bless_a be_v the_o dead_a that_o dye_n in_o the_o lord_n and_o precious_a in_o the_o sight_n of_o the_o lord_n be_v the_o death_n of_o his_o 15._o revel_v 14._o 13._o psa_fw-la 116._o 15._o saint_n

a_o judgement_n and_o punishment_n unto_o a_o people_n and_o therefore_o we_o shall_v not_o slight_o pass_v over_o their_o death_n but_o consider_v and_o lay_v such_o stroke_n of_o god_n to_o our_o

there_o be_v in_o ourselves_o which_o have_v contribute_v unto_o so_o great_a a_o loss_n for_o not_o only_a disease_n in_o a_o minister_n but_o also_o sin_n in_o a_o people_n may_v have_v a_o great_a hand_n to_o take_v away_o the_o life_n of_o their_o minister_n and_o therefore_o there_o be_v reason_n for_o we_o to_o reflect_v and_o search_v in_o every_o ordinary_a loss_n that_o befall_v we_o we_o shall_v search_v our_o heart_n and_o try_v our_o way_n and_o say_v why_o be_v this_o evil_n come_v upon_o we_o much_o more_o shall_v this_o be_v do_v when_o a_o spiritual_a loss_n befall_v we_o when_o
