heart_n can_v desire_v even_o the_o fullness_n of_o that_o true_a happiness_n which_o be_v all_o that_o you_o or_o any_o man_n can_v desire_v be_v only_o to_o be_v seek_v in_o christ_n in_o who_o it_o

with_o the_o breath_n of_o his_o mouth_n and_o turn_v the_o storm_n into_o a_o calm_a he_o do_v not_o suffer_v they_o so_o much_o as_o to_o weep_v or_o mourn_v but_o rather_o minister_v continual_a matter_n of_o joy_n and_o comfort_n unto_o they_o nay_o as_o we_o read_v mark._n 2._o vers_fw-la 18._o it_o be_v a_o solecism_n for_o they_o to_o fast_o while_o he_o be_v with_o they_o when_o johns_n disciple_n or_o the_o pharisee_n come_v unto_o he_o and_o demand_v of_o he_o why_o do_v the_o disciple_n of_o john_n and_o of_o the_o pharisee_n fast_n but_o thy_o disciple_n fast_o not_o jesus_n say_v unto_o they_o can_v the_o child_n of_o the_o bridegroom_n fast_o while_o the_o bridegroom_n be_v with_o they_o as_o long_o as_o they_o have_v the_o bridegroom_n with_o they_o they_o can_v fast_v but_o the_o day_n will_v come_v when_o the_o bridegroom_n shall_v be_v take_v away_o from_o they_o and_o then_o shall_v they_o fast_v in_o those_o day_n thus_o you_o see_v a_o great_a difference_n betwixt_o the_o estate_n of_o his_o disciple_n while_o he_o be_v with_o they_o and_o while_o he_o be_v take_v from_o they_o the_o one_o be_v a_o estate_n of_o joy_n and_o contentment_n without_o bodily_a grievance_n or_o molestation_n the_o other_o have_v his_o joy_n and_o internal_a comfort_n mix_v with_o sorrow_n of_o bodily_a discontentment_n what_o be_v then_o the_o reason_n of_o this_o difference_n sure_o it_o be_v our_o saviour_n will_n and_o pleasure_n in_o afford_v these_o contentment_n which_o do_v accompany_v his_o bodily_a presence_n here_o on_o earth_n to_o exhibit_v a_o
