in_o sorrow_n oh_o all_o you_o that_o have_v pantel_n and_o thri_v after_o righteousness_n who_o have_v weary_v yourselves_o in_o seek_v among_o the_o dead_a grave_n and_o tomb_n for_o a_o saviour_n but_o have_v find_v no_o rest_n and_o who_o have_v follow_v loe_o here_o and_o there_o in_o this_o grave_n and_o the_o other_o sepulchre_n build_v on_o this_o and_o that_o sand_n and_o still_o sweep_v away_o your_o state_n i_o know_v you_o have_v no_o peace_n in_o the_o eternal_a rest_n i_o say_v unto_o you_o while_o you_o look_v without_o you_o your_o eye_n may_v consume_v in_o your_o hole_n and_o your_o expectation_n fail_v and_o you_o will_v be_v still_o complain_v for_o your_o sake_n who_o be_v weary_a and_o have_v find_v none_o to_o direct_v your_o way_n a_o few_o line_n i_o be_o move_v in_o compassion_n to_o write_v unto_o you_o and_o if_o you_o will_v not_o receive_v it_o you_o will_v not_o believe_v if_o one_o shall_v rise_v from_o the_o dead_a for_o i_o have_v obtain_v mercy_n from_o christ_n through_o his_o free_a grace_n who_o be_v rise_v from_o the_o dead_a and_o see_v no_o corruption_n by_o which_o grace_n i_o be_o save_v from_o sin_n and_o cleanse_v from_o unrighteousness_n after_o long_a and_o sore_a labour_n and_o travel_v under_o pharaoh_n the_o oppressor_n from_o under_o who_o dominion_n i_o be_o bring_v to_o worship_v the_o live_a god_n in_o spirit_n and_o truth_n in_o his_o temple_n where_o he_o dwell_v in_o righteousness_n for_o ever_o and_o for_o the_o simple_n sake_n who_o have_v err_v for_o lack_v of_o true_a knowledge_n as_o i_o do_v in_o time_n past_a i_o shall_v declare_v unto_o you_o a_o little_a in_o short_a of_o my_o travel_n in_o aegypts-land_n where_o darkness_n be_v so_o thick_a that_o if_o you_o wait_v but_o diligent_o to_o see_v yourselves_o you_o will_v feel_v it_o also_o from_o twelve_o year_n old_a i_o set_v my_o heart_n to_o know_v that_o god_n which_o the_o world_n profess_v and_o which_o i_o do_v read_v of_o in_o the_o scripture_n which_o abraham_n noah_n moses_n and_o the_o prophet_n and_o the_o rest_n of_o the_o father_n worship_v and_o i_o do_v fall_v into_o the_o strict_a worship_n that_o be_v in_o that_o part_n wherein_o i_o live_v and_o often_o i_o desire_v to_o be_v alone_o and_o attend_v much_o to_o read_v and_o meditation_n and_o then_o as_o i_o be_v sober_a and_o serious_a alone_o i_o begin_v to_o see_v that_o all_o the_o sport_n and_o pastime_n and_o such_o as_o youth_n delight_v in_o natural_o be_v vanity_n and_o they_o last_v but_o for_o a_o moment_n and_o while_o i_o be_v in_o folly_n and_o wantonness_n do_v of_o they_o the_o nature_n which_o be_v run_v into_o transgression_n have_v pleasure_n in_o they_o but_o assoon_o as_o i_o be_v come_v from_o among_o they_o i_o be_v judge_v in_o myself_o for_o what_o i_o have_v do_v and_o often_o make_v i_o weep_v than_o i_o resolve_v in_o my_o will_n that_o i_o never_o will_v do_v so_o again_o and_o for_o some_o time_n do_v restrain_v from_o the_o common_a practice_n of_o those_o thing_n that_o i_o have_v walk_v in_o but_o assoon_o as_o i_o come_v among_o those_o again_o i_o act_v those_o thing_n again_o which_o before_o i_o do_v see_v to_o be_v vanity_n but_o long_o before_o that_o i_o be_v check_v for_o many_o thing_n and_o so_o i_o walk_v often_o condemn_v in_o myself_o when_o i_o be_v serious_a and_o have_v no_o peace_n and_o then_o not_o know_v what_o to_o do_v in_o much_o sorrow_n when_o i_o be_v alone_o i_o have_v a_o desire_n to_o be_v alone_o where_o i_o may_v not_o hear_v nor_o see_v any_o folly_n act_v and_o do_v not_o go_v to_o the_o former_a exercise_n although_o some_o thing_n in_o i_o hanckered_a after_o it_o but_o when_o i_o yield_v not_o unto_o it_o i_o be_v glad_a and_o have_v peace_n and_o then_o i_o begin_v to_o oppose_v my_o fellow_n with_o who_o i_o have_v walk_v in_o wantonness_n and_o then_o they_o begin_v to_o revile_v i_o and_o hate_v i_o and_o scorn_v i_o yet_o notwithstanding_o i_o matter_v not_o than_o i_o read_v much_o and_o pray_v in_o word_n often_o three_o or_o four_o time_n a_o day_n but_o i_o know_v not_o where_o god_n be_v but_o in_o my_o imagination_n imagine_v a_o god_n at_o a_o distance_n and_o so_o go_v on_o and_o then_o i_o begin_v to_o grow_v in_o knowledge_n without_o which_o be_v sensual_a and_o then_o i_o be_v puff_v up_o for_o the_o world_n admire_v i_o but_o still_o i_o be_v condemn_v for_o vain_a word_n and_o action_n and_o the_o root_n of_o iniquity_n grow_v in_o i_o and_o then_o i_o follow_v a_o more_o strict_a course_n and_o often_o go_v five_o or_o six_o mile_n to_o hear_v some_o more_o excellent_a mean_n as_o they_o call_v it_o and_o so_o do_v get_v more_o word_n but_o still_o i_o be_v the_o same_o nay_o worse_o for_o knowledge_n puff_v i_o up_o then_o along_o to_o about_o fifteen_o year_n of_o age_n i_o post_v up_o and_o down_o after_o the_o most_o excellent_a sermon_n so_o call_v and_o so_o become_v acquaint_v with_o all_o the_o eminent_a christian_n so_o call_v in_o the_o region_n where_o i_o live_v and_o i_o be_v despise_v of_o my_o parent_n and_o of_o the_o world_n make_v and_o great_a reproach_n come_v upon_o i_o but_o still_o i_o see_v they_o know_v nought_o and_o it_o be_v no_o matter_n and_o so_o much_o sorrow_n fall_v upon_o i_o four_o or_o five_o year_n and_o when_o i_o be_v turn_v within_o i_o be_v judge_v for_o all_o myiniquity_n former_o and_o still_o my_o heart_n be_v show_v to_o i_o that_o it_o be_v corrupt_a but_o as_o i_o keep_v whithin_o to_o the_o light_n in_o my_o conscience_n i_o be_v restrain_v from_o many_o action_n which_o i_o have_v a_o will_n to_o do_v and_o in_o the_o instant_n when_o i_o have_v be_v do_v any_o unrighteousness_n in_o action_n or_o word_n in_o many_o thing_n i_o be_v often_o stop_v and_o when_o i_o see_v that_o i_o do_v it_o not_o a_o great_a joy_n arise_v in_o i_o and_o when_o i_o have_v do_v any_o thing_n forward_o and_o rash_o i_o be_v judge_v but_o this_o the_o teacher_n say_v be_v a_o natural_a conscience_n that_o keep_v from_o sin_n and_o do_v restrain_v it_o and_o say_v he_o that_o have_v but_o restrain_v grace_n as_o they_o call_v it_o he_o be_v but_o a_o tame_a devil_n and_o so_o i_o harken_v to_o their_o imagination_n and_o so_o slight_v the_o light_n as_o too_o low_a a_o thing_n that_o be_v but_o common_a grace_n that_o do_v preserve_v out_o of_o gross_a evil_n but_o the_o saint_n have_v a_o peculiar_a faith_n and_o grace_n and_o so_o i_o harken_v unto_o they_o and_o still_o i_o be_v convince_v of_o sin_n and_o then_o they_o tell_v how_o the_o saint_n do_v believe_v in_o christ_n and_o so_o sin_n be_v not_o impute_v but_o his_o righteousness_n be_v account_v unto_o they_o and_o so_o i_o must_v seek_v he_o in_o the_o mean_n as_o prayer_n and_o receive_v the_o sacrament_n as_o they_o call_v it_o and_o judge_v i_o a_o worthy_a communicant_n and_o in_o great_a fear_n i_o be_v that_o i_o shall_v eat_v unworthy_o and_o none_o can_v direct_v i_o what_o the_o body_n of_o christ_n be_v insomuch_o at_o one_o time_n i_o read_v all_o the_o scripture_n that_o speak_v of_o christ_n suffering_n and_o they_o say_v i_o must_v believe_v he_o suffer_v for_o i_o and_o i_o believe_v all_o that_o they_o call_v faith_n but_o yet_o i_o can_v not_o see_v how_o he_o die_v for_o i_o and_o have_v take_v away_o my_o sin_n for_o the_o witness_n in_o my_o conscience_n tell_v i_o i_o be_v a_o servant_n of_o sin_n whilst_o i_o commit_v it_o and_o they_o tell_v i_o i_o must_v not_o omit_v that_o ordinance_n for_o thereby_o strength_n be_v confirm_v and_o faith_n add_v insomuch_o on_o the_o one_o hand_n they_o press_v it_o as_o a_o duty_n and_o on_o the_o other_o hand_n i_o see_v that_o the_o scripture_n say_v he_o that_o eat_v unworthy_o eat_v damnation_n to_o himself_o i_o be_v in_o fear_n notwithstanding_o none_o can_v accuse_v i_o without_o yet_o than_o afterward_o a_o great_a fear_n fall_v upon_o i_o and_o i_o think_v i_o have_v sin_v against_o the_o holy_a ghost_n and_o great_a trouble_n fall_v upon_o i_o then_o they_o say_v i_o have_v not_o come_v prepare_v and_o yet_o i_o have_v all_o the_o preparation_n that_o they_o have_v speak_v of_o but_o still_o they_o be_v all_o physician_n of_o no_o value_n then_o i_o fast_v and_o pray_v and_o walk_v mournful_o in_o sorrow_n and_o think_v none_o be_v like_o i_o tempt_v on_o every_o hand_n so_o i_o run_v to_o this_o man_n and_o the_o other_o and_o they_o apply_v promise_n to_o i_o but_o it_o be_v only_a word_n for_o the_o witness_n of_o

have_v choose_v your_o own_o way_n and_o so_o have_v go_v from_o the_o way_n which_o be_v the_o light_n of_o christ_n in_o you_o and_o so_o you_o run_v into_o the_o broad_a way_n and_o that_o which_o
