of_o the_o time_n the_o word_n be_v these_o and_o that_o cosider_v the_o season_n it_o be_v now_o time_n for_o we_o to_o awake_v out_o of_o sleep_n in_o which_o verse_n he_o tell_v we_o that_o it_o

convenient_a to_o declare_v unto_o you_o what_o be_v mean_v by_o every_o one_o of_o these_o word_n to_o the_o end_n that_o that_o which_o i_o be_o about_o to_o teach_v may_v be_v more_o manifest_a and_o plain_a to_o you_o that_o be_v my_o hearer_n know_v you_o therefore_o that_o by_o sleep_n he_o mean_v sin_n and_o a_o certain_a sluggishness_n and_o drowsiness_n to_o embrace_v the_o gospel_n to_o hear_v god_n word_n and_o to_o frame_v and_o fashion_v our_o life_n there_o after_o by_o awake_v out_o of_o sleep_n he_o mean_v a_o certain_a desire_n and_o readiness_n to_o do_v our_o duty_n and_o such_o thing_n as_o god_n require_v of_o we_o in_o his_o word_n aristole_n therefore_o do_v very_o well_o and_o true_o call_v wake_v a_o liberty_n or_o freedom_n of_o the_o sense_n and_o he_o call_v sleep_v a_o band_n or_o imprysoninge_v of_o they_o for_o when_o a_o man_n be_v a_o sleep_n he_o have_v all_o his_o sense_n so_o tie_v up_o &_o imprison_v that_o he_o have_v neither_o eye_n to_o see_v ear_n to_o hear_v nose_n to_o smell_n hand_n to_o touch_v foot_n to_o go_v nor_o heart_n to_o conceive_v but_o be_v like_a unto_o a_o dead_a corpse_n that_o lie_v rot_v in_o the_o grave_n but_o

therefore_o the_o apostle_n say_v it_o be_v now_o time_n for_o we_o to_o awake_v out_o of_o sleep_n as_o though_o he_o shall_v have_v say_v before_o our_o regeneration_n before_o god_n have_v give_v
