of_o they_o and_o therefore_o if_o any_o know_v how_o to_o put_v a_o due_a esteem_n upon_o this_o great_a mercy_n the_o undisturbed_a use_n of_o their_o sense_n and_o reason_n these_o man_n do_v those_o that_o be_v under_o the_o care_n and_o provision_n of_o other_o hospital_n be_v not_o half_a so_o miserable_a as_o they_o late_o be_v christ-church_n be_v a_o receptacle_n of_o poor_a man_n child_n but_o poverty_n though_o a_o great_a misery_n be_v not_o whole_o without_o relief_n and_o remedy_n if_o man_n have_v the_o use_n of_o their_o sense_n and_o reason_n whereby_o to_o learn_v and_o practice_v honest_a and_o ingenuous_a art_n for_o their_o relief_n and_o maintenance_n in_o st._n bartholomew_n and_o st._n thomas_n there_o be_v lame_a and_o decrepit_a and_o infirm_a people_n exercise_v with_o diverse_a pain_n but_o see_v their_o distemper_n do_v not_o touch_v their_o brain_n they_o can_v enjoy_v the_o sweet_a and_o delightful_a converse_n of_o friend_n and_o acquaintance_n and_o communicate_v pleasant_a and_o useful_a discourse_n with_o they_o and_o both_o the_o former_a and_o the_o latter_a of_o these_o have_v opportunity_n for_o the_o work_n out_o their_o salvation_n with_o fear_n and_o tremble_a but_o the_o patient_n of_o bethleem_n want_v all_o this_o if_o they_o be_v poor_a they_o want_v the_o use_n of_o reason_n to_o attend_v upon_o a_o beneficial_a call_n and_o if_o surround_v with_o a_o multitude_n of_o friend_n they_o be_v not_o better_v by_o their_o converse_n as_o not_o understand_v what_o they_o say_v or_o what_o they_o do_v but_o if_o they_o have_v be_v addict_v to_o any_o course_n of_o mortal_a sin_n they_o be_v as_o it_o be_v lock_v up_o under_o a_o state_n of_o impenitence_n have_v not_o sense_n to_o apprehend_v the_o error_n of_o their_o former_a way_n nor_o reason_n to_o direct_v they_o how_o to_o return_v to_o the_o wisdom_n of_o the_o just_a but_o by_o be_v restore_v to_o their_o sense_n they_o be_v restore_v to_o all_o these_o advantage_n they_o be_v better_o enable_v to_o maintain_v their_o charge_n better_o enable_v to_o enjoy_v their_o friend_n better_o enable_v to_o serve_v their_o god_n and_o as_o it_o be_v a_o complicate_v mercy_n so_o it_o deserve_v a_o complicate_v thankfulness_n and_o they_o that_o be_v restore_v to_o their_o sense_n aught_o to_o return_v a_o several_a acknowledgement_n to_o the_o divine_a goodness_n as_o for_o the_o fundamental_a mercy_n itself_o so_o for_o all_o those_o that_o be_v contain_v in_o it_o man_n be_v instrument_n in_o the_o hand_n of_o god_n and_o as_o such_o there_o be_v due_a to_o they_o a_o gratitude_n proportionable_a to_o their_o care_n over_o they_o but_o god_n be_v the_o principal_a agent_n and_o therefore_o he_o may_v claim_v their_o high_a praise_n and_o adoration_n second_o my_o second_o exhortation_n to_o those_o that_o have_v a_o happy_a cure_n in_o this_o hospital_n be_v to_o take_v care_n of_o those_o sinful_a passion_n that_o heretofore_o have_v either_o cause_v or_o hasten_v their_o former_a distraction_n upon_o they_o for_o seldom_o it_o be_v that_o a_o man_n of_o a_o sedate_n temper_n or_o a_o quiet_a mind_n or_o of_o moderate_a propension_n or_o that_o have_v bound_v his_o desire_n within_o the_o limit_n of_o reason_n and_o religion_n that_o arrive_v at_o these_o frenzy_n which_o have_v their_o cure_n in_o this_o house_n but_o usual_o some_o inordinate_a passion_n transport_v we_o first_o beyond_o our_o duty_n and_o then_o beyond_o our_o wit_n some_o be_v vain_a glorious_a and_o because_o they_o meet_v with_o scorn_n where_o they_o look_v for_o respect_n it_o be_v a_o disturbance_n first_o to_o their_o thought_n then_o to_o the_o very_a constitution_n of_o their_o brain_n and_o then_o pervert_v their_o sense_n some_o guide_v their_o love_n more_o by_o fancy_n then_o by_o reason_n not_o regard_v the_o consent_n of_o parent_n nor_o approbation_n of_o friend_n nor_o any_o of_o those_o circumstance_n which_o a_o wise_a man_n ought_v to_o consider_v and_o that_o passion_n which_o be_v but_o the_o issue_n of_o a_o unreasonable_a lust_n conclude_v at_o last_o in_o a_o more_o unreasonable_a frenzy_n and_o some_o disturb_v their_o mind_n with_o unreasonable_a scruple_n and_o religion_n which_o have_v a_o natural_a tendency_n to_o compose_v man_n spirit_n disturb_v they_o my_o advice_n to_o all_o such_o be_v that_o when_o they_o be_v restore_v to_o their_o sense_n they_o will_v correct_v their_o passion_n by_o reason_n and_o religion_n and_o they_o will_v find_v the_o benefit_n of_o it_o in_o
