reflection_n of_o a_o good_a conscience_n have_v a_o mighty_a power_n both_o to_o correct_v and_o exalt_v a_o man_n natural_a temper_n those_o ardent_a breathe_n wherewith_o the_o pious_a soul_n be_v continual_o carry_v out_o towards_o god_n and_o goodness_n be_v to_o the_o body_n like_o so_o much_o fresh_a air_n and_o wholesome_a exercise_n they_o fan_v the_o blood_n and_o clarify_v the_o spirit_n and_o purge_v they_o from_o their_o feculency_n which_o will_v otherwise_o cloud_v the_o understanding_n and_o make_v we_o dull_a and_o listless_a therefore_o sir_n i_o beg_v of_o you_o as_o you_o tender_v your_o health_n pare_v away_o all_o your_o superfluous_a thought_n and_o let_v a_o lumpish_a spirit_n be_v a_o stranger_n to_o your_o habitation_n because_o it_o be_v a_o scandal_n to_o

to_o hang_v no_o long_o upon_o the_o willow_n but_o contemplate_v the_o song_n of_o moses_n and_o of_o the_o lamb_n which_o will_v elevate_v all_o the_o power_n of_o nature_n when_o man_n give_v way_n

sick_a eager_a desire_n after_o terrene_a enjoyment_n as_o they_o drown_v man_n soul_n in_o perdition_n so_o they_o pierce_v man_n body_n with_o many_o sorrow_n when_o swarm_n of_o perplex_v care_n hive_n in_o man_n head_n they_o yield_v more_o sting_n than_o honey_n there_o be_v many_o in_o the_o world_n who_o stab_v themselves_o with_o pine_a grief_n and_o poison_v themselves_o with_o

when_o the_o mind_n be_v keep_v in_o a_o equal_a calm_a serene_a temper_n the_o body_n be_v sensible_a of_o the_o conveniency_n a_o cheerful_a spirit_n do_v good_a like_o a_o medicine_n but_o on_o the_o contrary_a a_o sorrowful_a spirit_n dry_v the_o bone_n the_o way_n to_o pull_v out_o the_o thorn_n in_o the_o flesh_n be_v to_o heal_v the_o wound_n in_o the_o spirit_n if_o man_n do_v sigh_v for_o nothing_o but_o sin_n and_o set_v their_o affection_n on_o he_o who_o best_o deserve_v their_o love_n and_o make_v use_n of_o the_o remedy_n provide_v for_o all_o the_o evil_n of_o the_o world_n viz._n a_o content_v mind_n their_o health_n will_v be_v better_o secure_v but_o when_o any_o create_v good_a lie_v too_o near_o the_o heart_n or_o the_o cloud_n of_o melancholy_a eclipse_n the_o

we_o expose_v ourselves_o to_o the_o power_n of_o the_o prince_n of_o darkness_n who_o love_v to_o inhabit_v sad_a soul_n who_o love_v sunless_a day_n spend_v not_o your_o life_n like_o a_o man_n
