god_n some_o be_v more_o infect_v with_o the_o this_o sin_n than_o other_o but_o all_o that_o be_v not_o infect_v with_o prodigality_n have_v a_o disobedient_a humour_n they_o be_v undiscreet_a because_o they_o can_v spend_v when_o they_o shall_v and_o spare_v with_o discretion_n when_o the_o time_n be_v they_o be_v unthankful_a because_o they_o do_v not_o hearty_o thank_v god_n for_o his_o blessing_n but_o wish_v they_o be_v more_o neither_o will_v they_o be_v thankful_a to_o the_o king_n nor_o a_o worthy_a noble_a prince_n or_o peer_n for_o if_o they_o spend_v a_o little_a prodigal_o in_o their_o service_n they_o will_v think_v they_o be_v indebt_v to_o they_o though_o all_o of_o it_o be_v by_o the_o prince_n liberal_o bestow_v on_o they_o but_o indeed_o such_o be_v not_o to_o be_v about_o prince_n or_o peer_n no_o more_o than_o the_o covetous_a some_o wise_a and_o learned_a man_n have_v dispute_v whether_o the_o covetous_a or_o the_o prodigal_a be_v the_o worst_a member_n in_o the_o commonwealth_n but_o i_o pray_v god_n you_o nor_o you_o be_v none_o of_o both_o but_o here_o what_o the_o holy_a ghost_n say_v the_o covetous_a be_v the_o man_n who_o god_n abhor_v the_o prodigal_a be_v worse_a than_o a_o infidel_n and_o thus_o i_o leave_v they_o and_o pray_v to_o god_n for_o christ_n sake_n they_o and_o we_o may_v leave_v both_o those_o and_o all_o other_o sin_n and_o take_v hold_v of_o christ_n by_o faith_n and_o live_v through_o he_o with_o god_n for_o ever_o and_o ever_o chap._n 42._o difference_n between_o a_o act_n &_o habit_n of_o sin_v now_o you_o must_v know_v this_o that_o the_o dear_a child_n of_o god_n for_o want_v of_o discretion_n do_v sometime_o a_o act_n w_z ch_z may_v be_v call_v covetous_a &_o yet_o not_o upon_o a_o covetous_a humour_n and_o a_o act_n that_o may_v be_v call_v prodigal_a and_o yet_o not_o upon_o a_o prodigal_a humour_n but_o for_o want_v of_o discretion_n at_o that_o time_n for_o there_o be_v none_o so_o discreet_a at_o all_o time_n that_o be_v not_o somewhat_o infect_v with_o either_o of_o these_o sin_n for_o we_o be_v infect_v with_o all_o sin_n and_o therefore_o god_n in_o great_a mercy_n to_o man_n make_v the_o sabbath_n or_o lord_n day_n so_o that_o if_o a_o man_n do_v in_o six_o day_n overslip_v himself_o as_o indeed_o we_o all_o do_v and_o do_v not_o reconcile_v himself_o to_o god_n every_o night_n as_o we_o ought_v to_o do_v yet_o on_o the_o sabbath_n day_n the_o lord_n call_v he_o to_o he_o and_o show_v he_o his_o fault_n and_o wish_v he_o to_o be_v reconcile_v unto_o he_o through_o christ_n and_o breathe_v into_o his_o face_n the_o breath_n of_o life_n again_o and_o renew_v in_o he_o the_o image_n of_o god_n again_o that_o be_v decay_v by_o his_o sin_n and_o so_o he_o go_v home_o a_o renew_a man_n and_o therefore_o i_o say_v &_o say_v true_o that_o all_o the_o writer_n in_o the_o world_n can_v express_v what_o hurt_v that_o man_n woman_n or_o child_n do_v himself_o that_o do_v not_o attend_v on_o the_o lord_n on_o the_o sabbath_n day_n neither_o can_v any_o man_n or_o woman_n do_v their_o servant_n more_o hurt_v they_o to_o keep_v they_o from_o the_o lord_n
