health_n and_o keep_v up_o the_o vigour_n of_o our_o mind_n and_o the_o way_n to_o do_v that_o be_v not_o to_o put_v they_o too_o much_o or_o too_o long_o upon_o the_o stretch_n at_o any_o one_o time_n but_o to_o relax_v they_o when_o there_o be_v occasion_n and_o to_o let_v they_o run_v out_o and_o entertain_v themselves_o upon_o any_o thing_n that_o come_v next_o to_o hand_n so_o long_o as_o it_o be_v innocent_a it_o be_v a_o vain_a thing_n to_o imagine_v that_o we_o can_v always_o be_v think_v of_o our_o great_a business_n or_o that_o we_o can_v always_o be_v a_o pray_v or_o read_v or_o meditate_v or_o that_o as_o our_o condition_n be_v in_o this_o world_n even_o the_o great_a part_n of_o our_o thought_n shall_v be_v such_o as_o we_o call_v devout_a and_o religious_a thought_n god_n have_v provide_v a_o great_a deal_n of_o other_o business_n for_o we_o to_o apply_v our_o mind_n to_o so_o long_o as_o we_o live_v in_o this_o world_n and_o by_o mind_v that_o diligent_o and_o conscientious_o we_o do_v serve_v god_n as_o acceptable_o as_o if_o we_o be_v read_v or_o pray_v nay_o even_o then_o when_o we_o have_v no_o urgent_a business_n upon_o our_o hand_n to_o take_v up_o our_o mind_n it_o be_v not_o necessary_a that_o we_o shall_v be_v always_o think_v of_o religion_n norwould_v i_o call_v every_o thought_n a_o vain_a or_o a_o idle_a or_o a_o sinful_a thought_n that_o have_v not_o god_n or_o our_o spiritual_a concernment_n for_o its_o object_n even_o the_o most_o spiritually-minded_n among_o we_o must_v oftentimes_o be_v content_a to_o be_v entertain_v with_o such_o thought_n as_o our_o company_n or_o our_o temper_n or_o the_o present_a circumstance_n we_o be_v in_o do_v suggest_v to_o we_o and_o provide_v those_o thought_n be_v innocent_a and_o do_v not_o entrench_v upon_o the_o law_n of_o piety_n and_o purity_n and_o charity_n be_v they_o otherwise_o very_a trifle_n and_o impertinent_a i_o say_v i_o will_v not_o look_v upon_o they_o as_o ill_a thought_n nor_o have_v any_o one_o angry_a at_o himself_o upon_o account_n of_o they_o the_o truth_n of_o it_o be_v so_o long_o as_o we_o consist_v of_o body_n and_o soul_n we_o can_v always_o be_v think_v of_o serious_a thing_n they_o indeed_o be_v the_o wise_a that_o think_v of_o they_o most_o but_o it_o be_v even_o dangerous_a to_o attempt_v to_o think_v of_o they_o always_o for_o as_o most_o man_n constitution_n be_v that_o be_v the_o ready_a way_n to_o spoil_v the_o habit_n of_o our_o body_n and_o by_o that_o mean_n to_o render_v our_o mind_n perfect_o unfit_a for_o think_v at_o all_o to_o any_o good_a purpose_n thus_o have_v i_o lay_v before_o you_o the_o main_a thing_n wherein_o as_o i_o do_v believe_v the_o right_a govern_v our_o thought_n do_v consist_v and_o i_o doubt_v not_o they_o be_v so_o safe_a and_o so_o effectual_a that_o whosoever_o will_v sincere_o practice_v they_o as_o far_o as_o he_o can_v will_v so_o keep_v his_o heart_n that_o the_o issue_n from_o thence_o in_o his_o life_n and_o conversation_n will_v be_v happy_a and_o prosperous_a i_o conclude_v all_o with_o the_o collect_n of_o this_o day_n almighty_a god_n who_o see_v that_o we_o have_v no_o power_n of_o ourselves_o to_o help_v ourselves_o keep_v we_o both_o outward_o in_o our_o body_n and_o inward_o in_o our_o soul_n that_o we_o may_v be_v defend_v from_o all_o adversity_n which_o may_v happen_v
