satan_n laugh_v at_o i_o because_o i_o have_v no_o sleep_n and_o yet_o trust_v in_o his_o word_n thus_o all_o the_o night_n i_o continue_v weak_a in_o body_n and_o comfortless_a in_o mind_n so_o that_o in_o the_o morning_n i_o expect_v nothing_o but_o death_n then_o begin_v to_o think_v more_o serious_o of_o my_o change_n satan_n as_o i_o then_o think_v ask_v i_o where_o be_v my_o assurance_n of_o my_o everlasting_a happiness_n at_o this_o i_o be_v very_o much_o trouble_v know_v i_o have_v not_o full_a assurance_n but_o yet_o some_o good_a hope_n through_o the_o goodness_n of_o god_n i_o have_v therefore_o my_o heart_n make_v answer_v it_o be_v true_a i_o have_v no_o assurance_n but_o i_o have_v cast_v myself_o whole_o upon_o the_o lord_n christ_n and_o in_o he_o only_o be_v my_o hope_n and_o here_o will_v i_o rest_v and_o if_o i_o perish_v i_o perish_v but_o sure_o i_o be_o such_o shall_v not_o perish_v for_o christ_n have_v promise_v they_o eternal_a life_n thus_o be_v assist_v by_o the_o lord_n i_o vanquish_v satan_n for_o that_o time_n and_o be_v thus_o at_o peace_n i_o quick_o fall_v asleep_a and_o dream_v there_o be_v a_o ladder_n set_v upon_o the_o earth_n who_o top_n reach_v to_o heaven_n and_o i_o think_v i_o be_v to_o go_v up_o that_o ladder_n into_o heaven_n &_o that_o as_o fast_o as_o i_o get_v up_o i_o be_v pull_v down_o again_o which_o cause_v i_o to_o shed_v abundance_n of_o tear_n fear_v that_o i_o shall_v never_o get_v up_o and_o i_o think_v something_o from_o above_o draw_v i_o by_o the_o arm_n but_o i_o can_v not_o see_v what_o but_o at_o last_o i_o think_v i_o be_v in_o heaven_n where_o all_o tear_n be_v wipe_v from_o my_o eye_n and_o i_o be_v fill_v with_o rejoice_v but_o when_o i_o have_v be_v there_o a_o little_a while_n i_o think_v i_o be_v to_o go_v back_o again_o to_o the_o earth_n and_o this_o very_a much_o trouble_v i_o but_o then_o i_o think_v i_o hear_v a_o voice_n say_v it_o will_v be_v but_o for_o a_o little_a while_n and_o that_o i_o shall_v die_v in_o childbed_n and_o that_o the_o night_n before_o i_o die_v i_o shall_v have_v full_a assurance_n this_o very_a much_o rejoice_v i_o and_o i_o be_v very_o desirous_a to_o know_v of_o what_o child_n i_o shall_v die_v but_o that_o be_v deny_v i_o upon_o this_o account_n because_o i_o shall_v be_v always_o prepare_v but_o when_o i_o do_v awake_a i_o be_v fill_v with_o unexpressible_a joy_n earnest_o long_v to_o be_v dissolve_v and_o to_o be_v with_o christ_n which_o be_v best_a of_o all_o and_o yet_o willing_a if_o the_o lord_n please_v to_o suffer_v any_o thing_n which_o may_v be_v inflict_v on_o i_o then_o i_o remember_v how_o satan_n when_o i_o be_v about_o to_o turn_v to_o god_n will_v present_v the_o suffering_n of_o god_n people_n to_o i_o think_v by_o that_o mean_n to_o turn_v i_o back_o again_o and_o how_o i_o shall_v be_v discourage_v by_o they_o but_o be_v fill_v with_o the_o joy_n of_o god_n spirit_n i_o think_v i_o can_v suffer_v any_o thing_n not_o wonder_v as_o i_o have_v do_v how_o the_o saint_n of_o old_a can_v bear_v up_o so_o brave_o under_o their_o suffering_n but_o after_o i_o begin_v to_o amend_v my_o joy_n be_v not_o so_o full_a as_o they_o have_v be_v but_o i_o have_v a_o more_o settle_a peace_n than_o former_o i_o have_v bless_a be_v the_o lord_n i_o have_v many_o various_a change_n in_o my_o spiritual_a state_n but_o once_o have_v a_o great_a sense_n of_o a_o hard_a heart_n and_o be_v desirous_a to_o have_v it_o mollify_v i_o be_v tempt_v to_o do_v some_o great_a evil_n as_o the_o only_a mean_n to_o break_v i_o and_o that_o it_o may_v be_v the_o ready_a entertain_v satan_n put_v it_o into_o my_o heart_n to_o consider_v the_o condition_n of_o nathaniel_n butler_n who_o heart_n be_v unbroken_a till_o the_o commission_n of_o that_o horrid_a sin_n of_o murder_n and_o then_o this_o great_a evil_n bring_v he_o to_o a_o sight_n and_o sense_n of_o all_o sin_n this_o temptation_n be_v very_o strong_a upon_o i_o but_o yet_o strong_a be_v he_o that_o be_v with_o i_o than_o he_o that_o be_v against_o i_o for_o at_o that_o very_a instant_n do_v the_o lord_n cast_v into_o my_o heart_n that_o happy_a word_n

have_v forget_v till_o the_o lord_n revive_v it_o upon_o my_o heart_n almost_o two_o year_n after_o as_o i_o be_v read_v the_o chapter_n and_o since_o my_o child_n be_v wean_v i_o be_v in_o such_o a_o
