the_o most_o rich_a and_o excellent_a piece_n of_o all_o in_o his_o own_o particular_a property_n and_o degree_n the_o five_o discourse_n soul_n as_o you_o put_v i_o in_o mind_n of_o one_o thing_n i_o

want_v love_n consider_v that_o the_o principal_a and_o main_a employment_n in_o heaven_n be_v nothing_o else_o but_o to_o love_v and_o be_v belove_v and_o those_o there_o be_v the_o great_a lover_n

what_o you_o have_v say_v can_v choose_v but_o be_v a_o great_a comfort_n but_o i_o have_v a_o foolish_a scruple_n if_o you_o will_v give_v i_o leave_v to_o utter_v it_o yet_o i_o need_v not_o be_v so_o coy_a since_o you_o know_v enough_o by_o i_o this_o '_o it_o be_v i_o have_v be_v teach_v that_o we_o shall_v strive_v to_o love_v all_o man_n for_o almighty_a god_n sake_n and_o so_o i_o suppose_v it_o pass_v in_o heaven_n that_o all_o these_o great_a lover_n which_o you_o have_v express_v to_o be_v there_o be_v of_o this_o nature_n that_o they_o will_v love_v i_o because_o god_n almighty_a command_v it_o and_o this_o alas_o according_a to_o my_o low_a apprehension_n give_v i_o but_o little_a satisfaction_n for_o this_o love_n and_o good_a will_n be_v not_o to_o i_o but_o to_o almighty_a god_n whereas_o my_o perverseness_n be_v such_o that_o i_o myself_o will_v be_v belove_v and_o i_o mark_v in_o myself_o a_o great_a difference_n between_o when_o i_o give_v money_n to_o some_o little_a child_n i_o be_o please_v with_o &_o when_o i_o bestow_v a_o alm_n on_o a_o poor_a body_n that_o ask_v i_o for_o god_n sake_n in_o the_o one_o i_o find_v that_o affection_n i_o desire_v other_o shall_v bear_v to_o i_o towards_o the_o beggar_n i_o have_v no_o such_o inclination_n and_o the_o cause_n as_o i_o conceive_v be_v that_o one_o seem_v to_o deserve_v my_o love_n the_o other_o only_o to_o need_v it_o now_o if_o you_o tell_v i_o that_o in_o heaven_n they_o shall_v love_v i_o but_o i_o shall_v not_o deserve_v it_o i_o confess_v as_o my_o affection_n now_o stand_v it_o will_v be_v a_o great_a cool_n to_o the_o esteem_n i_o desire_v to_o have_v of_o their_o love_n light_n how_o true_o speak_v he_o that_o say_v i_o know_v myself_o a_o man_n that_o be_v a_o proud_a and_o yet_o a_o wretched_a thing_n be_v it_o possible_a you_o can_v endure_v to_o be_v belove_v beyond_o your_o desert_n i_o fear_v you_o endure_v it_o often_o enough_o in_o this_o world_n but_o here_o self-conceit_n make_v you_o easy_o think_v not_o only_o all_o love_n and_o esteem_v due_a to_o you_o which_o be_v offer_v but_o for_o the_o most_o part_n that_o too_o little_a be_v offer_v yet_o i_o have_v observe_v sometime_o it_o happen_v that_o we_o true_o conceit_v another_o to_o show_v more_o affection_n towards_o we_o than_o we_o have_v deserve_v though_o i_o never_o hear_v any_o offend_v at_o such_o excess_n but_o rather_o high_o please_v and_o engage_v to_o a_o endeavour_n of_o deserve_v it_o nevertheless_o i_o will_v strive_v to_o give_v you_o content_a even_o in_o this_o point_n therefore_o tell_v i_o what_o you_o think_v of_o a_o person_n in_o who_o reason_n govern_v in_o full_a measure_n so_o that_o not_o a_o thought_n pass_v but_o according_a to_o the_o pure_a direction_n of_o it_o do_v you_o believe_v in_o such_o a_o person_n any_o love_n can_v be_v unreasonable_a soul_n no_o certain_o so_o far_o be_v past_a doubt_n light_n and_o if_o we_o love_v any_o thing_n more_o than_o it_o be_v amiable_a do_v you_o think_v that_o love_n be_v reasonable_a soul_n i_o perceive_v whither_o you_o aim_v that_o since_o in_o heaven_n all_o be_v govern_v by_o reason_n none_o there_o can_v love_v otherwise_o then_o according_a to_o desert_n but_o withal_o i_o see_v there_o may_v be_v that_o desert_n in_o another_o and_o not_o in_o i_o as_o for_o example_n they_o shall_v love_v i_o because_o god_n who_o deserve_v to_o be_v obey_v command_v they_o and_o if_o only_o thus_o i_o rest_v as_o unsatisfied_a as_o before_o light_n why_o do_v you_o conceive_v that_o god_n can_v command_v any_o unreasonable_a thing_n especial_o there_o where_o reason_n be_v in_o its_o perfection_n for_o here_o i_o know_v not_o what_o the_o mixture_n of_o bodily_a quality_n with_o reason_n may_v make_v it_o reasonable_a for_o god_n to_o command_v or_o if_o god_n will_v command_v other_o to_o love_v you_o beyond_o desert_n yet_o do_v you_o think_v that_o himself_o be_v the_o essence_n of_o reason_n and_o understanding_n can_v love_v you_o so_o or_o that_o any_o one_o by_o his_o command_n can_v love_v you_o more_o than_o himself_o do_v soul_n this_o be_v right_a again_o yet_o i_o see_v we_o love_v many_o thing_n for_o the_o connexion_n they_o have_v with_o some_o other_o and_o not_o for_o themselves_o a_o dog_n a_o book_n a_o glove_n from_o a_o belove_a person_n be_v much_o make_v of_o not_o for_o itself_o but_o because_o the_o use_v it_o kind_o be_v a_o expression_n or_o rather_o a_o practice_n of_o our_o love_n towards_o the_o person_n to_o who_o it_o belong_v so_o i_o imagine_v because_o i_o be_o a_o creature_n of_o almighty_a god_n make_v and_o have_v cost_v his_o only_a son_n so_o dear_a a_o price_n those_o bless_a spirit_n inflame_v with_o the_o love_n of_o god_n may_v also_o express_v a_o affection_n to_o i_o which_o you_o see_v be_v whole_o by_o the_o desert_n of_o another_o not_o i_o and_o however_o it_o may_v be_v infinite_o more_o than_o i_o deserve_v yet_o be_v it_o not_o that_o which_o i_o express_v to_o be_v requisite_a to_o my_o content_n light_n your_o palate_n be_v very_o nice_a and_o delicate_a yet_o you_o shall_v be_v please_v

of_o bread_n without_o a_o thankful_a lift_v up_o to_o the_o feeder_n let_v i_o not_o put_v on_o a_o rag_n without_o bend_v my_o heart_n and_o tune_v its_o string_n to_o the_o love_n of_o he_o by_o
