take_v the_o possession_n of_o all_o the_o part_n about_o we_o &_o of_o all_o the_o power_n and_o faculty_n of_o every_o part_n but_o also_o it_o have_v bring_v forth_o infinite_a fruit_n in_o we_o

drown_v it_o now_o then_o belove_v you_o see_v the_o end_n of_o your_o redemption_n and_o calling_n it_o be_v not_o only_o to_o do_v good_a work_n but_o to_o be_v zealous_a of_o good_a work_n you_o

of_o the_o precept_n hitherto_o i_o have_v speak_v of_o the_o precept_n and_o of_o the_o necessary_a circumstance_n belong_v unto_o it_o and_o now_o i_o be_o come_v to_o speak_v of_o the_o reason_n of_o it_o that_o so_o i_o may_v stir_v up_o the_o life_n of_o the_o precept_n in_o his_o work_n in_o you_o and_o when_o he_o be_v old_a he_o shall_v not_o depart_v from_o it_o that_o be_v if_o thou_o

with_o a_o cloud_n of_o exhortation_n i_o have_v think_v good_a here_o not_o only_o to_o press_v forth_o the_o principal_a scope_n of_o this_o text_n but_o also_o to_o suck_v out_o of_o the_o bowel_n thereof_o the_o more_o hide_a and_o abstruse_a collection_n and_o to_o gather_v the_o like_a argument_n out_o of_o other_o scripture_n because_o the_o whole_a scripture_n be_v one_o and_o dare_v

be_v draw_v from_o the_o necessity_n of_o the_o precept_n because_o every_o child_n natural_o be_v conceive_v and_o bear_v out_o of_o the_o way_n as_o the_o prophet_n david_n teach_v we_o 51.5_o psal._n 51.5_o behold_v i_o be_v bear_v in_o iniquity_n and_o in_o sin_n have_v my_o mother_n conceive_v i_o and_o the_o apostle_n saint_n paul_n say_v ephes._n 2._o 2.3_o that_o we_o be_v by_o

and_o the_o apostle_n say_v 1._o cor._n 2._o that_o the_o natural_a man_n can_v perceive_v the_o thing_n which_o be_v of_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n 2.14_o and_o again_o rom._n 8._o he_o tell_v we_o that_o the_o wisdom_n of_o the_o flesh_n be_v enmity_n against_o god_n 7.8_o for_o it_o be_v not_o subject_a to_o the_o law_n of_o god_n neither_o indeed_o can_v be_v wherefore_o now_o you_o see_v plain_o how_o every_o mother_n child_n be_v bear_v into_o the_o world_n blind_a in_o his_o understanding_n froward_a in_o his_o will_n and_o affection_n corrupt_a in_o all_o the_o motion_n of_o his_o

have_v give_v your_o child_n the_o worse_o so_o give_v they_o the_o better_a also_o as_o you_o have_v bring_v they_o forth_o the_o child_n of_o wrath_n and_o death_n so_o now_o teach_v they_o how_o
