before_o god_n there_o be_v such_o a_o difference_n of_o part_n and_o circumstance_n as_o be_v in_o the_o law_n as_o our_o saviour_n express_v upon_o occasion_n to_o the_o scribe_n &_o pharisee_n between_o tithing_n of_o mint_n and_o cumin_n and_o exercise_v of_o mercy_n and_o execute_v judgement_n these_o be_v call_v the_o great_a thing_n of_o the_o law_n imply_v that_o those_o other_o be_v matter_n of_o inferior_a consideration_n so_o there_o be_v in_o this_o duty_n in_o this_o great_a and_o solemn_a service_n some_o thing_n that_o ought_v and_o be_v necessary_a and_o fit_a to_o be_v do_v other_o wherein_o the_o main_a weight_n and_o importance_n of_o it_o stand_v as_o christ_n tell_v the_o pharisee_n that_o for_o the_o tithe_n of_o mint_n and_o cumin_n they_o be_v thing_n they_o ought_v to_o do_v as_o well_o as_o the_o keep_a mercy_n and_o judgement_n though_o these_o have_v the_o pre-eminence_n and_o be_v the_o great_a thing_n of_o the_o law_n 2_o those_o thing_n in_o this_o duty_n which_o ought_v not_o to_o be_v leave_v undo_v though_o the_o life_n of_o the_o duty_n lie_v not_o in_o they_o be_v such_o as_o may_v go_v under_o the_o name_n of_o bodily_a exercise_n which_o i_o shall_v not_o need_v to_o recapitulate_v particular_o because_o as_o i_o conceive_v they_o be_v every_o man_n knowledge_n as_o namely_o fast_v not_o only_o from_o our_o ordinary_a repast_n as_o eat_v and_o drink_v but_o likewise_o from_o recreation_n costly_a apparel_n and_o many_o other_o thing_n wherein_o the_o fancy_n of_o man_n be_v apt_a to_o take_v a_o delight_n and_o refreshment_n and_o so_o your_o bodily_a presence_n before_o god_n in_o the_o assembly_n for_o a_o great_a space_n of_o time_n than_o ordinary_a to_o this_o head_n i_o may_v refer_v likewise_o those_o contribution_n that_o you_o use_v to_o make_v unto_o the_o poor_a upon_o such_o occasion_n as_o these_o now_o all_o these_o be_v thing_n very_o fit_a to_o be_v do_v but_o yet_o you_o must_v take_v heed_n this_o be_v the_o stumble_a stone_n that_o i_o speak_v of_o that_o i_o will_v remove_v first_o that_o you_o place_v no_o weight_n at_o all_o or_o as_o little_a as_o possible_a may_v be_v in_o the_o most_o strict_a and_o literal_a observation_n of_o these_o thing_n lest_o you_o lose_v the_o crown_n of_o the_o service_n and_o reward_n of_o the_o day_n for_o such_o exercise_n profit_v little_a as_o the_o apostle_n speak_v except_o it_o be_v perhaps_o to_o make_v the_o surface_n or_o appearance_n of_o the_o service_n the_o more_o comely_a &_o solemn_a but_o now_o the_o mercy_n and_o the_o judgement_n and_o the_o great_a thing_n of_o the_o law_n the_o great_a thing_n of_o this_o day_n and_o service_n be_v the_o exercise_n of_o the_o spirit_n as_o first_o the_o summon_n and_o gather_v together_o into_o your_o memory_n next_o a_o serious_a and_o affectuous_a consideration_n than_o a_o acknowledgement_n of_o the_o sin_n of_o the_o nation_n so_o likewise_o a_o confess_v in_o this_o sense_n of_o the_o sin_n of_o your_o own_o soul_n and_o the_o sin_n of_o those_o that_o be_v under_o your_o hand_n and_o charge_n yea_o and_o of_o the_o sin_n of_o your_o forefather_n even_o to_o the_o break_n of_o your_o heart_n and_o the_o humble_v and_o lay_v low_a the_o smite_v down_o and_o wound_v your_o spirit_n and_o conscience_n in_o the_o sight_n of_o god_n 3_o next_o to_o this_o

of_o they_o though_o never_o so_o strict_o observe_v for_o there_o be_v little_a of_o the_o substance_n of_o the_o duty_n in_o they_o when_o you_o have_v do_v your_o utmost_a but_o all_o the_o
