may_v be_v speak_v here_o as_o the_o holy_a ghost_n have_v utter_v in_o the_o word_n and_o that_o i_o will_v reduce_v to_o certain_a rule_n the_o first_o be_v that_o the_o will_n must_v be_v make_v

good_n evil_a get_v be_v not_o restore_v before_o they_o must_v even_o then_o be_v restore_v by_o will_n or_o by_o some_o other_o way_n it_o be_v the_o practice_n of_o covetous_a man_n to_o bequeath_v their_o soul_n when_o they_o die_v to_o god_n &_o withal_o to_o bequeath_v their_o good_n evil_a get_v to_o their_o child_n &_o friend_n which_o in_o all_o equity_n shall_v be_v restore_v to_o they_o

the_o case_n be_v common_a &_o the_o answer_n be_v this_o when_o he_o be_v know_v who_o thou_o have_v wrong_v restore_v to_o he_o particular_o if_o the_o party_n be_v unknown_a or_o dead_a restore_v

before_o death_n now_o follow_v the_o second_o part_n of_o dying-well_a namely_o the_o disposition_n in_o death_n this_o disposition_n be_v nothing_o else_o but_o a_o religious_a and_o holy_a behaviour_n special_o towards_o god_n when_o we_o be_v in_o or_o near_o the_o agony_n and_o pang_n of_o death_n this_o behaviour_n contain_v three_o special_a duty_n the_o first_o be_v to_o die_v in_o or_o by_o faith_n to_o die_v by_o faith_n be_v when_o a_o man_n in_o the_o time_n of_o death_n do_v with_o all_o his_o heart_n rely_v himself_o whole_o on_o god_n special_a love_n and_o favour_n and_o mercy_n in_o christ_n as_o it_o be_v reveal_v in_o the_o word_n and_o though_o there_o be_v no_o part_n of_o man_n life_n void_a of_o just_a occasion_n whereby_o we_o may_v put_v faith_n in_o practice_n yet_o the_o special_a time_n of_o all_o be_v the_o pang_n of_o death_n when_o friend_n and_o riches_n and_o pleasure_n and_o the_o outward_a sense_n &_o temporal_a life_n &_o all_o earthly_a help_n forsake_v us._n for_o then_o true_a faith_n make_v we_o to_o go_v whole_o out_o of_o ourselves_o and_o to_o despair_v of_o comfort_n and_o salvation_n in_o respect_n of_o a_o earthly_a thing_n &_o with_o all_o the_o power_n &_o strength_n of_o the_o heart_n to_o rest_v on_o the_o pure_a mercy_n of_o god_n this_o make_v luther_n both_o think_v and_o say_v that_o man_n be_v best_a christian_n in_o death_n a_o example_n of_o this_o faith_n we_o have_v in_o david_n who_o when_o he_o see_v nothing_o before_o his_o eye_n but_o present_a death_n the_o people_n intend_v to_o stone_n he_o comfort_v he_o at_o that_o very_a instant_n as_o the_o text_n say_v in_o the_o lord_n his_o god_n ●_o and_o this_o comfort_n he_o reap_v in_o that_o by_o faith_n he_o apply_v unto_o his_o own_o soul_n the_o merciful_a promise_n of_o god_n as_o he_o testify_v of_o himself_o remember_v say_v he_o the_o promise_n make_v to_o thy_o servant_n 49.50_o wherein_o thou_o have_v cause_v i_o to_o

heart_n and_o my_o portion_n for_o ever_o now_o look_v what_o david_n here_o do_v the_o same_o must_v every_o one_o of_o we_o do_v in_o the_o like_a case_n when_o the_o israelite_n in_o the_o wilderness_n be_v sting_v with_o fiery_a serpent_n 3.14_o and_o lay_v at_o the_o point_n of_o death_n they_o look_v up_o to_o the_o brazen_a serpent_n which_o be_v erect_v by_o the_o appointment_n of_o god_n and_o be_v present_o heal_v even_o so_o when_o any_o man_n feel_v death_n to_o draw_v near_o &_o his_o fiery_a sting_n to_o pierce_v the_o heart_n he_o must_v fix_v the_o eye_n of_o a_o true_a and_o lively_a faith_n upon_o christ_n exalt_v and_o crucify_v on_o the_o cross_n which_o be_v do_v he_o shall_v by_o death_n enter_v into_o eternal_a life_n now_o because_o true_a faith_n be_v no_o dead_a thing_n it_o must_v be_v express_v by_o especial_a action_n the_o principal_a whereof_o be_v invocation_n whereby_o either_o prayer_n or_o thanksgiving_n be_v direct_v unto_o god_n when_o

almost_o shall_v we_o find_v the_o practice_n &_o obedience_n of_o it_o in_o man_n life_n &_o conversation_n alas_o alas_o to_o lend_v our_o ear_n for_o the_o space_n of_o a_o hour_n to_o hear_v the_o will_n of_o god_n be_v common_a but_o to_o give_v heart_n &_o hand_n to_o do_v the_o same_o be_v rare_a and_o the_o reason_n hereof_o be_v athand_n we_o be_v all_o most_o grievous_a sinner_n &_o every_o sinner_n in_o the_o term_n of_o scripture_n be_v a_o fool_n and_o a_o principal_a part_n of_o his_o folly_n be_v to_o care_n for_o the_o thing_n of_o this_o world_n and_o to_o neglect_v the_o kingdom_n of_o heaven_n to_o provide_v for_o the_o body_n &_o not_o for_o the_o soul_n to_o cast_v and_o forecast_v how_o we_o may_v live_v in_o wealth_n and_o honour_n and_o ease_n and_o not_o to_o use_v the_o least_o forecast_n to_o die_v well_o this_o folly_n our_o saviour_n christ_n note_v in_o the_o rich_a man_n that_o be_v careful_a to_o enlarge_v his_o barn_n 11._o but_o have_v no_o care_n at_o all_o for_o his_o end_n or_o for_o the_o salvation_n of_o his_o soul_n such_o a_o one_o be_v achitophel_n who_o as_o the_o scripture_n term_n he_o be_v as_o the_o very_a oracle_n of_o god_n for_o council_n be_v a_o man_n of_o great_a wisdom_n &_o forecast_n in_o the_o matter_n of_o the_o common_a wealth_n and_o in_o his_o own_o private_a worldly_a affair_n and_o yet_o for_o all_o this_o he_o have_v not_o so_o much_o as_o common_a sense_n and_o reason_n to_o consider_v how_o he_o may_v die_v the_o death_n of_o the_o righteous_a &_o come_v to_o life_n everlasting_a and_o this_o folly_n the_o holy_a ghost_n have_v note_v in_o he_o for_o the_o text_n say_v when_o he_o see_v that_o his_o counsel_n be_v despise_v 17.23_o he_o saddle_v his_o ass_n and_o arise_v &_o go_v home_o into_o

in_o the_o fear_n of_o god_n cast_v off_o this_o damnable_a folly_n first_o of_o all_o seek_v the_o kingdom_n of_o god_n and_o his_o righteousness_n and_o lead_v our_o life_n in_o faith_n and_o obedience_n that_o we_o may_v die_v according_o and_o thus_o much_o of_o the_o first_o point_n of_o doctrine_n namely_o that_o there_o be_v a_o certain_a way_n whereby_o a_o man_n may_v die_v well_o now_o i_o come_v to_o the_o second_o whereas_o therefore_o solomon_n say_v that_o the_o day_n of_o death_n be_v better_a than_o the_o day_n of_o birth_n we_o be_v further_a teach_v that_o such_o as_o true_o believe_v themselves_o to_o be_v the_o child_n of_o god_n be_v not_o to_o fear_v death_n overmuch_o i_o say_v overmuch_o because_o they_o must_v partly_o fear_v it_o and_o partly_o not_o fear_v it_o they_o must_v for_o two_o cause_n the_o first_o because_o death_n be_v the_o destruction_n of_o humane_a nature_n in_o a_o man_n own_o self_n &_o other_o and_o in_o this_o respect_n christ_n fear_v it_o without_o sin_n and_o we_o must_v not_o fear_v it_o otherwise_o then_o we_o fear_v sickness_n and_o poverty_n and_o famine_n with_o other_o sorrow_n of_o body_n and_o mind_n which_o god_n will_v not_o have_v we_o to_o despise_v or_o light_o to_o regard_v but_o to_o feel_v with_o some_o pain_n because_o they_o be_v correction_n &_o punishment_n for_o sin_n and_o he_o do_v therefore_o lay_v upon_o we_o pain_n &_o torment_n that_o they_o may_v be_v fear_v and_o eschew_v and_o that_o by_o eschew_v they_o we_o may_v further_o learn_v to_o eschew_v the_o cause_n of_o they_o which_o be_v sin_n and_o by_o experience_n in_o feel_v of_o pain_n acknowledge_v that_o god_n be_v a_o judge_n and_o enemy_n of_o sin_n and_o be_v exceed_o angry_a with_o it_o the_o second_o cause_n of_o the_o fear_n of_o death_n be_v the_o loss_n of_o the_o church_n or_o commonwealth_n when_o we_o or_o other_o be_v deprive_v of_o they_o which_o be_v indeed_o or_o may_v have_v be_v a_o help_n stay_v &_o comfort_n to_o either_o of_o they_o and_o who_o death_n have_v procure_v some_o public_a or_o private_a loss_n again_o we_o be_v not_o to_o fear_v death_n but_o to_o be_v glad_a of_o it_o and_o that_o for_o many_o cause_n first_o of_o all_o in_o it_o we_o have_v occasion_n to_o show_v our_o subjection_n and_o obedience_n which_o we_o owe_v unto_o god_n when_o he_o call_v we_o out_o of_o this_o world_n as_o christ_n say_v father_n not_o my_o will_n but_o thy_o will_n be_v do_v second_o all_o sin_n be_v abolish_v by_o death_n and_o we_o they_o cease_v to_o offend_v god_n any_o more_o as_o we_o have_v do_v three_o the_o dead_a body_n be_v bring_v into_o a_o better_a condition_n than_o ever_o it_o be_v in_o this_o life_n for_o by_o death_n it_o be_v make_v insensible_a and_o by_o that_o mean_v it_o be_v free_v from_o all_o the_o misery_n and_o calamity_n of_o this_o life_n &_o it_o cease_v to_o be_v either_o a_o active_a or_o passive_a instrument_n of_o sin_n whereas_o in_o the_o life_n time_n it_o be_v both_o four_o it_o give_v the_o soul_n passage_n to_o rest_n life_n and_o celestial_a glory_n in_o which_o we_o shall_v see_v god_n as_o he_o be_v perfect_o know_v he_o and_o praise_v his_o name_n for_o ever_o keep_v without_o intermission_n a_o eternal_a sabbath_n therefore_o paul_n say_v i_o desire_v to_o be_v dissolve_v and_o be_v with_o christ_n for_o that_o be_v best_a of_o all_o five_o god_n execute_v his_o judgement_n upon_o the_o wicked_a and_o purge_v his_o church_n by_o death_n now_o in_o all_o these_o respect_n godly_a man_n have_v cause_n not_o to_o fear_v and_o sorrow_n but_o to_o rejoice_v in_o their_o own_o death_n and_o the_o death_n of_o other_o three_o if_o the_o day_n of_o death_n be_v so_o excellent_a yea_o a_o day_n of_o happiness_n than_o it_o be_v lawful_a to_o desire_v death_n and_o man_n do_v not_o always_o sin_n in_o wish_v for_o death_n paul_n say_v i_o desire_v to_o be_v dissolued_n and_o again_o o_o miserable_a man_n who_o shall_v deliver_v i_o from_o this_o body_n of_o death_n yet_o this_o desire_n must_v not_o be_v simple_a but_o restrain_v with_o certain_a respect_n which_o be_v these_o first_o death_n must_v

observe_v the_o first_o that_o this_o desire_n must_v not_o be_v immoderate_a the_o second_o it_o must_v be_v join_v with_o submission_n and_o subjection_n to_o the_o good_a pleasure_n of_o god_n if_o
