idea_n the_o royal_a prophet_n entertain_v of_o the_o eminency_n of_o that_o blessing_n which_o he_o endeavour_v to_o illustrate_v by_o so_o valuable_a a_o comparison_n unity_n then_o be_v indeed_o like_o this_o precious_a ointment_n with_o which_o only_o those_o be_v anoint_v who_o god_n dese_v peculiarly_a to_o favour_n it_o ought_v to_o be_v esteem_v among_o our_o chief_a treasure_n and_o find_v a_o place_n among_o our_o most_o valuable_a possession_n and_o its_o composition_n ought_v to_o be_v of_o such_o only_a who_o be_v qualify_v by_o their_o intrinsic_a value_n and_o have_v a_o character_n of_o worth_a to_o recommend_v they_o but_o two_o another_o thing_n observable_a in_o this_o allusion_n be_v the_o delightfulness_n of_o that_o thing_n to_o which_o the_o psalmist_n here_o compare_v the_o unity_n of_o brethren_n if_o we_o will_v look_v back_o and_o consider_v the_o ingredient_n of_o which_o it_o be_v compound_v we_o shall_v find_v it_o make_v up_o of_o perfume_n and_o oil_n the_o former_a be_v proper_a to_o delight_v the_o sense_n not_o only_o of_o ourselves_o but_o of_o other_o too_o by_o spread_v abroad_o their_o grateful_a odour_n the_o latter_a be_v make_v use_n of_o to_o refresh_v and_o exhilerate_v to_o cause_v the_o face_n to_o shine_v and_o to_o give_v a_o cheerful_a countenance_n and_o therefore_o from_o the_o consideration_n of_o this_o we_o may_v infer_v how_o due_a a_o notion_n the_o psalmist_n have_v of_o that_o pleasure_n which_o result_v from_o the_o unity_n of_o brethren_n by_o compare_v it_o to_o that_o which_o be_v so_o very_o delightful_a unity_n then_o be_v indeed_o like_o a_o odorous_a ointment_n who_o grateful_a sweetness_n entertain_v both_o ourselves_o and_o other_o and_o who_o balm_o softness_n not_o only_o spread_v upon_o the_o face_n the_o joyful_a livery_n of_o mirth_n and_o cheerfulness_n but_o fill_v the_o heart_n too_o like_o the_o oil_n of_o gladness_n with_o a_o large_a measure_n of_o briskness_n and_o alacrity_n and_o to_o these_o two_o quality_n of_o this_o ointment_n its_o preciousness_n and_o delightfulness_n the_o psalmist_n undoubted_o refer_v in_o his_o character_n of_o unity_n when_o he_o tell_v we_o how_o good_a and_o how_o pleasant_a it_o be_v but_o three_o there_o be_v yet_o another_o thing_n observable_a in_o this_o allusion_n and_o that_o be_v a_o description_n of_o the_o dissusiveness_n of_o this_o ointment_n we_o be_v tell_v that_o this_o precious_a ointment_n though_o it_o be_v pour_v upon_o aaron_n head_n yet_o be_v it_o not_o confine_v whole_o to_o that_o but_o run_v down_o upon_o his_o other_o part_n his_o beard_n for_o instance_n nor_o only_o so_o but_o be_v communicate_v in_o some_o measure_n to_o such_o thing_n as_o have_v the_o remote_a relation_n to_o he_o it_o go_v down_o even_o to_o the_o skirt_n of_o his_o garment_n and_o this_o may_v serve_v to_o let_v we_o understand_v how_o just_a a_o apprehension_n the_o psalmist_n have_v of_o the_o largeness_n and_o extensiveness_n of_o those_o benefit_n which_o be_v the_o necessary_a consequence_n of_o this_o unity_n of_o brethren_n unity_n then_o be_v indeed_o like_o that_o precious_a ointment_n which_o though_o it_o enrich_v the_o head_n the_o uppermost_a and_o govern_v member_n with_o the_o large_a stock_n of_o refresh_a moisture_n though_o it_o impart_v to_o they_o its_o most_o considerable_a advantage_n yet_o have_v it_o a_o due_a and_o proportionable_a respect_n to_o the_o benefit_n and_o interest_n of_o subordinate_a and_o inferiors_n once_o it_o run_v down_o upon_o they_o also_o nay_o it_o have_v a_o regard_n even_o to_o all_o such_o as_o have_v any_o distant_a dependence_n upon_o they_o and_o be_v therefore_o compare_v but_o to_o the_o skirt_n of_o their_o garment_n and_o this_o consideration_n shall_v have_v a_o double_a good_a effect_n first_o upon_o the_o superior_n and_o governor_n in_o a_o society_n to_o inform_v they_o that_o they_o must_v not_o think_v to_o engross_v to_o themselves_o the_o entire_a advantage_n of_o such_o a_o union_n that_o they_o have_v indeed_o a_o just_a pretention_n to_o those_o that_o be_v great_a and_o most_o considerable_a but_o not_o so_o as_o to_o exclude_v their_o inferior_a brethren_n from_o such_o mean_a benefit_n as_o be_v just_o their_o right_n but_o they_o ought_v to_o understand_v that_o this_o precious_a ointment_n be_v pour_v upon_o they_o not_o to_o rest_v there_o and_o proceed_v no_o further_o but_o to_o descend_v from_o they_o upon_o the_o rest_n of_o the_o society_n second_o this_o consideration_n shall_v have_v a_o good_a effect_n upon_o such_o as_o be_v the_o inferior_a member_n they_o ought_v to_o reflect_v how_o just_a it_o be_v that_o there_o shall_v be_v difference_n of_o advantage_n as_o well_o as_o of_o degree_n that_o a_o roll_a member_n be_v worthy_a of_o double_a honour_n and_o therefore_o shall_v never_o repine_v nor_o murmur_v that_o that_o be_v not_o pour_v immediate_o upon_o they_o which_o be_v only_o design_v to_o run_v down_o to_o they_o but_o shall_v rather_o rejoice_v to_o see_v this_o precious_a ointment_n shed_v large_o upon_o their_o governor_n that_o so_o the_o great_a proportion_n of_o it_o may_v descend_v upon_o themselves_o and_o these_o be_v the_o thing_n which_o seem_v most_o observable_a in_o this_o elegant_a allusion_n of_o the_o psalmist_n its_o excellency_n its_o delightfulness_n and_o the_o diffusiveness_n of_o its_o advantage_n i_o shall_v conclude_v this_o discourse_n by_o endeavour_v to_o make_v out_o the_o agreeableness_n of_o this_o allusion_n with_o the_o present_a occasion_n as_o this_o allusion_n consider_v in_o its_o general_a extent_n be_v just_o applicable_a to_o any_o body_n of_o man_n who_o
