dare_v be_v so_o bold_a to_o think_v of_o death_n and_o the_o final_a judgement_n of_o god_n and_o of_o pass_v into_o a_o everlasting_a state_n which_o ordinary_o they_o think_v of_o as_o seldom_o as_o they_o can_v at_o such_o a_o time_n their_o peace_n be_v disturb_v and_o they_o ready_a to_o sink_v under_o the_o fear_n of_o a_o after-reckoning_a this_o be_v ordinary_o true_a except_o of_o those_o who_o be_v stupefy_v and_o harden_v so_o as_o to_o be_v past_a feel_n which_o be_v not_o the_o case_n of_o all_o nor_o be_v it_o present_o the_o case_n of_o any_o but_o great_a peace_n have_v they_o that_o love_v thy_o law_n and_o nothing_o shall_v offend_v they_o this_o can_v be_v say_v of_o other_o who_o brutish_a sensuality_n and_o flashy_a joy_n which_o they_o call_v pleasure_n be_v tincture_v with_o uneasiness_n and_o end_n in_o sorrow_n they_o have_v care_n and_o fear_v and_o trouble_v and_o weariness_n and_o regret_n and_o do_v those_o thing_n daily_o which_o must_v make_v they_o unsatisfied_a with_o themselves_o when_o they_o come_v to_o review_v they_o but_o the_o good_a man_n have_v the_o promise_n of_o have_v his_o desire_n grant_v and_o fulfil_v and_o while_o he_o

who_o live_v under_o the_o ministry_n of_o the_o gospel_n and_o yet_o continue_v in_o sin_n do_v act_n against_o their_o own_o light_n and_o the_o dictate_v of_o conscience_n they_o live_v in_o a_o contradiction_n to_o what_o they_o know_v they_o ought_v to_o be_v and_o do_v and_o therefore_o can_v have_v no_o inward_a peace_n conscience_n tell_v thou_o that_o this_o thy_o course_n be_v not_o

neglect_n of_o prayer_n that_o thou_o must_v repent_v of_o sin_n and_o endeavour_v to_o make_v thy_o peace_n with_o god_n and_o prepare_v for_o another_o world_n and_o be_v in_o a_o readiness_n for_o a_o sudden_a death_n thy_o conscience_n tell_v thou_o thou_o must_v do_v so_o and_o therefore_o while_o you_o live_v in_o a_o neglect_n of_o this_o and_o in_o a_o contrary_a course_n you_o be_v self-condemned_n and_o how_o many_o such_o be_v there_o who_o from_o morning_n to_o night_n be_v under_o the_o conviction_n and_o condemnation_n of_o a_o accuse_a conscience_n but_o yet_o be_v hold_v in_o the_o chain_n of_o some_o sin_n so_o that_o their_o lust_n prevail_v against_o their_o conviction_n you_o know_v you_o ought_v to_o worship_n god_n in_o private_a and_o public_a that_o you_o ought_v to_o acknowledge_v he_o in_o all_o your_o way_n and_o make_v it_o your_o business_n to_o please_v and_o glorify_v he_o though_o you_o do_v it_o not_o you_o know_v you_o ought_v to_o avoid_v evil_a company_n though_o you_o continue_v to_o frequent_v it_o you_o know_v that_o drunkenness_n be_v a_o sin_n and_o uncleanness_n a_o sin_n and_o oppression_n covetousness_n injustice_n theft_n overreach_a treachery_n perjury_n etc._n etc._n be_v sin_n you_o know_v for_o such_o sin_n the_o wrath_n of_o god_n be_v reveal_v from_o heaven_n you_o know_v your_o gild_n you_o know_v you_o have_v not_o repent_v you_o know_v you_o be_v not_o fit_a to_o die_v you_o know_v you_o ought_v to_o turn_v to_o god_n and_o seek_v his_o favour_n lest_o you_o be_v surprise_v by_o a_o sudden_a death_n but_o your_o lust_n be_v too_o strong_a for_o your_o light_n i_o wonder_v not_o that_o such_o person_n can_v bear_v retirement_n that_o they_o do_v not_o love_v to_o be_v alone_o for_o serious_a consideration_n nay_o that_o they_o be_v afraid_a of_o wake_v in_o the_o night_n and_o for_o that_o very_a reason_n some_o of_o they_o have_v confess_v they_o usual_o drink_v more_o free_o in_o the_o evening_n than_o otherwise_o they_o will_v do_v that_o they_o may_v sleep_v sound_o to_o prevent_v the_o uneasiness_n of_o their_o own_o thought_n in_o case_n they_o shall_v not_o sleep_v as_o some_o malefactor_n will_v make_v themselves_o drink_v when_o they_o be_v to_o be_v execute_v that_o death_n may_v not_o be_v terrible_a which_o be_v a_o medicine_n against_o repentance_n not_o against_o hell_n by_o some_o such_o method_n man_n may_v in_o part_n keep_v off_o the_o feel_n of_o their_o misery_n till_o the_o hope_n of_o cure_n and_o relief_n be_v past_a but_o what_o a_o sort_n of_o peace_n be_v this_o for_o if_o they_o awake_v in_o the_o night_n their_o conscience_n be_v awake_a and_o the_o light_n of_o conscience_n do_v not_o only_o shine_v but_o burn_v and_o scorch_v they_o even_o at_o midnight_n some_o of_o those_o who_o pretend_v to_o be_v above_o such_o fear_n notwithstanding_o all_o their_o hector_n and_o damn_v and_o blasphemy_n and_o rail_a be_v follow_v with_o

acknowledge_v though_o inconsideration_n sensual_a pleasure_n and_o the_o hope_n of_o death_n be_v at_o a_o good_a distance_n keep_v they_o from_o such_o constant_a fear_n in_o health_n 3._o the_o rage_n of_o some_o impetuous_a lust_n and_o the_o violence_n of_o sinful_a passion_n be_v manifest_o inconsistent_a with_o inward_a peace_n it_o be_v from_o lust_n and_o luxury_n from_o pride_n and_o envy_n from_o malice_n and_o spite_n from_o ambition_n and_o covetousness_n and_o such_o disposition_n which_o the_o grace_n of_o the_o gospel_n be_v design_v to_o cure_v and_o christianity_n condemn_v that_o man_n can_v enjoy_v inward_a peace_n and_o tranquillity_n while_o their_o passion_n run_v violent_o and_o wild_o towards_o the_o base_a or_o mean_a object_n they_o must_v needs_o be_v punish_v with_o inward_a uneasiness_n remorse_n and_o dissatisfaction_n they_o travel_v with_o iniquity_n and_o conceive_v mischief_n they_o be_v in_o as_o great_a pain_n almost_o as_o a_o woman_n in_o travail_n and_o all_o to_o bring_v forth_o a_o lie_n psal_n 7.14_o one_o burn_v with_o impatient_a lust_n which_o be_v its_o own_o torment_n another_o eat_v out_o his_o heart_n with_o envy_n or_o

and_o passion_n there_o be_v nothing_o almost_o so_o ridiculous_a and_o absurd_a brutish_a and_o abominable_a but_o the_o violence_n of_o sinful_a passion_n have_v bring_v man_n to_o the_o outward_a disorder_n and_o folly_n of_o their_o action_n show_v the_o inward_a disturbance_n and_o discomposure_n of_o their_o mind_n to_o this_o purpose_n say_v the_o prophet_n that_o the_o wicked_a be_v like_o the_o trouble_a sea_n that_o can_v rest_v that_o be_v always_o cast_v out_o mire_n and_o dirt._n they_o be_v hurry_v and_o tear_v and_o set_v upon_o the_o rack_n by_o the_o violence_n of_o

fear_n of_o punishment_n afterward_o in_o most_o case_n must_v needs_o destroy_v the_o inward_a peace_n of_o such_o man_n mind_n but_o he_o that_o walk_v according_a to_o the_o rule_n of_o the_o gospel_n need_v not_o be_v at_o all_o this_o pain_n to_o prevent_v disappointment_n or_o shame_n to_o guard_v himself_o and_o suspect_v every_o body_n to_o curb_v his_o tongue_n and_o watch_v his_o

secret_a action_n and_o i_o may_v add_v that_o the_o contrariety_n and_o inconsistency_n of_o some_o lust_n do_v also_o hinder_v inward_a peace_n as_o while_o covetousness_n make_v a_o man_n toil_n
