and_o cautious_a in_o all_o their_o erterprise_n this_o be_v that_o which_o the_o apostle_n exhort_v unto_o eph._n 5._o 15._o see_v then_o that_o you_o walk_v circumspect_o not_o as_o fool_n but_o as_o wise_a and_o according_a to_o this_o be_v that_o advice_n of_o the_o poet_n quicquid_fw-la agis_fw-la prudenter_fw-la agas_fw-la et_fw-la respicio_fw-la finem_fw-la what_o ever_o thou_o do_v

circumspection_n will_v appear_v to_o be_v most_o necessary_a if_o we_o consider_v the_o reason_n follow_v 1._o reason_n first_o we_o shall_v be_v circumspect_a and_o wary_a in_o all_o our_o undertaking_n because_o rash_a and_o precipitate_v action_n seldom_o or_o never_o produce_v good_a effect_n this_o you_o may_v see_v verify_v in_o all_o manner_n of_o action_n whether_o natural_a moral_a civil_a or_o spiritual_a first_o in_o natural_a action_n as_o in_o the_o motion_n of_o nature_n which_o the_o philosopher_n hold_v be_v flow_v in_o the_o beginning_n swift_a in_o the_o

violent_a be_v permanent_a second_o moral_a action_n wherein_o consist_v the_o exercise_n of_o virtue_n seldom_o or_o never_o come_v to_o good_a perfection_n unless_o advice_n and_o deliberation_n go_v before_o hence_o grow_v that_o maxim_n deliberandum_fw-la est_fw-la diu_fw-la quod_fw-la statuendum_fw-la est_fw-la semel_fw-la we_o must_v deliberate_v or_o forethink_v of_o that_o often_o which_o we_o be_v to_o do_v but_o once_o three_o civil_a action_n whether_o concerning_o church_n or_o commonwealth_n seldom_o succeed_v well_o unless_o advice_n and_o deliberation_n precede_v they_o and_o indeed_o there_o be_v no_o orator_n in_o the_o senate-house_n nor_o lawyer_n in_o the_o common-plea_n nor_o preacher_n in_o the_o pulpit_n if_o he_o have_v any_o modesty_n which_o dare_v show_v

unless_o they_o be_v undertake_v with_o deliberation_n due_a advice_n and_o circumspection_n unless_o we_o consider_v the_o matter_n which_o we_o do_v the_o manner_n how_o we_o do_v it_o the_o mean_n whereby_o we_o do_v it_o and_o the_o end_n wherefore_o we_o do_v it_o which_o be_v or_o at_o least_o ought_v to_o be_v for_o the_o glory_n of_o god_n according_a to_o that_o of_o st._n paul_n whether_o you_o eat_v or_o drink_v or_o whatsoever_o else_o you_o do_v let_v all_o be_v do_v to_o the_o praise_n and_o glory_n of_o god_n 1._o cor._n 10._o 31._o thus_o you_o see_v that_o no_o manner_n of_o action_n can_v come_v to_o good_a perfection_n except_o advice_n and_o deliberation_n go_v before_o which_o if_o there_o be_v no_o other_o reason_n be_v enough_o to_o persuade_v every_o prudent_a man_n to_o take_v heed_n to_o himself_o as_o moses_n in_o my_o text_n exhort_v rea._n 2._o but_o second_o we_o have_v need_n take_v heed_n to_o ourselves_o and_o be_v circumspect_a in_o
