whereby_o the_o pious_a man_n be_v describe_v i_o have_v pitch_v upon_o that_o of_o his_o uprightness_n to_o give_v a_o account_n of_o and_o to_o recommend_v to_o you_o at_o this_o time_n and_o of_o the_o several_a instance_n of_o the_o blessedness_n of_o such_o a_o man_n i_o have_v pitch_v upon_o that_o of_o safety_n and_o peace_n in_o the_o midst_n of_o perilous_a and_o troublesome_a time_n these_o two_o point_n i_o have_v choose_v to_o entertain_v you_o upon_o as_o judge_v they_o most_o suitable_a to_o the_o present_a occasion_n and_o to_o our_o present_a circumstance_n and_o we_o find_v they_o both_o join_v together_o in_o the_o word_n of_o the_o text_n to_o the_o upright_o there_o arise_v light_a in_o the_o darkness_n here_o than_o we_o have_v two_o thing_n to_o consider_v first_o the_o person_n to_o who_o the_o promise_n here_o make_v or_o the_o blessedness_n here_o mention_v do_v belong_v it_o be_v the_o upright_o man_n second_o the_o promise_n or_o the_o blessedness_n itself_o it_o be_v light_a in_o time_n of_o darkness_n i_o begin_v with_o the_o character_n of_o the_o person_n to_o who_o this_o promise_n be_v make_v he_o be_v the_o upright_o man_n or_o as_o in_o our_o more_o common_a language_n we_o express_v he_o the_o honest_a man_n the_o man_n of_o integrity_n we_o all_o know_v so_o well_o what_o be_v mean_v by_o these_o word_n that_o it_o will_v render_v the_o thing_n more_o difficult_a to_o offer_v critical_o to_o give_v light_n to_o they_o as_o all_o those_o general_a term_n whereby_o a_o man_n whole_a duty_n be_v express_v in_o scripture_n have_v their_o several_a respect_n and_o consideration_n which_o difference_n they_o one_o from_o the_o other_o though_o they_o be_v all_o equal_o comprehensive_a so_o have_v this_o term_n of_o uprightness_n that_o which_o it_o immediate_o and_o particular_o respect_v be_v the_o goodness_n of_o a_o man_n principle_n and_o the_o sutableness_n of_o his_o action_n to_o they_o or_o thus_o the_o conformity_n of_o a_o man_n mind_n to_o the_o eternal_a rule_n of_o righteousness_n and_o the_o conformity_n of_o his_o action_n to_o the_o principle_n of_o his_o mind_n this_o be_v that_o upon_o account_n of_o which_o any_o person_n be_v denominate_v upright_o and_o contrary_a to_o this_o be_v all_o hypocritical_a and_o partial_a deal_n in_o matter_n of_o our_o duty_n so_o that_o if_o we_o will_v give_v the_o definition_n of_o a_o upright_o man_n it_o shall_v be_v in_o such_o term_n as_o these_o he_o be_v a_o man_n that_o in_o all_o thing_n follow_v the_o dictate_v of_o his_o conscience_n or_o he_o be_v one_o that_o make_v his_o duty_n the_o rule_n of_o his_o action_n or_o he_o be_v one_o that_o always_o propose_v to_o himself_o righteous_a end_n and_o pursue_v those_o end_n in_o righteous_a way_n this_o be_v the_o general_a description_n of_o the_o upright_o man_n but_o for_o the_o more_o lively_o display_v of_o he_o and_o the_o render_v he_o as_o more_o amiable_a so_o more_o imitable_a it_o will_v be_v fit_a that_o we_o represent_v he_o a_o little_a more_o particular_o under_o those_o several_a respect_n and_o capacity_n in_o which_o his_o uprightness_n be_v principal_o see_v and_o express_v and_o here_o we_o must_v consider_v he_o with_o respect_n to_o god_n and_o with_o respect_n to_o men._n under_o the_o former_a consideration_n we_o be_v to_o view_v his_o religion_n under_o the_o latter_a his_o civil_a conversation_n and_o none_o ought_v to_o be_v surprise_v that_o in_o the_o character_n of_o a_o upright_o man_n we_o take_v notice_n of_o his_o
