a_o book_n be_v in_o a_o man_n hand_n when_o he_o be_v drowsy_a it_o will_v fall_v out_o he_o can_v hold_v it_o fast_o so_o when_o a_o man_n heart_n be_v drowsy_a and_o secure_v it_o will_v let_v go_v comfort_n and_o any_o thing_n that_o god_n have_v bestow_v for_o the_o good_a of_o the_o soul_n therefore_o we_o ought_v to_o watch_v if_o we_o have_v any_o sweet_a disposition_n of_o heart_n to_o

the_o sabbath_n day_n to_o keep_v it_o holy_a exod._n 20._o 8_o so_o i_o may_v say_v remember_v prayer_n to_o keep_v it_o holy_a remember_v meditation_n to_o keep_v it_o holy_a remember_v all_o the_o duty_n of_o religion_n to_o keep_v they_o holy_a and_o perform_v they_o in_o a_o holy_a manner_n think_v of_o they_o before_o you_o go_v about_o the_o performance_n of_o they_o we_o can_v pray_v unless_o we_o watch_v unto_o prayer_n unless_o we_o be_v careful_a and_o have_v our_o eye_n in_o our_o head_n before_o we_o go_v about_o the_o duty_n in_o the_o morning_n as_o soon_o as_o we_o awake_v we_o shall_v think_v of_o prayer_n and_o when_o tempt_v to_o sin_n we_o shall_v think_v of_o prayer_n if_o i_o sin_n how_o can_v i_o pray_v unto_o god_n i_o have_v ever_o and_o anon_o need_v to_o pour_v out_o my_o prayer_n before_o god_n now_o if_o i_o commit_v these_o and_o these_o sin_n how_o can_v i_o look_v up_o to_o heaven_n when_o my_o conscience_n do_v reproach_v i_o for_o sin_n so_o when_o we_o hear_v the_o word_n of_o god_n look_v to_o thy_o foot_n when_o thou_o come_v into_o the_o house_n of_o god_n eccles_n 5._o 1._o that_o be_v before_o thou_o go_v into_o the_o house_n of_o god_n to_o hear_v the_o word_n of_o salvation_n see_v into_o thy_o own_o heart_n think_v who_o word_n it_o be_v thou_o hear_v and_o that_o thou_o go_v to_o hear_v the_o word_n that_o shall_v judge_v thou_o at_o the_o last_o day_n when_o thou_o come_v into_o the_o presence_n of_o god_n take_v heed_n lest_o thou_o hear_v as_o fool_n hear_v and_o take_v heed_n lest_o thou_o pray_v as_o fool_n pray_v and_o come_v to_o the_o sacrament_n as_o fool_n use_v to_o come_v we_o shall_v watch_v before_o the_o duty_n that_o all_o thing_n may_v be_v in_o a_o readiness_n before_o we_o come_v to_o the_o performance_n of_o it_o that_o we_o may_v prevent_v all_o thing_n that_o may_v hinder_v we_o &_o be_v fit_v with_o all_o thing_n that_o may_v help_v forward_o the_o duty_n that_o time_n place_n and_o all_o advantage_n may_v meet_v together_o for_o the_o better_a do_v of_o it_o then_o second_o we_o must_v watch_v in_o the_o duty_n as_o duty_n well_o as_o before_o the_o duty_n as_o the_o apostle_n speak_v concern_v prayer_n so_o i_o may_v say_v concern_v all_o other_o duty_n continue_v in_o prayer_n and_o watch_v therein_o with_o thanksgiving_n col._n 4._o 2._o as_o we_o be_v to_o watch_v before_o that_o we_o may_v have_v preparation_n so_o we_o must_v watch_v in_o the_o duty_n that_o we_o may_v right_o discharge_v it_o for_o though_o a_o man_n have_v be_v watchful_a before_o the_o duty_n and_o have_v be_v prepare_v in_o some_o measure_n and_o fit_v yet_o you_o be_v not_o without_o danger_n but_o when_o you_o be_v in_o prayer_n and_o when_o you_o be_v at_o the_o lord_n table_n or_o any_o other_o duty_n for_o all_o your_o former_a preparation_n if_o you_o be_v not_o watchful_a now_o you_o may_v fail_v in_o some_o kind_n or_o other_o and_o so_o mar_v the_o duty_n therefore_o we_o shall_v watch_v in_o the_o duty_n that_o our_o heart_n may_v be_v wake_v in_o it_o and_o our_o mind_n attentive_a upon_o it_o that_o our_o heart_n may_v be_v fix_v upon_o that_o we_o be_v about_o my_o heart_n be_v fix_v my_o heart_n be_v fix_v say_v the_o prophet_n david_n he_o be_v a_o joyful_a man_n he_o repeat_v it_o again_o and_o again_o as_o if_o a_o man_n shall_v be_v jocund_a and_o say_v i_o have_v get_v it_o i_o have_v get_v it_o we_o shall_v get_v heart_n fix_v upon_o the_o duty_n that_o so_o we_o may_v not_o have_v waver_v heart_n half_o off_o and_o half_a on_o the_o duty_n but_o that_o the_o whole_a man_n may_v be_v employ_v about_o it_o three_o we_o shall_v be_v watchful_a after_o the_o duty_n that_o we_o may_v not_o lose_v the_o benefit_n and_o reward_n of_o the_o duty_n lest_o the_o subtlety_n of_o satan_n and_o the_o wile_n of_o our_o own_o heart_n do_v rob_v we_o of_o the_o fruit_n of_o it_o though_o a_o man_n hear_v very_o attentive_o and_o pray_v and_o perform_v all_o other_o duty_n very_o enlarged_o yet_o when_o he_o have_v do_v all_o he_o may_v lose_v the_o comfort_n and_o reward_n of_o the_o duty_n therefore_o when_o we_o hear_v the_o word_n we_o shall_v watch_v over_o our_o heart_n that_o the_o soul_n of_o the_o air_n may_v not_o pluck_v it_o out_o again_o that_o if_o we_o have_v any_o quicken_a we_o may_v not_o lose_v it_o again_o if_o we_o have_v hear_v any_o thing_n that_o have_v helpeld_v we_o forward_o in_o grace_n we_o shall_v take_v heed_n that_o we_o lose_v not_o the_o ground_n again_o as_o the_o publican_n as_o soon_o as_o he_o have_v pray_v to_o god_n and_o perform_v a_o ordinance_n aright_o how_o careful_a be_v he_o not_o to_o lose_v the_o benefit_n thereof_o he_o go_v to_o the_o temple_n to_o pray_v and_o he_o be_v

and_o feel_o and_o penitent_o he_o do_v pray_v stand_v a_o far_o off_o and_o smite_v upon_o his_o breast_n and_o not_o lift_v up_o his_o eye_n to_o heaven_n bewail_v the_o hardness_n of_o his_o own_o
