will_v not_o always_o cry_v come_v neither_o must_v i_o the_o time_n be_v at_o hand_n when_o you_o will_v say_v one_o to_o another_o we_o have_v a_o preacher_n we_o have_v a_o teacher_n we_o have_v a_o wellwisher_a and_o a_o lover_n of_o our_o soul_n among_o we_o but_o we_o do_v not_o improve_v and_o profit_v under_o he_o as_o we_o may_v and_o therefore_o god_n have_v send_v he_o away_o from_o we_o as_o he_o do_v jonah_n to_o nineveh_n when_o jerusalem_n despise_v he_o o_o hear_v i_o then_o while_o you_o may_v and_o pray_v with_o i_o while_o you_o may_v and_o accept_v of_o the_o tender_a of_o salvation_n from_o i_o while_o you_o may_v yet_o a_o little_a while_n and_o you_o that_o have_v see_v i_o shall_v see_v i_o no_o more_o and_o you_o that_o have_v hear_v i_o as_o job_n say_v shall_v say_v where_o be_v he_o it_o be_v but_o a_o little_a and_o those_o seat_n shall_v have_v other_o hearer_n and_o this_o pulpit_n have_v another_o preacher_n it_o be_v but_o a_o little_a that_o

and_o the_o last_o request_n i_o be_o like_a to_o make_v to_o you_o be_v repulse_v and_o slight_v by_o you_o o_o my_o dear_a neighbour_n and_o friend_n of_o who_o i_o travel_v till_o christ_n be_v

the_o pulpit_n yet_o i_o shall_v think_v all_o well_o bestow_v can_v i_o but_o see_v you_o begin_v to_o turn_v this_o sermon_n into_o practice_n and_o to_o follow_v peace_n and_o holiness_n without_o which_o you_o can_v see_v the_o lord_n oh_o what_o a_o joyful_a hour_n work_v will_v i_o esteem_v this_o and_o how_o hearty_o will_v i_o bless_v your_o god_n and_o my_o god_n that_o prosper_v his_o

conclude_v with_o the_o prophet_n isa_n 49.4_o though_o i_o have_v labour_v in_o vain_a and_o spend_v my_o strength_n for_o nought_o yet_o sure_o my_o judgement_n be_v with_o the_o lord_n and_o my_o

follow_v and_o obey_v read_v at_o your_o leisure_n ezek._n 3.16_o 17_o 18_o and_o see_v whether_o i_o speak_v truth_n or_o a_o lie_n it_o be_v you_o that_o must_v have_v the_o reward_n of_o

shall_v not_o you_o then_o be_v as_o much_o concern_v for_o yourselves_o as_o i_o be_o for_o you_o now_o you_o enjoy_v your_o health_n and_o the_o sad_a accent_n of_o a_o die_a sinner_n be_v not_o hear_v in_o your_o habitation_n but_o will_v it_o be_v always_o thus_o now_o each_o of_o you_o sit_v under_o his_o vine_n with_o delight_n and_o there_o be_v no_o carry_v into_o captivity_n nor_o no_o

will_v this_o last_o always_o suppose_v thou_o have_v a_o crown_n on_o thy_o head_n how_o long_o will_v thou_o wear_v it_o suppose_v thou_o have_v a_o sceptre_n in_o thy_o hand_n how_o long_o will_v thou_o hold_v it_o they_o be_v sick_a at_o rome_n and_o die_v in_o prince_n court_n as_o well_o as_o at_o the_o spital_n yea_o king_n themselves_o can_v keep_v their_o crown_n on_o their_o head_n nor_o their_o head_n on_o their_o shoulder_n but_o must_v stoop_v when_o death_n strike_v and_o go_v as_o naked_a to_o their_o bed_n of_o dust_n as_o other_o man_n and_o in_o that_o day_n all_o

the_o top_n of_o their_o pleasure_n the_o top_n of_o their_o honour_n and_o preferment_n will_v dog_v they_o into_o another_o world_n hence_o say_v abner_n to_o joah_n 2_o sam._n 2.26_o know_v thou_o
