this_o be_v not_o that_o stand_v still_o here_o that_o we_o shall_v stand_v still_o and_o do_v nothing_o and_o be_v sluggard_n no_o but_o the_o stand_v still_o here_o be_v after_o we_o have_v go_v

further_o be_v what_o god_n will_v have_v we_o to_o do_v to_o stand_v still_o to_o hearken_v to_o what_o the_o lord_n will_v have_v we_o to_o do_v with_o heart_n resign_v up_o to_o he_o and_o

now_o exercise_v faith_n first_o 1._o to_o quiet_v my_o heart_n to_o get_v out_o of_o my_o spirit_n those_o distract_n thought_n of_o that_o hurry_n and_o tumult_n that_o there_o be_v in_o the_o heart_n and_o to_o get_v all_o silence_v all_o murmur_n all_o distraction_n all_o giddiness_n of_o spirit_n and_o upproar_n that_o many_o time_n be_v in_o the_o heart_n of_o man_n and_o woman_n in_o time_n of_o danger_n so_o by_o faith_n i_o come_v to_o quiet_a these_o and_o to_o get_v my_o heart_n to_o be_v still_o to_o be_v still_o within_o i_o be_v still_o o_o my_o soul_n and_o therefore_o the_o scripture_n express_v the_o wait_a upon_o god_n out_o of_o faith_n by_o a_o word_n of_o silence_n in_o the_o 62._o psalm_n at_o the_o beginning_n and_o verse_n 5._o my_o soul_n wait_v upon_o god_n it_o be_v silence_v so_o the_o hebrew_n word_n signify_v it_o signify_v a_o silence_n in_o god_n there_o be_v many_o time_n in_o the_o heart_n of_o man_n and_o woman_n when_o they_o apprehend_v any_o danger_n a_o great_a deal_n of_o hurry_v and_o noise_n in_o their_o heart_n all_o be_v in_o a_o combustion_n in_o their_o heart_n it_o be_v a_o grievous_a thing_n to_o see_v a_o city_n all_o in_o a_o combustion_n and_o in_o a_o tumult_n there_o be_v many_o man_n and_o woman_n heart_n in_o as_o great_a a_o tumult_n upon_o apprehension_n of_o danger_n as_o many_o time_n a_o whole_a city_n be_v there_o be_v a_o rise_n in_o their_o heart_n and_o a_o mighty_a noise_n there_o sometime_o they_o keep_v it_o may_v be_v in_o private_a and_o public_a exigency_n their_o tongue_n silent_a but_o their_o heart_n boil_v within_o they_o but_o your_o heart_n must_v be_v silent_a you_o must_v cry_v to_o your_o heart_n be_v silent_a there_o my_o heart_n be_v now_o in_o a_o mutiny_n and_o a_o

there_o shall_v be_v a_o keep_v our_o station_n till_o god_n call_v we_o out_o not_o to_o run_v up_o and_o down_o this_o way_n and_o that_o way_n and_o to_o think_v of_o nothing_o but_o of_o shift_a course_n to_o shift_v for_o ourselves_o as_o in_o time_n of_o danger_n i_o very_o believe_v if_o we_o can_v look_v into_o the_o thought_n of_o many_o man_n and_o woman_n they_o scarce_o have_v any_o think_v but_o mere_o of_o shift_v their_o place_n or_o house_n they_o think_v to_o shift_v for_o themselves_o now_o we_o shall_v not_o busy_v our_o thought_n so_o much_o about_o shift_v as_o about_o quiet_v our_o heart_n in_o believe_a for_o my_o brethren_n in_o time_n of_o extremity_n of_o danger_n god_n call_v for_o courage_n more_o than_o discretion_n though_o it_o be_v true_a discretion_n be_v not_o exclude_v yet_o that_o be_v not_o that_o explicit_a and_o special_a work_n that_o be_v call_v for_o in_o time_n of_o danger_n i_o mean_v discretion_n to_o shift_v for_o yourselves_o but_o discretion_n so_o far_o as_o may_v improve_v courage_n the_o main_a work_n that_o god_n now_o call_v for_o at_o this_o time_n it_o be_v courage_n and_o discretion_n and_o prudence_n only_o so_o far_o as_o to_o manage_v courage_n and_o to_o drive_v it_o on_o further_a and_o to_o improve_v it_o not_o to_o abate_v it_o that_o be_v not_o the_o discretion_n certain_o that_o now_o be_v call_v for_o but_o to_o keep_v our_o station_n quest_n but_o you_o will_v say_v in_o time_n of_o danger_n may_v we_o not_o fly_v must_v man_n keep_v their_o station_n be_v it_o not_o lawful_a to_o avoid_v danger_n and_o to_o fly_v then_o we_o shall_v accuse_v many_o of_o our_o brethren_n that_o heretofore_o have_v flee_v in_o time_n of_o danger_n resp_n my_o brethren_n you_o be_v to_o know_v that_o the_o case_n
