and_o cause_v he_o to_o mourn_v in_o secret_a for_o your_o stubbornness_n and_o disobedience_n thus_o your_o sin_n not_o only_o meritorious_o but_o efficient_o may_v concur_v to_o the_o remove_n of_o

and_o a_o people_n in_o some_o respect_n it_o be_v above_o all_o natural_a relation_n they_o be_v spiritual_a father_n your_o soul_n receive_v good_a by_o they_o they_o be_v instrumental_a to_o

or_o friend_n happy_o have_v do_v that_o for_o thou_o which_o his_o ministry_n have_v do_v 5._o there_o be_v cause_n to_o mourn_v because_o it_o be_v a_o sign_n of_o god_n anger_n and_o displeasure_n to_o a_o people_n you_o be_v not_o so_o much_o to_o look_v upon_o it_o as_o the_o loss_n of_o a_o man_n as_o a_o token_n of_o god_n anger_n to_o the_o congregation_n the_o righteous_a man_n perish_v

sad_a consequent_n that_o many_o time_n fall_v upon_o the_o death_n of_o a_o faithful_a pastor_n sometime_o the_o learning_n and_o soundness_n of_o a_o minister_n keep_v a_o people_n from_o licentious_a error_n and_o corrupt_a opinion_n his_o gravity_n and_o piety_n have_v a_o special_a influence_n upon_o many_o but_o upon_o his_o removal_n than_o the_o weed_n of_o a_o man_n heart_n grow_v up_o after_o my_o departure_n say_v paul_n wolf_n will_v arise_v from_o among_o yourselves_o act_v 20._o 29._o paul_n presence_n be_v a_o great_a mean_n to_o hinder_v they_o 2._o what_o good_a

be_v so_o soon_o remove_v say_v paul_n gal._n 1._o alas_o that_o which_o the_o minister_n of_o god_n have_v with_o many_o year_n diligence_n many_o prayer_n and_o much_o opposition_n bring_v about_o when_o the_o minister_n be_v dead_a may_v quick_o be_v destroy_v so_o that_o we_o may_v wonder_v how_o such_o a_o town_n such_o a_o place_n shall_v be_v overrun_v with_o briar_n and_o thorn_n immediate_o 3._o another_o sad_a consequent_a be_v sometime_o division_n and_o breach_n among_o the_o people_n while_o a_o godly_a minister_n be_v alive_a he_o be_v like_o a_o corner_n stone_n that_o

like_v this_o and_o another_o the_o contrary_a and_o thus_o seed_n of_o contention_n and_o division_n be_v sow_v which_o may_v come_v up_o too_o fast_o hence_o the_o presence_n of_o a_o godly_a
