whether_o it_o be_v simple_o unlawful_a for_o a_o man_n to_o desire_v any_o thing_n that_o he_o want_v and_o to_o wish_v that_o his_o estate_n be_v better_v or_o whether_o he_o must_v always_o

be_v the_o great_a thing_n in_o the_o world_n we_o may_v nay_o we_o ought_v to_o desire_v our_o own_o salvation_n and_o all_o the_o mean_n of_o it_o both_o first_o of_o all_o and_o with_o the_o

a_o second_o degree_n neither_o above_o nor_o equal_a with_o the_o former_a therefore_o first_o of_o all_o we_o must_v desire_v they_o as_o it_o be_v the_o will_n of_o god_n to_o bestow_v upon_o we_o and_o as_o he_o in_o his_o wisdom_n do_v better_a know_v then_o ourselves_o what_o will_v make_v we_o most_o fit_a to_o serve_v he_o which_o will_v of_o he_o be_v first_o reveal_v unto_o we_o in_o

they_o always_o bring_v with_o they_o the_o abuse_n of_o the_o thing_n we_o desire_v for_o as_o the_o people_n do_v inordinate_o desire_v any_o food_n save_o man_n so_o when_o they_o have_v it_o they_o glut_v themselves_o therewith_o as_o psal_n 78._o 29._o so_o they_o do_v eat_v &_o be_v fill_v for_o he_o give_v they_o their_o desire_n they_o be_v not_o turn_v from_o their_o lust_n but_o the_o meat_n be_v yet_o in_o their_o mouth_n when_o the_o wrath_n of_o god_n come_v upon_o they_o where_o he_o note_v their_o behaviour_n that_o they_o do_v not_o only_o eat_v but_o stuff_v themselves_o till_o they_o be_v full_a and_o they_o satisfy_v their_o lust_n and_o like_a bruit_n beast_n as_o their_o persuasion_n of_o the_o thing_n be_v unreasonable_a so_o their_o affection_n to_o they_o be_v intemperate_a and_o the_o use_n of_o they_o unlawful_a and_o this_o must_v needs_o follow_v it_o for_o beside_o that_o our_o own_o affection_n if_o they_o be_v not_o rule_v by_o god_n spirit_n be_v heady_a and_o strong_a and_o ready_a to_o blind_v our_o understanding_n it_o be_v the_o just_a judgement_n of_o god_n upon_o we_o in_o punish_v our_o unlawful_a desire_n to_o suffer_v we_o to_o fall_v into_o the_o abuse_n of_o the_o thing_n therefore_o as_o we_o must_v always_o desire_v the_o thing_n here_o below_o but_o in_o that_o measure_n that_o we_o shall_v so_o we_o must_v pray_v unto_o god_n that_o together_o with_o they_o he_o will_v teach_v we_o the_o right_a use_n of_o they_o &_o we_o must_v not_o imagine_v that_o if_o we_o have_v they_o we_o shall_v be_v happy_a and_o bless_a but_o pray_v the_o lord_n that_o we_o may_v have_v they_o with_o his_o favour_n and_o blessing_n and_o that_o by_o abuse_v of_o they_o we_o never_o offend_v his_o majesty_n this_o we_o find_v to_o be_v true_a in_o all_o the_o commodity_n of_o this_o life_n by_o experience_n he_o that_o ambitious_o seek_v honour_n be_v proud_a when_o he_o have_v it_o and_o know_v not_o how_o to_o use_v it_o the_o covetous_a man_n as_o he_o care_v not_o how_o he_o come_v by_o his_o riches_n so_o he_o can_v tell_v how_o to_o spend_v they_o the_o voluptuous_a man_n as_o his_o desire_n be_v
