be_v but_o now_o here_o it_o be_v impossible_a for_o a_o wicked_a man_n to_o fear_v more_o than_o he_o shall_v certain_o suffer_v let_v his_o imagination_n be_v hang_v round_o with_o all_o the_o

thy_o wrath_n to_o be_v so_o it_o be_v and_o much_o more_o let_v the_o heart_n of_o man_n stretch_v itself_o to_o the_o utmost_a bound_n of_o imagination_n and_o call_v into_o its_o aid_n all_o the_o

and_o devour_v they_o but_o alas_o this_o be_v nothing_o to_o what_o they_o shall_v hereafter_o feel_v god_n now_o do_v but_o open_a to_o they_o a_o small_a chink_n and_o crevice_n into_o hell_n he_o now_o do_v but_o suffer_v a_o few_o small_a drop_n of_o his_o wrath_n to_o fall_v upon_o they_o and_o if_o this_o be_v so_o sore_a and_o smart_n that_o their_o fear_n can_v never_o think_v of_o any_o thing_n more_o dreadful_a than_o what_o they_o now_o suffer_v o_o what_o will_v it_o be_v then_o when_o he_o shall_v overwhelm_v they_o with_o a_o whole_a deluge_n of_o his_o wrath_n and_o cause_v all_o his_o wave_n to_o go_v over_o they_o fear_v he_o say_v our_o saviour_n who_o be_v able_a to_o destroy_v both_o soul_n and_o body_n in_o hell_n yea_o i_o say_v unto_o you_o 10.28_o mat._n 10.28_o

the_o dreadfulness_n of_o it_o the_o acute_a torment_n that_o the_o body_n be_v capable_a of_o be_v but_o dull_a and_o flat_a thing_n in_o comparison_n of_o what_o the_o soul_n can_v feel_v now_o when_o god_n shall_v immediate_o with_o his_o own_o hand_n lash_v the_o soul_n that_o refine_a and_o spiritual_a part_n of_o man_n the_o principle_n of_o all_o life_n and_o sensation_n and_o shall_v

the_o burn_a wrath_n of_o god_n to_o fall_v upon_o the_o soul_n we_o find_v that_o spirit_n which_o be_v infinite_o inferior_a unto_o god_n can_v make_v strange_a impression_n upon_o the_o soul_n of_o
