and_o stranger_n shall_v serve_v as_o a_o effectual_a reason_n to_o wean_v our_o heart_n from_o the_o love_n of_o the_o world_n and_o worldly_a vanity_n and_o to_o place_v they_o in_o heaven_n and_o only_o in_o heavenly_a joy_n which_o be_v our_o country_n and_o place_n of_o residence_n therefore_o if_o we_o be_v pilgrim_n on_o earth_n we_o must_v follow_v their_o practice_n and_o not_o set_v our_o heart_n on_o worldly_a thing_n because_o the_o time_n we_o have_v to_o enjoy_v they_o be_v very_o short_a let_v he_o that_o have_v enjoy_v worldly_a prosperity_n the_o long_a time_n look_v back_o and_o he_o shall_v see_v that_o all_o that_o be_v pass_v be_v but_o as_o a_o dream_n or_o shadow_n and_o as_o the_o twinkle_n of_o a_o eye_n in_o respect_n of_o eternity_n but_o all_o our_o love_n and_o longing_n must_v be_v place_v on_o our_o heavenly_a inheritance_n where_o we_o be_v for_o ever_o to_o enjoy_v a_o eternal_a weight_n of_o glory_n and_o happiness_n without_o end_n now_o if_o we_o will_v thus_o estéem_v of_o the_o world_n and_o worldly_a vanity_n learn_v then_o of_o the_o apostle_n to_o use_v they_o as_o though_o we_o use_v they_o not_o not_o as_o place_n to_o rest_v in_o or_o thing_n wherein_o we_o take_v our_o chief_a repose_n but_o as_o a_o way_n to_o travel_v in_o and_o as_o necessary_n to_o further_o we_o in_o our_o journey_n who_o will_v seat_v his_o heart_n and_o affection_n on_o those_o delight_n which_o he_o see_v as_o he_o pass_v by_o who_o in_o his_o right_a wit_n will_v so_o dote_v on_o these_o thing_n in_o which_o he_o have_v not_o any_o interest_n as_o that_o he_o shall_v neglect_v far_o better_o and_o permanent_a delight_n in_o his_o own_o country_n let_v we_o then_o like_o traveller_n refresh_v ourselves_o with_o the_o thing_n of_o this_o life_n and_o so_o again_o go_v forward_o on_o our_o journey_n cast_v away_o every_o thing_n that_o press_v down_o and_o the_o sin_n that_o hang_v fast_o on_o and_o let_v we_o run_v with_o patience_n the_o race_n that_o be_v set_v before_o we_o let_v we_o learn_v to_o imitate_v the_o eagle_n which_o seldom_o light_v on_o the_o earth_n but_o when_o constrain_v with_o hunger_n she_o stoop_v to_o her_o prey_n and_o when_o she_o have_v feed_v mount_v again_o aloft_o above_o the_o cloud_n so_o let_v we_o not_o suffer_v our_o heart_n and_o affection_n any_o long_o to_o rest_n upon_o the_o earth_n than_o we_o be_v compel_v with_o our_o present_a necessity_n but_o like_o the_o eaglet_n of_o jesus_n christ_n let_v we_o resort_v thither_o where_o the_o dead_a carcase_n be_v and_o be_v feed_v herewith_o let_v we_o amount_v high_a in_o divine_a contemplation_n have_v our_o conversation_n in_o heaven_n and_o let_v we_o like_o stranger_n and_o pilgrim_n abstain_v from_o carnal_a lust_n which_o fight_v against_o our_o soul_n again_o the_o world_n be_v not_o simple_o a_o place_n of_o pilgrimage_n alone_o but_o a_o place_n of_o warfare_n wherein_o we_o be_v assault_v on_o all_o side_n and_o by_o all_o possible_a mean_n hinder_v in_o our_o spiritual_a voyage_n and_o therefore_o see_v our_o time_n be_v but_o short_a and_o so_o full_a of_o trouble_n let_v we_o seat_v our_o affection_n and_o our_o heart_n on_o the_o main_a business_n which_o tend_v to_o our_o spiritual_a warfare_n as_o jacob_n say_v the_o day_n of_o his_o pilgrimage_n be_v not_o only_o few_o but_o evil_a also_o

here_o we_o have_v need_n to_o be_v always_o in_o the_o complete_a armour_n of_o a_o christian●_n because_o we_o fight_v not_o only_o against_o flesh_n and_o blood_n but_o against_o principality_n power_n and_o worldly_a governor_n the_o prince_n of_o the_o darkness_n of_o the_o world_n which_o be_v in_o high_a place_n let_v we_o then_o with_o the_o apostle_n so_o run_v that_o we_o may_v
