then_o desire_v they_o to_o answer_v this_o you_o must_v know_v that_o there_o be_v a_o twofold_a will_n and_o desire_v first_o a_o remiss_a will_n which_o be_v rather_o a_o inclination_n than_o a_o

under_o god_n hand_n and_o refer_v and_o submit_v our_o will_n to_o his_o will_n second_o there_o be_v a_o content_a whereby_o have_v sufficient_a for_o food_n and_o raiment_n we_o suffer_v not_o our_o will_n actual_o to_o desire_v more_o nor_o to_o go_v beyond_o the_o limit_n which_o god_n have_v set_v we_o god_n have_v promise_v outward_a blessing_n as_o a_o reward_n of_o his_o service_n and_o propound_v they_o to_o we_o as_o so_o many_o argument_n and_o motive_n to_o stir_v we_o up_o to_o fear_v he_o and_o therefore_o we_o may_v desire_v they_o as_o his_o blessing_n with_o such_o a_o

ourselves_o whole_o to_o god_n will_n christ_n be_v to_o die_v have_v a_o will_n to_o live_v yet_o not_o a_o full_a and_o resolute_a will_n but_o a_o will_v subordinate_a to_o god_n will._n father_n

may_v desire_v food_n and_o raiment_n he_o may_v desire_v that_o which_o be_v necessary_a for_o nature_n without_o which_o he_o can_v live_v &_o subsist_v as_o a_o man_n may_v desire_v a_o ship_n to_o pass_v over_o the_o sea_n from_o one_o country_n to_o another_o because_o he_o can_v pass_v over_o without_o it_o so_o a_o man_n may_v desire_v food_n and_o raiment_n in_o the_o sea_n of_o this_o life_n because_o without_o it_o he_o can_v finish_v his_o course_n which_o god_n have_v prescribe_v unto_o he_o now_o there_o be_v a_o threefold_a necessity_n first_o there_o be_v a_o necessity_n of_o expedience_n as_o if_o a_o man_n have_v a_o a_o journey_n to_o go_v '_o its_o true_a he_o may_v go_v it_o on_o foot_n yet_o he_o may_v desire_v a_o horse_n ride_v on_o because_o it_o will_v be_v more_o expedient_a for_o he_o so_o you_o may_v desire_v with_o a_o remiss_a desire_n so_o much_o as_o be_v expedient_a for_o your_o vocation_n and_o calling_n so_o much_o as_o it_o require_v second_o there_o be_v a_o necessity_n in_o respect_n of_o your_o condition_n and_o place_n as_o man_n in_o high_a rank_n and_o calling_n need_v more_o than_o man_n of_o a_o inferior_a degree_n to_o maintain_v their_o place_n and_o dignity_n so_o may_v they_o desire_v to_o have_v more_o than_o they_o so_o as_o they_o desire_v no_o more_o than_o will_v be_v sufficient_a to_o maintain_v they_o in_o that_o rank_n and_o degree_n wherein_o they_o be_v place_v three_o there_o be_v a_o necessity_n of_o refreshment_n and_o you_o may_v desire_v as_o much_o as_o be_v needful_a for_o your_o necessary_a refreshment_n as_o much_o as_o hospitality_n require_v so_o that_o you_o do_v not_o go_v beyond_o it_o and_o in_o these_o three_o respect_n you_o may_v desire_v god_n to_o give_v you_o as_o much_o as_o shall_v be_v expedient_a for_o you_o because_o it_o be_v no_o more_o than_o nature_n require_v now_o beside_o this_o desire_n of_o thing_n necessary_a there_o be_v a_o desire_n of_o superfluity_n and_o excess_n this_o desire_n proceed_v not_o from_o nature_n but_o from_o lust_n because_o we_o desire_v such_o a_o degree_n of_o wealth_n either_o to_o raise_v our_o estate_n or_o that_o we_o may_v bestow_v it_o on_o our_o lust_n and_o pleasure_n that_o like_o the_o rich_a glutton_n luke_n 16._o we_o may_v be_v well_o clad_v and_o fare_v delicious_o every_o day_n many_o man_n life_n be_v nothing_o else_o but_o play_v and_o eat_v eat_v and_o play_v and_o be_v lead_v always_o in_o this_o circuit_n to_o desire_v wealth_n to_o this_o or_o any_o other_o superfluous_a end_n be_v very_o sinful_a and_o it_o must_v needs_o be_v so_o for_o many_o reason_n first_o 1._o because_o man_n life_n stand_v not_o in_o abundance_n &_o excess_n therefore_o luke_n 12.13_o 14_o 15._o verse_n when_o as_o a_o certain_a man_n speak_v to_o christ_n to_o speak_v to_o his_o brother_n to_o divide_v the_o inheritance_n with_o he_o he_o say_v unto_o he_o man_n who_o make_v i_o a_o judge_n or_o devider_n ●ver_o you_o and_o then_o bid_v the_o multitude_n to_o beware_v of_o covetousness_n because_o that_o a_o man_n life_n consist_v not_o in_o the_o abundance_n of_o the_o thing_n that_o he_o possess_v that_o be_v though_o you_o have_v never_o so_o much_o wealth_n yet_o you_o shall_v not_o live_v the_o long_o for_o it_o your_o life_n consist_v not_o in_o it_o no_o more_o do_v your_o comfort_n for_o they_o will_v but_o please_v the_o sight_n of_o your_o eye_n they_o will_v not_o make_v you_o more_o happy_a than_o you_o be_v seek_v not_o therefore_o superfluity_n for_o

holiness_n blaze_n in_o their_o eye_n they_o say_v it_o be_v but_o guild_v over_o it_o be_v but_o hypocrisy_n these_o reason_n may_v prepare_v and_o confirm_v but_o they_o can_v persuade_v we_o must_v therefore_o believe_v that_o there_o be_v such_o a_o life_n john_n 3_o christ_n treat_v of_o this_o that_o there_o be_v such_o a_o life_n he_o tell_v nicodemus_n that_o he_o must_v live_v it_o and_o be_v bear_v again_o he_o wonder_v at_o it_o how_o it_o can_v be_v christ_n therefore_o conclude_v in_o the_o 12._o verse_n if_o i_o have_v tell_v you_o earthly_a thing_n and_o you_o believe_v not_o how_o shall_v you_o believe_v if_o i_o tell_v you_o of_o heavenly_a thing_n that_o be_v it_o must_v be_v believe_v that_o there_o be_v such_o a_o life_n sense_n believe_v it_o not_o yet_o it_o be_v easy_a to_o believe_v it_o because_o it_o be_v wrought_v on_o earth_n other_o thing_n be_v hard_a than_o this_o to_o believe_v because_o they_o be_v wrought_v in_o heaven_n though_o this_o be_v wrought_v on_o earth_n yet_o it_o be_v hard_o to_o believe_v and_o must_v be_v believe_v and_o thus_o much_o for_o the_o first_o part_n of_o the_o doctrine_n that_o there_o be_v such_o a_o life_n for_o the_o second_o what_o this_o life_n be_v you_o may_v know_v one_o contrary_a by_o another_o be_v we_o have_v show_v already_o what_o death_n that_o be_v contrary_a to_o it_o be_v by_o which_o you_o may_v partly_o perceive_v what_o this_o life_n be_v yet_o we_o will_v give_v you_o some_o other_o sign_n how_o to_o know_v it_o this_o life_n be_v a_o real_a life_n as_o real_a as_o the_o

as_o will_v appear_v by_o compare_v it_o with_o the_o common_a life_n first_o in_o this_o common_a life_n of_o nature_n there_o must_v be_v temper_n of_o body_n disposition_n of_o instrument_n so_o in_o this_o life_n of_o grace_n there_o be_v a_o frame_n of_o heart_n a_o composition_n of_o soul_n on_o which_o it_o do_v depend_v there_o be_v humour_n and_o ingredient_n of_o this_o life_n and_o
