ourselves_o in_o these_o four_o thing_n shall_v be_v so_o necessary_a upon_o the_o day_n of_o our_o fast_n i_o must_v give_v you_o certain_a caution_n to_o prevent_v the_o mistake_n of_o this_o doctrine_n first_o 1._o that_o this_o outward_a abstinence_n be_v not_o the_o chief_a part_n of_o a_o true_a fast_o not_o the_o chief_a help_n to_o our_o prayer_n the_o inward_a humiliation_n of_o the_o soul_n be_v far_o more_o acceptable_a to_o god_n and_o have_v more_o force_n to_o make_v our_o prayer_n pierce_v the_o heaven_n than_o all_o this_o bodily_a exercise_n profit_v little_a say_v the_o apostle_n 1_o tim._n 4._o 8._o and_o such_o be_v all_o these_o four_o part_n of_o abstinence_n that_o you_o have_v hear_v of_o but_o godliness_n whereof_o the_o inward_a afflict_v of_o the_o soul_n and_o mortify_v of_o our_o lust_n be_v a_o chief_a part_n be_v profitable_a unto_o all_o thing_n rend_a your_o heart_n and_o not_o your_o garment_n say_v the_o prophet_n joel_n 2._o 13._o nay_o the_o restrain_v of_o ourselves_o in_o these_o four_o thing_n be_v in_o itself_o no_o service_n of_o god_n nor_o acceptable_a at_o all_o unto_o he_o further_o than_o as_o it_o be_v a_o help_n to_o the_o inward_a humiliation_n of_o the_o heart_n and_o even_o animate_v by_o it_o that_o that_o be_v say_v of_o the_o one_o of_o these_o may_v be_v fit_o say_v of_o all_o mat._n 15._o 11._o that_o which_o go_v into_o the_o mouth_n defile_v not_o a_o man_n and_o rom._n 14._o 17._o the_o kingdom_n of_o god_n consist_v not_o in_o meat_n or_o drink_n second_o 2._o that_o these_o outward_a sign_n and_o help_n to_o humiliation_n must_v be_v increase_v according_a to_o the_o increase_n and_o urgency_n of_o the_o cause_n as_o there_o be_v degree_n in_o god_n judgement_n on_o a_o land_n or_o

and_o such_o as_o do_v more_o deep_o affect_v the_o heart_n so_o ought_v these_o outward_a sign_n and_o help_v of_o our_o humiliation_n be_v proportionable_a thereunto_o whereas_o ordinary_o the_o

so_o extreme_a general_a present_o imminent_a as_o they_o may_v well_o hold_v out_o their_o fast_n so_o long_o with_o feeling_n and_o affection_n which_o be_v the_o main_a thing_n to_o be_v look_v unto_o in_o this_o case_n and_o without_o hope_n and_o likelihood_n of_o that_o the_o enjoin_v of_o the_o other_o be_v but_o gross_a hypocrisy_n as_o be_v plain_a by_o that_o speech_n of_o our_o

abridge_v ourselves_o in_o our_o apparel_n yet_o may_v we_o have_v respect_n to_o comeliness_n in_o our_o apparel_n even_o on_o that_o day_n we_o may_v not_o disguise_v our_o body_n or_o make_v they_o ridiculous_a as_o our_o saviour_n note_v it_o to_o have_v be_v the_o fashion_n of_o hypocrite_n to_o do_v they_o disfigure_v their_o face_n say_v he_o mat._n 6._o 16._o that_o they_o may_v appear_v
