know_v not_o whether_o i_o shall_v have_v a_o opportunity_n to_o speak_v to_o you_o again_o from_o these_o word_n and_o see_v i_o have_v handle_v the_o two_o former_a part_n in_o this_o place_n i_o have_v a_o desire_n to_o finish_v my_o discourse_n from_o this_o text_n among_o you_o another_o reason_n be_v because_o i_o do_v find_v some_o familisticall_a spirit_n here_o that_o be_v trouble_v with_o what_o i_o deliver_v be_v enemy_n to_o that_o christ_n who_o come_v in_o the_o flesh_n and_o die_v on_o the_o cross_n &_o be_v raise_v from_o the_o dead_a and_o enemy_n to_o the_o doctrine_n of_o the_o resurrection_n which_o be_v to_o be_v wrought_v by_o his_o power_n and_o that_o you_o may_v see_v how_o little_a i_o regard_v the_o speech_n of_o these_o enemy_n of_o christ_n and_o the_o

i_o apprehend_v it_o may_v much_o further_o the_o work_n of_o the_o day_n for_o if_o we_o have_v remember_v god_n aright_o in_o our_o praise_n have_v make_v mention_n of_o his_o goodness_n to_o the_o land_n and_o nation_n we_o have_v do_v it_o spiritual_o and_o have_v more_o rejoice_v in_o spiritual_a then_o temporal_a mercy_n and_o if_o our_o joy_n shall_v end_v in_o rejoice_v only_o for_o temporal_a mercy_n we_o shall_v rejoice_v rather_o carnal_o then_o spiritual_o therefore_o have_v in_o the_o begin_n of_o the_o day_n rejoice_v for_o the_o mercy_n that_o god_n have_v show_v to_o the_o land_n i_o think_v i_o shall_v do_v well_o if_o i_o raise_v you_o in_o your_o spirit_n by_o what_o i_o shall_v speak_v from_o these_o word_n and_o from_o the_o sight_n of_o nationall_n mercy_n and_o temporal_a deliverance_n take_v occasion_n to_o draw_v your_o eye_n to_o behold_v by_o faith_n how_o you_o and_o all_o saint_n shall_v rejoice_v when_o you_o be_v deliver_v from_o all_o enemy_n at_o the_o resurrection_n that_o so_o i_o may_v sublimate_v your_o joy_n by_o carry_v you_o high_o in_o the_o spirit_n to_o rejoice_v in_o the_o spiritual_a thing_n speak_v of_o in_o the_o text_n awake_v and_o sing_v you_o know_v we_o express_v our_o joy_n by_o sing_v as_o we_o may_v gather_v from_o that_o place_n psal_n 126.1_o when_o the_o lord_n turn_v again_o the_o captivity_n of_o zion_n we_o be_v like_o they_o that_o dream_n then_o be_v our_o mouth_n fill_v with_o laughter_n and_o our_o tongue_n with_o sing_v sing_v in_o scripture_n be_v a_o expression_n of_o great_a joy_n if_o any_o

there_o be_v a_o unwillingness_n in_o they_o to_o leave_v their_o body_n therefore_o they_o have_v rather_o have_v immortality_n swallow_v up_o of_o life_n then_o to_o lay_v down_o their_o body_n in_o

put_v off_o the_o clothing_n of_o the_o flesh_n we_o observe_v in_o philosophy_n that_o there_o be_v a_o natural_a appetite_n in_o the_o soul_n or_o form_n to_o be_v unite_v to_o that_o body_n that_o
