unto_o his_o father_n in_o the_o bitterness_n of_o his_o grief_n be_v full_a of_o torment_n in_o his_o body_n and_o full_a of_o anguish_n in_o his_o soul_n &_o that_o for_o their_o sake_n even_o for_o

the_o death_n of_o their_o worthy_a king_n josiah_n who_o yet_o die_v unwilling_o &_o not_o without_o any_o intent_n to_o benefit_n they_o thereby_o how_o much_o more_o bitter_o shall_v we_o lament_v the_o death_n of_o our_o bless_a redeemer_n who_o be_v a_o far_o great_a and_o excellent_a king_n than_o josiah_n be_v and_o yet_o willing_o and_o free_o lay_v down_o his_o life_n for_o our_o sake_n that_o he_o may_v free_v we_o from_o eternal_a death_n and_o destruction_n both_o of_o our_o body_n and_o soul_n questionless_a if_o we_o have_v any_o spiritual_a life_n and_o sense_n in_o we_o this_o will_v make_v we_o loathe_v our_o sin_n that_o bring_v our_o dear_a saviour_n so_o much_o woe_n and_o misery_n and_o cause_v we_o hearty_o to_o mourn_v for_o the_o same_o even_o as_o a_o man_n will_v

abase_v and_o vilify_v so_o afflict_v and_o torment_v for_o our_o offence_n this_o must_v needs_o work_v upon_o our_o soul_n if_o we_o have_v but_o the_o least_o drop_n of_o goodness_n in_o us._n object_n but_o here_o some_o man_n may_v object_v and_o say_v indeed_o if_o all_o this_o have_v be_v do_v for_o i_o alone_o you_o say_v well_o if_o my_o heart_n be_v not_o altogether_o flinty_a and_o

diminish_v the_o love_n of_o god_n and_o of_o christ_n towards_o you_o and_o therefore_o it_o shall_v no_o whit_n lessen_v your_o good_a affection_n towards_o he_o for_o your_o saviour_n suffer_v as_o much_o for_o your_o iniquity_n as_o if_o he_o have_v suffer_v for_o no_o man_n else_o for_o your_o sin_n alone_o require_v a_o infinite_a satisfaction_n object_n again_o it_o may_v be_v ask_v how_o the_o consideration_n of_o christ_n his_o death_n can_v make_v we_o mourn_v since_o it_o be_v the_o happy_a thing_n that_o ever_o fall_v out_o since_o the_o foundation_n of_o the_o world_n be_v lay_v and_o therefore_o may_v seem_v to_o bring_v with_o it_o great_a matter_n of_o joy_n then_o of_o sorrow_n ans_fw-fr the_o answer_n hereunto_o be_v easy_a because_o joy_n and_o sorrow_n may_v very_o well_o stand_v together_o as_o may_v plain_o appear_v in_o this_o similitude_n if_o any_o of_o we_o have_v commit_v some_o notable_a offence_n and_o be_v thereupon_o apprehend_v and_o condemn_v and_o now_o go_v to_o the_o place_n of_o execution_n there_o to_o endure_v whatsoever_o torture_n the_o wit_n or_o malice_n of_o man_n can_v inflict_v upon_o we_o and_o at_o this_o instant_n some_o dear_a friend_n of_o we_o in_o singular_a compassion_n towards_o we_o shall_v entreat_v that_o the_o execution_n may_v be_v stay_v that_o we_o may_v be_v set_v at_o liberty_n and_o he_o come_v in_o our_o steed_n to_o suffer_v whatsoever_o our_o ill_a deed_n have_v deserve_v we_o can_v not_o but_o be_v glad_a that_o we_o speed_n so_o well_o in_o be_v free_v from_o so_o much_o misery_n and_o yet_o withal_o if_o we_o have_v but_o natural_a kindness_n and_o common_a humanity_n in_o we_o it_o can_v not_o but_o grieve_v our_o soul_n that_o so_o good_a a_o friend_n of_o we_o shall_v be_v put_v to_o such_o exquisite_a torment_n for_o our_o sake_n or_o if_o a_o surety_n shall_v be_v content_a to_o sell_v his_o land_n and_o good_n for_o the_o discharge_n of_o our_o debt_n we_o have_v just_a cause_n to_o rejoice_v thereat_o and_o yet_o reason_n require_v that_o we_o shall_v be_v touch_v with_o inward_a grief_n for_o that_o we_o have_v be_v such_o bankrupt_n and_o provide_v so_o ill_o for_o the_o estate_n of_o our_o surety_n even_o so_o the_o case_n stand_v betwixt_o christ_n and_o we_o he_o do_v undergo_v those_o punishment_n which_o be_v to_o be_v inflict_v upon_o we_o and_o discharge_v those_o debt_n which_o otherwise_o shall_v have_v be_v charge_v upon_o we_o in_o regard_n of_o our_o freedom_n we_o ought_v to_o take_v comfort_n and_o in_o regard_n of_o that_o which_o our_o saviour_n do_v and_o suffer_v for_o we_o we_o must_v be_v humble_v and_o grieve_a use_v 1_o which_o serve_v for_o the_o great_a terror_n of_o sundry_a graceless_a person_n who_o be_v rebuke_v for_o their_o sin_n will_v confess_v that_o indeed_o they_o have_v their_o fault_n and_o infirmity_n but_o do_v not_o the_o son_n of_o god_n die_v say_v they_o to_o redeem_v we_o from_o the_o same_o he_o do_v so_o indeed_o if_o you_o belong_v unto_o he_o and_o will_v you_o crucify_v he_o again_o by_o your_o wretched_a and_o sinful_a behaviour_n do_v christ_n weep_v and_o cry_v and_o sweat_v drop_n of_o blood_n for_o sin_n and_o will_v you_o make_v no_o better_o use_v thereof_o then_o to_o turn_v the_o grace_n of_o god_n into_o wantonness_n and_o to_o take_v your_o swinge_n in_o sin_v because_o christ_n have_v make_v himself_o a_o offering_n for_o the_o same_o you_o proclaim_v unto_o all_o the_o world_n that_o you_o be_v not_o lead_v by_o the_o spirit_n of_o grace_n and_o that_o you_o have_v not_o a_o lively_a faith_n in_o the_o merit_n of_o the_o son_n of_o god_n for_o if_o you_o be_v a_o true_a believer_n you_o will_v be_v so_o far_o from_o continue_v in_o sin_n because_o christ_n have_v redeem_v you_o by_o his_o blood_n that_o you_o will_v therefore_o abhor_v it_o and_o eschew_v it_o because_o it_o cost_v he_o so_o dear_a even_o as_o one_o that_o have_v any_o sparkle_n of_o

their_o heart_n oh_o little_a do_v such_o know_v what_o they_o do_v for_o now_o they_o grieve_v the_o spirit_n of_o grace_n which_o do_v move_v they_o to_o turn_v unto_o the_o lord_n and_o do_v

〈…〉_o our_o to_o bewail_v our_o sin_n with_o a_o 〈◊〉_d lamentation_n such_o as_o be_v mention_v in_o this_o text_n viz._n that_o we_o mourn_v as_o one_o will_v do_v for_o the_o death_n of_o his_o first_o bear_v and_o as_o the_o jew_n do_v for_o josiah_n when_o he_o be_v slay_v in_o the_o valley_n of_o megiddo_n object_n but_o will_n some_o say_v if_o this_o be_v require_v of_o all_o true_a

which_o they_o want_v in_o present_a passion_n natural_a mourning_n be_v ordinary_o more_o violent_a as_o we_o may_v observe_v in_o david_n mourning_n for_o absalon_n who_o cry_v out_o in_o the_o bitterness_n of_o his_o heart_n so_o that_o the_o people_n may_v hear_v he_o but_o godly_a lamentation_n be_v more_o last_a and_o durable_a so_o that_o the_o one_o may_v be_v well_o compare_v to_o a_o

than_o a_o sudden_a violent_a and_o tempestuous_a shower_n and_o herein_o let_v these_o be_v judge_n 〈…〉_o who_o be_v endue_v with_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n and_o be_v acquaint_v with_o the_o way_n
