for_o grace_n but_o there_o be_v some_o of_o this_o good_a new_a soil_n that_o grace_n now_o can_v hold_v and_o shall_v hold_v so_o that_o the_o gate_n of_o hell_n shall_v not_o prevail_v it_o be_v

you_o the_o watch_v rule_n that_o be_v to_o be_v observe_v in_o watch_v and_o the_o rule_n be_v these_o if_o you_o will_v watch_v over_o yourselves_o first_o count_z watchfulness_n your_o very_a life_n and_o life_n think_v if_o you_o let_v watchfulness_n go_v you_o let_v your_o life_n go_v for_o if_o once_o watchfulness_n go_v how_o dead_a be_v you_o in_o prayer_n and_o hear_v the_o word_n of_o god_n so_o that_o the_o security_n of_o the_o heart_n will_v be_v the_o death_n of_o the_o heart_n wherefore_o if_o we_o will_v go_v on_o in_o watch_v let_v we_o labour_n to_o keep_v this_o holy_a disposition_n count_v it_o your_o very_a life_n and_o think_v with_o yourselves_o i_o let_v life_n go_v if_o i_o let_v watchfulness_n go_v we_o use_v to_o say_v of_o sleep_n that_o it_o be_v the_o brother_n of_o death_n and_o 1_o thes_n 5._o 6._o we_o may_v see_v the_o phrase_n use_v by_o the_o apostle_n where_o wake_v be_v put_v for_o live_v and_o sleep_v for_o die_v that_o be_v the_o

therefore_o do_v thou_o find_v thyself_o to_o be_v out_o of_o frame_n and_o not_o watch_n over_o thy_o way_n then_o think_v with_o thyself_o that_o thou_o be_v a_o dead_a man_n and_o take_v up_o thy_o watch_n as_o fast_o as_o thou_o can_v again_o second_o thou_o must_v let_v thy_o watch_n stand_v catholical_o thing_n universal_o in_o all_o duty_n and_o all_o time_n watch_n thereunto_o and_o persevere_v therein_o we_o must_v not_o only_o watch_v but_o persevere_v be_v careful_a in_o the_o morning_n how_o we_o may_v begin_v our_o watch_n in_o the_o day_n how_o we_o may_v spend_v it_o at_o night_n how_o we_o may_v end_v it_o so_o we_o must_v watch_n in_o all_o duty_n when_o we_o go_v to_o prayer_n we_o must_v watch_n in_o prayer_n when_o you_o go_v about_o your_o calling_n watch_n about_o they_o when_o we_o be_v alone_o we_o shall_v be_v watchful_a and_o when_o we_o be_v in_o company_n we_o shall_v be_v watchful_a for_o the_o devil_n and_o our_o own_o soul_n plot_v a_o great_a

three_o we_o shall_v proportion_v our_o watch_n according_a about_o as_o the_o duty_n be_v we_o take_v in_o hand_n so_o our_o watch_n may_v be_v there_o be_v one_o kind_a of_o watch_v for_o one_o kind_n of_o duty_n another_o for_o another_o if_o we_o be_v to_o go_v about_o our_o calling_n than_o our_o watch_n must_v be_v against_o distrustfulness_n and_o covetousness_n and_o distract_n care_v that_o so_o we_o may_v not_o be_v over_o head_n and_o ear_n in_o the_o world_n if_o our_o duty_n be_v prayer_n we_o must_v have_v a_o eye_n to_o the_o promise_n and_o take_v hold_v on_o the_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n and_o come_v in_o his_o mediation_n and_o his_o only_a so_o whatsoever_o duty_n it_o be_v if_o it_o be_v hear_v of_o the_o word_n of_o god_n there_o be_v a_o watchfulness_n to_o be_v

lord_n work_n upon_o i_o i_o shall_v never_o lie_v down_o under_o he_o therefore_o we_o shall_v be_v watchful_a that_o we_o may_v practise_v and_o be_v able_a to_o apply_v whatsoever_o be_v speak_v to_o we_o we_o be_v to_o keep_v a_o due_a watchfulness_n for_o that_o which_o be_v due_a to_o one_o thing_n be_v not_o due_a to_o another_o that_o which_o be_v sufficient_a for_o one_o be_v not_o for_o another_o hindrance_n four_o take_v heed_n of_o all_o thing_n that_o may_v hinder_v watchfulness_n and_o first_o take_v heed_n of_o vain_a company_n if_o we_o company_n will_v be_v watchful_a we_o must_v exercise_v ourselves_o with_o those_o that_o be_v godly_a to_o be_v with_o secure_a christian_n be_v the_o way_n to_o be_v secure_a this_o will_v hinder_v a_o man_n a_o man_n have_v better_o be_v alone_o then_o be_v in_o bad_a company_n as_o the_o prophet_n david_n say_v psal_n 102._o 7._o i_o watch_v and_o be_o alone_a as_o a_o sparrow_n on_o the_o house_n top_n he_o be_v

unless_o he_o prize_v the_o communion_n of_o saint_n second_o a_o man_n shall_v be_v sober_a take_v heed_n of_o drunkenness_n spiritual_a drunkenness_n take_v heed_n of_o the_o care_n of_o this_o

motive_n of_o exhortation_n to_o exhort_v we_o to_o be_v careful_a of_o this_o duty_n and_o there_o be_v great_a need_n of_o it_o first_o we_o all_o desire_n to_o do_v well_o now_o how_o can_v we_o

of_o horror_n and_o fear_v and_o quake_v it_o be_v because_o they_o do_v not_o watch_v as_o it_o be_v with_o the_o five_o wise_a virgin_n they_o be_v something_o wise_a not_o like_o the_o foolish_a but_o they_o slumber_v too_o now_o when_o the_o bridegroom_n come_v there_o be_v a_o cry_n they_o make_v a_o outcry_n and_o a_o skrieking_a and_o a_o howl_n they_o be_v undo_v the_o bridegroom_n be_v
