well_o do_v thou_o good_a and_o faithful_a servant_n enter_v into_o the_o joy_n of_o thy_o lord_n this_o shall_v be_v the_o reward_n of_o those_o that_o apply_v their_o heart_n to_o wisdom_n there_o be_v no_o such_o enemy_n to_o repentance_n as_o to_o think_v we_o have_v time_n enough_o hereafter_o which_o make_v a_o man_n say_v when_o any_o good_a motion_n come_v into_o his_o mind_n i_o may_v

will_v pardon_v my_o sin_n if_o i_o true_o repent_v i_o may_v stay_v yet_o like_o the_o sluggard_n who_o turn_v upon_o his_o bed_n like_o a_o door_n upon_o the_o hinge_n and_o say_v as_o in_o prov._n

to_o make_v they_o seem_v more_o than_o they_o be_v and_o they_o that_o do_v so_o never_o apply_v their_o heart_n to_o wisdom_n so_o you_o see_v what_o a_o preservative_n moses_n use_v against_o sin_n and_o pleasure_n he_o keep_v a_o calendar_n as_o it_o be_v of_o his_o day_n which_o call_v upon_o he_o and_o say_v be_v diligent_a for_o thou_o have_v but_o a_o short_a time_n here_o five_o thing_n i_o note_v in_o these_o word_n first_o that_o death_n be_v the_o haven_n of_o every_o man_n and_o woman_n whether_o they_o sit_v in_o the_o throne_n or_o live_v in_o a_o cottage_n at_o last_o we_o

that_o our_o day_n be_v but_o few_o as_o though_o we_o be_v send_v into_o the_o world_n but_o to_o see_v it_o show_v that_o it_o be_v a_o easy_a thing_n for_o a_o man_n to_o number_v his_o day_n they_o be_v so_o few_o four_o the_o aptness_n of_o man_n to_o forget_v death_n as_o we_o have_v often_o experience_v when_o one_o man_n shall_v say_v to_o another_o do_v you_o remember_v where_o you_o be_v to_o go_v to_o morrow_n the_o other_o shall_v answer_v again_o and_o say_v i_o protest_v i_o think_v no_o more_o of_o it_o then_o of_o my_o die_a day_n and_o therefore_o moses_n pray_v to_o the_o lord_n to_o teach_v he_o to_o number_v his_o day_n five_o and_o last_o that_o to_o remember_v how_o short_a a_o time_n we_o have_v to_o live_v we_o may_v apply_v our_o heart_n to_o that_o which_o be_v good_a as_o every_o one_o have_v a_o day_n to_o come_v into_o this_o world_n so_o sure_o they_o shall_v have_v a_o day_n to_o go_v out_o of_o this_o world_n when_o moses_n have_v speak_v of_o some_o which_o live_v seven_o hundred_o year_n and_o another_o that_o live_v eight_o hundred_o year_n and_o another_o that_o live_v nine_o hundred_o year_n at_o last_o come_v in_o mortuus_fw-la est_fw-la he_o die_v therefore_o the_o apostle_n say_v we_o have_v here_o no_o abide_v city_n but_o we_o look_v for_o one_o to_o come_v as_o our_o saviour_n say_v my_o kingdom_n be_v not_o of_o this_o world_n
