it_o the_o word_n of_o a_o king_n be_v much_o and_o of_o great_a might_n then_o how_o weighty_a be_v the_o word_n that_o come_v from_o the_o king_n of_o king_n heaven_n and_o earth_n shall_v perish_v ere_o one_o jote_n of_o that_o word_n perish_v or_o fall_v to_o the_o ground_n and_o as_o he_o forget_v not_o so_o he_o will_v have_v it_o call_v to_o the_o remembrance_n not_o only_o of_o the_o godly_a but_o also_o of_o the_o wicked_a but_o mark_v the_o difference_n when_o he_o bring_v it_o to_o the_o elect_v memory_n h●e_n bring_v it_o ever_o with_o great_a joy_n as_o he_o do_v to_o these_o woman_n but_o as_o to_o the_o wicked_a it_o be_v ever_o a_o doleful_a and_o woeful_a remembrance_n with_o pain_n and_o grief_n and_o this_o be_v no_o small_a part_n and_o cause_n of_o the_o pain_n of_o hell_n that_o all_o the_o word_n which_o god_n speak_v to_o they_o whilst_o they_o live_v and_o which_o they_o contemn_v shall_v be_v bring_v to_o their_o memory_n that_o book_n of_o remembrance_n shall_v be_v hold_v ever_o before_o their_o eye_n that_o there_o they_o may_v see_v and_o read_v all_o the_o wicked_a work_n that_o they_o have_v do_v in_o their_o life_n yea_o the_o least_o evil_a word_n shall_v be_v lay_v to_o their_o charge_n and_o then_o the_o conscience_n shall_v stand_v up_o and_o accuse_v they_o everlasting_o no_o if_o thou_o be_v out_o with_o christ_n i_o say_v to_o thou_o terrible_a shall_v that_o sight_n be_v that_o thou_o shall_v see_v for_o the_o least_o evil_a thought_n shall_v be_v lay_v to_o thy_o charge_n let_v be_v evil_a deed_n and_o that_o forgetfulness_n of_o the_o word_n of_o god_n whilst_o thou_o live_v shall_v be_v a_o great_a part_n of_o thy_o pain_n and_o grief_n but_o the_o forgetfulness_n of_o the_o godly_a shall_v be_v hide_v as_o all_o the_o rest_n of_o their_o sin_n shall_v be_v hide_v in_o he_o and_o in_o that_o blood_n they_o shall_v be_v count_v as_o clean_o as_o if_o they_o have_v never_o sin_v nor_o have_v forget_v god_n word_n thus_o far_o for_o the_o part_n of_o the_o angel_n now_o i_o return_v to_o the_o woman_n when_o the_o angel_n have_v speak_v and_o inform_v they_o of_o the_o resurrection_n they_o return_v and_o tell_v to_o the_o apostle_n what_o they_o have_v hear_v and_o see_v mark_v this_o lesson_n they_o can_v keep_v it_o within_o their_o breast_n but_o they_o will_v communicate_v it_o to_o other_o they_o will_v tell_v the_o apostle_n brethren_n after_o that_o once_o a_o man_n or_o a_o woman_n have_v conceive_v that_o spiritual_a joy_n all_o the_o world_n will_v not_o hold_v their_o tongue_n put_v they_o in_o a_o fire_n they_o can_v but_o speak_v of_o it_o many_o martyr_n have_v prove_v this_o to_o be_v true_a if_o it_o be_v but_o a_o woman_n she_o must_v preach_v it_o to_o other_o &_o i_o say_v more_o if_o thou_o have_v not_o pleasure_v one_o time_n or_o other_o to_o speak_v with_o joy_n of_o christ_n to_o other_o to_o speak_v of_o his_o passion_n and_o resurrection_n thou_o never_o hear_v with_o joy_n we_o all_o have_v pleasure_n enough_o to_o talk_v with_o joy_n of_o vain_a and_o profane_a tale_n but_o of_o that_o pleasure_n of_o pleasure_n little_a or_o no_o delight_n have_v we_o to_o speak_v i_o condemn_v not_o only_o the_o world_n but_o also_o the_o child_n of_o god_n and_o myself_o with_o the_o first_o alas_o too_o little_a pleasure_n have_v we_o in_o our_o heart_n to_o speak_v of_o christ_n and_o his_o resurrection_n but_o to_o who_o go_v they_o go_v they_o to_o tell_v the_o wicked_a people_n no_o that_o people_n be_v not_o worthy_a of_o it_o they_o steal_v in_o to_o the_o apostle_n and_o they_o who_o love_v christ_n who_o be_v lurk_v in_o jerusalem_n so_o the_o lesson_n be_v this_o a_o man_n that_o find_v joy_n will_v not_o communicate_v it_o to_o the_o profane_a man_n he_o will_v know_v well_o that_o he_o communicate_v it_o to_o such_o one_o as_o will_v have_v joy_n with_o he_o if_o any_o man_n be_v sad_a you_o see_v they_o will_v not_o communicate_v it_o but_o to_o they_o that_o will_v be_v sad_a with_o they_o so_o it_o be_v with_o joy_n they_o will_v not_o tell_v to_o every_o man_n the_o joy_n but_o to_o such_o as_o will_v have_v joy_n with_o they_o look_v the_o twelve_o chapter_n to_o the_o roman_n and_o the_o fifteen_o verse_n he_o wish_v they_o to_o rejoice_v with_o they_o that_o rejoice_v and_o to_o be_v sad_a with_o they_o who_o be_v sad_a mark_v this_o thing_n also_o be_v not_o this_o joy_n a_o precious_a thing_n nothing_o so_o precious_a in_o the_o world_n as_o joy_n and_o marvel_v you_o not_o that_o they_o shall_v be_v so_o liberal_a of_o it_o and_o if_o thou_o have_v all_o the_o world_n it_o be_v nothing_o in_o respect_n of_o this_o joy_n and_o yet_o they_o be_v liberal_a of_o it_o paul_n rom._n

together_o they_o can_v minister_v this_o joy_n one_o to_o another_o so_o in_o a_o word_n communication_n of_o joy_n shall_v not_o impair_v but_o it_o shall_v enlarge_v the_o joy_n in_o thou_o whereto_o shall_v one_o stand_v up_o to_o preach_v christ_n but_o that_o by_o his_o joy_n he_o may_v minister_v joy_n to_o they_o that_o hear_v he_o now_o the_o lord_n grant_v that_o both_o preacher_n and_o hearer_n may_v find_v in_o their_o heart_n this_o joy_n which_o be_v in_o christ_n now_o i_o go_v forward_o as_o they_o go_v in_o the_o part_n where_o the_o apostle_n lurk_v they_o find_v before_o they_o that_o first_o company_n of_o woman_n who_o have_v return_v from_o the_o sepulchre_n marry_o magdalene_n and_o marie_n the_o mother_n of_o james_n and_o salome_n and_o as_o they_o

shall_v have_v come_v to_o the_o woman_n to_o have_v tell_v they_o of_o the_o resurrection_n of_o christ_n when_o he_o send_v so_o woman_n after_o woman_n it_o testify_v that_o they_o be_v in_o a_o dead_a security_n and_o so_o it_o testify_v a_o great_a mercy_n of_o the_o lord_n who_o will_v not_o let_v they_o sleep_v in_o that_o carnal_a security_n brethren_n this_o same_o mercy_n of_o god_n towards_o his_o own_o abide_v as_o yet_o for_o in_o we_o be_v nothing_o but_o sleep_v and_o if_o thou_o feel_v it_o not_o thou_o feel_v nothing_o pastor_n people_n and_o all_o sleep_n in_o security_n as_o the_o apostle_n do_v and_o i_o say_v to_o thou_o that_o if_o the_o lord_n will_v let_v thou_o alone_o and_o will_v send_v to_o thou_o no_o witness_n to_o waken_v thou_o and_o to_o say_v to_o thou_o sinner_n wake_n and_o arise_v no_o there_o be_v none_o of_o we_o but_o we_o will_v sleep_v to_o death_n so_o look_v to_o the_o lord_n mercy_n in_o this_o thy_o misery_n he_o send_v man_n to_o

like_v of_o by_o many_o &_o that_o sundry_a hear_n that_o they_o be_v in_o hand_n long_v to_o see_v they_o come_v to_o light_n we_o have_v take_v some_o pain_n in_o revise_v &_o correct_v they_o not_o

yea_o and_o at_o the_o first_o time_n after_o that_o upon_o your_o request_n sir_n we_o take_v pain_n upon_o they_o we_o find_v such_o hardness_n &_o imperfection_n &_o that_o his_o own_o phrase_n &_o

more_o than_o matter_n for_o there_o be_v here_o a_o easy_a method_n with_o a_o familiar_a stile_n condescend_v to_o the_o capacity_n of_o the_o mean_a &_o answerable_a to_o the_o matter_n entreat_v to_o wit_n the_o cross_n of_o christ_n which_o refuse_v to_o be_v decore_v with_o humane_a eloquence_n that_o y_o e_o matter_n be_v not_o obscure_v by_o the_o stile_n but_o may_v appear_v above_o it_o as_o oft_o time_o m._n rollocke_n himself_o be_v wont_a to_o speak_v yea_o albeit_o it_o may_v be_v that_o the_o stile_n in_o some_o few_o of_o the_o first_o sermon_n be_v somewhat_o hard_a and_o
