judgement_n of_o god_n these_o thing_n will_v little_o comfort_v us._n let_v experience_n speak_v if_o a_o trouble_a mind_n impair_v not_o health_n &_o dri_v not_o up_o the_o blood_n consume_v not_o the_o marrow_n pyne_v not_o away_o the_o flesh_n and_o consume_v the_o bone_n if_o it_o make_v not_o all_o pleasure_n painful_a and_o shorten_v not_o the_o life_n sure_o no_o wisdom_n can_v conceal_v it_o no_o counsel_n can_v advise_v it_o no_o advice_n can_v assuage_v it_o no_o assuagement_n can_v cure_v it_o no_o eloquence_n can_v persuade_v it_o no_o power_n can_v overcome_v it_o no_o sceptre_n will_v affray_v it_o no_o enchanter_n can_v charm_v it_o and_o yet_o on_o the_o contrary_n if_o a_o man_n languish_v in_o sickness_n so_o his_o heart_n be_v whole_a and_o he_o be_v persuade_v of_o the_o health_n of_o his_o soul_n his_o sickness_n do_v not_o grieve_v he_o if_o a_o man_n be_v reproach_v so_o he_o be_v precious_a in_o the_o sight_n of_o god_n and_o his_o angel_n what_o loss_n have_v he_o if_o a_o man_n be_v banish_v and_o yet_o doubt_v not_o that_o heaven_n be_v his_o country_n and_o that_o he_o be_v a_o citizen_n among_o the_o saint_n it_o do_v not_o appall_v he_o if_o a_o man_n be_v in_o trouble_n and_o find_v peace_n of_o conscience_n he_o will_v quiet_o digest_v his_o trouble_n but_o if_o the_o mind_n be_v trouble_v who_o dare_v meet_v with_o the_o wrath_n of_o the_o lord_n of_o host_n who_o can_v put_v to_o silence_v the_o voice_n of_o desperation_n who_o will_v step_v out_o &_o make_v a_o agreement_n with_o the_o high_a to_o spare_v we_o who_o dare_v make_v a_o covenant_n with_o the_o devil_n that_o he_o will_v not_o lay_v claim_n to_o we_o if_o then_o a_o good_a conscience_n help_v all_o evil_n and_o all_o other_o benefit_n of_o this_o life_n in_o themselves_o can_v help_v a_o trouble_a conscience_n nor_o see_v it_o true_a by_o proof_n which_o hear_v it_o by_o proverb_n the_o spirit_n of_o a_o man_n will_v sustain_v his_o infirmity_n but_o a_o wound_a spirit_n who_o can_v bear_v it_o again_o in_o all_o other_o affliction_n we_o may_v have_v some_o comfort_n against_o sin_n but_o this_o be_v ever_o accompany_v with_o the_o accusation_n of_o sin_n a_o man_n may_v be_v sick_a reproach_v imprison_v and_o yet_o in_o all_o these_o have_v a_o clear_a conscience_n his_o own_o heart_n tell_v he_o that_o there_o be_v no_o spiritual_a cause_n of_o these_o cross_n in_o he_o but_o that_o he_o may_v suffer_v they_o for_o the_o trial_n of_o his_o faith_n or_o for_o righteousness_n sake_n and_o well_o do_v but_o where_o the_o spirit_n be_v wound_v there_o be_v still_o a_o guiltiness_n of_o sin_n and_o when_o a_o man_n spirit_n be_v trouble_v he_o suspect_v all_o his_o way_n he_o fear_v all_o his_o sin_n he_o know_v not_o what_o sin_n to_o begin_v with_o it_o breed_v such_o hurlieburlies_a in_o he_o that_o when_o it_o be_v day_n he_o wish_v it_o be_v night_n and_o when_o it_o be_v night_n he_o will_v have_v it_o day_n his_o meat_n do_v not_o nourish_v he_o his_o dream_n be_v fearful_a unto_o he_o his_o sleep_n often_o time_n forsake_v he_o if_o he_o speak_v he_o be_v little_o ease_v if_o he_o keep_v silence_n he_o boil_v with_o disquietness_n of_o heart_n the_o light_n do_v not_o comfort_v he_o the_o darkness_n do_v grieve_v he_o to_o prosecute_v our_o comparison_n where_o all_o other_o evil_n be_v the_o more_o tolerable_a because_o they_o be_v temporal_a and_o pursue_v we_o but_o to_o death_n this_o not_o be_v cure_v end_v not_o in_o death_n but_o become_v eternal_o for_o even_o the_o heathen_a man_n think_v that_o death_n be_v the_o end_n of_o all_o misery_n the_o persuasion_n thereof_o make_v they_o be_v in_o some_o misery_n to_o make_v a_o end_n of_o themselves_o and_o hasten_v their_o own_o death_n as_o satan_n do_v make_v many_o now_o adays_o to_o do_v who_o be_v ignorant_a of_o the_o hell_n which_o be_v a_o place_n of_o far_o great_a pain_n than_o any_o they_o can_v suffer_v in_o this_o world_n whatsoever_o howbeit_o a_o torment_a conscience_n if_o before_o it_o be_v begin_v be_v now_o continue_v or_o if_o it_o be_v not_o before_o now_o begin_v and_o never_o end_v world_n without_o end_n for_o though_o true_a it_o be_v that_o poverty_n imprisonment_n or_o banishment_n have_v end_v their_o time_n in_o death_n yet_o a_o wound_a heart_n which_o be_v temporal_a in_o this_o life_n that_o which_o before_o death_n be_v in_o hope_n recoverable_a be_v after_o death_n make_v both_o uncurable_a and_o unrecoverable_a it_o be_v good_a then_o to_o considder_fw-mi if_o even_o in_o this_o life_n the_o torment_n of_o conscience_n be_v so_o fearful_a how_o much_o more_o grievous_a it_o be_v to_o sustain_v it_o in_o hell_n where_o that_o be_v infinite_a which_o here_o be_v finite_a where_o that_o be_v unmeasurable_a which_o here_o be_v measurable_a where_o be_v the_o sea_n of_o sorrow_n whereof_o this_o be_v but_o a_o drop_n where_o be_v the_o flame_n of_o that_o fire_n whereof_o this_o be_v but_o a_o spark_n but_o to_o shut_v up_o argument_n some_o there_o have_v be_v that_o throughout_o their_o life_n time_n have_v be_v free_a from_o other_o trouble_n so_o as_o either_o they_o feel_v they_o not_o at_o all_o or_o in_o very_o small_a measure_n and_o by_o that_o mean_n never_o know_v their_o headache_a for_o poverty_n never_o know_v what_o want_n mean_v who_o for_o discredit_v be_v never_o evil_n speak_v of_o who_o ever_o put_v far_o from_o they_o the_o evil_a day_n of_o the_o lord_n who_o have_v make_v a_o league_n with_o death_n as_o it_o be_v and_o a_o covenant_n with_o hell_n who_o think_v they_o can_v crucify_v every_o cross_n rather_o than_o come_v under_o any_o yet_o they_o can_v never_o escape_v a_o wound_a conscience_n either_o in_o this_o life_n or_o in_o the_o life_n to_o come_v true_a it_o be_v that_o god_n child_n by_o faith_n and_o repentance_n do_v oft_o escape_v it_o but_o the_o wicked_a and_o such_o as_o be_v bear_v to_o it_o as_o to_o their_o sure_a inheritance_n the_o more_o they_o fly_v from_o it_o the_o more_o it_o pursue_v they_o if_o we_o transgress_v the_o civil_a law_n the_o judge_n by_o bribe_n may_v be_v corrupt_v if_o a_o man_n have_v commit_v some_o capital_a offence_n by_o fly_v his_o country_n he_o may_v escape_v the_o magistrate_n hand_n but_o our_o conscience_n tell_v we_o that_o we_o have_v sin_v against_o god_n what_o bribe_n shall_v we_o offer_v or_o whither_o shall_v we_o flee_v where_o shall_v we_o go_v from_o his_o spirit_n or_o whither_o shall_v we_o flee_v from_o his_o presence_n if_o we_o ascend_v into_o heaven_n be_v he_o not_o there_o if_o we_o lie_v down_o in_o hell_n be_v he_o not_o there_o if_o we_o fly_v to_o the_o uttermost_a part_n of_o the_o earth_n be_v he_o not_o there_o also_o there_o need_v no_o paritoure_n to_o summon_v we_o there_o need_v no_o bailife_n to_o fetch_v we_o there_o need_v no_o accuser_n to_o give_v in_o verdict_n against_o we_o sin_n will_v arrest_v we_o and_o lie_v at_o the_o door_n our_o own_o conscience_n will_v impanell_n a_o queast_n against_o we_o our_o own_o heart_n will_v give_v in_o sufficient_a evidence_n and_o our_o iniquity_n will_v plead_v guilty_a to_o our_o face_n thus_o we_o see_v both_o by_o the_o experience_n of_o they_o that_o have_v suffer_v the_o wound_n of_o the_o spirit_n and_o the_o compare_v it_o with_o other_o evil_n what_o a_o weight_n most_o grievous_a and_o a_o burden_n intolerable_a it_o be_v to_o have_v a_o torment_a conscience_n now_o let_v we_o show_v how_o we_o may_v prevent_v it_o and_o by_o what_o mean_v god_n child_n often_o fall_v into_o some_o degree_n of_o it_o but_o if_o it_o rage_n in_o extremity_n it_o be_v a_o evil_a unrecoverable_a yet_o many_o safe_o and_o quiet_o be_v deliver_v from_o it_o and_o here_o a_o just_a complaint_n be_v to_o be_v take_v up_o and_o it_o be_v a_o wonder_n to_o be_v mark_v if_o we_o may_v wonder_v at_o god_n work_n that_o we_o see_v many_o so_o careful_a and_o watchful_a to_o avoid_v other_o trouble_n and_o so_o few_o or_o none_o take_v any_o pain_n to_o escape_v trouble_n of_o mind_n which_o be_v so_o grievous_a we_o see_v man_n love_v health_n and_o loathe_v sickness_n in_o diet_n temperate_a in_o sleep_n moderate_a in_o physic_n expert_a skilful_a to_o purge_v and_o so_o to_o avoid_v such_o corrupt_a humour_n which_o in_o time_n many_o breed_n though_o present_o they_o do_v not_o bring_v forth_o sickness_n yet_o to_o avoid_v the_o disease_n of_o the_o soul_n no_o man_n abate_v his_o sleep_n none_o abridge_v his_o diet_n no_o man_n prepare_v
