much_o bewail_v the_o nature_n of_o their_o crime_n and_o the_o aggravate_v circumstance_n that_o do_v attend_v they_o henry_n weller_n in_o particular_a great_o condemn_v himself_o and_o say_v that_o his_o sin_n be_v great_a than_o the_o rest_n because_o commit_v against_o great_a light_n and_o knowledge_n they_o be_v the_o more_o earnest_a to_o have_v this_o publish_v because_o as_o they_o say_v it_o may_v not_o only_o by_o the_o blessing_n of_o god_n do_v good_a to_o their_o own_o soul_n but_o that_o it_o may_v be_v seasonable_a to_o all_o other_o hereafter_o who_o crime_n make_v they_o obnoxious_a to_o the_o same_o fate_n 1._o i_o beseech_v you_o consider_v the_o time_n past_a and_o the_o manner_n of_o your_o life_n how_o many_o day_n week_n month_n and_o year_n be_v pass_v over_o your_o head_n in_o which_o you_o have_v have_v no_o regard_n to_o the_o glory_n of_o god_n nor_o the_o salvation_n of_o your_o precious_a soul_n but_o have_v take_v pleasure_n in_o unrighteousness_n to_o the_o displease_v of_o a_o glorious_a god_n and_o the_o destroy_n of_o your_o own_o soul_n 2._o consider_v and_o call_v to_o mind_v the_o several_a sort_n of_o wickness_n you_o have_v be_v guilty_a of_o and_o have_v repeat_v many_o time_n over_o in_o the_o practice_n of_o they_o viz._n lie_v swear_v drunkenness_n uncleanness_n breach_n of_o the_o lord_n day_n and_o reject_v the_o mean_n of_o grace_n beside_o those_o abominable_a crime_n you_o be_v condemn_v for_o by_o the_o law_n of_o the_o land_n 3._o consider_v that_o all_o of_o these_o sin_n or_o any_o of_o they_o be_v damn_v to_o those_o that_o be_v guilty_a of_o they_o and_o therefore_o though_o some_o of_o you_o may_v plead_v that_o you_o be_v not_o actual_o guilty_a of_o all_o kind_n of_o wickedness_n yet_o your_o state_n be_v bad_a enough_o for_o it_o be_v write_v be_v that_o break_v the_o law_n of_o god_n in_o one_o point_n be_v guilty_a of_o all_o 4._o consider_v that_o it_o be_v much_o more_o your_o work_n and_o will_v be_v more_o profitable_a for_o your_o soul_n to_o lay_v to_o heart_n what_o you_o be_v guilty_a of_o than_o to_o please_v yourselves_o with_o what_o you_o be_v not_o actual_o guilty_a of_o for_o as_o much_o as_o the_o forbearance_n of_o some_o sin_n be_v not_o enough_o to_o save_v you_o but_o to_o be_v charge_v of_o as_o guilty_a of_o in_o any_o sin_n be_v enough_o to_o damn_v you_o 5._o consider_v that_o your_o wicked_a life_n and_o conversation_n be_v contrary_a to_o and_o have_v be_v in_o opposition_n of_o the_o good_a word_n of_o god_n the_o instruction_n of_o relation_n and_o friend_n the_o teach_n of_o your_o own_o conscience_n and_o good_a law_n of_o the_o land_n beside_o the_o many_o warning_n you_o have_v have_v from_o many_o that_o have_v go_v before_o you_o who_o have_v be_v bring_v to_o sorrow_n and_o shame_n by_o their_o wickedness_n in_o end_v their_o day_n to_o the_o great_a grief_n of_o their_o dear_a friend_n 6._o consider_v that_o it_o be_v the_o great_a mercy_n of_o god_n to_o you_o in_o forbear_v of_o you_o so_o long_o forasmuch_o as_o he_o may_v in_o justice_n a_o send_v you_o to_o hell_n long_o ago_o if_o he_o have_v deal_v with_o you_o according_a to_o your_o desert_n and_o so_o in_o stead_n of_o have_v a_o opportunity_n to_o weep_v and_o pray_v to_o god_n now_o you_o may_v have_v be_v in_o the_o torment_a flame_n out_o of_o which_o there_o be_v no_o deliverance_n 7._o consider_v that_o the_o time_n pass_v can_v be_v recall_v not_o a_o year_n not_o a_o month_n not_o a_o day_n no_o not_o one_o hour_n and_o the_o time_n you_o have_v to_o live_v be_v very_o short_a and_o therefore_o you_o ought_v so_o to_o number_v your_o day_n as_o to_o apply_v your_o heart_n to_o true_a wisdom_n which_o be_v to_o fear_v the_o lord_n for_o the_o fear_n of_o the_o lord_n be_v the_o begin_n of_o wisdom_n and_o the_o true_a fear_n of_o god_n be_v to_o hate_v sin_n o_o remember_v that_o eternity_n depend_v upon_o this_o little_a opportunity_n and_o therefore_o take_v heed_n you_o do_v not_o loose_v any_o moment_n of_o it_o for_o the_o good_a of_o your_o precious_a soul_n 8._o consider_v that_o sin_n have_v bern_v the_o cause_n of_o all_o the_o misery_n that_o ever_o come_v upon_o mankind_n sin_n turn_v adam_n out_o of_o paradise_n sin_n make_v cain_n cry_v out_o my_o punishment_n be_v great_a than_o i_o can_v bear_v sin_n destroy_v the_o world_n with_o water_n sin_n burn_v sodom_n and_o gomorah_n with_o fire_n and_o brimstone_n sin_n rend_v the_o kingdom_n of_o israel_n from_o saul_n and_o god_n give_v the_o kingdom_n to_o david_n a_o better_a man._n sin_n cause_v nebuchadnesar_n to_o go_v grase_v among_o the_o beast_n of_o the_o field_n and_o bring_v his_o noble_n from_o be_v companion_n of_o prince_n to_o be_v a_o prey_n for_o devour_a lion_n sin_n have_v destroy_v famous_a kingdom_n family_n and_o particular_a person_n yea_o sin_n cast_v some_o of_o the_o angel_n out_o of_o heaven_n into_o hell_n and_o sin_n will_v turn_v you_o out_o of_o this_o world_n into_o hell_n except_o you_o repent_v you_o shall_v all_o likewise_o perish_v consider_v the_o unspeakable_a love_n of_o god_n in_o send_v his_o only_a beget_v son_n into_o the_o world_n to_o be_v a_o ransom_n for_o captive_a soul_n a_o physician_n for_o sin-sick_a soul_n a_o reconciler_n for_o soul_n that_o have_v be_v enemy_n to_o god_n by_o wicked_a work_n a_o rest_n for_o weary_a soul_n food_n for_o hungry_a soul_n raiment_n for_o naked_a soul_n and_o a_o saviour_n to_o give_v pardon_n to_o criminal_a soul_n o_o how_o shall_v this_o melt_v and_o break_v your_o soul_n into_o sorrow_n and_o true_a contrition_n that_o ever_o you_o shall_v so_o sin_v and_o so_o long_a time_n against_o such_o a_o good_a god_n and_o such_o a_o precious_a christ_n 10._o consider_v that_o this_o precious_a jesus_n have_v perfect_o keep_v all_o that_o law_n of_o god_n which_o you_o have_v wicked_o break_v and_o he_o have_v suffer_v the_o severity_n of_o divine_a justice_n and_o thereby_o have_v satisfy_v divine_a requirement_n for_o and_o in_o the_o behalf_n of_o such_o poor_a miserable_a sinner_n as_o you_o be_v the_o just_a suffer_v for_o the_o unjust_a he_o be_v make_v a_o curse_n to_o redeem_v other_o from_o the_o curse_n of_o the_o law_n o_o this_o sweet_a jesus_n be_v cut_v off_o but_o not_o for_o himself_o he_o be_v strike_v and_o smite_v of_o god_n for_o the_o sin_n of_o other_o that_o by_o his_o stripe_n they_o may_v be_v heal_v 11._o consider_v that_o this_o very_a same_o jesus_n be_v now_o alive_a be_v raise_v from_o
