be_v more_o careful_a well_o to_o improve_v than_o the_o season_n of_o grace_n which_o god_n afford_v you_o the_o scripture_n speak_v of_o a_o time_n of_o visitation_n luke_n 19.44_o of_o a_o day_n

the_o strive_n of_o his_o spirit_n with_o we_o i_o answer_v you_o may_v know_v it_o by_o these_o thing_n 1._o when_o he_o cast_v you_o by_o his_o providence_n under_o a_o powerful_a and_o awaken_n

heaven_n and_o account_n that_o this_o be_v the_o day_n of_o your_o visitation_n this_o be_v your_o season_n of_o grace_n and_o therefore_o be_v very_o careful_a to_o make_v a_o right_a improvement_n of_o it_o all_o wise_a man_n be_v careful_a to_o lay_v hold_v on_o and_o to_o improve_v all_o fit_a season_n and_o opportunity_n for_o the_o effect_v the_o business_n they_o design_v for_o that_o
