A67687	The holy mourner. Or An earnest invitation to religious mourning in general with a large declaration of the divine comforts, and the blessed effects which attend the performance of it.

By Erasmus Warren, rector of Worlington in Suffolk.	Warren, Erasmus.	1698 (1698)	Wing W967; ESTC R218442	210,205	385

that_o so_o we_o may_v embrace_v it_o i_o hope_v that_o god_n notwithstanding_o the_o variety_n of_o our_o unhappy_a mistake_v involuntary_a prejudices_fw-la and_o unaffected_a error_n will_v hear_v

of_o my_o publish_v this_o book_n be_v the_o great_a need_n that_o there_o be_v of_o it_o for_o as_o our_o nature_n be_v prone_a to_o sin_n so_o number_n among_o we_o abound_v with_o it_o in_o their_o

god_n and_o endless_a destruction_n be_v the_o natural_a fruit_n and_o product_n of_o our_o sin_n especial_o where_o they_o be_v so_o rife_a and_o notorious_a to_o mourn_v for_o our_o sin_n must_v be_v as_o needful_a for_o we_o as_o it_o be_v to_o avert_v our_o impend_a misery_n and_o to_o prevent_v our_o eternal_a ruin_n and_o if_o to_o mourn_v for_o our_o sin_n be_v absolute_o needful_a upon_o these_o account_n it_o be_v every_o whit_n as_o needful_a that_o we_o be_v teach_v how_o to_o do_v it_o and_o in_o this_o discourse_n be_v that_o doctrine_n deliver_v i_o must_v here_o add_v this_o material_a caution_n let_v none_o in_o a_o state_n or_o course_n of_o sin_n of_o any_o know_v and_o deliberate_a sin_n apply_v themselves_o to_o observe_v the_o rule_n here_o lay_v down_o for_o to_o mourn_v for_o our_o own_o or_o other_o sin_n while_o we_o foolish_o persist_v in_o what_o we_o lament_v be_v but_o preposterous_o to_o trifle_v with_o god_n and_o under_o the_o specious_a colour_n of_o most_o serious_a duty_n to_o affront_v and_o provoke_v he_o with_o sad_a hypocrisy_n let_v all_o that_o take_v this_o treatise_n for_o their_o guide_n be_v real_o righteous_a or_o firm_o resolve_v forthwith_o to_o be_v so_o then_o i_o hope_v it_o will_v be_v helpful_a to_o they_o but_o lest_o any_o shall_v think_v they_o shall_v reap_v the_o least_o benefit_n by_o the_o strict_a
