conclude_v have_v bring_v he_o into_o it_o that_o i_o be_o willing_a to_o presume_v there_o be_v none_o of_o you_o but_o have_v reflect_v on_o himself_o before_o this_o time_n and_o ask_v his_o soul_n what_o have_v i_o do_v affliction_n be_v the_o season_n for_o consideration_n it_o be_v the_o mother_n of_o many_o wise_a thought_n and_o much_o knowledge_n especial_o of_o man_n self_n to_o who_o they_o be_v too_o great_a stranger_n till_o that_o day_n come_v in_o a_o time_n then_o of_o such_o great_a calamity_n as_o this_o when_o the_o hand_n of_o god_n press_v you_o so_o sore_o to_o suppose_v you_o to_o be_v without_o all_o serious_a reflection_n on_o your_o way_n will_v be_v to_o imagine_v you_o as_o hard_o as_o the_o stone_n we_o can_v believe_v you_o be_v so_o insensible_a now_o that_o death_n present_v itself_o so_o near_o and_o look_v you_o in_o the_o very_a face_n it_o be_v not_o possible_a but_o that_o you_o begin_v to_o consider_v how_o you_o have_v live_v and_o what_o preparation_n you_o have_v make_v for_o another_o stare_n now_o sure_o you_o ask_v yourselves_o these_o question_n with_o some_o passion_n what_o have_v we_o do_v and_o what_o shall_v we_o do_v to_o be_v save_v nay_o my_o charity_n carry_v i_o so_o far_o as_o to_o think_v that_o in_o such_o strait_n as_o these_o to_o which_o you_o be_v reduce_v you_o have_v do_v a_o great_a deal_n more_o and_o proceed_v to_o make_v many_o resolution_n of_o amendment_n you_o have_v vow_v to_o god_n i_o persuade_v myself_o that_o if_o he_o will_v spare_v your_o life_n you_o will_v forsake_v those_o sin_n which_o have_v make_v you_o so_o miserable_a and_o live_v hereafter_o in_o a_o strict_a observance_n of_o his_o holy_a command_n you_o be_v willing_a to_o receive_v your_o life_n from_o his_o hand_n on_o these_o condition_n you_o ask_v they_o on_o no_o other_o term_n but_o that_o they_o may_v be_v better_o employ_v for_o he_o and_o desire_v he_o i_o presume_v to_o deal_v with_o you_o as_o you_o serious_o mean_v to_o become_v new_a man_n these_o thing_n therefore_o pass_v for_o grant_v i_o will_v not_o fill_v up_o this_o little_a paper_n with_o earnest_a exhortation_n to_o repentance_n for_o which_o the_o rod_n of_o god_n call_v so_o loud_o but_o rather_o direct_v you_o to_o make_v it_o such_o a_o repentance_n as_o shall_v never_o be_v repent_v of_o and_o awaken_v yourselves_o i_o beseech_v you_o to_o consider_v what_o i_o say_v sit_v down_o and_o pause_v a_o while_n as_o you_o go_v along_o to_o urge_v every_o thing_n upon_o your_o heart_n and_o what_o be_v say_v here_o in_o brief_a make_v long_a discourse_n of_o to_o yourselves_o labour_v at_o this_o present_a to_o supply_v the_o preacher_n place_n i._o and_o first_o since_o you_o be_v now_o look_v into_o yourselves_o i_o beseech_v you_o search_v to_o the_o very_a bottom_n of_o your_o heart_n though_o it_o be_v a_o great_a way_n thither_o yet_o god_n have_v now_o give_v you_o time_n and_o leisure_n enough_o to_o descend_v into_o it_o as_o near_o as_o you_o can_v therefore_o unravel_v all_o your_o life_n that_o you_o may_v see_v what_o the_o whole_a course_n of_o it_o have_v be_v reflect_v i_o mean_v not_o only_o on_o some_o sin_n that_o be_v near_o at_o hand_n but_o look_v on_o those_o that_o be_v further_o off_o and_o lie_v more_o out_o of_o your_o view_n lay_v yourselves_o naked_a and_o examine_v yourselves_o all_o over_o both_o without_o and_o within_o that_o you_o may_v find_v out_o every_o thing_n which_o be_v offensive_a to_o god_n else_o i_o must_v tell_v you_o this_o affliction_n will_v only_o make_v hypocrite_n in_o stead_n of_o produce_v good_a christian_n the_o fruit_n of_o it_o will_v be_v only_o a_o partial_a reformation_n which_o in_o effect_n be_v none_o at_o all_o shall_v i_o assist_v you_o a_o little_a in_o this_o great_a affair_n know_v then_o that_o the_o sin_n which_o you_o be_v in_o search_n of_o be_v common_o for_o more_o easy_a understand_a sake_n comprehend_v under_o these_o three_o head_n 1._o such_o as_o be_v direct_o against_o god_n 2._o such_o as_o be_v a_o injury_n also_o to_o your_o neighbour_n and_o 3._o such_o as_o be_v against_o yourselves_o some_o of_o which_o likewise_o consist_v in_o do_v what_o you_o ought_v not_o to_o have_v do_v and_o other_o in_o not_o do_v those_o thing_n which_o you_o ought_v to_o have_v do_v and_o therefore_o in_o your_o inquiry_n after_o the_o offence_n against_o the_o majesty_n of_o god_n you_o must_v consider_v such_o thing_n as_o these_o have_v you_o not_o be_v wont_a to_o blaspheme_v the_o name_n of_o
