know_v this_o there_o be_v the_o calling-card_n that_o for_o all_o these_o thing_n god_n will_v bring_v thou_o into_o judgement_n in_o the_o word_n we_o will_v consider_v two_o part_n word_n first_o

this_o be_v the_o reason_n why_o they_o be_v more_o licentious_a last_o joy_n young_a man_n want_v true_a joy_n in_o god_n therefore_o they_o betake_v themselves_o to_o carnal_a joy_n for_o sure_a it_o be_v that_o a_o man_n can_v live_v without_o joy_n and_o contentment_n if_o he_o have_v it_o not_o from_o the_o well_n of_o salvation_n he_o will_v drink_v it_o out_o of_o watery_a and_o slimy_a

the_o use_n of_o this_o point_n be_v in_o the_o first_o place_n a_o admonition_n to_o all_o young_a man_n admonion_n to_o take_v notice_n of_o these_o malady_n and_o spiritual_a disease_n in_o

to_o they_o first_o because_o they_o rejoice_v not_o where_o they_o ought_v they_o solace_n not_o themselves_o in_o god_n in_o who_o be_v the_o fountain_n of_o joy_n nor_o in_o christ_n jesus_n be_v in_o who_o be_v the_o spring_n of_o joy_n nor_o in_o the_o sacred_a word_n where_o there_o be_v the_o cistern_n of_o joy_n even_o as_o a_o bone_n when_o it_o be_v out_o of_o joint_n out_o of_o its_o

when_o they_o be_v not_o set_v upon_o god_n and_o christ_n now_o if_o young_a man_n will_v deal_v upright_o with_o themselves_o they_o shall_v perceive_v that_o for_o the_o most_o part_n in_o their_o

remainech_v that_o they_o that_o have_v wife_n be_v as_o though_o they_o have_v none_o and_o they_o that_o weep_v as_o if_o they_o weep_v not_o and_o they_o that_o rejoice_v as_o if_o they_o rejoice_v

be_v a_o spur_n the_o apostle_n add_v to_o quicken_v they_o up_o to_o practice_v all_o these_o thing_n in_o these_o word_n for_o the_o fashion_n of_o this_o world_n pass_v away_o the_o first_o general_a thing_n in_o the_o word_n preface_n be_v the_o apostle_n preface_n but_o this_o i_o say_v brothren_n and_o in_o this_o i_o will_v note_v but_o two_o thing_n i_o will_v but_o name_v they_o because_o i_o will_v not_o be_v straighten_a in_o two_o principal_a point_n that_o i_o will_v glad_o open_v first_o here_o i_o will_v note_v 1._o how_o confident_a and_o earnest_n and_o resolute_a a_o faithful_a minister_n will_v be_v when_o he_o come_v to_o a_o point_n that_o main_o concern_v his_o people_n in_o all_o other_o thing_n the_o apostle_n give_v they_o his_o answer_n so_o as_o it_o may_v seem_v he_o have_v not_o full_o resolve_v they_o i_o give_v my_o advice_n faith_n he_o and_o again_o i_o suppose_v this_o but_o now_o when_o he_o come_v unto_o the_o right_a use_n of_o the_o world_n that_o it_o be_v not_o abuse_v and_o the_o thought_n of_o heaven_n that_o they_o may_v set_v themselves_o about_o it_o here_o he_o come_v without_o if_n and_o and_n he_o set_v it_o down_o resolute_o and_o positive_o brethren_n this_o i_o say_v or_o this_o you_o must_v do_v this_o be_v one_o thing_n that_o i_o may_v note_v second_o i_o may_v note_v 2._o the_o compellation_n or_o term_v that_o he_o give_v they_o brethren_n in_o which_o note_v who_o they_o be_v to_o who_o saint_n paul_n give_v the_o exhortation_n and_o it_o seem_v to_o i_o as_o if_o the_o apostle_n shall_v say_v i_o be_o put_v you_o now_o upon_o a_o duty_n that_o if_o i_o can_v not_o give_v you_o the_o term_n brethren_n i_o shall_v hope_v to_o prevail_v little_a with_o you_o to_o come_v and_o tell_v a_o young_a gallant_a that_o be_v in_o the_o midst_n of_o his_o ruff_n and_o his_o jollity_n and_o all_o pleasure_n the_o fashion_n of_o this_o world_n pass_v away_o and_o i_o will_v have_v you_o use_v these_o thing_n as_o if_o you_o use_v they_o not_o i_o know_v he_o will_v not_o receive_v it_o or_o to_o come_v to_o a_o old_a soak_a worldling_n who_o mammon_n and_o penny_n be_v his_o god_n who_o thought_n run_v altogether_o upon_o his_o wealth_n and_o to_o tell_v he_o that_o he_o shall_v use_v the_o world_n as_o if_o he_o use_v it_o not_o or_o to_o come_v to_o another_o that_o be_v new_o marry_v and_o it_o may_v be_v have_v make_v a_o goddess_n of_o his_o yokefellow_n for_o a_o while_n and_o tell_v he_o that_o he_o must_v be_v as_o if_o he_o be_v not_o marry_v i_o shall_v have_v little_a hope_n to_o prevail_v with_o these_o but_o you_o be_v brethren_n and_o because_o brethren_n you_o know_v the_o good_a thing_n of_o god_n you_o be_v acquaint_v with_o thing_n concern_v eternal_a happiness_n therefore_o as_o long_o as_o i_o can_v call_v you_o brethren_n i_o be_o bold_a to_o put_v you_o upon_o the_o duty_n so_o brethren_n this_o be_v my_o preface_n to_o you_o i_o shall_v anon_o speak_v to_o a_o point_n that_o i_o shall_v have_v little_a hope_n to_o prevail_v with_o many_o in_o the_o congregation_n when_o i_o come_v to_o speak_v of_o the_o immoderate_a use_n of_o the_o world_n and_o all_o the_o blessing_n in_o it_o it_o may_v be_v both_o your_o ear_n will_v be_v so_o stop_v against_o it_o but_o as_o many_o of_o you_o as_o be_v brethren_n that_o have_v give_v up_o yourselves_o to_o god_n and_o have_v take_v he_o for_o your_o portion_n and_o his_o word_n for_o your_o guide_n in_o all_o thing_n i_o hope_v you_o will_v bring_v willing_a and_o yield_v heart_n to_o resolve_v that_o what_o be_v deliver_v out_o of_o the_o word_n of_o god_n to_o embrace_v it_o and_o to_o endeavour_v it_o concern_v the_o course_n of_o your_o life_n and_o so_o this_o will_v suffice_v for_o the_o preface_n because_o as_o i_o say_v i_o will_v not_o be_v straighten_a now_o i_o come_v to_o the_o exhortation_n ehortation_n it_o remain_v that_o they_o that_o have_v wife_n be_v as_o if_o they_o have_v none_o etc._n etc._n first_o i_o will_v in_o brief_a open_a the_o word_n and_o then_o come_v to_o some_o matter_n of_o instruction_n i_o begin_v first_o with_o the_o ground_n of_o the_o exhortation_n it_o the_o time_n be_v short_a the_o word_n translate_v short_a signify_v in_o the_o original_n time_n cut_v off_o and_o so_o the_o apostle_n alude_v as_o the_o best_a expositor_n agree_v to_o seafayring-man_n that_o have_v almost_o do_v their_o voyage_n word_n and_o begin_v to_o strike_v sail_n and_o to_o fold_v they_o up_o together_o and_o be_v even_o put_v into_o the_o harbour_n and_o be_v go_v to_o unlade_v their_o good_n so_o faith_n the_o apostle_n the_o time_n be_v short_a as_o if_o he_o shall_v say_v if_o a_o company_n that_o be_v go_v out_o a_o long_a voyage_n shall_v strive_v who_o shall_v be_v master_n and_o who_o be_v masters-mate_n and_o who_o shall_v have_v this_o or_o that_o office_n in_o the_o ship_n i_o can_v not_o great_o blame_v they_o but_o when_o they_o be_v almost_o at_o home_n when_o they_o be_v within_o a_o flightshot_a of_o the_o shore_n when_o they_o begin_v to_o strike_v sail_n to_o take_v in_o all_o and_o to_o go_v themselves_o out_o of_o the_o ship_n then_o if_o they_o shall_v fall_v a_o quarrel_v for_o place_n and_o contend_v and_o use_v all_o the_o friend_n and_o mean_n they_o can_v make_v it_o be_v a_o ridiculous_a thing_n and_o folly_n so_o it_o be_v with_o we_o time_n be_v when_o the_o world_n be_v in_o beginning_n and_o then_o when_o a_o man_n come_v into_o the_o world_n he_o may_v say_v by_o the_o course_n of_o nature_n i_o have_v a_o matter_n of_o six_o or_o seven_o or_o eight_o or_o nine_o hundred_o year_n to_o go_v on_o in_o my_o pilgrimage_n before_o i_o shall_v end_v my_o voyage_n and_o then_o if_o a_o man_n shall_v bestow_v a_o little_a time_n to_o think_v with_o himself_o well_o if_o i_o can_v live_v but_o to_o see_v myself_o the_o father_n of_o a_o thousand_o child_n and_o may_v come_v to_o

our_o age_n so_o that_o as_o soon_o as_o we_o begin_v our_o voyage_n we_o be_v ready_a to_o strike_v sail_n present_o we_o have_v but_o a_o little_a time_n to_o continue_v and_o much_o work_n to_o
