kick_v against_o the_o prick_n and_o break_v throw_v all_o the_o restraint_n of_o conscience_n to_o run_v out_o after_o thy_o pleasure_n and_o extravagancy_n thy_o idol_n and_o thy_o harlot_n a_o

do_v he_o not_o see_v thy_o way_n and_o count_v all_o thy_o step_n do_v thou_o not_o know_v he_o be_v aware_a of_o thou_o and_o then_o with_o what_o face_n can_v thou_o go_v into_o his_o presence_n and_o take_v on_o thou_o to_o do_v any_o thing_n at_o prayer_n in_o this_o case_n thou_o be_v like_a to_o make_v a_o scoff_n at_o it_o thin_a to_o have_v any_o serious_a concern_v in_o it_o and_o

they_o reset_v in_o their_o heart_n will_v never_o abide_v it_o when_o it_o bring_v the_o sin_n to_o sight_n and_o be_v a_o kind_n of_o arraign_v themselves_o at_o the_o bar_n of_o heaven_n therefore_o they_o abstain_v from_o it_o or_o be_v so_o very_o spare_v in_o it_o not_o only_o for_o shame_n that_o the_o holy_a thing_n may_v not_o confound_v they_o but_o for_o dread_v also_o lest_o they_o shall_v raise_v the_o evil_a spirit_n to_o torment_n they_o but_o will_v this_o serve_v the_o turn_n and_o shall_v they_o who_o go_v on_o thus_o perverse_o in_o their_o way_n so_o guard_n and_o defend_v themselves_o in_o the_o pessession_n of_o their_o sin_n o_o silly_a idle_a attempt_n of_o desperate_a creature_n for_o all_o must_v come_v out_o and_o the_o conscience_n which_o they_o now_o so_o strangle_v and_o provoke_v will_v one_o day_n return_v but_o with_o the_o great_a force_n and_o fury_n upon_o they_o it_o be_v vain_a then_o to_o cover_v your_o transgression_n and_o think_v to_o hide_v iniquity_n in_o your_o bosom_n or_o with_o a_o high_a hand_n to_o get_v the_o mastery_n of_o your_o conviction_n and_o make_v a_o league_n and_o peace_n with_o your_o sin_n that_o shall_v hold_v inviolable_a for_o be_v sure_a they_o will_v find_v you_o out_o and_o for_o all_o these_o thing_n god_n will_v bring_v you_o into_o judgement_n and_o there_o be_v no_o way_n for_o you_o to_o escape_v the_o danger_n of_o they_o but_o roundly_o to_o judge_v yourselves_o for_o they_o and_o if_o you_o seek_v the_o lord_n to_o let_v these_o go_v their_o way_n and_o as_o ever_o you_o will_v see_v lin_v with_o comfort_n cast_v out_o the_o curse_a thing_n that_o set_v he_o against_o you_o and_o down_o with_o those_o wall_n of_o separation_n that_o keep_v you_o and_o your_o prayer_n from_o he_o and_o away_o with_o the_o bosom_n lust_n and_o darling_n sin_n that_o spoil_v all_o the_o dearness_n with_o heaven_n and_o that_o cut_v off_o your_o fair_a correspondence_n above_o o_o see_v the_o desperate_a strait_n into_o which_o you_o run_v yourselves_o by_o continue_v under_o the_o love_n and_o power_n of_o your_o sin_n for_o if_o so_o you_o hold_v to_o iniquity_n it_o will_v certain_o be_v your_o ruin_n and_o you_o can_v come_v out_o of_o it_o without_o the_o help_n of_o your_o prayer_n and_o yet_o alas_o what_o hearty_a prayer_n can_v you_o make_v against_o the_o sin_n which_o you_o love_v in_o your_o heart_n and_o let_v even_o this_o turn_v your_o heart_n for_o ever_o against_o those_o sin_n that_o they_o blast_v all_o the_o joy_n and_o comfort_n of_o your_o life_n and_o turn_v you_o out_o of_o the_o best_a refuge_n in_o the_o world_n and_o make_v that_o mighty_a help_n of_o poor_a sinner_n insignificant_a and_o helpless_a unto_o you_o by_o keep_v you_o from_o it_o or_o destroy_v all_o the_o advantage_n you_o may_v get_v by_o it_o and_o make_v that_o bless_a god_n the_o terror_n of_o your_o soul_n who_o shall_v be_v the_o only_a joy_n of_o your_o heart_n these_o thing_n consider_v i_o hope_v you_o will_v not_o forsake_v your_o prayer_n to_o cleave_v to_o your_o sin_n but_o fly_v from_o your_o sin_n to_o get_v such_o a_o worthy_a peace_n in_o your_o mind_n that_o you_o may_v go_v sweet_o on_o with_o your_o prayer_n and_o now_o before_o i_o offer_v any_o advice_n for_o the_o management_n of_o this_o duty_n let_v i_o settle_v some_o preliminary_n to_o make_v the_o way_n for_o these_o family-prayer_n and_o i_o will_v propose_v but_o these_o two_o thing_n the_o fix_v of_o some_o state_v time_n for_o prayer_n and_o also_o the_o frequent_a return_v of_o your_o prayer_n that_o you_o may_v make_v sure_a of_o they_o and_o that_o you_o may_v be_v as_o osten_n as_o be_v needful_a in_o they_o 1._o make_v sure_a of_o some_o state_v time_n for_o prayer_n though_o i_o tie_v up_o none_o to_o canonical_a hour_n or_o to_o any_o other_o certain_a hour_n in_o particular_a yet_o i_o will_v have_v you_o to_o fix_v upon_o some_o yourselves_o after_o you_o have_v each_o consult_v your_o several_a conveniency_n for_o the_o fit_a season_n which_o you_o find_v to_o be_v most_o proper_a and_o advantageous_a for_o the_o purpose_n determine_v the_o time_n with_o yourselves_o and_o let_v your_o people_n know_v that_o then_o you_o expect_v their_o attendance_n with_o you_o before_o the_o lord_n that_o so_o all_o may_v cast_v to_o be_v ready_a and_o to_o get_v all_o that_o hinder_v as_o much_o as_o they_o be_v able_a out_o of_o the_o way_n for_o the_o corrupt_a flesh_n will_v be_v apt_a to_o frame_v many_o evasion_n to_o carry_v you_o off_o your_o bias_n with_o other_o matter_n when_o you_o be_v under_o no_o such_o rule_n but_o only_o for_o pray_v when_o the_o spirit_n move_v and_o if_o you_o do_v not_o fix_v upon_o your_o time_n name_v and_o appoint_v the_o thing_n will_v be_v in_o danger_n often_o to_o be_v forget_v and_o thrust_v out_o and_o to_o slip_v and_o drop_v to_o the_o ground_n thus_o tie_v yourselves_o up_o then_o where_o you_o have_v not_o already_o and_o keep_v as_o near_o as_o you_o can_v to_o the_o set_a time_n that_o nothing_o under_o such_o unavoidable_a impediment_n as_o you_o can_v not_o prevent_v or_o foresee_v may_v put_v you_o beside_o they_o and_o that_o none_o through_o their_o fault_n nor_o unless_o upon_o any_o just_a and_o needful_a account_n may_v be_v want_v but_o ready_a at_o call_n for_o the_o service_n though_o i_o deny_v not_o but_o prayer_n may_v sometime_o give_v place_n to_o a_o less_o work_n than_o itself_o when_o it_o be_v a_o fit_a and_o
