bind_v we_o be_v bind_v with_o they_o because_o one_o part_n of_o we_o be_v in_o bond_n and_o as_o we_o will_v be_v sensible_a of_o our_o misery_n and_o will_v use_v all_o mean_n to_o release_v and_o relieve_v ourselves_o so_o we_o shall_v endeavour_v to_o help_v and_o deliver_v they_o they_o be_v part_n of_o ourselves_o therefore_o we_o must_v remember_v they_o again_o we_o be_v one_o with_o they_o so_o that_o we_o be_v in_o the_o same_o condition_n with_o they_o so_o far_o that_o we_o be_v obnoxious_a to_o bond_n as_o well_o as_o they_o and_o we_o know_v not_o how_o soon_o it_o may_v

be_v set_v at_o liberty_n when_o we_o be_v bind_v the_o second_o duty_n be_v to_o remember_v those_o that_o be_v in_o adversity_n this_o imply_v that_o there_o be_v many_o kind_n of_o affliction_n beside_o bond_n for_o that_o be_v one_o kind_a of_o misery_n and_o that_o of_o bond_n be_v not_o always_o single_a but_o join_v often_o with_o other_o vexation_n and_o adversity_n therefore_o not_o only_o they_o that_o be_v in_o bond_n but_o other_o in_o other_o adversity_n must_v be_v remember_v and_o so_o relieve_v and_o comfort_v and_o we_o must_v use_v all_o our_o power_n and_o ability_n which_o god_n have_v give_v we_o to_o remove_v their_o affliction_n and_o make_v their_o condition_n more_o comfortable_a for_o the_o providence_n of_o our_o heavenly_a father_n do_v so_o order_v it_o that_o the_o whole_a body_n and_o all_o the_o member_n of_o the_o church_n shall_v not_o be_v afflict_v at_o one_o time_n but_o while_o some_o be_v afflict_v other_o be_v free_a that_o they_o may_v relieve_v and_o comfort_v their_o brethren_n and_o so_o exercise_v their_o grace_n and_o manifest_v their_o virtue_n and_o the_o affliction_n of_o our_o brethren_n will_v discover_v either_o our_o sincerity_n or_o hypocrisy_n the_o reason_n why_o we_o shall_v remember_v these_o be_v because_o we_o be_v in_o the_o body_n to_o be_v in_o the_o body_n and_o to_o be_v in_o the_o flesh_n be_v scripture-phrase_n and_o signify_v the_o same_o thing_n they_o imply_v that_o there_o be_v some_o in_o the_o body_n and_o some_o out_o of_o the_o body_n the_o one_o live_v the_o other_o dead_a for_o while_o we_o be_v live_v on_o earth_n the_o soul_n which_o be_v the_o principal_a part_n be_v in_o the_o body_n which_o be_v say_v to_o be_v the_o tabernacle_n and_o mansion_n of_o the_o soul_n but_o death_n separate_v they_o and_o dive_v and_o dispossess_v the_o soul_n this_o soul_n in_o it_o solf_n be_v above_o the_o power_n of_o man_n and_o no_o mortal_a hand_n can_v reach_v it_o not_o touch_v it_o immediate_o yet_o because_o of_o the_o body_n which_o be_v so_o near_o unite_v unto_o it_o man_n may_v vex_v and_o torment_v it_o and_o that_o very_a much_o and_o while_o it_o be_v in_o the_o body_n it_o be_v liable_a to_o these_o vexation_n and_o the_o body_n while_o it_o be_v enliven_v by_o the_o soul_n be_v sensible_a of_o many_o misery_n but_o when_o these_o be_v part_v by_o death_n both_o be_v free_a from_o all_o sense_n of_o these_o affliction_n therefore_o say_v our_o saviour_n that_o when_o man_n have_v kill_v the_o body_n after_o that_o they_o have_v no_o more_o that_o they_o can_v do_v luke_n 12._o 4._o all_o this_o be_v presuppose_v the_o apostle_n to_o persuade_v they_o to_o compassion_n towards_o their_o afflict_a brethren_n put_v they_o in_o mind_n of_o their_o present_a condition_n they_o be_v yet_o in_o the_o body_n that_o be_v they_o be_v obnoxious_a to_o the_o same_o adversity_n and_o can_v promise_v to_o themselves_o security_n from_o they_o for_o a_o
