that_o be_v the_o thing_n i_o exhort_v you_o to_o labour_v for_o o_o labour_n to_o endear_v christ_n to_o your_o soul_n now_o if_o any_o will_v know_v how_o to_o do_v this_o two_o direction_n i_o

there_o be_v any_o man_n to_o who_o christ_n be_v not_o precious_a sure_o it_o be_v upon_o one_o or_o both_o of_o these_o point_n either_o first_o because_o he_o be_v not_o sufficient_o inform_v of_o the_o due_a worth_n of_o christ_n or_o else_o second_o because_o he_o be_v not_o true_o sensible_a of_o the_o great_a need_n that_o he_o have_v of_o christ_n that_o therefore_o he_o may_v be_v precious_a unto_o you_o be_v much_o and_o oft_o upon_o these_o meditation_n first_o study_v the_o worth_n of_o christ_n consider_v the_o various_a excellency_n that_o with_o most_o illustrious_a beam_n do_v shine_v forth_o in_o he_o and_o that_o whether_o you_o look_v upon_o he_o as_o god_n or_o as_o man_n or_o as_o meditator_n betwixt_o god_n and_o man._n look_v upon_o he_o first_o as_o

the_o insuperable_a patience_n of_o his_o death_n he_o be_v lead_v as_o a_o sheep_n to_o the_o slaughter_n and_o as_o a_o lamb_n be_v dumb_a before_o the_o shearer_n so_o open_v he_o not_o his_o mouth_n last_o how_o can_v you_o but_o admire_v the_o incomparable_a charity_n which_o he_o show_v both_o in_o his_o life_n and_o death_n in_o his_o life_n he_o go_v about_o do_v good_a and_o heal_v all_o manner_n of_o disease_n and_o sickness_n of_o the_o people_n in_o his_o death_n he_o pray_v to_o his_o father_n for_o pardon_n for_o his_o very_a crucifier_n second_o look_v upon_o he_o as_o mediator_n and_o act_v in_o all_o his_o several_a office_n and_o how_o can_v you_o but_o admire_v the_o excellency_n of_o his_o teach_n as_o a_o prophet_n gracious_a word_n proceed_v out_o of_o his_o mouth_n never_o man_n speak_v as_o he_o speak_v how_o can_v you_o but_o admire_v the_o prevalency_n of_o his_o sacrifice_n and_o intercession_n as_o a_o priest_n thereby_o he_o make_v satisfaction_n unto_o god_n for_o our_o sin_n and_o make_v our_o person_n acceptable_a unto_o god_n and_o how_o can_v you_o but_o admire_v the_o magnificency_n of_o his_o administration_n of_o the_o regal_a government_n as_o a_o king_n thereby_o he_o rescue_v we_o from_o the_o power_n malice_n and_o injury_n of_o all_o our_o enemy_n whether_o they_o be_v sin_n or_o satan_n death_n or_o grave_n world_n or_o hell_n and_o both_o at_o present_a translate_v we_o into_o a_o kingdom_n of_o grace_n and_o will_v hereafter_o estate_n we_o in_o a_o kingdom_n of_o glory_n last_o if_o you_o be_v able_a look_v upon_o he_o as_o god_n and_o how_o can_v you_o but_o admire_v the_o incomparable_a greatness_n of_o his_o power_n he_o be_v omnipotent_a nothing_o too_o hard_o for_o he_o he_o can_v do_v all_o thing_n how_o can_v you_o but_o admire_v the_o incomprehensible_a deepness_n of_o his_o wisdom_n he_o be_v omniscient_a his_o understanding_n it_o be_v infinite_a he_o know_v all_o thing_n and_o how_o can_v you_o but_o admire_v the_o unmeasurable_a largeness_n of_o his_o goodness_n he_o be_v omnibenificent_a good_a to_o all_o and_o his_o mercy_n be_v over_o all_o his_o work_n yea_o not_o a_o attribute_n of_o he_o but_o may_v be_v a_o subject_a for_o angel_n to_o contemplate_v upon_o and_o even_o they_o too_o will_v come_v short_a of_o comprehend_v the_o full_a of_o it_o and_o lose_v themselves_o at_o

you_o serve_v the_o jesus_n who_o you_o believe_v in_o the_o christ_n in_o who_o you_o put_v your_o trust_n be_v so_o glorious_a a_o god_n so_o gracious_a a_o man_n so_o efficacious_a a_o mediator_n betwixt_o god_n and_o man_n you_o will_v find_v your_o heart_n carry_v strong_o forth_o in_o high_a and_o lofty_a affection_n towards_o he_o so_o that_o his_o person_n will_v be_v dear_a his_o name_n
