my_o solitary_a aim_n in_o this_o sermon_n be_v to_o direct_v you_o both_o in_o your_o prayer_n and_o practice_n how_o to_o salve_v up_o our_o sore_n and_o to_o heal_v our_o wound_n and_o if_o in_o any_o thing_n that_o serve_v to_o so_o good_a a_o end_n i_o seem_v too_o bold_a or_o bitter_a let_v your_o grave_a experience_n make_v this_o apology_n for_o i_o viz._n that_o a_o mortal_a wound_n must_v be_v thorough_o search_v ere_o it_o can_v be_v sound_o heal_v and_o that_o no_o purgative_a medicine_n can_v bring_v health_n without_o some_o bitterness_n i_o will_v not_o witting_o give_v any_o man_n any_o manner_n of_o offence_n and_o yet_o if_o in_o the_o faithful_a discharge_n of_o my_o duty_n i_o shall_v i_o hope_v that_o they_o among_o you_o which_o be_v moderate_a will_v

the_o heart_n of_o the_o simple_a for_o your_o obedience_n be_v come_v abroad_o unto_o all_o man_n i_o be_o glad_a therefore_o on_o your_o behalf_n but_o yet_o i_o will_v have_v you_o wise_a unto_o
