in_o before_o you_o be_v deliver_v that_o be_v the_o way_n to_o exalt_v god_n in_o your_o praise_n represent_v to_o yourselves_o your_o sad_a condition_n your_o fear_n your_o want_n your_o danger_n contrary_n illustrate_v one_o another_o as_o prosperity_n and_o adversity_n the_o misery_n of_o a_o saint_n former_o set_v forth_o the_o mercy_n of_o god_n in_o jesus_n christ_n one_o year_n peace_n

the_o saint_n deliverance_n by_o the_o misery_n precede_v you_o that_o have_v deliverance_n by_o christ_n look_v to_o the_o misery_n you_o be_v in_o begin_v with_o that_o what_o darkness_n and_o

we_o when_o ungodly_a when_o enemy_n when_o dead_a rom._n 5._o ephes_n 2._o look_v to_o this_o mercy_n of_o god_n in_o christ_n alas_o what_o praise_n will_v you_o else_o give_v to_o god_n this_o day_n we_o can_v never_o praise_v god_n aright_o unless_o we_o look_v upon_o the_o perfection_n of_o all_o misery_n we_o be_v in_o to_o the_o perfection_n of_o all_o happiness_n that_o by_o christ_n

business_n of_o this_o day_n remember_v from_o whence_o you_o be_v deliver_v take_v the_o rise_n of_o the_o misery_n there_o the_o way_n to_o value_v a_o mercy_n be_v to_o see_v a_o misery_n look_v back_o to_o the_o begin_n of_o your_o trouble_n and_o see_v the_o wonder_n god_n have_v wrought_v what_o sea_n have_v be_v divide_v for_o you_o to_o pass_v through_o remember_v how_o nigh_o you_o be_v to_o the_o enemy_n hand_n what_o enemy_n it_o be_v what_o their_o threat_n their_o malice_n their_o bloody_a resolution_n look_v on_o the_o strait_n you_o be_v in_o for_o ammunition_n provision_n and_o with_o what_o a_o mighty_a hand_n and_o stretched-out_a arm_n god_n do_v supply_v you_o and_o have_v rescue_v you_o look_v upon_o all_o the_o way_n of_o god_n towards_o you_o that_o you_o may_v return_v to_o he_o according_a to_o his_o work_n and_o rejoice_v in_o he_o it_o be_v a_o poor_a thing_n to_o have_v such_o a_o strong_a hold_v preserve_v such_o a_o cruel_a enemy_n subdue_v to_o be_v matter_n of_o your_o joy_n but_o let_v this_o that_o the_o lord_n of_o host_n be_v with_o you_o let_v that_o be_v the_o matter_n of_o your_o joy_n of_o your_o praise_n let_v temporal_a deliverance_n stir_v up_o within_o we_o a_o war_n against_o our_o lust_n our_o pride_n our_o self-end_n our_o looseness_n etc._n etc._n oh_o these_o be_v provoke_v thing_n which_o of_o themselves_o will_v work_v our_o destruction_n they_o be_v grave_n of_o sodom_n vine_n of_o gomorrah_n fight_v against_o these_o but_o let_v god_n be_v your_o joy_n let_v he_o be_v matter_n of_o your_o praise_n 2._o consider_v your_o demerit_n how_o little_a you_o deserve_v how_o just_o you_o may_v have_v perish_v and_o be_v both_o the_o prey_n and_o scorn_n of_o your_o bloodthirsty_a enemy_n he_o that_o think_v himself_o unworthy_a of_o any_o thing_n will_v be_v thankful_a for_o every_o thing_n content_a with_o the_o small_a mercy_n much_o more_o for_o such_o a_o concern_v one_o three_o look_v upon_o the_o worth_n the_o excellency_n of_o the_o mercy_n vouchsafe_v you_o nay_o how_o many_o mercy_n you_o enjoy_v how_o many_o misery_n you_o have_v escape_v by_o it_o the_o consideration_n of_o your_o condition_n with_o such_o mercy_n will_v set_v a_o high_a price_n upon_o what_o you_o now_o enjoy_v and_o provoke_v you_o to_o thankfulness_n how_o sad_a how_o true_o miserable_a will_v your_o life_n have_v be_v without_o wife_n child_n house_n friend_n estate_n without_o the_o presence_n of_o god_n in_o his_o ordinance_n and_o be_v not_o the_o enjoyment_n of_o all_o these_o and_o more_o worthy_a of_o
