A91363	A little cabinet richly stored with all sorts of heavenly varieties, and soul-reviving influences. Wherein there is a remedy for every malady, viz. milk for babes, and meat for strong men, and the ready way for both to obtain and retain assurance of salvation: being an abridgement of the sum and substance of the true Christian religion; wherein the cause of our salvation, the way, the guide, the rule, the evidence, the seals, &c. and the connection of these points together, and dependancy of them one upon another: this I have endeavoured to do orderly, exactly, methodically, with much plainness and clearness. / By Robert Purnell.

it_o be_v say_v mortify_v your_o lust_n now_o this_o a_o man_n can_v do_v of_o himself_o but_o the_o same_o god_n that_o command_v we_o to_o kill_v our_o lust_n will_v kill_v they_o for_o we_o micah_n

old_a error_n press_v people_n to_o do_v the_o thing_n that_o be_v command_v but_o not_o as_o it_o be_v command_v so_o many_o of_o our_o brethren_n of_o the_o presbyterian_a party_n be_v in_o and_o
