i_o handle_v the_o doctrine_n of_o repentance_n faith_n and_o a_o new_a nature_n and_o reform_a life_n be_v indeed_o the_o main_a thing_n wherein_o the_o power_n and_o life_n of_o godliness_n

and_o so_o offend_v in_o the_o manner_n of_o do_v they_o i_o give_v some_o direction_n for_o the_o right_a performance_n of_o they_o 3._o i_o show_v how_o we_o shall_v diligent_o read_v the_o

that_o so_o we_o may_v order_v our_o service_n of_o prayer_n and_o praise_n according_o 7._o how_o we_o shall_v practice_v the_o great_a duty_n of_o daily_a watchfulness_n continual_o watch_v 1._o over_o our_o thought_n that_o we_o lodge_v not_o sinful_a thought_n in_o our_o mind_n 2._o over_o our_o affection_n that_o we_o allow_v not_o any_o sinful_a motion_n and_o stir_n in_o our_o heart_n but_o labour_v speedy_o to_o suppress_v they_o 3._o over_o our_o word_n that_o we_o offend_v not_o as_o we_o be_v exceed_o apt_a with_o our_o tongue_n 4._o over_o our_o action_n that_o they_o may_v be_v such_o as_o proceed_v from_o a_o right_a principle_n be_v conform_v to_o a_o right_a rule_n and_o be_v direct_v to_o a_o right_a end_n these_o be_v the_o thing_n we_o must_v watch_v over_o next_o i_o set_v down_o what_o be_v the_o thing_n we_o must_v watch_v against_o in_o the_o general_a all_o sin_n whatever_o but_o in_o particular_a 1._o those_o sin_n we_o be_v most_o incline_v unto_o by_o our_o own_o temper_n and_o natural_a constitution_n 2._o the_o sin_n we_o be_v most_o expose_v to_o by_o reason_n of_o our_o call_n condition_n state_n and_o course_n of_o life_n 3._o the_o sin_n of_o the_o time_n and_o place_n where_o we_o live_v 4._o against_o all_o occasion_n and_o temptation_n that_o we_o foresee_v be_v like_a to_o endanger_v our_o soul_n 5._o against_o dishonour_v god_n by_o the_o immoderate_a and_o undue_a use_n of_o lawful_a thing_n 6._o against_o error_n where_o the_o danger_n of_o it_o be_v show_v and_o some_o preservative_n be_v give_v against_o it_o in_o the_o next_o place_n be_v show_v how_o we_o shall_v watch_v for_o opportunity_n of_o do_v and_o receive_v good_a and_o some_o motive_n to_o watchfulness_n be_v propound_v and_o the_o chapter_n shut_v up_o with_o these_o two_o direction_n 1._o that_o we_o shall_v beside_o our_o solemn_a prayer_n send_v up_o frequent_a mental_a ejaculatory_a prayer_n unto_o the_o lord_n for_o his_o grace_n help_v and_o assistance_n 2._o that_o every_o night_n we_o shall_v retire_v and_o reflect_v upon_o all_o our_o action_n and_o whole_a behaviour_n in_o the_o day_n past_a and_o so_o set_v all_o at_o right_n between_o god_n and_o our_o soul_n before_o we_o go_v to_o sleep_v and_o because_o whoever_o desire_v to_o grow_v in_o knowledge_n and_o grace_n must_v conscientious_o make_v use_n of_o and_o

shall_v observe_v it_o and_o how_o for_o my_o part_n i_o never_o see_v true_a religion_n and_o the_o power_n of_o godliness_n thrive_v in_o any_o person_n family_n or_o parish_n where_o the_o
