not_o let_v sin_n alone_o till_o it_o die_v itself_o note_v but_o we_o must_v kill_v sin_n while_o it_o may_v yet_o live_v it_o be_v no_o repentance_n to_o leave_v sin_n when_o it_o leave_v we_o or_o to_o give_v it_o over_o when_o we_o can_v commit_v it_o no_o long_o second_o that_o true_a repentance_n make_v a_o great_a alteration_n in_o a_o man_n three_o that_o it_o have_v in_o it_o pain_n and_o

if_o we_o strive_v with_o god_n and_o be_v earnest_a with_o spiritual_a importunity_n watch_v the_o way_n of_o our_o own_o heart_n to_o wound_v sin_n so_o soon_o as_o we_o see_v it_o begin_v to_o

that_o he_o shall_v ever_o be_v stir_v with_o the_o temptation_n or_o enticement_n or_o occasion_n of_o evil_a but_o my_o meaning_n be_v that_o in_o some_o measure_n and_o in_o the_o most_o sin_n a_o christian_n do_v find_v it_o so_o and_o in_o every_o sin_n his_o desire_n and_o endeavour_n be_v daily_o to_o have_v it_o so_o and_o his_o desire_n be_v not_o without_o some_o happy_a success_n so_o as_o sin_n die_v or_o lie_v a_o die_a every_o day_n but_o here_o a_o question_n may_v arise_v que._n do_v not_o the_o apostle_n grant_v they_o be_v dead_a before_o and_o if_o they_o be_v dead_a to_o the_o world_n they_o be_v without_o question_n dead_a to_o sin_n also_o how_o then_o do_v he_o speak_v to_o they_o to_o mortify_v sin_n do_v it_o not_o imply_v they_o have_v not_o be_v mortify_v before_o i_o answer_v the_o apostle_n may_v well_o use_v this_o exhortation_n for_o diverse_a reason_n ans._n first_o many_o of_o they_o perhaps_o be_v dead_a but_o in_o appearance_n they_o profess_v mortification_n but_o be_v not_o mortify_v second_o it_o may_v be_v some_o of_o they_o have_v begin_v to_o use_v some_o exercise_n of_o mortification_n but_o have_v not_o finish_v their_o mortification_n sure_o it_o be_v and_o we_o may_v see_v it_o by_o daily_a experience_n that_o many_o be_v win_v by_o the_o word_n and_o smite_v with_o remorse_n have_v sometime_o the_o pang_n of_o

thou_o must_v beg_v sorrow_n at_o god_n hand_n every_o day_n constant_o in_o the_o time_n set_v apart_o for_o prayer_n till_o the_o lord_n give_v thou_o rest_n to_o thy_o soul_n by_o grant_v the_o

have_v he_o smite_v he_o say_v the_o prophet_n as_o he_o smite_v those_o that_o smite_v he_o 27.7_o as_o if_o he_o shall_v ask_v have_v the_o lord_n plague_v israel_n as_o he_o plague_v those_o that_o
