if_o the_o lord_n do_v not_o myslyke_v thy_o sin_n why_o shall_v he_o raise_v such_o a_o report_n on_o thou_o why_o shall_v he_o save_v thy_o good_a name_n if_o he_o be_v not_o mind_v to_o show_v thou_o mercy_n and_o if_o he_o will_v not_o have_v thou_o with_o all_o thy_o hart_n to_o repent_v thou_o of_o all_o thy_o sin_n why_o do_v he_o whip_v thy_o naked_a conscience_n for_o sin_n therefore_o if_o by_o this_o love_a kindness_n we_o be_v not_o lead_v unto_o repentance_n very_o it_o wylbe_n a_o sin_n that_o shall_v not_o escape_v unpunished_a thus_o we_o have_v hear_v how_o a_o evyll_n name_n do_v arise_v of_o sin_n commit_v and_o what_o profit_n must_v be_v take_v hereof_o now_o let_v we_o further_o consider_v how_o a_o man_n must_v profit_v by_o a_o evyll_n name_n not_o when_o he_o have_v deserve_v it_o by_o some_o sin_n but_o when_o he_o have_v only_o fail_v in_o this_o that_o he_o have_v give_v occasion_n to_o be_v suspect_v of_o any_o evyll_n this_o occasion_n be_v of_o two_o sort_n first_o when_o either_o good_a duty_n be_v either_o altogether_o omit_v or_o do_v with_o a_o grudge_a mind_n or_o as_o it_o be_v of_o constraynt_n this_o report_n must_v teach_v thou_o that_o although_o thou_o be_v not_o so_o evyll_n as_o man_n will_v make_v thou_o yet_o thou_o be_v not_o so_o good_a as_o thou_o ought_v to_o be_v therefore_o by_o this_o thou_o must_v learn_v to_o be_v more_o careful_a of_o do_v good_a so_o to_o do_v it_o with_o great_a and_o better_a courage_n for_o the_o lord_n love_v a_o cheerful_a giver_n the_o second_o occasion_n be_v inward_a which_o although_o no_o man_n can_v find_v out_o yet_o the_o lord_n for_o thy_o good_a do_v cause_v i_o to_o speak_v evyll_n of_o thou_o for_o it_o this_o inward_a occasion_n be_v when_o thy_o hart_n have_v either_o give_v some_o full_a consent_n to_o do_v evyll_n or_o at_o least_o have_v much_o wander_v in_o think_v of_o it_o here_o the_o lord_n do_v take_v the_o time_n and_o suffer_v man_n to_o report_v of_o thou_o that_o thou_o have_v do_v that_o which_o in_o deene_n thou_o have_v not_o do_v yet_o in_o thy_o hart_n thou_o have_v take_v pleasure_n in_o it_o then_o the_o way_n to_o profit_v by_o this_o be_v to_o confess_v the_o goodness_n of_o the_o lord_n who_o will_v not_o have_v thou_o to_o fall_v into_o such_o sin_n as_o may_v deserve_v discredit_n for_o such_o be_v the_o nature_n of_o man_n that_o if_o a_o evyll_n think_v do_v long_o tarry_v in_o the_o mind_n it_o be_v hardly_o restrain_v before_o it_o come_v to_o the_o outward_a act_n again_o by_o this_o report_n thus_o raise_v on_o we_o we_o must_v take_v occasion_n to_o call_v back_o ourselves_o if_o we_o have_v consent_v to_o evyll_n and_o with_o grief_n to_o be_v sorrowful_a for_o it_o or_o if_o we_o have_v not_o as_o yet_o consent_v we_o must_v labour_v to_o repress_v the_o heat_n of_o our_o affection_n and_o quench_v they_o by_o the_o moisture_n of_o the_o word_n and_o thus_o much_o be_v sufficient_v for_o those_o report_n which_o arise_v of_o some_o just_a ground_n and_o occasion_n the_o last_o point_n to_o be_v handle_v in_o this_o whole_a case_n be_v to_o see_v what_o use_n must_v be_v make_v of_o those_o report_n which_o be_v altogether_o false_a and_o have_v neither_o ground_n nor_o good_a beginning_n for_o it_o may_v come_v to_o pass_v that_o when_o a_o man_n have_v avoid_v evyll_n and_o do_v good_a when_o he_o have_v shun_v the_o occasion_n of_o evyll_n and_o do_v all_o good_a with_o a_o cheerful_a hart_n yet_o he_o may_v be_v very_o ill_o report_v of_o and_o his_o good_a name_n hynder_v now_o if_o this_o do_v befall_v any_o man_n he_o must_v know_v that_o it_o be_v the_o lord_n his_o do_v and_o that_o the_o lord_n do_v it_o either_o to_o correct_v sin_n or_o else_o to_o prevent_v it_o the_o lord_n i_o say_v do_v by_o this_o mean_n sometime_o correct_v sin_n either_o in_o the_o same_o kind_n or_o in_o some_o other_o in_o the_o same_o kind_n he_o deal_v thus_o he_o suffer_v thou_o to_o be_v count_v a_o adulterer_n yet_o thou_o do_v now_o live_v chaste_o and_o hate_v that_o filthy_a sin_n but_o than_o he_o see_v that_o thou_o have_v either_o be_v a_o adulterer_n and_o have_v not_o repent_v at_o all_o or_o if_o thou_o have_v sudden_o repent_v yet_o now_o thou_o begin_v to_o fail_v and_o to_o cool_v in_o the_o hatred_n of_o that_o sin_n again_o if_o after_o examination_n thou_o find_v thyself_o clear_a in_o that_o sin_n yet_o know_v that_o the_o lord_n by_o that_o report_n do_v correct_v some_o sin_n quite_o contrary_a unto_o it_o as_o if_o thou_o shall_v be_v accuse_v because_o thou_o love_v not_o thy_o wife_n whereas_o in_o deed_n thou_o love_v she_o too_o well_o or_o else_o otherwise_o he_o cause_v thou_o to_o be_v count_v a_o adulterer_n that_o thou_o may_v be_v bring_v to_o see_v thy_o covetous_a hart_n and_o to_o say_v all_o in_o one_o word_n we_o shall_v never_o make_v true_a use_n of_o report_n until_o we_o have_v be_v bring_v to_o see_v and_o repent_v of_o some_o particular_a sin_n which_o either_o we_o see_v not_o besore_n or_o else_o have_v not_o thorough_o repent_v of_o furthermore_o it_o may_v come_v to_o pass_v that_o we_o have_v do_v all_o good_a duty_n avoid_v all_o evyll_n and_o examine_v our_o repentance_n even_o for_o particular_a sin_n yet_o shall_v we_o be_v evyll_n speak_v of_o among_o man_n here_o we_o must_v know_v that_o the_o lord_n by_o report_n do_v forewarn_v we_o of_o evyll_n to_o come_v we_o be_v report_v to_o be_v of_o the_o family_n of_o love_n hereby_o we_o be_v warn_v to_o take_v heed_n
