three_o term_n now_o i_o come_v to_o the_o second_o task_n as_o i_o have_v go_v along_o in_o open_v the_o general_n in_o several_a particular_n i_o have_v prove_v the_o doctrine_n that_o it_o be_v so_o but_o may_v some_o say_v what_o ground_n be_v there_o that_o the_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n shall_v desire_v this_o of_o every_o soul_n that_o he_o will_v love_v and_o marry_v and_o have_v communion_n with_o that_o it_o shall_v thus_o forsake_v its_o own_o people_n and_o its_o father_n house_n why_o shall_v christ_n hold_v the_o soul_n to_o this_o hard_a meat_n i_o shall_v therefore_o in_o the_o next_o place_n show_v you_o the_o reason_n of_o it_o and_o there_o be_v a_o very_a great_a deal_n of_o reason_n for_o it_o 1._o because_o it_o be_v the_o very_a law_n of_o marriage_n gen._n 2._o 24._o therefore_o shall_v a_o man_n forsake_v father_n and_o mother_n and_o cleave_v to_o his_o wife_n the_o lord_n christ_n marry_v himself_o to_o the_o soul_n it_o be_v write_v i_o will_v betrothe_v thou_o unto_o i_o yea_o i_o will_v betrothe_v thou_o unto_o i_o for_o this_o cause_n the_o soul_n shall_v forsake_v its_o own_o people_n and_o its_o father_n house_n and_o shall_v cleave_v to_o its_o christ_n for_o this_o cause_n because_o the_o soul_n be_v marry_v or_o about_o to_o marry_v to_o the_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n and_o therefore_o must_v look_v to_o do_v as_o marry_v person_n use_v to_o do_v leave_v all_o for_o their_o husband_n 2._o a_o second_o reason_n be_v because_o while_o the_o soul_n live_v at_o home_n with_o its_o own_o people_n and_o at_o its_o father_n house_n it_o can_v be_v beautiful_a nor_o desirable_a our_o own_o people_n be_v a_o filthy_a people_n our_o father_n house_n a_o nast_a house_n the_o soul_n while_o it_o have_v leave_v that_o can_v be_v beautiful_a nor_o desirable_a the_o most_o beautiful_a creature_n you_o know_v if_o she_o be_v bring_v up_o by_o sluttish_a people_n as_o we_o say_v and_o go_v in_o a_o filthy_a habit_n there_o be_v a_o cloud_n cast_v over_o her_o beauty_n so_o it_o be_v with_o a_o soul_n while_o it_o have_v leave_v its_o sin_n and_o vain_a company_n and_o pride_n and_o ambition_n and_o pleasure_n and_o riches_n and_o selfe-righteousnesse_n it_o can_v be_v beautiful_a in_o christ_n eye_n now_o beauty_n be_v the_o attractive_a of_o the_o soul_n the_o soul_n must_v see_v a_o beauty_n in_o that_o which_o it_o let_v out_o itself_o to_o in_o desire_v let_v that_o be_v a_o second_o reason_n 3._o because_o there_o can_v be_v a_o cleave_a to_o christ_n unless_o there_o be_v a_o part_n with_o these_o christ_n require_v the_o high_a love_n of_o our_o soul_n it_o be_v the_o first_o commandment_n you_o know_v with_o our_o saviour_n gloss_n upon_o it_o thou_o shall_v love_v the_o lord_n thy_o god_n with_o all_o thy_o heart_n and_o all_o thy_o soul_n hence_o christ_n tell_v we_o no_o man_n can_v serve_v two_o master_n you_o can_v serve_v god_n and_o mammon_n that_o soul_n that_o will_v hug_v sin_n must_v hate_v god_n that_o soul_n that_o will_v be_v a_o companion_n of_o jesus_n christ_n and_o a_o companion_n of_o saint_n must_v not_o be_v a_o companion_n of_o sinner_n for_o what_o fellowship_n have_v christ_n with_o belial_n righteousness_n with_o unrighteousness_n light_n with_o darkness_n the_o temple_n of_o god_n with_o idol_n and_o so_o the_o rest_n your_o soul_n can_v love_v two_o theng_n with_o a_o high_a love_n 2._o you_o can_v in_o heart_n true_o cleave_v to_o two_o contrary_n there_o be_v a_o three_o reason_n especial_o if_o you_o consider_v 4._o that_o god_n be_v a_o jealous_a god_n you_o meet_v with_o the_o phrase_n often_o and_o give_v as_o a_o reason_n why_o they_o shall_v do_v this_o or_o that_o for_o the_o lord_n thy_o god_n be_v a_o jealous_a god_n jealousy_n be_v a_o passion_n in_o the_o soul_n non_fw-fr patience_n consortium_fw-la in_o re_fw-la amatà_fw-la say_v aquinas_n that_o will_v not_o endure_v or_o that_o make_v the_o soul_n that_o it_o will_v not_o endure_v any_o share_n in_o the_o object_n belove_v the_o woman_n that_o have_v a_o jealous_a husband_n must_v leave_v all_o her_o old_a
