consider_v what_o be_v do_v on_o the_o morning_n of_o the_o first_o day_n here_o turn_v thy_o thought_n to_o consider_v of_o ●hat_n excellent_a creature_n the_o light_n which_o the_o lord_n call_v for_o in_o the_o midst_n of_o da●kness_n ●nd_v which_o immediate_o come_v at_o his_o call_n when_o darkness_n be_v upon_o the_o face_n of_o the_o deep_a god_n say_v let_v there_o be_v light_n and_o there_o be_v light_a admire_v this_o wonderful_a change_n which_o the_o lord_n make_v upon_o this_o day_n when_o sudden_o the_o light_n break_v forth_o there_o where_o be_v nothing_o but_o da●kness_n the_o glory_n of_o god_n be_v notable_o see_v by_o this_o light_n inasmuch_o as_o without_o the_o help_n of_o sun_n moon_n or_o other_o star_n he_o create_v a_o bright_a shine_a light_n to_o drive_v away_o that_o darkness_n wherewith_o those_o beginning_n of_o the_o creation_n be_v enwrap_v we_o shall_v think_v it_o strange_a to_o see_v at_o midnight_n a_o perfect_a light_n sudden_o break_v fo●th_n without_o any_o dawn_n or_o such_o other_o degree_n of_o preparation_n the_o air_n in_o one_o instant_n become_v as_o light_v at_o midnight_n as_o at_o noon_n in_o the_o clear_a day_n yet_o this_o be_v more_o inasmuch_o as_o it_o be_v the_o first_o appearance_n of_o the_o light_n that_o ever_o be_v in_o the_o world_n there_o be_v no_o beginning_n no_o glimpse_n or_o degree_n of_o it_o before_o and_o here_o consider_v 1._o as_o the_o light_n be_v create_v upon_o this_o day_n so_o christ_n the_o light_n of_o the_o world_n do_v this_o day_n arise_v out_o of_o the_o grave_a of_o death_n and_o darkness_n and_o by_o his_o resurrection_n the_o light_n of_o his_o godhead_n do_v shine_v abroad_o into_o the_o world_n which_o before_o be_v over-shadowed_n with_o miserable_a blindness_n and_o darkness_n so_o the_o apostle_n say_v he_o be_v declare_v to_o be_v the_o son_n of_o god_n with_o power_n according_a to_o the_o spirit_n of_o holiness_n by_o the_o resurrection_n from_o the_o dead_a rom._n 1._o ●_o his_o time_n of_o suffer_v be_v the_o hour_n of_o darkness_n and_o a_o kind_n of_o n●ght_n his_o ignominious_a death_n burial_n and_o ab●de_v in_o the_o grave_a be_v so_o da●k_v a_o night_n that_o in_o it_o the_o quick_a eye_n even_o the_o faith_n of_o his_o own_o disciple_n can_v hardly_o discern_v he_o to_o be_v the_o son_n of_o god_n and_o saviour_n of_o the_o world_n but_o be_v rise_v he_o make_v it_o manifest_v that_o he_o be_v the_o son_n of_o god_n as_o the_o sun_n do_v show_v itself_o by_o the_o brightness_n of_o his_o own_o beam_n and_o now_o he_o cast_v abroad_o the_o light_n of_o his_o heavenly_a truth_n in_o the_o ministry_n of_o his_o apostle_n by_o who_o be_v preach_v christ_n jesus_n dead_a for_o our_o sin_n and_o rise_v again_o to_o make_v we_o righteous_a 2._o consider_v that_o as_o on_o this_o day_n the_o light_n be_v create_v and_o this_o day_n christ_n the_o light_n of_o the_o world_n do_v arise_v so_o the_o lord_n have_v ordain_v that_o on_o this_o day_n the_o light_n of_o the_o holy_a gospel_n shall_v shine_v bright_o and_o plentiful_o in_o his_o church_n through_o the_o preach_n of_o the_o word_n and_o therefore_o consider_v serious_o with_o thyself_o that_o on_o this_o day_n thou_o must_v set_v thyself_o with_o a_o open_a and_o fix_v eye_n of_o thy_o soul_n to_o receive_v the_o light_n that_o be_v wi●h_v a_o willing_a teachable_a and_o attentive_a mind_n to_o receive_v the_o word_n of_o god_n which_o be_v a_o beam_n of_o light_n issue_v from_o he_o who_o be_v the_o father_n and_o fountain_n of_o light_n sad_n be_v the_o practice_n of_o many_o who_o like_a owl_n and_o bat_n and_o such_o other_o nightbird_a shun_v the_o light_n and_o come_v not_o abroad_o in_o such_o time_n when_o the_o sun_n shine_v namely_o such_o as_o purposely_o keep_v home_o on_o this_o day_n and_o be_v offend_v at_o the_o light_n causeless_o absent_v themselves_o from_o it_o or_o wilful_o refuse_v to_o entertain_v it_o such_o as_o will_v like_v the_o world_n better_o if_o it_o be_v over-shadowed_n with_o a_o night_n of_o ignorance_n and_o like_o those_o church_n best_o that_o have_v but_o dark_a lantern_n or_o such_o candle_n as_o after_o a_o little_a time_n of_o blaze_a go_v out_o with_o a_o unsavoury_a snuff_n oh_o think_v it_o a_o special_a mercy_n of_o god_n that_o he_o hold_v forth_o the_o light_n unto_o thou_o on_o this_o day_n and_o do_v thou_o with_o all_o readiness_n both_o look_n towards_o it_o and_o walk_v by_o it_o 3._o again_o consider_v that_o as_o light_n be_v the_o first_o thing_n which_o be_v make_v when_o the_o earth_n be_v without_o form_n and_o void_a so_o when_o any_o soul_n in_o the_o state_n of_o natural_a corruption_n be_v without_o christ_n form_v in_o they_o void_a of_o grace_n full_a of_o pollution_n the_o first_o thing_n wrought_v in_o we_o be_v a_o light_n of_o sanctify_a knowledge_n sound_a illumination_n before_o we_o can_v bring_v forth_o any_o duty_n please_v to_o god_n and_o therefore_o be_v not_o deceive_v like_o those_o who_o think_v that_o ignorance_n be_v the_o mother_n of_o devotion_n ignorance_n be_v as_o great_a a_o enemy_n to_o the_o soul_n and_o its_o salvation_n as_o utter_v darkness_n be_v to_o the_o world_n and_o to_o the_o creature_n in_o it_o and_o that_o spiritual_a light_n be_v as_o needful_a for_o the_o former_a as_o this_o other_o light_n be_v for_o the_o latter_a they_o therefore_o that_o be_v in_o their_o natural_a blindness_n be_v as_o far_o from_o the_o new_a creation_n as_o the_o earth_n be_v from_o its_o natural_a perfection_n while_o darkness_n be_v upon_o the_o face_n of_o the_o deep_a 4._o as_o god_n alone_o by_o his_o call_n do_v bring_v forth_o light_a so_o think_v you_o that_o all_o the_o knowledge_n which_o thou_o have_v especial_o in_o heavenly_a thing_n be_v whole_o from_o god_n without_o which_o nothing_o be_v in_o thou_o but_o utter_a darkness_n and_o therefore_o thou_o have_v no_o more_o cause_n to_o be_v proud_a of_o thy_o knowledge_n than_o that_o muddy_a heap_n of_o earth_n in_o the_o beginning_n have_v to_o brag_v of_o the_o light_n which_o shine_v upon_o it_o by_o the_o command_n of_o god_n whereas_o of_o itself_o it_o be_v altogether_o dark_a and_o cover_v with_o darkness_n 5._o consider_v the_o benefit_n which_o thou_o receive_v by_o this_o creature_n it_o give_v thou_o the_o use_n of_o thy_o eye_n it_o delight_v that_o sense_n it_o free_v thou_o from_o many_o fear_n which_o darkness_n do_v natural_o suggest_v unto_o thou_o it_o show_v thou_o thing_n in_o their_o right_a colour_n it_o help_v thou_o in_o avoid_v many_o danger_n in_o obtain_v many_o comfort_n it_o be_v a_o guide_n unto_o thou_o in_o thy_o travel_n it_o be_v comfort_n in_o thy_o
