sleep_n and_o make_v they_o drowsy_a for_o when_o my_o heart_n in_o the_o begin_n of_o my_o call_n begin_v to_o yield_v towards_o the_o lord_n and_o to_o be_v somewhat_o waken_v then_o the_o pleasure_n of_o sin_n past_a the_o shame_n of_o reproach_n which_o i_o see_v to_o be_v utter_v of_o the_o world_n against_o the_o godly_a the_o baseness_n of_o the_o gospel_n the_o danger_n of_o trial_n in_o the_o profess_v of_o christ_n jesus_n the_o glitter_a and_o deceivable_a pleasure_n of_o this_o life_n the_o hold_v of_o friendship_n with_o the_o world_n and_o worldly_a friend_n but_o especial_o the_o manifold_a danger_n and_o intolerable_a weightiness_n of_o this_o high_a call_n of_o the_o preach_n of_o the_o word_n to_o deal_v with_o it_o pure_o and_o sincere_o as_o in_o the_o sight_n of_o god_n from_o god_n through_o christ_n these_o thing_n hold_v tack_n with_o i_o a_o long_a time_n and_o a_o thousand_o other_o thing_n amaze_v i_o so_o as_o i_o answer_v my_o call_n at_o the_o first_o but_o as_o one_o a_o stammed_a or_o in_o a_o sleep_n or_o dream_n let_v every_o man_n therefore_o among_o you_o in_o good_a earnest_n deal_v with_o his_o own_o heart_n for_o it_o be_v full_a of_o deceitfulness_n every_o move_n of_o the_o heart_n and_o hop_v for_o joy_n after_o christ_n be_v not_o a_o right_a move_n for_o so_o he_o that_o receive_v the_o seed_n with_o joy_n math._n 13.20_o may_v have_v be_v in_o christ_n who_o yet_o vannish_v again_o thou_o may_v think_v that_o thy_o heart_n be_v marvellous_a affection_a after_o christ_n and_o that_o thou_o ioye_v in_o he_o when_o as_o thy_o affection_n true_o try_v be_v altogether_o carnal_a and_o filthy_a yea_o many_a no_o doubt_n persuade_v themselves_o that_o they_o have_v christ_n sure_a in_o their_o heart_n that_o they_o be_v in_o his_o favour_n that_o they_o be_v even_o hug_v in_o his_o arm_n and_o that_o they_o shall_v be_v save_v by_o he_o as_o well_o as_o the_o best_a which_o yet_o never_o so_o much_o as_o true_o know_v christ_n nor_o taste_v of_o he_o and_o be_v further_a off_o from_o be_v save_v by_o he_o a_o man_n will_v think_v belove_v that_o there_o can_v not_o be_v any_o such_o deceitfulnsse_n in_o man_n heart_n that_o when_o they_o be_v most_o sure_a they_o shall_v be_v most_o deceive_v the_o reason_n be_v because_o they_o persuade_v themselves_o to_o be_v of_o christ_n if_o they_o do_v but_o speak_v of_o he_o though_o the_o fruit_n and_o effect_n of_o christ_n residence_n be_v not_o to_o be_v see_v in_o they_o for_o when_o christ_n true_o take_v possession_n of_o man_n &_o occupi_v the_o room_n of_o their_o heart_n there_o his_o death_n be_v strong_a to_o expel_v satan_n the_o world_n sin_n evil_a thought_n yea_o to_o destroy_v and_o pull_v down_o satan_n kingdom_n also_o his_o

that_o he_o be_v change_v and_o become_v a_o new_a creature_n his_o word_n look_n gesture_n and_o all_o his_o member_n bewray_v a_o holy_a and_o spiritual_a change_n which_o although_o it_o be_v not_o wrought_v all_o at_o once_o but_o by_o degree_n yet_o man_n must_v not_o loiter_v and_o flacke_v their_o pace_n to_o aspire_v to_o perfection_n i_o have_v mark_v by_o experience_n within_o these_o few_o year_n that_o many_o who_o the_o lord_n have_v call_v to_o the_o love_n of_o his_o gospel_n from_o their_o former_a evil_a and_o civil_a life_n that_o they_o have_v be_v very_o diligent_a and_o painful_a in_o hear_v the_o word_n at_o the_o first_o neglect_v their_o calling_n and_o trade_n yea_o more_o than_o be_v expedient_a sometime_o yet_o after_o a_o while_n when_o they_o have_v somewhat_o wade_v in_o the_o word_n that_o they_o have_v come_v to_o some_o knowledge_n or_o some_o other_o gift_n have_v again_o much_o neglect_v the_o word_n prayer_n and_o other_o holy_a exercise_n both_o in_o public_a and_o also_o in_o their_o private_a family_n and_o so_o again_o somewhat_o sleep_v in_o their_o pleasure_n and_o profit_n thus_o man_n sleep_v and_o be_v easy_o draw_v to_o it_o but_o let_v they_o take_v heed_n that_o their_o heart_n sleep_v not_o it_o stand_v christian_n in_o hand_n to_o look_v to_o themselves_o since_o they_o have_v so_o dangerous_a a_o nature_n and_o deceavable_a as_o also_o so_o hurtful_a enemy_n of_o satan_n and_o the_o world_n many_o a_o man_n and_o woman_n when_o god_n call_v they_o and_o their_o heart_n begin_v to_o aim_v after_o the_o lord_n and_o they_o be_v force_v to_o acknowledge_v the_o power_n of_o his_o word_n and_o to_o condemn_v and_o find_v fault_n with_o their_o corruption_n yet_o they_o sleep_v one_o defer_v of_o the_o lord_n with_o this_o excuse_n oh_o i_o have_v a_o trade_n and_o i_o must_v follow_v it_o i_o can_v find_v in_o my_o hart_n to_o hear_v the_o word_n and_o to_o do_v as_o other_o do_v but_o i_o must_v live_v and_o i_o please_v god_n as_o well_o say_v another_o in_o my_o trade_n etc._n etc._n as_o in_o go_v to_o sermon_n here_o be_v a_o sleep_n that_o fall_v upon_o man_n that_o they_o may_v not_o wake_v at_o the_o lord_n call_v and_o suit_n why_o god_n promise_v not_o to_o bless_v any_o man_n in_o his_o call_n though_o he_o prosper_v the_o contemner_n to_o their_o condemnation_n &_o sometime_o to_o make_v they_o inexcusable_a unless_o they_o be_v careful_a to_o obey_v his_o word_n and_o wil._n and_o it_o be_v a_o great_a work_n to_o worship_n god_n and_o to_o hear_v his_o word_n be_v a_o part_n of_o his_o worship_n then_o to_o labour_v in_o our_o trade_n i_o bound_v no_o man_n from_o follow_v his_o call_n but_o to_o be_v diligent_a in_o it_o yet_o so_o that_o the_o lord_n have_v his_o part_n at_o our_o hand_n and_o that_o we_o serve_v not_o our_o own_o turn_n and_o the_o world_n and_o so_o neglect_v the_o lord_n worship_n yea_o and_o our_o own_o salvation_n which_o be_v bring_v unto_o we_o by_o the_o preach_n of_o the_o gospel_n other_o there_o be_v who_o heart_n somewhat_o melt_v at_o the_o word_n prayer_n and_o good_a thing_n &_o will_v fain_o have_v part_n in_o they_o but_o either_o some_o several_a sin_n which_o they_o do_v not_o thorough_o set_v themselves_o against_o and_o use_v mean_n to_o mortify_v but_o they_o break_v forth_o at_o every_o occasion_n so_o as_o they_o be_v a_o sleep_n again_o and_o yet_o the_o heart_n may_v have_v some_o wake_n after_o christ_n these_o do_v hinder_v they_o &_o make_v their_o heart_n almost_o a_o sleep_n and_o faint_a unto_o any_o duty_n or_o else_o want_v the_o mean_n to_o stir_v they_o up_o &_o be_v of_o themselves_o lubbrish_n to_o seek_v the_o mean_n have_v their_o mind_n too_o much_o occupy_v in_o the_o world_n or_o else_o shame_v detain_v they_o or_o fear_v of_o law_n take_v hold_n of_o they_o &_o of_o the_o wicked_a spy_v they_o out_o etc._n etc._n they_o neglect_v all_o good_a mean_n that_o may_v do_v they_o good_a thus_o every_o man_n may_v complain_v and_o say_v i_o be_o asleep_a but_o few_o see_v the_o danger_n of_o their_o sleep_n and_o so_o labour_v to_o stir_v up_o themselves_o from_o sleep_n as_o the_o spouse_n do_v here_o but_o it_o be_v to_o be_v fear_v that_o many_o man_n be_v a_o sleep_n even_o in_o their_o heart_n which_o hope_v better_a of_o themselves_o and_o that_o be_v a_o dangerous_a sleep_n awake_v therefore_o true_o out_o of_o sleep_v and_o sin_v not_o let_v we_o therefore_o good_a christian_n in_o the_o love_n of_o christ_n jesus_n and_o of_o our_o own_o soul_n search_v and_o survey_v all_o the_o corner_n of_o our_o heart_n that_o there_o lie_v hide_v nothing_o in_o we_o that_o may_v hold_v we_o back_o from_o follow_v of_o christ_n yea_o let_v every_o one_o of_o we_o say_v here_o lord_n we_o be_v at_o hand_n to_o wait_v upon_o thou_o our_o soul_n &_o body_n do_v delight_n in_o the_o live_a god_n that_o we_o may_v thus_o shake_v of_o all_o sleepy_a drowsy_a &_o worldly_a care_n &_o affection_n and_o watch_v to_o wait_v upon_o the_o lord_n call_v that_o we_o may_v be_v ready_a willing_o at_o a_o beck_n to_o embrace_v he_o hearty_o in_o our_o soul_n which_o grace_n
