be_v wisdom_n to_o remember_v our_o latter_a end_n the_o wise_a among_o the_o heathen_a be_v wont_a to_o say_v there_o shall_v be_v nothing_o but_o a_o meditation_n of_o death_n that_o be_v a_o wise_a man_n though_o the_o course_n of_o his_o life_n shall_v be_v still_o fit_v and_o prepare_v himself_o for_o death_n and_o shall_v christian_n ●me_v behind_o they_o it_o be_v a_o wise_a speech_n of_o peter_n to_o our_o saviour_n lord_n whether_o shall_v we_o go_v thou_o have_v the_o word_n of_o eternal_a life_n as_o if_o he_o shall_v say_v there_o be_v no_o motive_n to_o that_o sure_o we_o will_v not_o leave_v thou_o therefore_o i_o say_v consider_v here_o we_o be_v but_o tenant_n at_o will_n we_o may_v be_v turn_v out_o of_o door_n to_o morrow_n therefore_o let_v this_o be_v a_o motive_n to_o win_v to_o christ_n you_o shall_v have_v life_n but_o you_o will_v say_v i_o hope_v death_n be_v far_o off_o yet_o i_o have_v time_n enough_o well_o take_v heed_n thou_o be_v not_o deceive_v in_o that_o for_o there_o be_v a_o collusion_n there_o as_o the_o painter_n by_o collusion_n of_o colour_n make_v a_o thing_n seem_v far_o off_o when_o it_o be_v near_o at_o hand_n so_o we_o by_o our_o folly_n and_o vanity_n our_o fancy_n mis-apprehending_a of_o thing_n we_o look_v on_o death_n as_o far_o off_o when_o it_o may_v be_v it_o be_v at_o our_o heel_n at_o the_o next_o door_n thou_o know_v not_o how_o soon_o thou_o may_v meet_v with_o it_o therefore_o say_v not_o it_o be_v far_o off_o but_o think_v with_o thyself_o go_v sit_v alone_o but_o a_o little_a time_n together_o and_o then_o think_v with_o thyself_o i_o must_v die_v it_o be_v appoint_v to_o i_o as_o to_o all_o man_n once_o to_o die_v consider_v if_o a_o man_n may_v die_v twice_o or_o thrice_o perhaps_o he_o will_v be_v ready_a he_o will_v be_v prepare_v but_o consider_v thou_o must_v die_v but_o once_o if_o thou_o be_v not_o prepare_v there_o be_v not_o a_o second_o opportunity_n and_o then_o consider_v thy_o soul_n be_v immortal_a in_o another_o place_n it_o must_v live_v for_o ever_o and_o then_o remember_v christ_n say_v thou_o shall_v have_v life_n if_o thou_o take_v he_o thou_o shall_v live_v for_o ever_o then_o thou_o will_v find_v it_o a_o exceed_a blessing_n worth_a the_o have_v it_o be_v that_o that_o may_v woo_v you_o and_o win_v you_o to_o come_v in_o and_o take_v christ_n to_o love_v he_o and_o to_o serve_v he_o and_o to_o obey_v he_o certain_o if_o you_o will_v not_o now_o be_v move_v with_o it_o yet_o when_o death_n shall_v come_v than_o you_o shall_v find_v that_o beyond_o all_o the_o treasure_n to_o have_v that_o white-stone_n with_o a_o new_a name_n in_o it_o that_o stone_n be_v a_o sign_n of_o absolution_n that_o a_o man_n be_v quit_v that_o his_o sin_n be_v forgive_v that_o he_o have_v interest_n in_o christ_n and_o eternity_n that_o eternal_a life_n be_v for_o he_o in_o heaven_n this_o be_v the_o first_o motive_n to_o win_v you_o to_o christ._n second_o if_o you_o will_v come_v into_o he_o you_o shall_v have_v all_o your_o debt_n pay_v you_o shall_v be_v under_o cover_n that_o be_v you_o shall_v have_v all_o your_o sin_n forgive_v that_o when_o the_o creditor_n come_v with_o a_o arrest_n with_o a_o judgement_n and_o execution_n you_o may_v be_v able_a to_o say_v no_o they_o be_v none_o of_o my_o debt_n go_v to_o my_o husband_n he_o must_v pay_v they_o and_o not_o i_o i_o say_v when_o you_o have_v christ_n when_o satan_n shall_v come_v and_o when_o sin_n shall_v come_v you_o may_v put_v they_o over_o to_o christ_n for_o now_o you_o be_v he_o and_o he_o be_v you_o he_o have_v take_v our_o debt_n on_o he_o be_v this_o a_o small_a thing_n psal._n 32.1_o say_v david_n blessed_n be_v the_o man_n who_o sin_n be_v forgive_v and_o who_o iniquity_n be_v cover_v mark_v bless_a be_v the_o man_n who_o sin_n be_v forgive_v perhaps_o if_o one_o of_o we_o shall_v seek_v a_o happy_a man_n we_o will_v say_v that_o he_o be_v a_o happy_a man_n that_o live_v in_o health_n and_o in_o wealth_n in_o credit_n and_o abundance_n of_o all_o thing_n he_o that_o have_v the_o favour_n of_o prince_n he_o that_o have_v some_o notable_a excellency_n to_o make_v he_o famous_a among_o man_n some_o such_o thing_n we_o take_v for_o happiness_n but_o when_o david_n come_v to_o look_v through_o the_o world_n and_o all_o the_o felicity_n in_o it_o oh_o say_v david_n he_o be_v a_o happy_a man_n that_o his_o sin_n be_v forgive_v and_o there_o be_v good_a reason_n for_o it_o because_o when_o our_o sin_n be_v forgive_v we_o be_v reconcile_v to_o god_n and_o god_n only_o can_v make_v man_n happy_a for_o wherein_o do_v happiness_n consist_v but_o in_o a_o freedom_n from_o all_o evil_a and_o in_o enjoy_v of_o all_o good_a you_o know_v this_o be_v happiness_n now_o sin_n be_v it_o not_o the_o first_o link_n in_o the_o chain_n of_o ill_n as_o the_o under-wheele_n in_o a_o clock_n or_o watch_n depend_v upon_o the_o first_o so_o all_o misery_n depend_v upon_o sin_n as_o the_o master-ill_a of_o all_o take_v away_o that_o and_o all_o the_o wheel_n stand_v still_o they_o move_v not_o a_o jot_n to_o do_v we_o the_o least_o hurt_n take_v away_o sin_n take_v away_o all_o this_o ill_a in_o sin_n be_v a_o bar_n and_o stop_v from_o we_o all_o good_a thing_n take_v away_o sin_n and_o you_o shall_v enjoy_v all_o that_o in_o abundance_n that_o your_o heart_n can_v desire_v if_o you_o have_v not_o your_o sin_n forgive_v what_o will_v it_o avail_v if_o you_o come_v to_o a_o prisoner_n and_o tell_v he_o you_o shall_v have_v the_o best_a lodging_n you_o shall_v have_v a_o palace_n you_o shall_v have_v orchard_n and_o garden_n to_o walk_v in_o you_o shall_v have_v gold_n and_o silver_n as_o much_o as_o you_o will_v desire_v you_o shall_v have_v honour_n put_v upon_o you_o will_v not_o he_o answer_v alas_o what_o will_v all_o this_o avail_n without_o a_o pardon_n so_o i_o say_v to_o man_n that_o magnify_v the_o thing_n of_o this_o world_n so_o much_o and_o remission_n of_o sin_n they_o think_v not_o of_o i_o say_v what_o be_v all_o this_o will_v it_o avail_v without_o a_o pardon_n no_o therefore_o this_o be_v a_o great_a motive_n to_o bring_v we_o into_o christ_n that_o our_o sin_n may_v be_v forgive_v therefore_o that_o great_a promise_n go_v of_o the_o messiah_n that_o when_o he_o shall_v come_v into_o the_o world_n he_o shall_v save_v his_o people_n from_o their_o sin_n and_o this_o be_v a_o mercy_n which_o though_o you_o may_v slight_v now_o in_o health_n and_o strength_n yet_o when_o the_o time_n come_v that_o god_n shall_v charge_v sin_n upon_o your_o conscience_n that_o they_o feel_v the_o weight_n and_o burden_n of_o it_o you_o shall_v find_v no_o mercy_n like_o to_o this_o that_o you_o may_v come_v to_o have_v your_o sin_n forgive_v then_o he_o that_o bring_v the_o glad_a tiding_n of_o peace_n his_o foot_n will_v be_v beautiful_a the_o thing_n be_v the_o same_o if_o we_o have_v heart_n to_o consider_v of_o it_o if_o we_o be_v poor_a in_o spirit_n if_o we_o know_v what_o sin_n be_v if_o we_o have_v ever_o feel_v the_o bitterness_n of_o satan_n yoke_n that_o we_o be_v weary_a of_o it_o we_o will_v come_v in_o and_o reckon_v it_o a_o great_a matter_n to_o have_v our_o sin_n forgive_v this_o be_v the_o second_o i_o shall_v prosecute_v the_o rest_n at_o some_o other_o time_n the_o

beseech_v you_o consider_v seriosu_o reckon_v nothing_o so_o sweet_a if_o this_o life_n be_v sweet_a that_o be_v but_o a_o span_n long_o be_v not_o abundance_n of_o life_n much_o sweet_a it_o be_v

the_o naturalist_n be_v deceive_v in_o that_o for_o a_o man_n have_v rather_o not_o to_o be_v than_o to_o be_v in_o misery_n and_o the_o soul_n in_o hell_n be_v immortal_a and_o therefore_o it_o be_v not_o immortality_n that_o we_o desire_v simple_o for_o death_n be_v not_o the_o extinguish_n of_o life_n but_o the_o misery_n of_o life_n and_o therefore_o where_o the_o scripture_n speak_v of_o the_o loss_n of_o the_o soul_n it_o be_v to_o be_v mean_v thus_o a_o man_n finger_n or_o his_o joint_n be_v lose_v when_o it_o be_v seize_v on_o by_o any_o incurable_a sore_n so_o when_o eternal_a

not_o immortality_n simple_o that_o we_o desire_v if_o we_o consider_v what_o it_o be_v but_o it_o be_v happiness_n it_o be_v such_o a_o life_n as_o be_v not_o only_o immortal_a but_o happy_a withal_o this_o life_n christ_n have_v promise_v we_o shall_v live_v and_o a_o happy_a life_n such_o as_o s._n paul_n express_v 2_o cor._n 5._o say_v he_o we_o desire_v not_o to_o be_v unclothe_v but_o to_o
