sorrow_n for_o sin_n 2._o confession_n of_o its_o and_o 3._o aversation_n from_o it_o for_o the_o first_o 1._o the_o evil_a of_o sin_n be_v never_o so_o well_o discern_v as_o in_o its_o effect_n it_o be_v sweet_a in_o the_o mouth_n but_o bitter_a in_o the_o belly_n and_o there_o be_v no_o great_a evidence_n of_o its_o vileness_n and_o malignity_n then_o that_o we_o have_v in_o the_o suffering_n of_o our_o lord_n which_o be_v set_v before_o we_o in_o the_o holy_a sacrament_n and_o certain_o sin_n must_v needs_o be_v a_o accurse_a thing_n say_v the_o consider_v communicant_a that_o the_o

which_o we_o have_v at_o the_o lord_n table_n we_o see_v there_o that_o it_o be_v a_o abuse_n of_o the_o great_a and_o most_o tender_a goodness_n and_o there_o be_v nothing_o that_o more_o affect_v

this_o 2_o follow_v confession_n which_o be_v one_o expression_n of_o these_o the_o apprehension_n of_o a_o angry_a majesty_n drive_v a_o sinner_n to_o desperation_n and_o prevent_v his_o confession_n when_o the_o lord_n ask_v the_o man_n in_o the_o gospel_n with_o some_o severity_n how_o come_v thou_o hither_o not_o have_v a_o wedding_n garment_n he_o be_v speechless_a terror_n beget_v stupify_a

the_o seal_n upon_o the_o lip_n they_o invite_v supplication_n and_o beget_v confession_n and_o therefore_o the_o sacrament_n which_o be_v a_o memorial_n of_o the_o great_a sweet_a and_o free_a

the_o same_o way_n the_o top_n and_o perfection_n of_o repentance_n be_v to_o turn_v from_o our_o evil_a way_n god_n invite_v his_o people_n to_o this_o by_o the_o argument_n that_o be_v most_o
