it_o 2._o another_o instance_n be_v his_o constant_a own_n and_o savour_v of_o the_o public_a ministry_n and_o that_o not_o only_o by_o his_o own_o constant_a presence_n at_o it_o when_o in_o a_o capacity_n by_o mean_n of_o health_n but_o especial_o by_o encourage_v and_o engage_v other_o to_o a_o constant_a attendance_n upon_o it_o by_o his_o frequent_a word_n to_o that_o purpose_n in_o private_a and_o by_o recommend_v what_o have_v be_v speak_v in_o public_a to_o the_o consideration_n of_o his_o hearer_n as_o many_o of_o you_o that_o be_v here_o present_a be_v able_a to_o testify_v which_o i_o the_o rather_o mention_v that_o it_o may_v serve_v as_o a_o stand_n and_o grateful_a acknowledgement_n of_o that_o encouragement_n which_o he_o give_v from_o time_n to_o time_n to_o my_o ministry_n 3._o and_o last_o another_o instance_n be_v a_o passage_n which_o he_o utter_v to_o some_o that_o watch_v with_o he_o not_o many_o day_n before_o his_o death_n that_o in_o the_o choice_n of_o a_o successor_n to_o he_o in_o his_o ministry_n they_o shall_v labour_v to_o fix_v upon_o one_o of_o a_o quiet_a temper_n and_o moderate_a principle_n upon_o one_o that_o will_v rather_o be_v a_o

which_o have_v be_v hitherto_o preserve_v among_o we_o here_o in_o this_o place_n and_o for_o the_o further_o enforce_v of_o this_o advice_n of_o he_o give_v i_o leave_v to_o add_v a_o passage_n that_o he_o impart_v to_o i_o concern_v the_o sense_n of_o that_o reverend_a person_n under_o who_o conduct_n he_o be_v when_o he_o come_v first_o to_o be_v a_o inhabitant_n of_o this_o town_n to_o wit_n that_o that_o reverend_a person_n judge_v that_o those_o who_o be_v serious_a and_o sober_a among_o the_o conformist_n be_v much_o wise_a and_o more_o to_o be_v value_v than_o those_o forward_a professor_n that_o be_v so_o ready_a upon_o account_n of_o little_a matter_n to_o break_v the_o union_n and_o to_o separate_a from_o the_o communion_n of_o the_o church_n establish_v by_o law_n and_o let_v i_o add_v this_o far_a that_o though_o that_o reverend_a person_n be_v himself_o a_o nonconformist_n yet_o he_o do_v help_v to_o make_v man_n conformist_n by_o his_o write_n some_o of_o which_o to_o my_o knowledge_n be_v now_o fix_v in_o eminent_a station_n in_o the_o church_n and_o indeed_o he_o have_v say_v so_o much_o by_o way_n of_o apology_n for_o the_o conformist_n in_o the_o compass_n of_o one_o page_n which_o you_o will_v find_v in_o the_o 46_o chap._n of_o his_o household_n catechism_n in_o the_o begin_n of_o the_o answer_n to_o the_o 11_o question_n as_o give_v occasion_n to_o a_o person_n of_o eminency_n to_o say_v in_o my_o hear_n that_o he_o wonder_v how_o that_o reverend_a person_n miss_v be_v a_o conformist_n these_o particular_n i_o mention_v the_o rather_o in_o order_n to_o the_o confirm_v you_o against_o the_o thought_n of_o any_o such_o person_n in_o your_o choice_n who_o principle_n may_v lead_v he_o to_o go_v up_o into_o the_o breach_n to_o no_o other_o purpose_n but_o to_o keep_v it_o open_a and_o to_o make_v it_o wide_o to_o be_v sure_o this_o will_v not_o be_v suitable_a to_o the_o temper_n of_o our_o reverend_a friend_n now_o decease_v nay_o which_o be_v more_o will_v not_o be_v suitable_a to_o the_o design_n of_o christ_n in_o his_o last_o prayer_n jo._n 17.21_o when_o he_o pray_v for_o his_o disciple_n that_o they_o all_o may_v be_v one_o as_o thou_o father_n be_v in_o i_o and_o i_o in_o thou_o that_o they_o also_o may_v be_v one_o in_o we_o that_o the_o world_n may_v believe_v that_o thou_o have_v send_v i_o where_o it_o be_v plain_a that_o our_o saviour_n place_v much_o of_o the_o evidence_n and_o demonstration_n of_o the_o truth_n of_o the_o gospel_n upon_o the_o unity_n of_o believer_n and_o this_o may_v serve_v to_o evidence_n the_o second_o particular_a to_o be_v very_o applicable_a to_o our_o decease_a friend_n that_o he_o be_v one_o that_o endure_v and_o acquit_v himself_o well_o under_o the_o temptation_n with_o which_o he_o be_v try_v and_o exercise_v and_o therefore_o what_o follow_v in_o the_o 3d._a place_n but_o that_o we_o shall_v conclude_v that_o he_o in_o particular_n be_v interest_v in_o that_o blessedness_n which_o in_o my_o text_n by_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n be_v entail_v upon_o such_o person_n when_o it_o be_v say_v bless_a be_v the_o man_n that_o endure_v temptation_n for_o
