against_o all_o the_o devil_n temptation_n &_o never_o fall_v the_o least_o jot_n that_o may_v be_v from_o his_o most_o pure_a and_o perfect_a obedience_n no_o nothing_o in_o any_o the_o least_o

this_o commandment_n wherefore_o see_v ever_o since_o the_o entrance_n of_o evil_a lust_n this_o have_v be_v and_o be_v the_o devil_n secret_a mean_n to_o entice_v and_o draw_v we_o unto_o all_o sin_n it_o ought_v to_o be_v more_o odious_a unto_o we_o then_o any_o serpent_n can_v be_v i_o will_v hear_v yet_o one_o thing_n more_o of_o you_o what_o thought_n and_o motion_n do_v you_o mean_v by_o vain_a thought_n and_o wander_a lust_n and_o motion_n all_o thought_n motion_n and_o lust_n whatsoever_o they_o be_v they_o be_v all_o of_o they_o vain_a and_o sinful_a which_o be_v not_o agreeable_a to_o the_o word_n and_o will_n of_o god_n and_o which_o tend_v not_o to_o the_o right_a end_n that_o be_v to_o the_o glory_n of_o god_n &_o to_o the_o benefit_n of_o his_o church_n &_o people_n it_o be_v true_a for_o as_o the_o apostle_n say_v whether_o you_o eat_v or_o drink_v or_o whatsoever_o you_o do_v do_v all_o to_o the_o glory_n of_o god_n 1._o cor._n 10.31_o so_o we_o may_v say_v whatsoever_o you_o think_v mind_n or_o devise_v let_v it_o be_v to_o the_o glory_n of_o god_n but_o see_v by_o the_o mean_n of_o the_o contrary_a vanity_n and_o evil_n covet_v which_o be_v in_o we_o our_o mind_n be_v most_o feeble_a and_o fickle_a in_o themselves_o touch_v all_o good_a thought_n and_o meditation_n that_o we_o can_v stay_v our_o heart_n in_o they_o we_o may_v see_v from_o hence_o most_o lively_a how_o great_a and_o urgent_a cause_n we_o have_v always_o to_o lift_v up_o our_o eye_n to_o our_o saviour_n christ_n who_o be_v and_o be_v still_o lift_v up_o unto_o we_o like_v unto_o that_o heal_a serpent_n which_o be_v lift_v up_o by_o moses_n in_o the_o wilderness_n that_o by_o faith_n in_o he_o we_o may_v obtain_v help_n even_o a_o sovereign_a counterpoison_v against_o the_o stinging_n of_o this_o venomous_a serpent_n who_o have_v so_o deep_o and_o so_o deadly_a convey_v his_o poison_n into_o us._n we_o may_v see_v also_o what_o great_a cause_n we_o have_v to_o be_v continual_a in_o prayer_n to_o god_n that_o it_o will_v please_v he_o to_o sanctify_v our_o heart_n that_o the_o thought_n and_o meditation_n thereof_o may_v be_v acceptable_a unto_o he_o according_a to_o the_o prayer_n of_o david_n in_o the_o 19_o psalm_n we_o may_v perceive_v likewise_o what_o great_a cause_n we_o have_v to_o acquaint_v ourselves_o with_o the_o holy_a sacrament_n and_o to_o make_v due_a use_n from_o these_o sensible_a assurance_n of_o god_n love_n that_o thereby_o we_o may_v the_o rather_o have_v power_n against_o the_o vanity_n of_o our_o mind_n etc._n etc._n let_v we_o learn_v to_o make_v the_o lord_n our_o portion_n and_o let_v christ_n our_o saviour_n be_v in_o stead_n of_o all_o covetable_a or_o desirable_a thing_n unto_o we_o according_a to_o the_o doctrine_n which_o we_o have_v hear_v out_o of_o the_o 16._o psal_n and_o as_o we_o read_v song_n of_o song_n chap._n 5.16_o that_o christ_n be_v to_o the_o church_n in_o stead_n of_o all_o sweet_a thing_n commandment_n it_o lead_v we_o back_o to_o the_o first_o commandment_n and_o thence_o through_o all_o the_o commandment_n yea_o whole_o delectable_a that_o be_v according_a to_o the_o hebrew_n word_n there_o use_v all_o whatsoever_o be_v worthy_a to_o be_v covet_v or_o desire_v and_o thus_o this_o 10._o commandment_n which_o be_v as_o it_o be_v the_o period_n and_o full_a point_n of_o the_o law_n of_o god_n &_o the_o end_n as_o one_o may_v say_v of_o the_o race_n or_o goal_n of_o humane_a charity_n it_o direct_v we_o back_o again_o to_o the_o first_o commandment_n and_o even_o to_o god_n himself_o the_o only_a true_a fountain_n of_o all_o love_n and_o the_o most_o worthy_a to_o be_v love_v of_o all_o and_o for_o who_o sake_n also_o we_o shall_v according_a to_o this_o commandment_n
