be_v of_o the_o lord_n own_o teach_v ever_o study_v that_o lesson_n for_o as_o for_o other_o they_o love_v and_o like_a their_o heart_n well_o that_o when_o they_o be_v convince_v of_o every_o thing_n else_o in_o the_o world_n they_o will_v boast_v of_o their_o heart_n that_o that_o be_v right_a but_o when_o a_o man_n can_v say_v as_o hezekiah_n say_v to_o god_n oh_o lord_n remember_v i_o pray_v thou_o that_o i_o have_v with_o a_o upright_a heart_n seek_v thou_o as_o if_o he_o shall_v have_v say_v if_o i_o can_v have_v do_v thou_o more_o service_n i_o will_v i_o will_v have_v pray_v better_a and_o believe_v better_a and_o be_v more_o active_a but_o thou_o have_v have_v my_o heart_n the_o soul_n that_o can_v say_v so_o the_o lord_n will_v answer_v it_o even_o as_o david_n say_v to_o the_o lord_n in_o 1_o chron._n 29._o oh_o lord_n say_v he_o i_o know_v that_o thou_o love_v the_o heart_n when_o he_o have_v offer_v up_o a_o oblation_n he_o and_o his_o people_n oh_o lord_n say_v he_o i_o know_v thou_o regard_v the_o heart_n and_o have_v pleasuere_a in_o uprightness_n as_o for_o i_o in_o the_o uprightness_n of_o my_o heart_n i_o have_v seek_v thou_o so_o when_o thou_o shall_v say_v father_n my_o memory_n be_v weak_a my_o utterance_n bad_a my_o temptation_n strong_a and_o my_o corruption_n great_a i_o can_v deny_v none_o of_o these_o but_o the_o lord_n know_v he_o have_v my_o heart_n can_v i_o get_v it_o in_o a_o better_a frame_n i_o have_v rather_o see_v it_o in_o a_o better_a frame_n than_o have_v the_o estate_n of_o a_o emperor_n where_o there_o be_v a_o willing_a mind_n it_o be_v a_o excellent_a speech_n of_o the_o apostle_n in_o 2_o cor._n 8._o in_o the_o point_n of_o alm_n and_o i_o will_v give_v you_o a_o instance_n in_o that_o that_o you_o may_v make_v of_o it_o in_o a_o hundred_o other_o thing_n when_o he_o will_v stir_v they_o up_o to_o contribute_v he_o say_v where_o there_o be_v a_o willing_a mind_n it_o be_v accept_v according_a to_o that_o a_o man_n have_v and_o not_o according_a to_o that_o he_o have_v not_o as_o if_o he_o shall_v have_v say_v the_o lord_n have_v give_v i_o a_o heart_n i_o like_v this_o cause_n so_o well_o i_o will_v willing_o give_v twenty_o shilling_n to_o this_o cause_n but_o i_o be_o not_o able_a to_o give_v above_o a_o penny_n have_v thou_o a_o willing_a mind_n to_o give_v more_o thou_o be_v accept_v according_a to_o what_o thou_o have_v the_o liberal_a gift_n be_v but_o the_o work_n of_o god_n providence_n the_o willing_a mind_n be_v the_o work_n of_o god_n grace_n the_o same_o will_v run_v throughout_o all_o duty_n go_v to_o prayer_n one_o man_n have_v such_o a_o utterance_n conception_n work_v fancy_n can_v speak_v admirable_o to_o the_o affect_v of_o all_o but_o these_o be_v but_o gift_n and_o part_n and_o if_o he_o have_v a_o humble_a break_a heart_n go_v with_o it_o there_o be_v spirit_n too_o but_o it_o may_v be_v another_o poor_a soul_n that_o join_v in_o the_o duty_n that_o can_v hardly_o speak_v a_o few_o word_n of_o sense_n together_o but_o god_n know_v if_o they_o can_v pray_v if_o they_o can_v pour_v out_o their_o soul_n if_o they_o can_v wrestle_v with_o god_n they_o have_v rather_o do_v it_o than_o any_o thing_n else_o in_o the_o world_n that_o be_v the_o work_n of_o prayer_n the_o other_o be_v but_o the_o work_n of_o common_a gift_n that_o be_v for_o the_o edification_n of_o other_o therefore_o know_v this_o all_o of_o you_o we_o poor_a creature_n deal_v with_o man_n and_o it_o be_v almost_o impossible_a but_o we_o value_v man_n according_a to_o their_o part_n a_o man_n who_o god_n enable_v with_o part_n and_o gift_n to_o edify_v other_o especial_o if_o there_o be_v grace_n in_o his_o heart_n too_o he_o be_v measure_v by_o the_o value_n of_o his_o part_n by_o all_o man_n god_n go_v not_o by_o that_o value_n no_o that_o soul_n that_o take_v most_o care_n about_o his_o heart_n give_v i_o a_o woman_n a_o handmaid_n that_o wrestle_v more_o in_o secret_a that_o she_o may_v bring_v her_o will_n to_o god_n will_n and_o may_v love_v and_o hate_v nothing_o but_o what_o god_n love_v and_o hate_v find_v such_o a_o one_o out_o they_o be_v god_n choice_a one_o and_o his_o jewel_n therefore_o be_v not_o discourage_v for_o the_o want_n of_o any_o thing_n while_o you_o can_v say_v the_o great_a god_n that_o know_v all_o know_v my_o great_a study_n be_v about_o my_o heart_n i_o will_v conclude_v this_o use_n with_o a_o speech_n i_o have_v often_o hear_v of_o one_o mr._n bane_n a_o man_n that_o be_v indeed_o a_o excellent_a eminent_a man_n for_o any_o thing_n that_o be_v good_a and_o not_o long_o before_o he_o die_v some_o friend_n be_v with_o he_o in_o his_o library_n it_o be_v a_o excellent_a one_o and_o they_o fall_v a_o commend_v of_o it_o i_o say_v he_o there_o they_o stand_v but_o the_o lord_n know_v that_o for_o many_o year_n last_o pass_v i_o have_v study_v my_o heart_n more_o than_o my_o book_n oh_o there_o be_v a_o study_n give_v i_o a_o scholar_n that_o can_v say_v i_o study_v my_o heart_n more_o than_o my_o book_n i_o study_v my_o heart_n more_o than_o my_o shop-book_n i_o study_v my_o heart_n more_o than_o my_o countinghouse_n i_o study_v my_o heart_n more_o than_o a_o bargain_n that_o it_o may_v be_v pure_a and_o holy_a this_o man_n be_v a_o bless_a man_n and_o woman_n that_o have_v but_o attain_v this_o and_o then_o last_o the_o last_o use_n that_o i_o will_v make_v and_o i_o will_v but_o even_o name_v it_o be_v this_o use_v 3._o i_o beseech_v you_o therefore_o for_o the_o time_n to_o come_v will_v you_o all_o make_v this_o your_o study_n you_o have_v hear_v it_o be_v a_o dangerous_a heart_n you_o bear_v about_o you_o whatsoever_o you_o be_v that_o think_v you_o may_v be_v most_o secure_a of_o your_o heart_n you_o be_v but_o fool_n to_o trust_v it_o and_o your_o conversation_n will_v be_v as_o your_o heart_n be_v remember_v all_o the_o argument_n i_o give_v you_o and_o let_v it_o prevail_v with_o you_o for_o the_o time_n to_o come_v to_o enter_v into_o this_o serious_a study_n how_o you_o may_v keep_v it_o in_o a_o good_a frame_n continual_o and_o this_o now_o will_v have_v be_v a_o introduction_n to_o the_o second_o question_n for_o this_o be_v sufficient_a to_o prove_v that_o it_o ought_v to_o be_v so_o but_o now_o the_o next_o be_v quest._n wherein_o stand_v the_o keep_n of_o the_o heart_n in_o a_o good_a frame_n it_o be_v true_a i_o confess_v it_o be_v comfortable_a to_o hear_v of_o the_o general_a endeavour_n of_o it_o but_o what_o be_v the_o rule_n and_o direction_n the_o servant_n of_o god_n shall_v attend_v to_o when_o they_o will_v keep_v their_o heart_n in_o so_o good_a a_o frame_n that_o it_o may_v be_v such_o a_o temple_n of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n for_o the_o lord_n to_o delight_v in_o answ._n that_o be_v too_o great_a a_o question_n in_o truth_n to_o handle_v in_o a_o little_a time_n only_o these_o two_o or_o three_o thing_n i_o will_v say_v in_o general_a before_o i_o dismiss_v you_o as_o first_o 1._o there_o be_v no_o talk_v it_o be_v not_o for_o any_o man_n live_v ever_o to_o talk_v of_o keep_v his_o heart_n in_o a_o good_a frame_n until_o first_o the_o lord_n have_v break_v it_o to_o piece_n and_o new_a mould_v it_o that_o be_v for_o certain_a while_o the_o heart_n be_v as_o we_o come_v into_o the_o world_n as_o we_o be_v in_o a_o state_n of_o nature_n the_o wild_a beast_n under_o heaven_n will_v be_v easy_o tame_v than_o the_o heart_n of_o a_o man_n will_v ever_o be_v order_v it_o be_v just_a as_o a_o bell_n that_o have_v a_o crack_n throughout_o all_o the_o bel-founder_n in_o the_o town_n &_o country_n they_o may_v hew_v it_o and_o chip_n it_o and_o scurf_n it_o and_o i_o know_v not_o what_o they_o will_v never_o make_v it_o sound_v right_a till_o it_o be_v choped_a a_o piece_n and_o new_a cast_n so_o i_o say_v the_o heart_n of_o man_n be_v by_o nature_n so_o forlorn_a so_o full_a of_o wickedness_n so_o utter_o destitute_a of_o all_o good_a that_o if_o all_o the_o teacher_n and_o tutor_n under_o heaven_n have_v it_o to_o work_v to_o bring_v a_o man_n up_o and_o make_v he_o right_o till_o god_n take_v away_o the_o heart_n of_o stone_n and_o regenerate_v he_o and_o give_v he_o a_o new_a heart_n there_o be_v no_o talk_v of_o ever_o keep_v it_o in_o a_o good_a frame_n therefore_o if_o you_o be_v not_o thorough_o ground_v in_o it_o get_v your_o heart_n knock_v in_o piece_n the_o first_o thing_n you_o do_v pray_v god_n almighty_a to_o break_v it_o through_o break_v it_o down_o break_v it_o up_o
