&_o spirit_n in_o he_o then_o shall_v he_o be_v bring_v to_o conceive_v of_o spiritual_a thing_n and_o so_o consequent_o to_o this_o repentance_n yet_o i_o hope_v there_o be_v none_o so_o void_a of_o knowledge_n albeit_o unregenerate_a but_o he_o shall_v be_v drive_v to_o learn_v and_o consider_v with_o himself_o either_o by_o the_o law_n and_o order_n of_o nature_n or_o by_o the_o law_n of_o conscience_n this_o one_o object_n especial_o the_o end_n of_o his_o be_v or_o creation_n which_o i_o think_v there_o be_v no_o man_n albeit_o he_o will_v forget_v god_n and_o not_o once_o dream_v of_o he_o yet_o he_o will_v have_v a_o regard_n of_o himself_o and_o see_v he_o find_v himself_o to_o have_v a_o be_v and_o life_n for_o if_o it_o have_v please_v god_n thou_o have_v not_o be_v at_o all_o therefore_o see_v thy_o be_v and_o life_n be_v not_o with_o the_o beast_n unreasonable_a but_o such_o a_o reasonable_a life_n and_o soul_n as_o that_o thou_o consider_v that_o all_o other_o thing_n whatsoever_o in_o the_o world_n create_v sun_n moon_n star_n element_n tree_n herb_n beast_n and_o every_o live_a creature_n be_v all_o subject_n and_o make_v for_o thy_o service_n therefore_o thou_o can_v not_o but_o conclude_v albeit_o thou_o have_v no_o other_o teacher_n as_o the_o light_n of_o nature_n or_o the_o light_n of_o conscience_n but_o that_o the_o end_n of_o thy_o own_o creation_n must_v be_v to_o serve_v god_n the_o only_a maker_n mover_n and_o governor_n of_o all_o thing_n and_o so_o have_v consider_v that_o thou_o have_v a_o god_n and_o master_n to_o serve_v thou_o can_v not_o have_v such_o a_o base_a estimation_n but_o that_o thou_o must_v give_v account_n of_o thy_o service_n and_o the_o good_a servant_n will_v often_o meditate_v the_o day_n and_o time_n of_o account_n in_o his_o master_n absence_n and_o will_v calculate_v and_o press_v with_o all_o diligence_n to_o have_v his_o count_n clear_a against_o his_o master_n come_v especial_o not_o know_v the_o time_n of_o his_o come_n which_o consideration_n albeit_o thou_o be_v a_o atheist_n thou_o shall_v be_v drive_v unto_o it_o either_o by_o the_o light_n of_o nature_n or_o light_n of_o conscience_n but_o dear_a brother_n we_o be_v more_o abundant_o teach_v as_o by_o these_o especial_o in_o this_o our_o age_n who_o be_v bear_v under_o the_o gospel_n of_o jesus_n christ_n which_o great_a mercy_n of_o god_n towards_o we_o be_v unexpressible_a be_v thou_o therefore_o a_o man_n into_o who_o heart_n this_o mercy_n be_v not_o as_o yet_o impress_v and_o that_o thou_o have_v not_o regard_v nor_o consider_v what_o god_n have_v learn_v thou_o out_o of_o his_o word_n nor_o do_v not_o mark_v how_o god_n this_o long_a time_n by-gone_a have_v stand_v knock_v with_o the_o hammer_n and_o trumpet_n of_o his_o evangell_n at_o the_o door_n of_o thy_o soul_n so_o that_o thou_o resemble_v no_o more_o a_o christian_n yet_o i_o pray_v thou_o resemble_v the_o heathen_a herein_o and_o let_v either_o thy_o own_o conscience_n tell_v thou_o or_o the_o law_n of_o nature_n teach_v thou_o that_o all_o thing_n serve_v for_o thy_o use_n and_o service_n and_o so_o consequent_o thou_o for_o the_o use_n of_o god_n and_o to_o his_o service_n that_o be_v either_o for_o a_o vessel_n of_o his_o glory_n in_o the_o heaven_n for_o ever_o or_o for_o a_o spectacle_n of_o his_o justice_n in_o the_o pain_n and_o torment_n of_o hell_n for_o ever_o and_o that_o thou_o must_v make_v account_n of_o thy_o action_n at_o the_o great_a day_n of_o account_n will_v thou_o neither_o imitate_v christian_n nor_o heathen_a herein_o not_o let_v teach_v thou_o by_o the_o word_n of_o god_n law_n of_o nature_n or_o light_n of_o conscience_n yet_o reject_v not_o fear_v with_o the_o unreasonable_a beast_n for_o all_o beast_n whatsoever_o have_v a_o kind_n of_o fear_n and_o will_v avoid_v if_o they_o can_v any_o pain_n or_o torment_n therefore_o have_v some_o fear_n of_o thyself_o else_o what_o shall_v become_v of_o thou_o hereafter_o at_o death_n and_o if_o thou_o reject_v not_o this_o fear_n yet_o thou_o shall_v be_v bring_v so_o far_o as_o to_o consider_v the_o end_n of_o thy_o be_v and_o creation_n which_o be_v to_o serve_v god_n and_o which_o service_n thou_o must_v make_v account_n of_o one_o day_n that_o be_v at_o the_o day_n of_o judgement_n which_o albeit_o it_o shall_v be_v prolong_v some_o hundred_o year_n yet_o we_o see_v by_o daily_a experience_n how_o death_n without_o exception_n and_o expectation_n of_o many_o do_v violent_o compel_v all_o estate_n young_a and_o old_a unto_o this_o account_n so_o that_o no_o man_n be_v certain_a of_o the_o end_n of_o his_o life_n but_o what_o shall_v i_o say_v this_o death_n be_v so_o commoun_n little_o fear_v and_o nothing_o regard_v also_o that_o worldly_a man_n promise_v unto_o themselves_o length_n of_o day_n and_o time_n of_o repentance_n before_o death_n come_v the_o young_a man_n in_o respect_n of_o his_o youth_n and_o ability_n will_v dream_v of_o a_o long_a life_n and_o yet_o often_o cut_v off_o before_o he_o expect_v the_o old_a man_n go_v in_o the_o brinck_n of_o his_o grave_n do_v promise_n himself_o no_o sudden_a death_n and_o the_o time_n of_o his_o repentance_n to_o come_v soon_o enough_o in_o respect_n god_n be_v merciful_a and_o yet_o before_o that_o ever_o he_o expect_v he_o be_v so_o choke_v and_o cruel_o beset_v and_o environ_v lykewayes_o with_o the_o pang_n of_o death_n that_o in_o no_o manner_n of_o way_n once_o be_v he_o able_a to_o meditate_v upon_o repentance_n in_o respect_n of_o the_o sudden_a sorrow_n and_o of_o the_o cruel_a passion_n of_o death_n which_o mighty_o ever-whelmeth_a the_o whole_a body_n of_o he_o in_o a_o eye_n blink_v yea_o in_o a_o very_a moment_n of_o time_n and_o dryve_v the_o soul_n by_o violence_n out_o of_o the_o body_n unto_o the_o maker_n thereof_o and_o there_o for_o to_o render_v account_n of_o its_o do_n whether_o it_o have_v be_v good_a or_o evil_n and_o therefore_o o_o christian_n see_v that_o repentance_n be_v such_o a_o precious_a jewel_n study_n by_o all_o mean_n to_o work_v out_o thy_o salvation_n in_o fear_n and_o in_o tremble_v and_o yet_o the_o worldly_a man_n i_o say_v not_o only_o the_o worldly_a man_n but_o when_o i_o look_v and_o consider_v the_o do_n of_o man_n that_o the_o whole_a world_n for_o the_o great_a part_n be_v sleep_v in_o such_o senseless_a security_n that_o they_o be_v rather_o dream_v with_o the_o atheist_n of_o no_o death_n and_o if_o death_n yet_o no_o resurrection_n no_o judgement_n no_o pain_n no_o torment_n no_o bless_v nor_o endless_a joy_n unto_o themselves_o and_o lead_v such_o a_o negligent_a and_o careless_a life_n that_o i_o be_o assure_v they_o do_v not_o once_o think_v of_o the_o last_o day_n much_o less_o of_o any_o account_n to_o make_v of_o their_o do_n at_o the_o day_n of_o judgement_n but_o i_o will_v assure_v thou_o that_o the_o day_n of_o the_o lord_n be_v come_v
