use_v 3._o three_o we_o be_v here_o likewise_o teach_v to_o bewail_v the_o great_a loss_n of_o our_o god_n sin_n to_o bewail_v our_o loss_n of_o god_n by_o sin_n and_o to_o lament_v the_o want_n of_o his_o gracious_a presence_n this_o be_v the_o practice_n of_o every_o godly_a man_n for_o if_o he_o think_v it_o the_o great_a gain_n to_o obtain_v the_o favour_n of_o god_n than_o he_o must_v needs_o

and_o sorrow_n in_o the_o absence_n of_o god_n and_o compel_v thou_o to_o seek_v he_o as_o the_o hart_n do_v the_o water_n say_v 143.6_o psal_n 143.6_o my_o sonle_fw-mi desire_v after_o thou_o as_o the_o hart_n after_o the_o water_n brook_n and_o as_o the_o thirsty_a land_n after_o rain_n reason_n 1_o the_o reason_n why_o godly_a man_n bewail_v the_o absence_n of_o god_n be_v special_o these_o two_o first_o they_o know_v what_o it_o be_v to_o want_n god_n by_o set_v a_o prize_n and_o worth_n on_o he_o while_o they_o have_v he_o present_v in_o their_o heart_n they_o know_v that_o when_o by_o sin_n we_o lose_v he_o the_o soul_n be_v dead_a grace_n be_v wither_v the_o conscience_n torment_v and_o heaven_n turn_v into_o hell_n they_o know_v that_o the_o world_n can_v be_v so_o miserable_a without_o a_o sun_n nor_o the_o body_n without_o breath_n as_o the_o soul_n without_o god_n the_o sun_n of_o his_o church_n and_o the_o soul_n of_o the_o soul_n of_o every_o true_a believer_n reason_n 2_o second_o if_o god_n depart_v from_o they_o for_o a_o time_n in_o displeasure_n through_o their_o fall_n into_o some_o sin_n and_o then_o leave_v a_o sense_n of_o his_o displeasure_n in_o their_o soul_n than_o their_o soul_n find_v such_o a_o want_n of_o he_o that_o they_o be_v not_o able_a to_o sustain_v themselves_o without_o a_o present_a possession_n in_o this_o case_n godless_a man_n be_v sore_o afflict_v will_v mourn_v for_o their_o want_n and_o therefore_o much_o more_o the_o godly_a but_o alas_o for_o all_o this_o with_o the_o most_o of_o we_o it_o be_v far_o otherwise_o we_o can_v easy_o bewail_v the_o loss_n of_o a_o sheep_n or_o a_o cow_n or_o a_o hog_n etc._n etc._n we_o will_v take_v on_o as_o a_o bear_v rob_v of_o her_o whelp_n and_o tell_v our_o neighbour_n our_o grief_n and_o the_o great_a loss_n we_o have_v sustain_v but_o we_o seldom_o or_o never_o make_v any_o moan_n that_o we_o have_v lose_v god_n favour_n because_o we_o want_v a_o sense_n and_o feel_n of_o his_o blessing_n in_o his_o mercy_n we_o seldom_o cry_v out_o in_o his_o absence_n 67.1_o psal_n 67.1_o lord_n lift_v up_o the_o light_n of_o thy_o countenance_n upon_o we_o neither_o do_v we_o complain_v 59.2_o isa_n 59.2_o that_o our_o iniquity_n have_v rear_v up_o a_o partition_n wall_n between_o god_n and_o we_o and_o so_o hide_v his_o face_n from_o we_o that_o he_o will_v not_o hear_v neither_o do_v we_o accuse_v ourselves_o as_o lose_v sheep_n verse_n psal_n 119._o last_o verse_n that_o have_v long_o go_v astray_o oh_o therefore_o let_v we_o flatter_v ourselves_o no_o more_o with_o those_o that_o pluck_v out_o the_o eye_n of_o knowledge_n itself_o 10.4.11_o psal_n 10.4.11_o tush_o god_n be_v go_v he_o hide_v his_o face_n and_o will_v never_o see_v but_o rather_o let_v we_o resolve_v to_o seek_v god_n when_o he_o be_v want_v and_o to_o mourn_v for_o the_o want_n let_v we_o not_o follow_v our_o sensuality_n too_o far_o nor_o buy_v voluptuousness_n with_o a_o price_n but_o say_v with_o the_o athenian_a orator_n when_o we_o hear_v how_o far_o god_n be_v from_o we_o by_o our_o pleasure_n peanitere_fw-la non_fw-la em●m_fw-la tanti_fw-la peanitere_fw-la i_o will_v not_o buy_v the_o seek_n of_o god_n by_o repentance_n at_o so_o high_a a_o rate_n use_v 4_o use_v 4._o last_o see_v by_o sin_n we_o loose_a god_n here_o again_o we_o be_v exhort_v when_o we_o possess_v he_o when_o we_o have_v find_v he_o he_o let_v we_o hold_v god_n fast_o when_o we_o have_v he_o when_o we_o possess_v to_o keep_v ourselves_o there_o and_o to_o hold_v he_o fast_o let_v thy_o eye_n be_v continual_o upon_o he_o and_o never_o suffer_v he_o to_o be_v out_o of_o thy_o sight_n 123.2_o psal_n 123.2_o behold_v as_o the_o eye_n of_o servant_n look_v unto_o the_o hand_n of_o their_o master_n and_o as_o the_o eye_n of_o a_o maiden_n unto_o the_o hand_n of_o her_o mistress_n so_o let_v our_o eye_n wait_v upon_o the_o lord_n our_o god_n as_o the_o child_n deal_v with_o his_o father_n he_o follow_v he_o up_o and_o down_o and_o dare_v not_o let_v he_o go_v out_o of_o his_o sight_n but_o hold_v hard_o on_o his_o skirt_n &_o keep_v he_o with_o he_o so_o deal_v thou_o with_o the_o lord_n turn_v thyself_o in_o every_o good_a action_n unto_o he_o and_o if_o thou_o have_v any_o fear_n of_o lose_v then_o sit_v the_o close_o and_o hold_v the_o fast_o ever_o remember_v that_o the_o second_o
