put_v into_o prison_n shall_v they_o then_o have_v answ._n a_o hundred_o fold_n in_o this_o life_n yes_o for_o their_o imprisonment_n be_v better_a than_o worldly_a man_n liberty_n it_o be_v say_v that_o when_o joseph_n be_v put_v into_o prison_n that_o the_o lord_n go_v in_o with_o he_o and_o be_v with_o he_o and_o therefore_o it_o be_v no_o prison_n for_o what_o be_v it_o that_o make_v it_o a_o prison_n the_o lord_n absence_n a_o man_n have_v more_o joy_n in_o a_o prison_n wherein_o god_n be_v then_o in_o a_o palace_n without_o god_n as_o you_o may_v see_v in_o saul_n when_o the_o lord_n be_v depart_v from_o he_o his_o palace_n be_v but_o a_o prison_n to_o he_o brethren_n if_o you_o believe_v this_o that_o you_o shall_v have_v more_o for_o the_o present_a if_o you_o will_v accept_v of_o this_o match_n you_o will_v not_o any_o long_o stand_v out_o but_o if_o you_o will_v not_o believe_v for_o all_o that_o i_o have_v say_v we_o have_v no_o more_o to_o say_v to_o you_o in_o brief_a but_o this_o thou_o shall_v have_v thy_o portion_n in_o this_o life_n as_o the_o prodigal_a son_n he_o will_v have_v his_o portion_n present_o well_o if_o you_o will_v have_v your_o portion_n you_o shall_v have_v it_o as_o in_o that_o 17._o psal._n 14._o the_o man_n of_o this_o world_n who_o have_v their_o 14._o portion_n in_o this_o life_n you_o shall_v have_v your_o portion_n in_o this_o life_n thou_o shall_v have_v thy_o belly_n fill_v with_o treasure_n but_o remember_v that_o terrible_a sentence_n thou_o have_v thy_o reward_n therefore_o it_o be_v no_o marvel_n that_o worldling_n live_v so_o content_o with_o so_o much_o outward_a ease_n it_o be_v no_o marvel_n i_o say_v for_o their_o father_n have_v give_v they_o their_o portion_n another_o impediment_n be_v when_o parent_n have_v provide_v a_o fit_a match_n for_o their_o child_n and_o come_v and_o other_o propound_v it_o to_o their_o child_n than_o they_o be_v promise_v to_o another_o their_o heart_n be_v set_v upon_o other_o and_o this_o be_v a_o great_a impediment_n in_o this_o and_o it_o be_v common_a now_o the_o lord_n come_v to_o propound_v this_o match_n to_o thou_o but_o thou_o can_v not_o forsake_v those_o thing_n that_o thy_o affection_n be_v set_v upon_o thou_o have_v make_v another_o choice_n thy_o heart_n be_v set_v upon_o these_o outward_a thing_n thou_o have_v promise_v thy_o love_n and_o delight_n to_o they_o and_o thou_o must_v now_o refuse_v the_o suit_n of_o the_o king_n son_n this_o one_o day_n will_v lie_v heavy_a upon_o thy_o conscience_n when_o as_o this_o christ_n that_o thou_o have_v now_o reject_v shall_v come_v to_o judgement_n and_o shall_v sit_v upon_o his_o glorious_a throne_n and_o shall_v pronounce_v that_o heavy_a sentence_n depart_v from_o i_o you_o curse_v and_o then_o thy_o conscience_n shall_v tell_v thou_o oh_o he_o be_v once_o a_o suitor_n to_o i_o but_o i_o have_v make_v another_o choice_n a_o worse_a choice_n which_o than_o thou_o find_v though_o it_o seem_v pleasant_a for_o the_o time_n yet_o indeed_o his_o service_n will_v have_v be_v more_o pleasant_a and_o profitable_a for_o he_o will_v have_v thou_o live_v but_o according_a to_o the_o rule_n in_o temperance_n sobriety_n in_o diligence_n in_o thy_o call_n and_o such_o like_a which_o will_v have_v keep_v thy_o body_n in_o health_n and_o preserve_v thy_o estate_n and_o now_o thou_o have_v waste_v thy_o body_n in_o fornication_n and_o uncleanness_n and_o have_v waste_v thy_o good_n in_o drunkenness_n and_o good-fellowship_n and_o all_o riotous_a live_n and_o so_o if_o we_o shall_v stand_v to_o compare_v every_o particular_a service_n of_o each_o husband_n we_o shall_v find_v that_o our_o obedience_n to_o our_o right_a husband_n be_v more_o pleasant_a than_o that_o we_o have_v now_o choose_v nay_o we_o service_n shall_v find_v that_o the_o worst_a action_n that_o christ_n command_v be_v far_o more_o pleasant_a than_o the_o best_a of_o the_o other_o as_o take_v sorrow_n for_o sin_n that_o we_o count_v the_o worst_a and_o the_o hard_a duty_n yet_o even_o in_o that_o there_o go_v along_o with_o it_o a_o secret_a sweetness_n and_o comfort_n those_o that_o have_v any_o experience_n in_o it_o know_v it_o to_o be_v true_a but_o when_o as_o thou_o yielde_v obedience_n to_o thy_o other_o husband_n even_o in_o the_o midst_n of_o thy_o carnal_a delight_n thy_o heart_n be_v sad_a there_o be_v a_o kind_n of_o perplexity_n go_v along_o with_o it_o this_o we_o shall_v find_v in_o all_o the_o action_n we_o do_v to_o this_o wrong_a husband_n a_o secret_a gripe_a and_o sting_v of_o conscience_n and_o beside_o this_o we_o shall_v at_o length_n be_v pay_v with_o death_n but_o in_o our_o obedience_n to_o our_o right_a husband_n it_o moreov_a and_o above_o our_o comfort_n in_o his_o service_n he_o will_v give_v we_o wage_n and_o reward_n eternal_a life_n and_o all_o the_o comfort_n appertain_v thereunto_o but_o in_o brief_a if_o you_o will_v not_o yield_v if_o you_o will_v not_o be_v rule_v god_n will_v do_v with_o you_o as_o parent_n do_v with_o rebellious_a child_n if_o they_o be_v stubborn_a and_o match_n against_o their_o will_n when_o as_o neither_o promise_n nor_o persuasion_n will_v do_v any_o good_a what_o will_v they_o do_v why_o they_o will_v disinherit_v they_o so_o if_o you_o will_v be_v stubborn_a and_o neither_o persuasion_n nor_o promise_n will_v do_v no_o good_a with_o you_o but_o notwithstanding_o all_o this_o you_o will_v not_o remove_v your_o affection_n from_o off_o your_o choice_n your_o father_n shall_v disinherit_v you_o you_o shall_v loose_v your_o kingdom_n you_o shall_v be_v damn_v if_o you_o will_v not_o cut_v off_o your_o right_a hand_n and_o cut_v out_o your_o right_a eye_n that_o offend_v you_o you_o shall_v keep_v they_o but_o you_o shall_v go_v to_o hell_n with_o they_o if_o you_o will_v not_o believe_v we_o we_o have_v no_o more_o to_o say_v to_o you_o you_o shall_v loose_v your_o birthright_n another_o impediment_n if_o so_o be_v we_o find_v we_o stand_v in_o yet_o need_n of_o a_o husband_n to_o pay_v our_o debt_n yet_o we_o be_v not_o dispose_v to_o marry_v yet_o but_o know_v if_o thou_o will_v not_o take_v the_o time_n before_o the_o time_n be_v past_a thou_o shall_v sit_v long_o enough_o without_o suitor_n christ_n he_o be_v a_o suitor_n by_o his_o spirit_n and_o we_o be_v his_o friend_n to_o persuade_v you_o to_o match_v with_o he_o now_o consider_v how_o that_o he_o only_o must_v persuade_v we_o may_v persuade_v long_o enough_o if_o no_o other_o do_v persuade_v you_o you_o will_v never_o be_v win_v but_o there_o be_v another_o the_o lord_n himself_o he_o be_v his_o own_o spokesman_n and_o must_v be_v or_o else_o you_o will_v never_o be_v win_v and_o therefore_o take_v heed_n of_o defer_v when_o thou_o find_v the_o holy_a ghost_n a_o suitor_n to_o thou_o and_o that_o christ_n speak_v to_o thy_o heart_n take_v heed_n of_o refuse_v his_o spirit_n shall_v not_o always_o strive_v with_o man_n if_o he_o knock_v but_o once_o open_a to_o he_o perhaps_o he_o will_v knock_v no_o more_o take_v heed_n of_o delay_n and_o putting_n off_o bid_v christ_n come_v another_o time_n for_o we_o common_o say_v delay_n be_v dangerous_a if_o thou_o do_v thou_o may_v loose_v thy_o suitor_n and_o christ_n may_v let_v thou_o sit_v all_o thy_o life_n time_n and_o never_o be_v a_o suitor_n to_o thou_o again_o there_o be_v indeed_o a_o time_n when_o all_o will_v match_v with_o christ_n in_o their_o extremity_n at_o their_o death_n as_o the_o foolish_a virgin_n they_o come_v when_o it_o prove_v too_o late_o the_o door_n be_v shut_v when_o the_o arrest_n come_v upon_o we_o than_o we_o will_v match_v with_o christ_n but_o than_o it_o be_v too_o late_o then_o christ_n will_v not_o match_v with_o thou_o then_o we_o may_v fly_v to_o the_o horn_n of_o the_o altar_n as_o joab_n do_v but_o then_o christ_n will_v say_v as_o solomon_n do_v of_o joab_n go_v fall_n upon_o he_o and_o kill_v he_o even_o there_o there_o be_v a_o refuge_n in_o the_o city_n but_o thou_o must_v be_v a_o citizen_n there_o before_o the_o avenger_n of_o blood_n come_v then_o be_v not_o a_o time_n to_o marry_v with_o christ_n then_o be_v a_o time_n to_o call_v to_o mountain_n to_o fall_v upon_o you_o and_o cover_v you_o and_o furthermore_o whereas_o thou_o say_v thou_o will_v hereafter_o match_v with_o christ_n but_o not_o yet_o what_o know_v thou_o but_o that_o thy_o soul_n may_v present_o be_v take_v from_o thou_o and_o therefore_o you_o see_v what_o a_o deal_n of_o folly_n man_n show_v in_o their_o putting_n off_o another_o impediment_n be_v when_o the_o party_n be_v christ._n bring_v together_o to_o see_v one_o another_o many_o time_n they_o do_v not_o like_o
