because_o they_o can_v spend_v when_o they_o shall_v and_o spare_v with_o discretion_n when_o the_o time_n be_v they_o be_v unthankful_a because_o they_o do_v not_o hearty_o thank_v god_n for_o his_o

must_v know_v this_o that_o the_o dear_a child_n of_o god_n for_o want_v of_o discretion_n do_v sometime_o a_o act_n w_z ch_z may_v be_v call_v covetous_a &_o yet_o not_o upon_o a_o covetous_a humour_n and_o a_o act_n that_o may_v be_v call_v prodigal_a and_o yet_o not_o upon_o a_o prodigal_a humour_n but_o for_o want_v of_o discretion_n at_o that_o time_n for_o there_o be_v none_o so_o discreet_a at_o all_o time_n that_o be_v not_o somewhat_o infect_v with_o either_o of_o these_o sin_n for_o we_o be_v infect_v with_o all_o sin_n and_o therefore_o god_n in_o great_a mercy_n to_o man_n make_v the_o sabbath_n or_o lord_n day_n so_o that_o if_o a_o man_n do_v in_o six_o day_n overslip_v himself_o as_o indeed_o we_o all_o do_v and_o do_v not_o reconcile_v himself_o to_o god_n every_o night_n as_o we_o ought_v to_o do_v yet_o on_o the_o sabbath_n day_n the_o lord_n call_v he_o to_o he_o and_o show_v he_o his_o fault_n and_o wish_v he_o to_o be_v reconcile_v unto_o he_o
