be_v towards_o he_o albeit_o for_o the_o present_a we_o feel_v not_o our_o heart_n and_o affection_n to_o move_v towards_o he_o our_o affection_n be_v usual_o most_o deep_a when_o they_o run_v on_o without_o any_o noise_n wherefore_o what_o ever_o satan_n put_v upon_o we_o we_o must_v hold_v our_o own_o that_o for_o all_o he_o and_o his_o tentation_n and_o those_o impulsion_n of_o original_a

28._o a_o mad_a part_n it_o be_v for_o a_o man_n to_o think_v that_o by_o commit_v murder_n the_o great_a of_o all_o murder_n upon_o himself_o to_o make_v any_o a_o end_n for_o their_o sinful_a life_n

they_o out_o of_o the_o rule_n may_v make_v foul_a work_n for_o satan_n to_o play_v upon_o the_o weakness_n of_o many_o poor_a christian_n soul_n i_o know_v no_o medicine_n next_o to_o the_o word_n and_o prayer_n of_o better_a use_n to_o hold_v such_o man_n hand_n from_o their_o own_o life_n than_o fear_v of_o be_v damn_v in_o hell_n a_o indirect_a plea_n it_o be_v for_o any_o to_o speak_v for_o such_o and_o full_a of_o danger_n etc._n some_o think_v thereby_o to_o ease_v perplex_a conscience_n but_o it_o be_v the_o ready_a way_n to_o perplex_v the_o heart_n 11._o and_o engulsie_n the_o

those_o sin_n that_o will_v affright_v conscience_n and_o the_o cause_n why_o civil_a man_n feel_v less_o disturbance_n from_o temptation_n be_v because_o they_o be_v whole_o under_o the_o power_n of_o temptation_n till_o god_n awaken_v their_o heart_n what_o danger_n they_o see_v not_o they_o fear_v not_o the_o strong_a man_n hold_v his_o possession_n in_o they_o and_o be_v too_o wise_a by_o

they_o be_v satan_n stale_n take_v by_o he_o at_o his_o pleasure_n who_o satan_n use_v to_o draw_v other_o into_o the_o same_o snare_n therefore_o satan_n trouble_v not_o they_o nor_o himself_o

be_v willing_a to_o be_v make_v use_n of_o by_o man_n as_o by_o woman_n by_o poor_a as_o well_o as_o by_o rich_a greeneham_n for_o as_o one_o speak_v who_o be_v of_o great_a experience_n this_o way_n

the_o rich_a for_o man_n than_o woman_n etc._n etc._n 3._o by_o all_o mean_n we_o must_v keep_v council_n except_o the_o matter_n stand_v so_o that_o we_o sin_n in_o keep_v close_o their_o secret_n and_o here_o if_o we_o have_v cause_n to_o doubt_v any_o thing_n as_o though_o his_o secret_n will_v be_v pernicious_a we_o shall_v do_v well_o to_o tell_v he_o that_o if_o he_o ask_v for_o counsel_n

rather_o lose_v a_o friend_n of_o he_o than_o keep_v his_o sinful_a secret_n and_o lose_v a_o friend_n of_o god_n but_o if_o it_o may_v be_v do_v then_o by_o all_o mean_n keep_v it_o from_o all_o and_o chief_a of_o all_o some_o secret_n of_o the_o wife_n from_o the_o husband_n of_o the_o husband_n from_o the_o wife_n 4._o confess_v again_o to_o they_o when_o we_o ourselves_o have_v be_v heal_v
