the_o 4_o city_n the_o famine_n be_v there_o and_o if_o we_o sit_v here_o we_o die_v also_o now_o therefore_o let_v we_o fall_v into_o the_o hand_n of_o our_o enemy_n and_o if_o they_o save_v we_o alive_a we_o shall_v live_v and_o if_o they_o kill_v we_o we_o shall_v but_o die_v they_o have_v but_o one_o mean_n to_o succour_v themselves_o withal_o and_o that_o be_v to_o go_v into_o the_o camp_n of_o the_o enemy_n and_o there_o as_o it_o happen_v they_o be_v relieve_v thus_o be_v the_o lively_a picture_n of_o a_o poor_a sinner_n in_o this_o despair_a condition_n when_o he_o see_v the_o wrath_n of_o god_n pursue_v he_o and_o that_o the_o lord_n have_v beset_v he_o on_o every_o side_n at_o last_o he_o resolve_v thus_o with_o himself_o if_o i_o go_v and_o rest_n on_o my_o privilege_n there_o be_v nothing_o but_o emptiness_n and_o if_o i_o rest_v in_o my_o natural_a condition_n i_o perish_v there_o also_o let_v i_o therefore_o fall_v into_o the_o hand_n of_o the_o lord_n of_o host_n i_o confess_v he_o have_v be_v provoke_v by_o i_o and_o for_o aught_o i_o see_v he_o be_v my_o enemy_n i_o be_o now_o a_o damn_a man_n and_o if_o the_o lord_n cast_v i_o out_o of_o his_o

sinner_n in_o the_o very_a gall_n of_o bitterness_n this_o be_v the_o behaviour_n of_o the_o soul_n in_o this_o work_n of_o subjection_n the_o second_o part_n of_o humiliation_n be_v contentedness_n to_o be_v at_o the_o lord_n disposal_n and_o this_o point_n be_v of_o a_o high_a pitch_n than_o the_o former_a for_o example_n take_v a_o debtor_n who_o have_v use_v all_o mean_n to_o avoid_v the_o

the_o soul_n reflect_v on_o god_n mercy_n which_o though_o he_o beg_v when_o he_o submit_v yet_o now_o he_o see_v so_o much_o corruption_n and_o unworthiness_n in_o himself_o that_o he_o acknowledge_v himself_o unfit_a for_o mercy_n o_o mercy_n mercy_n lord_n what_o say_v the_o lord_n i_o have_v think_v your_o own_o duty_n will_v have_v purchase_v mercy_n o_o no_o say_v the_o soul_n it_o be_v only_a mercy_n that_o must_v relieve_v and_o succour_v i_o but_o such_o be_v my_o vileness_n that_o i_o be_o not_o fit_a for_o the_o least_o mercy_n and_o favour_n and_o such_o be_v the_o wickedness_n of_o this_o wretched_a heart_n of_o i_o that_o whatsoever_o be_v the_o great_a plague_n i_o be_o worthy_a of_o they_o all_o though_o never_o so_o insupportable_a all_o the_o judgement_n that_o god_n

and_o make_v he_o say_v have_v they_o the_o like_a mercy_n o_o those_o sweet_a comfort_n and_o those_o precious_a promise_n that_o i_o have_v have_v how_o many_o heavy_a journey_n have_v the_o lord_n jesus_n make_v to_o i_o how_o often_o have_v he_o knock_v at_o my_o heart_n and_o say_v come_v to_o i_o you_o rebellious_a child_n turn_v you_o turn_v you_o why_o will_v you_o die_v o_o that_o mercy_n that_o have_v follow_v i_o from_o my_o house_n to_o my_o walk_n and_o from_o thence_o to_o my_o closet_n here_o mercy_n have_v confer_v with_o i_o and_o there_o mercy_n have_v woo_v i_o yea_o in_o

of_o god_n plague_n be_v too_o little_a for_o i_o i_o suppose_v for_o so_o be_v my_o opinion_n that_o god_n can_v do_v more_o against_o i_o than_o i_o have_v just_o deserve_v but_o be_v sure_a god_n
