soul_n from_o heaven_n to_o earth_n second_o they_o be_v such_o a_o burden_n as_o except_o they_o be_v disburden_v except_o we_o acquit_v ourselves_o of_o they_o they_o will_v press_v our_o soul_n down_o from_o earth_n to_o hell_n reas_n 1_o first_o the_o press_v the_o soul_n from_o heaven_n to_o earth_n earth_n they_o press_v the_o soul_n from_o heaven_n to_o earth_n from_o heavenly_a affection_n to_o earthly_a look_v as_o a_o man_n be_v oppress_v with_o a_o great_a burden_n from_o which_o he_o be_v not_o able_a to_o rise_v nor_o to_o stir_v hand_n nor_o foot_n to_o help_v himself_o for_o the_o do_v of_o any_o thing_n so_o it_o be_v with_o a_o man_n when_o his_o soul_n be_v overcharge_v with_o surfeit_v and_o drunkenness_n and_o the_o care_n of_o this_o life_n he_o be_v oppress_v with_o a_o grievous_a burden_n he_o be_v not_o able_a to_o stir_v hand_n nor_o foot_n he_o be_v not_o able_a to_o exercise_v the_o power_n and_o faculty_n of_o his_o soul_n to_o do_v any_o good_a or_o to_o perform_v any_o spiritual_a dutte_n indeed_o as_o for_o two_o of_o they_o the_o two_o first_o surfeit_v and_o drunkenness_n they_o disable_v a_o man_n from_o worldly_a performance_n therefore_o much_o more_o from_o heavenly_a and_o spiritual_a performance_n for_o the_o other_o the_o care_n of_o this_o life_n covetousness_n they_o burden_v the_o soul_n no_o less_o than_o the_o former_a though_o i_o grant_v it_o be_v more_o sly_o and_o insensible_o nay_o they_o burden_v the_o soul_n in_o these_o two_o respect_n more_o first_o surfeit_v and_o drunkenness_n they_o burden_v the_o soul_n but_o now_o and_o then_o sometime_o no_o man_n be_v continual_o surfeit_v or_o drink_v but_o when_o covetousness_n oppress_v the_o soul_n it_o do_v it_o constant_o it_o be_v a_o continual_a burden_n therefore_o in_o that_o respect_n they_o burden_v the_o soul_n more_o than_o the_o former_a second_o surfeit_v and_o drunkenness_n they_o burden_v the_o soul_n not_o immediate_o but_o by_o the_o body_n they_o burden_v the_o body_n the_o instrument_n of_o the_o soul_n and_o so_o by_o consequence_n the_o soul_n but_o covetousness_n burden_v the_o soul_n immediate_o it_o hang_v a_o weight_n as_o a_o plummet_n of_o lead_n upon_o every_o faculty_n of_o the_o soul_n so_o that_o the_o soul_n can_v lift_v itself_o to_o any_o spiritual_a duty_n it_o hang_v a_o plummet_n of_o lead_n upon_o every_o power_n of_o the_o soul_n whereby_o it_o become_v bow_v and_o bend_a to_o the_o earth_n will_v you_o see_v the_o truth_n of_o this_o in_o some_o particular_n the_o high_a and_o noble_a faculty_n of_o the_o soul_n be_v the_o understanding_n that_o whereby_o we_o apprehend_v and_o judge_v of_o thing_n now_o covetousness_n clog_n and_o burden_n the_o understanding_n take_v a_o covetous_a man_n there_o be_v no_o man_n so_o dull_a to_o apprehend_v spiritual_a thing_n as_o he_o indeed_o in_o matter_n of_o the_o world_n talk_v with_o he_o in_o his_o own_o sphere_n of_o the_o world_n and_o worldly_a thing_n there_o i_o grant_v he_o be_v quick_a and_o nimble_a enough_o if_o not_o above_o yet_o equal_a with_o other_o for_o the_o most_o part_n above_o other_o it_o fare_v with_o a_o covetous_a man_n as_o it_o be_v with_o the_o moon_n when_o the_o moon_n be_v enlighten_v in_o that_o part_n that_o be_v towards_o the_o earth_n common_o it_o be_v most_o dark_a in_o that_o part_n that_o be_v towards_o heaven_n simile_n simile_n so_o it_o be_v in_o this_o there_o be_v ignorance_n of_o spiritual_a thing_n oft_o time_n where_o there_o be_v the_o great_a light_n towards_o the_o thing_n of_o the_o world_n i_o say_v talk_v with_o such_o a_o one_o in_o his_o own_o sphere_n of_o matter_n of_o the_o world_n and_o the_o thing_n of_o it_o he_o be_v quick_a and_o nimble_a enough_o but_o come_v to_o spiritual_a thing_n that_o concern_v the_o life_n to_o come_v and_o there_o he_o be_v a_o very_a nichodemus_n he_o understand_v nothing_o covetousness_n be_v to_o the_o understanding_n like_o the_o nail_n of_o jael_n say_v the_o text_n jael_n drive_v the_o nail_n through_o sisera_n temple_n when_o he_o be_v asleep_a and_o fasten_v his_o head_n to_o the_o ground_n so_o covetousness_n fasten_v the_o head_n the_o understanding_n to_o the_o ground_n that_o it_o can_v lift_v up_o itself_o to_o apprehend_v and_o understand_v the_o thing_n of_o the_o spirit_n we_o see_v then_o covetousness_n it_o burden_v the_o chief_a faculty_n of_o the_o soul_n the_o understanding_n and_o so_o for_o the_o other_o faculty_n the_o will_n and_o the_o affection_n it_o burden_v they_o it_o make_v the_o will_n and_o the_o affection_n of_o a_o man_n when_o once_o it_o possess_v they_o like_o the_o woman_n in_o the_o gospel_n that_o have_v a_o disease_n and_o infirmity_n 18._o

to_o the_o ground_n that_o they_o can_v constant_o delight_v in_o these_o thing_n i_o grant_v that_o a_o covetous_a man_n for_o a_o fit_a for_o a_o while_n his_o will_n and_o affection_n may_v lift_v

the_o fancy_n and_o memory_n and_o speech_n too_o it_o burden_v those_o take_v a_o man_n that_o be_v covetous_a his_o imagination_n work_v and_o exercise_v itself_o about_o the_o thing_n of_o the_o

may_v signify_v and_o do_v proper_o gluttony_n of_o which_o i_o have_v tell_v you_o before_o in_o time_n past_a that_o they_o that_o do_v such_o thing_n shall_v not_o inherit_v the_o kingdom_n of_o

this_o sin_n as_o a_o burden_n to_o burden_v the_o soul_n it_o may_v be_v a_o motive_n to_o force_v this_o caution_n of_o christ_n to_o take_v heed_n that_o we_o be_v not_o overcharge_v with_o

of_o ourselves_o lumpish_a and_o heavy_a enough_o to_o perform_v spiritual_a duty_n we_o need_v not_o make_v ourselves_o more_o heavy_a we_o bring_v into_o the_o world_n burden_n enough_o to_o press_v

give_v to_o these_o sin_n they_o feel_v not_o a_o burden_n if_o it_o be_v the_o property_n of_o these_o sin_n to_o be_v a_o burden_n than_o they_o that_o be_v subject_a to_o they_o will_v feel_v the_o

of_o the_o sea_n or_o the_o top_n of_o a_o mast_n the_o wise_a man_n resemble_v a_o drunken_a man_n to_o a_o man_n that_o lie_v on_o the_o top_n of_o a_o mast_n in_o a_o great_a storm_n when_o there_o

of_o the_o wound_n and_o plague_n that_o he_o receive_v by_o it_o i_o grant_v that_o they_o that_o be_v addict_v to_o these_o sin_n they_o feel_v not_o the_o burden_n because_o it_o be_v the_o

because_o it_o be_v not_o feel_v as_o the_o physician_n say_v of_o disease_n of_o all_o disease_n those_o be_v most_o dangerous_a that_o be_v not_o feel_v and_o that_o be_v the_o reason_n that_o a_o

to_o be_v cure_v when_o it_o be_v easy_a to_o be_v cure_v it_o be_v almost_o impossible_a to_o be_v discern_v and_o when_o it_o be_v easy_a to_o be_v discern_v it_o be_v almost_o impossible_a to_o

that_o be_v not_o feel_v the_o reason_n be_v because_o the_o feel_n of_o the_o danger_n make_v man_n seek_v for_o remedy_n and_o labour_n to_o be_v disburden_v of_o they_o when_o they_o feel_v the_o

of_o the_o burden_n it_o be_v with_o sin_n as_o the_o philosopher_n say_v it_o be_v with_o heavy_a element_n it_o be_v a_o rule_n in_o philosophy_n that_o a_o element_n in_o its_o proper_a place_n

no_o we_o must_v not_o willing_o ordinary_o be_v among_o they_o we_o must_v not_o choose_v such_o company_n to_o converse_v with_o why_o because_o there_o be_v danger_n of_o infection_n epicure_n danger_n in_o converse_v with_o epicure_n first_o there_o be_v danger_n by_o their_o example_n and_o then_o there_o be_v danger_n by_o their_o exhortation_n or_o counsel_n first_o by_o their_o

of_o their_o counsel_n but_o why_o be_v we_o to_o take_v heed_n that_o our_o heart_n be_v not_o overcharge_v with_o surfeit_v i_o answer_v first_o because_o if_o our_o heart_n be_v reas_n 1_o overcharge_v duty_n it_o unfit_v we_o for_o good_a duty_n we_o be_v unfit_a to_o perform_v spiritual_a duty_n i_o tell_v you_o before_o surfeit_v burthen_v and_o overcharge_v the_o soul_n and_o make_v it_o heavy_a and_o lumpish_a not_o able_a to_o lift_v up_o itself_o to_o perform_v any_o spiritual_a duty_n it_o be_v a_o pretty_a conceit_n of_o saint_n chrysostome_n in_o his_o first_o homily_n on_o genesis_n that_o moses_n 1._o s._n chrysost_o gen._n hom_n 1._o when_o he_o come_v from_o the_o mount_n and_o bring_v the_o two_o table_n of_o the_o commandment_n with_o he_o when_o he_o perceive_v the_o people_n of_o israel_n to_o who_o he_o come_v that_o they_o have_v fill_v themselves_o full_a and_o betake_v themselves_o to_o dance_v and_o sport_v themselves_o say_v saint_n chrysostome_n he_o take_v the_o table_n and_o throw_v they_o down_o why_o he_o think_v it_o a_o absurd_a and_o unfit_a thing_n to_o give_v commandment_n for_o they_o to_o observe_v who_o now_o have_v gorge_v themselves_o with_o meat_n no_o man_n be_v so_o unfit_a for_o the_o service_n of_o god_n to_o observe_v the_o commandment_n of_o god_n as_o those_o that_o have_v surfeit_v and_o fill_v themselves_o with_o meat_n so_o likewise_o say_v our_o saviour_n take_v heed_n to_o yourselves_o lest_o at_o any_o time_n your_o heart_n be_v overcharge_v with_o surfeit_v in_o the_o next_o verse_n but_o one_o say_v he_o watch_z and_o pray_v always_o he_o oppose_v watch_v and_o prayer_n to_o surfeit_v those_o that_o have_v their_o heart_n overcharge_v with_o surfeit_v can_v watch_v and_o pray_v and_o perform_v spiritual_a duty_n now_o therefore_o the_o first_o reason_n why_o we_o shall_v be_v heedful_a that_o our_o heart_n be_v not_o overcharge_v with_o surfeit_v be_v because_o it_o make_v our_o soul_n unfit_a for_o the_o performance_n of_o spiritual_a duty_n it_o make_v we_o unapt_a for_o the_o do_v of_o that_o for_o which_o we_o come_v into_o the_o world_n reas_n 2_o second_o we_o be_v to_o take_v heed_n of_o it_o because_o surfeit_v be_v the_o nurse_n of_o security_n security_n it_o be_v the_o nurse_n of_o security_n when_o a_o man_n have_v fill_v himself_o with_o meat_n and_o drink_n as_o it_o be_v apt_a to_o incline_v he_o to_o bodily_a sleep_n so_o it_o be_v to_o spiritual_a sleep_n too_o to_o security_n he_o that_o give_v himself_o to_o satisfy_v his_o sensual_a immoderate_a appetite_n there_o be_v no_o man_n so_o subject_a to_o security_n see_v the_o truth_n of_o this_o in_o those_o of_o the_o old_a world_n in_o the_o time_n of_o noah_n though_o he_o preach_v to_o they_o that_o the_o world_n shall_v be_v drown_v and_o overwhelm_v yet_o they_o care_v not_o they_o be_v secure_a and_o careless_a and_o fear_v not_o the_o threaten_n of_o noah_n nor_o the_o judgement_n of_o

and_o give_v in_o marriage_n till_o the_o day_n that_o noah_n enter_v into_o the_o ark_n and_o the_o flood_n come_v and_o destroy_v they_o all_o but_o why_o do_v the_o flood_n come_v and_o destroy_v they_o the_o reason_n be_v insinuate_v in_o these_o word_n because_o they_o eat_v and_o drink_v that_o be_v they_o give_v themselves_o to_o immoderate_a eat_n and_o drink_v three_o lust_n it_o breed_v many_o lust_n we_o shall_v therefore_o be_v careful_a reas_n 3_o that_o our_o heart_n be_v not_o overcharge_v with_o surfeit_v because_o surfeit_v occasion_n and_o breed_v many_o lust_n it_o feed_v

that_o which_o be_v the_o principle_n of_o spiritual_a life_n now_o the_o cause_n and_o fountain_n of_o spiritual_a life_n be_v christ_n so_o say_v the_o apostle_n in_o this_o chapter_n verse_n 11._o 6.11_o rom_n 6.11_o likewise_o reckon_v you_o yourselves_o dead_a to_o sin_n but_o alive_a to_o god_n through_o jesus_n christ_n our_o lord_n it_o be_v through_o christ_n that_o we_o be_v alive_a to_o god_n now_o i_o say_v that_o that_o knit_v and_o unite_v we_o to_o the_o fountain_n of_o spiritual_a life_n it_o be_v faith_n he_o then_o that_o have_v faith_n that_o man_n be_v alive_a to_o god_n but_o he_o that_o have_v no_o faith_n that_o man_n be_v dead_a in_o sin_n that_o be_v the_o first_o character_n by_o which_o we_o may_v know_v whether_o we_o be_v alive_a with_o christ_n or_o no_o if_o we_o have_v this_o spiritual_a life_n second_o we_o may_v know_v it_o if_o we_o have_v the_o exercise_n of_o this_o spiritual_a life_n every_o thing_n delight_v to_o operate_v and_o exercise_v answerable_a to_o its_o life_n where_o there_o be_v a_o natural_a life_n there_o be_v a_o delight_n in_o action_n that_o be_v natural_a where_o there_o be_v a_o sinful_a life_n there_o be_v a_o
