the_o cause_n of_o all_o this_o torment_n which_o christ_n the_o bless_a son_n of_o god_n endure_v and_o therefore_o affect_v the_o heart_n with_o godly_a sorrow_n for_o it_o yet_o do_v it_o not_o immediate_o break_v forth_o but_o the_o word_n &_o sacrament_n sometime_o inject_v certain_a scintillutae_fw-la or_o sparkle_n which_o lie_v hide_v sometime_o in_o the_o heart_n a_o good_a space_n even_o in_o the_o child_n of_o god_n and_o therefore_o the_o lord_n use_v another_o mean_n 3._o affliction_n which_o be_v his_o rod_n which_o though_o they_o be_v not_o able_a to_o convert_v a_o

have_v oft_o hear_v the_o word_n in_o the_o time_n of_o his_o good_a father_n the_o paragon_n of_o all_o the_o king_n of_o israel_n and_o judah_n but_o it_o little_o help_v he_o therefore_o god_n

this_o also_o be_v manifest_a in_o 2._o in_o 2._o king_n 20_o 2._o hezekiah_n and_o especial_o in_o the_o 16.29_o the_o act._n 16.29_o jailer_n when_o he_o see_v the_o earthquake_n and_o open_v of_o the_o prison_n door_n he_o cry_v out_o what_o shall_v i_o do_v etc._n etc._n so_o that_o i_o say_v not_o that_o affliction_n can_v convert_v a_o soul_n to_o god_n for_o than_o i_o think_v pharaoh_n must_v of_o necessity_n have_v be_v a_o convert_n who_o have_v ten_o fearful_a plague_n and_o yet_o drown_v and_o likely_a damn_a but_o i_o say_v sometime_o they_o make_v way_n for_o conversion_n by_o prepare_v the_o soul_n to_o attend_v and_o hearken_v to_o the_o word_n and_o also_o when_o man_n have_v hear_v the_o word_n and_o the_o immortal_a seed_n be_v sow_v there_o as_o a_o grain_n of_o
