import_v 1._o a_o great_a sense_n that_o there_o be_v no_o true_a satisfaction_n either_o in_o sin_n or_o in_o a_o worldly_a carnal_a life_n this_o we_o must_v necessary_o suppose_v for_o how_o shall_v a_o man_n hunger_n or_o thirst_n after_o righteousness_n except_o he_o be_v sensible_a that_o here_o be_v not_o his_o rest_n neither_o in_o sin_n nor_o in_o the_o contentment_n of_o this_o present_a world_n these_o be_v the_o grand_a impediment_n of_o that_o righteousness_n that_o be_v the_o reason_n why_o man_n who_o place_n their_o chief_a happiness_n in_o sublunary_a enjoyment_n have_v nothing_o of_o this_o hunger_n and_o thirst_n after_o righteousness_n till_o they_o become_v sensible_a of_o the_o vanity_n of_o this_o world_n and_o the_o danger_n of_o a_o sinful_a life_n their_o appetite_n after_o righteousness_n be_v insignificant_a nor_o can_v their_o feeble_a wish_n be_v call_v so_o but_o when_o they_o have_v a_o thorough_a view_n of_o the_o rottenness_n of_o the_o bottom_n they_o have_v sail_v in_o then_o they_o affect_v and_o desire_v this_o plank_n to_o swim_v out_o of_o the_o gulf_n of_o perdition_n 2._o it_o import_v a_o high_a esteem_n of_o this_o righteousness_n and_o goodness_n and_o without_o it_o it_o be_v impossible_a to_o hunger_n and_o thirst_n after_o it_o for_o man_n do_v not_o use_v to_o long_o after_o thing_n they_o do_v not_o

he_o so_o must_v he_o the_o righteousness_n we_o speak_v of_o that_o do_v true_o hunger_n and_o thirst_n after_o it_o if_o he_o do_v not_o prize_v it_o above_o gold_n and_o silver_n and_o pearl_n and_o precious_a stone_n his_o hunger_n and_o thirst_n after_o it_o can_v be_v considerable_a but_o when_o he_o come_v to_o count_v all_o thing_n dross_n and_o dung_n in_o comparison_n of_o it_o than_o he_o be_v most_o likely_a to_o hunger_n and_o thirst_n after_o it_o 3._o it_o import_v a_o very_a earnest_n desire_v to_o be_v righteous_a and_o good_a in_o all_o point_n such_o a_o desire_n as_o man_n very_o hungry_a and_o thirsty_a have_v after_o meat_n and_o drink_n and_o that_o we_o know_v be_v not_o very_o faint_a the_o scripture_n therefore_o express_v by_o a_o very_a emphatical_a

but_o be_v chase_v and_o hunt_v his_o desire_n after_o the_o cool_a stream_n become_v more_o earnest_n and_o vehement_a and_o such_o must_v be_v this_o desire_n after_o righteousness_n even_o as_o it_o be_v psal._n lxiii_o 1._o my_o soul_n thirst_v my_o flesh_n belong_v for_o thou_o in_o a_o dry_a land_n i._n e._n as_o a_o man_n or_o traveller_n spend_v with_o the_o labour_n or_o the_o trouble_n of_o his_o journey_n in_o a_o dry_a land_n where_o no_o water_n be_v these_o expression_n import_v a_o very_a strong_a desire_n a_o desire_n which_o have_v no_o reserve_v no_o sinister_a end_n and_o design_n but_o be_v sincere_a and_o lively_a and_o vigorous_a and_o importunate_a which_o will_v not_o be_v deny_v and_o prevail_v by_o its_o fervour_n and_o importunity_n 4._o it_o import_v actual_a and_o earnest_a endeavour_n to_o be_v true_o good_a and_o righteous_a by_o a_o diligent_a and_o conscientious_a use_n of_o the_o proper_a mean_n we_o do_v not_o look_v upon_o a_o man_n that_o talk_v of_o have_v a_o thing_n or_o pretend_v his_o heart_n set_v upon_o it_o as_o be_v in_o good_a earnest_n if_o his_o endeavour_n be_v not_o suitable_a to_o his_o desire_n the_o merchant_n or_o trades-man_n that_o desire_v to_o be_v rich_a we_o know_v what_o pain_n they_o take_v nay_o the_o day-labourer_n that_o desire_v a_o livelihood_n so_o he_o that_o hunger_n and_o thirst_v after_o righteousness_n indeed_o will_v inquire_v and_o hear_v and_o read_v the_o word_n of_o god_n and_o ponder_v it_o in_o his_o mind_n and_o pray_v hard_a and_o deny_v himself_o and_o break_v off_o from_o loose_a company_n and_o meditate_v and_o think_v and_o shun_v occasion_n of_o evil_a and_o follow_v god_n as_o the_o man_n in_o the_o gospel_n do_v his_o neighbour_n at_o midnight_n for_o three_o loaf_n and_o will_v leave_v no_o stone_n unturned_a to_o compass_v this_o goodness_n and_o righteousness_n as_o a_o man_n who_o be_v very_o hungry_a or_o thirsty_a do_v not_o sit_v still_o but_o bestir_v himself_o to_o get_v food_n and_o drink_v which_o he_o stand_v in_o need_n of_o 5._o it_o import_v a_o progress_n in_o this_o hunger_n and_o thirst_n and_o when_o we_o be_v arrive_v to_o such_o a_o degree_n of_o righteousness_n then_o to_o hunger_n and_o thirst_n and_o endeavour_v after_o high_a degree_n of_o it_o to_o this_o purpose_n be_v those_o frequent_a
