Penned at the earnest requests of diuers well affected inhabitantes of the place: and now published as wel for the vse of others, as for the further profit of that particular congregation.

good_a age_n which_o be_v the_o blessing_n of_o god_n whereas_o the_o gorge_v scotfree_a man_n do_v by_o his_o intemperance_n abbreviate_v the_o continuance_n of_o his_o own_o life_n and_o so_o commit_v a_o great_a sin_n in_o the_o breach_n of_o the_o sixth_o commandment_n of_o the_o law_n 20.13_o exod._n 20.13_o further_o the_o poor_a man_n by_o reason_n of_o his_o daily_a labour_n and_o ordinary_a travel_n in_o his_o vocation_n do_v so_o weaken_v the_o force_n &_o power_n of_o his_o body_n for_o the_o time_n as_o that_o in_o the_o evening_n and_o hour_n of_o rest_n he_o refresh_v himself_o with_o great_a pleasure_n have_v that_o sweet_a comfort_n of_o nature_n which_o be_v sleep_n as_o it_o be_v at_o his_o commandment_n whereby_o he_o be_v so_o sufficient_o reviue_v that_o in_o the_o morning_n he_o return_v again_o to_o his_o common_a business_n fresh_a lusty_a joyful_a and_o fit_a for_o his_o work_n whereas_o the_o scotfree_a man_n be_v in_o this_o point_n like_o to_o ahassuerosh_n the_o king_n of_o persia_n of_o who_o we_o read_v in_o the_o book_n of_o hester_n 6.1_o hest_n 6.1_o who_o can_v not_o sleep_v in_o the_o night_n and_o therefore_o call_v for_o the_o book_n of_o the_o record_n or_o chronicle_n of_o the_o land_n that_o by_o peruse_v of_o they_o he_o may_v drive_v out_o the_o time_n of_o the_o night_n our_o scotfree_a man_n consider_v not_o that_o it_o please_v god_n many_o time_n for_o a_o punishment_n to_o they_o to_o withhold_v his_o benefit_n of_o natural_a sleep_n from_o their_o eye_n the_o same_o be_v a_o special_a gift_n of_o he_o for_o the_o preservation_n of_o our_o nature_n which_o otherwise_o without_o the_o same_o can_v not_o possible_o endure_v the_o first_o man_n adam_n can_v not_o sleep_v of_o himself_o until_o the_o lord_n cause_v it_o to_o fall_v upon_o he_o 2.21_o gen._n 2.21_o as_o show_v thereby_o that_o it_o be_v in_o his_o hand_n either_o to_o give_v it_o or_o not_o to_o give_v it_o to_o send_v it_o or_o to_o withdraw_v it_o as_o please_v he_o and_o therefore_o in_o the_o use_n of_o his_o justice_n he_o do_v many_o time_n deprive_v the_o scotfree_a man_n of_o this_o comfort_n suffer_v they_o to_o lie_v toss_v &_o tumble_v upon_o their_o bed_n desire_v this_o ordinary_a refresh_n but_o can_v have_v it_o and_o i_o myself_o have_v hear_v many_o of_o they_o complain_v of_o the_o want_n thereof_o that_o they_o pass_v many_o night_n with_o little_a or_o no_o sleep_n at_o all_o take_v the_o same_o to_o come_v by_o some_o hap_n or_o fortune_n by_o the_o length_n of_o the_o night_n or_o some_o stir_n and_o noise_n not_o consider_v the_o justice_n of_o god_n afflict_v they_o in_o that_o sort_n with_o unrest_n in_o the_o night_n to_o put_v they_o in_o remembrance_n of_o the_o ill_a spend_v of_o the_o day_n which_o thing_n be_v regard_v of_o solomon_n 5.11_o eccl._n 5.11_o make_v he_o to_o affirm_v that_o the_o sleep_n of_o he_o that_o travail_v be_v sweet_a whether_o he_o eat_v little_a or_o much_o but_o the_o satiety_n of_o the_o scotfree_a will_v not_o suffer_v he_o to_o sleep_v and_o again_o the_o heart_n of_o such_o a_o man_n take_v no_o rest_n in_o the_o night_n 2.23_o ib._n 2.23_o moreover_o the_o poor_a man_n by_o reason_n of_o the_o perpetual_a necessity_n of_o his_o life_n be_v so_o well_o accustom_v with_o common_a affliction_n as_o hunger_n loss_n displeasure_n injury_n want_v of_o money_n and_o such_o like_a thing_n as_o that_o it_o be_v no_o trouble_n nor_o disquietness_n unto_o he_o when_o he_o be_v in_o any_o such_o sort_n pinch_v because_o his_o youth_n and_o age_n and_o all_o the_o day_n of_o his_o life_n have_v be_v nothing_o else_o but_o as_o it_o be_v a_o school_n of_o discipline_n and_o furnace_n of_o trial_n to_o he_o and_o therefore_o whatsoever_o cross_n happen_v he_o do_v endure_v it_o with_o patience_n and_o undergo_v it_o with_o contentation_n be_v well_o please_v with_o his_o lot_n but_o the_o rich_a man_n that_o have_v be_v acquaint_v with_o no_o such_o cross_n have_v live_v in_o ease_n wealth_n friendship_n prosperity_n quietness_n pleasure_n and_o delight_n and_o therefore_o not_o know_v what_o affliction_n mean_v when_o he_o by_o the_o hand_n of_o god_n be_v never_o so_o little_o touch_v whether_o it_o be_v with_o a_o injury_n enemy_n hunger_n loss_n of_o child_n land_n or_o wealth_n he_o be_v by_o &_o by_o carry_v away_o beyond_o the_o limit_n of_o all_o reasonable_a patience_n he_o fret_v and_o fume_v and_o take_v on_o like_o a_o mad_a man_n yea_o sometime_o foam_v out_o blasphemy_n against_o god_n and_o complain_v of_o the_o hard_a deal_n of_o god_n towards_o he_o as_o though_o god_n be_v bind_v by_o the_o receit_n of_o some_o benefit_n of_o he_o to_o extend_v always_o the_o part_n of_o love_n &_o courtesy_n for_o show_v of_o thankfulness_n and_o so_o think_v that_o god_n shall_v still_o let_v he_o live_v in_o such_o a_o flourish_a state_n as_o sometime_o he_o do_v when_o he_o feel_v but_o a_o small_a

so_o that_o it_o be_v impossible_a that_o the_o singular_a virtue_n of_o patience_n shall_v possess_v his_o soul_n but_o the_o poor_a man_n be_v prepare_v for_o every_o occasion_n come_v what_o
