habit_n a_o man_n may_v free_v himself_o from_o his_o acquire_v corruption_n he_o may_v by_o care_n and_o industry_n of_o his_o own_o mortify_v his_o acquire_v depravation_n of_o nature_n as_o we_o read_v of_o many_o socrates_n and_o plato_n who_o by_o their_o wisdom_n and_o industry_n free_v themselves_o from_o the_o slavery_n of_o many_o sensual_a appetite_n and_o passion_n which_o their_o corrupt_a nature_n and_o evil_a company_n have_v lead_v they_o into_o and_o yet_o the_o natural_a corruption_n remain_v still_o thou_o think_v thou_o be_v convert_v because_o thou_o have_v overcome_v thy_o drunkenness_n but_o drunkenness_n be_v but_o a_o acquire_v corruption_n thou_o do_v get_v it_o by_o custom_n and_o may_v break_v it_o by_o custom_n and_o yet_o nature_n remain_v still_o unchanged_a 5._o the_o change_n of_o the_o heart_n chief_o appear_v in_o the_o change_n of_o the_o ultimate_a or_o utmost_a end_n as_o the_o pollution_n of_o the_o whole_a man_n and_o all_o his_o action_n moral_a civil_a and_o religious_a consist_v chief_o and_o appear_v in_o seek_v self_n or_o make_v ourselves_o our_o utmost_a end_n so_o our_o sanctification_n lie_v in_o this_o and_o appear_v chief_o in_o make_v god_n the_o ultimate_a end_n of_o all_o we_o do_v a_o man_n before_o he_o be_v sanctify_v desire_v god_n and_o christ_n only_o to_o keep_v his_o sore_n from_o ache_a for_o so_o i_o look_v upon_o all_o man_n make_v up_o of_o want_n if_o the_o body_n ache_v with_o disease_n and_o pain_n the_o stomach_n with_o hunger_n conscience_n for_o sin_n all_o their_o happiness_n lie_v in_o the_o ease_n thereof_o here_o lie_v their_o bliss_n they_o seek_v after_o god_n only_o as_o a_o physician_n to_o heal_v or_o cure_v they_o but_o not_o as_o the_o end_n of_o their_o cure_n the_o sick_a man_n send_v for_o the_o physician_n but_o his_o health_n and_o recovery_n be_v his_o end_n so_o do_v man_n before_o their_o conversion_n in_o their_o pang_n of_o conscience_n their_o affliction_n their_o want_n and_o necessity_n they_o seek_v to_o god_n and_o make_v use_n of_o god_n as_o a_o instrument_n but_o their_o ease_n and_o interest_n be_v their_o end_n jehu_n seek_v the_o lord_n but_o his_o last_o end_n be_v himself_o but_o when_o the_o heart_n be_v sanctify_v than_o god_n be_v their_o end_n instead_o of_o their_o lust_n and_o sin_n god_n be_v the_o only_a end_n in_o their_o eye_n instead_o of_o the_o riches_n or_o comfort_n of_o the_o world_n god_n be_v the_o object_n in_o their_o eye_n who_o have_v i_o in_o heaven_n but_o thou_o and_o 25._o psal_n 73._o 25._o there_o be_v

be_v the_o first_o principle_n of_o seek_v the_o lord_n the_o soul_n see_v all_o his_o good_a lay_v up_o in_o the_o lord_n more_o than_o in_o himself_o nay_o whole_o in_o the_o lord_n not_o at_o all_o

be_v all_o in_o thou_o and_o therefore_o the_o saint_n when_o they_o see_v their_o own_o vileness_n and_o the_o lord_n in_o his_o glory_n be_v so_o far_o from_o seek_v that_o they_o loathe_v themselves_o 2._o the_o soul_n slight_v the_o creature_n as_o vessel_n of_o mere_a vanity_n oh_o try_v yourselves_o then_o by_o this_o touchstone_n a_o carnal_a heart_n may_v cross_v his_o own_o
