shall_v wait_v and_o beg_v and_o cry_v henceforth_o after_o christ_n or_o that_o he_o shall_v after_o you_o who_o will_v be_v the_o loser_n who_o will_v have_v the_o worst_a of_o it_o if_o you_o

alas_o what_o will_v you_o do_v when_o you_o be_v undo_v 5._o consider_v what_o if_o you_o be_v certain_o persuade_v that_o the_o next_o time_n you_o slight_v grace_n entreat_v and_o close_v with_o sin_n tempt_v that_o god_n will_v withdraw_v his_o mercy_n and_o clap_v damnation_n on_o thou_o and_o never_o look_v on_o thou_o more_o for_o good_a will_v you_o then_o slight_a what_o now_o be_v offer_v 6._o consider_v if_o this_o be_v the_o last_o day_n you_o have_v to_o live_v the_o last_o sermon_n you_o have_v to_o hear_v and_o short_o to_o go_v to_o the_o other_o world_n will_v you_o put_v off_o the_o mercy_n of_o this_o day_n how_o can_v you_o tell_v but_o that_o to_o morrow_n or_o very_o short_o you_o must_v be_v send_v for_o to_o the_o other_o world_n arrest_v by_o death_n that_o spare_v no_o body_n why_o then_o precious_a soul_n be_v persuade_v now_o once_o for_o all_o to_o lay_v to_o heart_n this_o day_n the_o thing_n that_o belong_v to_o your_o peace_n before_o they_o be_v hide_v from_o your_o eye_n the_o lord_n set_v it_o home_o that_o you_o may_v be_v wise_a and_o happy_a oh_o what_o will_v it_o profit_v you_o to_o gain_v the_o whole_a world_n and_o lose_v
