as_o our_o knowledge_n be_v more_o and_o our_o experience_n great_a and_o therefore_o who_o see_v not_o cause_v sufficient_a that_o our_o affection_n of_o first_o love_n shall_v continue_v i_o may_v

as_o paul_n say_v who_o meat_n and_o drink_n be_v to_o do_v the_o will_n of_o their_o father_n and_o who_o do_v well_o prove_v that_o they_o love_v christ_n more_o than_o all_o other_o thing_n by_o

do_v sometime_o wish_v those_o season_n past_a be_v now_o present_a still_o and_o whatsoever_o cause_v of_o this_o decay_n they_o allege_v yet_o when_o they_o weigh_v their_o case_n upright_o they_o can_v say_v no_o less_o but_o the_o fault_n be_v principal_o in_o themselves_o how_o many_o of_o the_o people_n also_o may_v i_o speak_v of_o who_o verify_v that_o say_n of_o christ_n 5.35_o john_n be_v a_o burn_a light_n and_o for_o a_o season_n you_o delight_v in_o he_o who_o neither_o can_v honour_v god_n as_o than_o they_o do_v nor_o give_v that_o light_n to_o other_o all_o which_o i_o

remember_v from_o whence_o thou_o be_v fall_v and_o repent_v etc._n etc._n thus_o i_o have_v in_o some_o sort_n lay_v forth_o this_o first_o love_n which_o god_n by_o his_o spirit_n work_v in_o all_o his_o elect_a child_n when_o he_o first_o bring_v they_o home_o and_o make_v they_o to_o know_v how_o great_o they_o be_v bind_v to_o he_o for_o their_o so_o admirable_a deliverance_n and_o happy_a conversion_n and_o herewith_o i_o have_v show_v how_o easy_o both_o teacher_n and_o hearer_n leave_v and_o depart_v from_o the_o same_o and_o fall_v from_o it_o though_o otherwise_o they_o keep_v some_o course_n in_o serve_v god_n as_o the_o church_n of_o ephesus_n do_v who_o yet_o the_o lord_n reprove_v sharp_o for_o that_o they_o have_v lose_v this_o 2.2_o for_o thus_o he_o say_v i_o know_v thy_o work_n and_o thy_o labour_n and_o thy_o patience_n and_o that_o thou_o can_v not_o bear_v with_o they_o that_o be_v evil_a etc._n etc._n nevertheless_o i_o have_v somewhat_o against_o thou_o that_o thou_o have_v leave_v thy_o first_o love_n foretell_v our_o saviour_n likewise_o in_o saint_n matthew_n foretell_v that_o this_o shall_v be_v one_o thing_n among_o many_o other_o worthy_o to_o
