the_o soul_n be_v make_v fruitful_a by_o live_v with_o christ_n for_o it_o be_v alone_o the_o sweet_a &_o glorious_a discovery_n of_o christ_n that_o make_v a_o soul_n bring_v forth_o fruit_n suitable_a to_o christ_n five_o as_o in_o other_o marriage_n there_o be_v a_o kind_n of_o trans-acting_a of_o each_o other_o condition_n to_o each_o other_o the_o riches_n of_o the_o husband_n to_o the_o wife_n and_o the_o poverty_n of_o the_o wife_n to_o the_o husband_n so_o it_o be_v betwixt_o christ_n and_o a_o christian_a as_o you_o may_v see_v in_o the_o 2_o cor._n 5._o and_o last_o he_o that_o know_v no_o fin_n become_v sin_n for_o we_o that_o we_o may_v be_v make_v the_o righteousness_n of_o god_n in_o he_o whatsoever_o law_n sin_n or_o conscience_n have_v against_o a_o man_n be_v take_v away_o by_o christ_n he_o be_v one_o with_o christ_n and_o all_o that_o be_v in_o christ_n give_v forth_o by_o god_n through_o christ_n be_v make_v over_o to_o a_o christian_n make_v one_o with_o christ_n and_o be_v as_o real_o a_o christian_n as_o christ_n himself_o six_o as_o in_o other_o marriage_n there_o be_v a_o sympathize_v one_o with_o the_o other_o so_o in_o this_o christ_n sweet_o simpathise_n with_o his_o spouse_n and_o the_o spouse_n sweet_o simpathise_n which_o christ_n seven_o as_o in_o other_o matrimonial_a union_n so_o in_o this_o in_o their_o absence_n from_o each_o other_o where_o be_v much_o longing_n for_o each_o other_o and_o in_o the_o presence_n of_o each_o other_o much_o rejoice_v and_o delight_n in_o each_o other_o and_o so_o much_o of_o the_o second_o thing_n for_o the_o three_o where_o it_o transcend_v all_o other_o matrimonial_a contract_n in_o the_o world_n that_o it_o do_v in_o these_o particulars_n first_o in_o that_o the_o mutual_a consent_n of_o will_n flow_v from_o one_o and_o the_o same_o power_n it_o be_v not_o so_o in_o other_o matrimonial_a contract_n for_o though_o a_o man_n have_v a_o will_n to_o marry_v a_o virgin_n yet_o he_o have_v not_o a_o power_n to_o make_v her_o willing_a to_o consent_v to_o he_o but_o it_o be_v so_o with_o christ_n that_o that_o power_n of_o love_n that_o carry_v out_o christ_n to_o be_v willing_a to_o make_v himself_o one_o with_o we_o the_o same_o power_n make_v we_o willing_a to_o be_v one_o with_o he_o second_o in_o other_o manage_n mens_fw-la love_n be_v carry_v out_o to_o the_o party_n belove_v as_o be_v beautiful_a but_o it_o be_v not_o so_o with_o christ_n for_o christ_n do_v not_o match_n with_o we_o because_o we_o be_v beautiful_a but_o be_v deform_v to_o make_v we_o beautiful_a and_o this_o you_o may_v see_v in_o the_o 16._o of_o ezek._n 5_o 6_o 8._o where_o you_o may_v see_v the_o time_n of_o god_n love_n be_v when_o they_o be_v in_o their_o blood_n and_o god_n there_o enter_v into_o covenant_n with_o they_o not_o because_o they_o be_v beautiful_a but_o even_o when_o they_o be_v in_o their_o blood_n and_o this_o he_o do_v to_o make_v they_o beautiful_a as_o you_o may_v see_v ezek._n 16.14_o where_o god_n say_v i_o beautify_v you_o in_o my_o own_o beauty_n if_o a_o moses_n marry_v a_o aethiopian_a she_o be_v a_o aethiopian_a still_o but_o it_o be_v not_o so_o betwixt_o god_n and_o the_o soul_n 3._o in_o other_o marriage_n common_o man_n marry_v such_o that_o be_v suitable_a in_o portion_n but_o christ_n never_o mary_n such_o that_o be_v rich_a but_o be_v poor_a he_o marry_v they_o to_o make_v they_o rich_a and_o for_o that_o end_n christ_n become_v poor_a that_o we_o may_v be_v make_v rich_a four_o in_o other_o marriage_n infirmity_n in_o a_o wife_n or_o accusation_n against_o a_o wife_n do_v many_o time_n take_v off_o the_o love_n of_o a_o husband_n from_o the_o wife_n but_o it_o be_v never_o so_o with_o christ_n will_v the_o devil_n accuse_v job_n to_o the_o lord_n yet_o the_o lord_n be_v not_o change_v by_o it_o but_o declare_v the_o same_o approbation_n of_o job_n as_o before_o and_o so_o the_o spouse_n who_o have_v infirmity_n in_o she_o and_o she_o confess_v the_o same_o say_v she_o be_v black_a yet_o christ_n to_o the_o same_o chapter_n say_v she_o be_v fair_a and_o comely_a five_o that_o which_o be_v a_o just_a ground_n according_a to_o law_n to_o take_v off_o the_o love_n of_o a_o husband_n from_o his_o wife_n so_o that_o there_o be_v no_o acceptance_n to_o be_v find_v with_o a_o husband_n in_o the_o return_n of_o his_o wife_n it_o be_v not_o so_o betwixt_o god_n &_o the_o soul_n and_o this_o you_o may_v see_v at_o large_a in_o the_o three_o of_o jeremiah_n and_o the_o first_o verse_n six_o that_o which_o make_v a_o separation_n in_o part_n or_o whole_a betwixt_o a_o man_n and_o his_o wife_n neither_o in_o part_n nor_o whole_a can_v make_v a_o separation_n betwixt_o christ_n and_o a_o christian_n as_o poverty_n imprisonment_n and_o banishment_n may_v make_v a_o separation_n in_o part_n and_o death_n make_v a_o total_a separation_n but_o know_v this_o if_o the_o world_n make_v a_o christian_n poor_a or_o send_v he_o into_o prison_n or_o banishment_n all_o this_o can_v deprive_v they_o of_o sweet_a fellowship_n and_o communion_n with_o christ_n who_o have_v engage_v himself_o to_o be_v with_o they_o and_o to_o unfold_v himself_o to_o they_o not_o less_o but_o more_o at_o such_o time_n when_o jeremiah_n and_o paul_n be_v in_o prison_n when_o more_o enjoyment_n from_o god_n and_o unfoulding_n of_o god_n than_o then_o and_o then_o for_o death_n it_o be_v so_o far_o from_o separate_v we_o from_o god_n that_o then_o be_v the_o time_n we_o have_v a_o full_a enjoyment_n of_o god_n and_o herein_o i_o have_v discover_v wherein_o this_o matrimonial_a contract_n do_v transcend_v all_o other_o i_o shall_v draw_v a_o corolie_n from_o each_o of_o these_o particular_n but_o for_o brevity_n sake_n i_o will_v pass_v they_o over_o and_o make_v only_o a_o brief_a use_n or_o two_o of_o instruction_n from_o the_o whole_a conclusion_n and_o first_o to_o instruct_v we_o if_o this_o be_v so_o then_o let_v it_o teach_v we_o to_o look_v upon-christ_n as_o a_o husband_n and_o that_o we_o do_v when_o we_o do_v these_o thing_n first_o when_o we_o look_v upon_o he_o as_o none_o like_o he_o second_o when_o we_o look_v for_o all_o law_n and_o government_n from_o he_o it_o be_v not_o the_o vives_fw-la duty_n to_o make_v law_n but_o to_o obey_v law_n so_o it_o be_v not_o the_o church_n duty_n to_o make_v law_n for_o the_o worship_n of_o christ_n but_o to_o conform_v to_o such_o law_n for_o worship_n give_v forth_o by_o christ_n three_o we_o be_v say_v to_o look_v upon_o christ_n as_o a_o husband_n not_o only_a when_o we_o go_v on_o in_o our_o duty_n to_o conform_v to_o he_o but_o also_o when_o we_o lie_v all_o our_o poverty_n and_o debt_n upon_o he_o but_o it_o be_v here_o with_o christian_n as_o it_o be_v with_o some_o simple_a woman_n who_o out_o of_o a_o pretend_a humility_n though_o real_a pride_n instead_o of_o lay_v their_o debt_n upon_o their_o husband_n who_o have_v enough_o they_o pinch_v themselves_o to_o pay_v their_o debt_n from_o themselves_o so_o many_o christian_n when_o the_o law_n and_o conscience_n come_v to_o they_o with_o a_o writ_n they_o not_o know_v their_o freedom_n from_o they_o do_v not_o send_v they_o to_o christ_n and_o lay_v they_o upon_o christ_n but_o endeavour_v to_o answer_v such_o thing_n from_o their_o resolution_n against_o sin_n and_o from_o their_o conformity_n to_o christ_n and_o so_o set_v up_o their_o resolution_n and_o conformity_n as_o a_o christ_n four_o in_o look_v for_o all_o maintenance_n from_o he_o five_o in_o do_v all_o thing_n for_o the_o honour_n of_o he_o next_o use_n be_v of_o comfort_n to_o comfort_v all_o the_o people_n of_o god_n that_o they_o have_v such_o a_o husband_n provide_v for_o they_o which_o be_v god_n it_o be_v a_o comfort_n to_o they_o in_o these_o particulars_n first_o in_o that_o he_o be_v a_o husband_n that_o look_v for_o nothing_o in_o you_o to_o draw_v his_o love_n to_o you_o second_o no_o infirmity_n in_o you_o can_v draw_v his_o love_n from_o you_o three_o nothing_o that_o befall_v you_o can_v make_v a_o separation_n betwixt_o christ_n and_o you_o four_o he_o will_v call_v you_o to_o no_o duty_n but_o he_o will_v give_v you_o a_o power_n suitable_a to_o perform_v duty_n five_o you_o may_v be_v sure_o he_o be_v such_o a_o husband_n that_o will_v be_v so_o far_o from_o fail_v in_o his_o love_n that_o he_o will_v transcend_v all_o in_o love_n so_o much_o of_o this_o use_n and_o of_o this_o conclusion_n for_o these_o word_n the_o lamb_n wife_n which_o be_v a_o explication_n of_o the_o former_a to_o make_v the_o former_a title_n glorious_a thence_o you_o may_v observe_v this_o conclusion_n that_o title_n
