discharge_v their_o duty_n in_o the_o execution_n of_o justice_n iii_o that_o the_o same_o be_v a_o great_a terror_n to_o the_o wicked_a and_o unjust_a and_o iv_o that_o injustice_n and_o wickedness_n will_v first_o or_o last_o bring_v a_o man_n to_o ruin_v without_o repentance_n destruction_n shall_v be_v to_o the_o worker_n of_o iniquity_n i_o shall_v speak_v something_o brief_o to_o each_o of_o these_o proposition_n by_o way_n of_o illustration_n and_o confirmation_n of_o they_o and_o then_o proceed_v to_o make_v some_o application_n and_o i._o that_o it_o be_v a_o great_a pleasure_n to_o a_o just_a man_n to_o do_v justice_n and_o this_o it_o be_v first_o because_o it_o be_v a_o act_n according_o to_o his_o own_o inclination_n now_o it_o be_v always_o pleasant_a to_o a_o man_n to_o pursue_v the_o natural_a or_o habitual_a inclination_n of_o his_o mind_n merciful_a and_o compassionate_a man_n take_v delight_n in_o relieve_v and_o succour_v the_o afflict_a a_o bountiful_a disposition_n be_v please_v with_o act_n of_o liberality_n and_o therefore_o seek_v the_o fit_a occasion_n and_o opportunity_n for_o they_o according_a to_o that_o of_o the_o prophet_n the_o liberal_a devise_v liberal_a thing_n even_o evil_a and_o naughty_a inclination_n make_v it_o pleasant_a in_o some_o degree_n for_o the_o time_n to_o act_v according_a to_o '_o they_o so_o a_o covetous_a man_n take_v pleasure_n in_o hoard_v up_o money_n though_o to_o no_o purpose_n one_o that_o be_v of_o a_o revengeful_a disposition_n in_o act_v his_o revenge_n a_o luxurious_a person_n in_o riot_n and_o excess_n but_o the_o difference_n be_v where_o the_o habit_n or_o inclination_n be_v evil_a all_o the_o pleasure_n that_o can_v come_v from_o act_v according_a to_o it_o be_v quite_o over-balanced_a by_o the_o sting_v it_o leave_v behind_o and_o it_o be_v not_o so_o pleasant_a in_o do_v as_o it_o be_v bitter_a to_o reflect_v upon_o and_o bitter_a in_o its_o consequence_n but_o on_o the_o other_o side_n where_o reason_n religion_n and_o inclination_n meet_v there_o the_o pleasure_n of_o act_v according_a to_o such_o a_o inclination_n be_v entire_a and_o no_o sorrow_n mix_v with_o it_o but_o a_o man_n be_v easy_a and_o well_o please_v in_o follow_v the_o bend_v of_o his_o own_o heart_n and_o do_v not_o fear_v he_o shall_v rue_v it_o another_o day_n but_o though_o he_o shall_v meet_v with_o some_o difficulty_n and_o obstruction_n from_o without_o yet_o he_o will_v find_v a_o reward_n in_o the_o comfortable_a testimony_n of_o his_o own_o conscience_n therefore_o second_o it_o be_v joy_n to_o the_o just_a to_o do_v judgement_n because_o he_o know_v that_o he_o do_v well_o in_o so_o do_v and_o that_o his_o action_n be_v approve_v by_o almighty_a god_n he_o know_v that_o he_o act_v as_o become_v a_o reasonable_a creature_n and_o agreeable_o to_o that_o law_n by_o which_o he_o himself_o must_v be_v judge_v and_o this_o can_v but_o be_v a_o mighty_a pleasure_n to_o the_o mind_n a_o pleasure_n which_o none_o can_v possible_o have_v in_o do_v wicked_o for_o however_o through_o error_n such_o may_v sometime_o imagine_v that_o they_o do_v well_o yet_o that_o be_v the_o most_o it_o can_v amount_v to_o they_o can_v never_o be_v sure_a of_o it_o because_o it_o be_v not_o so_o and_o general_o wicked_a man_n either_o know_v or_o at_o least_o great_o suspect_v that_o what_o they_o do_v be_v evil_n and_o displease_v to_o god_n and_o that_o can_v but_o be_v a_o great_a disquiet_n to_o the_o mind_n of_o any_o man_n that_o will_v give_v himself_o leave_v to_o think_v and_o reflect_v on_o his_o own_o action_n and_o hence_o three_o to_o do_v justice_n must_v needs_o be_v joy_n to_o a_o good_a man_n because_o of_o the_o assure_a hope_n it_o give_v he_o of_o god_n favour_n who_o be_v evermore_o a_o lover_n and_o rewarder_n of_o the_o upright_a according_a to_o that_o of_o the_o psalmist_n 11.7_o psalm_n 11.7_o the_o righteous_a lord_n love_v righteousness_n his_o countenance_n do_v behold_v the_o upright_a thus_o job_n who_o be_v a_o great_a ruler_n and_o magistrate_n in_o his_o country_n ground_v his_o hope_n of_o
