desire_v long_o enough_o but_o how_o shall_v we_o be_v able_a to_o do_v it_o i_o will_v tell_v you_o in_o a_o word_n answ._n and_o so_o conclude_v first_o god_n you_o must_v pray_v for_o it_o it_o be_v a_o lovely_a suit_n when_o we_o come_v to_o the_o lord_n and_o tell_v he_o that_o we_o desire_v to_o love_v he_o that_o we_o will_v fain_o do_v it_o if_o we_o can_v prayer_n and_o beseech_v he_o not_o to_o deny_v we_o that_o request_n that_o we_o know_v be_v according_a to_o his_o will_n do_v you_o think_v that_o the_o lord_n will_v refuse_v you_o in_o that_o case_n especial_o if_o you_o beg_v it_o importunate_o at_o his_o hand_n for_o if_o you_o object_n and_o say_v object_n we_o have_v pray_v and_o have_v not_o obtain_v it_o answ._n know_v that_o to_o love_v the_o lord_n be_v a_o precious_a thing_n and_o therefore_o the_o apostle_n reckon_v it_o so_o you_o will_v say_v object_n how_o do_v this_o prayer_n do_v it_o i_o say_v that_o it_o do_v it_o partly_o by_o obtain_v at_o god_n hand_n answ._n way_n for_o when_o you_o cry_v earnest_o he_o can_v deny_v you_o but_o as_o he_o do_v with_o the_o lame_a and_o the_o blind_a when_o they_o be_v importunate_a he_o never_o neglect_v any_o but_o heal_v they_o when_o you_o cry_v to_o the_o lord_n and_o say_v i_o will_v fain_o love_v thou_o but_o i_o can_v will_v he_o not_o be_v as_o willing_a to_o heal_v thy_o soul_n to_o give_v thou_o leg_n to_o run_v after_o he_o and_o eye_n to_o see_v he_o as_o he_o be_v to_o heal_v the_o lame_a and_o the_o blind_a certain_o he_o will_v not_o deny_v thou_o but_o beside_o that_o prayer_n do_v it_o because_o it_o bring_v we_o to_o converse_v and_o to_o have_v communion_n with_o he_o by_o prayer_n we_o be_v familiar_a with_o god_n by_o that_o mean_n love_n grow_v between_o we_o as_o you_o know_v when_o you_o converse_v with_o man_n it_o be_v a_o mean_n to_o get_v love_n again_o prayer_n do_v it_o because_o when_o we_o be_v much_o in_o call_v upon_o god_n the_o lord_n delight_v to_o show_v himself_o to_o such_o a_o man_n yea_o at_o such_o a_o time_n for_o the_o most_o part_n as_o he_o show_v himself_o to_o christ_n when_o he_o be_v pray_v as_o he_o do_v to_o moses_n and_o to_o cornelius_n and_o other_o and_o again_o prayer_n it_o exercise_v this_o love_n it_o blow_v up_o the_o spark_n of_o this_o love_n and_o make_v a_o flame_n of_o it_o therefore_o much_o prayer_n beget_v much_o love_n if_o you_o will_v be_v abundant_a in_o love_n be_v fervent_a and_o frequent_a in_o this_o duty_n of_o prayer_n pray_v much_o and_o you_o shall_v find_v this_o effect_n of_o it_o it_o will_v beget_v love_n in_o you_o you_o will_v say_v prayer_n be_v a_o general_a mean_n for_o other_o thing_n object_n why_o do_v you_o put_v it_o as_o a_o peculiar_a mean_n to_o get_v love_n answ._n the_o reason_n be_v because_o love_v in_o a_o especial_a manner_n be_v a_o gift_n of_o the_o spirit_n a_o fruit_n of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n and_o it_o be_v true_a it_o must_v be_v a_o peculiar_a work_n of_o the_o spirit_n to_o beget_v love_n it_o be_v true_a faith_n come_v by_o hear_v and_o hear_v beget_v faith_n it_o be_v do_v likewise_o by_o the_o spirit_n but_o love_n be_v more_o peculiarly_a than_o other_o grace_n the_o gift_n of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n and_o therefore_o 2_o thess._n 4._o 4._o say_v the_o apostle_n you_o be_v teach_v of_o god_n to_o love_v one_o another_o that_o be_v it_o be_v such_o a_o thing_n as_o god_n teach_v or_o else_o our_o teach_n will_v never_o do_v it_o that_o which_o he_o say_v of_o love_n to_o the_o brethren_n we_o may_v say_v of_o the_o love_n of_o god_n the_o lord_n have_v put_v love_n into_o man_n man_n love_v many_o time_n and_o know_v not_o why_o many_o time_n he_o have_v reason_n that_o he_o shall_v love_v and_o yet_o he_o can_v because_o it_o be_v a_o peculiar_a gift_n of_o god_n that_o natural_a affection_n for_o a_o man_n to_o love_v his_o child_n all_o the_o world_n can_v do_v it_o all_o the_o argument_n in_o the_o world_n can_v persuade_v a_o man_n for_o if_o argument_n can_v do_v it_o we_o may_v persuade_v other_o to_o do_v so_o but_o none_o can_v love_v so_o as_o the_o father_n do_v his_o child_n and_o why_o but_o because_o the_o lord_n work_v that_o in_o man_n so_o the_o love_n of_o god_n be_v a_o peculiar_a work_n of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n none_o be_v able_a to_o love_n jesus_n but_o he_o in_o who_o the_o lord_n have_v wrought_v it_o in_o who_o the_o holy_a ghost_n have_v plant_v this_o affection_n therefore_o the_o way_n to_o get_v it_o be_v earnest_o to_o pray_v to_o acknowledge_v the_o power_n of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n to_o go_v to_o he_o and_o say_v lord_n i_o be_o not_o able_a to_o do_v it_o this_o acknowledgement_n of_o the_o power_n of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n be_v the_o way_n to_o prevail_v beside_o you_o know_v the_o power_n of_o god_n be_v so_o transcendent_a beyond_o the_o pitch_n of_o our_o nature_n that_o except_o the_o holy_a ghost_n work_v more_o than_o nature_n we_o shall_v never_o be_v bring_v together_o in_o agreeablenesse_n and_o suitableness_n we_o be_v no_o more_o able_a to_o love_v the_o lord_n than_o cold_a water_n be_v able_a to_o heat_n itself_o there_o must_v be_v somewhat_o to_o breed_v heat_n in_o that_o water_n so_o the_o holy_a ghost_n must_v breed_v that_o fire_n of_o love_n in_o we_o it_o must_v be_v kindle_v from_o heaven_n or_o else_o we_o shall_v never_o have_v it_o second_o another_o special_a mean_n to_o enable_v you_o to_o love_v the_o lord_n sin_n be_v to_o consider_v your_o own_o condition_n to_o consider_v your_o sin_n what_o you_o be_v what_o heart_n you_o have_v and_o what_o live_v you_o have_v lead_v object_n you_o will_v say_v how_o do_v this_o beget_v love_n answ._n yes_o this_o be_v a_o great_a mean_n mary_n love_v much_o because_o much_o be_v forgive_v she_o that_o be_v marry_o magdalen_n have_v great_a sense_n of_o her_o sin_n the_o lord_n have_v open_v her_o eye_n to_o see_v what_o a_o one_o she_o have_v be_v what_o sin_n she_o have_v commit_v and_o because_o she_o have_v that_o sense_n of_o her_o sin_n her_o eye_n be_v open_a to_o see_v she_o own_o vileness_n thence_o it_o be_v say_v he_o she_o love_v much_o for_o when_o we_o be_v humble_a and_o poor_a in_o spirit_n when_o we_o be_v little_a in_o our_o own_o eye_n than_o the_o lord_n will_v come_v and_o show_v mercy_n on_o we_o when_o a_o man_n shall_v see_v his_o sin_n and_o shall_v think_v with_o himself_o i_o be_o worthy_a to_o be_v destroy_v i_o can_v expect_v nothing_o but_o death_n than_o the_o lord_n shall_v come_v sudden_o as_o it_o be_v and_o shall_v tell_v we_o you_o shall_v live_v and_o shall_v reconcile_v himself_o to_o we_o this_o will_v command_v love_n we_o shall_v never_o receive_v the_o gospel_n as_o to_o love_v christ_n till_o we_o come_v to_o poverty_n of_o spirit_n till_o we_o be_v thus_o humble_v as_o in_o the_o first_o of_o luke_n it_o be_v the_o speech_n of_o mary_n my_o soul_n do_v magnify_v the_o lord_n and_o why_o because_o he_o have_v respect_n to_o the_o poor_a estate_n of_o his_o handmaiden_n when_o she_o be_v little_a in_o she_o own_o eye_n and_o make_v no_o account_n of_o herself_o and_o think_v not_o herself_o worthy_a to_o be_v look_v after_o the_o lord_n come_v and_o take_v she_o and_o vouchsafe_v she_o such_o a_o honour_n as_o to_o cause_v his_o own_o son_n to_o be_v bear_v of_o she_o now_o she_o can_v not_o hold_v but_o that_o be_v it_o that_o inflame_v her_o heart_n with_o love_n to_o the_o lord_n my_o soul_n do_v magnify_v the_o lord_n because_o he_o have_v respect_n to_o the_o poor_a estate_n of_o his_o handmaid_n so_o we_o see_v in_o david_n you_o never_o find_v a_o great_a expression_n of_o love_n in_o david_n than_o at_o that_o time_n when_o he_o be_v most_o humble_v when_o the_o prophet_n come_v to_o he_o and_o tell_v he_o what_o the_o lord_n will_v do_v for_o he_o that_o he_o will_v build_v he_o and_o house_n david_n begin_v to_o consider_v what_o he_o be_v what_o be_v david_n say_v he_o what_o be_o i_o or_o what_o be_v my_o father_n house_n that_o be_v i_o be_o but_o a_o poor_a miserable_a man_n i_o be_o but_o thus_o bear_v what_o have_v i_o do_v that_o the_o lord_n shall_v respect_v i_o so_o far_o if_o david_n have_v not_o be_v so_o little_a and_o so_o vile_a in_o his_o own_o eye_n those_o great_a mercy_n have_v never_o so_o wrought_v on_o his_o heart_n and_o therefore_o i_o say_v the_o way_n to_o make_v we_o abundant_a in_o love_n be_v to_o consider_v our_o sin_n to_o be_v humble_v to_o consider_v what_o

in_o their_o place_n to_o every_o man_n to_o contend_v for_o the_o common_a faith_n and_o know_v this_o my_o brethren_n that_o their_o be_v certain_a opportunity_n which_o the_o lord_n give_v you_o and_o you_o must_v take_v heed_n of_o neglect_v they_o it_o may_v be_v to_o let_v a_o thing_n go_v some_o time_n it_o will_v never_o be_v recover_v again_o therefore_o look_v that_o you_o be_v diligent_a in_o it_o stir_v up_o yourselves_o to_o do_v it_o while_o there_o be_v occasion_n offer_v in_o other_o thing_n man_n be_v apt_a to_o be_v man_n of_o action_n they_o will_v have_v

to_o do_v but_o alas_o what_o poor_a and_o weak_a reward_n have_v you_o for_o that_o it_o may_v be_v a_o little_a vainglory_n it_o may_v be_v some_o applause_n from_o prince_n or_o people_n it_o may_v be_v some_o empty_a airy_a preferment_n to_o do_v the_o will_n of_o the_o lord_n the_o work_n he_o have_v give_v you_o to_o do_v it_o be_v no_o matter_n what_o it_o be_v for_o a_o servant_n must_v not_o choose_v his_o work_n i_o say_v whatsoever_o it_o be_v though_o in_o never_o so_o mean_a a_o thing_n the_o great_a excellency_n be_v to_o do_v his_o will_n that_o make_v we_o king_n and_o

it_o be_v this_o do_v of_o his_o will_n this_o action_n that_o put_v you_o into_o a_o high_a condition_n i_o see_v not_o that_o paul_n be_v ambitious_a of_o any_o thing_n but_o of_o this_o that_o he_o

when_o you_o read_v the_o story_n of_o moses_n that_o he_o be_v mighty_a in_o word_n and_o deed_n of_o david_n of_o the_o judge_n and_o the_o worthy_n of_o the_o church_n they_o shall_v be_v so_o many_o incentives_n to_o you_o to_o stir_v you_o up_o to_o be_v do_v in_o your_o place_n pray_v but_o this_o be_v not_o all_o that_o we_o will_v commend_v to_o you_o at_o this_o time_n to_o be_v man_n of_o action_n and_o to_o observe_v the_o opportunity_n but_o there_o be_v a_o other_o thing_n and_o that_o be_v this_o that_o likewise_o the_o season_n commend_v to_o you_o that_o be_v to_o fast_o and_o pray_v as_o in_o husbandry_n so_o in_o the_o church_n there_o be_v certain_a season_n of_o action_n and_o those_o season_n must_v not_o be_v omit_v mark_v what_o the_o course_n of_o the_o scripture_n be_v in_o every_o calamity_n in_o joel_n when_o there_o be_v a_o famine_n begin_v sanctify_v a_o fast_n say_v the_o lord_n call_v a_o solemn_a assembly_n when_o their_o be_v a_o plague_n

that_o the_o omission_n of_o opportunity_n be_v sin_n for_o you_o to_o neglect_v this_o duty_n do_v you_o not_o think_v the_o lord_n will_v require_v it_o it_o be_v true_a indeed_o it_o be_v a_o business_n that_o be_v not_o ordinary_a it_o be_v extraordinary_a but_o do_v not_o extraordinary_a time_n and_o occasion_n call_v for_o it_o again_o be_v it_o not_o evil_a in_o such_o extraordinary_a case_n to_o omit_v such_o a_o extraordinary_a duty_n as_o we_o find_v in_o scripture_n when_o the_o lord_n will_v call_v for_o fast_v and_o they_o do_v it_o not_o indeed_o to_o turn_v it_o to_o jollity_n and_o feast_n be_v another_o thing_n a_o sin_n of_o a_o great_a nature_n but_o now_o the_o very_a stand_v still_o and_o omit_v of_o this_o duty_n be_v disobedience_n to_o the_o lord_n and_o to_o be_v guilty_a of_o the_o judgement_n that_o be_v upon_o a_o people_n i_o say_v the_o stand_n still_o and_o not_o hasten_v to_o the_o gap_n what_o shall_v we_o say_v then_o of_o those_o that_o resist_v this_o course_n and_o thrust_v man_n out_o of_o the_o gap_n consider_v it_o therefore_o serious_o this_o be_v a_o special_a duty_n require_v the_o season_n look_v for_o it_o that_o we_o
