ourselves_o christian_n and_o that_o we_o will_v take_v up_o our_o cross_n and_o follow_v after_o he_o this_o take_n of_o the_o bread_n we_o shall_v look_v upon_o as_o a_o receive_v the_o yoke_n of_o christ_n upon_o our_o neck_n and_o lay_v his_o cross_n upon_o our_o shoulder_n if_o he_o think_v fit_a we_o embrace_v a_o crucify_a jesus_n and_o we_o be_v not_o to_o expect_v to_o live_v in_o pleasure_n unless_o they_o be_v spiritual_a nor_o to_o rejoice_v with_o the_o world_n but_o to_o endure_v affliction_n and_o account_v it_o all_o joy_n when_o we_o fall_v into_o manifold_a temptation_n protest_v therefore_o unto_o he_o that_o thou_o love_v he_o as_o thou_o see_v he_o strip_v and_o naked_a bruise_a and_o wound_v slay_v and_o dead_a and_o that_o thou_o be_v content_v to_o take_v joyful_o the_o spoil_n of_o thy_o good_n to_o be_v please_v with_o pain_n and_o to_o count_v death_n the_o way_n to_o life_n v._o when_o we_o eat_v it_o be_v a_o fit_a season_n to_o put_v forth_o these_o two_o act_n of_o faith_n 1._o let_v we_o express_v our_o hearty_a consent_n that_o christ_n shall_v dwell_v within_o we_o that_o we_o will_v be_v rule_v by_o his_o law_n and_o govern_v by_o his_o spirit_n that_o he_o shall_v be_v the_o alone_a king_n of_o our_o soul_n and_o the_o lord_n of_o all_o our_o faculty_n and_o that_o we_o will_v have_v no_o other_o master_n but_o only_o he_o to_o give_v command_n within_o we_o eat_v i_o tell_v you_o be_v a_o foederal_a rite_n and_o therefore_o when_o we_o have_v swallow_v this_o bread_n we_o shall_v think_v that_o we_o have_v surrender_v all_o up_o into_o his_o hand_n and_o put_v he_o into_o full_a power_n over_o our_o soul_n and_o we_o shall_v think_v also_o that_o we_o have_v give_v he_o the_o possession_n of_o our_o soul_n for_o ever_o and_o engage_v never_o to_o change_v our_o master_n for_o eat_v be_v more_o receive_n then_o take_v a_o thing_n with_o our_o hand_n it_o be_v as_o it_o be_v the_o incorporate_n of_o the_o thing_n with_o the_o substance_n of_o our_o body_n and_o make_v it_o a_o part_n of_o ourselves_o that_o it_o may_v last_v as_o long_o as_o we_o so_o shall_v we_o meditate_v that_o we_o receive_v the_o lord_n jesus_n never_o to_o be_v separate_v from_o his_o service_n for_o ever_o to_o adhere_v unto_o he_o as_o our_o prince_n and_o captain_n as_o our_o head_n and_o husband_n wheresoever_o his_o command_n will_v lead_v we_o and_o as_o we_o open_v our_o heart_n thus_o to_o receive_v he_o so_o let_v we_o now_o fold_v he_o in_o our_o arm_n and_o embrace_v he_o with_o a_o most_o cordial_a affection_n let_v the_o fire_n burn_v now_o and_o make_v we_o boil_v up_o yea_o even_o run_v over_o with_o love_n to_o he_o now_o be_v the_o time_n not_o only_o to_o give_v ourselves_o to_o he_o but_o to_o make_v a_o sacrifice_n of_o ourselves_o as_o a_o whole_a burnt-offering_a unto_o god_n now_o shall_v we_o lay_v ourselves_o on_o the_o altar_n of_o the_o lord_n to_o be_v offer_v up_o entire_o to_o he_o who_o make_v his_o soul_n a_o offering_n for_o sin_n that_o there_o may_v not_o only_o be_v a_o representative_a but_o a_o real_a sacrifice_n at_o this_o feast_n unto_o heaven_n i.e._n that_o we_o may_v not_o only_o show_v forth_o the_o sacrifice_n of_o christ_n and_o represent_v it_o before_o god_n but_o we_o ourselves_o may_v offer_v up_o our_o soul_n and_o body_n unto_o he_o and_o send_v they_o up_o in_o flame_n of_o love_n as_o so_o many_o holocau_v to_o be_v consume_v and_o spend_v in_o the_o service_n of_o our_o god_n then_o let_v we_o wish_v for_o the_o flame_n of_o a_o seraphim_n in_o the_o love_n of_o god_n for_o the_o cheerfulness_n and_o speed_n of_o a_o cherubin_n in_o the_o service_n of_o god_n and_o for_o the_o voice_n of_o a_o angel_n that_o we_o may_v sing_v the_o praise_n of_o god_n let_v we_o like_o our_o choice_n so_o well_o and_o think_v that_o we_o be_v so_o behold_v to_o he_o that_o we_o may_v give_v ourselves_o to_o he_o as_o to_o begin_v to_o leap_v for_o joy_n that_o we_o have_v part_v with_o ourselves_o and_o be_v become_v he_o and_o as_o a_o token_n that_o we_o give_v ourselves_o and_o all_o we_o have_v to_o god_n we_o shall_v now_o think_v upon_o those_o offering_n we_o intend_v to_o make_v for_o the_o poor_a member_n of_o jesus_n christ_n and_o desire_v the_o lord_n to_o accept_v of_o our_o gift_n which_o we_o present_v he_o withal_o as_o earnest_n of_o ourselves_o which_o we_o have_v consecrate_v unto_o he_o and_o perhaps_o now_o our_o heart_n may_v be_v stir_v with_o so_o great_a compassion_n and_o our_o bowel_n may_v be_v so_o feel_o move_v that_o our_o charity_n may_v overflow_v the_o bank_n that_o we_o have_v set_v it_o and_o the_o fire_n that_o be_v within_o we_o may_v require_v a_o fat_a and_o large_a offering_n than_o we_o design_v but_o howsoever_o we_o can_v but_o deal_v our_o bread_n to_o the_o hungry_a with_o a_o more_o cheerful_a hand_n and_o give_v our_o alm_n with_o a_o free_a heart_n when_o we_o have_v receive_v the_o bread_n of_o life_n into_o our_o hand_n and_o heart_n and_o feel_v what_o the_o huge_a charity_n of_o our_o lord_n be_v towards_o we_o most_o miserable_a and_o wretched_a creature_n 2._o a_o second_o act_n of_o faith_n which_o we_o shall_v now_o exercise_v be_v this_o let_v we_o real_o believe_v that_o all_o the_o blessing_n of_o the_o new_a covenant_n be_v make_v over_o to_o we_o by_o this_o give_v and_o receive_v of_o his_o sacred_a body_n let_v thy_o soul_n say_v my_o belove_a be_v i_o as_o i_o be_o he_o be_v confident_a and_o well_o assure_v that_o if_o thou_o be_v hearty_a in_o the_o former_a act_n of_o say_v thou_o shall_v as_o certain_o receive_v pardon_n and_o grace_n and_o strength_n and_o salvation_n as_o thy_o mouth_n thou_o be_v sure_o eat_v the_o holy_a bread_n the_o former_a act_n be_v a_o receive_v he_o as_o our_o lord_n and_o this_o as_o our_o saviour_n think_v therefore_o that_o now_o christ_n dwell_v in_o thou_o and_o thou_o in_o he_o that_o as_o he_o must_v be_v master_n of_o the_o house_n so_o thou_o shall_v partake_v of_o all_o his_o riches_n of_o all_o his_o honour_n and_o pleasure_n and_o so_o begin_v to_o ransack_v his_o treasure_n desire_v he_o to_o spread_v before_o thou_o his_o inestimable_a riches_n pray_v he_o to_o show_v thou_o if_o it_o be_v but_o a_o little_a glimpse_n of_o the_o glory_n of_o the_o inheritance_n of_o the_o saint_n and_o what_o joy_n will_v this_o create_v in_o thy_o soul_n when_o thou_o think_v that_o thou_o and_o christ_n be_v one_o that_o thou_o be_v unite_v to_o his_o most_o precious_a body_n and_o shall_v certain_o receive_v all_o the_o benefit_n of_o his_o death_n and_o passion_n o_o what_o ravishment_n shall_v it_o be_v unto_o we_o to_o believe_v that_o sin_n shall_v not_o have_v dominion_n over_o we_o that_o the_o blood_n of_o jesus_n cleanse_v we_o from_o all_o unrighteousness_n that_o the_o flame_n of_o hell_n shall_v never_o touch_v we_o that_o death_n be_v swallow_v up_o in_o victory_n that_o the_o grave_n be_v bury_v in_o the_o wound_n of_o our_o saviour_n that_o we_o be_v seal_v with_o the_o mark_n of_o god_n and_o consign_v to_o a_o bless_a

supply_n of_o all_o our_o want_n we_o may_v put_v up_o strong_a cry_n now_o that_o we_o conceive_v he_o be_v in_o we_o and_o entreat_v he_o since_o it_o be_v his_o pleasure_n to_o be_v so_o familiar_a
