as_o if_o he_o shall_v say_v why_o be_o i_o thus_o trouble_v in_o all_o my_o inward_a man_n in_o my_o soul_n why_o do_v the_o water_n come_v in_o unto_o my_o soul_n i._o e._n to_o my_o best_a and_o

so_o clear_o in_o the_o sunshine_n of_o this_o chap._n 6._o the_o sum_n of_o the_o expostulation_n and_o the_o reason_n of_o it_o i_o will_v a_o little_a touch_n upon_o these_o two_o head_n for_o the_o clear_o understand_v of_o this_o branch_n 1_o wherein_o do_v this_o expostulation_n or_o argue_v with_o our_o soul_n consist_v 2_o why_o christian_n cast_v down_o shall_v use_v it_o for_o the_o first_o you_o will_v say_v if_o it_o be_v our_o wisdom_n and_o shall_v be_v our_o care_n when_o cast_v down_o to_o argue_v the_o case_n with_o ourselves_o wherein_o do_v this_o argue_v consist_v now_o for_o this_o know_v that_o this_o expostulation_n do_v principal_o consist_v in_o three_o particular_n first_o in_o a_o solemn_a summon_n of_o the_o soul_n to_o give_v a_o account_n of_o its_o dejection_n we_o shall_v judge-like_a call_v our_o soul_n before_o we_o and_o demand_v what_o be_v the_o reason_n that_o it_o break_v the_o royal_a law_n of_o love_n which_o command_v we_o to_o rejoice_v always_o and_o it_o sleight_n christ_n command_n of_o not_o be_v trouble_v i_o know_v the_o sad_a heart_n be_v backward_o unto_o this_o but_o we_o must_v summon_v it_o solemn_o in_o the_o name_n of_o christ_n to_o give_v a_o account_n and_o that_o a_o faithful_a one_o why_o it_o be_v so_o sad_a and_o cast_v down_o we_o shall_v say_v come_v forth_o o_o my_o soul_n out_o of_o thy_o sad_a and_o solitary_a retirement_n and_o tell_v i_o plain_o the_o reason_n why_o thou_o be_v cast_v down_o and_o also_o the_o end_n that_o thou_o ayme_v at_o etc._n etc._n this_o be_v the_o first_o part_n or_o introduction_n to_o this_o argue_v the_o second_o be_v a_o due_a consideration_n of_o the_o cause_n or_o reason_n which_o the_o soul_n give_v for_o its_o dejection_n peradventure_o the_o cause_n may_v not_o be_v a_o cause_n the_o reason_n may_v not_o be_v rational_a or_o if_o it_o be_v a_o cause_n it_o may_v not_o be_v so_o great_a therefore_o we_o shall_v weigh_v what_o and_o how_o weighty_a it_o be_v as_o to_o instance_n sometime_o the_o soul_n say_v its_o deject_a for_o this_o cross_n or_o for_o that_o affliction_n for_o this_o fear_n and_o that_o fall_v for_o this_o corruption_n and_o that_o temptation_n etc._n etc._n now_o then_o the_o main_a part_n of_o this_o expostulation_n lie_v in_o our_o weigh_v and_o right_o state_v of_o the_o cause_n which_o the_o soul_n either_o have_v or_o think_v it_o have_v for_o its_o dejection_n then_o three_o this_o argue_v lie_v in_o do_v of_o what_o we_o be_v able_a to_o do_v to_o satisfy_v ourselves_o it_o be_v say_v of_o david_n that_o
