sin_n lie_v heavy_a upon_o his_o heart_n and_o the_o soul_n complain_v as_o david_n do_v my_o sin_n be_v go_v over_o my_o head_n they_o be_v to_o heavy_a for_o i_o i_o be_o not_o able_a to_o bear_v they_o these_o mighty_a corruption_n i_o shall_v never_o be_v able_a to_o master_v they_o these_o sin_n that_o hang_v upon_o i_o and_o these_o distemper_n that_o cleave_v unto_o i_o oh_o i_o can_v be_v rid_v of_o they_o i_o see_v my_o sin_n more_o than_o ever_o i_o do_v and_o yet_o they_o follow_v i_o and_o still_o they_o pursue_v after_o i_o i_o shall_v never_o be_v free_v from_o they_o i_o shall_v never_o get_v dominion_n over_o they_o why_o there_o be_v admirable_a comfort_n from_o the_o former_a point_n for_o such_o a_o poor_a soul_n that_o be_v thus_o oppress_v by_o and_o overwhelm_v with_o corruption_n the_o doctrine_n be_v this_o god_n by_o a_o holy_a kind_n of_o violence_n do_v pluck_v man_n from_o sin_n and_o draw_v they_o to_o himself_o though_o thy_o sin_n will_v not_o part_v from_o thou_o yet_o the_o lord_n will_v pluck_v those_o corruption_n from_o thy_o soul_n he_o will_v awaken_v thy_o conscience_n and_o humble_a thy_o heart_n he_o will_v bring_v down_o thy_o sturdy_a heart_n be_v thy_o sin_n therefore_o never_o so_o great_a and_o thy_o corruption_n never_o so_o mighty_a yet_o take_v consolation_n hereby_o the_o main_a trouble_n of_o a_o poor_a soul_n lie_v in_o three_o respect_n partly_o in_o regard_n of_o the_o temptation_n of_o satan_n partly_o in_o regard_n of_o corruption_n partly_o in_o regard_n of_o the_o opposition_n a_o man_n find_v in_o a_o good_a course_n these_o be_v marvellous_a hindrance_n to_o a_o christian_a and_o here_o be_v marvellous_a comfort_n from_o the_o former_a truth_n against_o all_o those_o first_o for_o temptation_n when_o the_o lord_n let_v satan_n loose_v upon_o a_o poor_a sinner_n and_o the_o devil_n begin_v to_o domineer_v over_o a_o sinner_n and_o trample_v upon_o a_o sinner_n and_o tell_v a_o sinner_n that_o to_o hell_n he_o must_v go_v and_o away_o he_o must_v with_o he_o it_o be_v in_o vain_a to_o strive_v for_o his_o sin_n be_v so_o strong_a that_o they_o shall_v never_o be_v remove_v his_o corruption_n will_v never_o part_v from_o he_o and_o therefore_o he_o wish_v a_o sinner_n to_o put_v a_o end_n to_o his_o day_n and_o so_o to_o his_o sin_v for_o he_o shall_v never_o be_v recover_v he_o shall_v never_o be_v free_v from_o the_o guilt_n of_o his_o sin_n and_o the_o dominion_n of_o they_o this_o be_v satan_n power_n and_o this_o be_v like_o the_o wind_n that_o blow_v down_o job_n

conceive_v the_o violent_a whurry_v of_o temptation_n and_o the_o fierce_a assault_n of_o satan_n come_v east_n and_o west_n north_n and_o south_n upon_o the_o heart_n of_o a_o sinner_n insomuch_o that_o the_o heart_n begin_v to_o sink_v and_o conceive_v itself_o almost_o in_o hell_n it_o think_v it_o shall_v never_o overcome_v those_o assault_n it_o think_v it_o shall_v never_o get_v out_o of_o these_o temptation_n you_o that_o find_v these_o now_o or_o may_v find_v these_o hereafter_o let_v it_o please_v god_n to_o speak_v peace_n unto_o you_o you_o may_v observe_v marvellous_a comfort_n from_o the_o former_a doctrine_n the_o text_n say_v if_o satan_n will_v not_o come_v out_o the_o lord_n jesus_n will_v bind_v the_o strong_a man_n and_o overcome_v he_o and_o take_v his_o

heaven_n shall_v short_o beat_v down_o satan_n and_o trample_v his_fw-mi under_o ●●eet_a however_o haply_o satan_n will_v not_o down_o but_o be_v proud_a and_o malicious_a towards_o you_o though_o you_o can_v conquer_v he_o and_o quiet_v he_o though_o you_o can_v command_v the_o churlish_a cur_n yet_o the_o master_n can_v if_o there_o be_v a_o bandog_n or_o a_o mastiff_n in_o the_o way_n the_o

for_o comfort_n though_o you_o can_v quiet_v he_o yet_o god_n can_v command_v he_o and_o make_v he_o fall_v under_o your_o foot_n and_o though_o he_o will_v not_o go_v out_o yet_o god_n will_v by_o strong_a hand_n cast_v he_o out_o whether_o he_o will_v or_o no_o nay_o though_o there_o be_v a_o legion_n of_o devil_n in_o thou_o yet_o the_o lord_n will_v force_v they_o out_o luke_n 8.30_o christ_n meet_v with_o a_o man_n which_o have_v devil_n a_o long_a time_n and_o when_o bee_n see_v jesus_n he_o fall_v down_o before_o he_o and_o cry_v with_o a_o loud_a vayce_n what_o have_v we_o

so_o that_o my_o sin_n be_v like_o a_o main_n flood_n which_o pass_v over_o my_o head_n one_o wave_n come_v after_o another_o wickedness_n after_o wickedness_n and_o iniquity_n after_o iniquity_n now_o proud_a now_o sturdy_a now_o covetous_a now_o loose_a now_o profane_a now_o unfaithful_a oh_o these_o secret_a sin_n of_o i_o and_o these_o bosom_n abomination_n of_o i_o by_o which_o my_o

former_a point_n though_o thy_o sin_n be_v never_o so_o violent_a to_o pursue_v thou_o though_o thy_o corruption_n be_v never_o so_o strong_a to_o set_v upon_o thou_o yet_o god_n be_v more_o strong_a to_o conquer_v those_o sin_n and_o more_o strong_a to_o subdue_v those_o corruption_n be_v the_o union_n between_o sin_n and_o thy_o soul_n never_o so_o near_o god_n will_v break_v that_o bond_n and_o

so_o simple_a will_v you_o be_v such_o a_o fool_n to_o shake_v at_o the_o word_n of_o a_o teacher_n alas_o alas_o it_o be_v not_o conscience_n it_o be_v but_o conceit_n in_o this_o case_n and_o so_o at_o last_o the_o poor_a sinner_n fall_v off_o again_o by_o the_o enticement_n of_o satan_n and_o carnal_a counsel_n of_o wicked_a man_n and_o at_o last_o the_o lord_n let_v in_o horror_n and_o

the_o poor_a soul_n say_v now_o i_o find_v that_o it_o be_v not_o conceit_n that_o trouble_v i_o for_o the_o flash_n of_o hell_n have_v be_v in_o my_o face_n and_o all_o the_o opposition_n against_o

set_v before_o i_o and_o i_o see_v hell_n open_a in_o conclusion_n and_o god_n execute_v judgement_n upon_o i_o for_o my_o sin_n now_o when_o his_o companion_n see_v he_o in_o this_o humour_n they_o think_v a_o scoff_n will_v not_o chase_v away_o this_o horror_n for_o he_o tell_v they_o it_o be_v not_o your_o scoff_n that_o will_v do_v it_o now_o no_o no_o i_o be_o go_v to_o hell_n and_o you_o

you_o shall_v to_o hell_n as_o well_o as_o i_o do_v you_o think_v that_o i_o shall_v go_v to_o hell_n and_o you_o not_o make_v haste_n after_o i_o do_v you_o think_v that_o i_o shall_v be_v damn_v and_o you_o not_o be_v plague_v when_o his_o companion_n see_v this_o than_o they_o leave_v scoff_v and_o gibe_v of_o he_o and_o dare_v not_o appear_v themselves_o but_o the_o devil_n he_o transform_v himself_o into_o a_o angel_n of_o light_n a_o drunkard_n will_v not_o now_o come_v unto_o he_o in_o the_o coat_n of_o a_o drunkard_n but_o he_o take_v the_o coat_n of_o some_o seem_a grave_n man_n upon_o he_o and_o he_o must_v set_v upon_o he_o and_o tell_v he_o how_o the_o case_n stand_v and_o this_o carnal_a man_n do_v three_o thing_n to_o draw_v away_o the_o heart_n from_o god_n in_o this_o kind_n first_o he_o delude_v conscience_n and_o tell_v he_o there_o be_v such_o a_o thing_n in_o fear_n but_o nothing_o in_o deed_n thou_o say_v he_o be_v sinful_a and_o god_n be_v merciful_a thou_o have_v be_v a_o adulterer_n so_o be_v david_n and_o he_o do_v nothing_o but_o say_v i_o have_v sin_v and_o he_o be_v forgive_v oh_o but_o say_v the_o poor_a soul_n david_n be_v a_o break_a heart_a man_n and_o this_o break_v his_o very_a bone_n well_o when_o he_o see_v this_o will_v not_o do_v than_o second_o he_o must_v get_v he_o to_o card_n and_o to_o dice_n to_o sport_n and_o to_o play_n until_o his_o conscience_n be_v benume_v and_o sear_v and_o then_o three_o all_o goodness_n must_v be_v keep_v from_o he_o in_o these_o case_n especial_o they_o will_v be_v sure_a that_o he_o do_v not_o look_v upon_o a_o bible_n lest_o by_o that_o mean_v he_o may_v be_v draw_v away_o again_o now_o the_o lord_n be_v merciful_a unto_o we_o the_o poor_a man_n by_o counsel_n on_o one_o side_n and_o allurement_n on_o the_o other_o whereas_o before_o his_o soul_n be_v a_o little_a enlighten_v and_o his_o conscience_n awaken_v now_o he_o begin_v to_o turn_v a_o devil_n he_o fly_v about_o as_o though_o hell_n be_v break_v loose_a he_o care_v not_o what_o he_o do_v for_o the_o dishonour_n of_o god_n and_o damn_v of_o his_o own_o soul_n so_o that_o by_o this_o time_n you_o see_v the_o

o●_n conversion_n and_o salvation_n be_v as_o like_o the_o devil_n as_o can_v be_v act_v 13.8_o the_o text_n say_v when_o paul_n be_v to_o deal_v with_o sergius_n paulus_n the_o deputy_n lieutenant_n
