to_o god_n as_o to_o a_o most_o love_a father_n with_o a_o confidence_n that_o he_o will_v supply_v they_o the_o scripture_n tell_v you_o that_o the_o effectual_a fervent_a prayer_n of_o a_o righteour_n man_n avail_v much_o and_o it_o tell_v you_o that_o though_o elias_n be_v a_o man_n subject_n to_o like_a passion_n with_o we_o yet_o god_n hear_v he_o and_o grant_v his_o request_n to_o encourage_v we_o to_o come_v with_o boldness_n to_o the_o throne_n of_o grace_n therefore_o do_v not_o only_o make_v conscience_n to_o pray_v but_o make_v conscience_n also_o how_o to_o pray_v pray_v with_o zeal_n and_o fervency_n do_v not_o satisfy_v yourself_o with_o the_o body_n of_o the_o duty_n without_o the_o soul_n but_o as_o pious_a hanna_n do_v pour_v out_o your_o spirit_n before_o the_o lord_n in_o the_o name_n of_o christ_n for_o thing_n what_o you_o stand_v in_o need_n of_o and_o remember_v that_o david_n say_v that_o the_o lord_n have_v hear_v the_o voice_n of_o his_o weep_n and_o therefore_o if_o you_o can_v weep_v for_o your_o sin_n at_o least_o mourn_v that_o you_o can_v mourn_v for_o sin_v against_o so_o gracious_a a_o father_n that_o so_o the_o mercy_n of_o god_n may_v melt_v into_o a_o ingenuous_a sorrow_n and_o do_v not_o leave_v your_o prayer_n till_o you_o have_v enjoy_v some_o communion_n with_o god_n in_o they_o and_o then_o you_o will_v be_v fit_a to_o go_v cheerful_o about_o your_o worldly_a employment_n forget_v not_o god_n have_v entrust_v you_o with_o child_n and_o therefore_o remember_v to_o take_v care_n they_o be_v breed_v up_o in_o the_o nurture_n and_o admonition_n of_o the_o lord_n and_o to_o season_v they_o in_o their_o young_a and_o tender_a year_n with_o principle_n of_o piety_n and_o honour_n that_o so_o set_v they_o forth_o in_o the_o way_n wherein_o they_o shall_v go_v when_o they_o be_v old_a they_o may_v not_o depart_v from_o it_o remember_v also_o you_o have_v a_o family_n to_o govern_v and_o take_v up_o good_a josuah_n resolution_n that_o you_o and_o your_o house_n will_v serve_v the_o lord_n and_o david_n who_o say_v that_o his_o eye_n shall_v be_v on_o the_o faithful_a in_o the_o land_n that_o they_o may_v serve_v he_o and_o he_o that_o tell_v lie_n shall_v not_o tarry_v in_o his_o sight_n therefore_o have_v a_o care_v not_o to_o keep_v any_o that_o be_v open_o profane_a and_o scandalous_a but_o at_o least_o let_v they_o be_v moral_o civil_a and_o let_v god_n be_v solemn_o twice_o a_o day_n public_o worship_v by_o yourself_o and_o family_n and_o set_v they_o good_a example_n and_o say_v unto_o they_o as_o gideon_n do_v to_o his_o man_n in_o another_o case_n look_v on_o i_o and_o do_v likewise_o when_o you_o have_v thus_o spend_v your_o morning_n than_o i_o be_o not_o so_o rigid_a as_o to_o forbid_v you_o all_o recreation_n no_o i_o think_v they_o very_o necessary_a for_o diversion_n but_o i_o must_v be_v so_o severe_a as_o to_o forbid_v you_o such_o as_o may_v put_v you_o into_o any_o passion_n or_o disorder_n which_o may_v be_v hurtful_a both_o to_o soul_n and_o body_n therefore_o i_o will_v absolute_o forbid_v you_o dice_n and_o card_n too_o unless_o it_o be_v sometime_o when_o you_o must_v keep_v these_o limitation_n first_o not_o to_o play_v all_o day_n long_o as_o if_o you_o be_v make_v only_o to_o eat_v and_o drink_v and_o rise_v up_o to_o play_v for_o certain_o god_n do_v not_o give_v we_o time_n as_o we_o give_v child_n rattle_n only_o to_o play_v withal_o remember_v what_o your_o good_a friend_n dr._n taylor_n say_v that_o he_o that_o spend_v his_o time_n in_o sport_n and_o call_v it_o recreation_n be_v as_o he_o who_o garment_n be_v nothing_o but_o fringe_n and_o and_o his_o meat_n nothing_o but_o sauce_n therefore_o i_o shall_v advise_v you_o that_o your_o recreation_n may_v be_v as_o your_o sauce_n not_o as_o your_o full_a meat_n the_o second_o limitation_n i_o will_v advise_v be_v not_o to_o play_v for_o more_o than_o you_o care_v whether_o you_o win_v or_o lose_v remember_v that_o mr._n herbert_n in_o his_o excellent_a poem_n say_v game_n be_v a_o civil_a gunpowder_n in_o peace_n blow_v up_o house_n with_o their_o whole_a increase_n my_o next_o advice_n to_o you_o be_v to_o make_v a_o good_a choice_n of_o your_o friend_n and_o to_o keep_v company_n most_o with_o those_o of_o they_o that_o be_v civil_a and_o religious_a and_o ingenious_a for_o such_o company_n will_v be_v both_o pleasant_a and_o advantageous_a to_o you_o but_o the_o rant_a gamester_n company_n ought_v to_o be_v displease_v to_o you_o for_o i_o be_o sure_a you_o may_v get_v a_o great_a deal_n of_o ill_a by_o they_o but_o no_o good_a therefore_o let_v such_o company_n be_v rather_o a_o punishment_n than_o a_o choice_n next_o i_o will_v desire_v you_o to_o be_v as_o cheerful_a as_o you_o can_v and_o to_o that_o purpose_n i_o will_v recommend_v to_o you_o that_o gaity_n of_o goodness_n that_o will_v make_v you_o most_o please_a to_o yourself_o and_o other_o and_o now_o my_o lord_n as_o your_o friend_n you_o must_v give_v i_o leave_v to_o give_v you_o not_o only_o good_a counsel_n but_o my_o own_o experience_n too_o like_o nurse_n who_o feed_v their_o child_n with_o nothing_o but_o what_o they_o have_v first_o themselves_o digest_v into_o milk_n and_o to_o assure_v you_o that_o however_o the_o devil_n and_o wicked_a man_n may_v persuade_v you_o that_o religion_n will_v make_v you_o melancholy_n yet_o i_o can_v assert_v from_o my_o own_o experience_n that_o nothing_o can_v give_v you_o that_o comfort_n serenity_n and_o composedness_n of_o mind_n as_o a_o well_o and_o orderly_o lead_v life_n this_o will_v free_v you_o from_o all_o those_o sad_a disquiet_v remorse_n and_o check_n of_o conscience_n which_o follow_v a_o ill_a action_n and_o give_v you_o that_o peace_n of_o god_n that_o pass_v all_o understanding_n and_o that_o continual_a feast_n of_o a_o good_a conscience_n this_o will_v make_v you_o rejoice_v with_o joy_n unspeakable_a and_o full_a of_o glory_n this_o will_v calm_v your_o desire_n and_o quiet_a your_o wish_n so_o as_o you_o shall_v find_v the_o consolation_n of_o god_n be_v not_o small_a you_o will_v find_v you_o have_v make_v a_o happy_a exchange_n have_v gold_n for_o brass_n and_o pearl_n for_o pebble_n for_o true_o my_o lord_n i_o be_o upon_o trial_n convince_v that_o all_o the_o

bishop_n hall_n say_v be_v not_o worthy_a to_o come_v into_o the_o bill_n of_o mortality_n i_o must_v confess_v for_o my_o own_o part_n though_o i_o have_v as_o much_o as_o most_o people_n in_o this_o

thereof_o yet_o i_o never_o find_v they_o satisfy_v i_o god_n have_v give_v i_o a_o nature_n uncapable_a of_o satisfaction_n in_o any_o thing_n below_o the_o high_a excellency_n i_o never_o in_o all_o
