A91363	A little cabinet richly stored with all sorts of heavenly varieties, and soul-reviving influences. Wherein there is a remedy for every malady, viz. milk for babes, and meat for strong men, and the ready way for both to obtain and retain assurance of salvation: being an abridgement of the sum and substance of the true Christian religion; wherein the cause of our salvation, the way, the guide, the rule, the evidence, the seals, &c. and the connection of these points together, and dependancy of them one upon another: this I have endeavoured to do orderly, exactly, methodically, with much plainness and clearness. / By Robert Purnell.

moses_n exceed_v abraham_n in_o meekness_n and_o job_n exceed_v both_o in_o patience_n and_o joshua_n exceed_v all_o three_o in_o valour_n so_o the_o church_n of_o the_o roman_n exceed_v the_o

more_o particular_o let_v we_o inquire_v into_o this_o what_o those_o best_a gift_n be_v that_o christ_n give_v unto_o his_o best_a belove_v one_o there_o be_v common_a gift_n that_o all_o in_o
