many_o of_o our_o acquaintance_n and_o friend_n but_o that_o our_o name_n may_v be_v among_o those_o who_o shall_v not_o outlive_v this_o it_o be_v true_a it_o may_v be_v you_o shall_v live_v to_o

yet_o a_o few_o year_n more_o i_o can_v look_v round_o on_o this_o assembly_n but_o i_o must_v conclude_v that_o of_o all_o this_o number_n it_o be_v past_a doubt_n but_o some_o one_o or_o more_o will_v die_v before_o this_o year_n be_v over_o i_o believe_v i_o need_v not_o scruple_n to_o pronounce_v it_o there_o be_v none_o can_v question_v but_o if_o the_o number_n be_v much_o less_o one_o or_o more_o will_v die_v within_o a_o year_n therefore_o the_o voice_n of_o god_n be_v to_o every_o one_o of_o you_o awake_v and_o mind_v your_o work_n turn_v to_o the_o lord_n and_o seek_v after_o

particular_a do_v you_o speak_v this_o sure_o not_o to_o i_o yes_o i_o speak_v it_o to_o you_o to_o every_o of_o you_o whether_o in_o youth_n or_o age_n to_o you_o parent_n and_o to_o you_o that_o be_v child_n to_o you_o master_n and_o to_o you_o servant_n to_o you_o husband_n and_o to_o you_o wife_n to_o you_o before_o i_o and_o to_o you_o on_o either_o hand_n this_o call_v of_o god_n be_v to_o every_o one_o of_o you_o in_o particular_a see_v that_o you_o be_v find_v in_o christ_n for_o you_o may_v not_o be_v find_v alive_a at_o the_o end_n of_o this_o year_n oh_o but_o i_o hope_v the_o

say_v they_o have_v many_o senior_n to_o go_v before_o they_o that_o many_o who_o be_v elder_a than_o they_o they_o see_v do_v yet_o hold_v out_o year_n after_o year_n their_o inward_a thought_n be_v that_o they_o have_v escape_v many_o danger_n and_o be_v recover_v from_o many_o sickness_n and_o though_o they_o be_v but_o weak_a and_o crazy_a and_o have_v many_o infirmity_n and_o pain_n to_o

their_o acquaintance_n as_o weak_a and_o sickly_a as_o they_o have_v continue_v a_o good_a while_n for_o all_o that_o and_o so_o neither_o young_a nor_o old_a will_v admit_v the_o supposition_n as_o to_o their_o own_o case_n nor_o you_o nor_o you_o nor_o any_o body_n will_v believe_v they_o shall_v die_v this_o year_n and_o so_o the_o next_o year_n i_o doubt_v not_o your_o heart_n will_v say_v

long_a life_n which_o with_o so_o much_o confidence_n you_o reckon_v upon_o well_o shall_v i_o say_v then_o go_v and_o enjoy_v this_o world_n and_o live_v as_o you_o listen_v if_o you_o dare_v put_v

by_o voluntary_a vital_a union_n with_o the_o son_n of_o god_n i_o must_v tell_v you_o for_o a_o conclusion_n that_o god_n change_v not_o and_o if_o neither_o the_o voice_n of_o his_o providence_n
