he_o and_o thou_o be_v partaker_n with_o the_o adulterer_n vers._n 22._o o_o consider_v you_o that_o forget_v god_n lest_o i_o tear_v you_o in_o piece_n and_o there_o be_v none_o to_o deliver_v you_o now_o therefore_o i_o beseech_v you_o observe_v that_o those_o that_o run_v with_o the_o wicked_a and_o be_v partaker_n with_o the_o ungodly_a in_o their_o wicked_a delight_n be_v those_o who_o the_o lord_n shall_v tear_v in_o piece_n thus_o you_o see_v that_o not_o only_o the_o wicked_a themselves_o but_o also_o their_o associate_n and_o partaker_n shall_v be_v tear_v in_o piece_n in_o the_o day_n of_o god_n fearful_a wrath_n o_o consider_v this_o sweet_a meat_n must_v have_v sour_a sauce_n and_o then_o i_o trust_v through_o the_o lord_n great_a mercy_n you_o will_v utter_o refuse_v it_o upon_o those_o term_n for_o what_o be_v it_o to_o gain_v the_o whole_a world_n and_o to_o lose_v our_o soul_n but_o to_o conclude_v if_o neither_o persuasion_n nor_o exhortation_n may_v prevail_v with_o you_o to_o break_v the_o neck_n of_o your_o cockfighting_n pleasure_n consider_v well_o with_o yourself_o that_o the_o lord_n have_v put_v you_o as_o it_o be_v into_o the_o cockpit_n of_o the_o round_a world_n to_o fight_v his_o battle_n against_o the_o flesh_n the_o world_n and_o the_o devil_n the_o strong_a strike_v the_o sore_a hit_v and_o the_o cunning_a fight_a cock_n in_o the_o world_n who_o be_v only_o to_o be_v wound_v with_o the_o spur_n of_o faith_n and_o piety_n and_o that_o all_o those_o that_o will_v overcome_v in_o this_o battle_n must_v be_v thorough_o feed_v with_o the_o word_n of_o god_n and_o daily_a breath_n with_o prayer_n and_o meditation_n whereby_o they_o strengthen_v their_o faith_n and_o sharpen_v the_o spur_n of_o their_o holy_a zeal_n and_o those_o that_o neglect_v this_o mean_n let_v they_o brag_v never_o so_o much_o upon_o their_o own_o dunghill_n yet_o when_o it_o come_v to_o a_o sound_a trial_n they_o will_v prove_v themselves_o to_o be_v brand_n fall_v craven_n and_o likewise_o consider_v that_o every_o hour_n idle_o spend_v and_o every_o vain_a word_n that_o proceed_v out_o of_o your_o mouth_n be_v as_o it_o be_v vain_a to_o your_o soul_n and_o all_o unlawful_a pleasure_n like_o hovel_n upon_o the_o spur_n of_o your_o devotion_n and_o then_o with_o wisdom_n consider_v what_o a_o unlikely_a or_o rather_o impossible_a a_o thing_n it_o be_v for_o a_o poor_a famish_a cock_n pitiful_o vain_a and_o thus_o hang_v and_o hovel_v to_o overcome_v a_o cock_n of_o that_o wonderful_a strength_n and_o devilish_a spirit_n that_o you_o be_v match_v withal_o again_o suppose_v that_o those_o that_o sit_v in_o the_o low_a ring_n of_o the_o cockpit_n be_v the_o devil_n and_o wicked_a spirit_n and_o those_o that_o sit_v in_o the_o upper_a ring_n of_o the_o cockpit_n be_v the_o glorious_a angel_n and_o bless_a saint_n both_o behold_v this_o doubtful_a battle_n though_o with_o contrary_a affection_n the_o angel_n rejoice_v when_o they_o see_v you_o fight_v this_o spiritual_a battle_n like_o a_o good_a soldier_n of_o jesus_n christ_n the_o wicked_a spirit_n wohp_a and_o hallow_v when_o they_o see_v you_o strike_v faint_a fight_v like_o a_o craven_a and_o fall_v beastly_a and_o hear_v dear_a brother_n that_o we_o make_v ourselves_o a_o laugh_a stock_n to_o this_o wicked_a spirit_n let_v we_o pray_v unto_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n to_o strengthen_v our_o faith_n and_o to_o assist_v we_o with_o his_o grace_n that_o we_o may_v resist_v the_o devil_n and_o make_v he_o fly_v from_o we_o and_o in_o the_o end_n tread_v
