shall_v be_v in_o if_o christ_n have_v not_o deliver_v thou_o but_o let_v not_o thy_o assurance_n be_v weaken_v for_o you_o must_v know_v there_o be_v but_o two_o main_a end_n of_o humiliation_n which_o if_o they_o be_v attain_v in_o thou_o thou_o need_v not_o call_v in_o question_n thy_o estate_n now_o first_o
humiliation_n it_o serve_v to_o make_v thou_o willing_a to_o match_v with_o christ_n we_o be_v christ_n spokesman_n and_o woo_v you_o every_o sabbath_n day_n but_o we_o find_v all_o the_o world_n like_o they_o christ._n who_o think_v themselves_o beautiful_a and_o rich_a and_o that_o they_o have_v match_n enough_o who_o though_o they_o be_v content_v to_o have_v christ_n for_o their_o husband_n in_o heaven_n yet_o not_o on_o the_o earth_n with_o all_o those_o cross_n they_o must_v take_v he_o with_o now_o humiliation_n come_v and_o make_v man_n willing_a when_o a_o man_n come_v to_o see_v and_o say_v i_o have_v no_o such_o thing_n in_o i_o as_o i_o imagine_v no_o riches_n etc._n etc._n but_o i_o be_o in_o debt_n and_o shall_v be_v arrest_v and_o lay_v in_o prison_n and_o my_o life_n must_v go_v for_o it_o unless_o christ_n will_v marry_v i_o in_o that_o a_o man_n see_v he_o shall_v be_v keep_v from_o all_o arrest_n by_o he_o this_o make_v a_o man_n willing_a to_o match_v with_o christ_n yea_o glad_a though_o he_o have_v many_o cross_n follow_v in_o this_o life_n upon_o the_o marriage_n now_o therefore_o if_o thou_o find_v this_o wrought_v that_o thou_o can_v sincere_o say_v i_o be_o willing_a to_o take_v christ_n and_o to_o be_v subject_a to_o he_o in_o all_o thing_n to_o follow_v he_o in_o all_o condition_n to_o give_v a_o full_a consent_n to_o take_v he_o as_o i_o find_v that_o he_o in_o the_o word_n have_v a_o full_a consent_n to_o take_v i_o then_o certain_o thou_o be_v humble_v else_o not_o if_o thou_o have_v take_v he_o only_o in_o a_o fit_a and_o not_o out_o of_o judgement_n thou_o will_v have_v repent_v thou_o ere_o now_o the_o second_o end_n which_o humiliation_n serve_v to_o be_v for_o sanctification_n as_o the_o other_o help_v he_o in_o his_o justification_n sanctification_n that_o every_o unruly_a lust_n may_v be_v break_v and_o mortify_v in_o thou_o that_o thou_o may_v fear_v to_o offend_v and_o be_v pliable_a to_o the_o lord_n in_o every_o thing_n whereas_o another_o that_o be_v unbroken_a quarrel_n with_o every_o thing_n think_v his_o work_n too_o much_o and_o his_o wage_n too_o little_a and_o know_v not_o why_o he_o shall_v go_v a_o contrary_a way_n to_o the_o world_n but_o a_o humble_a man_n simile_n will_v do_v all_o this_o cheerful_o like_o a_o break_a horse_n that_o turn_v at_o every_o check_n of_o the_o bridle_n when_o another_o cast_v his_o rider_n do_v thou_o find_v that_o thou_o tremble_v at_o the_o word_n and_o fear_v sin_n and_o dare_v not_o venture_v in_o it_o and_o so_o for_o duty_n thou_o dare_v not_o neglect_v they_o and_o this_o thou_o have_v experience_n of_o in_o the_o whole_a course_n of_o thy_o life_n then_o sure_o this_o work_n of_o humiliation_n have_v be_v in_o thy_o heart_n though_o thou_o see_v not_o the_o fire_n yet_o if_o thou_o find_v the_o heat_n it_o have_v be_v there_o for_o these_o be_v the_o effect_n of_o it_o and_o as_o i_o speak_v this_o for_o the_o comfort_n of_o those_o that_o have_v not_o feel_v such_o violent_a sorrow_n so_o let_v i_o on_o the_o contrary_n say_v to_o other_o who_o it_o may_v be_v have_v have_v such_o fit_n of_o sorrow_n yet_o if_o thou_o find_v a_o unwillingnes_n to_o submit_v thus_o to_o christ_n find_v thy_o neck_n stiff_a to_o the_o lord_n yoke_n and_o such_o a_o unbrokennesse_n in_o thou_o that_o thou_o can_v not_o live_v without_o satisfy_v this_o or_o that_o lust_n but_o can_v sin_v and_o bear_v it_o out_o well_o enough_o let_v thy_o sorrow_n have_v be_v never_o so_o great_a and_o now_o they_o be_v past_a and_o go_v and_o be_v not_o right_a let_v man_n therefore_o examine_v themselves_o by_o the_o effect_n for_o man_n be_v deceive_v on_o both_o side_n and_o then_o 1_o use_v be_v for_o exhortation_n to_o stir_v

you_o that_o be_v already_o humble_v and_o have_v obtain_v humble_v the_o assurance_n of_o the_o forgiveness_n of_o your_o sin_n you_o must_v be_v humble_v more_o for_o if_o the_o lord_n suspend_v his_o promise_n at_o this_o than_o the_o duty_n be_v to_o be_v do_v daily_o when_o god_n require_v a_o duty_n of_o sanctification_n and_o his_o promise_n be_v make_v only_o to_o such_o there_o can_v be_v none_o excuse_v there_o may_v be_v a_o let_v in_o preparative_n humiliation_n a_o man_n may_v be_v swallow_v of_o two_o humiliation_n much_o sorrow_n but_o not_o in_o this_o which_o be_v a_o

and_o love_n be_v the_o great_a radical_a grace_n all_o elseare_n but_o branch_n spring_v out_o of_o they_o now_o they_o be_v strengthen_v by_o this_o humiliation_n and_o grace_n the_o more_o they_o

man_n lay_v hold_v on_o christ_n and_o prize_v he_o the_o more_o he_o go_v on_o to_o apprehend_v his_o sin_n and_o be_v empty_v of_o himself_o and_o though_o a_o man_n take_v christ_n true_o at_o his_o first_o conversion_n yet_o there_o be_v degree_n of_o prize_v he_o when_o a_o husband_n take_v a_o wife_n though_o at_o their_o feast_n marriage_n there_o be_v such_o love_n between_o they_o as_o they_o will_v have_v choose_v each_o other_o before_o any_o other_o in_o the_o world_n yet_o so_o as_o this_o their_o love_n may_v admit_v degree_n after_o marriage_n they_o may_v see_v more_o

as_o he_o can_v you_o shall_v not_o need_v to_o bid_v he_o and_o to_o this_o end_n it_o be_v that_o christian_n be_v still_o teach_v more_o and_o more_o by_o the_o spirit_n to_o see_v the_o vanity_n of_o the_o creature_n the_o vileness_n of_o their_o nature_n and_o they_o be_v lead_v through_o this_o wilderness_n to_o humble_v they_o that_o so_o christ_n may_v have_v the_o high_a place_n in_o
