david_n awake_v up_o lute_n and_o harp_n awake_v up_o my_o glory_n i_o myself_o will_v awake_v right_a early_o if_o david_n dance_v before_o the_o ark_n which_o be_v but_o a_o testimony_n &_o a_o

what_o shall_v i_o more_o say_v sure_o this_o be_v all_o i_o can_v say_v if_o this_o love_n of_o christ_n &_o this_o true_a rejoice_v be_v plant_v in_o you_o you_o will_v carry_v less_o love_n to_o the_o world_n than_o you_o do_v neither_o the_o love_n of_o riches_n nor_o the_o love_n of_o honour_n nor_o the_o love_n of_o long_a life_n no_o wealth_n no_o friend_n no_o treasure_n shall_v wear_v it_o the_o gain_v of_o ten_o thousand_o world_n shall_v not_o be_v able_a to_o draw_v we_o from_o christ_n symeon_n be_v weary_a of_o the_o world_n when_o once_o he_o have_v find_v christ_n now_o let_v i_o die_v say_v he_o as_o if_o he_o shall_v say_v now_o have_v i_o have_v the_o fruition_n of_o the_o great_a blessing_n a_o great_a treasure_n than_o this_o the_o world_n can_v afford_v i_o for_o my_o eye_n have_v see_v my_o salvation_n and_o so_o have_v our_o eye_n see_v the_o same_o salvation_n we_o shall_v therefore_o love_v the_o world_n no_o more_o than_o simeon_n do_v i_o count_v all_o thing_n but_o loss_n say_v paul_n in_o respect_n 3._o philip._n 3._o of_o the_o excellent_a knowledge_n of_o my_o lord_n yea_o very_a d●ng_n etc._n etc._n and_o in_o the_o eight_o to_o the_o

nor_o thing_n to_o come_v nor_o any_o creature_n shall_v be_v able_a to_o separate_v i_o from_o the_o love_n of_o god_n which_o be_v in_o christ_n jesus_n our_o lord_n oh_o that_o now_o among_o we_o may_v be_v find_v some_o such_o like_a simeon_n or_o like_o paul_n or_o like_o david_n in_o his_o psalm_n and_o elsewhere_o ever_o send_v forth_o plentiful_a testimony_n of_o his_o rejoice_v in_o christ_n let_v we_o rejoice_v this_o rejoice_v be_v not_o a_o matter_n so_o soon_o practise_v as_o many_o conceive_v it_o to_o be_v every_o man_n will_v be_v ready_a to_o say_v we_o do_v rejoice_v and_o we_o be_v right_o glad_a of_o this_o day_n of_o the_o lord_n and_o as_o a_o sign_n of_o our_o rejoice_v we_o be_v willing_a to_o celebrate_v not_o this_o day_n only_o but_o even_o this_o whole_a feast_n in_o remembrance_n of_o our_o lord_n and_o to_o this_o purpose_n we_o deck_v our_o house_n and_o our_o street_n &_o our_o temple_n with_o bough_n like_v they_o that_o strew_v branch_n in_o the_o way_n where_o christ_n shall_v come_v and_o cry_v hosanna_n before_o he_o as_o he_o ride_v to_o lerusalem_fw-la and_o we_o with_o mouth_n and_o hart_n be_v ready_a to_o cry_v hosanna_n in_o

it_o be_v but_o a_o interim_n a_o start_a joy_n a_o temporary_a and_o a_o ●leeting_a joy_n of_o no_o continuance_n like_o a_o bubble_n on_o the_o water_n which_o die_v while_o it_o swell_v as_o long_o
