adversity_n though_o the_o stock_n they_o match_v their_o child_n in_o be_v never_o so_o infect_v and_o blast_v with_o vice_n and_o all_o manner_n of_o ungodliness_n yet_o if_o rich_a and_o mighty_a

if_o we_o will_v be_v true_o honourable_a we_o must_v not_o place_v our_o trust_n in_o prince_n nor_o in_o any_o thing_n in_o the_o world_n but_o in_o the_o lord_n alone_o which_o will_v be_v

to_o consider_v of_o pleasure_n and_o delight_n which_o the_o profane_a epicure_n of_o our_o age_n do_v so_o much_o d●ale_v upon_o which_o vain_a pleasure_n and_o please_a vanity_n though_o they_o be_v many_o in_o number_n yet_o may_v they_o be_v comprise_v under_o these_o head_n 1._o pleasure_n of_o the_o flesh_n pride_n in_o apparel_n beauty_n vain_a glory_n and_o popular_a applause_n we_o will_v begin_v with_o the_o first_o which_o for_o method_n sake_n we_o will_v subdivide_v into_o these_o particular_n 1_o pleasure_n of_o the_o body_n 2_o belly_n 3_o eye_n and_o 4_o ear_n but_o first_o of_o pleasure_n in_o general_a and_o afterward_o we_o will_v descend_v into_o the_o particular_n pleasure_n be_v so_o far_o from_o profit_v we_o for_o our_o soul_n or_o our_o body_n as_o that_o many_o time_n through_o the_o corruption_n of_o our_o nature_n which_o want_v wisdom_n to_o use_v they_o aright_o they_o be_v the_o cause_n of_o much_o hurt_n to_o both_o but_o herein_o i_o will_v not_o be_v mistake_v as_o if_o i_o seem_v to_o condemn_v all_o pleasure_n as_o unlawful_a for_o christian_n to_o use_v but_o because_o the_o carnal_a world_n be_v ready_a to_o plead_v for_o baal_n and_o so_o through_o inordinate_a love_n of_o they_o be_v ready_a to_o prize_v they_o above_o their_o worth_n we_o will_v therefore_o dive_v into_o they_o and_o for_o trial_n bring_v they_o to_o the_o touchstone_n of_o god_n word_n by_o which_o we_o will_v discover_v which_o be_v good_a and_o lawful_a and_o how_o far_o they_o may_v be_v use_v of_o god_n child_n and_o how_o they_o may_v be_v abuse_v to_o which_o end_n we_o be_v to_o know_v pleasure_n be_v of_o three_o kind_n 1_o holy_a sort_n pleasure_n be_v of_o three_o sort_n and_o divine_a 2_o temporal_a and_o earthly_a 3_o carnal_a and_o sinful_a 1_o holy_a and_o divine_a pleasure_n be_v when_o we_o can_v rejoice_v in_o the_o lord_n and_o be_v glad_a when_o we_o enjoy_v his_o gift_n and_o grace_n of_o his_o spirit_n here_o so_o as_o we_o have_v a_o sense_n and_o feel_n of_o those_o joy_n which_o he_o have_v prepare_v for_o we_o in_o the_o life_n to_o come_v unto_o these_o pleasure_n we_o be_v exhort_v in_o

pleasure_n which_o the_o child_n of_o god_n ought_v to_o delight_v themselves_o in_o as_o be_v in_o itself_o most_o excellent_a sweet_a and_o comfortable_a but_o of_o this_o pleasure_n we_o will_v speak_v in_o a_o more_o fit_a place_n the_o second_o kind_n of_o pleasure_n pleasure_n the_o second_o sort_n of_o pleasure_n be_v temporal_a and_o earthly_a which_o pleasure_n in_o their_o own_o nature_n be_v good_a and_o in_o respect_n of_o the_o use_n of_o they_o to_o we_o of_o a_o indifferent_a nature_n good_a to_o those_o which_o have_v grace_n to_o use_v they_o well_o but_o very_o pernicious_a to_o they_o that_o abuse_v they_o now_o by_o these_o temporal_a pleasure_n we_o be_v to_o understand_v those_o which_o consist_v in_o meat_n drink_n and_o apparel_n and_o all_o other_o necessary_n for_o the_o sustentation_n of_o our_o natural_a life_n now_o these_o be_v good_a in_o their_o own_o nature_n as_o they_o be_v the_o gift_n of_o god_n which_o he_o have_v provide_v for_o his_o child_n in_o the_o creation_n &_o bestow_v they_o upon_o his_o servant_n as_o encouragement_n to_o move_v they_o to_o walk_v cheerful_o in_o the_o practice_n of_o piety_n for_o as_o that_o

godly_a faithful_a minister_n in_o their_o life_n &_o health_n i_o fear_v i_o they_o deceive_v themselves_o to_o think_v that_o the_o minister_n can_v do_v they_o any_o good_a by_o his_o own_o power_n and_o presence_n no_o no_o he_o can_v but_o declare_v their_o remission_n of_o their_o sin_n upon_o their_o repentance_n if_o then_o they_o do_v true_o repent_v they_o of_o their_o sin_n and_o resolve_v from_o the_o bottom_n of_o their_o heart_n to_o lead_v new_a life_n let_v they_o not_o doubt_v but_o they_o shall_v receive_v much_o comfort_n by_o god_n blessing_n from_o they_o for_o to_o

life_n and_o let_v they_o be_v dear_a and_o precious_a unto_o you_o and_o honour_v they_o for_o their_o work_n sake_n but_o here_o may_v some_o object_n and_o say_v what_o a_o stir_n be_v here_o for_o the_o salvation_n of_o the_o soul_n here_o be_v more_o ado_n than_o needs_o we_o may_v provide_v for_o that_o at_o our_o leisure_n &_o there_o be_v no_o time_n unfit_a to_o repent_v and_o turn_v to_o the_o lord_n he_o be_v a_o god_n of_o mercy_n he_o will_v have_v mercy_n upon_o our_o soul_n whensoever_o we_o repent_v and_o turn_v to_o he_o do_v he_o not_o show_v mercy_n to_o the_o thief_n at_o
