why_o god_n command_v they_o to_o sacrifice_v flesh_n for_o the_o sacrifice_n of_o my_o offering_n here_o seem_v to_o be_v a_o accusation_n not_o that_o they_o sacrifice_v but_o that_o they_o

and_o that_o they_o can_v take_v content_a in_o thus_o i_o find_v interpreter_n carry_v it_o and_o i_o very_o think_v it_o to_o be_v the_o meaning_n of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n so_o that_o from_o

and_o part_n of_o that_o duty_n god_n require_v and_o we_o show_v respect_n to_o god_n in_o it_o and_o there_o be_v another_o part_n wherein_o we_o enjoy_v ourselves_o now_o such_o kind_n of_o duty_n as_o these_o be_v man_n can_v be_v content_a well_o enough_o withal_o but_o the_o truth_n be_v that_o part_n which_o concern_v themselves_o do_v eat_v out_o all_o the_o true_a devotion_n unto_o god_n although_o the_o worship_n of_o god_n be_v pretend_v yet_o self-respect_n they_o be_v that_o the_o heart_n be_v most_o upon_o fast_n as_o for_o instance_n in_o keep_v of_o festival_n they_o like_v they_o well_o enough_o and_o we_o do_v not_o read_v so_o much_o charge_n for_o the_o keep_n of_o they_o because_o there_o be_v something_o agreeable_a to_o the_o flesh_n but_o now_o for_o the_o day_n of_o their_o fast_n say_v god_n whosoever_o afflict_v not_o his_o soul_n that_o soul_n shall_v be_v cut_v off_o they_o have_v not_o so_o much_o mind_n to_o that_o in_o the_o ten_o day_n of_o the_o

be_v it_o be_v the_o belly_n that_o be_v the_o thing_n and_o their_o sport_n and_o the_o licence_n to_o the_o flesh_n that_o they_o aim_v at_o keep_v i_o warrant_v you_o let_v the_o time_n as_o now_o it_o fall_v out_o be_v the_o time_n of_o a_o fast_a it_o will_v not_o be_v so_o much_o regard_v and_o for_o any_o man_n to_o keep_v a_o feastival_n when_o god_n by_o his_o providence_n call_v to_o fast_v certain_o that_o man_n regard_v his_o own_o belly_n rather_o than_o god_n and_o that_o by_o which_o all_o these_o feastival_n be_v uphold_v it_o be_v because_o that_o together_o with_o a_o seem_a kind_n of_o religion_n the_o belly_n get_v so_o much_o but_o now_o such_o duty_n where_o god_n be_v serve_v and_o nature_n deny_v they_o be_v great_a testimony_n that_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n be_v in_o our_o heart_n in_o the_o performance_n of_o they_o when_o we_o can_v offer_v up_o our_o burn_a offering_n whole_o to_o god_n and_o ourselves_o deny_v they_o be_v testimony_n that_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n be_v in_o we_o simile_n as_o i_o will_v give_v you_o a_o instance_n in_o the_o story_n of_o the_o first_o of_o king_n the_o 13._o you_o read_v of_o the_o lion_n that_o do_v slay_v the_o prophet_n that_o go_v contrary_a to_o god_n commandment_n 13_o now_o it_o be_v a_o special_a end_n of_o god_n that_o send_v the_o lion_n to_o slay_v he_o and_o that_o god_n will_v give_v a_o testimony_n that_o the_o lion_n do_v not_o come_v of_o a_o chance_n to_o fall_v upon_o the_o prophet_n and_o kill_v he_o therefore_o the_o text_n observe_v that_o the_o lion_n stand_v by_o the_o

that_o it_o be_v mere_o from_o god_n what_o the_o lion_n do_v so_o when_o any_o man_n shall_v perform_v a_o duty_n mere_o for_o god_n and_o in_o that_o duty_n shall_v deny_v himself_o shall_v be_v
