may_v follow_v such_o a_o trouble_n but_o a_o gracious_a heart_n count_v his_o condition_n the_o better_a for_o such_o trouble_n at_o first_o and_o count_v it_o a_o mercy_n that_o god_n will_v any_o

and_o although_o he_o do_v pray_v constant_o to_o be_v deliver_v from_o those_o trouble_n yet_o he_o will_v not_o have_v be_v without_o they_o for_o the_o world_n neither_o will_v he_o go_v back_o to_o his_o former_a condition_n though_o he_o be_v sure_o thereby_o to_o be_v rid_v of_o his_o trouble_n again_o when_o a_o gracious_a soul_n do_v get_v peace_n he_o do_v not_o content_v himself_o bare_o with_o peace_n but_o he_o examine_v what_o manner_n of_o peace_n he_o have_v get_v whether_o it_o be_v a_o holy_a place_n yea_o or_o no_o whether_o it_o be_v better_a than_o his_o trouble_n for_o say_v he_o although_o i_o want_v peace_n and_o i_o seek_v for_o that_o yet_o the_o lord-knows_a that_o be_v not_o all_o i_o seek_v for_o i_o seek_v for_o holiness_n and_o for_o communion_n

far_o off_o from_o god_n therefore_o unless_o he_o can_v see_v his_o peace_n be_v a_o holy_a gracious_a peace_n accompany_v with_o the_o fruit_n of_o the_o spirit_n and_o with_o communion_n with_o god_n it_o will_v not_o please_v he_o but_o if_o the_o heart_n be_v carnal_a under_o trouble_n it_o be_v careless_a under_o a_o calm_a and_o so_o it_o have_v freedom_n from_o the_o storm_n it_o be_v enough_o it_o be_v a_o mistake_n therefore_o when_o you_o say_v that_o the_o people_n of_o god_n do_v measure_v their_o condition_n by_o the_o peaceableness_n of_o it_o no_o no_o they_o measure_v it_o
