wonder_n if_o the_o city_n be_v take_v though_o never_o so_o strong_a if_o it_o grow_v once_o secure_a no_o wonder_n if_o the_o world_n be_v enter_v and_o man_n be_v grow_v more_o worldly_a and_o if_o

so_o much_o as_o say_v where_o be_v the_o lord_n that_o have_v do_v this_o for_o we_o but_o yet_o the_o lord_n question_n his_o people_n for_o this_o what_o iniquity_n have_v you_o find_v in_o i_o which_o question_v you_o can_v answer_v without_o grief_n here_o or_o confusion_n another_o day_n you_o that_o be_v the_o lord_n often_o have_v hear_v this_o complaint_n for_o this_o may_v be_v your_o

you_o have_v but_o long_o sleep_v this_o may_v be_v your_o condition_n for_o a_o time_n but_o you_o can_v continue_v so_o for_o ever_o if_o you_o be_v the_o lord_n but_o if_o you_o do_v continue_v so_o especial_o without_o bemoan_v this_o unto_o the_o lord_n it_o be_v a_o question_n whether_o ever_o there_o be_v that_o oil_n in_o your_o vessel_n which_o other_o have_v when_o not_o only_o a_o man_n act_n grow_v worse_o but_o the_o very_a spirit_n of_o a_o man_n degenerate_v when_o not_o only_o the_o leaf_n of_o the_o vine_n fall_v but_o the_o vine_n itself_o grow_v degenerate_a and_o

mesheck_n but_o base_a in_o zion_n to_o be_v then_o worst_a when_o the_o lord_n be_v best_a use_v 3_o hence_o see_v one_o reason_n why_o the_o lord_n pursue_v many_o a_o soul_n with_o inward_a terror_n and_o outward_a sorrow_n those_o that_o be_v fast_o asleep_a because_o soft_a speech_n can_v awaken_v they_o hence_o we_o lay_v our_o hand_n upon_o they_o and_o sometime_o knock_v they_o because_o this_o be_v the_o way_n to_o awaken_v they_o and_o then_o they_o hear_v so_o the_o word_n and_o spirit_n speak_v to_o a_o man_n but_o such_o soft_a still_a wind_n rock_v they_o asleep_o rather_o than_o awaken_v they_o hence_o the_o lord_n lay_v his_o iron_n hand_n upon_o a_o man_n and_o knock_v by_o blow_n and_o now_o when_o affliction_n be_v upon_o you_o now_o you_o can_v hear_v

sleep_v it_o be_v easy_a to_o awaken_v out_o of_o natural_a sleep_n but_o very_o hard_o out_o of_o spiritual_a security_n all_o the_o terror_n of_o god_n on_o jonah_n within_o and_o without_o be_v

and_o terror_n or_o outward_a sorrow_n oh_o consider_v then_o if_o the_o lord_n do_v meet_v with_o thou_o consider_v thy_o own_o security_n thou_o have_v be_v in_o or_o be_v apt_a to_o fall_v into_o
