the_o shortness_n of_o your_o time_n this_o be_v a_o very_a special_a and_o a_o very_a profitable_a duty_n ecc._n 7.2_o there_o we_o see_v that_o it_o be_v the_o duty_n of_o the_o living_n to_o lay_v

condition_n of_o people_n i_o will_v pass_v over_o childhood_n because_o at_o that_o age_n we_o be_v less_o capable_a of_o consideration_n and_o come_v to_o youth_n do_v young_a man_n and_o woman_n consider_v and_o lay_v to_o heart_n the_o shortness_n of_o their_o time_n alas_o they_o be_v so_o far_o from_o lay_v to_o heart_n any_o alteration_n by_o death_n that_o they_o lay_v not_o to_o heart_n any_o the_o least_o alteration_n by_o age_n or_o sickness_n for_o young_a people_n make_v not_o any_o account_n that_o their_o fine_a face_n their_o youthful_a strength_n beauty_n activity_n shall_v ever_o decay_v or_o be_v impair_v have_v pass_v through_o youth_n i_o come_v to_o middle_a age_n and_o do_v ask_v the_o question_n whether_o do_v people_n in_o the_o midst_n of_o their_o day_n in_o the_o height_n of_o their_o strength_n lay_v to_o heart_n the_o shortness_n of_o their_o time_n as_o samson_n say_v give_v i_o a_o champion_n that_o i_o may_v fight_v with_o he_o so_o i_o say_v show_v i_o a_o instance_n and_o example_n in_o any_o one_o man_n or_o woman_n who_o consider_v this_o thing_n that_o i_o may_v commend_v they_o yea_o to_o come_v to_o old_a age_n do_v people_n when_o they_o

time_n alas_o the_o very_a heathen_a do_v observe_v this_o corruption_n and_o deceit_n in_o the_o heart_n of_o man_n to_o wit_n that_o there_o be_v scarce_o any_o one_o so_o old_a but_o he_o think_v to_o live_v one_o year_n long_o and_o still_o one_o year_n long_o and_o yet_o one_o year_n long_a for_o people_n when_o they_o begin_v to_o be_v sick_a and_o as_o we_o ourselves_o may_v observe_v how_o it_o be_v give_v to_o people_n to_o think_v and_o say_v of_o their_o sickness_n as_o christ_n do_v concern_v that_o of_o lazarus_n this_o sickness_n be_v not_o unto_o death_n yea_o it_o be_v to_o be_v wish_v that_o carnal_a friend_n in_o their_o foolish_a pity_n come_v to_o visit_v their_o sick_a friend_n will_v not_o like_o the_o false_a prophet_n of_o old_a cry_a peace_n peace_n sow_v the_o pillow_n of_o security_n under_o their_o friend_n armhole_n and_o rock_n they_o in_o the_o cradle_n of_o forgetfulness_n both_o of_o god_n and_o of_o themselves_o assure_v their_o friend_n that_o their_o present_a sickness_n shall_v not_o shorten_v and_o much_o less_o end_v their_o time_n of_o such_o friend_n we_o may_v well_o say_v as_o job_n do_v of_o his_o miserable_a counsellor_n and_o miserable_a comfortor_n be_v you_o all_o and_o because_o it_o be_v not_o sufficient_a to_o accuse_v unless_o the_o charge_n be_v make_v evident_a i_o will_v now_o make_v it_o appear_v by_o sundry_a evidence_n that_o very_o few_o do_v lay_v to_o heart_n the_o shortness_n of_o their_o time_n first_o i_o shall_v bring_v in_o the_o common_a wickedness_n and_o profaneness_n of_o the_o world_n to_o testify_v it_o and_o i_o shall_v say_v with_o allusion_n to_o those_o word_n of_o samuel_n to_o saul_n 1_o sam._n 15.14_o if_o the_o most_o of_o people_n do_v indeed_o consider_v and_o lay_v to_o hart_n the_o shortness_n of_o their_o time_n what_o mean_v that_o common_a cry_n of_o all_o fort_n of_o sin_n of_o drunkenness_n swear_v curse_a uncleanness_n which_o we_o do_v daily_o see_v with_o our_o eye_n and_o hear_v with_o our_o ear_n especial_o if_o we_o go_v abroad_o to_o a_o market_n fair_a or_o the_o like_a but_o for_o more_o particular_a evidence_n i_o say_v first_o as_o the_o prophet_n speak_v in_o another_o case_n hos_n 7.10_o so_o i_o say_v here_o the_o pride_n of_o people_n do_v testify_v to_o their_o face_n that_o they_o do_v not_o lay_v to_o heart_n how_o short_a their_o time_n be_v for_o do_v people_n consider_v serious_o and_o sad_o the_o shortness_n of_o their_o time_n will_v they_o be_v so_o haughty_a so_o hofty_a so_o scornful_a and_o disdainful_a of_o their_o inferior_n as_o if_o we_o all_o be_v not_o one_o flesh_n and_o of_o the_o same_o blood_n as_o they_o be_v will_v the_o woman_n kind_a be_v of_o such_o a_o proud_a demeanour_n as_o be_v

esa_n 3.16_o sure_o belove_v the_o mind_v of_o the_o shortness_n of_o our_o time_n will_v bring_v down_o the_o stout_a heart_n and_o lofty_a look_n of_o people_n and_o will_v cause_v we_o all_o to_o walk_v more_o humble_o both_o with_o our_o creator_n and_o with_o our_o fellow-creature_n second_o mens_fw-la covetousness_n do_v testify_v to_o their_o face_n that_o they_o lay_v not_o to_o heart_n the_o shortness_n of_o their_o time_n we_o see_v that_o with_o very_a many_o there_o be_v no_o end_n of_o worldly_a care_n toil_n and_o travel_n they_o be_v never_o satisfy_v in_o their_o mind_n with_o what_o they_o have_v but_o be_v still_o restless_a in_o add_v house_n to_o house_n field_n to_o field_n farm_n to_o farm_n bargain_n to_o bargain_n do_v people_n serious_o consider_v that_o they_o have_v not_o long_o to_o live_v there_o will_v be_v more_o contentment_n and_o less_o convetuosnesse_n then_o be_v every_o where_o among_o all_o sort_n to_o be_v see_v three_o that_o few_o do_v consider_v the_o shortness_n of_o their_o time_n do_v appear_v by_o this_o to_o wit_n that_o though_o people_n do_v sometime_o think_v upon_o death_n yet_o they_o think_v only_o of_o one_o way_n of_o die_v or_o upon_o one_o kind_n of_o death_n to_o wit_n they_o think_v only_o of_o die_v a_o natural_a death_n they_o think_v of_o die_v by_o age_n or_o in_o their_o bed_n where_o as_o we_o may_v as_o well_o die_v a_o untimely_a or_o a_o violent_a death_n as_o a_o natural_a death_n we_o may_v be_v cut_v off_o in_o the_o midst_n of_o our_o day_n and_o strengthy_a by_o a_o thousand_o disaster_n we_o
