be_v loath_a to_o die_v nature_n shrink_v at_o it_o body_n and_o soul_n be_v not_o willing_a to_o part_v 4._o skin_n for_o skin_n say_v satan_n true_o yea_o all_o that_o a_o man_n have_v will_v he_o

for_o we_o to_o fall_v into_o corruption_n and_o the_o deformity_n of_o death_n and_o the_o dishonour_n of_o a_o grave_a and_o it_o be_v against_o the_o most_o natural_a and_o general_a instinct_n of_o self-preservation_n now_o if_o we_o inquire_v into_o the_o bottom_n of_o all_o this_o we_o shall_v find_v man_n be_v chief_o afraid_a that_o death_n put_v a_o end_n to_o their_o be_v or_o that_o the_o next_o life_n will_v not_o please_v they_o but_o they_o need_v not_o fear_n since_o our_o saviour_n have_v discover_v to_o we_o that_o there_o be_v another_o glorious_a world_n which_o our_o

in_o and_o therefore_o who_o can_v blame_v they_o that_o they_o be_v afraid_a of_o death_n which_o take_v they_o away_o from_o all_o their_o comfort_n in_o this_o life_n but_o alas_o these_o man_n shall_v consider_v that_o we_o be_v to_o be_v here_o but_o as_o traveller_n or_o inmate_n we_o be_v not_o to_o tarry_v it_o be_v not_o our_o abide_a place_n this_o be_v not_o our_o inheritance_n but_o a_o transitory_a scene_n which_o can_v last_v our_o body_n themselves_o do_v soon_o fall_v to_o decay_v and_o in_o a_o while_n to_o dust_n and_o the_o 10._o whole_a world_n will_v at_o last_o break_v out_o into_o a_o universal_a flame_n therefore_o we_o shall_v have_v a_o care_n that_o we_o do_v not_o set_v our_o heart_n too_o much_o upon_o it_o lest_o lake_n of_o fire_n be_v prepare_v for_o we_o and_o this_o make_v affliction_n sometime_o necessary_a yet_o if_o it_o shall_v please_v god_n to_o send_v we_o none_o but_o that_o we_o have_v all_o the_o happiness_n which_o can_v be_v heap_v upon_o we_o here_o we_o have_v no_o cause_n to_o complain_v if_o we_o must_v change_v the_o transitory_a satisfaction_n of_o this_o world_n for_o the_o more_o noble_a and_o last_a pleasure_n of_o the_o next_o and_o what_o disadvantage_n be_v it_o to_o be_v remove_v to_o a_o better_a place_n and_o more_o happy_a life_n as_o soon_o as_o ever_o the_o soul_n have_v take_v her_o flight_n from_o the_o body_n and_o have_v leave_v this_o life_n she_o enter_v into_o a_o new_a and_o more_o glorious_a state_n than_o ever_o the_o sun_n see_v enlarge_v her_o prospect_n and_o view_v and_o admire_v the_o glory_n and_o beauty_n of_o that_o happy_a place_n and_o so_o rejoice_v in_o the_o pleasure_n of_o it_o that_o it_o be_v worse_o than_o death_n to_o return_v hither_o again_o it_o be_v say_v of_o the_o new_a jerusalem_n that_o 5._o there_o shall_v be_v no_o curse_n in_o it_o nothing_o to_o embitter_v that_o state_n but_o the_o throne_n of_o god_n and_o of_o the_o lamb_n shall_v be_v in_o it_o and_o his_o servant_n shall_v serve_v he_o and_o they_o shall_v see_v his_o face_n and_o there_o shall_v be_v no_o night_n nor_o need_v of_o a_o candle_n neither_o light_n of_o the_o sun_n nor_o of_o the_o moon_n to_o shine_v in_o it_o for_o the_o glory_n of_o god_n lighten_v it_o where_o they_o shall_v reign_v for_o ever_o and_o ever_o and_o although_o we_o can_v tell_v now_o how_o these_o thing_n will_v affect_v we_o to_o be_v sure_o no_o wicked_a man_n can_v be_v happy_a in_o god_n presence_n for_o there_o be_v such_o a_o unlikeness_n and_o contrariety_n in_o impure_a and_o pollute_a soul_n to_o the_o infinite_o holy_a god_n that_o it_o be_v impossible_a there_o shall_v be_v any_o friendly_a communication_n between_o they_o he_o be_v not_o a_o god_n say_v the_o psalmist_n who_o have_v pleasure_n in_o wickedness_n neither_o can_v evil_o dwell_v with_o he_o and_o 14._o what_o communion_n say_v the_o apostle_n have_v light_n with_o darkness_n but_o yet_o to_o a_o generous_a and_o virtuous_a mind_n what_o can_v be_v more_o delightful_a than_o to_o have_v our_o understanding_n entertain_v with_o a_o clear_a sight_n of_o the_o first_o and_o best_a be_v to_o admire_v his_o

in_o the_o place_n he_o have_v prepare_v for_o we_o to_o enter_v into_o the_o perpetual_a society_n and_o friendship_n of_o the_o holy_a angel_n to_o who_o we_o shall_v be_v make_v equal_a and_o 23._o the_o spirit_n of_o just_a man_n make_v perfect_a many_o of_o our_o dear_a relation_n and_o intimate_a acquaintance_n who_o probable_o we_o shall_v know_v again_o with_o all_o those_o brave_a and_o worthy_a soul_n who_o we_o have_v see_v or_o hear_v of_o and_o all_o the_o bless_a inhabitant_n of_o those_o most_o glorious_a region_n to_o converse_v with_o they_o free_o without_o any_o folly_n or_o disguise_n or_o those_o passion_n which_o spoil_v the_o comfort_n and_o disturb_v the_o peace_n of_o mankind_n nay_o when_o we_o enter_v into_o our_o master_n joy_n we_o shall_v have_v cause_n to_o say_v as_o the_o queen_n of_o sheba_n of_o the_o glory_n of_o solomon_n that_o not_o the_o half_a of_o it_o be_v ever_o tell_v we_o and_o as_o heaven_n be_v a_o exceed_a so_o it_o be_v a_o
