man_n matthew_n 11.30_o that_o his_o yoke_n be_v easy_a and_o his_o burden_n light_n how_o be_v that_o true_a prover_n 3.17_o that_o all_o the_o way_n of_o wisdom_n be_v way_n of_o pleasure_n why_o promise_v you_o so_o much_o joy_n and_o peace_n in_o religion_n if_o there_o be_v so_o many_o cross_n follow_v it_o 1_o to_o this_o i_o answer_v first_o that_o the_o way_n of_o god_n be_v pleasant_a to_o any_o man_n that_o be_v right_a to_o one_o that_o be_v renew_v 1_o corinth_n 2.6_o we_o preach_v wisdom_n to_o they_o that_o be_v perfect_a that_o be_v to_o they_o that_o be_v upright_o so_o the_o way_n of_o god_n be_v pleasant_a to_o those_o that_o be_v upright_o and_o able_a to_o judge_v of_o they_o yet_o they_o be_v not_o so_o to_o other_o if_o i_o say_v that_o good_a meat_n and_o drink_n be_v pleasant_a it_o be_v true_a and_o you_o will_v all_o agree_v to_o it_o yet_o it_o be_v not_o so_o to_o a_o sick_a man_n so_o the_o light_n be_v very_o comfortable_a yet_o to_o sore_a eye_n it_o be_v burdensome_a so_o god_n way_n be_v pleasant_a yet_o to_o man_n have_v sore_a eye_n sick_a conscience_n and_o distemper_a affection_n they_o be_v difficult_a second_o god_n way_n be_v pleasant_a in_o themselves_o whereas_o other_o way_n be_v bitter_a god_n way_n bring_v pleasure_n and_o content_n they_o be_v pleasant_a in_o themselves_o therefore_o they_o be_v always_o so_o but_o

but_o a_o good_a conscience_n be_v a_o continual_a feast_n 15_o at_o all_o time_n god_n way_n be_v a_o burden_n and_o yoke_n to_o the_o flesh_n but_o to_o the_o spirit_n they_o be_v easy_a object_n but_o you_o will_v object_v if_o the_o way_n of_o god_n be_v difficult_a and_o full_a of_o cross_n it_o will_v discourage_v man_n to_o be_v religious_a how_o shall_v we_o run_v the_o way_n of_o god_n commandment_n with_o cheerfulness_n see_v they_o be_v so_o full_a of_o cross_n i_o answer_v that_o though_o the_o way_n of_o god_n be_v in_o themselves_o difficult_a yet_o they_o be_v easy_a to_o those_o that_o come_v after_o christ_n and_o that_o in_o these_o regard_n first_o every_o one_o that_o come_v to_o christ_n have_v another_o spirit_n and_o heart_n give_v he_o that_o make_v he_o with_o paul_n rom._n 7.22_o to_o delight_v in_o the_o law_n of_o god_n concern_v the_o inward_a man_n i_o will_v say_v of_o this_o as_o christ_n answer_v peter_n when_o as_o he_o ask_v he_o who_o shall_v be_v save_v if_o rich_a man_n be_v not_o this_o be_v impossible_a say_v christ_n with_o man_n but_o it_o be_v possible_a with_o god_n matth._n 19.26_o that_o be_v such_o a_o man_n can_v change_v his_o own_o heart_n but_o god_n can_v and_o then_o the_o way_n of_o god_n will_v be_v pleasant_a god_n can_v give_v you_o another_o nature_n and_o they_o will_v be_v easy_a second_o though_o they_o be_v difficult_a in_o the_o cross_n yet_o take_v altogether_o then_o there_o be_v pleasure_n take_v therefore_o the_o reward_n and_o gain_v with_o the_o labour_n the_o merchant_n endure_v much_o yet_o the_o hope_n of_o gain_n sweeten_v all_o a_o covetous_a man_n endure_v much_o labour_n have_v a_o hard_a lodging_n fast_v much_o but_o yet_o the_o gain_n contervaile_n all_o finis_fw-la

if_o you_o put_v all_o together_o if_o you_o look_v to_o the_o joy_n and_o reward_n as_o well_o as_o to_o the_o cross_n look_v on_o they_o as_o on_o weight_n in_o the_o balance_n if_o the_o weight_n be_v equal_a they_o stir_v not_o but_o put_v more_o weight_n into_o one_o scale_n than_o the_o other_o though_o it_o seem_v heavy_a before_o yet_o now_o it_o be_v bu●_n light_n so_o it_o be_v with_o these_o cross_n in_o themselves_o they_o be_v heavy_a but_o compare_v they_o with_o the_o issue_n the_o end_n and_o reward_n they_o be_v but_o light_n our_o affliction_n which_o be_v but_o for_o a_o

but_o have_v another_o strength_n more_o than_o our_o own_o it_o be_v easy_a it_o be_v hard_a for_o a_o child_n to_o go_v up_o the_o stair_n himself_o but_o if_o a_o strong_a man_n take_v he_o by_o the_o hand_n it_o be_v easy_a though_o these_o way_n be_v hard_a what_o if_o the_o holy_a ghost_n help_v you_o than_o they_o will_v be_v easy_a a_o man_n that_o look_v on_o a_o artificial_a thing_n he_o wonder_v at_o it_o and_o can_v tell_v how_o to_o turn_v his_o hand_n to_o do_v it_o but_o if_o he_o once_o get_v the_o art_n it_o be_v easy_a so_o it_o be_v with_o we_o before_o we_o be_v in_o

as_o we_o be_v persuade_v that_o there_o be_v no_o such_o thing_n in_o it_o as_o we_o think_v there_o be_v than_o it_o will_v be_v easy_a for_o to_o part_v with_o it_o no_o man_n grieve_v much_o that_o the_o flower_n that_o he_o have_v in_o his_o hand_n wither_v that_o he_o lose_v counter_n or_o shadow_n such_o be_v the_o thing_n that_o we_o see_v and_o have_v psal._n 39.6_o they_o be_v but_o as_o flower_n our_o eye_n be_v open_v to_o see_v that_o these_o thing_n be_v so_o it_o be_v a_o easy_a thing_n to_o disesteem_v they_o to_o one_o that_o be_v humble_v this_o be_v easy_a he_o that_o
