of_o they_o that_o be_v in_o that_o day_n be_v go_v to_o rest_n with_o the_o lord_n for_o ever_o and_o after_o they_o have_v receive_v the_o truth_n in_o the_o love_n of_o it_o there_o be_v a_o

notwithstanding_o all_o the_o difference_n they_o stand_v the_o day_n and_o the_o lord_n be_v with_o they_o and_o they_o suffer_v joyful_o the_o spoil_n of_o their_o good_n and_o imprisonment_n and_o some_o lose_v their_o dear_a life_n now_o friend_n after_o the_o heat_n of_o the_o persecution_n be_v over_o there_o be_v a_o rest_n and_o the_o enemy_n take_v some_o advantage_n after_o that_o but_o i_o hope_v that_o be_v make_v up_o again_o but_o now_o friend_n the_o thing_n that_o lie_v chief_o upon_o i_o be_v how_o we_o have_v answer_v the_o lord_n call_v out_o of_o many_o evil_n and_o that_o in_o no_o wise_a we_o may_v go_v back_o to_o egypt_n again_o as_o i_o be_o afraid_a too_o many_o be_v go_v into_o that_o which_o the_o lord_n by_o his_o right_a hand_n bring_v out_o of_o they_o that_o which_o be_v displease_v unto_o he_o and_o now_o i_o do_v desire_n as_o for_o my_o own_o soul_n you_o may_v look_v back_o through_o all_o those_o thing_n and_o see_v the_o lord_n deal_n all_v along_o from_o one_o time_n to_o another_o and_o do_v not_o despise_v the_o day_n of_o small_a thing_n though_o the_o lord_n have_v give_v riches_n and_o make_v up_o your_o loss_n both_o in_o london_n and_o bristol_n especial_o bristol_n i_o mean_v what_o you_o have_v lose_v by_o suffer_v for_o truth_n and_o as_o he_o have_v make_v it_o up_o to_o you_o many_o way_n the_o desire_n of_o my_o soul_n be_v that_o none_o of_o we_o that_o have_v partake_v of_o the_o lovingkindness_n of_o the_o lord_n that_o we_o may_v do_v nothing_o that_o may_v cause_v he_o to_o withdraw_v his_o holy_a spirit_n from_o we_o for_o if_o it_o shall_v be_v so_o we_o shall_v be_v as_o miserable_a as_o any_o people_n whatsoever_o for_o what_o can_v we_o do_v without_o the_o lord_n we_o can_v stand_v of_o ourselves_o because_o all_o our_o fresh_a spring_n be_v in_o he_o and_o therefore_o we_o be_v to_o watch_v and_o pray_v continual_o that_o we_o may_v not_o be_v carry_v away_o by_o the_o great_a enemy_n of_o our_o soul_n or_o turn_v out_o of_o the_o way_n for_o he_o will_v be_v ready_a to_o betray_v the_o simplehearted_n therefore_o i_o do_v desire_n that_o in_o the_o simplicity_n of_o our_o heart_n we_o may_v look_v about_o we_o and_o see_v how_o many_o way_n the_o enemy_n have_v take_v to_o betray_v the_o simplicity_n of_o the_o truth_n since_o the_o break_n forth_o of_o it_o and_o now_o friend_n i_o have_v a_o word_n or_o two_o to_o the_o young_a generation_n let_v they_o be_v where_o they_o will_v in_o city_n or_o country_n that_o have_v not_o know_v much_o of_o this_o travail_n to_o consider_v with_o themselves_o whether_o they_o ought_v not_o to_o be_v concern_v in_o this_o work_n as_o well_o as_o the_o ancient_n that_o
have_v go_v before_o they_o for_o the_o way_n be_v the_o same_o for_o the_o young_a as_o well_o as_o the_o old_a and_o therefore_o they_o ought_v to_o consider_v their_o stand_n and_o the_o lord_n be_v the_o same_o to_o day_n as_o yesterday_o and_o for_o ever_o and_o he_o will_v not_o acquit_v the_o guilty_a neither_o rich_a nor_o poor_a therefore_o i_o pray_v friend_n consider_v and_o be_v you_o watchful_a with_o that_o little_a knowledge_n which_o the_o lord_n have_v give_v you_o over_o your_o word_n and_o action_n whether_o it_o be_v pride_n or_o any_o other_o evil_n which_o oppress_v the_o seed_n that_o you_o may_v witness_v peace_n as_o many_o that_o have_v go_v before_o you_o have_v do_v and_o now_o friend_n i_o have_v a_o word_n to_o some_o that_o minister_v among_o we_o for_o they_o that_o have_v their_o commission_n right_o from_o the_o lord_n their_o need_n not_o much_o be_v say_v but_o some_o there_o be_v that_o minster_n in_o the_o wise_a part_n by_o what_o they_o learn_v from_o other_o and_o from_o the_o scripture_n and_o they_o reach_v to_o the_o wise_a part_n in_o other_o but_o the_o right_a ministry_n dissolve_v all_o to_o nothing_o and_o make_v self_n of_o no_o reputation_n and_o cut_v down_o that_o that_o stand_v in_o the_o way_n and_o further_o i_o desire_v that_o there_o may_v not_o be_v too_o much_o heal_n of_o the_o wound_n until_o it_o be_v thorough_o search_v that_o they_o may_v not_o go_v away_o to_o much_o at_o ease_n and_o forget_v themselves_o and_o a_o liberty_n get_v in_o and_o then_o they_o be_v more_o careless_a than_o ever_o they_o be_v before_o and_o so_o i_o desire_v you_o that_o be_v right_o call_v may_v watch_v over_o the_o flock_n and_o over_o your_o own_o heart_n too_o for_o i_o do_v not_o question_v but_o you_o may_v have_v occasion_n as_o well_o as_o other_o to_o watch_v continual_o for_o what_o the_o enemy_n can_v do_v one_o way_n he_o will_v endeavour_v another_o and_o now_o friend_n i_o have_v a_o word_n to_o those_o that_o have_v be_v long_a hearer_n of_o the_o truth_n as_o we_o have_v be_v long_a hearer_n but_o now_o the_o lord_n be_v rise_v and_o call_v upon_o we_o to_o be_v doer_n of_o his_o will_n in_o whatsoever_o he_o call_v we_o to_o and_o as_o other_o have_v be_v preacher_n to_o we_o we_o may_v now_o be_v preacher_n ourselves_o in_o righteousness_n and_o in_o truth_n for_o if_o we_o hear_v all_o our_o day_n and_o do_v not_o come_v to_o that_o of_o god_n in_o ourselves_o to_o be_v preacher_n to_o other_o in_o our_o conversation_n it_o be_v no_o encouragement_n for_o other_o to_o follow_v our_o example_n i_o pray_v friend_n be_v not_o offend_v at_o my_o plain_a deal_v for_o i_o always_o find_v it_o best_o if_o i_o have_v any_o thing_n against_o a_o friend_n to_o tell_v he_o of_o it_o to_o his_o face_n and_o not_o join_v with_o a_o enemy_n against_o he_o behind_o his_o back_n and_o i_o ever_o have_v peace_n in_o so_o do_v and_o i_o hope_v shall_v to_o the_o end_n friend_n i_o have_v some_o concern_v upon_o my_o mind_n concern_v some_o of_o those_o that_o run_v into_o such_o thing_n that_o i_o be_o sure_a the_o truth_n will_v not_o justify_v in_o desire_v to_o be_v rich_a by_o that_o way_n that_o god_n controversy_n be_v against_o i_o pray_v consider_v be_v it_o not_o better_a to_o be_v content_v with_o the_o blessing_n of_o the_o lord_n in_o a_o middle_a way_n than_o to_o run_v into_o that_o that_o cause_v a_o evil_a report_n upon_o the_o good_a land_n i_o will_v have_v none_o discourage_v because_o of_o these_o thing_n nor_o think_v the_o worse_a of_o the_o land_n because_o of_o the_o evil_a spy_n for_o such_o as_o have_v know_v the_o true_a travel_n to_o it_o can_v give_v in_o their_o testimony_n that_o the_o land_n be_v good_a for_o all_o this_o and_o to_o be_v desire_v beyond_o all_o thing_n in_o this_o world_n friend_n i_o have_v something_o further_a that_o lie_v upon_o my_o mind_n that_o be_v the_o consideration_n of_o those_o thing_n which_o be_v before_o write_v of_o the_o great_a appearance_n that_o be_v once_o witness_v of_o the_o presence_n of_o the_o lord_n that_o be_v among_o we_o and_o now_o my_o desire_n be_v for_o

former_a day_n will_v satisfy_v our_o hungry_a soul_n now_o because_o our_o lord_n exhort_v we_o to_o pray_v for_o our_o daily_a bread_n and_o that_o we_o may_v watch_v and_o pray_v always_o for_o if_o we_o lose_v the_o sense_n of_o our_o condition_n darkness_n may_v soon_o overtake_v we_o and_o then_o what_o can_v we_o do_v and_o now_o friend_n if_o any_o shall_v rise_v up_o aga_v the_o

upon_o the_o consideration_n of_o the_o many_o deliverance_n that_o we_o have_v have_v since_o that_o massacree_n the_o desire_n of_o my_o heart_n be_v that_o we_o may_v do_v nothing_o to_o provoke_v the_o lord_n as_o israel_n do_v of_o old_a to_o cause_v he_o to_o bring_v his_o judgement_n upon_o we_o as_o he_o do_v upon_o they_o because_o i_o see_v there_o be_v many_o come_v in_o among_o we_o
