with_o i_o do_v from_o my_o heart_n and_o soul_n acknowledge_v the_o goodness_n and_o mercy_n of_o god_n who_o notwithstanding_o of_o my_o many_o heinous_a and_o aggravate_v sin_n never_o draw_v the_o sword_n of_o justice_n against_o i_o else_o i_o have_v not_o only_o be_v punish_v with_o all_o temporal_a punishment_n but_o i_o have_v long_o before_o this_o time_n be_v throw_v into_o eternal_a ruin_n from_o which_o there_o be_v no_o redemption_n so_o that_o i_o hope_v the_o great_a god_n will_v make_v i_o a_o monument_n of_o his_o mercy_n and_o not_o of_o his_o justice_n i_o earnest_o desire_v that_o all_o person_n may_v take_v narrow_a inspection_n of_o my_o sin_n which_o have_v bring_v i_o to_o be_v make_v a_o public_a spectacle_n and_o that_o they_o may_v be_v earnest_a with_o god_n that_o he_o may_v give_v they_o his_o restrain_v grace_n to_o preserve_v they_o from_o fall_v into_o the_o like_a for_o though_o it_o please_v god_n to_o deal_v with_o i_o in_o mercy_n that_o i_o be_o bring_v to_o this_o public_a place_n to_o be_v a_o example_n and_o a_o warn_v to_o all_o man_n for_o it_o be_v just_o to_o be_v fear_v that_o after_o this_o so_o signal_n a_o caveat_n if_o any_o shall_v commit_v such_o like_a sin_n that_o god_n will_v draw_v his_o sword_n of_o justice_n against_o they_o and_o cut_v they_o off_o in_o the_o midst_n of_o their_o sin_n and_o throw_v they_o into_o utter_a darkness_n from_o which_o good_a lord_n deliver_v we_o you_o be_v to_o observe_v that_o in_o the_o description_n of_o my_o life_n i_o do_v particular_o mention_v my_o be_v singular_o guilty_a of_o two_o sin_n the_o first_o be_v disobedience_n to_o my_o parent_n which_o be_v a_o breach_n of_o the_o first_o command_n in_o the_o second_o table_n of_o the_o law_n all_o of_o you_o shall_v know_v that_o there_o be_v a_o blessing_n that_o attend_v the_o keep_n of_o this_o command_n but_o as_o i_o have_v break_v it_o so_o i_o have_v deprive_v myself_o of_o the_o blessing_n that_o attend_v it_o but_o beside_o i_o desire_v that_o all_o of_o you_o may_v take_v notice_n that_o when_o i_o throw_v off_o that_o fear_n and_o obedience_n i_o owe_v to_o my_o earthly_a father_n i_o likeways_o throw_v off_o that_o fear_n and_o regard_v i_o owe_v to_o the_o great_a god_n and_o therefore_o i_o earnest_o entreat_v all_o you_o young_a people_n and_o that_o for_o the_o love_n of_o god_n i_o desire_v you_o may_v serious_o consider_v what_o dangerous_a consequence_n attend_v the_o breach_n of_o this_o command_n the_o next_o be_v that_o i_o entertain_v company_n with_o a_o number_n of_o man_n who_o deny_v the_o existency_n of_o god_n mock_v at_o the_o trinity_n and_o incarnation_n of_o our_o bless_a lord_n and_o saviour_n and_o tell_v that_o the_o scripture_n be_v compose_v by_o a_o number_n of_o aspire_a brain_n who_o design_v to_o subject_v the_o world_n to_o their_o captious_a humour_n and_o in_o sum_n that_o religion_n be_v but_o a_o foppery_n and_o religious_a person_n hypocrite_n and_o sycophant_n the_o frequent_a converse_n i_o have_v with_o those_o debauch_a company_n have_v almost_o extinguish_v the_o true_a conception_n i_o have_v of_o a_o god_n but_o the_o only_a thing_n that_o interrupt_v this_o dangerous_a opinion_n be_v that_o from_o my_o young_a year_n i_o have_v always_o private_a converse_n with_o god_n though_o imperfect_o it_o not_o be_v with_o that_o sincerity_n as_o be_v requisite_a yet_o i_o still_o pay_v a_o certain_a kind_n of_o homage_n to_o that_o supreme_a be_v and_o even_o at_o that_o time_n when_o i_o most_o haunt_v that_o company_n and_o if_o at_o any_o time_n i_o have_v omit_v that_o homage_n i_o give_v to_o god_n i_o can_v have_v no_o peace_n of_o mind_n until_o i_o have_v discharge_v myself_o of_o that_o duty_n which_o be_v the_o only_a and_o great_a motive_n which_o hinder_v i_o from_o entertain_v the_o dangerous_a principle_n of_o these_o men._n yet_o notwithstanding_o their_o dare_a and_o blasphemous_a discourse_n there_o be_v one_o of_o they_o who_o tell_v i_o that_o he_o have_v occasion_n sometime_o to_o be_v alone_o but_o be_v afraid_a to_o continue_v so_o for_o any_o time_n for_o he_o say_v that_o he_o feel_v something_o in_o himself_o this_o be_v his_o own_o expression_n that_o do_v strick_v he_o with_o such_o terror_n and_o horror_n and_o throw_v he_o into_o such_o melancholy_a fit_n that_o he_o be_v afraid_a to_o be_v by_o himself_o and_o therefore_o seek_v all_o occasion_n of_o company_n this_o gentleman_n be_v as_o roar_v a_o gallant_a as_o any_o the_o age_n produce_v but_o otherways_o as_o well_o accomplish_v as_o most_o man_n what_o may_v be_v the_o end_v of_o such_o man_n be_v great_o to_o be_v fear_v nay_o even_o the_o worst_a for_o i_o myself_o be_o too_o evident_a a_o example_n of_o the_o same_o i_o do_v therefore_o desire_v that_o all_o here_o present_a and_o to_o who_o knowledge_n this_o may_v come_v may_v be_v earnest_a with_o god_n that_o he_o may_v direct_v they_o in_o such_o a_o holy_a course_n of_o life_n as_o that_o they_o may_v not_o fall_v into_o the_o company_n of_o such_o man_n who_o principle_n be_v attend_v with_o such_o dangerous_a &_o fatal_a consequence_n there_o be_v one_o thing_n that_o do_v not_o a_o little_a trouble_n i_o and_o that_o be_v the_o neglect_v the_o take_n of_o the_o sacrament_n which_o i_o be_v never_o partaker_n of_o notwithstanding_o the_o false_a and_o malicious_a story_n and_o reproach_n that_o pass_v on_o i_o on_o that_o occasion_n and_o i_o shall_v assure_v you_o that_o the_o omission_n of_o that_o holy_a duty_n have_v be_v no_o small_a mean_a in_o bring_v i_o to_o a_o scaffold_n so_o that_o as_o you_o regard_v the_o eternal_a well-being_a of_o your_o soul_n and_o desire_v to_o shun_v the_o danger_n that_o be_v before_o your_o eye_n do_v not_o slight_v the_o opportunity_n of_o take_v the_o holy_a sacrament_n there_o be_v some_o here_o present_a and_o some_o absent_a who_o have_v speak_v most_o false_o and_o contemptible_o of_o i_o for_o which_o i_o forgive_v they_o and_o all_o man_n as_o i_o desire_v to_o be_v forgive_v yet_o i_o must_v tell_v you_o you_o have_v not_o do_v like_o christian_n for_o whatever_o my_o sin_n have_v be_v you_o ought_v in_o christianity_n to_o have_v speak_v of_o i_o with_o commiseration_n and_o regrate_a for_o my_o fail_n and_o you_o shall_v have_v consider_v that_o it_o be_v the_o restrain_v grace_n of_o god_n and_o nothing_o in_o yourselves_o that_o have_v preserve_v you_o from_o fall_v into_o worse_a this_o i_o speak_v for_o your_o good_a do_v not_o think_v i_o have_v any_o resentment_n of_o what_o have_v be_v speak_v of_o this_o nature_n there_o be_v likeways_o many_o come_v here_o to_o day_n rather_o to_o gaze_v than_o to_o take_v example_n but_o i_o charge_v you_o and_o every_o one_o of_o you_o in_o the_o name_n of_o the_o great_a god_n before_o who_o ere_o many_o moment_n i_o must_v make_v my_o appearance_n that_o you_o serious_o consider_v what_o you_o have_v hear_v this_o day_n and_o if_o you_o do_v otherways_o remember_v i_o tell_v you_o in_o the_o name_n of_o the_o most_o high_a that_o it_o will_v stand_v in_o judgement_n against_o you_o for_o i_o be_o persuade_v that_o god_n have_v not_o only_o bring_v i_o here_o for_o a_o punishment_n of_o my_o sin_n but_o likeways_o that_o you_o and_o all_o other_o may_v take_v warn_v and_o example_n by_o i_o and_o may_v be_v edify_v by_o what_o you_o have_v hear_v this_o day_n so_o as_o that_o it_o may_v be_v a_o mean_a of_o your_o conversion_n and_o draw_v near_o to_o god_n that_o this_o may_v be_v the_o effect_n of_o what_o you_o have_v hear_v be_v my_o earnest_a desire_n to_o god_n so_o that_o he_o may_v be_v as_o much_o glorify_v in_o my_o
