for_o indeed_o his_o heart_n be_v in_o they_o for_o he_o find_v there_o be_v more_o of_o heaven_n in_o they_o than_o in_o other_o thing_n and_o in_o that_o regard_n the_o saint_n have_v their_o

thing_n but_o now_o a_o spiritual_a man_n be_v spiritual_a in_o earthly_a thing_n one_o of_o a_o spiritual_a mind_n be_v more_o heavenly_a and_o spiritual_a when_o he_o be_v about_o his_o call_n

of_o his_o heart_n be_v but_o earthly_a in_o spiritual_a performance_n the_o eight_o thing_n wherein_o we_o may_v find_v a_o earthly_a mind_a man_n be_v this_o that_o he_o pass_v through_o many_o and_o great_a difficulty_n in_o matter_n of_o the_o earth_n and_o they_o be_v very_o little_a to_o he_o and_o though_o he_o have_v a_o great_a deal_n of_o toil_n for_o the_o matter_n of_o the_o

another_o man_n will_v be_v very_o great_a he_o make_v of_o they_o as_o nothing_o and_o though_o there_o be_v much_o toil_n and_o labour_n yet_o he_o be_v not_o weary_a why_o because_o he_o be_v in_o his_o own_o element_n the_o fish_n be_v not_o weary_a with_o swim_v but_o a_o man_n be_v quick_o weary_a i_o but_o the_o fish_n be_v in_o its_o element_n and_o a_o man_n be_v not_o so_o i_o beseech_v you_o observe_v this_o when_o a_o man_n spirit_n be_v in_o this_o kind_n of_o temper_n let_v he_o but_o be_v busy_v about_o earthly_a thing_n wherein_o earthly_a advantage_n come_v in_o no_o

and_o the_o difficulty_n do_v discourage_v he_o and_o in_o spiritual_a thing_n oh_o how_o weary_a be_v they_o as_o they_o in_o the_o 1._o of_o micha_n 13._o they_o cry_v out_o what_o a_o weariness_n be_v it_o but_o in_o the_o business_n of_o the_o world_n they_o can_v follow_v it_o from_o morning_n to_o night_n they_o be_v never_o tire_v they_o can_v work_v as_o we_o say_v sometime_o of_o man_n like_o a_o horse_n and_o yet_o never_o out_o of_o breath_n oh_o i_o will_v but_o desire_v you_o try_v your_o heart_n once_o but_o to_o endeavour_v to_o spend_v one_o sabbath_n exct_o and_o see_v what_o a_o weariness_n that_o will_v be_v to_o you_o resolve_v but_o one_o sabbath_n to_o rise_v early_o in_o the_o morning_n &_o to_o have_v your_o thought_n spiritual_a &_o heavenly_a as_o much_o

that_o be_v their_o better_a part_n they_o be_v from_o heaven_n you_o know_v that_o when_o god_n make_v man_n he_o breathe_v into_o his_o nostril_n the_o breath_n of_o life_n the_o soul_n of_o man_n it_o be_v as_o it_o be_v the_o breath_n of_o god_n god_n do_v not_o say_v of_o man_n soul_n as_o of_o other_o creature_n let_v it_o be_v make_v let_v there_o be_v a_o soul_n in_o man_n body_n no_o but_o when_o he_o have_v form_v the_o body_n he_o breathe_v the_o soul_n into_o he_o it_o be_v to_o note_v that_o the_o soul_n of_o man_n have_v a_o more_o heavenly_a and_o divine_a original_n than_o any_o of_o the_o other_o creature_n that_o be_v here_o in_o this_o world_n and_o because_o the_o original_n it_o be_v so_o divine_a and_o heavenly_a therefore_o it_o be_v that_o when_o the_o soul_n be_v as_o it_o be_v its_o self_n be_v set_v at_o liberty_n it_o will_v be_v at_o its_o original_n indeed_o though_o man_n soul_n be_v of_o a_o divine_a and_o heavenly_a nature_n yea_o through_o the_o fall_n of_o man_n so_o it_o be_v that_o the_o soul_n of_o man_n be_v even_o almost_o turn_v to_o be_v flesh_n and_o so_o mingle_v with_o unclean_a drossy_a thing_n as_o if_o it_o have_v no_o such_o

for_o i_o say_v the_o soul_n of_o man_n through_o his_o fall_n the_o nature_n of_o it_o seem_v to_o be_v change_v it_o be_v at_o least_o depress_v down_o to_o such_o vile_a thing_n as_o if_o it_o never_o have_v such_o a_o divine_a and_o heavenly_a original_n but_o now_o when_o god_n work_v grace_n in_o the_o soul_n the_o soul_n of_o man_n begin_v to_o return_v to_o its_o self_n and_o to_o know_v its_o self_n and_o begin_v to_o return_v to_o its_o own_o nature_n that_o it_o have_v in_o its_o first_o creation_n and_o as_o soon_o as_o ever_o the_o soul_n begin_v to_o know_v its_o self_n it_o look_v then_o present_o at_o all_o these_o thing_n that_o be_v here_o below_o as_o vile_a thing_n in_o comparison_n as_o contemptible_a for_o indeed_o all_o these_o thing_n in_o this_o world_n be_v infinite_o beneath_o the_o soul_n of_o a_o man_n infinite_o that_o be_v in_o comparison_n we_o may_v even_o call_v it_o a_o infinite_a distance_n between_o man_n soul_n and_o all_o these_o

be_v some_o where_o else_o than_o where_o it_o be_v and_o will_v converse_v with_o those_o thing_n that_o be_v suitable_a to_o its_o original_n as_o it_o be_v with_o a_o man_n that_o have_v a_o
