a_o man_n good_a or_o bad_a job_n be_v call_v a_o perfect_a man_n because_o he_o fear_v god_n and_o bless_a be_v the_o man_n that_o delight_v in_o god_n and_o all_o thing_n work_v together_o for_o

and_o his_o sorrow_n right_a therefore_o look_v to_o thy_o affection_n which_o be_v the_o motion_n of_o thy_o will_n so_o as_o the_o affection_n be_v so_o be_v the_o man_n if_o man_n action_n be_v

inordinate_a affection_n 3_o make_v much_o for_o satan_n to_o take_v possession_n of_o the_o soul_n therefore_o it_o stand_v you_o upon_o to_o keep_v they_o right_a and_o straight_o ephes._n 4._o

possess_v by_o satan_n so_o by_o strange_a lust_n satan_n slide_v into_o the_o heart_n of_o man_n and_o they_o see_v it_o not_o and_o therefore_o labour_v to_o mortify_v they_o 1_o pet._n 5._o 8._o

be_v the_o first_o mover_n simile_n if_o man_n be_v exhort_v to_o abstain_v from_o evil_a action_n and_o evil_a speech_n man_n think_v that_o there_o be_v some_o reason_n for_o it_o but_o for_o evil_a affection_n they_o see_v no_o such_o necessity_n but_o consider_v you_o evil_a affection_n produce_v evil_a action_n evil_a affection_n communicate_v evil_a to_o a_o man_n as_o fire_n heat_v water_n and_o yet_o have_v more_o heat_n in_o itself_o so_o affection_n make_v speech_n and_o action_n evil_a and_o therefore_o god_n judge_v by_o affection_n we_o indeed_o judge_v affection_n by_o action_n we_o can_v know_v they_o perfect_o yet_o do_v we_o judge_v by_o the_o same_o rule_n as_o far_o as_o we_o can_v let_v a_o man_n have_v a_o injury_n do_v he_o he_o look_v to_o the_o affection_n that_o be_v to_o the_o man_n whether_o it_o come_v out_o of_o anger_n and_o malice_n if_o a_o man_n have_v a_o good_a turn_n do_v he_o he_o look_v to_o the_o affection_n if_o he_o see_v great_a good_a in_o they_o than_o in_o the_o action_n for_o in_o a_o good_a action_n the_o will_n be_v more_o than_o the_o deed_n the_o willingness_n of_o do_v it_o be_v of_o a_o rare_a rank_n than_o the_o do_v the_o thing_n itself_o so_o a_o evil_a affection_n be_v more_o than_o a_o evil_a speech_n or_o a_o evil_a action_n in_o this_o regard_n therefore_o labour_v to_o mortify_v they_o because_o they_o be_v instigator_n of_o evil_a if_o affection_n be_v of_o so_o great_a a_o moment_n as_o you_o have_v use_v hear_v then_o do_v that_o which_o be_v the_o main_a scope_n of_o all_o take_v pain_n with_o your_o heart_n to_o mortify_v they_o when_o they_o be_v unruly_a to_o bring_v they_o under_o if_o strong_a affection_n solicit_v we_o give_v they_o a_o peremptory_a denial_n harken_v to_o the_o physician_n rather_o than_o to_o the_o disease_n the_o disease_n call_v for_o one_o thing_n the_o physician_n for_o another_o if_o man_n yield_v to_o the_o disease_n they_o kill_v themselves_o here_o be_v the_o

a_o man_n slay_v himself_o this_o will_n be_v the_o best_a part_n &_o strength_n of_o a_o man_n for_o when_o he_o subdue_v his_o lust_n and_o bring_v they_o in_o obedience_n to_o christ_n he_o sacrifice_v the_o vigour_n of_o the_o will_v man_n be_v as_o his_o affection_n be_v affection_n be_v to_o the_o soul_n as_o member_n be_v to_o the_o body_n crookedness_n in_o the_o member_n hinder_v a_o man_n go_v so_o crookedness_n in_o the_o affection_n hinder_v the_o soul_n those_o that_o keep_v clock_n if_o they_o will_v have_v they_o go_v true_a than_o every_o simile_n thing_n must_v be_v keep_v in_o order_n so_o in_o affection_n keep_v they_o straight_o because_o they_o have_v such_o a_o hand_n in_o the_o will_n one_o have_v a_o affection_n to_o filthiness_n another_o to_o

the_o rudder_n of_o the_o soul_n another_o way_n they_o cast_v we_o into_o another_o mould_n therefore_o labour_v to_o subdue_v they_o and_o so_o much_o the_o rather_o because_o they_o make_v a_o man_n not_o only_o good_a but_o abundant_a in_o good_a or_o evil_a good_a do_v prescribe_v to_o a_o man_n exact_o what_o he_o shall_v do_v but_o yet_o leave_v some_o freewill_n offering_n on_o purpose_n to_o try_v our_o love_n to_o try_v our_o affection_n the_o rule_n of_o duty_n be_v leave_v partly_o to_o the_o rule_n of_o affection_n that_o we_o may_v abound_v in_o good_a a_o man_n may_v do_v much_o in_o resolution_n but_o the_o affection_n make_v it_o acceptable_a paul_n may_v have_v take_v for_o his_o labour_n of_o the_o corinthian_n but_o the_o fullness_n of_o his_o love_n will_v not_o suffer_v he_o that_o be_v god_n and_o they_o set_v he_o on_o work_n thus_o affection_n make_v a_o man_n abound_v in_o good_a it_o be_v david_n love_n to_o god_n that_o make_v he_o build_v a_o temple_n to_o god_n in_o short_a affection_n make_v a_o man_n beautiful_a unto_o god_n and_o man_n now_o if_o affection_n be_v so_o rare_a and_o yet_o so_o subject_a to_o be_v inordinate_a it_o be_v wisdom_n to_o know_v how_o they_o may_v be_v help_v if_o any_o thing_n do_v want_v mean_n of_o help_n this_o do_v because_o it_o be_v a_o hard_a thing_n to_o keep_v down_o unruly_a affection_n therefore_o we_o will_v come_v to_o lay_v down_o some_o mean_n to_o help_v you_o to_o keep_v they_o down_o affection_n the_o first_o mean_n be_v that_o we_o labour_v to_o see_v the_o disease_n for_o no_o man_n will_v seek_v for_o cure_n except_o he_o see_v 1._o the_o disease_n the_o sight_n of_o the_o disease_n be_v half_a the_o cure_n of_o it_o labour_v to_o see_v your_o inordinate_a affection_n and_o to_o be_v persuade_v and_o convince_v of_o they_o this_o be_v a_o hard_a thing_n a_o man_n do_v not_o see_v his_o evil_a inclination_n because_o those_o very_a inclination_n blind_v his_o eye_n and_o darken_v his_o understanding_n and_o cast_v a_o mist_n before_o he_o notwithstanding_o which_o we_o must_v labour_v to_o do_v that_o what_o we_o can_v as_o there_o be_v
