three_o thing_n especial_o that_o a_o christian_n shall_v know_v his_o own_o misery_n god_n love_n his_o own_o thankful_a obedience_n his_o misery_n how_o just_a god_n love_v how_o free_a how_o undeserued_a his_o own_o thankfulness_n how_o due_a how_o necessary_a consideration_n of_o one_o successive_o beget_v the_o apprehension_n of_o all_o our_o misery_n show_v we_o his_o love_n his_o love_n call_v for_o our_o acknowledgement_n want_n make_v a_o bounty_n weighty_a if_o we_o think_v on_o our_o need_n we_o can_v but_o admire_v his_o mercy_n how_o dull_a be_v we_o if_o we_o shall_v not_o value_v the_o relief_n of_o our_o necessity_n he_o can_v but_o esteem_v the_o benefit_n that_o unexpected_o help_v he_o in_o his_o deep_a distress_n that_o love_n be_v most_o to_o be_v prize_v who_o only_a motive_n be_v goodness_n the_o thought_n of_o this_o will_v form_v a_o disposition_n grateful_a who_o can_v meditate_v so_o unbottomed_a a_o love_n and_o not_o study_v for_o a_o thankful_a demeanour_n his_o mind_n be_v cross_v to_o nature_n that_o requite_v not_o affection_n with_o gratitude_n all_o favour_n have_v this_o success_n if_o they_o light_v on_o good_a ground_n they_o bring_v forth_o thanks_n let_v i_o first_o think_v my_o misery_n without_o my_o saviour_n mercy_n next_o his_o mercy_n without_o my_o merit_n and_o from_o the_o meditation_n of_o these_o two_o my_o sincerer_n thanks_n will_v spring_v though_o i_o can_v conceive_v of_o the_o former_a as_o they_o be_v infinite_a and_o beyond_o my_o thought_n yet_o will_v i_o so_o ponder_v they_o as_o they_o may_v enkindle_v the_o fire_n of_o my_o unfeigned_a and_o zealous_a thanksgiving_n that_o time_n be_v well_o spend_v wherein_o we_o study_v thankfulness_n lxxviii_o though_o the_o fool_n of_o the_o world_n think_v outward_a beauty_n the_o only_a jewel_n that_o deserve_v wear_v yet_o the_o wise_a man_n count_v it_o but_o a_o accident_n that_o can_v neither_o add_v nor_o diminish_v to_o the_o worth_n of_o virtue_n as_o she_o be_v in_o herself_o so_o as_o he_o never_o esteem_v she_o more_o or_o less_o but_o as_o he_o find_v her_o accomplish_a with_o discretion_n honesty_n and_o good_a part_n if_o my_o friend_n be_v virtuous_a and_o nobly-minded_n my_o soul_n shall_v love_v he_o howsoever_o his_o body_n be_v frame_v and_o if_o beauty_n make_v he_o amiable_a i_o needs_o must_v like_v he_o much_o the_o better_o the_o sun_n be_v more_o glorious_a in_o a_o clear_a sky_n then_o when_o the_o horizon_n be_v cloud_v beauty_n be_v the_o wit_n of_o nature_n put_v into_o the_o frontispiece_n if_o there_o be_v any_o humane_a thing_n may_v teach_v faith_n reason_n this_o be_v it_o in_o other_o thing_n we_o imagine_v more_o than_o we_o see_v in_o this_o we_o see_v more_o than_o we_o can_v imagine_v i_o have_v see_v and_o yet_o not_o with_o a_o partial_a eye_n such_o feature_n &_o such_o mixture_n as_o i_o have_v think_v impossible_a for_o either_o nature_n to_o frame_v or_o art_n to_o counterfeit_v yet_o in_o the_o same_o face_n i_o have_v see_v that_o which_o have_v outgo_v they_o both_o the_o countenance_n oh_o if_o such_o glory_n can_v dwell_v with_o corruption_n what_o celestial_a excellency_n be_v in_o the_o saint_n above_o who_o will_v not_o gaze_v himself_o into_o admiration_n when_o he_o shall_v see_v so_o rich_a a_o treasure_n in_o so_o pure_a a_o cabinet_n unmatched_a virtue_n in_o matchless_a beauty_n but_o if_o my_o friend_n body_n have_v more_o comeliness_n than_o his_o soul_n goodness_n i_o like_v he_o the_o worse_a for_o be_v but_o outward_o fair_a wickedness_n in_o beauty_n be_v a_o traitor_n of_o the_o bedchamber_n poison_n in_o sweet_a meat_n a_o vicious_a soul_n in_o a_o beautiful_a body_n i_o account_v as_o a_o jesuite_n in_o the_o robe_n of_o a_o courtier_n or_o somewhat_o more_o fit_o a_o papist_n that_o will_v go_v to_o church_n lxxix_o as_o i_o think_v there_o be_v many_o worse_o than_o they_o seem_v so_o i_o suppose_v there_o be_v some_o better_o than_o they_o show_v and_o these_o be_v like_o the_o grow_a chestnut_n that_o keep_v a_o sweet_a &_o nutrimentall_a kernel_n include_v in_o a_o rough_a and_o pricke_o husk_n the_o other_o as_o the_o peach_n hold_v a_o rugged_a and_o craggy_a stone_n under_o the_o cover_n of_o a_o velvet_n coat_n i_o will_v not_o deceive_v a_o good_a man_n either_o way_n both_o offer_v a_o wrong_n to_o virtue_n the_o one_o show_v she_o worse_o than_o she_o be_v dull_v her_o beauty_n with_o dim_a colour_n and_o present_v she_o with_o a_o hard_a favour_n than_o her_o own_o the_o other_o do_v varnish_v over_o the_o rottenness_n of_o vice_n and_o make_v goodness_n but_o the_o vizor_n for_o hypocrisy_n either_o be_v condemnable_a paint_v the_o face_n be_v not_o much_o worse_o then_o wilful_a soil_v it_o he_o be_v as_o well_o a_o murderer_n that_o accuse_v himself_o false_o as_o he_o that_o do_v the_o act_n and_o deny_v it_o one_o will_v obscure_v goodness_n with_o vice_n the_o other_o will_v palliate_v vice_n with_o goodness_n fraud_n be_v in_o both_o and_o i_o be_o sure_a no_o plea_n can_v make_v deceit_n allowable_a i_o will_v therefore_o strive_v to_o avoid_v both_o and_o with_o chrysostom_n either_o seem_v as_o i_o be_o or_o be_v as_o i_o seem_v but_o if_o i_o shall_v err_v on_o one_o side_n i_o have_v rather_o resemble_v a_o plain_a countryman_n that_o go_v in_o russet_a and_o be_v rich_a in_o revenue_n then_o a_o riotous_a courtier_n that_o wear_v glorious_a apparel_n without_o money_n in_o his_o purse_n lxxx_o a_o christian_n voyage_n to_o

but_o if_o he_o leave_v there_o god_n understand_v not_o such_o abrupt_a speech_n sorrow_n alone_o can_v expiate_v a_o pirate_n robbery_n he_o must_v both_o leave_v his_o theft_n and_o serve_v his_o

that_o be_v as_o his_o colon_n and_o carry_v he_o half_a way_n to_o heaven_n yet_o here_o also_o be_v the_o clause_n unperfect_a unless_o he_o go_v on_o to_o the_o practice_n of_o righteousness_n which_o as_o a_o period_n knit_v up_o all_o and_o make_v the_o sentence_n full_a return_v and_o penitence_n be_v not_o sufficient_a for_o he_o that_o have_v flee_v from_o his_o sovereign_n banner_n he_o must_v first_o do_v some_o valiant_a act_n before_o by_o the_o law_n of_o arm_n he_o can_v be_v restore_v to_o his_o former_a bear_n i_o will_v not_o content_v myself_o with_o a_o comma_n
