text_n make_v to_o yourselves_o friend_n there_o seem_v to_o be_v a_o special_a emphasis_n in_o every_o word_n which_o according_o be_v considerable_a of_o we_o i._o in_o the_o word_n friend_n there_o be_v a_o special_a importance_n in_o that_o namely_o to_o guide_v and_o direct_v they_o in_o the_o manage_n and_o order_v of_o their_o liberality_n that_o they_o do_v it_o with_o the_o best_a

otherwise_o it_o be_v not_o bestow_v but_o cast_v away_o to_o make_v friend_n of_o a_o estate_n be_v so_o to_o dispose_v it_o as_o that_o those_o who_o do_v partake_v of_o it_o may_v indeed_o become_v friend_n from_o it_o they_o be_v not_o likely_a to_o receive_v other_o into_o everlasting_a habitation_n which_o have_v no_o interest_n in_o they_o themselves_o ii_o for_o the_o word_n make_v there_o be_v some_o force_n also_o as_o i_o conceive_v in_o that_o to_o teach_v man_n not_o only_o to_o show_v mercy_n to_o their_o near_a relation_n and_o such_o as_o be_v friend_n already_o from_o the_o

man_n be_v not_o so_o much_o friend_n to_o other_o as_o rather_o in_o conclusion_n to_o themselves_o and_o provide_v for_o their_o own_o accommodation_n and_o so_o i_o have_v do_v also_o with_o the_o

the_o three_o and_o last_o be_v the_o argument_n or_o ground_n for_o the_o practice_n of_o it_o that_o when_o you_o fail_v they_o may_v receive_v you_o into_o everlasting_a habitation_n in_o which_o

how_o death_n be_v exhibit_v and_o represent_v unto_o we_o and_o that_o be_v as_o a_o fail_v and_o defection_n and_o so_o indeed_o it_o be_v as_o to_o the_o matter_n of_o this_o present_a world_n a_o fail_v of_o strength_n of_o part_n of_o sense_n of_o understanding_n etc._n etc._n all_o fail_v in_o death_n yea_o that_o which_o rich_a man_n have_v in_o their_o life_n most_o make_v of_o it_o must_v then_o fail_v unto_o they_o this_o mammon_n of_o unrighteousness_n which_o be_v here_o mention_v in_o the_o text_n that_o must_v fail_v too_o among_o the_o rest_n and_o according_o some_o

that_o when_o you_o shall_v want_v namely_o that_o wealth_n and_o substance_n and_o riches_n which_o now_o you_o enjoy_v for_o there_o be_v a_o time_n for_o the_o deficiency_n of_o it_o when_o it_o will_v cease_v unto_o you_o as_o for_o rich_a man_n to_o fail_v this_o seem_v to_o be_v very_o inconsonant_a and_o in_o consistent_a it_o be_v almost_o contradictio_fw-la in_o adjecto_fw-la there_o be_v none_o who_o be_v less_o in_o danger_n of_o fail_v in_o the_o sense_n of_o the_o world_n than_o those_o that_o be_v rich_a yea_o but_o yet_o even_o these_o may_v also_o fail_v in_o the_o sense_n of_o the_o text_n they_o may_v fail_v to_o the_o world_n when_o they_o do_v not_o fail_v in_o it_o and_o that_o be_v when_o they_o fail_v from_o it_o and_o leave_v and_o forsake_v it_o when_o their_o life_n once_o fail_v they_o every_o thing_n else_o also_o fail_v which_o be_v pertinent_a to_o it_o and_o so_o their_o riches_n among_o the_o rest_n for_o the_o better_a understanding_n of_o this_o passage_n it_o may_v not_o be_v amiss_o for_o we_o to_o reflect_v upon_o the_o word_n in_o the_o original_a the_o greek_n word_n be_v 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d which_o signify_v eclipsin_n pati_fw-la to_o be_v under_o a_o eclipse_n and_o indeed_o death_n be_v such_o a_o thing_n as_o that_o be_v in_o either_o respect_n whether_o we_o take_v it_o in_o the_o sense_n of_o aggravation_n as_o a_o evil_n enlarge_v or_o whether_o we_o take_v it_o in_o the_o sense_n of_o extenuation_n as_o a_o evil_n diminish_v in_o either_o of_o these_o sense_n it_o be_v a_o eclipse_n first_o take_v it_o

therefore_o we_o do_v so_o often_o read_v of_o the_o darkness_n of_o death_n because_o the_o eye_n be_v therein_o deprive_v of_o that_o light_n which_o now_o they_o enjoy_v it_o be_v a_o deprivation_n of_o natural_a light_n as_o it_o be_v a_o eclipse_n of_o those_o natural_a comfort_n which_o be_v pertinent_a to_o the_o life_n of_o man._n and_o it_o be_v a_o deprivation_n of_o worldly_a light_n as_o it_o be_v a_o eclipse_n of_o those_o secular_a comfort_n whereby_o our_o natural_a life_n be_v make_v more_o sweet_a and_o comfortable_a unto_o we_o yea_o it_o be_v also_o sometime_o according_a to_o the_o circumstance_n of_o it_o a_o deprivation_n of_o spiritual_a light_n likewise_o in_o the_o eclipse_n of_o the_o light_n of_o god_n countenance_n shine_v upon_o the_o soul_n which_o now_o

also_o in_o its_o sense_n of_o extenuation_n as_o be_v no_o more_o we_o know_v that_o in_o a_o eclipse_n though_o the_o sun_n and_o moon_n be_v darken_v for_o a_o time_n yet_o they_o be_v not_o

of_o light_n and_o life_n for_o a_o time_n yet_o there_o be_v a_o recovery_n and_o return_v again_o of_o they_o there_o be_v a_o fail_v of_o they_o in_o death_n but_o there_o be_v a_o recovery_n of_o

phrase_n or_o expression_n which_o be_v here_o use_v of_o die_v when_o as_o it_o be_v call_v a_o failing_n now_o further_o for_o the_o thing_n itself_o and_o notion_n we_o may_v here_o take_v notice_n how_o seasonable_o our_o bless_a saviour_n do_v put_v rich_a man_n in_o mind_n of_o death_n and_o suggest_v to_o they_o thought_n and_o meditation_n of_o their_o latter_a end_n when_o you_o fail_v that_o be_v as_o we_o have_v explain_v it_o when_o you_o die_v as_o consider_v that_o that_o be_v a_o time_n which_o they_o must_v one_o day_n come_v to_o and_o therefore_o be_v fit_v for_o they_o to_o think_v of_o and_o so_o to_o hear_v of_o the_o thought_n

and_o meditation_n of_o death_n as_o they_o become_v all_o man_n beside_o so_o be_v they_o especial_o proper_a and_o pertinent_a to_o man_n of_o great_a and_o large_a estate_n and_o they_o have_v

this_o be_v especial_o requisite_a upon_o this_o account_n i._o to_o moderate_v their_o affection_n in_o the_o pursuit_n and_o increase_n of_o they_o that_o they_o may_v not_o be_v too_o earnest_a
