no_o other_o consideration_n to_o convince_v we_o in_o this_o partilar_a yet_o in_o this_o one_o we_o may_v discover_v how_o improper_a sickness_n must_v be_v to_o be_v fix_v upon_o for_o the_o performance_n of_o our_o repentance_n namely_o because_o no_o man_n can_v be_v certain_a what_o operation_n sickness_n may_v effect_v in_o he_o whether_o its_o anguish_n may_v not_o harden_v or_o its_o gentleness_n prevent_v his_o holy_a resolution_n to_o repent_v we_o have_v daily_a instance_n of_o such_o distemper_n which_o deprive_v man_n of_o their_o hope_n and_o wit_n together_o and_o of_o other_o too_o who_o indiscernible_a decay_n too_o often_o lull_v they_o in_o impenitence_n and_o now_o can_v sickness_n be_v a_o proper_a season_n for_o repentance_n which_o contain_v our_o sorrow_n for_o our_o past_a irregularity_n which_o be_v our_o actual_a return_v into_o the_o path_n of_o health_n and_o wisdom_n when_o sickness_n many_o time_n put_v we_o but_o still_o more_o beside_o ourselves_o can_v that_o be_v the_o proper_a time_n to_o qualify_v our_o grief_n for_o sin_n which_o have_v so_o many_o uneasiness_n and_o distraction_n of_o its_o own_o and_o thus_o i_o pass_v to_o the_o second_o time_n in_o which_o many_o purpose_n to_o repent_v and_o that_o be_v the_o time_n of_o old_a age_n where_o i_o shall_v not_o stand_v now_o to_o consider_v the_o improbability_n whether_o one_o in_o five_o hundred_o of_o those_o who_o fix_v upon_o this_o time_n ever_o live_v to_o be_v old_a nor_o yet_o that_o observation_n which_o daily_a experience_n seem_v but_o too_o constant_o to_o instruct_v we_o in_o namely_o that_o a_o vicious_a and_o impenitent_a youth_n too_o frequent_o conclude_v in_o a_o harden_a and_o a_o unrelenting_a old_a age_n but_o i_o shall_v now_o suppose_v that_o by_o the_o good_a providence_n of_o god_n we_o may_v all_o here_o live_v to_o be_v old_a and_o so_o reason_n upon_o this_o supposition_n now_o then_o shall_v old_a age_n be_v proper_a for_o this_o work_n what_o shall_v that_o be_v master_v with_o seeble_a joint_n and_o tremble_a knee_n which_o have_v so_o long_o be_v victorious_a over_o all_o our_o strong_a resolution_n shall_v the_o dregs_o and_o refuse_v of_o life_n be_v the_o proper_a sacrifice_n for_o our_o god_n shall_v we_o then_o be_v best_a qualify_v to_o set_v forth_o the_o greatness_n of_o his_o mercy_n when_o all_o those_o excellent_a endowment_n which_o god_n have_v bless_v we_o with_o on_o purpose_n that_o we_o may_v glorify_v his_o heavenly_a majesty_n have_v be_v consume_v on_o sin_n and_o be_v wear_v out_o in_o the_o work_v of_o unrighteousness_n shall_v that_o be_v our_o fit_a time_n for_o the_o fear_n of_o god_n which_o be_v the_o begin_n of_o wisdom_n when_o we_o be_v reduce_v to_o the_o weakness_n of_o childhood_n can_v that_o be_v the_o fit_a season_n for_o we_o to_o take_v the_o review_n of_o our_o life_n past_a when_o we_o have_v lose_v our_o memory_n that_o a_o time_n to_o look_v back_o when_o we_o shall_v scarce_o be_v able_a to_o see_v before_o we_o in_o a_o word_n shall_v that_o be_v a_o fit_a time_n for_o a_o free_a voluntary_a and_o conscientious_a forsake_v of_o sin_n wherein_o true_a repentance_n do_v consist_v when_o sin_n itself_o will_v forsake_v we_o it_o be_v wonderful_a to_o observe_v how_o man_n act_v contrary_a to_o those_o receive_a principle_n of_o wisdom_n which_o direct_v they_o in_o other_o matter_n in_o this_o great_a business_n of_o their_o salvation_n if_o we_o examine_v they_o as_o to_o their_o concern_v relate_v to_o this_o world_n this_o excuse_v they_o make_v for_o their_o present_a care_n crave_n and_o immoderate_a pursuit_n after_o the_o thing_n of_o this_o world_n be_v this_o to_o keep_v and_o refresh_v they_o when_o they_o shall_v be_v unfit_a for_o care_n to_o make_v old_a age_n happy_a and_o easy_a how_o insatiable_a be_v they_o in_o secure_v the_o great_a store_n against_o that_o time_n when_o the_o least_o may_v satisfy_v but_o as_o for_o those_o heavenly_a treasure_n which_o will_v be_v the_o more_o needful_a the_o nigh_o we_o approach_v the_o grave_a they_o think_v it_o time_n enough_o to_o be_v seek_v these_o when_o they_o shall_v actual_o enjoy_v they_o they_o think_v there_o be_v no_o necessity_n to_o be_v careful_a for_o these_o which_o be_v most_o necessary_a till_o by_o the_o inveterate_a habit_n of_o their_o vice_n they_o be_v indeed_o render_v unfit_a for_o all_o the_o watchful_a care_n of_o true_a devotion_n what_o a_o contradiction_n be_v here_o that_o man_n shall_v pretend_v they_o will_v have_v their_o old_a age_n happy_a and_o yet_o load_v it_o with_o all_o the_o pain_n and_o bitter_a labour_n of_o repentance_n can_v old_a age_n thus_o be_v happy_a when_o all_o this_o may_v be_v too_o little_a when_o we_o may_v cry_v and_o not_o be_v hear_v when_o we_o may_v weep_v and_o languish_v and_o repent_v and_o yet_o like_o esau_n find_v none_o to_o comfort_n none_o to_o restore_v the_o blessing_n when_o that_o god_n who_o now_o in_o the_o beauty_n of_o our_o youth_n and_o perfection_n of_o our_o age_n we_o have_v contemn_v shall_v in_o his_o wisdom_n and_o justice_n contemn_v our_o craziness_n will_v thou_o be_v happy_a when_o thou_o be_v old_a thou_o must_v then_o needs_o be_v godly_a now_o thou_o be_v young_a that_o which_o often_o disturb_v the_o soul_n of_o david_n be_v the_o sense_n of_o his_o sin_n though_o he_o live_v in_o a_o habitual_a repentance_n yet_o we_o find_v this_o frequent_o wound_v he_o in_o the_o midst_n of_o his_o enjoyment_n let_v i_o therefore_o earnest_o beseech_v you_o that_o be_v young_a or_o in_o the_o strength_n of_o your_o year_n to_o remember_v your_o creator_n now_o in_o these_o day_n of_o youth_n and_o strength_n and_o that_o as_o for_o many_o other_o so_o especial_o upon_o these_o two_o consideration_n first_o because_o if_o you_o will_v not_o serve_v god_n now_o whilst_o you_o be_v fit_a for_o the_o service_n of_o the_o world_n you_o can_v expect_v no_o blessing_n from_o god_n then_o when_o you_o shall_v be_v pass_v transgressing_n second_o because_o if_o you_o will_v not_o serve_v god_n now_o you_o will_v not_o be_v able_a to_o serve_v he_o hereafter_o there_o be_v no_o service_n at_o all_o in_o that_o it_o will_v be_v the_o effect_n of_o impotency_n and_o necessity_n it_o be_v no_o service_n at_o all_o to_o god_n that_o thou_o will_v abstain_v from_o sin_v when_o the_o vicious_a humour_n have_v be_v fulfil_v before_o and_o thy_o natural_a decay_n render_v thou_o unfit_a for_o sin_v consider_v it_o be_v now_o in_o these_o day_n of_o youth_n and_o strength_n that_o temptation_n flow_v about_o thou_o it_o be_v now_o that_o ambition_n prick_v and_o the_o world_n beset_v thou_o with_o enchantment_n it_o be_v now_o that_o the_o unruliness_n of_o thy_o blood_n and_o the_o evil_a propensity_n of_o thy_o flesh_n prompt_v thou_o to_o rebellion_n against_o thy_o god_n and_o therefore_o it_o must_v be_v now_o that_o be_v the_o proper_a season_n for_o all_o the_o holy_a action_n of_o true_a devotion_n if_o thou_o cast_v off_o the_o care_n of_o thy_o soul_n now_o think_v not_o that_o god_n will_v take_v it_o up_o think_v not_o that_o he_o will_v accept_v thy_o refuse_n much_o less_o in_o wisdom_n or_o religion_n can_v thou_o imagine_v that_o notwithstanding_o thy_o present_a contempt_n of_o so_o precious_a a_o treasure_n he_o will_v at_o last_o exalt_v and_o glorify_v thou_o old_a age_n shall_v god_n bless_v we_o with_o it_o will_v be_v the_o beginning_n of_o our_o harvest_n the_o time_n when_o we_o shall_v in_o some_o measure_n reap_v the_o bless_a fruit_n of_o a_o present_a piety_n and_o repentance_n and_o therefore_o very_o improper_a to_o be_v appoint_v by_o we_o for_o the_o time_n of_o seed_n i._n e._n for_o the_o time_n of_o begin_n of_o our_o repent_v and_o thus_o i_o be_o bring_v to_o speak_v to_o the_o three_o time_n resolve_v on_o by_o too_o many_o man_n for_o the_o work_n of_o their_o repentance_n which_o though_o it_o be_v a_o time_n which_o all_o must_v come_v to_o yet_o certain_o a_o late_a hour_n they_o can_v think_v on_o for_o it_o be_v the_o hour_n of_o death_n now_o be_v not_o this_o a_o monstrous_a resolution_n i_o will_v begin_v then_o to_o live_v righteous_o when_o i_o may_v conclude_v with_o myself_o i_o shall_v live_v no_o long_o i_o will_v there_o fix_v the_o assurance_n of_o my_o eternal_a happiness_n where_o i_o be_o teach_v will_v end_v all_o the_o opportunity_n of_o make_v sure_a my_o future_a happiness_n will_v thou_o say_v thou_o repent_v at_o death_n will_v thou_o indeed_o trust_v all_o to_o one_o moment_n then_o give_v i_o leave_v to_o represent_v unto_o thou_o how_o desperate_o the_o state_n of_o thy_o salvation_n stand_v thou_o will_v repent_v alas_o it_o will_v not_o be_v in_o thy_o power_n to_o repent_v at_o pleasure_n
