put_v into_o prison_n shall_v they_o then_o have_v answ._n a_o hundred_o fold_n in_o this_o life_n yes_o for_o their_o imprisonment_n be_v better_a than_o worldly_a man_n liberty_n it_o be_v say_v that_o when_o joseph_n be_v put_v into_o prison_n that_o the_o lord_n go_v in_o with_o he_o and_o be_v with_o he_o and_o therefore_o it_o be_v no_o prison_n for_o what_o be_v it_o that_o make_v it_o

of_o this_o match_n you_o will_v not_o any_o long_o stand_v out_o but_o if_o you_o will_v not_o believe_v for_o all_o that_o i_o have_v say_v we_o have_v no_o more_o to_o say_v to_o you_o in_o brief_a

live_v so_o content_o with_o so_o much_o outward_a ease_n it_o be_v no_o marvel_n i_o say_v for_o their_o father_n have_v give_v they_o their_o portion_n another_o impediment_n be_v when_o parent_n

shall_v stand_v to_o compare_v every_o particular_a service_n of_o each_o husband_n we_o shall_v find_v that_o our_o obedience_n to_o our_o right_a husband_n be_v more_o pleasant_a than_o that_o we_o have_v now_o choose_v nay_o we_o service_n shall_v find_v that_o the_o worst_a action_n that_o christ_n command_v be_v far_o more_o pleasant_a than_o the_o best_a of_o the_o other_o as_o take_v

have_v any_o experience_n in_o it_o know_v it_o to_o be_v true_a but_o when_o as_o thou_o yielde_v obedience_n to_o thy_o other_o husband_n even_o in_o the_o midst_n of_o thy_o carnal_a delight_n thy_o heart_n be_v sad_a there_o be_v a_o kind_n of_o perplexity_n go_v along_o with_o it_o this_o we_o shall_v find_v in_o all_o the_o action_n we_o do_v to_o this_o wrong_a husband_n a_o secret_a gripe_a and_o sting_v of_o conscience_n and_o beside_o this_o we_o shall_v at_o length_n be_v pay_v with_o death_n but_o in_o our_o obedience_n to_o our_o right_a husband_n it_o moreov_a and_o above_o our_o comfort_n in_o his_o service_n he_o will_v give_v we_o wage_n and_o reward_n eternal_a life_n and_o all_o the_o comfort_n appertain_v thereunto_o but_o in_o brief_a if_o you_o will_v not_o yield_v if_o you_o will_v not_o be_v rule_v god_n will_v do_v with_o you_o as_o parent_n do_v with_o rebellious_a child_n if_o they_o be_v stubborn_a and_o match_n against_o their_o will_n when_o as_o neither_o promise_n nor_o persuasion_n will_v do_v any_o good_a what_o will_v they_o do_v why_o they_o will_v disinherit_v they_o so_o if_o you_o will_v be_v stubborn_a and_o neither_o persuasion_n nor_o promise_n will_v do_v no_o good_a with_o you_o but_o notwithstanding_o all_o this_o you_o will_v not_o remove_v your_o affection_n from_o off_o your_o choice_n your_o father_n shall_v

you_o you_o shall_v keep_v they_o but_o you_o shall_v go_v to_o hell_n with_o they_o if_o you_o will_v not_o believe_v we_o we_o have_v no_o more_o to_o say_v to_o you_o you_o shall_v loose_v your_o birthright_n another_o impediment_n if_o so_o be_v we_o find_v we_o stand_v in_o yet_o need_n of_o a_o husband_n to_o pay_v our_o debt_n yet_o we_o be_v not_o dispose_v to_o marry_v yet_o but_o know_v if_o thou_o will_v not_o take_v the_o time_n before_o the_o time_n be_v past_a thou_o shall_v sit_v long_o enough_o without_o suitor_n christ_n he_o be_v a_o suitor_n by_o his_o spirit_n and_o we_o be_v his_o friend_n to_o persuade_v you_o to_o match_v with_o he_o now_o consider_v how_o that_o he_o only_o must_v persuade_v we_o may_v persuade_v long_o enough_o if_o no_o other_o do_v persuade_v you_o you_o will_v never_o be_v win_v but_o there_o be_v another_o the_o lord_n himself_o he_o be_v his_o own_o spokesman_n and_o must_v be_v or_o else_o you_o will_v never_o be_v win_v and_o therefore_o take_v heed_n of_o defer_v when_o thou_o find_v the_o holy_a ghost_n a_o suitor_n to_o thou_o and_o that_o christ_n speak_v to_o thy_o heart_n take_v heed_n of_o refuse_v his_o spirit_n shall_v not_o always_o strive_v with_o man_n if_o he_o knock_v but_o once_o open_a to_o he_o perhaps_o he_o will_v knock_v no_o more_o take_v heed_n of_o delay_n and_o putting_n off_o bid_v christ_n come_v another_o time_n for_o we_o common_o say_v delay_n be_v dangerous_a if_o thou_o do_v thou_o may_v loose_v thy_o suitor_n and_o christ_n may_v let_v thou_o sit_v all_o thy_o life_n time_n and_o never_o be_v a_o suitor_n to_o thou_o again_o there_o be_v indeed_o a_o time_n when_o all_o will_v match_v with_o christ_n in_o their_o extremity_n at_o their_o death_n as_o the_o foolish_a virgin_n they_o come_v when_o it_o prove_v too_o late_o the_o door_n be_v shut_v when_o the_o arrest_n come_v upon_o we_o than_o we_o will_v match_v with_o christ_n but_o than_o it_o be_v too_o late_o then_o christ_n will_v not_o match_v with_o thou_o then_o we_o may_v fly_v to_o the_o horn_n of_o the_o altar_n as_o joab_n do_v but_o then_o christ_n will_v say_v as_o solomon_n do_v of_o joab_n go_v fall_n upon_o he_o and_o kill_v he_o even_o there_o there_o be_v a_o refuge_n in_o the_o city_n but_o thou_o must_v be_v a_o citizen_n there_o before_o the_o avenger_n of_o blood_n come_v then_o be_v not_o a_o time_n to_o marry_v with_o christ_n then_o be_v a_o time_n to_o call_v to_o mountain_n to_o fall_v upon_o you_o and_o cover_v you_o and_o furthermore_o whereas_o thou_o say_v thou_o will_v hereafter_o match_v with_o christ_n but_o not_o yet_o what_o know_v thou_o but_o that_o thy_o soul_n may_v present_o be_v take_v from_o thou_o and_o therefore_o you_o see_v what_o a_o deal_n of_o folly_n man_n show_v in_o their_o putting_n off_o another_o impediment_n be_v when_o the_o party_n be_v christ._n bring_v together_o to_o see_v one_o another_o many_o time_n they_o do_v not_o like_o one_o another_o and_o
that_o thou_o care_v not_o for_o any_o thing_n so_o thou_o may_v have_v he_o this_o be_v to_o have_v a_o wedding_n conjugal_a affection_n but_o this_o be_v not_o all_o that_o make_v the_o marriage_n garment_n consider_v beside_o what_o boldness_n thou_o have_v in_o his_o presence_n for_o perfect_a love_n cast_v out_o fear_n now_o by_o boldness_n perfect_a love_n be_v not_o mean_v only_a love_n in_o the_o perféction_n that_o be_v grow_v to_o a_o height_n such_o we_o shall_v not_o have_v till_o we_o come_v to_o heaven_n but_o by_o perfect_a love_n be_v to_o be_v understand_v sincere_a love_n therefore_o if_o thou_o will_v know_v if_o thou_o have_v the_o wedding_n garment_n whether_o this_o conjugal_a affection_n be_v wrought_v thou_o shall_v know_v it_o by_o the_o boldness_n thou_o have_v with_o thy_o husband_n will_v thou_o say_v thou_o be_v marry_v to_o he_o and_o yet_o dare_v not_o speak_v to_o he_o but_o look_v on_o he_o as_o on_o a_o judge_n as_o a_o hard_a master_n or_o a_o stranger_n that_o thou_o dare_v not_o ask_v any_o thing_n of_o or_o if_o thou_o do_v thou_o know_v not_o whether_o thou_o shall_v obtain_v it_o there_o be_v a_o certain_a boldness_n and_o familiarity_n go_v along_o with_o this_o be_v there_o such_o a_o disposition_n put_v into_o thy_o heart_n beside_o this_o be_v not_o all_o there_o do_v withal_o accompany_v this_o all_o spiritual_a grace_n that_o clothe_v thy_o grace_n soul_n that_o do_v alter_v the_o habit_n of_o it_o for_o there_o be_v something_o understand_v in_o the_o similitude_n of_o a_o garment_n as_o import_v the_o very_a clothing_n that_o the_o soul_n wear_v when_o it_o have_v another_o habit_n than_o it_o have_v before_o now_o this_o clothing_n be_v a_o particoloured_a garment_n make_v of_o all_o the_o grace_n of_o the_o spirit_n therefore_o if_o thou_o will_v know_v whether_o thou_o have_v this_o wedding_n garment_n or_o no_o thou_o must_v look_v to_o every_o grace_n for_o the_o image_n of_o god_n be_v nothing_o else_o but_o the_o bundle_n and_o heap_n of_o all_o grace_n as_o the_o old_a man_n the_o image_n of_o satan_n and_o the_o first_o adam_n be_v the_o heap_n of_o all_o corruption_n so_o this_o wedding_n garment_n this_o image_n of_o the_o new_a adam_n it_o be_v that_o which_o consist_v of_o all_o the_o grace_n these_o must_v clothe_v thy_o soul_n and_o now_o belove_v when_o this_o be_v do_v the_o second_o thing_n that_o we_o be_v to_o do_v after_o this_o examination_n be_v to_o persuade_v every_o man_n to_o be_v content_a to_o take_v christ._n jesus_n christ_n for_o his_o husband_n if_o already_o you_o be_v in_o christ_n we_o have_v no_o more_o to_o do_v but_o to_o exhort_v you_o but_o to_o continue_v and_o intend_v that_o desire_n and_o affection_n and_o love_n to_o your_o husband_n but_o if_o upon_o this_o examination_n you_o find_v you_o be_v yet_o stranger_n i_o say_v the_o next_o use_n we_o be_v to_o make_v of_o it_o be_v to_o bring_v your_o heart_n to_o a_o willingness_n to_o match_v with_o he_o now_o to_o persuade_v you_o to_o this_o i_o will_v pitch_v brief_o on_o these_o three_o particular_n he_o first_o consider_v whether_o thou_o be_v able_a to_o live_v without_o a_o husband_n or_o alone_o the_o truth_n be_v thou_o must_v marry_v of_o necessity_n or_o thou_o be_v undo_v for_o it_o be_v the_o case_n of_o every_o man_n which_o be_v say_v of_o the_o captive_a woman_n in_o deut._n 21._o when_o they_o have_v overcome_v a_o city_n if_o there_o be_v a_o woman_n among_o they_o 21._o to_o who_o they_o have_v a_o favour_n they_o may_v marry_v she_o if_o they_o will_v if_o she_o consent_v she_o save_v her_o life_n by_o it_o i_o say_v that_o be_v the_o case_n of_o every_o man_n live_v that_o when_o we_o be_v all_o expose_v to_o death_n jesus_n christ_n have_v a_o favour_n to_o we_o and_o we_o must_v marry_v he_o or_o we_o die_v for_o it_o now_o therefore_o when_o he_o shall_v be_v a_o suitor_n to_o thou_o consider_v what_o thou_o have_v to_o say_v be_v thou_o able_a to_o live_v without_o he_o be_v thou_o able_a to_o pay_v thy_o ransom_n certain_o thou_o be_v not_o able_a and_o be_v it_o not_o then_o a_o madness_n in_o thou_o to_o refuse_v consider_v what_o be_v thy_o debt_n and_o consider_v thou_o debt_n be_v bind_v to_o pay_v the_o utmost_a farthing_n which_o the_o lord_n require_v at_o thy_o hand_n when_o a_o man_n consider_v serious_o of_o this_o that_o every_o idle_a word_n every_o sin_n of_o omission_n or_o that_o be_v commit_v be_v a_o debt_n and_o stand_v upon_o his_o own_o score_n and_o that_o himself_o be_v not_o able_a to_o pay_v this_o will_v make_v a_o man_n begin_v to_o look_v about_o he_o my_o belove_a all_o the_o affliction_n that_o we_o have_v in_o this_o life_n they_o be_v but_o a_o pay_v the_o use_n money_n require_v for_o the_o debt_n the_o main_a debt_n remain_v entire_a that_o must_v be_v simile_n pay_v at_o that_o day_n the_o day_n of_o wrath_n at_o the_o day_n of_o declaration_n of_o the_o just_a judgement_n of_o god_n therefore_o consider_v first_o thy_o debt_n and_o withal_o consider_v thy_o poverty_n it_o be_v true_a though_o thou_o be_v in_o debt_n if_o poverty_n thou_o have_v somewhat_o to_o pay_v it_o it_o be_v another_o matter_n and_o indeed_o many_o man_n be_v puff_v up_o with_o a_o conceit_n and_o think_v they_o have_v something_o to_o pay_v and_o this_o be_v the_o case_n of_o all_o hypocrite_n that_o think_v they_o have_v some_o good_a work_n they_o have_v do_v many_o good_a thing_n they_o come_v to_o church_n due_o etc._n etc._n but_o you_o must_v know_v that_o all_o this_o will_v not_o pay_v your_o debt_n as_o it_o be_v revel_v 3._o i_o counsel_v thou_o to_o buy_v of_o i_o gold_n that_o thou_o may_v be_v rich_a 3._o till_o a_o man_n have_v a_o husband_n till_o he_o have_v jesus_n christ_n all_o the_o work_v he_o do_v be_v little_a worth_n ay_o but_o though_o a_o man_n be_v in_o debt_n and_o have_v not_o object_n a_o penny_n to_o pay_v his_o debt_n yet_o there_o be_v usual_o a_o time_n give_v a_o man_n be_v not_o cast_v present_o into_o prison_n i_o answer_v though_o thou_o be_v not_o yet_o thou_o be_v in_o fear_n danger_n all_o the_o time_n and_o it_o be_v a_o miserable_a thing_n to_o live_v in_o another_o man_n danger_n to_o be_v in_o danger_n of_o a_o enemy_n when_o a_o man_n shall_v have_v many_o writ_n out_o against_o he_o and_o know_v not_o when_o

2._o 14._o 14_o it_o be_v give_v as_o a_o reason_n why_o christ_n take_v part_n with_o the_o child_n that_o he_o may_v deliver_v they_o that_o for_o fear_n of_o death_n be_v all_o their_o life_n

deliver_v from_o this_o fear_n and_o bondage_n that_o every_o other_o man_n be_v in_o it_o be_v a_o great_a motive_n to_o move_v we_o to_o this_o ay_o but_o be_v there_o not_o quest._n some_o bail_n may_v not_o a_o man_n flee_v from_o this_o arrest_n i_o answer_v no_o every_o man_n without_o christ_n be_v like_o danger_n a_o woman_n that_o be_v friendless_a that_o have_v none_o to_o stand_v for_o

and_o that_o you_o may_v know_v which_o to_o choose_v i_o will_v express_v it_o to_o you_o by_o this_o it_o be_v as_o when_o a_o sick_a man_n lie_v between_o the_o physician_n and_o the_o disease_n
