take_v possession_n of_o thou_o by_o his_o holy_a spirit_n who_o be_v continual_o work_v in_o thou_o to_o dispose_v thou_o by_o put_v off_o thyself_o and_o all_o selfish_a inclination_n and_o desire_n and_o by_o abandon_v all_o that_o be_v dear_a to_o thou_o to_o offer_v up_o thyself_o as_o abraham_n offer_v up_o his_o isaac_n a_o sacrifice_n unto_o god_n and_o therefore_o thou_o can_v not_o without_o the_o gild_n of_o the_o most_o abominable_a sacrilege_n take_v upon_o thou_o to_o be_v any_o thing_n or_o to_o do_v any_o thing_n but_o for_o god_n and_o to_o god_n see_v 1._o corinth_n 6.19_o 20._o 5._o thou_o have_v make_v a_o show_n a_o outward_a profession_n of_o give_v up_o thyself_o to_o god_n and_o be_v god_n long_a ago_o this_o thou_o do_v at_o thy_o baptism_n when_o renounce_v the_o devil_n the_o world_n and_o the_o flesh_n thou_o do_v give_v up_o thyself_o to_o god_n the_o father_n son_n and_o holy_a ghost_n and_o this_o profession_n thou_o have_v probable_o renew_v often_o at_o the_o table_n of_o the_o lord_n where_o commemorate_n and_o give_v thanks_o to_o god_n for_o the_o great_a expression_n of_o the_o great_a love_n to_o man_n that_o ever_o be_v thou_o do_v offer_v and_o present_v thyself_o thy_o soul_n and_o body_n to_o be_v a_o reasonable_a holy_a and_o lively_a sacrifice_n to_o the_o lord_n and_o thou_o have_v seem_v to_o the_o world_n to_o this_o very_a day_n to_o own_o all_o this_o and_o therefore_o if_o thou_o be_v not_o if_o thou_o will_v not_o be_v god_n after_o all_o this_o by_o the_o full_a consent_n of_o thy_o heart_n thou_o be_v the_o false_a and_o vile_a hypocrite_n upon_o earth_n and_o a_o accurse_a traitor_n to_o thy_o great_a creator_n to_o thy_o gracious_a and_o love_a saviour_n to_o all_o this_o thou_o may_v add_v 6._o that_o this_o be_v that_o holiness_n which_o the_o scripture_n so_o frequent_o recommend_v unto_o thou_o and_o without_o which_o thou_o can_v not_o hope_v to_o see_v the_o lord_n when_o thing_n be_v separate_v from_o common_a uses_n and_o be_v give_v up_o to_o god_n so_o as_o never_o to_o be_v make_v use_v of_o but_o for_o he_o or_o in_o his_o worship_n and_o service_n they_o be_v call_v holy_a thing_n and_o so_o indeed_o they_o be_v so_o far_o as_o thing_n can_v be_v thus_o when_o thou_o have_v separate_v thyself_o take_v off_o thy_o heart_n from_o all_o create_a thing_n and_o have_v give_v up_o thyself_o to_o god_n to_o be_v his_o and_o only_o he_o in_o faithful_a service_n and_o obedience_n for_o ever_o thou_o be_v holy_a and_o not_o till_o then_o and_o if_o thou_o think_v otherwise_o thou_o do_v dangerous_o deceive_v thyself_o add_v to_o this_o 7._o that_o this_o be_v thy_o perfection_n and_o the_o great_a perfection_n thou_o be_v capable_a of_o thou_o can_v do_v nothing_o better_a than_o to_o resign_v thyself_o to_o god_n and_o thou_o can_v not_o possible_o be_v in_o any_o better_a state_n than_o in_o a_o state_n of_o pure_a resignation_n to_o he_o and_o therefore_o in_o the_o last_o place_n 8._o thou_o may_v safe_o believe_v that_o this_o be_v thy_o happiness_n and_o the_o great_a happiness_n thou_o can_v attain_v unto_o the_o truth_n be_v these_o three_o word_n holiness_n perfection_n and_o happiness_n though_o they_o differ_v in_o sound_n be_v all_o the_o very_a same_o in_o sense_n and_o signification_n he_o that_o say_v that_o the_o saint_n in_o heaven_n be_v bless_v say_v no_o other_o thing_n than_o this_o that_o they_o be_v make_v perfect_a and_o he_o that_o say_v that_o they_o be_v make_v perfect_a say_v no_o other_o thing_n than_o this_o that_o they_o be_v full_o &_o complete_o holy_a and_o he_o that_o speak_v this_o say_v no_o more_o than_o that_o they_o be_v entire_o god_n that_o they_o be_v perfect_o disengage_v from_o every_o thing_n that_o may_v withhold_v they_o in_o the_o least_o from_o he_o and_o so_o unite_v to_o he_o that_o nothing_o can_v separate_v or_o dissolve_v the_o union_n so_o that_o all_o that_o i_o will_v now_o persuade_v thou_o to_o be_v but_o to_o make_v thyself_o as_o periect_v and_o happy_a as_o thou_o can_v be_v and_o methinks_v in_o this_o case_n it_o shall_v be_v no_o hard_a matter_n to_o prevail_v with_o thou_o when_o thou_o can_v not_o but_o see_v thy_o interest_n in_o that_o which_o be_v recommend_v to_o thou_o as_o thy_o duty_n it_o be_v impossible_a if_o thou_o be_v the_o man_n i_o now_o suppose_v thou_o to_o be_v but_o thou_o must_v yield_v thy_o full_a consent_n unto_o it_o and_o therefore_o i_o leave_v these_o thing_n to_o thy_o serious_a thought_n and_o proceed_v to_o give_v thou_o some_o direction_n how_o to_o perform_v this_o good_a and_o happy_a work_n §_o 2._o that_o thou_o be_v concern_v to_o take_v the_o great_a care_n that_o may_v be_v to_o do_v it_o well_o i_o presume_v i_o need_v not_o tell_v thou_o and_o therefore_o as_o i_o do_v earnest_o recommend_v the_o follow_a direction_n to_o thou_o so_o i_o hope_v thou_o will_v not_o sail_v to_o practice_v they_o and_o because_o it_o be_v a_o matter_n of_o great_a moment_n in_o every_o thing_n to_o begin_v well_o i_o advise_v thou_o 1._o to_o separate_v thyself_o for_o some_o time_n from_o the_o world_n retire_v into_o thy_o closet_n or_o into_o some_o secret_a place_n where_o no_o eye_n may_v see_v thou_o and_o nothing_o divert_v or_o disturb_v thou_o and_o when_o thou_o be_v there_o consider_v that_o thou_o be_v come_v thither_o about_o a_o business_n of_o the_o great_a importance_n to_o thou_o thou_o be_v to_o give_v thyself_o to_o god_n to_o unite_v thyself_o most_o firm_o to_o he_o but_o of_o thyself_o and_o without_o god_n special_a grace_n thou_o be_v not_o able_a to_o do_v it_o if_o he_o do_v not_o draw_v thou_o if_o he_o do_v not_o overcome_v thy_o sorry_a heart_n by_o the_o sweet_a and_o powerful_a influence_n of_o his_o love_n thou_o will_v make_v but_o faint_a and_o feign_a offer_n of_o thyself_o unto_o he_o and_o therefore_o thou_o must_v not_o fail_v in_o the_o first_o place_n 1._o to_o fall_v upon_o thy_o sense_n and_o with_o the_o great_a reverence_n and_o submission_n to_o acquaint_v he_o with_o the_o desire_n of_o thy_o soul_n and_o to_o beg_v his_o favourable_a acceptance_n of_o they_o and_o his_o blessing_n upon_o they_o and_o if_o thou_o know_v not_o how_o to_o do_v it_o better_o thou_o may_v make_v use_n of_o this_o form_n of_o word_n my_o lord_n and_o my_o god_n thou_o know_v the_o very_a bottom_n of_o my_o heart_n and_o my_o desire_n be_v not_o hide_v from_o thou_o i_o be_o encourage_v by_o my_o own_o happy_a experience_n of_o thy_o

favour_n from_o thou_o i_o be_o ashamed_a when_o i_o think_v how_o i_o have_v demean_v myself_o hitherto_o towards_o thou_o and_o that_o i_o have_v live_v so_o long_a a_o stranger_n yea_o a_o enemy_n to_o thou_o take_v upon_o i_o to_o dispose_v of_o myself_o and_o to_o please_v myself_o in_o the_o main_a course_n of_o my_o life_n without_o the_o least_o regard_n to_o thou_o i_o abhor_v myself_o for_o it_o and_o acknowledge_v that_o i_o deserve_v for_o ever_o to_o be_v abandon_v by_o thou_o but_o thou_o have_v not_o deal_v with_o i_o according_a to_o my_o desert_n bless_a be_v thy_o goodness_n for_o it_o and_o therefore_o i_o now_o desire_v unfeigned_o to_o return_v unto_o thou_o and_o renounce_v all_o interest_n and_o propriety_n in_o myself_o and_o detest_a all_o my_o former_a ungodly_a practice_n i_o desire_v to_o give_v up_o myself_o whole_o and_o entire_o to_o thou_o i_o will_v be_v thou_o and_o only_o thou_o in_o all_o love_n and_o service_n in_o perfect_a submission_n and_o obedience_n for_o ever_o but_o i_o know_v i_o be_o nothing_o and_o can_v do_v nothing_o of_o myself_o and_o if_o ever_o i_o be_o thou_o as_o i_o desire_v to_o be_v i_o must_v be_v indebt_v whole_o to_o thy_o goodness_n for_o it_o o_o my_o god_n my_o saviour_n and_o my_o sanctifier_n turn_v not_o away_o thy_o face_n from_o a_o poor_a soul_n that_o seek_v thou_o and_o place_n all_o his_o confidence_n and_o comfort_n in_o thou_o but_o as_o thou_o have_v kindle_v these_o good_a desire_n in_o my_o heart_n so_o favour_v they_o with_o thy_o blessing_n and_o confirm_v increase_n and_o
