witty_a jest_n but_o to_o hear_v of_o a_o inheritance_n of_o a_o hundred_o pound_n a_o year_n that_o be_v fall_v to_o a_o man_n will_v make_v he_o more_o solli●ly_o merry_a within_o light_n be_v sow_v to_o the_o righteous_a and_o joy_n for_o the_o upright_a psal._n 97._o 11._o my_o servant_n say_v god_n shall_v sing_v and_o rejoice_v but_o they_o shall_v weep_v etc._n etc._n isa._n 65._o 14._o 8._o indeed_o we_o be_v not_o merry_a enough_o because_o we_o be_v not_o christian_n enough_o because_o sin_n be_v a_o cool_a of_o our_o joy_n as_o water_n be_v of_o fire_n and_o like_o the_o worm_n of_o jonah_n his_o gourd_n bite_v the_o very_a root_n of_o our_o joy_n and_o make_v it_o wither_v yea_o sin_n like_o a_o damp_n put_v out_o all_o the_o light_n of_o our_o pleasure_n and_o deprive_v we_o of_o the_o light_n of_o god_n countenance_n as_o it_o do_v david_n psal._n 51._o 12._o and_o 4._o 6._o so_o that_o the_o fault_n be_v either_o first_o in_o the_o too_o much_o sensuality_n of_o a_o

joy_n as_o bee_n be_v drown_v in_o hon●y_n but_o live_v in_o vinegar_n man_n will_v have_v spiritual_a joy_n but_o withal_o they_o will_v not_o part_v with_o their_o carnal_a joy_n yet_o this_o be_v a_o infallible_a conclusion_n there_o be_v no_o enjoy_v a_o worldly_a paradise_n here_o and_o another_o hereafter_o 9_o or_o second_o the_o fault_n be_v in_o the_o ta●te_n not_o in_o the_o meat_n in_o the_o folly_n of_o the_o judgement_n not_o in_o the_o pearl_n when_o a_o grain_n of_o corn_n be_v prefer_v before_o it_o to_o taste_v spiritual_a joy_n a_o man_n must_v be_v spiritual_a for_o the_o spirit_n relish_v only_o the_o thing_n of_o the_o spirit_n and_o like_o love_v his_o like_o between_o a_o spiritual_a man_n and_o spiritual_a joy_n there_o be_v as_o mighty_a a_o appetite_n and_o enjoy_n as_o between_o fleshly_a meat_n and_o a_o carnal_a stomach_n therefore_o the_o want_n of_o this_o taste_n and_o apprehension_n condemn_v the_o world_n to_o be_v carnal_a but_o magnify_v the_o joy_n spiritual_a as_o be_v above_o her_o carnal_a apprehension_n or_o 10._o three_o herein_o lie_v the_o fault_n few_o feel_v these_o joy_n in_o this_o life_n because_o they_o will_v not_o crack_v the_o shell_n to_o get_v the_o kernel_n they_o will_n not_o pare_v the_o fruit_n to_o eat_v the_o pulp_n not_o till_o the_o ground_n to_o reap_v the_o harvest_n they_o fly_v the_o war_n and_o thereby_o lose_v the_o glory_n of_o the_o victory_n they_o will_v not_o dig_v the_o craggy_a mountain_n to_o find_v the_o mine_n of_o gold_n not_o prune_v the_o vine_n therefore_o enjoy_v not_o the_o fruit_n they_o fly_v moritification_n and_o therefore_o attain_v not_o the_o sweet_a spiritual_a consolation_n which_o ever_o attend_v the_o same_o and_o so_o much_o for_o the_o reason_n the_o use_n
