unlikely_a that_o some_o of_o those_o wit_n that_o be_v take_v more_o with_o thing_n new_a then_o with_o thing_n necessary_a will_v marvel_v that_o i_o choose_v so_o common_a a_o subject_n and_o tell_v i_o that_o they_o all_o know_v this_o already_o but_o i_o do_v it_o purposely_o upon_o these_o follow_a consideration_n 1._o because_o i_o well_o know_v that_o it_o be_v these_o common_a

these_o common_a truth_n save_o that_o think_v they_o know_v they_o 3._o because_o there_o be_v several_a degree_n of_o know_v the_o same_o truth_n and_o the_o best_a be_v imperfect_a in_o degree_n the_o principal_a growth_n in_o knowledge_n that_o we_o shall_v look_v after_o be_v not_o to_o know_v more_o matter_n than_o we_o kne●_n before_o but_o to_o know_v that_o better_a and_o with_o a_o clear_a light_n and_o firm_a apprehension_n which_o we_o dark_o and_o slight_o know_v before_o you_o may_v more_o safe_o be_v without_o any_o knowledge_n at_o all_o of_o many_o low_a truth_n then_o without_o some_o further_a degree_n of_o the_o knowledge_n of_o those_o which_o you_o already_o know_v 4._o beside_o it_o be_v know_v by_o sad_a experience_n that_o many_o perish_v who_o know_v the_o

therefore_o to_o teach_v and_o help_v you_o to_o get_v these_o truth_n which_o you_o know_v into_o your_o heart_n and_o life_n as_o to_o tell_v you_o more_o 5._o and_o indeed_o it_o be_v the_o

be_v the_o very_a instrument_n of_o the_o great_a work_n that_o be_v to_o be_v do_v upon_o the_o heart_n by_o the_o spirit_n and_o ourselves_o in_o the_o right_a use_n of_o these_o it_o be_v that_o the_o principal_a part_n of_o the_o skill_n and_o holy_a wisdom_n of_o a_o christian_n do_v consist_v and_o in_o the_o diligent_a and_o constant_a use_n of_o these_o lie_v the_o life_n and_o trade_n of_o christianity_n there_o be_v nothing_o amiss_o in_o man_n heart_n or_o life_n but_o it_o be_v for_o want_v of_o sound_n know_v and_o believe_v or_o well_o use_v these_o fundamental_n 6._o and_o moreover_o methinks_v in_o this_o choice_n of_o my_o subject_n i_o may_v expect_v this_o advantage_n with_o the_o hearer_n that_o i_o may_v spare_v that_o labour_n that_o else_o will_v be_v necessary_a for_o the_o proof_n of_o my_o doctrine_n and_o that_o i_o may_v also_o have_v easy_a access_n to_o your_o heart_n and_o have_v a_o full_a stroke_n at_o they_o and_o with_o less_o resistance_n if_o i_o come_v to_o tell_v you_o of_o any_o thing_n not_o common_a i_o know_v not_o how_o far_o i_o may_v expect_v belief_n from_o you_o you_o may_v say_v these_o thing_n be_v
