A14879	The plaine mans pilgrimage. Or iovrney tovvards heaven Wherein if hee walke carefully he may attaine to euerlasting life. By W.W.	Webster, William, treatise writer.	1613 (1613)	STC 25181; ESTC S101835	77,422	180

see_v he_o seek_v and_o not_o find_v to_o run_v and_o not_o to_o obtain_v therefore_o he_o set_v he_o in_o the_o way_n like_o a_o guide_n send_v from_o god_n which_o often_o have_v stray_v himself_o before_o and_o be_v now_o recover_v to_o the_o right_a way_n again_o stand_v like_o a_o mark_n of_o knowledge_n in_o the_o turn_n that_o lead_v unto_o blind_a byway_n to_o direct_v all_o those_o that_o seek_v for_o comfort_n that_o they_o may_v follow_v the_o ready_a path_n that_o lead_v to_o eternal_a happiness_n therefore_o from_o the_o first_o set_v forth_o even_o from_o the_o time_n of_o youth_n when_o man_n begin_v his_o pilgrimage_n course_n solomon_n tell_v how_o he_o shall_v therein_o prepare_v himself_o to_o walk_v and_o set_v he_o in_o a_o fair_a high_a way_n wherein_o be_v no_o

well_o he_o that_o shall_v be_v thy_o judge_n do_v see_v all_o that_o thou_o do_v &_o hear_v thou_o every_o word_n &_o thy_o thought_n shall_v keep_v thou_o in_o the_o way_n at_o all_o time_n now_o solomon_n set_v forth_o the_o danger_n of_o delay_n and_o draw_v they_o forward_o as_o it_o be_v with_o two_o cord_n that_o be_v short_a time_n of_o their_o youth_n &_o the_o infinite_a infirmity_n of_o age_n to_o show_v how_o soon_o our_o youth_n be_v go_v which_o we_o think_v never_o will_v have_v end_n solomon_n do_v not_o reckon_v it_o by_o year_n but_o by_o day_n in_o the_o day_n of_o thy_o youth_n so_o the_o scripture_n number_n our_o life_n by_o day_n and_o hour_n and_o minute_n to_o teach_v we_o to_o make_v careful_a use_n of_o all_o our_o time_n and_o every_o day_n think_v upon_o our_o end_n yet_o lest_o they_o shall_v post_n over_o the_o remembrance_n until_o age_n come_v which_o be_v the_o general_a day_n that_o all_o for_o the_o most_o part_n set_v to_o repent_v in_o therefore_o after_o this_o verse_n solomon_n bring_v in_o the_o old_a man_n deaf_a blind_a and_o lame_a and_o stammer_n for_o the_o young_a man_n to_o behold_v as_o if_o he_o shall_v say_v look_v my_o son_n be_v this_o man_n fit_a to_o learn_v which_o can_v hear_v nor_o see_v nor_o speak_v nor_o go_v therefore_o remember_v thy_o creator_n in_o the_o day_n of_o thy_o youth_n before_o this_o dote_a age_n come_v upon_o thou_o this_o than_o be_v the_o level_a of_o your_o message_n to_o hasten_v forward_o they_o which_o travel_n towards_o heaven_n because_o there_o be_v great_a space_n between_o god_n and_o we_o and_o much_o a_o do_v to_o aspire_v the_o top_n of_o the_o mount_n of_o zion_n but_o more_o a_o do_v to_o aspire_v the_o top_n of_o the_o mount_n of_o heaven_n this_o be_v the_o

god_n in_o be_v to_o seek_v he_o early_o before_o the_o flood_n of_o wrath_n arise_v and_o the_o heap_n of_o sin_n stand_v up_o like_o a_o rampire_a wall_n between_o god_n and_o us._n therefore_o say_v our_o saviour_n christ_n if_o you_o seek_v the_o kingdom_n of_o god_n first_o all_o other_o thing_n shall_v be_v cast_v upon_o you_o he_o say_v not_o seek_v the_o world_n first_o that_o heaven_n shall_v be_v cast_v upon_o you_o he_o that_o do_v believe_v this_o will_v first_o seek_v heaven_n and_o we_o say_v first_o let_v i_o bury_v my_o father_n first_o let_v i_o bid_v my_o friend_n farewell_o and_o so_o many_o thing_n come_v first_o so_o long_o in_o bury_v our_o father_n so_o long_o in_o bid_v our_o friend_n farewell_o that_o be_v to_o say_v the_o riches_n honour_n and_o

after_o our_o pleasure_n or_o else_o he_o shall_v not_o be_v serve_v at_o all_o therefore_o i_o can_v not_o say_v to_o you_o as_o christ_n seek_v first_o the_o kingdom_n of_o heaven_n for_o than_o you_o shall_v have_v seek_v it_o long_o ago_o but_o now_o it_o must_v be_v say_v which_o the_o apostle_n say_v redeem_v the_o time_n and_o at_o last_o seek_v the_o kingdom_n of_o heaven_n for_o it_o be_v to_o be_v fear_v that_o as_o little_a fly_n when_o many_o come_v together_o plague_v and_o destroy_v the_o egyptian_n so_o short_a hour_n but_o many_o in_o sin_n and_o security_n will_v steal_v

they_o dote_v for_o age_n they_o be_v not_o old_a enough_o to_o repent_v woe_n to_o the_o security_n woe_n to_o the_o stubburnesse_n woe_n to_o the_o drowsiness_n of_o this_o age_n consider_v this_o

of_o your_o heart_n christ_n will_v not_o always_o clock_n like_o a_o hen_n to_o gather_v her_o chicken_n john_n will_v not_o always_o cry_v repent_v for_o the_o day_n of_o the_o lord_n be_v at_o

do_v we_o learn_v when_o we_o think_v of_o this_o but_o that_o which_o moses_n say_v to_o apply_v our_o heart_n unto_o wisdom_n the_o second_o note_n be_v that_o the_o time_n of_o man_n be_v set_v &_o

jeremy_n say_v they_o can_v not_o stand_v because_o the_o day_n of_o their_o destruction_n be_v come_v as_o there_o be_v a_o day_n of_o destruction_n and_o a_o day_n of_o death_n so_o there_o be_v a_o

that_o his_o day_n have_v be_v few_o so_o we_o may_v say_v that_o our_o day_n shall_v be_v few_o for_o as_o some_o come_v into_o the_o vineyard_n in_o the_o morning_n and_o some_o at_o noon_n and_o

appoint_v such_o a_o short_a time_n to_o mankind_n in_o this_o world_n sure_o lest_o he_o shall_v defer_v to_o do_v good_a as_o his_o manner_n be_v for_o though_o his_o life_n be_v so_o short_a yet_o he_o think_v it_o to_o long_o to_o repent_v for_o we_o defer_v till_o that_o week_n which_o we_o think_v will_v be_v our_o last_o consider_v this_o all_o which_o travel_n towards_o heaven_n have_v we_o not_o need_v to_o make_v haste_n which_o must_v go_v such_o a_o long_a journey_n in_o such_o a_o short_a space_n how_o can_v he_o choose_v which_o remember_v that_o every_o day_n run_v away_o with_o his_o life_n the_o four_o point_n be_v our_o aptness_n to_o forget_v death_n rather_o than_o any_o thing_n else_o and_o therefore_o moses_n pray_v the_o lord_n to_o teach_v he_o to_o remember_v his_o day_n as_o though_o they_o be_v still_o drip_v out_o of_o his_o mind_n for_o when_o moses_n pray_v the_o lord_n to_o teach_v he_o to_o remember_v his_o day_n he_o signify_v that_o he_o very_o

before_o we_o be_v old_a there_o be_v a_o kind_n of_o man_n which_o can_v abide_v to_o hear_v of_o death_n they_o be_v sick_a with_o the_o name_n of_o it_o the_o reason_n be_v death_n prophsy_v no_o

therefore_o their_o care_n be_v not_o to_o remember_v death_n that_o thereby_o they_o may_v apply_v their_o heart_n unto_o wisdom_n and_o so_o loose_a their_o pleasure_n before_o their_o time_n for_o
