the_o pharisee_n they_o that_o be_v whole_a need_v not_o a_o physician_n go_v and_o learn_v what_o this_o mean_v i_o will_v have_v mercy_n and_o not_o sacrifice_n where_o mercy_n be_v prefer_v to_o the_o rule_n of_o command_v duty_n under_o the_o law_n and_o doubtless_o also_o in_o our_o day_n to_o those_o gospel-duty_n which_o in_o the_o divine_a allegory_n be_v figure_v by_o sacrifice_n and_o

mercy_n and_o faith_n 9_o and_o now_o here_o to_o express_v my_o own_o doubt_n i_o fear_v lest_o some_o of_o we_o nay_o indeed_o all_o in_o some_o degree_n do_v even_o as_o the_o scribe_n do_v too_o slight_o pass_v over_o these_o more_o substantial_a part_n of_o holy_a duty_n and_o put_v too_o much_o weight_n upon_o a_o formal_a hear_n or_o read_v of_o the_o word_n and_o prayer_n oft_o i_o fear_v use_v more_o out_o of_o custom_n than_o a_o gracious_a sense_n of_o our_o own_o spiritual_a want_v as_o if_o in_o these_o the_o sinew_n of_o religion_n consist_v when_o indeed_o they_o be_v but_o

one_o day_n in_o seven_o in_o a_o solemn_a meeting_n together_o with_o the_o old_a leven_a of_o malice_n and_o lusting_n of_o the_o flesh_n in_o our_o heart_n but_o the_o great_a end_n of_o hear_v be_v first_o that_o we_o believe_v in_o the_o promise_n for_o faith_n come_v by_o hear_v another_o end_n of_o hear_v be_v that_o we_o may_v be_v instruct_v from_o the_o word_n in_o the_o virtue_n grace_n and_o duty_n god_n require_v at_o our_o hand_n which_o be_v love_n joy_n peace_n long-suffering_a gentleness_n goodness_n faith_n meekness_n temperance_n against_o which_o there_o be_v no_o law_n and_o again_o add_v to_o faith_n virtue_n to_o virtue_n knowledge_n to_o knowledge_n temperance_n patience_n goodness_n brotherly-kindness_n charity_n for_o if_o these_o thing_n abound_v they_o make_v that_o we_o shall_v neither_o be_v barren_a or_o unfruitful_a and_o to_o these_o we_o need_v not_o add_v humility_n and_o mercy_n because_o in_o they_o they_o be_v full_o complex_v so_o that_o we_o hear_v not_o that_o we_o may_v be_v present_a at_o the_o duty_n or_o as_o if_o in_o it_o the_o measure_n of_o our_o righteousness_n be_v fulfil_v but_o we_o hear_v that_o we_o may_v learn_v the_o promise_n and_o we_o learn_v they_o that_o we_o may_v believe_v and_o obtain_v faith_n which_o be_v a_o masterbuilder_n and_o also_o that_o we_o may_v know_v what_o those_o grace_n be_v in_o which_o

vile_a in_o its_o own_o eye_n and_o be_v so_o establish_v in_o promise_n and_o experience_n as_o steadfast_o and_o without_o waver_v it_o believe_v that_o christ_n be_v able_a to_o save_v to_o the_o
