that_o begin_v to_o study_v philosophy_n when_o he_o be_v go_v to_o dispute_v public_o in_o the_o faculty_n all_o that_o a_o sick_a and_o die_a man_n can_v do_v be_v but_o to_o exercise_v those_o

not_o only_o because_o it_o represent_v the_o vanity_n of_o a_o late_a and_o sickbed_n repentance_n but_o because_o it_o contain_v in_o it_o so_o many_o precept_n and_o meditation_n so_o many_o proposition_n and_o various_a duty_n such_o form_n of_o exercise_n and_o the_o degree_n and_o difficulty_n of_o so_o many_o grace_n which_o be_v necessary_a preparative_n to_o a_o holy_a death_n that_o the_o very_a learning_n the_o duty_n require_v study_v and_o skill_n time_n and_o understanding_n in_o the_o way_n of_o godliness_n and_o it_o be_v very_o vain_a to_o say_v so_o much_o be_v necessary_a and_o not_o to_o suppose_v more_o time_n to_o learn_v they_o more_o skill_n to_o practice_v they_o more_o opportunity_n to_o desire_v they_o more_o ability_n both_o of_o body_n and_o

notice_n a_o imperfect_a study_n may_v be_v supply_v by_o a_o frequent_a exercise_n and_o a_o renew_a experience_n here_o if_o we_o practise_v imperfect_o once_o we_o shall_v never_o recover_v the_o
