thou_o take_v for_o dust_n thou_o be_v and_o unto_o dust_n shall_v thou_o return_v reason_n 5_o five_o that_o by_o taste_v of_o bodily_a death_n they_o may_v feel_v god_n mercy_n the_o sweet_a in_o free_v of_o they_o from_o death_n eternal_a which_o they_o have_v likewise_o deserve_v and_o learn_v to_o set_v the_o more_o store_n by_o the_o riches_n of_o his_o mercy_n and_o accept_v it_o the_o

the_o death_n of_o the_o body_n and_o indeed_o let_v we_o consider_v well_o the_o pride_n of_o our_o own_o nature_n the_o false_a overween_a and_o vain_a selfe-trust_a wherewith_o we_o be_v puff_v up_o how_o stubborn_a we_o be_v against_o the_o lord_n and_o at_o how_o low_a a_o rate_n we_o prize_v his_o goodness_n and_o we_o shall_v find_v that_o to_o do_v we_o good_a and_o to_o bring_v we_o to_o life_n he_o must_v be_v fain_o to_o make_v we_o pass_v through_o the_o gate_n of_o death_n and_o why_o to_o keep_v we_o in_o awe_n and_o humble_v we_o to_o make_v we_o to_o know_v ourselves_o and_o how_o rich_a he_o be_v in_o mercy_n in_o his_o deal_n with_o we_o to_o the_o intent_n we_o may_v yield_v the_o more_o honour_n and_o reverence_n to_o our_o only_a wise_a immortal_a and_o good_a

what_o be_v due_a to_o my_o whole_a life_n for_o my_o manifold_a sin_n i_o have_v deserve_v to_o die_v not_o only_o the_o death_n of_o the_o body_n but_o the_o second_o death_n even_o the_o death_n of_o soul_n and_o body_n eternal_o thus_o you_o see_v how_o it_o be_v good_a for_o the_o saint_n to_o be_v keep_v in_o awe_n and_o teach_v humility_n by_o be_v appoint_v to_o die_v reason_n 6_o six_o that_o they_o may_v be_v make_v partaker_n of_o the_o glorious_a resurrection_n at_o the_o end_n of_o the_o world_n for_o to_o borrow_v a_o similitude_n from_o the_o apostle_n word_n 15.36_o 1_o
