without_o this_o the_o hope_n in_o death_n which_o the_o text_n mention_n will_v avail_v nothing_o for_o many_o man_n be_v full_a of_o hope_n who_o have_v no_o just_a cause_n for_o it_o and_o on_o the_o contrary_a other_o be_v afraid_a to_o die_v who_o may_v just_o meet_v death_n with_o comfort_n the_o melancholy_a of_o some_o and_o the_o sanguine_a complexion_n of_o other_o fill_v they_o with_o hope_n and_o fear_n which_o be_v not_o owe_v to_o the_o reason_n of_o thing_n but_o only_o to_o their_o natural_a temper_n so_o that_o to_o show_v any_o man_n a_o die_a saint_n that_o have_v cause_n to_o rejoice_v in_o death_n it_o be_v not_o enough_o that_o he_o have_v peace_n of_o mind_n but_o also_o that_o he_o have_v just_a ground_n for_o it_o too_o and_o thus_o have_v show_v who_o this_o righteous_a man_n be_v to_o who_o this_o privilege_n belong_v i_o proceed_v now_o 2._o to_o show_v what_o be_v his_o hope_n that_o make_v death_n a_o desirable_a thing_n to_o he_o which_o to_o other_o be_v the_o king_n of_o terror_n now_o this_o hope_n be_v of_o the_o favour_n and_o friendship_n of_o almighty_a god_n and_o of_o all_o those_o blessing_n which_o may_v be_v expect_v from_o it_o what_o those_o blessing_n be_v be_v not_o so_o well_o know_v in_o old_a time_n when_o god_n lead_v man_n on_o by_o more_o dark_a and_o indefinite_a expectation_n of_o the_o future_a happiness_n but_o when_o christ_n come_v he_o 10._o bring_v life_n and_o immortality_n to_o light_n and_o have_v tell_v we_o plain_o that_o at_o their_o death_n all_o righteous_a man_n shall_v be_v translate_v to_o the_o unspeakable_a and_o eternal_a joy_n of_o heaven_n and_o these_o be_v so_o great_a that_o no_o heart_n can_v wish_v for_o more_o for_o the_o blessing_n of_o that_o place_n be_v so_o large_a as_o to_o fill_v all_o our_o capacity_n so_o pure_a as_o not_o to_o have_v the_o least_o mixture_n of_o sorrow_n so_o constant_a as_o to_o admit_v of_o no_o abatement_n or_o intermission_n we_o shall_v always_o desire_v and_o always_o be_v satisfy_v and_o when_o we_o have_v enjoy_v the_o most_o we_o shall_v never_o be_v cloy_v nor_o weary_v with_o it_o we_o shall_v live_v in_o god_n presence_n and_o share_v in_o his_o likeness_n and_o shine_v in_o his_o glory_n and_o have_v fellowship_n with_o the_o saviour_n of_o the_o world_n and_o all_o the_o spotless_a angel_n and_o all_o the_o glorify_a saint_n and_o godlike_a person_n who_o society_n alone_o be_v enough_o to_o turn_v any_o place_n into_o a_o paradise_n and_o all_o these_o we_o shall_v enjoy_v without_o all_o fear_n of_o misfortune_n either_o they_o or_o our_o own_o without_o all_o danger_n of_o displease_v they_o or_o fear_v of_o lose_v they_o without_o see_v any_o thing_n either_o to_o pity_n or_o blame_v in_o they_o or_o any_o damp_n of_o friendship_n and_o intermission_n of_o affection_n in_o sum_n we_o shall_v never_o see_v any_o ill_a nor_o suffer_v it_o nor_o ever_o want_v any_o good_a thing_n or_o when_o we_o have_v it_o fear_v to_o be_v deprive_v of_o it_o but_o we_o shall_v be_v infinite_o happy_a and_o ever_o think_v ourselves_o so_o and_o continue_v in_o that_o state_n for_o evermore_o this_o be_v that_o eternal_a life_n which_o god_n promise_v and_o whereto_o death_n now_o convey_v all_o righteous_a person_n and_o since_o it_o be_v the_o way_n to_o our_o enjoyment_n of_o all_o this_o bliss_n it_o be_v no_o long_o a_o spoiler_n of_o our_o joy_n but_o a_o step_v to_o they_o and_o a_o thing_n to_o be_v desire_v by_o all_o godly_a soul_n it_o be_v indeed_o like_o churlish_a physic_n very_o ungrateful_a in_o itself_o though_o it_o may_v be_v most_o desirable_a in_o the_o effect_n it_o bring_v a_o dissolution_n of_o nature_n which_o strike_v horror_n and_o that_o into_o the_o best_a man_n who_o will_v desire_v not_o to_o die_v if_o they_o can_v come_v at_o the_o happiness_n of_o the_o other_o life_n without_o die_v and_o this_o st._n paul_n testify_v of_o himself_o confess_v that_o as_o for_o the_o way_n of_o receive_v the_o heavenly_a house_n i._n e._n the_o glorify_a body_n he_o have_v rather_o be_v find_v alive_a and_o have_v it_o superinduce_v by_o a_o

this_o body_n first_o but_o to_o be_v clothe_v upon_o by_o have_v the_o other_o superinduce_v that_o mortality_n may_v not_o so_o true_o be_v put_v off_o as_o swallow_v up_o of_o life_n 2_o cor._n

wonderful_o rich_a and_o pleasant_a so_o that_o every_o considerate_a man_n who_o look_v beyond_o death_n have_v the_o great_a reason_n to_o desire_v it_o to_o they_o as_o st._n paul_n say_v it_o have_v quite_o lose_v its_o 55._o sting_n and_o be_v become_v the_o true_a gain_n phil._n 1._o 21._o all_o sense_n of_o what_o it_o take_v away_o be_v drown_v in_o the_o boundless_a apprehension_n of_o what_o it_o give_v and_o death_n be_v swallow_v up_o in_o victory_n 1_o cor._n 15._o 54._o it_o confer_v on_o they_o all_o their_o heart_n can_v desire_v and_o therefore_o if_o they_o right_o consider_v it_o ought_v not_o to_o be_v a_o matter_n of_o their_o fear_n it_o take_v they_o from_o a_o dunghill_n to_o a_o throne_n and_o invest_v they_o in_o all_o the_o glory_n and_o riches_n of_o a_o everlasting_a kingdom_n i_o come_v now_o 3._o to_o apply_v this_o to_o allay_v our_o grief_n and_o sorrow_n on_o the_o death_n of_o friend_n i_o do_v not_o seek_v to_o suppress_v all_o grief_n for_o a_o die_a friend_n for_o that_o be_v a_o impossible_a task_n friendship_n be_v a_o close_a thing_n and_o lie_v near_o to_o our_o heart_n so_o near_o indeed_o that_o a_o friend_n be_v say_v and_o that_o very_o just_o to_o be_v a_o second_o self_n and_o therefore_o to_o be_v insensible_a when_o a_o dear_a friend_n be_v tear_v from_o we_o be_v as_o impossible_a as_o to_o have_v no_o sense_n when_o a_o finger_n be_v rend_v off_o from_o our_o hand_n or_o our_o heart_n be_v pluck_v out_o of_o our_o body_n some_o course_n nature_n will_v have_v in_o spite_n of_o all_o argument_n and_o no_o

sensible_a of_o our_o loss_n and_o to_o evidence_n our_o affection_n for_o the_o person_n that_o be_v go_v as_o the_o jew_n when_o jesus_n weep_v for_o lazarus_n cry_v out_o behold_v how_o he_o love_v he_o jo._n 11._o 35._o 36._o the_o unconcernedness_n of_o the_o live_n seem_v a_o reflection_n upon_o the_o dead_a and_o argue_v they_o be_v not_o belove_v while_o they_o live_v but_o that_o the_o world_n be_v weary_a of_o their_o company_n and_o even_o their_o pretend_a friend_n very_o willing_a if_o not_o glad_a to_o be_v quit_v of_o they_o and_o therefore_o it_o be_v reckon_v as_o a_o part_n of_o god_n judgement_n upon_o the_o jew_n that_o when_o they_o die_v there_o shall_v be_v no_o wail_n for_o they_o ezek._n 7._o 11._o but_o with_o this_o grief_n for_o our_o own_o loss_n in_o the_o departure_n of_o our_o friend_n we_o must_v at_o the_o same_o time_n show_v ourselves_o sensible_a who_o it_o be_v that_o have_v take_v they_o and_o that_o too_o for_o their_o own_o gain_n and_o that_o he_o still_o continue_v to_o we_o a_o thousand_o blessing_n when_o he_o only_o call_v back_o one_o and_o therefore_o with_o sorrow_n for_o they_o we_o must_v be_v sure_a to_o join_v submission_n to_o god_n to_o resign_v up_o our_o will_n to_o he_o and_o be_v not_o only_o outward_o silent_a but_o inward_o renconcile_v to_o what_o he_o have_v do_v and_o to_o be_v heartiful_a thankful_a both_o for_o all_o the_o kindnessess_v he_o show_v our_o depart_a friend_n and_o for_o that_o vast_a number_n of_o other_o he_o still_o continue_v to_o ourselves_o these_o thing_n will_v not_o be_v perform_v as_o they_o ought_v when_o grief_n grow_v strong_a whilst_o it_o keep_v within_o due_a bound_n such_o as_o suit_v with_o the_o apprehension_n and_o hope_n of_o christian_n it_o be_v what_o natural_a affection_n will_v force_v from_o we_o and_o what_o religion_n allow_v but_o when_o it_o become_v ungovernable_a and_o boisterous_a in_o degree_n or_o obstinate_a in_o continuance_n it_o be_v in_o itself_o a_o ill_a thing_n a_o irresistible_a temptation_n so_o that_o when_o we_o do_v grieve_v we_o must_v be_v careful_a to_o keep_v back_o from_o all_o excess_n and_o to_o do_v it_o with_o
