object_n but_o some_o may_v object_v and_o say_v have_v not_o christ_n abolish_v death_n why_o then_o do_v the_o righteous_a die_n answ_n i_o answer_v he_o have_v abolish_v death_n as_o he_o have_v abolish_v sin_n now_o he_o have_v not_o take_v sin_n quite_o away_o from_o we_o for_o we_o see_v it_o do_v still_o remain_v in_o we_o neither_o have_v he_o quite_o abolish_v death_n from_o the_o

we_o into_o a_o better_a life_n christ_n have_v take_v away_o the_o sting_n both_o of_o sin_n and_o death_n though_o not_o the_o thing_n themselves_o away_o from_o we_o yet_o he_o will_v one_o day_n free_v we_o from_o they_o both_o so_o than_o the_o righteous_a must_v suffer_v death_n as_o well_o as_o the_o wicked_a though_o not_o in_o the_o same_o kind_n let_v no_o man_n then_o look_v to_o be_v exempt_v from_o death_n for_o his_o righteousness_n nor_o from_o any_o outward_a misery_n that_o may_v befall_v the_o son_n of_o adam_n nay_o if_o we_o be_v the_o servant_n of_o christ_n we_o must_v look_v for_o a_o great_a share_n in_o these_o then_o other_o man_n great_a cross_n great_a affliction_n great_a sickness_n and_o hard_a pang_n of_o death_n do_v oft_o befall_v the_o righteous_a as_o it_o do_v unto_o this_o our_o brother_n who_o though_o he_o be_v old_a and_o strike_v in_o year_n yet_o the_o pang_n of_o death_n be_v strong_a upon_o he_o those_o who_o god_n will_v make_v heir_n of_o eternal_a life_n he_o suffer_v they_o to_o have_v a_o great_a portion_n in_o these_o affliction_n but_o the_o wicked_a be_v fat_a and_o full_a and_o die_v with_o their_o bone_n full_a of_o

for_o his_o righteousness_n he_o shall_v be_v free_a second_o consider_v we_o here_o how_o few_o among_o we_o have_v learn_v this_o arithmetic_n namely_o to_o number_v our_o day_n and_o they_o be_v but_o short_a even_o a_o span_n long_o who_o be_v there_o almost_o that_o think_v on_o death_n who_o prepare_v himself_o for_o it_o and_o yet_o all_o even_o the_o most_o righteous_a must_v die_v for_o god_n have_v place_v that_o fiery_a blade_n of_o death_n at_o the_o entrance_n into_o the_o paradise_n of_o heaven_n so_o that_o none_o can_v enter_v before_o they_o taste_v of_o death_n and_o all_o must_v taste_v of_o it_o yea_o the_o most_o righteous_a be_v not_o exempt_v from_o the_o stroke_n of_o death_n this_o than_o shall_v teach_v we_o to_o labour_v to_o draw_v our_o heart_n from_o the_o love_n of_o this_o present_a life_n and_o what_o can_v better_a persuade_v we_o and_o wean_v we_o from_o the_o love_n of_o this_o world_n than_o a_o due_a consideration_n of_o death_n we_o know_v we_o must_v all_o die_v and_o therefore_o we_o shall_v prepare_v ourselves_o for_o it_o if_o any_o profane_a person_n among_o we_o know_v that_o this_o night_n must_v be_v his_o last_o night_n and_o that_o now_o he_o have_v no_o long_o to_o live_v will_v not_o this_o amaze_v he_o and_o make_v he_o bethink_v himself_o and_o to_o prepare_v for_o death_n if_o
