the_o world_n so_o that_o a_o man_n lose_v himself_o and_o his_o soul_n while_o he_o lay_v out_o his_o thought_n love_n desire_v and_o expend_v his_o soul_n upon_o they_o because_o they_o be_v only_o for_o the_o soul_n to_o serve_v itself_o in_o some_o small_a measure_n upon_o for_o its_o high_a end_n now_o but_o if_o it_o centre_n upon_o they_o it_o be_v lose_v for_o they_o be_v not_o worth_a that_o in_o any_o degree_n 2._o if_o after_o this_o enjoyment_n of_o the_o world_n then_o suppose_v the_o long_a time_n that_o can_v in_o any_o reason_n example_n or_o precedent_n be_v suppose_v there_o come_v on_o the_o eternal_a duration_n of_o a_o immortal_a spirit_n a_o self_n in_o a_o everlasting_a state_n a_o man_n can_v be_v profit_v that_o enjoy_v the_o whole_a world_n and_o lose_v his_o soul_n for_o if_o a_o soul_n be_v immortal_a and_o for_o ever_o than_o the_o state_n of_o that_o soul_n and_o spirit_n must_v be_v immortal_a and_o for_o ever_o also_o and_o than_o if_o the_o

only_o the_o world_n there_o can_v be_v no_o profit_n to_o a_o man_n but_o extreme_a loss_n by_o gain_v the_o world_n because_o he_o lose_v his_o soul_n for_o it_o for_o if_o this_o soul_n be_v lose_v notwithstanding_o all_o the_o world_n can_v do_v to_o help_v it_o it_o be_v all_o one_o to_o the_o man_n whether_o he_o have_v the_o world_n or_o have_v it_o not_o for_o a_o soul_n lose_v be_v for_o ever_o lose_v or_o else_o it_o be_v not_o lose_v at_o all_o and_o if_o the_o world_n can_v redeem_v that_o loss_n what_o be_v a_o man_n the_o better_a for_o the_o world_n it_o be_v still_o the_o

but_o for_o a_o hour_n a_o day_n a_o minute_n will_v not_o a_o child_n say_v to_o a_o parent_n that_o shall_v make_v provision_n for_o it_o but_o for_o a_o day_n a_o month_n a_o year_n that_o we_o may_v suppose_v in_o a_o course_n of_o nature_n and_o common_a providence_n may_v live_v many_o year_n be_v this_o the_o love_n you_o have_v for_o i_o to_o make_v provision_n but_o for_o so_o short_a a_o time_n oh_o with_o how_o much_o great_a reason_n force_n and_o sting_n will_v our_o soul_n say_v to_o we_o how_o be_v it_o that_o when_o you_o understand_v i_o be_o prepare_v for_o everlasting_a you_o have_v only_o lay_v up_o for_o i_o for_o the_o short_a time_n of_o this_o life_n for_o who_o shall_v those_o thing_n be_v you_o have_v provide_v you_o know_v they_o can_v be_v i_o i_o can_v

notwithstanding_o they_o oh_o let_v we_o therefore_o always_o remember_v the_o word_n scripture_n sound_v so_o often_o in_o our_o ear_n everlasting_a eternal_a for_o ever_o always_o to_o come_v as_o

every_o one_o of_o we_o both_o speak_v and_o hear_v can_v deep_o consider_v this_o i_o be_o to_o be_v for_o ever_o and_o therefore_o what_o do_v you_o speak_v to_o i_o of_o thing_n that_o be_v to_o
