the_o nation_n begin_v with_o peril_n in_o the_o deep_a and_o again_o twice_o repeat_v it_o in_o the_o same_o verse_n in_o peril_n of_o water_n in_o peril_n in_o the_o sea_n as_o if_o those_o alone_o be_v the_o great_a affliction_n he_o will_v most_o glory_n in_o and_o the_o philosopher_n account_v man_n at_o sea_n to_o be_v but_o a_o kind_n of_o borderer_n between_o the_o live_n and_o the_o

and_o mighty_a work_n of_o the_o creation_n and_o the_o extraordinary_a wonder_n of_o god_n providence_n be_v so_o apparent_a to_o these_o man_n eye_n that_o they_o can_v but_o consider_v they_o and_o take_v especial_a notice_n of_o the_o danger_n they_o pass_v through_o and_o however_o custom_n may_v in_o time_n wear_v off_o all_o sense_n of_o danger_n yet_o can_v it_o never_o lessen_v it_o as_o will_v appear_v by_o consider_v these_o three_o thing_n 1._o the_o suddenness_n of_o those_o calamity_n which_o may_v happen_v to_o seafaring_a man_n 2._o the_o number_n of_o they_o and_o 3._o their_o

which_o lie_v in_o wait_n for_o mariner_n a_o man_n may_v linger_v out_o his_o day_n under_o a_o sore_a disease_n and_o though_o some_o fierce_a kind_n may_v soon_o seize_v upon_o his_o vital_n yet_o rare_o be_v death_n this_o way_n so_o swift_a of_o foot_n as_o not_o to_o give_v some_o warn_v to_o the_o patient_n and_o by_o alarm_v his_o conscience_n make_v he_o so_o to_o consider_v his_o

and_o diligent_o to_o watch_v because_o you_o know_v not_o in_o what_o hour_n this_o sad_a calamity_n may_v fall_v upon_o you_o watch_z therefore_o 44._o for_o you_o know_v not_o what_o hour_n the_o lord_n do_v come_v but_o know_v this_o that_o if_o the_o good_a man_n of_o the_o house_n have_v know_v in_o what_o watch_n the_o thief_n will_v come_v he_o will_v have_v watch_v and_o will_v not_o

the_o danger_n they_o become_v yet_o more_o terrible_a and_o beyond_o my_o ability_n to_o recount_v the_o danger_n of_o the_o water_n beneath_o the_o fall_n of_o spout_n from_o above_o the_o rock_n and_o quicksand_n the_o tempestuous_a wind_n and_o hurricane_n without_o any_o small_a leak_n within_o one_o spark_n in_o the_o gun-room_n nay_o one_o wry_a step_n be_v sufficient_a to_o dispatch_v a_o man_n and_o send_v he_o quick_a into_o another_o world_n and_o can_v any_o one_o in_o his_o right_a sense_n reflect_v upon_o these_o thing_n and_o yet_o neglect_v the_o work_n out_o his_o salvation_n with_o fear_n and_o tremble_a 12._o consider_v but_o in_o what_o a_o amazement_n must_v that_o wretched_a man_n be_v who_o pass_v immediate_o with_o oath_n and_o execration_n in_o his_o

then_o to_o call_v upon_o his_o god_n when_o he_o can_v expect_v no_o other_o answer_n than_o i_o know_v you_o not_o 41._o depart_v from_o i_o you_o wicked_a into_o everlasting_a fire_n prepare_v for_o the_o devil_n and_o his_o angel_n again_o for_o the_o frequency_n of_o the_o danger_n they_o be_v yet_o more_o formidable_a because_o this_o will_v certain_o convince_v you_o that_o these_o sad_a affliction_n be_v not_o only_o possible_a but_o common_a unto_o man_n and_o that_o for_o aught_o any_o one_o know_v to_o the_o contrary_a his_o own_o turn_n be_v next_o now_o that_o the_o danger_n which_o seafaring_a man_n be_v expose_v to_o be_v frequent_a and_o common_a and_o do_v ordinary_o happen_v unto_o they_o there_o need_v no_o other_o argument_n to_o convince_v you_o than_o your_o own_o experience_n of_o they_o the_o many_o rescue_v you_o have_v have_v out_o of_o the_o very_a jaw_n of_o death_n those_o many_o and_o even_o miraculous_a deliverance_n which_o you_o can_v but_o be_v sensible_a of_o and_o which_o have_v happen_v to_o you_o even_o then_o when_o all_o hope_n of_o escape_n seem_v to_o be_v quite_o take_v away_o i_o shall_v not_o have_v mention_v this_o particular_a but_o that_o i_o be_o afraid_a it_o be_v a_o opinion_n too_o common_a among_o you_o that_o since_o the_o great_a improvement_n of_o navigation_n and_o the_o daily_a advancement_n of_o knowledge_n in_o sea-affair_n the_o ocean_n be_v now_o render_v so_o passable_a and_o secure_a that_o the_o accident_n seem_v not_o to_o exceed_v those_o which_o man_n in_o general_n be_v expose_v to_o and_o yet_o out_o of_o your_o own_o mouth_n may_v you_o be_v convince_v since_o it_o be_v hardly_o possible_o to_o find_v one_o seafaring_a man_n who_o be_v not_o able_a to_o recount_v as_o many_o danger_n as_o voyage_n and_o do_v not_o after_o a_o long_a and_o perilous_a absence_n from_o home_n esteem_v it_o almost_o a_o resurrection_n from_o the_o dead_a to_o recover_v his_o native_a shore_n again_o now_o if_o these_o thing_n be_v but_o once_o thorough_o consider_v and_o lay_v to_o heart_n one_o will_v think_v it_o almost_o impossible_a there_o shall_v be_v any_o such_o monster_n in_o the_o world_n as_o a_o loose_a and_o irreligious_a seaman_n and_o that_o these_o be_v they_o of_o all_o man_n who_o live_v sober_o righteous_o and_o godly_a in_o this_o present_a world_n who_o pray_v continual_o navigare_fw-la and_o call_v upon_o their_o god_n and_o be_v least_o obnoxious_a to_o inconsideration_n and_o stupidity_n that_o these_o be_v they_o who_o live_v in_o a_o perpetual_a sense_n of_o the_o protect_a arm_n of_o god_n and_o a_o continual_a dread_n of_o his_o majesty_n in_o who_o after_o a_o extraordinary_a manner_n they_o live_v and_o move_v and_o have_v their_o be_v and_o that_o if_o this_o sort_n of_o warfare_n can_v persuade_v man_n neither_o will_v they_o be_v persuade_v though_o one_o shall_v rise_v to_o they_o from_o the_o dead_a there_o be_v nothing_o in_o this_o world_n which_o in_o its_o own_o nature_n can_v tend_v more_o to_o the_o awaken_n of_o man_n mind_n and_o bring_v they_o over_o into_o the_o way_n of_o religion_n and_o virtue_n than_o that_o perilous_a state_n they_o live_v in_o through_o the_o suddenness_n the_o number_n and_o frequency_n of_o those_o calamity_n which_o be_v always_o incident_a to_o seafaring_a man_n i_o come_v therefore_o to_o show_v ii_o what_o great_a encouragement_n you_o have_v to_o call_v upon_o god_n from_o the_o consideration_n of_o his_o especial_a providence_n over_o sea-affair_n if_o so_o be_v that_o god_n will_v think_v upon_o we_o that_o we_o perish_v not_o and_o whoever_o consider_v how_o full_a and_o express_v the_o scripture_n be_v in_o the_o declaration_n of_o this_o truth_n he_o will_v at_o the_o same_o time_n be_v incline_v to_o think_v that_o though_o god_n providence_n and_o his_o mercy_n be_v over_o all_o his_o work_n yet_o the_o great_a stroke_n of_o his_o divine_a arm_n be_v make_v most_o manifest_a in_o the_o deep_a for_o he_o it_o be_v who_o command_v and_o raise_v the_o stormy_a wind_n 25._o which_o lift_v up_o the_o wave_n of_o the_o sea_n 7._o he_o gather_v
