Preached and written by the reverend & godly learned M. Iohn More, late preacher in the citie of Norwitch. And now first published by M. Nicholas Bovvnd: whereunto he hath adioyned of his owne, A sermon of comfort for the afflicted: and, A short treatise of a contented mind.

careful_a how_o we_o may_v be_v discharge_v before_o the_o judgement_n seat_n of_o god_n and_o so_o come_v to_o eternal_a life_n more_o careful_a i_o say_v than_o we_o have_v be_v the_o matter_n

the_o loss_n of_o the_o life_n everlasting_a o_o lord_n how_o careless_a be_v we_o we_o never_o care_v for_o it_o we_o never_o ride_v nor_o run_v for_o it_o we_o never_o break_v our_o sleep_n for_o it_o we_o shall_v see_v man_n in_o this_o behalf_n as_o senseless_a as_o can_v be_v utter_o overwhelm_v with_o a_o brutish_a security_n &_o yet_o we_o think_v ourselves_o notable_a christian_n and_o to_o have_v wind_v up_o the_o matter_n very_o cunning_o when_o we_o can_v have_v give_v some_o general_a answer_n as_o to_o say_v even_o as_o it_o please_v god_n but_o as_o he_o have_v reveal_v

of_o soul_n and_o body_n to_o answer_v before_o the_o great_a judge_n jesus_n christ_n and_o yet_o as_o though_o the_o matter_n be_v nothing_o we_o will_v not_o now_o in_o this_o time_n of_o mercy_n be_v careful_a how_o we_o may_v answer_v it_o but_o only_o wipe_v it_o away_o with_o a_o word_n even_o as_o it_o please_v god_n say_v we_o even_o as_o it_o please_v god_n true_a it_o be_v that_o all_o

never_o so_o close_o with_o as_o it_o please_v god_n as_o it_o please_v god_n we_o shall_v find_v that_o it_o please_v god_n to_o punish_v with_o everlasting_a destruction_n such_o horrible_a

we_o in_o the_o fear_n of_o god_n begin_v to_o seek_v careful_o how_o we_o may_v be_v discharge_v in_o the_o day_n of_o judgement_n and_o so_o come_v to_o everlasting_a life_n it_o be_v a_o weighty_a matter_n it_o be_v a_o great_a matter_n it_o must_v be_v look_v unto_o it_o pass_v a_o westminster_n matter_n this_o touch_v land_n good_n and_o life_n everlasting_a the_o reason_n that_o make_v man_n so_o reckless_a and_o negligent_a in_o care_v for_o the_o heavenly_a life_n be_v because_o we_o dream_v it_o to_o be_v but_o a_o easy_a matter_n to_o come_v to_o everlasting_a life_n we_o think_v it_o but_o a_o small_a matter_n and_o soon_o get_v and_o therefore_o we_o busy_v ourselves_o the_o less_o about_o it_o true_a it_o be_v we_o will_v not_o say_v so_o with_o our_o tongue_n and_o lip_n that_o it_o be_v but_o a_o small_a matter_n but_o it_o be_v evident_a that_o we_o accept_v it_o so_o in_o our_o heart_n see_v we_o take_v so_o little_a pain_n about_o it_o for_o that_o we_o may_v obtain_v the_o thing_n that_o we_o judge_v hard_a to_o come_v by_o we_o do_v not_o use_v small_a pain_n but_o great_a care_n and_o labour_n for_o otherwise_o we_o think_v that_o can_v not_o be_v have_v that_o be_v it_o that_o make_v we_o so_o careful_a for_o the_o bodily_a life_n because_o we_o see_v it_o so_o hard_a a_o thing_n that_o do_v we_o what_o we_o can_v all_o be_v little_a enough_o to_o get_v we_o our_o live_n so_o that_o if_o we_o be_v persuade_v that_o if_o it_o be_v as_o hard_a a_o matter_n to_o get_v everlasting_a life_n as_o we_o see_v it_o be_v to_o get_v a_o temporal_a thing_n we_o will_v bestow_v as_o much_o pain_n in_o the_o one_o as_o in_o the_o other_o and_o therefore_o say_v what_o we_o will_v our_o own_o heart_n condemn_v we_o that_o we_o count_v it_o but_o a_o easy_a matter_n and_o therefore_o be_v too_o negligent_a to_o provide_v for_o it_o and_o again_o the_o grief_n and_o misery_n of_o our_o soul_n we_o do_v not_o feel_v half_a so_o much_o as_o the_o pain_n and_o grief_n of_o our_o body_n and_o therefore_o that_o make_v we_o to_o be_v so_o careful_a to_o provide_v remedy_n for_o the_o one_o and_o utter_o to_o neglect_v the_o other_o if_o our_o body_n be_v but_o a_o little_a touch_v with_o sickness_n we_o can_v feel_v it_o straightway_o we_o can_v complain_v sigh_n and_o groan_v and_o because_o we_o feel_v the_o pain_n nip_v we_o there_o be_v ride_v and_o run_v for_o the_o physician_n no_o cost_n no_o labour_n spare_v yea_o if_o our_o little_a finger_n be_v but_o cut_v we_o make_v a_o do_v in_o wrap_v and_o salve_v &_o all_o because_o we_o feel_v the_o grief_n of_o it_o &_o yet_o for_o all_o that_o the_o silly_a poor_a soul_n that_o same_o nice_a body_n be_v pain_v with_o sickness_n even_o unto_o death_n wound_v unto_o eternal_a

senseless_a block_n we_o feel_v it_o never_o a_o whit_n it_o be_v no_o grief_n unto_o we_o no_o pain_n unto_o we_o at_o all_o these_o disease_n of_o our_o soul_n do_v not_o grieve_v we_o a_o whit_n and_o therefore_o we_o be_v not_o careful_a to_o run_v to_o the_o physician_n jesus_n christ_n to_o be_v cure_v if_o the_o body_n be_v but_o a_o little_a pinch_v with_o cold_a nakedness_n hunger_n or_o any_o other_o calamity_n we_o

can_v abide_v it_o it_o grieve_v we_o we_o be_v marveilous_o trouble_v with_o it_o and_o therefore_o be_v we_o so_o careful_a to_o provide_v meat_n for_o the_o body_n and_o clothes_n for_o our_o back_n we_o have_v never_o do_v with_o that_o all_o be_v too_o little_a that_o we_o can_v cram_v into_o this_o our_o filthy_a paunch_n and_o to_o hang_v upon_o our_o lazy_a back_n all_o be_v too_o little_a we_o have_v never_o do_v purchase_v and_o prepare_v for_o it_o what_o shall_v i_o say_v will_v towneship_n and_o lordship_n will_v not_o serve_v to_o fill_v this_o our_o greedy_a maw_n and_o clothe_v our_o fine_a and_o delicate_a back_n and_o yet_o in_o the_o mean_a time_n alas_o our_o poor_a soul_n within_o starve_a with_o hunger_n pine_v even_o to_o death_n with_o cold_a and_o nakedness_n and_o we_o not_o a_o whit_n careful_a to_o provide_v for_o it_o the_o bread_n of_o life_n the_o food_n of_o life_n to_o relieve_v his_o hunger_n nor_o the_o righteousness_n of_o christ_n to_o clothe_v the_o nakedness_n of_o it_o lest_o it_o die_v eternal_o we_o be_v not_o a_o whit_n careful_a for_o that_o because_o we_o feel_v nothing_o at_o all_o the_o misery_n &_o danger_n that_o our_o soul_n be_v in_o the_o whole_a world_n be_v asleep_a in_o sin_n wallow_v and_o tumble_v themselves_o therein_o in_o peril_n and_o danger_n of_o eternal_a destruction_n and_o hell_n fire_n everlasting_a and_o yet_o do_v not_o see_v it_o they_o think_v themselves_o in_o no_o danger_n and_o that_o make_v man_n so_o careless_a that_o they_o never_o seek_v for_o any_o remedy_n oh_o a_o hard_a world_n a_o hard_a world_n god_n help_n never_o so_o hard_a a_o world_n we_o have_v much_o a_o do_v to_o live_v it_o be_v so_o hard_a a_o world_n thus_o can_v we_o say_v touch_v the_o body_n never_o so_o much_o poverty_n and_o such_o exclamation_n and_o outcry_n for_o the_o pinch_a of_o the_o body_n as_o be_v marvellous_a and_o i_o partly_o believe_v they_o to_o be_v true_a but_o in_o the_o mean_a time_n in_o this_o great_a misery_n and_o peril_n of_o our_o soul_n in_o the_o great_a hunger_n of_o our_o soul_n who_o do_v exclaim_v upon_o that_o skant_o the_o hundred_o person_n and_o although_o it_o be_v exclaim_v upon_o yet_o it_o be_v but_o cold_o look_v unto_o for_o the_o remedy_n of_o it_o other_o thing_n yet_o touch_v the_o hunger_n and_o harm_n of_o the_o body_n they_o be_v look_v unto_o to_o be_v remedy_v and_o this_o hunger_n of_o our_o soul_n which_o bring_v to_o eternal_a death_n be_v smooth_o pass_v over_o i_o can_v not_o see_v but_o it_o be_v the_o lord_n just_a scourge_n to_o punish_v we_o with_o our_o rod_n in_o send_v such_o scarsenesse_n in_o so_o great_a plenty_n because_o we_o will_v needs_o contrary_a to_o his_o commandment_n be_v more_o careful_a for_o our_o bodily_a life_n then_o for_o our_o heavenly_a life_n for_o if_o we_o do_v chief_o and_o above_o all_o seek_v for_o the_o kingdom_n of_o heaven_n 33._o god_n give_v his_o promise_n that_o all_o other_o thing_n needful_a shall_v be_v minister_v unto_o we_o but_o because_o we_o will_v needs_o be_v wise_a than_o god_n like_o a_o young_a scholar_n to_o set_v he_o to_o school_v and_o whether_o he_o will_v or_o not_o needs_o before_o the_o kingdom_n of_o heaven_n seek_v the_o kingdom_n of_o this_o world_n he_o lay_v our_o own_o devise_n upon_o our_o own_o neck_n and_o give_v we_o neither_o the_o one_o nor_o the_o other_o therefore_o let_v we_o repent_v in_o time_n for_o a_o judgement_n will_v come_v there_o be_v no_o remedy_n we_o must_v all_o appear_v there_o be_v no_o

easy_a a_o matter_n as_o man_n think_v the_o lord_n jesus_n tell_v we_o so_o the_o way_n to_o the_o devil_n and_o eternal_a destruction_n be_v easy_a 13._o broad_a and_o wide_a and_o many_o find_v

it_o be_v not_o a_o tush_o with_o thy_o mouth_n and_o a_o fillip_n with_o the_o finger_n and_o three_o word_n speak_v as_o they_o say_v at_o a_o man_n death_n that_o will_v bring_v a_o man_n to_o

well_o try_v and_o examine_v ourselves_o we_o shall_v find_v it_o fresh_a and_o new_a among_o a_o very_a few_o or_o none_o of_o we_o but_o so_o old_a that_o it_o be_v even_o at_o the_o last_o cast_v

which_o be_v very_o rare_a in_o our_o day_n and_o must_v be_v new_a fresh_a and_o rife_o among_o we_o there_o be_v no_o remedy_n or_o sure_o the_o lord_n will_v begin_v a_o new_a work_n among_o we_o he_o can_v abide_v to_o hear_v his_o commandment_n so_o contemptuous_o and_o despiteful_o tread_v under_o our_o foot_n therefore_o let_v we_o be_v careful_a in_o the_o fear_n of_o god_n to_o amend_v
