my_o behaviour_n here_o this_o short_a life_n have_v a_o influence_n upon_o the_o eternal_a one_o if_o i_o have_v live_v well_o and_o well_o use_v the_o talent_n i_o be_v entrust_v with_o here_o i_o shall_v enjoy_v better_o and_o more_o last_a good_a thing_n there_o i_o may_v just_o content_v myself_o to_o be_v deny_v any_o of_o these_o thing_n below_o if_o the_o wise_a disposer_n see_v fit_a to_o do_v so_o since_o better_a thing_n to_o full_a satisfaction_n be_v reserve_v for_o i_o but_o if_o i_o live_v wicked_o i_o must_v expect_v that_o alittle_o time_n will_v put_v a_o end_n for_o ever_o to_o all_o my_o present_a ease_n and_o prosperity_n i_o must_v part_v with_o all_o my_o love_a enjoyment_n and_o bid_v a_o farewell_n to_o all_o mirth_n and_o pleasure_n all_o my_o portion_n of_o good_a be_v in_o this_o world_n and_o i_o can_v enjoy_v it_o no_o long_o than_o while_o this_o short_a and_o transitory_a life_n last_v it_o be_v but_o a_o small_a portion_n of_o good_a then_o that_o fall_v to_o my_o share_n if_o this_o be_v all_o i_o must_v have_v and_o it_o be_v not_o worth_a the_o be_v bear_v to_o be_v expose_v to_o so_o many_o evil_n to_o bear_v so_o many_o affliction_n to_o feel_v the_o wracking_n of_o so_o many_o violent_a passion_n as_o this_o mortal_a life_n and_o vale_n of_o tear_n be_v acquaint_v with_o for_o the_o sake_n of_o enjoy_v so_o little_o good_a so_o short_a and_o small_a a_o felicity_n and_o beside_o my_o pleasant_a circumstance_n here_o will_v quick_o end_v in_o torment_n and_o misery_n that_o will_v continue_v for_o ever_o let_v we_o i_o say_v

to_o secure_v our_o happiness_n hereafter_o we_o must_v endeavour_v to_o make_v our_o peace_n with_o god_n to_o regain_v his_o favour_n by_o repent_v true_o of_o our_o former_a sin_n by_o steadfast_o

after_o holiness_n without_o which_o no_o man_n can_v see_v god_n no_o man_n can_v be_v admit_v into_o that_o presence_n of_o god_n which_o make_v heaven_n let_v we_o endeavour_v to_o grow_v reconcile_v to_o a_o very_a serious_a and_o religious_a life_n to_o become_v acquaint_v with_o and_o to_o relish_v the_o joy_n and_o pleasure_n of_o devotion_n and_o communion_n with_o god_n to_o
