let_v we_o see_v for_o what_o end_v the_o lord_n have_v appoint_v death_n for_o his_o own_o child_n one_o be_v the_o abolish_n of_o the_o relic_n of_o sin_n that_o even_o after_o regeneration_n stick_v in_o us._n by_o a_o wonderful_a wisdom_n god_n have_v ordain_v that_o during_o the_o dwell_n of_o the_o soul_n in_o the_o body_n there_o shall_v be_v also_o a_o dwell_n of_o sin_n in_o our_o mortal_a body_n partly_o to_o exercise_v we_o by_o resist_v the_o assault_n thereof_o partly_o to_o show_v we_o from_o how_o great_a a_o bondage_n christ_n have_v deliver_v we_o but_o by_o death_n he_o put_v a_o end_n to_o sin_n in_o respect_n of_o all_o practice_n and_o inhabitation_n through_o envy_n of_o the_o devil_n sin_n enter_v into_o the_o world_n and_o death_n by_o sin_n through_o the_o wisdom_n of_o god_n death_n put_v a_o end_n to_o sin_v and_o this_o be_v one_o end_n of_o this_o appointment_n of_o god_n a_o second_o be_v to_o put_v a_o end_n to_o the_o sensible_a misery_n of_o this_o life_n for_o as_o there_o continue_v a_o remanent_fw-la of_o the_o old_a adam_n even_o after_o grace_n so_o some_o portion_n of_o affliction_n still_o remain_v to_o god_n child_n not_o as_o papist_n teach_v for_o satisfaction_n but_o partly_o to_o give_v we_o a_o taste_n of_o those_o misery_n from_o which_o christ_n have_v free_v we_o partly_o to_o tame_v and_o subdue_v corruption_n partly_o to_o conform_v to_o the_o image_n of_o christ_n now_o death_n bring_v a_o end_n to_o all_o sensible_a evil_n and_o for_o this_o cause_n also_o have_v god_n provide_v death_n as_o a_o remedy_n lest_o too_o long_a endurance_n of_o evil_n shall_v overcome_v our_o patience_n three_o that_o the_o soul_n may_v be_v admit_v into_o the_o presence_n of_o god_n which_o make_v paul_n desire_v 1.23_o desire_v phil_n 1.23_o to_o be_v dissolve_v because_o he_o know_v his_o soul_n shall_v persent_o be_v admit_v into_o the_o presence_n of_o christ_n use_v 1_o now_o see_v god_n for_o these_o good_a end_n have_v ordain_v the_o death_n of_o his_o saint_n methinks_v it_o shall_v teach_v we_o contentment_n at_o least_o if_o not_o rejoice_v in_o the_o death_n of_o all_o those_o that_o die_v in_o the_o lord_n and_o sure_o if_o any_o man_n have_v know_v and_o feel_v the_o misery_n of_o subjection_n unto_o his_o sin_n the_o strong_a rebellion_n of_o corruption_n against_o grace_n i_o doubt_v not_o but_o he_o be_v thus_o mind_a that_o in_o that_o respect_n he_o will_v change_v condition_n with_o the_o mean_a of_o god_n saint_n that_o have_v dye_v in_o the_o lord_n and_o therefore_o well_o be_v it_o with_o the_o dead_a they_o rest_v from_o their_o labour_n their_o work_n follow_v they_o and_o which_o be_v not_o the_o least_o blessing_n they_o be_v free_v from_o the_o miserable_a bondage_n to_o corruption_n now_o as_o touch_v the_o wicked_a the_o reason_n of_o their_o die_a be_v because_o death_n be_v to_o they_o a_o part_n of_o the_o curse_n due_a to_o their_o sin_n and_o there_o must_v be_v a_o end_n put_v to_o their_o pleasure_n in_o sin_v &_o a_o bring_n of_o their_o soul_n to_o those_o unsufferable_a torment_n god_n have_v provide_v for_o impenitent_a sinner_n and_o therefore_o i_o wonder_v not_o use_v use_v if_o as_o the_o wise_a man_n speak_v the_o very_a remembrance_n of_o death_n be_v bitter_a unto_o they_o it_o be_v their_o judgement_n their_o curse_n the_o end_n of_o rejoice_v the_o very_a suburb_n and_o gate_n that_o lead_v into_o hell_n see_v we_o now_o the_o last_o thing_n i_o the_o consequent_a of_o death_n after_o that_o come_v the_o
