then_o he_o will_v load_v they_o and_o set_v out_o their_o sin_n to_o the_o full_a in_o a_o most_o ugly_a manner_n nothing_o then_o but_o hell_n fire_n damnation_n and_o the_o curse_n of_o god_n

remembrance_n of_o our_o sin_n and_o the_o call_v they_o to_o mind_n together_o with_o conscience_n accuse_v for_o they_o be_v the_o way_n and_o mean_n to_o come_v to_o true_a repentance_n to_o make_v a_o man_n confess_v they_o and_o beg_v the_o pardon_n of_o they_o whereas_o if_o they_o slip_v out_o of_o our_o mind_n or_o we_o know_v they_o not_o nor_o we_o find_v not_o our_o conscience_n to_o accuse_v we_o of_o they_o alas_o we_o can_v neither_o confess_v they_o nor_o true_o be_v humble_v and_o beg_v the_o pardon_n of_o they_o and_o therefore_o david_n confess_v here_o that_o by_o reason_n his_o sin_n be_v ever_o before_o he_o he_o be_v continual_o vex_v &_o torment_v with_o the_o horror_n of_o they_o his_o conscience_n still_o accuse_v and_o annoy_v he_o and_o therefore_o he_o be_v

psalm_n 81.11_o my_o people_n will_v not_o hear_v my_o voice_n and_o israel_n will_v none_o of_o i_o so_o i_o give_v they_o up_o unto_o the_o hardness_n of_o their_o heart_n and_o they_o have_v walk_v in_o their_o own_o counsel_n repentance_n sight_n of_o sin_n first_o step_n to_o repentance_n so_o then_o hence_o we_o learn_v that_o a_o man_n will_v never_o repent_v true_o of_o his_o sin_n seek_v to_o god_n for_o pardon_n neither_o be_v there_o any_o other_o way_n or_o mean_n to_o be_v reconcile_v to_o god_n but_o this_o to_o feel_v the_o weight_n and_o burden_n of_o his_o sin_n and_o feel_v his_o conscience_n to_o accuse_v he_o to_o vex_v and_o to_o wound_v he_o till_o he_o find_v god_n to_o be_v merciful_a and_o reconcile_v unto_o he_o for_o the_o pardon_n of_o they_o and_o the_o appease_n and_o quiet_v of_o his_o conscience_n use_v 1_o see_v till_o such_o time_n as_o the_o conscience_n be_v wound_v for_o sin_n and_o vex_v and_o torment_v with_o it_o a_o man_n will_v never_o seek_v for_o pardon_n then_o we_o learn_v hence_o that_o no_o man_n can_v taste_v of_o the_o sweetness_n of_o god_n mercy_n in_o christ_n for_o his_o salvation_n till_o he_o have_v taste_v of_o the_o bitter_a fruit_n of_o sin_n and_o of_o a_o wound_a and_o distress_a conscience_n look_v on_o david_n on_o the_o jew_n 2.37_o psal_n 6.32.77_o act_n 2.37_o and_o as_o for_o those_o that_o will_v taste_v of_o god_n mercy_n and_o yet_o be_v loathe_v to_o feel_v the_o smart_n of_o sin_n they_o deceive_v themselves_o we_o see_v that_o ere_o the_o body_n be_v purge_v man_n must_v taste_v of_o bitter_a pill_n of_o bitter_a potion_n conscience_n such_o may_v suspect_v their_o repentance_n who_o feel_v nor_o sin_n to_o wound_v their_o conscience_n and_o as_o for_o those_o who_o never_o feel_v any_o such_o grief_n nor_o wound_n of_o conscience_n no_o such_o astonishment_n for_o their_o sin_n they_o may_v just_o fear_v their_o repentance_n be_v not_o sound_a that_o they_o have_v not_o as_o yet_o be_v true_o humble_v for_o it_o be_v certain_a that_o before_o we_o can_v true_o repent_v and_o be_v reconcile_v to_o god_n we_o must_v have_v the_o feel_n of_o the_o smart_n of_o sin_n and_o find_v our_o heart_n trouble_v and_o our_o conscience_n wound_v use_v 2_o this_o confute_v that_o fond_a and_o foolish_a opinion_n of_o many_o in_o the_o world_n who_o if_o they_o fee_v any_o one_o wound_v for_o sin_n distress_v in_o soul_n cry_v out_o of_o his_o misery_n and_o feel_v his_o conscience_n exceed_o wound_v and_o begin_v even_o to_o despair_v of_o god_n mercy_n what_o do_v man_n judge_v of_o such_o a_o man_n sure_o that_o it_o be_v nothing_o but_o melancholy_a and_o dumpishnesse_n and_o therefore_o they_o counsel_v he_o to_o be_v merry_a to_o go_v to_o merry_a company_n to_o put_v away_o such_o odd_a conceit_n such_o vain_a and_o foolish_a fancy_n but_o alas_o poor_a soul_n they_o consider_v not_o that_o it_o be_v the_o special_a work_n of_o god_n wound_v the_o conscience_n for_o sin_n that_o they_o feel_v the_o anger_n of_o god_n for_o sin_n and_o be_v trouble_v and_o vex_v for_o that_o and_o till_o god_n give_v mercy_n and_o reconciliation_n be_v have_v in_o christ_n there_o can_v be_v no_o peace_n use_v 3_o we_o learn_v hence_o that_o it_o be_v better_a to_o have_v a_o accuse_a conscience_n for_o sin_n then_o to_o have_v a_o dead_a conscience_n judgement_n dead_a conscience_n heavy_a judgement_n a_o benumb_a conscience_n a_o sleepy_a and_o slumber_a conscience_n a_o sear_a and_o freeze_a conscience_n for_o if_o a_o man_n conscience_n do_v daily_o bring_v his_o sin_n to_o his_o mind_n so_o that_o he_o see_v they_o before_o his_o eye_n than_o he_o will_v be_v grieve_v for_o they_o he_o will_v confess_v they_o and_o beg_v the_o pardon_n of_o they_o but_o when_o a_o man_n have_v a_o slumber_a conscience_n that_o be_v benumb_v than_o he_o go_v on_o in_o sin_n from_o day_n to_o day_n never_o feel_v any_o smart_n of_o it_o nor_o ever_o

their_o fearful_a sin_n and_o damnable_a estate_n cry_v out_o for_o mercy_n and_o seek_v for_o pardon_n oh_o it_o be_v a_o fearful_a judgement_n of_o god_n to_o have_v a_o sleepy_a or_o a_o drowsy_a conscience_n it_o be_v like_o a_o wild_a beast_n which_o so_o long_o as_o it_o lie_v asleep_a seem_v very_o tame_a &_o gentle_a but_o when_o he_o be_v rouse_v fly_v into_o a_o man_n face_n even_o so_o
