therefore_o lazy_a and_o negligent_a careless_a or_o remiss_a in_o our_o duty_n because_o we_o want_v either_o reason_n or_o motive_n that_o be_v proper_a and_o powerful_a to_o stir_v we_o up_o to_o the_o do_v of_o it_o but_o because_o we_o want_v heart_n to_o weigh_v the_o force_n of_o the_o reason_n and_o be_v either_o stupid_a or_o inconsiderate_a when_o we_o have_v to_o do_v in_o matter_n

and_o therefore_o we_o be_v not_o at_o our_o own_o disposal_n and_o may_v not_o serve_v who_o we_o please_v or_o work_v or_o let_v it_o alone_o as_o we_o find_v ourselves_o incline_v but_o our_o

servant_n and_o how_o dreadful_a a_o doom_n be_v pass_v upon_o he_o let_v we_o hear_v from_o the_o lord_n own_o mouth_n mat._n 25._o 30._o cast_v you_o the_o unprofitable_a servant_n into_o utter_a darkness_n there_o shall_v be_v weep_v &_o gnash_v of_o tooth_n 2._o let_v it_o be_v consider_v that_o as_o we_o have_v work_n to_o do_v so_o we_o must_v come_v to_o a_o account_n for_o our_o work_n and_o we_o shall_v be_v examine_v both_o what_o we_o have_v do_v and_o how_o in_o plain_a term_n there_o be_v a_o day_n of_o judgement_n to_o come_v upon_o we_o all_o and_o the_o work_n of_o that_o day_n will_v be_v to_o proceed_v upon_o and_o according_a to_o our_o work_n this_o the_o parable_n of_o the_o talent_n prove_v matth._n 25._o 19_o this_o the_o author_n to_o the_o hebrew_n tell_v we_o heb._n 9_o 27._o it_o be_v appoint_v unto_o man_n once_o to_o die_v but_o after_o this_o the_o judgement_n and_o this_o the_o preacher_n conclude_v his_o sermon_n with_o as_o be_v word_n of_o great_a

whether_o it_o be_v good_a or_o whether_o it_o be_v evil_a a_o account_n we_o must_v come_v to_o and_o that_o so_o strict_a that_o none_o of_o our_o neglect_n or_o loytering_n can_v escape_v unobserved_a and_o a_o search_n so_o punctual_a and_o exact_a that_o it_o will_v produce_v the_o very_a hide_a thing_n of_o darkness_n and_o bring_v to_o light_v what_o we_o now_o hide_v so_o close_o from_o the_o eye_n of_o man_n what_o then_o may_v be_v some_o comfort_n to_o the_o slothful_a servant_n here_o the_o hope_n that_o his_o master_n may_v neglect_v or_o forget_v to_o call_v he_o to_o a_o account_n can_v be_v no_o shelter_n nor_o support_v in_o this_o case_n to_o he_o that_o neglect_v to_o do_v the_o work_n that_o god_n send_v he_o into_o this_o world_n to_o do_v for_o as_o his_o work_n be_v set_v so_o also_o a_o day_n of_o account_n be_v determine_v and_o every_o soul_n and_o the_o secret_n of_o it_o shall_v be_v bring_v into_o judgement_n 3._o add_v to_o this_o that_o when_o death_n come_v it_o will_v be_v too_o late_o to_o set_v about_o our_o work_v that_o be_v a_o state_n in_o which_o no_o work_n can_v be_v do_v and_o then_o we_o have_v the_o full_a force_n of_o the_o reason_n apparent_a we_o have_v work_n to_o do_v and_o we_o shall_v be_v call_v to_o a_o account_n whither_o we_o have_v do_v it_o and_o if_o death_n come_v it_o can_v be_v do_v and_o therefore_o it_o follow_v and_o the_o reason_n be_v too_o strong_a to_o be_v deny_v that_o we_o ought_v to_o do_v our_o work_n while_o we_o have_v time_n and_o life_n because_o of_o approach_a death_n the_o night_n come_v when_o no_o man_n can_v work_v and_o now_o have_v thus_o consider_v the_o strength_n of_o the_o reason_n wherein_o it_o lie_v let_v i_o consider_v the_o reason_n itself_o in_o its_o part_n and_o urge_v the_o necessity_n of_o our_o work_v now_o from_o such_o consideration_n as_o the_o reason_n itself_o will_v allow_v and_o here_o i_o shall_v betake_v myself_o to_o the_o word_n of_o the_o
