riches_n all_o his_o fullness_n all_o the_o benefit_n which_o he_o have_v purchase_v at_o so_o dear_a a_o price_n and_o yet_o the_o offer_n be_v make_v light_n of_o how_o much_o be_v contemn_v when_o

do_v he_o offer_v his_o own_o all-sufficient-self_n i_o myself_o be_o you_o if_o you_o will_v turn_v to_o i_o and_o become_v sincere_o i_o i_o will_v be_v a_o god_n to_o you_o all_o my_o attribute_n

this_o be_v such_o a_o sin_n as_o do_v deserve_v the_o eternal_a loss_n of_o what_o be_v offer_v and_o the_o feel_n of_o everlasting_a wrath_n be_v just_a since_o such_o infinite_a and_o everlasting_a goodness_n have_v be_v despise_v i_o may_v also_o add_v that_o the_o sinner_n be_v tell_v of_o this_o eternal_a punishment_n beforehand_o therefore_o if_o his_o lust_n be_v so_o dear_a that_o he_o will_v venture_v to_o be_v damn_v rather_o than_o part_v with_o they_o when_o those_o lust_v that_o war_n against_o his_o soul_n have_v quite_o undo_v he_o and_o bring_v he_o down_o to_o hell_n indeed_o he_o can_v charge_v god_n with_o injustice_n but_o he_o must_v blame_v himself_o because_o when_o warn_v of_o hell_n and_o wrath_n he_o will_v not_o fear_v and_o flee_v from_o it_o i_o come_v
