will_v give_v thou_o all_o the_o riches_n and_o all_o the_o glory_n in_o the_o world_n if_o you_o will_v part_v with_o christ_n consider_v whether_o thy_o heart_n be_v ready_a to_o deny_v whatsoever_o he_o offer_v to_o thou_o as_o he_o will_v be_v sure_a to_o offer_v that_o which_o will_v be_v most_o suitable_a to_o thy_o disposition_n whether_o thy_o heart_n have_v take_v this_o resolution_n to_o itself_o christ_n be_v my_o chief_a treasure_n i_o will_v part_v with_o all_o therefore_o i_o will_v part_v with_o liberty_n with_o life_n with_o good_n with_o credit_n with_o pleasure_n with_o profit_n with_o whatsoever_o be_v near_o and_o dear_a unto_o i_o rather_o than_o i_o will_v part_v with_o the_o lord_n jesus_n if_o this_o be_v thy_o heart_n resolution_n and_o mind_n than_o christ_n be_v thy_o chief_a treasure_n that_o be_v the_o second_o thing_n 3_o three_o consider_v what_o be_v thy_o chief_a joy_n and_o delight_n what_o be_v thy_o life_n i_o put_v they_o together_o for_o that_o which_o be_v a_o man_n chief_a joy_n indeed_o be_v his_o life_n for_o we_o know_v life_n be_v nothing_o else_o but_o that_o joy_n that_o the_o heart_n have_v whereby_o it_o be_v nourish_v and_o feed_v as_o it_o be_v for_o life_n be_v not_o to_o have_v body_n and_o soul_n join_v together_o to_o be_v a_o live_a man_n in_o that_o sense_n we_o usual_o take_v life_n for_o if_o that_o be_v life_n than_o those_o in_o hell_n shall_v not_o be_v say_v to_o die_v the_o death_n for_o you_o know_v in_o hell_n there_o be_v a_o conjunction_n of_o soul_n and_o body_n and_o yet_o man_n be_v not_o say_v to_o live_v there_o for_o it_o be_v death_n which_o be_v the_o punishment_n of_o sin_n and_o indeed_o you_o shall_v find_v that_o there_o be_v something_o a_o man_n heart_n cleave_v unto_o wherein_o he_o rejoice_v which_o be_v the_o same_o with_o his_o life_n therefore_o look_v as_o the_o soul_n enlivens_fw-la the_o body_n so_o the_o conjunction_n of_o the_o present_a thing_n which_o he_o reckon_v his_o joy_n that_o be_v his_o life_n enliven_v his_o soul_n he_o can_v live_v without_o they_o now_o if_o christ_n be_v thy_o chief_a joy_n thou_o will_v find_v this_o that_o thou_o can_v not_o live_v without_o he_o as_o man_n be_v wont_a to_o say_v of_o their_o delight_n such_o a_o man_n can_v live_v without_o such_o a_o thing_n so_o it_o be_v true_a of_o every_o man_n that_o have_v take_v christ_n he_o be_v not_o able_a to_o live_v without_o he_o this_o life_n be_v no_o life_n and_o therefore_o if_o there_o be_v but_o a_o separation_n between_o thou_o and_o christ_n if_o a_o man_n conscience_n be_v as_o it_o be_v cloud_v for_o a_o time_n he_o find_v no_o rest_n he_o do_v as_o the_o spouse_n in_o the_o canticle_n 6._o she_o seek_v from_o one_o place_n to_o another_o and_o give_v herself_o no_o rest_n till_o she_o find_v he_o and_o why_o because_o it_o be_v he_o who_o her_o soul_n love_v so_o you_o shall_v find_v belove_v whatsoever_o it_o be_v that_o your_o soul_n love_n whatsoever_o you_o make_v your_o chief_a joy_n you_o will_v take_v no_o rest_n but_o as_o far_o as_o you_o love_v and_o enjoy_v it_o therefore_o for_o the_o find_n of_o this_o whether_o christ_n be_v thy_o life_n and_o thy_o chief_a joy_n consider_v what_o it_o be_v that_o thy_o thought_n feed_v upon_o every_o wicked_a man_n every_o man_n that_o be_v out_o of_o christ_n there_o be_v something_o that_o his_o thought_n feed_v upon_o some_o thing_n there_o be_v in_o contemplation_n of_o which_o the_o soul_n so_o lace_v itself_o some_o pleasure_n that_o be_v past_a present_a or_o to_o come_v the_o very_a think_v of_o these_o be_v the_o great_a joy_n of_o his_o heart_n he_o roll_n they_o under_o his_o tongue_n even_o as_o a_o servant_n that_o have_v get_v some_o dainty_a bit_n out_o of_o his_o master_n presence_n and_o eat_v it_o in_o a_o corner_n so_o the_o soul_n of_o a_o man_n have_v out_o of_o christ_n some_o secret_a some_o steal_v some_o unlawful_a delight_n that_o it_o feed_v upon_o and_o delight_n in_o consider_v therefore_o well_o with_o thyself_o what_o breakfast_n thy_o morning_n thought_n have_v that_o i_o may_v so_o say_v what_o breakfast_n they_o have_v every_o morning_n what_o be_v that_o pabulum_fw-la that_o food_n of_o thy_o soul_n wherewith_o thy_o thought_n and_o affection_n be_v nourish_v and_o refresh_v from_o day_n to_o day_n whether_o it_o be_v some_o carnal_a pleasure_n some_o reflect_v on_o thy_o state_n upon_o thy_o wealth_n upon_o thy_o friend_n or_o whether_o it_o be_v on_o christ._n see_v as_o david_n exercise_v it_o whether_o be_v they_o thy_o 8._o song_n in_o the_o night_n time_n all_o carnal_a man_n have_v something_o past_o whereby_o they_o comfort_v themselves_o something_o present_a whereby_o they_o cheer_v up_o their_o heart_n something_o to_o come_v something_o in_o hope_n so_o every_o man_n that_o be_v in_o christ_n he_o have_v the_o comfort_n of_o the_o spirit_n the_o meditation_n of_o the_o privilege_n that_o he_o have_v in_o christ_n the_o hope_n of_o god_n favour_n these_o be_v his_o appoint_a food_n these_o be_v the_o thing_n that_o his_o soul_n feed_v on_o in_o secret_a yea_o the_o very_a work_n that_o he_o do_v that_o seem_v to_o be_v the_o hard_a part_n of_o a_o christian_n life_n the_o very_a work_n that_o he_o do_v in_o serve_v the_o lord_n from_o day_n to_o day_n even_o that_o be_v his_o meat_n and_o his_o drink_n that_o be_v it_o be_v as_o sweet_a and_o acceptable_a to_o his_o soul_n as_o meat_n and_o drink_n be_v to_o the_o hunger_n and_o thirst_n of_o his_o body_n now_o consider_v with_o thyself_o whether_o it_o be_v so_o with_o thou_o whether_o that_o which_o be_v thy_o continual_a feast_n without_o which_o thou_o can_v not_o live_v be_v christ_n or_o the_o assurance_n thou_o have_v that_o he_o be_v thou_o and_o thou_o be_v he_o whether_o it_o be_v the_o privilege_n thou_o have_v in_o he_o and_o the_o thing_n that_o belong_v to_o the_o kingdom_n of_o god_n see_v whether_o these_o be_v thy_o life_n the_o thing_n without_o which_o thou_o can_v not_o live_v or_o whether_o it_o be_v some_o thing_n else_o some_o steal_v delight_n some_o unlawful_a pleasure_n some_o thing_n else_o that_o thy_o soul_n and_o affection_n be_v set_v upon_o this_o be_v the_o next_o thing_n by_o which_o thou_o may_v try_v thyself_o whether_o thou_o belong_v to_o christ_n or_o no_o to_o consider_v whether_o he_o be_v thy_o chief_a joy_n whether_o thy_o soul_n be_v most_o fill_v and_o satisfy_v with_o he_o and_o this_o be_v the_o three_o thing_n 4_o the_o four_o be_v to_o know_v whether_o he_o be_v thy_o chief_a refuge_n if_o thou_o be_v one_o that_o have_v take_v he_o and_o receive_v he_o i_o say_v he_o be_v thy_o chief_a refuge_n for_o every_o man_n have_v some_o refuge_n some_o castle_n or_o other_o to_o which_o his_o soul_n retire_v in_o all_o difficult_a and_o doubtful_a case_n by_o reason_n of_o that_o indigency_n that_o insufficiency_n to_o which_o the_o nature_n of_o man_n be_v subject_a there_o be_v something_o that_o he_o must_v have_v to_o lean_v unto_o mark_v it_o for_o mankind_n be_v like_o that_o generation_n which_o the_o wiseman_n speak_v of_o you_o

say_v such_o be_v the_o generation_n of_o mankind_n he_o be_v a_o weak_a creature_n a_o generation_n not_o strong_a therefore_o there_o be_v something_o that_o he_o must_v lean_v to_o something_o out_o of_o himself_o some_o sufficiency_n beside_o himself_o some_o strong_a hold_n some_o refuge_n every_o man_n have_v i_o say_v every_o man_n have_v some_o refuge_n or_o other_o whither_o he_o think_v his_o soul_n may_v go_v and_o there_o he_o may_v have_v succour_n in_o case_n dangerous_a and_o in_o trouble_n now_o consider_v what_o be_v thy_o refuge_n whither_o thy_o heart_n run_v in_o all_o such_o case_n to_o what_o wing_n to_o what_o strong_a hold_n in_o dangerous_a case_n you_o see_v every_o creature_n have_v some_o refuge_n or_o other_o the_o child_n run_v to_o his_o mother_n

and_o for_o help_v to_o keep_v thyself_o safe_a be_v it_o to_o christ_n or_o to_o somewhat_o else_o my_o belove_a i_o assure_v you_o this_o that_o a_o carnal_a man_n that_o be_v not_o in_o christ_n
