though_o she_o seek_v after_o her_o lover_n she_o shall_v not_o come_v as_o they_o as_o if_o he_o shall_v say_v i_o will_v take_v a_o sure_a course_n with_o they_o to_o reclaim_v they_o to_o myself_o

nor_o satisfaction_n in_o they_o as_o former_o she_o have_v do_v from_o whence_o we_o may_v observe_v that_o when_o god_n intend_v to_o do_v any_o soul_n good_a either_o to_o reclaim_v they_o from_o a_o fall_v condition_n or_o to_o bring_v person_n to_o the_o knowledge_n of_o himself_o the_o usual_a way_n that_o he_o take_v herein_o be_v to_o discover_v to_o they_o the_o emptiness_n and_o

they_o be_v bring_v to_o see_v the_o strength_n of_o all_o thing_n to_o help_v they_o be_v but_o weakness_n than_o they_o cry_v in_o the_o lord_n our_o god_n be_v the_o health_n of_o israel_n so_o in_o 1_o ecles_n 1.2_o solomon_n after_o his_o set_v his_o heart_n to_o find_v out_o content_a in_o the_o creature_n and_o after_o his_o follow_v other_o god_n and_o forsake_v the_o lord_n who_o have_v appear_v twice_o unto_o he_o you_o shall_v find_v upon_o his_o return_n this_o be_v the_o account_n that_o he_o leave_v behind_o he_o all_o be_v vanity_n and_o vexation_n of_o spirit_n &_o the_o reason_n why_o god_n take_v such_o a_o course_n with_o man_n be_v because_o while_o the_o soul_n see_v any_o fullness_n in_o any_o thing_n in_o heaven_n or_o earth_n whereby_o to_o lean_v to_o beside_o christ_n it_o will_v fasten_v at_o the_o horn_n of_o that_o altar_n be_v it_o what_o it_o will_v and_o never_o make_v any_o further_a search_n or_o inquiry_n after_o christ_n the_o carriage_n of_o the_o soul_n in_o this_o case_n be_v like_o the_o carriage_n of_o jacob_n in_o a_o other_o for_o while_o there_o be_v corn_n in_o canaan_n jacob_n never_o think_v nor_o mention_n go_v into_o

there_o be_v any_o food_n to_o be_v get_v for_o the_o soul_n here_o below_o it_o look_v no_o high_a and_o therefore_o it_o be_v that_o the_o lord_n be_v please_v to_o out_o off_o all_o spring_n of_o comfort_n and_o peace_n to_o be_v have_v from_o any_o thing_n here_o below_o that_o so_o the_o soul_n may_v see_v jesus_n christ_n to_o be_v he_o who_o have_v all_o the_o well-spring_n of_o comfort_n and_o peace_n and_o joy_n and_o refreshment_n to_o the_o soul_n 1._o use_v let_v we_o a_o little_a from_o the_o consideration_n of_o this_o doctrine_n examine_v our_o spirit_n and_o see_v how_o our_o heart_n stand_v affect_v or_o what_o our_o spirit_n be_v fraught_v with_o whether_o with_o high_a conceit_n of_o the_o world_n of_o the_o excellency_n and_o fullness_n and_o glory_n of_o it_o or_o whether_o with_o the_o excellent_a fullnes_n &_o goodness_n that_o be_v in_o jesus_n christ_n certain_o this_o be_v a_o undoubted_a truth_n that_o if_o any_o man_n love_v the_o world_n the_o love_n of_o the_o father_n be_v not_o in_o they_o let_v they_o profess_v what_o they_o will_v therefore_o it_o behoove_v every_o man_n to_o look_v about_o he_o and_o see_v whether_o god_n have_v ever_o yet_o make_v this_o discovery_n to_o the_o soul_n namely_o that_o all_o the_o thing_n of_o the_o world_n be_v empry_a and_o poor_a &_o weak_a not_o able_a to_o give_v out_o the_o least_o dram_n of_o true_a comfort_n to_o the_o soul_n i_o beseech_v you_o let_v we_o again_o ask_v our_o heart_n this_o question_n as_o christ_n do_v in_o the_o like_a case_n be_v we_o able_a to_o drink_v of_o the_o cup_n that_o christ_n have_v drink_v of_o and_o to_o be_v baptize_v with_o the_o baptism_n that_o christ_n be_v baptize_v with_o we_o do_v not_o know_v what_o employment_n christ_n may_v put_v we_o upon_o certain_a it_o be_v that_o that_o heart_n which_o be_v in_o the_o last_o engage_v to_o the_o world_n will_v never_o do_v any_o great_a matter_n for_o jesus_n christ_n he_o will_v play_v fast_o and_o loose_a with_o christ_n this_o we_o all_o profess_v to_o know_v that_o we_o can_v serve_v two_o master_n god_n &_o mammon_n their_o command_n be_v so_o opposite_a one_o to_o each_o other_o as_o that_o if_o we_o obey_v the_o one_o we_o must_v reject_v the_o other_o wherefore_o let_v we_o commune_v with_o our_o own_o heart_n and_o see_v a_o little_a how_o our_o spirit_n stand_v affect_v to_o christ_n do_v we_o find_v upon_o serious_a examination_n that_o christ_n and_o his_o law_n do_v bear_v sway_n in_o our_o heart_n &_o that_o excellency_n that_o be_v in_o they_o do_v in_o the_o eye_n of_o our_o soul_n weigh_v down_o all_o that_o riches_n and_o honour_n and_o pleasure_n and_o preferment_n of_o the_o world_n nay_o more_o than_o this_o do_v you_o see_v so_o much_o excellency_n in_o god_n way_n as_o that_o it_o will_v bear_v your_o charge_n with_o great_a allowance_n through_o those_o miseric_n and_o sorrow_n reproach_n and_o loss_n that_o you_o shall_v sustain_v in_o this_o life_n yea_o even_a life_n itself_o we_o shall_v see_v paul_n when_o he_o cast_v up_o his_o account_n of_o matter_n of_o this_o nature_n he_o triumph_v in_o that_o glorious_a allowance_n that_o he_o see_v provide_v for_o he_o by_o god_n 2_o cor._n 4.1_o say_v he_o our_o light_a affliction_n which_o be_v but_o for_o a_o moment_n they_o work_v for_o we_o
a_o far_o more_o excellent_a eternal_a weight_n of_o glory_n wherefore_o let_v we_o not_o rest_v satisfy_v with_o a_o face_n of_o profession_n but_o let_v we_o labour_n to_o make_v inquiry_n into_o our_o own_o heart_n and_o see_v what_o discovery_n god_n have_v make_v to_o we_o of_o the_o creature_n emptiness_n and_o his_o own_o fullness_n 2._o use_v we_o may_v from_o the_o doct._n deliver_v see_v the_o reason_n why_o the_o lord_n many_o time_n be_v please_v to_o strip_v his_o own_o people_n naked_a of_o creature_n comfort_n it_o be_v that_o so_o the_o lord_n may_v discover_v to_o his_o people_n the_o emptiness_n the_o flittingnes_n of_o thè_z that_o so_o they_o may_v see_v more_o fullness_n yea_o even_o all_o fullness_n in_o himself_o and_o therefore_o though_o the_o world_n misconstrue_v god_n meaning_n to_o his_o saint_n in_o his_o carriage_n towards_o they_o in_o the_o passage_n of_o his_o providence_n in_o say_v they_o be_v poor_a and_o mean_a and_o the_o offscouring_a of_o the_o world_n and_o god_n regard_v they_o not_o let_v not_o the_o servant_n of_o god_n misconstrue_v his_o meaning_n too_o this_o will_v but_o aggravate_v their_o sorrow_n but_o let_v we_o see_v what_o the_o scripture_n say_v and_o consult_v with_o it_o 2_o james_n 5._o harken_v my_o belove_a brethren_n have_v not_o god_n choose_v the_o poor_a of_o of_o this_o world_n rich_a in_o faith_n and_o heir_n of_o the_o kingdom_n this_o be_v a_o thing_n worthy_a of_o serious_a attention_n that_o god_n shall_v choose_v poor_a nothing_o of_o this_o world_n to_o be_v rich_a in_o faith_n and_o heir_n of_o the_o kingdom_n and_o this_o be_v most_o usual_o find_v that_o the_o mean_a the_o saines_n condition_n be_v in_o the_o world_n the_o full_a and_o rich_a be_v they_o in_o

please_v to_o take_v away_o any_o of_o these_o from_o we_o and_o to_o empty_v we_o of_o these_o we_o shall_v labour_v to_o make_v that_o use_n of_o it_o which_o the_o lord_n expect_v we_o shall_v namely_o to_o see_v more_o fullness_n in_o he_o from_o who_o we_o have_v all_o our_o mercy_n the_o three_o thing_n lay_v down_o in_o the_o word_n be_v the_o fruit_n or_o effect_n that_o the_o mean_v
