in_o the_o conclusion_n through_o the_o stubbornness_n of_o the_o heart_n of_o sinner_n that_o will_v prove_v the_o aggravation_n of_o their_o condemnation_n wherefore_o yet_o let_v i_o labour_v with_o your_o soul_n who_o know_v whether_o any_o of_o you_o shall_v hear_v i_o preach_v any_o one_o sermon_n more_o whether_o ever_o god_n will_v call_v after_o you_o any_o more_o to_o stop_v or_o

have_v to_o draw_v thy_o heart_n from_o the_o strength_n of_o all_o these_o truth_n deliver_v in_o these_o sermon_n sure_o it_o must_v be_v some_o mighty_a thing_n when_o such_o truth_n as_o these_o back_v with_o argument_n from_o scripture_n strength_n of_o reason_n as_o all_o these_o be_v can_v restrain_v thou_o sure_o it_o must_v be_v some_o wonderful_a thing_n that_o must_v over_o balance_v all_o these_o sermon_n and_o all_o these_o thing_n what_o have_v thou_o such_o a_o heart_n that_o be_v set_v upon_o any_o sinful_a way_n any_o secret_a haunt_n of_o sin_n that_o thou_o find_v such_o good_a in_o it_o that_o by_o it_o all_o these_o truth_n be_v over_o balance_v certain_o there_o be_v no_o such_o good_a in_o the_o world_n if_o all_o creature_n in_o the_o world_n shall_v join_v together_o to_o give_v some_o comfort_n to_o balance_v these_o truth_n deliver_v concern_v the_o evil_a of_o sin_n all_o the_o creature_n in_o heaven_n and_o earth_n can_v not_o give_v such_o thing_n as_o will_v balance_v it_o therefore_o certain_o
sea_n bring_v their_o name_n into_o disgrace_n lose_v such_o a_o friend_n be_v pinch_v with_o poverty_n and_o then_o come_v and_o lay_v all_o upon_o sin_n whereas_o it_o be_v the_o affliction_n that_o lie_v in_o the_o heart_n this_o pinch_v they_o most_o many_o man_n and_o woman_n account_v it_o a_o kind_n of_o shame_n to_o complain_v of_o affliction_n this_o they_o think_v a_o disgrace_n and_o therefore_o that_o they_o may_v not_o have_v the_o disgrace_n of_o complain_v of_o affliction_n they_o turn_v all_o upon_o sin_n and_o it_o be_v sin_n trouble_v they_o now_o i_o will_v find_v they_o out_o thus_o 1_o you_o shall_v find_v many_o that_o come_v and_o complain_v of_o sin_n who_o do_v they_o complain_v to_o to_o stranger_n that_o know_v little_a of_o they_o and_o their_o condition_n rather_o than_o to_o other_o that_o be_v acquaint_v with_o all_o their_o way_n and_o their_o whole-course_n though_o able_a to_o help_v they_o for_o there_o be_v a_o great_a deal_n of_o suspicion_n in_o that_o for_o certain_o if_o your_o heart_n be_v right_a you_o will_v make_v complaint_n to_o those_o that_o know_v most_o of_o your_o way_n and_o course_n but_o those_o that_o be_v stranger_n you_o can_v go_v and_o complain_v to_o in_o some_o general_a way_n and_o perhaps_o to_o some_o that_o may_v be_v some_o way_n able_a to_o help_v and_o relieve_v you_o in_o affliction_n but_o will_v not_o complain_v to_o those_o that_o may_v help_v you_o against_o sin_n if_o they_o be_v not_o able_a to_o help_v otherwise_o 2_o another_o be_v this_o those_o that_o make_v complaint_n of_o sin_n and_o indeed_o not_o true_a it_o be_v affliction_n not_o sin_n you_o may_v know_v it_o by_o this_o though_o they_o complain_v of_o sin_n it_o be_v in_o general_a term_n oh_o they_o be_v vile_a sinful_a creature_n but_o never_o come_v to_o rip_v up_o the_o secret_n of_o their_o heart_n to_o those_o that_o they_o complain_v unto_o but_o now_o any_o secret_a sin_n that_o may_v cause_v shame_n they_o be_v keep_v in_o and_o never_o open_v but_o that_o be_v their_o general_a complaint_n that_o they_o be_v vile_a sinful_a creature_n whereas_o if_o it_o be_v sin_n that_o lie_v upon_o thy_o heart_n thou_o will_v come_v and_o open_v all_o thy_o secret_a sin_n to_o those_o that_o be_v faithful_a and_o willing_a and_o able_a to_o help_v thou_o if_o thou_o judge_v they_o faithful_a if_o thou_o do_v not_o judge_v they_o so_o why_o complain_v thou_o to_o they_o if_o thou_o think_v they_o be_v thou_o will_v be_v willing_a to_o open_v all_o thy_o sin_n to_o they_o but_o if_o thou_o be_v all_o upon_o general_a term_n it_o be_v a_o dangerous_a sign_n it_o be_v affliction_n and_o not_o sin_n 3_o again_o many_o complain_v to_o other_o but_o very_o little_a between_o god_n and_o their_o own_o soul_n in_o secret_a their_o complaint_n be_v more_o large_a when_o they_o come_v to_o they_o than_o when_o they_o be_v between_o god_n and_o their_o own_o soul_n in_o their_o closet_n now_o if_o it_o be_v for_o thy_o sin_n thou_o complain_v then_o though_o thou_o do_v complain_v to_o they_o that_o through_o god_n blessing_n may_v help_v yet_o thy_o chief_a complaint_n will_v be_v to_o god_n at_o the_o throne_n of_o grace_n and_o there_o thou_o will_v pour_v forth_o thy_o soul_n in_o the_o bitterness_n of_o thy_o heart_n many_o come_v to_o the_o minister_n and_o complain_v that_o they_o be_v wretched_a sinner_n but_o scarce_o go_v to_o god_n in_o secret_a or_o content_v themselves_o with_o some_o prayer_n just_a as_o they_o be_v in_o the_o book_n or_o the_o like_a but_o never_o pour_v forth_o their_o soul_n in_o secret_a for_o sin_n this_o be_v another_o note_n that_o it_o be_v rather_o for_o affliction_n than_o for_o sin_n 4_o another_o note_n be_v this_o if_o it_o be_v for_o affliction_n more_o than_o for_o sin_n any_o one_o that_o have_v grief_n upon_o they_o according_a to_o that_o grief_n that_o be_v upon_o they_o they_o be_v ready_a to_o aggravate_v that_o grief_n as_o thus_o suppose_v a_o man_n or_o a_o woman_n trouble_v for_o the_o death_n of_o their_o father_n or_o husband_n or_o wife_n oh_o such_o a_o one_o dear_a friend_n be_v dead_a father_n dead_a or_o husband_n or_o wife_n be_v dead_a well_o they_o be_v mighty_o trouble_v and_o perplex_v for_o this_o now_o if_o any_o come_v and_o speak_v any_o thing_n to_o aggravate_v their_o sorrow_n they_o close_o with_o it_o present_o as_o thus_o you_o complain_v of_o sorrow_n for_o your_o father_n i_o he_o be_v a_o love_a father_n and_o they_o present_o close_a with_o it_o and_o this_o aggravate_v their_o sorrow_n and_o so_o you_o have_v lose_v your_o husband_n oh_o never_a woman_n lose_v so_o precious_a a_o husband_n as_o i_o so_o that_o which_o be_v speak_v to_o aggravate_v that_o which_o lie_v upon_o the_o spirit_n of_o man_n and_o woman_n they_o be_v ready_a to_o close_v withal_o so_o now_o if_o you_o will_v know_v what_o lie_v upon_o your_o spirit_n when_o man_n and_o woman_n be_v trouble_v for_o trial_n what_o they_o be_v trouble_v for_o here_o be_v the_o art_n of_o a_o minister_n or_o a_o christian_n to_o find_v out_o what_o lie_v upon_o the_o spirit_n of_o man_n or_o woman_n some_o say_v sin_n well_o but_o it_o may_v be_v it_o be_v not_o that_o how_o shall_v we_o find_v it_o out_o thus_o whatsoever_o lie_v upon_o the_o heart_n that_o trouble_v they_o they_o will_v be_v very_o willing_a to_o acknowledge_v any_o thing_n say_v to_o aggravate_v it_o that_o lie_v upon_o their_o spirit_n most_o if_o any_o come_v and_o tell_v they_o of_o the_o evil_a of_o sin_n and_o agrravate_v it_o and_o say_v this_o be_v a_o evil_a condition_n and_o you_o must_v be_v humble_v for_o it_o and_o thorough_o apply_v the_o word_n of_o god_n to_o they_o to_o show_v how_o deep_o they_o be_v to_o be_v humble_v and_o lay_v sin_n before_o they_o in_o its_o right_a colour_n if_o sin_n trouble_v they_o they_o join_v with_o it_o and_o say_v it_o be_v evil_a indeed_o the_o lord_n humble_v i_o and_o show_v i_o more_o of_o this_o evil_a of_o sin_n and_o they_o like_o that_o word_n of_o god_n that_o lay_v home_o the_o evil_a of_o sin_n most_o but_o if_o it_o be_v not_o sin_n that_o they_o be_v trouble_v for_o by_o these_o speaking_o against_o sin_n their_o heart_n be_v harden_v and_o their_o heart_n rise_v against_o the_o aggravation_n of_o sin_n but_o if_o it_o be_v affliction_n come_v and_o pity_n and_o condole_v they_o and_o say_v alas_o you_o have_v such_o sorrow_n and_o trouble_n and_o oh_o poor_a creature_n it_o be_v pity_n but_o some_o other_o shall_v help_v you_o i_o they_o take_v this_o and_o this_o aggravate_v their_o sorrow_n it_o be_v observable_a in_o david_n when_o he_o flee_v from_o absalon_n how_o ready_a he_o be_v to_o entertain_v any_o thing_n that_o may_v aggravate_v his_o sorrow_n when_o ziba_n come_v and_o accuse_v mephibosheth_n though_o it_o be_v very_o unlikely_a he_o present_o embrace_v it_o so_o when_o a_o man_n be_v under_o affliction_n he_o will_v ready_o hear_v and_o embrace_v what_o may_v aggravate_v it_o and_o a_o man_n under_o trouble_n for_o sin_n will_v ready_o embrace_v that_o which_o will_v aggravate_v his_o sin_n this_o be_v a_o excellent_a note_n to_o come_v to_o know_v where_o the_o burden_n pinch_v whether_o it_o be_v sin_n or_o affliction_n 5_o the_o last_o note_n to_o try_v whether_o sin_n or_o affliction_n trouble_v thou_o be_v this_o there_o be_v according_a to_o the_o trouble_n of_o the_o heart_n for_o sin_n a_o favorinesse_n of_o spirit_n to_o the_o contrary_a good_a thy_o heart_n will_v in_o some_o measure_n have_v a_o love_n to_o and_o a_o favour_n and_o relish_v of_o that_o spiritual_a grace_n contrary_a to_o that_o sin_n of_o thou_o that_o thou_o complain_v of_o but_o now_o you_o have_v many_o that_o complain_v of_o sin_n they_o say_v but_o yet_o their_o heart_n be_v still_o as_o unsavoury_a and_o they_o do_v no_o more_o relish_v spiritual_a and_o heavenly_a thing_n contrary_a to_o that_o sin_n that_o they_o complain_v of_o than_o ever_o they_o do_v before_o therefore_o the_o burden_n and_o weight_n lie_v not_o upon_o sin_n but_o affliction_n take_v heed_n examine_v thy_o own_o heart_n there_o be_v much_o deceitfulness_n in_o the_o spirit_n of_o man_n and_o woman_n thou_o take_v the_o name_n of_o god_n in_o vain_a when_o thou_o come_v and_o complain_v of_o sin_n and_o the_o truth_n be_v thy_o affliction_n be_v upon_o thou_o and_o if_o thy_o affliction_n be_v go_v thou_o be_v well_o enough_o perhaps_o thou_o be_v cross_v in_o thy_o family_n if_o that_o be_v take_v
