14.3_o for_o here_o four_o thing_n may_v be_v observe_v first_o it_o must_v be_v a_o dead_a calf_n to_o note_v that_o all_o thanksgiving_n must_v proceed_v from_o humble_a and_o mortify_a mind_n and_o

enough_o to_o lay_v the_o calf_n on_o the_o altar_n but_o fire_n must_v be_v put_v to_o it_o to_o note_n that_o the_o bare_a throw_v out_o of_o word_n of_o thankfulness_n though_o in_o the_o name_n of_o christ_n will_v not_o serve_v unless_o we_o do_v also_o get_v some_o feel_a ardency_n and_o zeal_n to_o burn_v the_o sacrifice_n three_o we_o must_v lay_v our_o hand_n on_o the_o head_n of_o

attribute_v the_o glory_n and_o praise_n of_o god_n to_o the_o mean_n or_o second_o cause_n thus_o of_o thankfulness_n in_o the_o general_a but_o that_o which_o be_v here_o intend_a other_o be_v that_o we_o shall_v give_v thanks_n for_o other_o as_o well_o as_o for_o ourselves_o which_o be_v not_o a_o courtesy_n but_o a_o duty_n this_o duty_n of_o praise_v god_n for_o other_o grow_v exceed_o commendable_a if_o we_o can_v exercise_v it_o in_o these_o particular_n trial_n first_o if_o we_o can_v give_v thanks_n for_o those_o blessing_n upon_o other_o which_o the_o world_n account_v

may_v find_v reason_n to_o give_v thanks_n we_o may_v find_v mercy_n in_o any_o misery_n yea_o it_o be_v a_o singular_a mercy_n to_o have_v a_o hart_n to_o pray_v and_o to_o have_v so_o many_o large_a
