who_o affect_v sublimity_n before_o they_o be_v establish_v in_o humility_n will_v never_o come_v to_o any_o strength_n and_o consistency_n in_o virtue_n and_o will_v bring_v but_o little_a honour_n to_o the_o profession_n of_o the_o gospel_n what_o mad_a work_n do_v those_o poor_a enthusiast_n make_v in_o religion_n who_o be_v altogether_o for_o the_o rapture_n of_o divine_a love_n and_o contemplation_n before_o they_o have_v mortifi_n do_v their_o affection_n and_o lust_n who_o pretend_v to_o the_o great_a perfection_n when_o they_o want_v the_o first_o rudiment_n of_o moral_a virtue_n and_o think_v themselves_o high_o advance_v in_o spiritual_a wisdom_n when_o they_o be_v not_o so_o much_o as_o under_o the_o conduct_n of_o common_a prudence_n 3._o if_o we_o will_v be_v prudent_o religious_a we_o must_v never_o engage_v too_o vehement_o in_o thing_n of_o a_o indifferent_a nature_n there_o be_v substantial_a duty_n enough_o to_o take_v up_o all_o the_o fervour_n and_o

superstitious_a fancy_n or_o unnecessary_a scruple_n of_o conscience_n when_o we_o plain_o perceive_v that_o we_o be_v sincere_o religious_a and_o that_o we_o have_v a_o clear_a integrity_n of_o heart_n let_v we_o not_o cloud_v it_o by_o melancholy_a surmise_n when_o our_o conscience_n be_v right_a and_o sound_a let_v we_o not_o physic_v it_o too_o much_o by_o needless_a and_o perplex_v
