a_o caveat_n for_o sverty_n two_o sermon_n of_o suertiship_n make_v in_o bristol_n by_o vv._n burton_n london_n print_v by_o richard_n field_n for_o toby_n cook_n dwell_v in_o paul_n churchyard_n at_o

thyself_o see_v thou_o be_v come_v into_o the_o hand_n of_o thy_o neighbour_n go_v and_o humble_v thyself_o and_o solicit_v thy_o friend_n 4._o give_v no_o sleep_n to_o thy_o eye_n nor_o slumber_n to_o thy_o eye_n lid_n 5._o deliver_v thyself_o as_o a_o do_v from_o the_o hand_n of_o the_o hunter_n &_o as_o a_o bird_n from_o the_o hand_n of_o the_o fowler_n this_o text_n be_v a_o school_n wherein_o surety_n be_v teach_v to_o fly_v such_o discommodity_n and_o annoyaunce_n as_o common_o come_v to_o surety_n by_o undiscretenesse_n and_o rashness_n and_o it_o may_v be_v call_v the_o surety_n text_n because_o it_o provide_v for_o the_o security_n of_o surety_n as_o surety_n provide_v for_o the_o security_n of_o other_o wherein_o almighty_a god_n give_v counsel_n unto_o surety_n as_o unto_o his_o child_n which_o if_o they_o follow_v then_o be_v they_o sure_a to_o stand_v when_o other_o be_v like_a to_o fall_v therefore_o as_o s._n paul_n say_v to_o timothy_n in_o a_o other_o case_n take_v heed_n to_o thyself_o &_o to_o learning_n and_o continue_v therein_o for_o in_o so_o 16._o do_v thou_o shall_v save_v thyself_o &_o they_o that_o hear_v thou_o so_o i_o say_v to_o surety_n take_v heed_n to_o yourselves_o and_o to_o your_o heavenly_a father_n counsel_n and_o continue_v therein_o for_o in_o so_o do_v you_o shall_v save_v both_o yourselves_o and_o other_o the_o candle_n that_o be_v carry_v in_o a_o lantern_n shall_v light_v many_o candle_n &_o yet_o lose_v no_o part_n of_o his_o own_o light_n be_v the_o wind_n never_o so_o boisterous_a but_o that_o candle_n that_o be_v open_a to_o the_o weather_n a_o little_a puff_n of_o wind_n or_o one_o drop_n of_o rain_n shall_v put_v it_o out_o that_o it_o can_v neither_o give_v light_n to_o other_o nor_o to_o itself_o so_o he_o to_o who_o the_o word_n of_o god_n be_v a_o lantern_n &_o a_o light_n shall_v help_v himself_o and_o other_o when_o he_o 119._o that_o venture_v without_o it_o shall_v put_v out_o his_o own_o light_n and_o the_o light_n of_o other_o also_o here_o therefore_o the_o lord_n do_v teach_v man_n to_o avoid_v such_o discommodity_n and_o annoyance_n as_o many_o through_o rashness_n and_o for_o want_v of_o discretion_n do_v fall_v into_o for_o the_o lord_n people_n must_v be_v a_o wise_a people_n and_o god_n will_v not_o have_v thou_o to_o help_v thy_o neighbour_n without_o any_o care_n to_o save_v thyself_o for_o although_o he_o have_v say_v love_n thy_o neighbour_n as_o thyself_o 6._o yet_o he_o never_o say_v love_v thy_o neighbour_n better_o they_o thyself_o or_o love_v thyself_o less_o than_o thy_o neighbour_n but_o love_v he_o as_o thyself_o that_o be_v help_v he_o and_o save_v thyself_o too_o or_o else_o thou_o shall_v love_v he_o and_o hate_n thyself_o which_o in_o the_o same_o word_n be_v condemn_v for_o this_o end_n and_o purpose_n it_o have_v please_v the_o lord_n that_o dwell_v in_o the_o heaven_n to_o stoop_v down_o so_o low_a as_o to_o take_v order_n

it_o be_v a_o economical_a thing_n yet_o it_o be_v not_o a_o base_a thing_n as_o some_o have_v think_v the_o spirit_n of_o god_n to_o occupy_v himself_o in_o base_a matter_n but_o by_o this_o we_o

to_o the_o contrary_n but_o let_v we_o see_v be_v it_o lawful_a for_o a_o christian_n to_o bind_v himself_o by_o vow_n or_o by_o oath_n or_o by_o bond_n from_o a_o duty_n so_o necessary_a so_o
