be_v only_o true_a peace_n and_o quietness_n to_o be_v find_v therefore_o our_o exercise_n shall_v chief_o stand_v in_o this_o to_o expel_v this_o enemy_n and_o monster_n sin_n and_o to_o possess_v

of_o christ_n be_v our_o only_a joy_n &_o the_o shame_n of_o christ_n be_v our_o only_a honour_n hereby_o we_o perceive_v the_o great_a glory_n that_o the_o lord_n have_v call_v we_o to_o that_o not_o

not_o to_o be_v find_v in_o they_o the_o three_o effect_n whereby_o we_o may_v know_v that_o the_o soul_n live_v be_v the_o love_n of_o god_n and_o hatred_n of_o evil_n where_o this_o love_n be_v

from_o he_o so_o it_o strike_v upward_o to_o he_o again_o and_o be_v it_o not_o good_a reason_n and_o why_o let_v thy_o heart_n fix_v thy_o love_n as_o long_o as_o thou_o will_v upon_o the_o

this_o dolour_n the_o apostle_n 2._o corinth_n 7._o set_v down_o two_o sort_n of_o dolour_n repentance_n two_o sort_n of_o sorrow_n or_o dolour_n raise_v in_o the_o heart_n of_o man_n he_o call_v the_o first_o sort_n a_o worldly_a dolour_n or_o sadness_n he_o call_v it_o no_o doubt_n a_o worldly_a dolour_n and_o sadness_n because_o it_o be_v conceive_v for_o a_o worldly_a respect_n because_o it_o be_v conceive_v for_o a_o worldly_a and_o fleshly_a end_n when_o a_o man_n begin_v to_o be_v sorrowful_a for_o the_o thing_n that_o be_v do_v not_o so_o much_o for_o god_n cause_n or_o for_o any_o reverence_n he_o bear_v to_o the_o infinite_a majesty_n of_o god_n who_o he_o have_v offend_v as_o for_o the_o present_a pain_n that_o be_v upon_o his_o body_n for_o the_o present_a grief_n that_o be_v in_o his_o conscience_n or_o for_o any_o worldly_a or_o fleshly_a respect_n in_o this_o case_n where_o god_n be_v always_o neglect_v where_o the_o sorrow_n be_v not_o for_o god_n cause_n that_o be_v a_o worldly_a and_o a_o earthly_a sorrow_n and_o this_o kind_n of_o sorrow_n i_o can_v call_v no_o other_o thing_n but_o a_o blind_a terror_n vexation_n and_o anguish_n of_o conscience_n i_o call_v it_o blind_a in_o these_o respect_n terror_n first_o by_o reason_n they_o see_v no_o issue_n for_o their_o estate_n no_o doubt_n be_v the_o more_o tolerable_a if_o they_o see_v any_o hope_n of_o ease_n that_o they_o may_v have_v some_o rest_n and_o ease_v in_o their_o conscience_n but_o they_o be_v always_o blind_a &_o all_o sight_n of_o rest_n be_v take_v from_o such_o a_o conscience_n it_o be_v blind_a also_o in_o respect_n they_o know_v not_o from_o who_o it_o come_v who_o it_o be_v that_o strike_v they_o with_o this_o that_o they_o may_v come_v unto_o he_o by_o amendment_n they_o see_v not_o that_o it_o come_v from_o god_n and_o as_o they_o be_v ignorant_a of_o this_o they_o be_v ignorant_a of_o the_o cause_n that_o procure_v it_o they_o be_v ignorant_a that_o their_o own_o sin_n and_o wickedness_n be_v the_o cause_n that_o procure_v it_o so_o the_o ignorance_n of_o these_o three_o make_v it_o to_o be_v a_o blind_a torment_n and_o this_o kind_n of_o torment_n which_o i_o call_v a_o blind_a torment_n either_o it_o be_v increase_v in_o a_o high_a degree_n or_o else_o it_o be_v mitigate_v that_o they_o may_v suffer_v it_o when_o it_o be_v increase_v into_o a_o high_a degree_n desperation_n be_v the_o end_n of_o it_o and_o it_o make_v they_o as_o judas_n do_v to_o lay_v hand_n on_o themselves_o sometime_o again_o it_o be_v not_o so_o increase_v but_o it_o be_v mitigate_v that_o they_o may_v bear_v it_o and_o then_o by_o piece_n &_o piece_n it_o vanish_v and_o so_o soon_o as_o it_o depart_v so_o soon_o depart_v their_o sorrow_n and_o their_o tear_n and_o at_o the_o departure_n of_o their_o pain_n as_o their_o tear_n depart_v so_o return_v they_o to_o the_o puddle_n out_o of_o which_o they_o come_v as_o the_o sow_n do_v and_o to_o the_o same_o vomit_n which_o they_o spew_v out_o as_o the_o dog_n do_v so_o this_o dolour_n and_o torment_n turn_v not_o the_o heart_n it_o alter_v not_o the_o soul_n but_o move_v the_o soul_n for_o the_o present_a &_o that_o by_o reason_n of_o the_o pain_n and_o if_o the_o pain_n be_v away_o they_o will_v return_v to_o the_o same_o sin_n wherein_o they_o offend_v god_n oft_o before_o as_o greedy_o as_o ever_o they_o do_v so_o that_o they_o mourn_v not_o for_o the_o sin_n but_o for_o the_o presence_n of_o the_o pain_n the_o example_n of_o this_o we_o have_v in_o esau_n he_o weep_v bitter_o for_o a_o while_n so_o long_o as_o he_o feel_v any_o dolour_n but_o after_o that_o the_o dolour_n be_v remove_v he_o go_v back_o to_o his_o old_a sin_n again_o and_o what_o do_v he_o he_o address_v himself_o to_o anger_v his_o father_n worse_o than_o ever_o he_o do_v and_o special_o in_o choose_v of_o his_o wife_n which_o testify_v that_o his_o dolour_n be_v but_o for_o a_o worldly_a respect_n so_o i_o say_v this_o worldly_a dolour_n be_v either_o conceive_v for_o the_o present_a pain_n and_o torment_n that_o be_v upon_o the_o conscience_n as_o we_o have_v a_o example_n in_o cain_n for_o in_o his_o repentance_n wherefore_o sorrow_v he_o not_o that_o he_o have_v offend_v god_n not_o that_o he_o have_v displease_v so_o gracious_a a_o father_n but_o for_o the_o greatness_n of_o his_o pain_n and_o cry_v out_o my_o pain_n be_v great_a than_o i_o can_v suffer_v my_o iniquity_n by_o the_o which_o i_o understand_v this_o pain_n either_o my_o pain_n must_v be_v make_v less_o or_o i_o be_o not_o able_a to_o bear_v it_o so_o i_o say_v this_o kind_n of_o sorrow_n be_v either_o conceive_v for_o the_o present_a pain_n or_o for_o a_o worldly_a and_o civil_a respect_n sorrow_n beside_o this_o sorrow_n therefore_o there_o be_v a_o godly_a sorrow_n which_o the_o apostle_n also_o set_v down_o in_o that_o same_o seven_o chapter_n and_o this_o godly_a sorrow_n be_v a_o earnest_a sorrow_n a_o true_a sorrow_n not_o feign_v nor_o counterfeit_a and_o as_o it_o be_v true_a and_o earnest_a so_o it_o be_v conceive_v not_o so_o much_o for_o the_o present_a pain_n &_o torment_n that_o be_v upon_o the_o mind_n and_o conscience_n as_o no_o doubt_n the_o pain_n &_o torment_n that_o be_v upon_o their_o soul_n move_v they_o to_o it_o but_o it_o be_v not_o so_o much_o conceive_v for_o any_o present_a pain_n as_o for_o god_n own_o cause_n that_o they_o have_v offend_v so_o gracious_a a_o god_n who_o be_v so_o love_v so_o merciful_a and_o have_v such_o pity_n and_o compassion_n upon_o the_o multitude_n of_o their_o sin_n and_o therefore_o they_o set_v aside_o all_o creature_n forget_v creature_n although_o against_o they_o also_o they_o have_v offend_v and_o they_o run_v to_o god_n only_o seek_v mercy_n for_o their_o sin_n at_o he_o only_o and_o put_v their_o trust_n in_o he_o only_o so_o you_o see_v david_n psal_n 51._o as_o if_o he_o have_v offend_v none_o in_o the_o world_n but_o god_n only_o he_o turn_v to_o the_o majesty_n of_o the_o live_a god_n and_o say_v against_o thou_o against_o thou_o only_o have_v i_o sin_v and_o do_v evil_a in_o thy_o sight_n now_o there_o be_v no_o doubt_n but_o he_o have_v offend_v against_o the_o man_n who_o he_o slay_v against_o the_o wife_n of_o the_o man_n who_o he_o have_v defile_v yet_o
