to_o the_o stump_n preach_v and_o pray_v never_o so_o much_o to_o the_o contrary_a and_o that_o even_o in_o the_o bowel_n of_o jesus_n christ_n as_o now_o i_o beseech_v you_o all_o all_o and_o every_o

that_o present_o you_o desire_v this_o repentance_n that_o be_v this_o sorrow_n good_a hope_n and_o newness_n of_o life_n the_o which_o that_o you_o may_v the_o rather_o attain_v and_o get_v to_o

will_v i_o go_v about_o now_o to_o show_v you_o how_o you_o may_v have_v your_o desire_n in_o this_o behalf_n and_o first_o concerning_o this_o part_n namely_o sorrow_n for_o our_o sin_n and_o hearty_o lament_v of_o the_o same_o for_o this_o if_o you_o desire_v the_o have_n of_o it_o you_o must_v beware_v that_o you_o think_v not_o that_o of_o yourselves_o or_o of_o you_o own_o free_a will_n by_o any_o mean_n you_o can_v get_v it_o you_o may_v easy_o deceive_v yourselves_o and_o mock_v yourselves_o think_v more_o of_o yourselves_o then_o be_v seemly_a all_o good_a thing_n and_o not_o piece_n of_o good_a thing_n but_o all_o good_a thing_n say_v st_n james_n come_v from_o god_n the_o father_n of_o light_n if_o therefore_o repentance_n be_v good_a as_o it_o be_v good_a than_o the_o part_n of_o it_o be_v good_a from_o god_n therefore_o do_v they_o come_v and_o not_o of_o our_o free_a will_n it_o be_v the_o lord_n that'mortifi_v that_o bring_v down_o that_o humble_v say_v the_o scripture_n in_o sundry_a place_n after_o thou_o have_v strike_v i_o say_v jeremy_n i_o be_v ashamed_a loe_o he_o say_v after_o thou_o have_v strike_v i_o and_o therefore_o pray_v he_o even_o in_o the_o last_o word_n almost_o he_o write_v turn_v we_o o_o lord_n and_o we_o shall_v be_v turn_v the_o which_o thing_n david_n use_v very_o often_o wherefore_o first_o of_o all_o if_o thou_o will_v have_v this_o part_n of_o repentance_n as_o for_o the_o whole_a because_o it_o be_v god_n gift_n so_o for_o this_o part_n go_v thou_o unto_o god_n and_o male_a some_o little_a prayer_n as_o thou_o can_v unto_o his_o mercy_n for_o the_o same_o in_o this_o or_o like_o sort_n merciful_a father_n of_o our_o saviour_n jesus_n christ_n because_o i_o have_v sin_v and_o do_v wicked_o yet_o through_o thy_o goodness_n have_v receive_v a_o desire_n of_o repentance_n whereto_o this_o thy_o long-sufferance_n do_v draw_v my_o hard_a heart_n i_o beseech_v thou_o for_o thy_o mercy_n sake_n in_o christ_n to_o work_v the_o same_o repentance_n in_o i_o and_o by_o the_o spirit_n power_n and_o grace_n so_o to_o humble_v mortify_v and_o fear_v my_o conscience_n for_o my_o fin_n that_o in_o thy_o good_a time_n thou_o may_v comfort_v and_o quicken_v i_o again_o through_o jesus_n christ_n thy_o dear_o belove_a son_n amen_n after_o this_o sort_n i_o say_v or_o otherwise_o as_o thou_o think_v good_a if_o thou_o will_v have_v this_o first_o part_n contrition_n or_o sorrow_n for_o thy_o fin_n do_v thou_o beg_v it_o of_o god_n through_o christ_n and_o when_o thou_o have_v ask_v it_o as_o i_o have_v labour_v to_o drive_v thou_o from_o trust_v in_o thyself_o so_o now_o i_o go_v about_o to_o move_v thou_o from_o flatter_v of_o thyself_o from_o sluggishness_n and_o negligence_n to_o be_v diligent_a to_o use_v these_o mean_n follow_v unto_o prayer_n which_o i_o will_v thou_o shall_v first_o use_v as_o thou_o can_v second_o get_v thou_o god_n law_n as_o a_o glass_n to_o look_v in_o for_o in_o it_o and_o by_o it_o come_v the_o true_a knowledge_n of_o sin_n without_o which_o knowledge_n there_o can_v be_v no_o sorrow_n for_o how_o can_v a_o man_n sorrow_n for_o his_o fin_n which_o know_v not_o his_o fin_n as_o when_o a_o man_n be_v sick_a the_o first_o step_n to_o health_n be_v to_o know_v his_o sickness_n even_o so_o to_o salvation_n the_o first_o step_n be_v to_o know_v thy_o damnation_n due_a for_o thy_o many_o sin_n the_o law_n of_o god_n therefore_o must_v be_v get_v and_o careful_o look_v in_o we_o must_v look_v in_o it_o spiritual_o and_o not_o carnal_o as_o the_o outward_a word_n or_o letter_n do_v declare_v and_o utter_v and_o so_o our_o saviour_n teach_v we_o in_o matthew_n expound_v the_o six_o and_o seven_o commandment_n not_o only_o after_o the_o outward_a deed_n but_o also_o after_o the_o heart_n make_v there_o the_o anger_n of_o the_o heart_n a_o kind_n of_o murder_n lust_a after_o another_o man_n wife_n a_o kind_n of_o adultery_n and_o this_o be_v one_o of_o the_o difference_n between_o god_n law_n and_o man_n law_n that_o of_o this_o man_n law_n i_o mean_v i_o be_o not_o condemnable_a so_o long_o as_o i_o observe_v outward_o the_o same_o but_o god_n law_n go_v to_o the_o root_n and_o to_o the_o heart_n condemn_v i_o for_o the_o inward_a motion_n although_o outward_o i_o live_v most_o holy_o as_o for_o example_n if_o i_o kill_v no_o man_n though_o in_o my_o heart_n i_o hate_v man_n law_n condemn_v i_o not_o but_o otherwise_o do_v god_n law_n and_o why_o for_o it_o see_v the_o root_n from_o whence_o the_o evil_a do_v spring_n if_o hatred_n be_v take_v out_o of_o the_o heart_n than_o loftiness_n in_o look_n detraction_n in_o tongue_n and_o murder_n by_o hand_n can_v never_o ensue_v if_o lust_a be_v out_o of_o the_o heart_n curiosity_n in_o countenance_n wantonness_n in_o word_n loathsome_a boldness_n in_o body_n will_v not_o appear_v in_o that_o therefore_o this_o outward_a evil_a spring_n out_o of_o the_o inward_a corruption_n 2._o see_v god_n law_n also_o be_v a_o law_n of_o liberty_n as_o say_v st_n james_n and_o spiritual_a as_o say_v st_n paul_n 7._o perfect_o and_o spiritual_o it_o be_v to_o be_v
