so_o we_o look_v down_o upon_o you_o with_o sorrow_n your_o fear_n be_v to_o receive_v punishment_n for_o your_o mis-doing_a and_o our_o sorrow_n be_v that_o we_o must_v pronounce_v it_o yet_o not_o

the_o delinquent_n unto_o death_n that_o he_o may_v find_v life_n in_o death_n and_o so_o see_v heaven_n upon_o earth_n before_o the_o world_n leave_v he_o and_o he_o the_o world_n concern_v the_o knowledge_n of_o your_o fault_n that_o will_v best_o appear_v by_o your_o acknowledgement_n thereof_o for_o without_o this_o acknowledgement_n there_o can_v be_v no_o sound_a repentance_n thus_o do_v god_n himself_o deal_v with_o his_o servant_n david_n in_o those_o his_o unclean_a and_o bloody_a fact_n first_o to_o bring_v he_o to_o the_o sight_n of_o those_o sin_n he_o put_v the_o case_n by_o another_o and_o so_o bring_v david_n to_o pronounce_v sentence_n upon_o himself_o so_o my_o desire_n be_v that_o each_o of_o you_o will_v make_v david_n case_n your_o own_o and_o as_o in_o the_o like_a fact_n you_o will_v be_v ready_a in_o another_o man_n case_n to_o pronounce_v sentence_n as_o he_o do_v against_o the_o man_n that_o have_v deal_v so_o cruel_o so_o now_o to_o make_v his_o example_n your_o pattern_n to_o make_v it_o your_o own_o case_n that_o as_o he_o be_v convince_v by_o the_o prophet_n to_o be_v the_o man_n who_o he_o have_v condemn_v in_o the_o like_a case_n of_o another_o be_v thereby_o bring_v to_o a_o acknowledgement_n of_o his_o own_o sin_n and_o so_o receive_v a_o gracious_a acquittance_n so_o you_o also_o be_v now_o convict_v of_o your_o heavy_a and_o bloody_a fact_n by_o such_o apparent_a evidence_n may_v by_o david_n example_n be_v bring_v to_o a_o acknowledgement_n thereof_o and_o so_o with_o david_n obtain_v a_o answer_n of_o the_o pardon_n of_o your_o sin_n howsoever_o for_o the_o satisfy_n of_o the_o world_n and_o humble_v of_o the_o flesh_n you_o be_v like_a with_o david_n to_o answer_v blood_n for_o blood_n the_o second_o thing_n i_o note_v be_v correction_n but_o the_o better_a to_o prepare_v you_o for_o it_o tell_v i_o you_o poor_a soul_n that_o have_v have_v a_o great_a portion_n of_o sorrow_n by_o your_o imprisonment_n if_o these_o three_o thing_n do_v not_o now_o trouble_v you_o more_o than_o ever_o before_o that_o be_v sorrow_n shame_n and_o fear_n 1_o sorrow_n for_o your_o life_n past_o so_o wicked_o miss_v 2_o shame_n for_o your_o present_a fact_n 3_o fear_v not_o so_o much_o of_o your_o present_a punishment_n which_o end_v in_o the_o punishment_n as_o of_o the_o judgement_n to_o come_v bring_v with_o it_o eternal_a torment_n and_o yet_o begin_v but_o where_o the_o other_o end_n to_o begin_v with_o this_o last_o because_o if_o it_o have_v be_v well_o remember_v by_o you_o it_o may_v have_v prevent_v the_o former_a and_o yet_o be_v well_o apply_v may_v release_v you_o from_o the_o latter_a that_o you_o may_v take_v a_o deep_a impression_n of_o that_o great_a and_o general_a assize_n be_v you_o advise_v not_o so_o much_o to_o look_v upon_o we_o who_o have_v only_o power_n to_o kill_v the_o body_n as_o to_o look_v up_o unto_o the_o lord_n who_o have_v power_n to_o destroy_v both_o body_n and_o soul_n and_o remember_v his_o last_o and_o dreadful_a come_n in_o the_o cloud_n where_o each_o of_o you_o must_v appear_v personal_o without_o deputy_n delay_n or_o advocate_n to_o receive_v according_a to_o your_o work_n which_o you_o have_v do_v in_o your_o body_n be_v they_o good_a or_o evil_n and_o that_o you_o may_v prevent_v the_o extremity_n of_o that_o judgement_n my_o advice_n unto_o you_o be_v that_o you_o will_v erectin_n a_o judgement_n seat_n your_o own_o soul_n judge_v yourselves_o by_o the_o evidence_n of_o your_o own_o conscience_n that_o so_o you_o may_v not_o be_v judge_v of_o the_o lord_n so_o do_v david_n obtain_v the_o pardon_n of_o his_o sin_n he_o have_v no_o soon_o judge_v himself_o for_o his_o sin_n and_o confess_v they_o unto_o the_o lord_n but_o the_o lord_n forgive_v he_o the_o iniquity_n of_o they_o all_o and_o no_o soon_o shall_v you_o acknowledge_v yourselves_o worthy_a to_o die_v but_o the_o lord_n will_v answer_v you_o you_o shall_v not_o die_v but_o live_v for_o if_o you_o be_v now_o dead_a in_o sin_n by_o harden_v your_o heart_n in_o the_o denial_n thereof_o though_o you_o be_v live_v to_o the_o world_n yet_o you_o be_v dead_a unto_o god_n and_o so_o shall_v never_o die_v out_o of_o the_o punishment_n of_o sin_n how_o soever_o you_o be_v ever_o die_v in_o the_o horror_n thereof_o but_o if_o you_o shall_v now_o dieunto_o sin_n by_o unfeigned_a repentance_n though_o you_o may_v die_v for_o your_o sin_n by_o the_o hand_n of_o man_n yet_o you_o shall_v live_v for_o ever_o without_o sin_n by_o the_o power_n of_o god_n and_o therefore_o howsoever_o you_o must_v die_v temporal_o to_o satisfy_v the_o law_n yet_o remember_v this_o be_v

to_o point_v at_o some_o thing_n especial_o remarkable_a in_o this_o trial_n for_o the_o more_o clear_a justify_n and_o benefit_n thereof_o as_o first_o that_o whereas_o out_o of_o the_o mouth_n of_o two_o or_o three_o witness_n every_o truth_n shall_v stand_v we_o have_v not_o only_o here_o apparent_a circumstance_n even_o from_o the_o mouth_n and_o action_n of_o the_o delinquent_n to_o

this_o trial_n that_o howsoever_o the_o accuse_a be_v obstinate_a in_o deny_v or_o faint_v in_o acknowledge_v the_o fact_n yet_o as_o there_o be_v no_o just_a reason_n why_o they_o shall_v except_v

in_o any_o trial_n desire_v the_o discovery_n of_o the_o truth_n and_o approve_v yea_o applaud_v the_o detection_n thereof_o then_o be_v manifest_a at_o this_o trial_n last_o if_o contrary_n may_v be_v gather_v by_o their_o contrary_n see_v it_o be_v the_o policy_n and_o malice_n of_o satan_n then_o to_o resist_v the_o light_n most_o when_o it_o shives_z most_o clear_o may_v not_o the_o

that_o the_o one_o shall_v be_v penitent_a and_o confess_v the_o fact_n as_o worlich_n in_o part_n have_v do_v by_o refer_v himself_o to_o the_o mercy_n of_o the_o judge_n the_o other_o shall_v
