great_a be_v the_o fairness_n and_o pleasure_n of_o eternal_a light_n that_o if_o one_o may_v not_o live_v there_o long_o than_o one_o day_n for_o this_o only_a innumerable_a year_n full_a of_o the_o delight_n of_o this_o life_n and_o abundance_n of_o temporal_a good_n he_o may_v right_o &_o worthy_o be_v content_v for_o in_o heaven_n we_o shall_v have_v light_n without_o end_n brightness_n without_o comprehension_n peace_n without_o invasion_n in_o this_o world_n our_o sense_n be_v benumb_v &_o freeze_v with_o the_o extremity_n of_o misery_n coldness_n but_o in_o heaven_n there_o shall_v such_o unexpected_a bliss_n shine_v upon_o we_o that_o all_o the_o part_n of_o our_o body_n and_o soul_n shall_v be_v miraculous_o cherish_v with_o the_o lightning_n of_o felicity_n in_o this_o world_n if_o the_o whole_a worthiness_n of_o all_o humane_a creature_n be_v comprise_v in_o the_o globe_n of_o one_o man_n breast_n yet_o be_v not_o that_o one_o man_n so_o happy_a as_o the_o least_o saint_n in_o heaven_n in_o this_o world_n we_o be_v but_o as_o it_o be_v ship_n without_o a_o pilot_n tumble_v up_o and_o down_o in_o uncertain_a wave_n till_o we_o run_v upon_o the_o rock_n of_o self_n division_n or_o be_v overthrow_v by_o the_o stormy_a wind_n of_o foreign_a invasion_n in_o this_o world_n we_o be_v but_o as_o it_o be_v tenisbal_n toss_v by_o the_o rack_v of_o injurious_a fortune_n but_o in_o heaven_n we_o need_v not_o fear_v the_o tempest_n of_o adversity_n for_o there_o we_o shall_v dwell_v with_o saint_n unite_v in_o perfection_n there_o we_o shall_v taste_v the_o golden_a fruit_n of_o bless_a soul_n there_o we_o shall_v have_v christ_n a_o guide_n unto_o our_o way_n and_o a_o guardian_n to_o our_o person_n there_o christ_n shall_v be_v light_n unto_o our_o eye_n music_n unto_o our_o ear_n sweetness_n to_o our_o taste_n contentment_n to_o our_o soul_n the_o state_n of_o the_o church_n militant_a here_o in_o this_o world_n be_v like_o the_o ark_n float_v upon_o water_n like_o a_o lily_n grow_v among_o thorn_n like_o christ_n ship_n in_o the_o 8_o of_o matthew_n cover_v with_o wave_n and_o yet_o not_o drown_v but_o in_o the_o second_o world_n it_o shall_v be_v triumphant_a where_o it_o shall_v glorious_o reign_v for_o evermore_o man_n in_o this_o world_n be_v but_o a_o anatomy_n of_o misery_n or_o a_o spectacle_n of_o a_o dolorous_a end_a tragedy_n but_o in_o the_o world_n to_o come_v he_o shall_v be_v a_o paragon_n of_o glory_n and_o a_o pattern_n of_o endless_a happiness_n therefore_o since_o the_o reward_n of_o our_o godly_a endeavour_n shall_v be_v so_o well_o recompense_v in_o the_o future_a life_n let_v we_o abandon_v all_o vicious_a pleasure_n &_o never_o be_v recall_v to_o the_o vomit_n of_o carnal_a desire_n let_v we_o fight_v manful_o under_o the_o banner_n of_o our_o grand_a captain_n christ_n until_o we_o vanquish_v all_o his_o enemy_n the_o denill_n &_o his_o angel_n and_o for_o that_o good_a service_n perform_v in_o christ_n quarrel_n we_o shall_v receive_v at_o his_o hand_n a_o large_a pay_n namely_o a_o everlasting_a life_n and_o a_o immortal_a crown_n of_o glory_n now_o therefore_o since_o i_o have_v as_o it_o be_v light_v a_o candle_n to_o the_o glorious_a sunshine_n of_o this_o heavenly_a glory_n which_o can_v any_o way_n be_v better_a shadow_v out_o with_o the_o best_a pencil_n then_o by_o cover_v it_o over_o with_o the_o veil_n of_o silence_n i_o will_v speak_v but_o very_o little_o more_o concern_v this_o happiness_n but_o will_v only_o compare_v the_o torment_n of_o hell_n to_o the_o joy_n of_o heaven_n for_o as_o beauty_n seem_v more_o excellent_a when_o it_o be_v paralel_v with_o deformity_n so_o will_v heaven_n show_v more_o glorious_a when_o it_o be_v compare_v to_o hell_n for_o as_o it_o be_v a_o axiom_n with_o the_o logician_n of_o contrary_a thing_n the_o reason_n be_v contrary_a so_o in_o this_o contrariety_n in_o heaven_n and_o in_o hell_n he_o which_o do_v perceive_v the_o joy_n in_o heaven_n may_v easy_o conjecture_v at_o the_o torment_n in_o hell_n if_o the_o joy_n in_o heaven_n can_v be_v express_v by_o the_o tongue_n of_o angel_n than_o the_o torment_n of_o hell_n can_v be_v declare_v by_o the_o best_a orator_n for_o as_o those_o two_o place_n be_v distant_a in_o quality_n so_o their_o joy_n and_o pain_n be_v equal_a in_o quantity_n if_o that_o the_o joy_n of_o heaven_n be_v infinite_a the_o pain_n of_o hell_n must_v consequent_o follow_v to_o be_v infinite_a now_o then_o since_o these_o two_o opposite_a place_n be_v distinguish_v with_o such_o a_o contrariety_n the_o joy_n of_o the_o one_o every_o man_n will_v glad_o enjoy_v the_o pain_n of_o the_o other_o every_o man_n will_v willing_o eschew_v it_o follow_v that_o this_o be_v the_o great_a impediment_n for_o a_o man_n not_o willing_o to_o welcome_a death_n because_o he_o be_v wonderful_o afraid_a lest_o he_o shall_v be_v punish_v for_o his_o sin_n in_o these_o hellish_a torment_n these_o torment_n do_v engender_v such_o a_o fear_n in_o a_o man_n that_o he_o horrid_o quake_v at_o the_o mention_n of_o death_n for_o when_o a_o man_n shall_v recount_v with_o himself_o that_o he_o offer_v the_o may_v crop_v of_o his_o life_n to_o the_o devil_n that_o he_o sacrifice_v his_o bloom_a year_n to_o the_o service_n of_o the_o devil_n and_o that_o now_o the_o flower_n of_o his_o youth_n be_v blast_v the_o fruit_n perish_v the_o body_n of_o the_o tree_n grow_v to_o decay_v than_o he_o shall_v think_v with_o himself_o that_o he_o be_v void_a of_o the_o

the_o worm_n of_o conscience_n and_o feel_v the_o cramp_n of_o death_n wrest_v his_o heart_n string_n and_o ready_a inpathed_a in_o his_o final_o voyage_n and_o not_o far_o from_o the_o period_n of_o
