you_o must_v labour_v to_o digest_v by_o prayer_n and_o meditation_n and_o make_v of_o all_o particular_a application_n unto_o your_o own_o soul_n and_o second_o when_o you_o be_v speak_v to_o god_n in_o prayer_n and_o supplication_n then_o be_v a_o fit_a season_n to_o be_v alone_o and_o in_o your_o secret_a recess_n to_o pour_v out_o your_o heart_n unto_o the_o lord_n my_o further_a advice_n unto_o you_o in_o love_n be_v that_o you_o will_v beware_v of_o idleness_n and_o sloth_n although_o i_o suspect_v you_o not_o nor_o can_v accuse_v you_o yet_o in_o love_n to_o your_o precious_a soul_n i_o can_v but_o premonish_v you_o both_o to_o avoid_v the_o sin_n of_o idleness_n and_o the_o miserable_a consequence_n thereof_o for_o if_o the_o devil_n can_v prevail_v by_o his_o temptation_n to_o gain_v you_o to_o idleness_n and_o sluggishness_n and_o to_o the_o neglect_n of_o your_o duty_n which_o concern_v both_o your_o general_n and_o particular_a call_n than_o he_o will_v get_v ground_n of_o you_o and_o lay_v his_o snare_n and_o gin_n to_o entrap_v you_o and_o so_o go_v away_o conqueror_n that_o therefore_o you_o may_v prevent_v the_o mischievous_a design_n of_o satan_n i_o counsel_v you_o to_o be_v industrious_a in_o your_o particular_a call_n and_o employment_n with_o diligence_n and_o care_n provide_v that_o you_o above_o all_o
discover_v and_o remove_v some_o impediment_n and_o obstruction_n which_o as_o a_o remora_n to_o a_o ship_n stop_v the_o sail_v or_o as_o a_o stumbling-block_n lay_v in_o the_o way_n of_o such_o who_o run_v a_o race_n hinder_v their_o passage_n after_o the_o removal_n of_o those_o hindrance_n some_o duty_n be_v commend_v to_o point_n of_o practice_n and_o for_o a_o conclusion_n some_o ground_n of_o
