and_o what_o shall_v we_o think_v of_o the_o word_n of_o our_o lord_n luke_n 6.21_o bless_a be_v you_o that_o weep_v and_o you_o that_o mourn_v and_o woe_n to_o you_o that_o laugh_v now_o it_o be_v

those_o thought_n and_o spirit_n and_o that_o time_n that_o shall_v be_v lay_v out_o upon_o so_o serious_a and_o great_a thing_n as_o reconciliation_n to_o god_n pardon_v of_o sin_n newness_n of_o

that_o be_v above_o and_o in_o eternity_n when_o sorrow_n that_o dispose_v to_o strong_a and_o serious_a inquiry_n become_v sorrow_n after_o and_o according_a to_o god_n oh_o how_o excellent_o do_v it_o work_v how_o do_v man_n search_v 3.40_o lam._n 3.40_o and_o try_v their_o way_n that_o they_o may_v turn_v to_o god_n now_o because_o of_o the_o order_n that_o god_n have_v place_v sorrow_n in_o to_o all_o these_o great_a effect_n therefore_o our_o lord_n pronounce_v a_o blessing_n upon_o weep_v and_o mourn_v for_o else_o he_o love_v our_o joy_n when_o it_o be_v spiritual_a he_o command_v to_o rejoice_v in_o the_o lord_n all_o way_n and_o again_o he_o say_v rejoice_v he_o speak_v many_o great_a thing_n 15.11_o john_n 15.11_o that_o our_o joy_n may_v be_v full_a that_o he_o may_v fill_v

a_o thing_n be_v it_o for_o though_o it_o cause_v thought_n and_o inquiry_n yet_o it_o be_v only_o how_o to_o be_v rid_v of_o the_o worldly_a cause_n of_o sorrow_n and_o it_o turn_v only_o to_o

it_o be_v in_o a_o rage_n and_o fly_v out_o too_o often_o against_o god_n and_o providence_n and_o so_o it_o work_v death_n it_o begin_v that_o hatred_n of_o god_n that_o blasphemy_n and_o rage_n that_o be_v in_o hell_n or_o if_o it_o do_v not_o thus_o it_o be_v a_o sullen_a despondent_a unactive_a state_n of_o mind_n that_o shut_v and_o seal_v up_o all_o activity_n like_o the_o night_n

be_v the_o cause_n and_o occasion_n of_o such_o sorrow_n because_o that_o great_a self-love_n the_o force_n of_o that_o law_n of_o self-preservation_n be_v so_o strong_a upon_o we_o that_o see_v sorrow_n be_v a_o affection_n that_o stand_v in_o a_o enmity_n to_o our_o peace_n comfort_n and_o enjoyment_n and_o to_o our_o life_n itself_o if_o it_o be_v extreme_a or_o too_o long_o continue_v we_o therefore_o come_v off_o from_o what_o be_v the_o occasion_n or_o that_o give_v reason_n to_o our_o sorrow_n though_o we_o have_v exceed_o love_v it_o before_o this_o we_o find_v in_o all_o
