by_o serve_v and_o provide_v thing_n for_o every_o part_n thereof_o if_o we_o spend_v so_o much_o time_n in_o feed_v refresh_a and_o repose_v the_o same_o if_o the_o great_a portion_n of_o our_o

to_o alter_v the_o state_n of_o our_o soul_n be_v it_o never_o so_o miserable_a four_o we_o may_v gather_v how_o material_a and_o important_a this_o matter_n be_v by_o the_o life_n of_o christ_n and_o his_o saint_n who_o withdraw_v themselves_o from_o all_o other_o worldly_a affair_n think_v it_o work_v enough_o to_o attend_v to_o this_o business_n of_o the_o soul_n and_o whosoever_o at_o this_o

saint_n and_o do_v remember_v withal_o that_o they_o undertake_v they_o for_o no_o other_o respect_n but_o only_o for_o the_o better_a bring_v this_o business_n of_o their_o soul_n to_o a_o end_n it_o will_v soon_o appear_v how_o weighty_a a_o thing_n and_o how_o precious_a the_o salvation_n of_o the_o soul_n be_v which_o they_o do_v think_v nothing_o too_o dear_a buy_v with_o all_o the_o misery_n sorrow_n and_o pain_n that_o this_o world_n can_v afford_v let_v we_o also_o consider_v that_o whatsoever_o move_v they_o to_o such_o care_n and_o earnestness_n in_o this_o behalf_n have_v no_o less_o place_n in_o we_o doubtless_o then_o in_o they_o see_v that_o our_o soul_n be_v as_o dear_a buy_v as_o much_o worth_n and_o create_v to_o as_o great_a glory_n as_o they_o the_o danger_n of_o our_o

to_o damnation_n than_o they_o who_o therefore_o see_v not_o that_o we_o be_v in_o every_o respect_n to_o account_v the_o care_n of_o our_o soul_n as_o important_a and_o necessary_a to_o we_o as_o ever_o it_o have_v be_v to_o any_o wherefore_o let_v not_o the_o wise_a man_n glory_n in_o his_o wisdom_n nor_o the_o strong_a man_n in_o his_o might_n nor_o the_o rich_a man_n in_o his_o riches_n say_v god_n by_o his_o prophet_n jeremie_n 9_o but_o let_v he_o that_o glori_v glory_n in_o this_o that_o he_o know_v i_o for_o i_o be_o the_o only_a lord_n that_o work_v mercy_n judgement_n and_o

then_o in_o the_o knowledge_n and_o service_n of_o god_n and_o procure_v mercy_n and_o mild_a judgement_n for_o our_o soul_n the_o second_o consideration_n how_o we_o ought_v to_o arm_v our_o mind_n against_o temptation_n that_o happen_v when_o we_o seek_v earnest_o to_o serve_v god_n first_o see_v this_o business_n of_o our_o soul_n be_v of_o so_o great_a moment_n he_o that_o earnest_o go_v about_o the_o same_o must_v offer_v himself_o up_o unto_o god_n and_o be_v most_o ready_a to_o endure_v constant_o all_o the_o danger_n comber_n and_o difficulty_n that_o shall_v happen_v and_o

enterprise_n can_v never_o be_v achieve_v without_o many_o contradiction_n wherefore_o let_v he_o persuade_v himself_o that_o when_o he_o have_v settle_v his_o mind_n serious_o to_o follow_v this_o

yea_o if_o that_o will_v not_o serve_v by_o terrify_v he_o with_o persecution_n extortion_n obloquy_n slander_n and_o torment_n and_o with_o all_o kind_n of_o disgrace_n final_o the_o devil_n a_o profess_a enemy_n to_o all_o that_o take_v care_n of_o their_o soul_n will_v seek_v to_o entrap_v he_o with_o a_o thousand_o train_n passion_n and_o subtle_a temptation_n leave_v nothing_o that_o he_o think_v may_v remove_v a_o man_n from_o these_o endeavour_n tend_v to_o his_o salvation_n second_o the_o case_n stand_v thus_o let_v that_o say_n of_o scripture_n come_v to_o our_o mind_n my_o son_n come_v to_o the_o service_n of_o god_n stand_v in_o justice_n and_o fear_n and_o prepare_v thy_o soul_n unto_o temptation_n wherefore_o he_o that_o enter_v into_o the_o way_n of_o life_n must_v remember_v that_o he_o be_v not_o come_v to_o a_o play_n pastime_n or_o pleasure_n but_o to_o a_o continual_a rough_a battle_n and_o fight_n against_o most_o unplacable_a enemy_n and_o let_v he_o resolve_v himself_o never_o in_o this_o world_n to_o look_v for_o quiet_a and_o peace_n no_o not_o so_o much_o as_o for_o any_o truce_n for_o a_o moment_n of_o time_n but_o arm_v himself_o for_o a_o

and_o assault_n of_o his_o enemy_n let_v he_o see_v and_o peruse_v the_o pattern_n of_o his_o captain_n course_n who_o from_o his_o birth_n to_o his_o death_n be_v in_o a_o restless_a battle_n persecute_v in_o his_o swaddle_a clout_n by_o herod_n annoy_v the_o rest_n of_o his_o infancy_n by_o banishment_n wander_v and_o need_n in_o the_o flower_n of_o his_o age_n slander_v hate_a pursue_v
