&_o prayer_n the_o sacrament_n of_o the_o supper_n &_o the_o company_n of_o god_n child_n contrary_a to_o hope_v under_o hope_n yea_o without_o any_o present_a feel_n all_o this_o be_v a_o certain_a

have_v no_o desire_n at_o all_o unto_o they_o yea_o sometime_o to_o speak_v very_o evil_a of_o they_o but_o all_o this_o be_v but_o temptation_n and_o therefore_o god_n will_v be_v merciful_a unto_o

compare_v with_o this_o place_n john_n 17._o 20._o &_o you_o shall_v see_v that_o the_o heavenlye_a verity_n affirm_v that_o he_o pray_v not_o only_o for_o the_o apostle_n but_o for_o all_o those_o that_o shall_v believe_v through_o their_o word_n yea_o far_a our_o lord_n jesu_n christ_n be_v yesterdaye_v be_v to_o day_n &_o be_v for_o ever_o and_o as_o the_o forefather_n be_v baptize_v unto_o

that_o this_o vile_a &_o crooked_a hardness_n of_o your_o hart_n can_v be_v remit_v and_o renew_v and_o even_o this_o be_v the_o second_o point_n which_o in_o the_o former_a part_n of_o my_o letter_n i_o give_v you_o to_o understand_v be_v the_o cause_n of_o your_o excessive_a distress_n i_o beseech_v you_o and_o i_o charge_v you_o in_o the_o name_n of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n that_o you_o will_v not_o willing_o lie_v nor_o offer_v injury_n to_o god_n spirit_n nor_o to_o yourself_o who_o have_v receive_v it_o tell_v i_o what_o be_v the_o reason_n why_o you_o think_v you_o have_v no_o faith_n very_o because_o you_o have_v no_o feel_n nor_o any_o other_o fruit_n thereof_o as_o you_o think_v well_o first_o then_o agree_v with_o i_o herein_o as_o you_o must_v if_o you_o will_v not_o disagree_v with_o the_o truth_n that_o feeling_n be_v but_o a_o effect_n and_o fruit_n of_o faith_n &_o therefore_o there_o may_v be_v faith_n without_o feeling_n aswell_o as_o the_o cause_n may_v be_v without_o the_o effect_n and_o the_o tree_n without_o any_o appearance_n of_o fruit_n yea_o of_o sap_n for_o a_o season_n and_o as_o a_o man_n sore_o wound_v and_o disease_v may_v for_o a_o season_n be_v deprive_v almost_o of_o all_o operation_n of_o the_o natural_a life_n to_o the_o outward_a show_n of_o his_o own_o indnment_n and_o feeling_n so_o may_v a_o spiritual_a man_n be_v fore_o wound_v by_o satan_n and_o disease_v by_o the_o present_a sight_n and_o feel_n of_o his_o sinful_a corruption_n speal_o in_o temptation_n that_o he_o may_v think_v yea_o appear_v to_o other_o that_o the_o life_n of_o the_o spirit_n be_v not_o in_o he_o thus_o peter_n faith_n do_v not_o whole_o fail_v as_o you_o have_v hear_v or_o else_o the_o prayer_n of_o our_o saviour_n prevail_v not_o thus_o when_o david_n in_o the_o one_o and_o fifty_o psal._n the_o twelu_v verse_n declare_v that_o his_o heart_n be_v unclean_a and_o his_o spirit_n crooked_a or_o unstable_a and_o in_o the_o fourteen_o verse_n that_o he_o have_v lose_v the_o joy_n of_o his_o salvation_n and_o the_o spirit_n of_o liberty_n or_o adoption_n yet_o in_o the_o thirteen_o verse_n he_o pray_v that_o god_n will_v not_o take_v his_o holy_a spirit_n from_o he_o therefore_o hereby_o it_o appear_v he_o be_v not_o deprive_v of_o the_o spirit_n of_o sanctification_n here_o seem_v to_o be_v repugnaunce_n but_o there_o be_v not_o any_o he_o be_v deprive_v indeed_o for_o a_o time_n of_o the_o grace_n of_o the_o sanctifi_a spirit_n but_o not_o of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n wherewithal_o he_o be_v sanctify_v which_o grace_n as_o god_n restore_v unto_o he_o so_o i_o be_o persuade_v he_o will_v do_v unto_o you_o yea_o and_o i_o doubt_v whether_o you_o be_v deprive_v of_o they_o but_o only_o that_o partly_o melancholy_a partly_o satan_n work_v therewith_o make_v you_o do_v injury_n to_o yourself_o and_o to_o the_o grace_n of_o the_o spirit_n in_o you_o which_o i_o beseech_v you_o to_o take_v heed_n of_o but_o the_o messenger_n can_v stay_v and_o therefore_o i_o can_v write_v as_o i_o will_v either_o of_o this_o or_o of_o the_o remedy_n which_o you_o shall_v use_v which_o hereafter_o i_o will_v as_o god_n shall_v enable_v i_o and_o i_o pray_v you_o let_v i_o understand_v as_o i_o request_v in_o the_o beginning_n of_o your_o estate_n in_o particular_a somewhat_o more_o and_o by_o this_o bearer_n if_o you_o can_v because_o he_o be_v of_o your_o acquaintance_n and_o will_v bring_v it_o to_o i_o faithful_o only_o i_o do_v add_v now_o unto_o you_o that_o i_o have_v write_v of_o hardness_n of_o heart_n at_o large_a that_o you_o must_v diligent_o observe_v the_o word_n create_v which_o david_n use_v in_o the_o one_o and_o fifty_o psalm_n declare_v that_o he_o have_v no_o feel_n of_o his_o heart_n to_o this_o join_v that_o which_o the_o prophet_n esay_n speak_v in_o the_o person_n of_o god_n 57_o 23._o i_o create_v the_o fruit_n of_o the_o lip_n to_o be_v peace_n peace_n to_o he_o that_o be_v far_o off_o as_o to_o he_o that_o be_v never_o therefore_o in_o faith_n you_o may_v as_o well_o pray_v with_o hope_n to_o obtain_v as_o do_v david_n therefore_o say_v with_o he_o often_o and_o with_o god_n people_n esay_n 64._o 12._o o_o lord_n thou_o be_v our_o father_n we_o indeed_o be_v clay_n but_o thou_o be_v our_o maker_n we_o be_v the_o work_n of_o thy_o hand_n
