be_v general_o of_o a_o churlish_a disposition_n it_o come_v to_o pass_v that_o the_o duty_n both_o to_o god_n and_o man_n which_o be_v to_o be_v infer_v from_o the_o general_n precept_n of_o love_n

this_o will_v it_o hold_v according_a to_o the_o precept_n of_o love_n to_o god_n and_o to_o my_o neighbour_n this_o particular_a fact_n which_o i_o put_v forth_o by_o way_n of_o retail_n do_v it_o

upon_o the_o law_n of_o love_n because_o it_o be_v the_o scope_n or_o drift_n to_o which_o all_o the_o commandment_n in_o particular_a tend_v according_a to_o that_o say_v of_o s_o t_o paul_n 1_o tim._n 1.5_o the_o end_n of_o the_o commandment_n be_v charity_n or_o love_n out_o of_o a_o pure_a heart_n and_o good_a conscience_n and_o faith_n unfeigned_a i._n e._n upon_o the_o ground_n of_o the_o belief_n of_o remission_n of_o our_o sin_n through_o christ_n to_o love_n god_n and_o our_o brethren_n for_o so_o great_a a_o benefit_n and_o to_o express_v our_o love_n in_o the_o work_v of_o a_o good_a conscience_n it_o be_v not_o preach_v the_o law_n though_o never_o so_o zealous_o as_o those_o do_v saint_n to_o paul_n here_o speak_v of_o or_o the_o perform_v the_o outward_a act_n of_o the_o law_n as_o many_o of_o the_o jew_n be_v very_o scrupulous_a in_o the_o observation_n of_o that_o make_v a_o righteous_a man_n according_a to_o the_o law_n but_o he_o that_o do_v according_a to_o

of_o the_o law_n and_o they_o that_o mind_n not_o this_o as_o saint_n t_o paul_n say_v take_v their_o aim_n amiss_o and_o swerve_v from_o the_o end_n and_o intention_n of_o the_o law_n discern_v not_o the_o grace_n of_o love_n that_o run_v through_o it_o as_o the_o warp_n and_o the_o woof_n do_v through_o a_o web_n of_o cloth_n and_o whole_o sustain_v the_o contexture_n of_o it_o without_o love_n all_o that_o be_v excellent_a all_o that_o be_v divine_a in_o the_o law_n will_v fall_v to_o the_o ground_n as_o all_o the_o riches_n and_o gallantry_n of_o the_o veil_n of_o the_o temple_n all_o

and_o righteousness_n it_o command_v all_o the_o worth_n and_o value_n of_o its_o duty_n depend_v upon_o love_n as_o the_o value_n of_o coin_n depend_v upon_o the_o price_n the_o stamp_n set_v upon_o

commandment_n be_v insignificant_a and_o nothing_o and_o this_o saint_n paul_n show_v 1_o cor._n 13._o that_o even_o the_o most_o specious_a and_o seem_o heroic_a performance_n of_o christianity_n itself_o as_o a_o man_n give_v his_o good_n to_o feed_v the_o poor_a and_o his_o body_n to_o be_v burn_v etc._n etc._n if_o they_o be_v not_o accompany_v with_o charity_n or_o love_n be_v all_o nothing_o the_o dignity_n of_o these_o work_n depend_v so_o absolute_o upon_o this_o grace_n that_o in_o god_n esteem_n to_o suffer_v injury_n only_o out_o of_o love_n to_o our_o fellow-christian_a be_v more_o than_o to_o suffer_v martyrdom_n not_o to_o envy_v not_o to_o be_v puff_v up_o not_o to_o despise_v our_o brother_n be_v more_o in_o his_o eye_n than_o to_o speak_v with_o tongue_n than_o

please_a effect_n love_n have_v upon_o all_o and_o even_o upon_o god_n himself_o as_o well_o as_o man_n and_o other_o creature_n insomuch_o as_o god_n for_o his_o part_n require_v almost_o nothing_o else_o from_o we_o now_o o_o israel_n what_o do_v the_o lord_n thy_o god_n require_v of_o thou_o but_o to_o fear_v the_o lord_n thy_o god_n and_o to_o love_v he_o with_o all_o thy_o heart_n and_o with_o all_o thy_o soul_n deut._n 10.12_o to_o be_v belove_v be_v so_o grateful_a a_o thing_n that_o man_n receive_v delight_n even_o in_o the_o affection_n of_o brute_n creature_n and_o we_o see_v that_o such_o as_o be_v not_o qualify_v to_o deserve_v any_o true_a love_n be_v take_v with_o the_o similitude_n only_o of_o it_o the_o gross_a flattery_n of_o they_o that_o counterfeit_v it_o sinner_n as_o our_o lord_n tell_v we_o love_v those_o that_o love_v they_o and_o saint_n t_o paul_n 1_o thess._n 2.15_o brand_v the_o jew_n for_o their_o want_n of_o love_n as_o with_o a_o crime_n
