A78440	Balaam's wish: a sermon Wherein the vanity of desires without endeavours, in order to the obtaining the death of the upright, and their last end, is opened and applyed. First occasionally preached, and now at the request of some published. By an unworthy messenger of Christ.	Cawton, Thomas, 1637-1677.	1670 (1670)	Wing C1652; ESTC R225053	24,897	113

without_o some_o preface_n of_o honour_n as_o king_n david_n my_o lord_n the_o king_n etc._n etc._n and_o so_o he_o be_v about_o forty_o time_n call_v king_n david_n and_o my_o lord_n the_o king_n david_n in_o one_o chapter_n but_o now_o see_v what_o a_o alteration_n there_o be_v in_o the_o first_o verse_n of_o the_o next_o chapter_n when_o the_o day_n of_o david_n draw_v nigh_o that_o he_o shall_v die_v he_o that_o be_v my_o lord_n the_o king_n so_o often_o a_o little_a before_o now_o he_o come_v to_o die_v be_v plain_a david_n so_o that_o you_o see_v death_n make_v all_o equal_a do_v you_o then_o desire_v to_o die_v the_o death_n of_o a_o great_a man_n sure_o it_o be_v not_o so_o good_a as_o to_o die_v in_o the_o fear_n of_o the_o great_a god_n and_o therefore_o hezekiah_n a_o potent_a and_o noble_a prince_n when_o he_o have_v a_o message_n of_o death_n plead_v not_o remember_v lord_n that_o i_o have_v be_v a_o king_n that_o i_o have_v wear_v the_o crown_n and_o sway_v the_o sceptre_n 38.3_o isa_n 38.3_o but_o remember_v lord_n that_o i_o have_v walk_v before_o thou_o in_o truth_n with_o a_o perfect_a heart_n and_o have_v do_v that_o which_o be_v right_a in_o thy_o sight_n it_o be_v a_o poor_a thing_n in_o death_n to_o have_v be_v salute_v your_o lordship_n and_o your_o ladyship_n your_o honour_n and_o your_o grace_n your_o highness_n and_o your_o majesty_n at_o every_o word_n if_o we_o can_v see_v ourselves_o to_o be_v the_o person_n who_o the_o king_n of_o heaven_n delight_v to_o honour_n four_o another_o have_v rather_o die_v the_o death_n of_o the_o wealthy_a many_o person_n we_o see_v in_o the_o world_n they_o toil_v and_o labour_n and_o sweat_n and_o if_o you_o ask_v they_o the_o reason_n it_o must_v needs_o be_v this_o that_o they_o may_v leave_v something_o behind_o they_o when_o they_o die_v christian_n that_o be_v not_o our_o own_o which_o we_o can_v carry_v with_o we_o into_o another_o world_n the_o rich_a man_n in_o this_o respect_n be_v like_o a_o poor_a man_n that_o be_v invite_v to_o a_o great_a man_n table_n whilst_o he_o be_v there_o he_o make_v use_v of_o the_o plate_n and_o silver_n spoon_n and_o other_o thing_n but_o he_o must_v pocket_v up_o none_o of_o these_o but_o leave_v they_o behind_o he_o when_o he_o go_v thence_o so_o god_n give_v he_o a_o great_a many_o thing_n here_o to_o use_v but_o he_o must_v leave_v they_o all_o at_o death_n or_o just_o as_o it_o be_v with_o traveller_n who_o make_v use_v of_o the_o movable_n of_o a_o inn_n for_o that_o night_n they_o lodge_v there_o but_o the_o next_o morning_n they_o leave_v they_o and_o go_v onward_o in_o their_o journey_n 21.13_o job_n 21.13_o they_o spend_v their_o day_n in_o wealth_n and_o in_o a_o moment_n they_o go_v down_o to_o the_o grave_n who_o will_v not_o choose_v to_o die_v the_o death_n of_o the_o righteous_a rather_o than_o of_o nabal_n or_o the_o rich_a man_n in_o the_o gospel_n what_o a_o vain_a thing_n be_v man_n to_o desire_v to_o die_v rich_a to_o leave_v a_o portion_n of_o good_n behind_o he_o and_o not_o to_o have_v a_o good_a portion_n in_o heaven_n sure_o the_o wealth_n and_o accommodation_n of_o the_o
