the_o world_n have_v of_o what_o the_o prophet_n and_o apostle_n speak_v be_v a_o fleshly_a knowledge_n and_o the_o apostate_n from_o the_o life_n in_o which_o the_o prophet_n and_o apostle_n be_v have_v get_v their_o word_n the_o holy_a scripture_n in_o a_o form_n but_o not_o in_o their_o life_n nor_o spirit_n that_o give_v they_o forth_o and_o so_o they_o all_o lie_n in_o confusion_n and_o be_v make_v provision_n for_o the_o flesh_n to_o fulfil_v the_o lust_n thereof_o but_o not_o to_o fulfil_v the_o law_n and_o command_n of_o christ_n in_o his_o power_n and_o spirit_n for_o that_o they_o say_v they_o can_v do_v but_o to_o fulfil_v the_o lust_n of_o the_o flesh_n that_o they_o can_v do_v with_o delight_n now_o after_o i_o have_v receive_v that_o open_v from_o the_o lord_n that_o to_o be_v breed_v at_o oxford_n or_o cambridge_n be_v not_o sufficient_a to_o fit_v a_o man_n to_o be_v a_o minister_n of_o christ_n i_o regard_v the_o priest_n less_o and_o look_v more_o after_o the_o dissent_v people_n and_o among_o they_o i_o see_v there_o be_v some_o tenderness_n and_o many_o of_o they_o come_v afterward_o to_o be_v convince_v for_o they_o have_v some_o open_n but_o as_o i_o have_v forsake_v all_o the_o priest_n so_o i_o leave_v the_o separate_a preacher_n also_o and_o those_o call_v the_o most-experienced_n people_n for_o i_o see_v there_o be_v none_o among_o they_o all_o that_o can_v speak_v to_o my_o condition_n and_o when_o all_o my_o hope_n in_o they_o and_o in_o all_o man_n be_v go_v so_o that_o i_o have_v nothing_o outward_o to_o help_v i_o nor_o can_v

that_o speak_v of_o christ_n and_o of_o god_n yet_o i_o know_v he_o not_o but_o by_o revelation_n as_o he_o who_o have_v the_o key_n do_v open_a and_o as_o the_o father_n of_o life_n draw_v i_o to_o his_o son_n by_o his_o spirit_n and_o then_o the_o lord_n do_v gentle_o lead_v i_o along_o and_o do_v let_v i_o see_v his_o love_n which_o be_v endless_a and_o eternal_a and_o surpass_v all_o the_o knowledge_n that_o man_n have_v in_o the_o natural_a state_n or_o can_v get_v by_o history_n or_o book_n and_o that_o love_n do_v let_v i_o see_v myself_o as_o i_o be_v without_o he_o and_o i_o be_v

be_v afraid_a of_o all_o carnal_a talk_n and_o talker_n for_o i_o can_v see_v nothing_o but_o corruption_n and_o the_o life_n lie_v under_o the_o burden_n of_o corruption_n and_o when_o i_o myself_o

the_o deep_a misery_n and_o in_o the_o great_a sorrow_n and_o temptation_n that_o many_o time_n beset_v i_o the_o lord_n in_o his_o mercy_n do_v keep_v i_o and_o i_o find_v that_o there_o be_v two_o
