will_v burn_v the_o root_n of_o whatsoever_o come_v in_o it_o so_o be_v there_o some_o heat_n as_o of_o lust_n or_o wrath_n that_o do_v especial_o wrong_v the_o very_a root_n and_o disturb_v the_o

by_o god_n far_a blessing_n it_o will_v prove_v more_o fruitful_a your_o hard_a ground_n indeed_o be_v common_o barren_a but_o a_o mellow_a ground_n that_o be_v quick_o resolve_v yet_o not_o

it_o will_v doubtless_o prove_v a_o rich_a a_o fruitful_a soul_n it_o be_v a_o sign_n also_o of_o good_a ground_n if_o after_o a_o shower_n of_o rain_n follow_v a_o great_a drought_n the_o ground_n

the_o nature_n of_o the_o ground_n which_o we_o be_v to_o husband_n now_o we_o must_v see_v the_o husbandry_n itself_o or_o the_o labour_n we_o be_v to_o bestow_v upon_o it_o which_o though_o it_o be_v manifold_a yet_o it_o be_v chief_o twofold_a plough_v and_o sow_v since_o the_o bringing-in_a of_o the_o harvest_n be_v only_a god_n work_n but_o the_o two_o first_o be_v both_o he_o and_o we_o and_o the_o first_o of_o these_o our_o labour_n be_v about_o the_o plough_n which_o the_o prophet_n bid_v we_o employ_v in_o our_o spiritual_a husbandry_n while_o so_o earnest_o he_o bid_v we_o plow-up_a the_o fallow_a ground_n of_o our_o heart_n yet_o before_o this_o our_o labour_n there_o be_v one_o more_o which_o god_n himself_o do_v common_o make_v his_o work_n the_o better_a to_o prepare_v and_o enrich_v the_o ground_n for_o our_o spiritual_a labour_n your_o best_a husbandman_n lay_v soil_n upon_o their_o ground_n whereby_o they_o do_v deface_v and_o enrich_v it_o so_o do_v god_n most_o common_o by_o we_o when_o he_o intend_v to_o make_v we_o fruitful_a he_o lay_v disgrace_n and_o other_o affliction_n on_o we_o whereby_o the_o ground_n of_o our_o heart_n be_v heat_v with_o devotion_n towards_o god_n and_o become_v more_o fruitful_a but_o our_o spiritual_a labour_n begin_v with_o the_o blow_n now_o a_o chief_a time_n for_o plough_v as_o the_o husbandman_n tell_v we_o be_v the_o spring_n the_o ground_n be_v then_o mellow_a and_o therefore_o easy_o wrought_v and_o the_o weed_n be_v then_o turn_v up_o by_o the_o root_n before_o they_o have_v seed_v will_v not_o spring_v easy_o again_o in_o like_a manner_n the_o soul_n be_v best_a inform_v when_o it_o be_v young_a then_o be_v it_o yield_v and_o best_a to_o be_v wrought_v upon_o and_o vice_n then_o be_v well_o pluck'd-up_a be_v never_o likely_a to_o grow_v again_o in_o the_o summer_n the_o ground_n be_v more_o hard_a to_o be_v plow_v and_o in_o winter_n more_o foul_a so_o the_o soul_n in_o manly_a age_n be_v common_o too_o bold_a and_o obstinate_a against_o instruction_n and_o in_o old_a age_n it_o be_v too_o much_o trouble_v with_o the_o disease_n of_o the_o body_n and_o the_o affair_n of_o life_n and_o as_o we_o must_v thus_o know_v the_o season_n so_o we_o must_v know_v the_o degree_n of_o the_o labour_n when_o the_o husbandman_n dress_v a_o vine_n or_o a_o olive-tree_n he_o deal_v gentle_o with_o it_o but_o when_o he_o be_v to_o get-up_a the_o weed_n in_o his_o ground_n he_o plowsdeep_o that_o he_o may_v fetch-up_a the_o very_a root_n so_o must_v we_o deal_v by_o our_o old_a and_o deepe-rooted_n sin_n we_o must_v use_v a_o holy_a and_o a_o industrious_a violence_n to_o our_o soul_n and_o as_o we_o must_v use_v violence_n so_o we_o must_v use_v diligence_n it_o be_v observe_v that_o when_o weed_n be_v fulgrow_v if_o you_o plough_v so_o thick_a that_o you_o can_v scarce_o see_v where_o the_o coulter_n have_v go_v it_o utter_o destroy_v the_o weed_n so_o be_v it_o in_o a_o vicious_a soul_n if_o when_o the_o vice_n be_v grow_v to_o the_o high_a there_o be_v such_o exact_a labour_n use_v that_o every_o part_n of_o the_o soul_n be_v careful_o plowd-up_a it_o will_v prove_v no_o doubt_n the_o extirpation_n of_o all_o vice_n yet_o with_o this_o violence_n and_o diligence_n we_o must_v use_v some_o skill_n if_o the_o crust_n of_o the_o earth_n in_o plough_v be_v turn'd-up_a very_o broad_a it_o remain_v still_o whole_a whereby_o neither_o the_o weed_n be_v kill_v nor_o can_v the_o ground_n be_v well_o harrow_v so_o if_o a_o man_n sin_n be_v too_o broad_o layd-open_a his_o vice_n be_v not_o kill_v nor_o can_v he_o well_o be_v smooth_v again_o we_o must_v labour_v therefore_o rather_o to_o plough_v close_o that_o so_o the_o ground_n may_v be_v the_o more-fine_o break_a yet_o as_o in_o plough_v they_o common_o leave_v some_o balk_n which_o be_v the_o gross_a earth_n that_o have_v escape_v the_o plough_n so_o in_o the_o examination_n of_o the_o soul_n there_o be_v many_o fault_n which_o though_o we_o search_v diligent_o yet_o escape_v our_o search_n when_o new_a ground_n be_v broken-up_a if_o it_o be_v rich_a and_o prepare_v for_o seed_n it_o be_v enough_o to_o plough_v it_o once_o and_o sow_v it_o immediate_o and_o harrow_v it_o but_o if_o it_o be_v gravelly_a ground_n you_o must_v trifallow_v it_o as_o they_o say_v plough_v it_o often_o so_o if_o a_o man_n be_v of_o a_o towardly_a disposition_n one_o serious_a examination_n may_v happy_o serve_v but_o if_o he_o be_v dry_a and_o hard_a he_o must_v be_v more_o
