represent_v of_o they_o 3._o and_o now_o i_o proceed_v to_o put_v a_o period_n to_o this_o discourse_n in_o some_o practical_a deduction_n and_o inference_n from_o it_o which_o be_v the_o three_o and_o last_o thing_n i_o propose_v to_o perform_v and_o three_o i_o shall_v only_o mention_v at_o present_a 1._o first_o it_o may_v let_v we_o see_v how_o extreme_o imprudent_a those_o young_a person_n be_v that_o think_v discourse_n of_o this_o nature_n no_o way_n proper_a or_o needful_a for_o they_o and_o at_o what_o mighty_a and_o dangerous_a rate_n all_o such_o person_n do_v act_n that_o regard_v not_o religion_n in_o their_o youth_n nor_o take_v care_n to_o govern_v their_o life_n by_o the_o rule_n and_o measure_n of_o it_o it_o be_v to_o you_o that_o i_o have_v be_v speak_v all_o this_o while_n and_o it_o be_v you_o that_o this_o occasion_n chief_o concern_v for_o god_n sake_n consider_v well_o with_o yourselves_o whether_o religion_n be_v not_o as_o needful_a for_o you_o as_o other_o and_o whither_o if_o god_n shall_v call_v for_o you_o out_o of_o this_o world_n as_o it_o be_v more_o than_o possible_a that_o he_o may_v you_o can_v hope_v to_o be_v save_v without_o the_o aid_n of_o it_o be_v persuade_v therefore_o i_o beseech_v you_o to_o take_v it_o along_o with_o you_o and_o to_o hallow_v your_o youth_n with_o a_o sense_n and_o care_n of_o it_o do_v not_o think_v religion_n a_o enemy_n to_o your_o mirth_n and_o pleasure_n and_o delight_n in_o this_o world_n it_o be_v the_o best_a expedient_a to_o these_o and_o the_o only_a way_n to_o render_v they_o pure_a and_o real_a it_o be_v no_o sad_a or_o melancholy_a thing_n nor_o abridge_v you_o of_o any_o thing_n that_o be_v for_o your_o true_a happiness_n you_o may_v sing_v rejoice_v and_o be_v merry_a god_n envy_v you_o nothing_o but_o sin_n which_o spoil_v your_o joy_n dash_v your_o mirth_n and_o must_v soon_o or_o late_a be_n sad_o account_v for_o religion_n will_v make_v you_o true_o cheerful_a preserve_v the_o comfort_n and_o delight_n of_o your_o own_o mind_n entitle_v you_o to_o god_n good_a care_n and_o blessing_n in_o the_o follow_a course_n of_o your_o life_n it_o will_v fit_v you_o to_o live_v happy_o and_o to_o die_v comfortable_o and_o render_v you_o both_o in_o life_n and_o death_n certain_o bless_v 2._o this_o will_v show_v we_o how_o mighty_a careful_a all_o parent_n and_o guardian_n of_o youth_n ought_v to_o be_v to_o season_v they_o with_o religion_n instil_v a_o sense_n and_o knowledge_n of_o the_o principle_n of_o it_o into_o they_o betimes_o and_o train_v they_o up_o in_o the_o way_n of_o it_o this_o will_v be_v a_o double_a blessing_n to_o they_o and_o the_o high_a instance_n of_o love_n and_o kindness_n and_o a_o care_n of_o they_o that_o we_o can_v give_v nature_n oblige_v we_o to_o take_v care_n of_o their_o outward_a welfare_n and_o both_o nature_n and_o religion_n require_v we_o to_o take_v care_n of_o their_o spiritual_a and_o it_o will_v be_v a_o sad_a account_n we_o shall_v make_v at_o the_o last_o day_n of_o our_o failure_n herein_o when_o their_o miscarriage_n shall_v be_v charge_v upon_o we_o and_o their_o blood_n be_v require_v at_o our_o hand_n it_o be_v our_o own_o comfort_n and_o gain_v that_o call_v upon_o we_o in_o this_o as_o well_o as_o they_o and_o if_o we_o expect_v to_o have_v they_o comfort_n and_o blessing_n to_o we_o while_o they_o live_v or_o to_o part_v with_o they_o with_o any_o comfort_n when_o they_o be_v take_v from_o we_o we_o shall_v be_v sure_a to_o do_v all_o we_o can_v for_o they_o in_o this_o great_a instance_n 3._o and_o last_o that_o all_o may_v have_v some_o gain_n by_o this_o discourse_n it_o may_v show_v we_o of_o what_o mighty_a concern_v religion_n be_v to_o we_o all_o and_o upon_o what_o great_a reason_n all_o of_o we_o be_v oblige_v to_o have_v a_o due_a regard_n and_o care_n of_o it_o the_o same_o reason_n of_o this_o text_n that_o hold_v with_o respect_n to_o

much_o so_o too_o subject_n to_o error_n and_o easy_o impose_v upon_o apt_a to_o idolise_v the_o flatter_a vanity_n of_o this_o world_n prone_a to_o sin_n and_o all_o manner_n of_o wickedness_n and_o daily_o under_o the_o dominion_n of_o death_n and_o incident_a to_o the_o stroke_n and_o seizure_n of_o it_o and_o therefore_o the_o same_o reason_n ought_v to_o prevail_v with_o we_o that_o we_o have_v think_v so_o very_o proper_a for_o they_o and_o it_o will_v be_v a_o grand_a shame_n and_o mighty_a guilt_n and_o a_o misery_n at_o last_o equal_a to_o both_o if_o while_o we_o preach_v religion_n to_o they_o we_o ourselves_o be_v find_v regardless_o of_o it_o then_o only_o can_v we_o hope_v with_o success_n to_o recommend_v religion_n unto_o they_o when_o we_o ourselves_o lead_v they_o and_o go_v before_o they_o in_o it_o and_o then_o may_v we_o hope_v for_o god_n blessing_n upon_o both_o here_o and_o by_o his_o grace_n and_o through_o the_o merit_n of_o our_o dear_a lord_n
