in_o his_o heart_n from_o commit_v that_o sin_n that_o he_o know_v to_o be_v pardon_v a_o pardon_a sinner_n know_v this_o that_o before_o a_o sin_n can_v be_v pardon_v it_o cost_v christ_n much_o and_o cost_v himself_o much_o it_o cost_v christ_n much_o blood_n to_o expiate_v the_o guilt_n of_o that_o sin_n it_o cost_v he_o many_o tear_n to_o destroy_v the_o power_n of_o that_o sin_n now_o that_o sin_n which_o he_o have_v smart_v for_o and_o christ_n have_v suffer_v for_o he_o will_v not_o easy_o commit_v psal_n 38._o when_o the_o psalmist_n say_v he_o will_v declare_v his_o iniquity_n then_o in_o psal_n 39_o he_o say_v i_o will_v take_v heed_n to_o my_o way_n as_o if_o he_o shall_v have_v say_v i_o be_o sorry_a for_o my_o sin_n and_o the_o lord_n have_v forgive_v i_o my_o iniquity_n but_o here_o be_v the_o result_n of_o it_o i_o will_v take_v heed_n to_o my_o way_n and_o of_o my_o sin_v another_o time_n there_o be_v no_o man_n that_o know_v his_o sin_n to_o be_v pardon_v that_o can_v easy_o run_v into_o the_o commission_n of_o it_o again_o it_o be_v a_o excellent_a expression_n in_o the_o book_n of_o job_n 10.14_o if_o i_o sin_n than_o thou_o mark_v i_o and_o

i_o sin_v as_o i_o be_o charge_v that_o i_o shall_v sin_v murmure_o and_o malicious_o against_o god_n and_o i_o will_v persist_v in_o my_o sin_n say_v job_n if_o i_o sin_v as_o they_o charge_v i_o what_o follow_v then_o god_n will_v not_o take_v away_o my_o iniquity_n he_o will_v not_o pardon_v my_o sin_n as_o job_n say_v of_o himself_o you_o may_v say_v of_o yourselves_o if_o i_o sin_v obstinate_o and_o pertinacious_o god_n will_v not_o pardon_v thou_o have_v be_v wicck_v and_o thou_o will_v be_v so_o thou_o have_v be_v profane_a and_o thou_o will_v be_v so_o this_o be_v inconsistent_a with_o a_o pardon_a state_n char._n 3_o a_o three_o character_n of_o a_o person_n who_o sin_n be_v forgive_v be_v this_o to_o have_v unfeigned_a sorrow_n and_o remorse_n of_o heart_n for_o the_o commission_n of_o sin_n sin_n forgive_v be_v steep_v in_o blood_n and_o soak_v in_o tear_n sorrow_n before_o pardon_n be_v servile_a and_o legal_a none_o can_v sorrow_n in_o a_o evangelicall_n manner_n but_o he_o who_o be_v bring_v into_o a_o pardon_a estate_n indeed_o there_o may_v be_v a_o force_a and_o a_o constrain_a sorrow_n which_o may_v come_v from_o the_o eye_n of_o unpardoned_a man_n there_o be_v this_o difference_n between_o the_o one_o and_o the_o other_o tear_n in_o a_o unpardoned_a sinner_n come_v from_o he_o like_o water_n in_o a_o still_o but_o tear_n in_o a_o pardon_a sinner_n come_v from_o he_o like_o water_n from_o the_o cloud_n water_n will_v drop_v from_o the_o still_o but_o it_o be_v force_v by_o keep_v close_o the_o still_o and_o by_o the_o heat_n of_o the_o fire_n the_o fire_n of_o hell_n may_v make_v a_o wicked_a man_n aghast_a but_o sorrow_n for_o sin_n in_o a_o pardon_a man_n be_v like_o water_n from_o the_o cloud_n that_o be_v not_o force_v but_o do_v natural_o drop_v down_o char._n 4_o a_o four_o character_n he_o in_o who_o sin_n be_v pardon_v be_v a_o man_n in_o who_o be_v no_o guile_n psal_n 32._o some_o do_v take_v guile_n in_o a_o particular_a sense_n other_o extend_v it_o more_o large_o as_o a_o comprehensive_a word_n equivalent_a to_o sincerity_n he_o be_v a_o man_n in_o who_o spirit_n be_v no_o guile_n a_o upright_a man_n thus_o much_o for_o the_o use_n of_o trial_n i_o now_o come_v to_o answer_v the_o objection_n object_n 1_o the_o first_o objection_n i_o think_v i_o hear_v a_o doubt_a christian_a say_v woe_n and_o alas_o what_o state_n be_o i_o in_o i_o have_v misgive_a thought_n that_o god_n have_v not_o pardon_v my_o iniquity_n because_o i_o can_v find_v that_o i_o have_v a_o heart_n to_o mourn_v for_o my_o iniquity_n and_o be_v it_o imaginable_a that_o christ_n shall_v shed_v blood_n for_o those_o sin_n which_o i_o never_o shed_v a_o tear_n for_o i_o can_v mourn_v for_o outward_a small_a cross_n but_o i_o can_v mourn_v for_o great_a inward_a corruption_n this_o make_v i_o doubt_v whether_o ever_o god_n have_v pardon_v my_o sin_n i_o shall_v resolve_v this_o objection_n in_o these_o four_o particular_n answ_n 1_o first_o of_o all_o consider_v that_o all_o man_n have_v not_o a_o like_a natural_a tenderness_n and_o softness_n of_o disposition_n many_o be_v of_o soft_a disposition_n be_v natural_o incline_v to_o tear_n this_o be_v not_o grace_n but_o the_o ingenuousnesse_n and_o softness_n of_o nature_n all_o can_v sorrow_n a_o like_a there_o may_v be_v grace_n in_o a_o man_n if_o his_o disposition_n be_v hard_a and_o rugged_a yet_o he_o can_v shed_v tear_n as_o those_o that_o have_v a_o tender_a disposition_n answ_n 2_o second_o you_o that_o make_v this_o objection_n know_v this_o that_o there_o may_v be_v great_a sorrow_n for_o sin_n in_o the_o heart_n when_o there_o be_v no_o tear_n for_o sin_n flow_v from_o the_o eye_n tear_n from_o the_o eye_n do_v ease_n and_o lighten_v the_o mind_n there_o may_v be_v the_o great_a sorrow_n when_o it_o can_v have_v no_o vent_n from_o the_o eye_n answ_n 3_o three_o you_o that_o make_v this_o objection_n know_v you_o must_v distinguish_v of_o a_o twofold_a sorrow_n for_o sin_n first_o there_o be_v a_o judicious_a sorrow_n and_o second_o a_o sensitive_a sorrow_n first_o there_o be_v a_o judicious_a sorrow_n and_o this_o consist_v in_o a_o apprehension_n in_o the_o judgement_n that_o sin_n be_v the_o great_a evil_n in_o the_o world_n and_o most_o to_o be_v lament_v brand_a oppose_a and_o resist_v divine_v do_v place_n more_o strength_n &_o height_n of_o grace_n in_o have_v a_o indignation_n stir_v up_o in_o the_o understanding_n against_o sin_n touch_v the_o evil_a of_o sin_n this_o be_v more_o than_o to_o shed_v a_o few_o tear_n for_o sin_n now_o if_o thou_o have_v a_o judicious_a sorrow_n to_o apprehend_v sin_n to_o be_v a_o great_a evil_n though_o it_o have_v not_o vent_v at_o the_o eye_n yet_o this_o be_v godly_a sorrow_n for_o sin_n a_o man_n that_o have_v the_o toothache_n he_o will_v cry_v out_o and_o complain_v more_o and_o shed_v more_o tear_n happy_o for_o the_o exquisite_a pain_n of_o the_o toothache_n than_o he_o will_v do_v in_o the_o burn_a fever_n yet_o ask_v he_o which_o he_o have_v rather_o have_v he_o will_v tell_v you_o the_o toothache_n the_o reason_n be_v because_o the_o pestilential_a fever_n be_v more_o hazard_n ous_a to_o life_n so_o have_v you_o rather_o lose_v your_o child_n then_o lose_v the_o sense_n of_o god_n favour_n which_o have_v you_o rather_o have_v affliction_n in_o the_o world_n or_o willing_o commit_v sin_n against_o god_n the_o judgement_n of_o a_o man_n if_o he_o be_v a_o regenerate_a man_n tell_v he_o he_o have_v rather_o a_o thousand_o time_n lose_v the_o dear_a relation_n than_o the_o manifestation_n of_o god_n love_n unto_o his_o soul_n he_o have_v rather_o endure_v the_o great_a affliction_n then_o to_o venture_v willing_o on_o the_o least_o sin_n answ_n 4_o four_o consider_v that_o god_n own_o people_n have_v oftentimes_o express_v more_o forrow_n for_o outward_a affliction_n than_o they_o have_v do_v for_o inward_a corruption_n there_o be_v great_a reason_n for_o it_o because_o thing_n of_o sense_n do_v more_o affect_v we_o than_o thing_n of_o faith_n do_v lay_v a_o man_n upon_o the_o rack_n and_o he_o shall_v more_o roar_v and_o cry_v then_o any_o man_n in_o the_o world_n shall_v do_v in_o the_o sense_n of_o sin_n because_o the_o pain_n be_v sensitive_a and_o it_o will_v have_v more_o sense_n of_o sorrow_n it_o be_v thus_o with_o good_a man_n in_o scripture_n we_o read_v much_o of_o david_n sorrow_n he_o have_v no_o rest_n in_o his_o bone_n by_o reason_n of_o his_o sin_n yet_o mark_v when_o david_n lose_v absalon_n o_o what_o a_o fit_a of_o sorrow_n be_v he_o in_o cry_v out_o o_o my_o son_n absalon_n my_o son_n my_o son_n absalon_n will_v god_n i_o have_v dye_v for_o thou_o o_o absalon_n my_o son_n my_o son_n we_o do_v not_o read_v of_o such_o cry_n o_o my_o soul_n my_o soul_n o_o what_o shall_v i_o do_v for_o thou_o my_o soul_n because_o the_o sorrow_n be_v sensitive_a the_o loss_n be_v sensitive_a now_o belove_v god_n people_n do_v express_v more_o sensitive_a sorrow_n for_o outward_a cross_n then_o for_o inward_a
