thought_n and_o prayer_n unto_o god_n for_o you_o as_o i_o have_v good_a cause_n when_o i_o remember_v the_o great_a care_n and_o love_n that_o you_o and_o m._n hutchinson_n do_v show_v unto_o i_o when_o i_o be_v prisoner_n in_o your_o house_n oh_o that_o it_o will_v please_v the_o lord_n to_o make_v i_o as_o happy_a a_o prisoner_n unto_o you_o as_o saint_n paul_n be_v unto_o his_o keeper_n at_o philippi_n whereof_o you_o may_v read_v in_o the_o sixteen_o chapter_n of_o the_o act_n of_o the_o apostle_n who_o at_o saint_n paul_n first_o come_v into_o the_o prison_n be_v in_o such_o a_o woeful_a estate_n of_o a_o persecute_a infidel_n yet_o that_o night_n be_v terrify_v with_o the_o earthquake_n and_o fear_n of_o the_o loss_n of_o his_o prisoner_n will_v desperate_o have_v murder_v himself_o but_o saint_n paul_n have_v pity_n and_o compassion_n upon_o he_o cry_v out_o with_o a_o loud_a voice_n do_v thyself_o no_o harm_n for_o we_o be_v all_o here_o and_o then_o with_o fear_n and_o tremble_v he_o fall_v down_o before_o they_o and_o bring_v they_o out_o of_o prison_n and_o say_v sir_n what_o must_v i_o do_v to_o be_v save_v and_o saint_n paul_n preach_v unto_o they_o to_o believe_v in_o the_o lord_n jesus_n and_o he_o and_o his_o household_n shall_v be_v save_v and_o so_o through_o the_o lord_n great_a mercy_n they_o be_v convert_v and_o baptise_v and_o great_o rejoice_v that_o he_o and_o all_o his_o house_n believe_v in_o god_n now_o though_o i_o have_v not_o see_v you_o so_o desperate_o mind_v to_o kill_v yourself_o with_o your_o sword_n for_o fear_n of_o my_o escape_n yet_o i_o must_v needs_o say_v i_o have_v see_v you_o ready_a to_o wound_v your_o soul_n with_o fearful_a swear_n and_o excessive_a drink_n and_o how_o great_o this_o may_v endanger_v your_o soul_n and_o body_n also_o you_o may_v consider_v of_o it_o you_o remember_v well_o that_o the_o lord_n will_v not_o hold_v he_o guiltless_a that_o take_v his_o name_n in_o vain_a and_o saint_n paul_n do_v testify_v that_o drunkard_n shall_v not_o inherit_v the_o kingdom_n of_o god_n galat._n 5._o 22._o but_o of_o these_o sin_n i_o have_v admonish_v you_o of_o when_o i_o be_v with_o you_o and_o through_o the_o lord_n great_a mercy_n find_v some_o reformation_n thereof_o in_o that_o i_o do_v see_v you_o refrain_v from_o such_o excessive_a drink_n and_o sometime_o abstain_v a_o oath_n and_o reprove_v other_o for_o swear_v i_o know_v that_o be_v a_o hard_a matter_n sudden_o to_o cast_v off_o such_o grow_a sin_n and_o those_o whereunto_o you_o have_v be_v so_o long_o accustom_v but_o on_o the_o other_o side_n also_o i_o know_v it_o be_v a_o easy_a thing_n unto_o our_o omnipotent_a god_n to_o set_v your_o foot_n into_o the_o way_n of_o peace_n oh_o therefore_o unto_o that_o merciful_a god_n to_o convert_v your_o soul_n and_o to_o set_v your_o foot_n into_o the_o way_n of_o peace_n oh_o therefore_o pray_v unto_o that_o bless_a lord_n and_o importune_v he_o with_o earnest_n and_o zealous_a prayer_n day_n and_o night_n until_o he_o have_v wrought_v in_o you_o that_o bless_a work_n to_o give_v you_o grace_v not_o only_o to_o see_v your_o sin_n but_o give_v you_o also_o true_a repentance_n and_o godly_a sorrow_n for_o they_o that_o you_o may_v now_o loathe_v they_o more_o than_o ever_o you_o love_v they_o and_o utter_o detest_v and_o abhor_v they_o though_o they_o be_v as_o dear_a unto_o you_o as_o your_o right_a eye_n and_o as_o profitable_a unto_o you_o as_o your_o right_a hand_n yet_o cast_v they_o off_o and_o cast_v they_o from_o you_o for_o it_o be_v better_a for_o we_o to_o enter_v into_o the_o kingdom_n of_o heaven_n so_o maim_v and_o spoil_v of_o our_o sin_n then_o to_o enjoy_v they_o here_o for_o a_o short_a time_n and_o then_o both_o soul_n and_o body_n to_o be_v cast_v into_o hell_n fire_n where_o there_o be_v weep_v and_o wail_v in_o everlasting_a darkness_n and_o now_o that_o you_o may_v escape_v those_o everlasting_a torment_n and_o attain_v to_o the_o kingdom_n of_o heaven_n and_o the_o righteousness_n thereof_o you_o must_v settle_v yourself_o to_o the_o constant_a perform_n of_o those_o holy_a duty_n of_o prayer_n and_o hear_v the_o word_n of_o god_n and_o you_o must_v take_v unto_o you_o that_o christian_a resolution_n that_o no_o fear_n of_o man_n displeasure_n nor_o the_o mock_n and_o scoff_n of_o wicked_a man_n shall_v make_v you_o never_o to_o neglect_v the_o same_o i_o mean_v you_o must_v not_o be_v ashamed_a to_o go_v to_o sermon_n nor_o to_o keep_v holy_a the_o sabbath-day_n nor_o to_o pray_v with_o your_o wife_n and_o servant_n though_o all_o the_o drunken_a companion_n in_o kent_n shall_v rail_v or_o jeer_v at_o you_o for_o the_o same_o but_o remember_v that_o those_o that_o be_v ashamed_a of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n and_o of_o his_o holy_a service_n on_o earth_n he_o will_v be_v ashamed_a to_o own_o they_o in_o the_o day_n of_o judgement_n and_o leave_v they_o to_o their_o devilish_a master_n and_o to_o those_o hellish_a torment_n which_o he_o have_v prepare_v for_o such_o base_a slave_n that_o do_v prefer_v the_o service_n of_o the_o devil_n before_o the_o service_n of_o god_n and_o then_o will_v they_o cry_v unto_o the_o mountain_n to_o cover_v they_o and_o to_o hill_n to_o fall_v upon_o they_o rather_o than_o they_o will_v hear_v the_o dreadful_a sentence_n of_o go_v you_o curse_v into_o hell_n fire_n prepare_v for_o the_o devil_n and_o his_o angel_n and_o the_o woeful_a execution_n that_o follow_v thereupon_o to_o be_v close_v up_o for_o ever_o in_o utter_a darkness_n and_o there_o to_o be_v torment_v with_o those_o damn_a spirit_n where_o in_o stead_n of_o their_o carouse_v and_o filthy_a speak_v they_o shall_v have_v weep_v and_o wail_v and_o gnash_n of_o tooth_n for_o evermore_o and_o never_o shall_v behold_v the_o face_n of_o any_o man_n nor_o hear_v the_o voice_n of_o any_o creature_n to_o yield_v they_o comfort_v but_o as_o they_o delight_v themselves_o in_o swear_v and_o stare_v in_o curse_v and_o rage_a so_o they_o shall_v have_v their_o fill_n thereof_o among_o those_o rage_a and_o furious_a damn_a spirit_n and_o yet_o shall_v not_o procure_v one_o drop_n of_o water_n to_o cool_v their_o tongue_n although_o they_o be_v torment_v in_o those_o hellish_a flame_n as_o you_o may_v read_v in_o the_o example_n of_o dives_fw-la saint_n luke_n 16._o 29._o and_o then_o my_o love_a keeper_n be_v it_o not_o much_o better_a with_o moses_n to_o choose_v rather_o to_o suffer_v affliction_n with_o the_o child_n of_o god_n then_o to_o enjoy_v the_o pleasure_n of_o sin_n for_o a_o season_n and_o then_o to_o go_v to_o everlasting_a torment_n and_o what_o if_o you_o be_v mock_v and_o point_v at_o for_o a_o puritan_n and_o be_v count_v a_o mad_a man_n because_o you_o separate_v yourself_o from_o the_o company_n of_o blasphemous_a wretch_n and_o abominable_a drunkard_n and_o do_v now_o resolve_v to_o serve_v the_o live_a god_n with_o a_o honest_a heart_n nay_o what_o if_o you_o shall_v be_v persecute_v and_o imprison_v for_o his_o namesake_n rejoice_v and_o be_v glad_a for_o great_a be_v your_o reward_n in_o heaven_n for_o so_o persecute_v they_o the_o prophet_n and_o holy_a man_n of_o god_n in_o former_a time_n and_o so_o likewise_o do_v the_o jew_n persecute_v our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n and_o say_v he_o be_v mad_a and_o have_v a_o devil_n and_o if_o they_o deal_v thus_o with_o he_o our_o lord_n and_o master_n shall_v we_o look_v for_o a_o great_a privilege_n nay_o let_v we_o with_o a_o holy_a resolution_n arm_v ourselves_o to_o encounter_v with_o all_o their_o temptation_n and_o with_o the_o bless_a apostle_n rejoice_v that_o we_o be_v account_v worthy_a in_o such_o a_o honourable_a cause_n and_o to_o be_v make_v like_o unto_o our_o saviour_n christ_n in_o any_o sort_n for_o he_o enter_v into_o his_o kingdom_n of_o glory_n through_o many_o tribulation_n i_o be_o a_o little_a the_o more_o earnest_a upon_o this_o point_n because_o even_o while_o i_o be_v with_o you_o i_o fear_v there_o be_v some_o that_o do_v with_o scoff_v and_o jeer_a seek_v to_o discourage_v you_o in_o those_o good_a course_n whereunto_o you_o be_v so_o tractable_a but_o i_o beseech_v the_o lord_n of_o mercy_n strengthen_v your_o faith_n that_o you_o may_v not_o only_o come_v secret_o unto_o christ_n as_o nicodemus_n do_v but_o bold_o speak_v to_o his_o glory_n as_o nicodemus_n do_v afterwards_o and_o then_o i_o trust_v you_o shall_v find_v great_a comfort_n unto_o your_o own_o soul_n and_o cause_v the_o angel_n in_o heaven_n to_o rejoice_v for_o as_o our_o saviour_n christ_n say_v luke_n 15._o i_o say_v unto_o you_o likewise_o joy_n shall_v be_v in_o heaven_n for_o one_o sinner_n that_o convert_v more_o than_o
