A44026 Innocency, though under a cloud, cleared By P.H. a poor prisoner, when almost sunk under pretended friends censures in the day of his sufferings. And also, a discovery of the comforts that attends innocency in a prison. As also, twenty four usefull particulars left by him for his children and friends, and being left in a friends hand for his relations, I could not but make them publick; judging it will be no loss to the author, and great gain to the reader, and justly give offence to none. Hobson, Paul. 1664 (1664) Wing H2274A; ESTC R222586 80,187 179

love_v they_o as_o saint_n if_o so_o you_o will_v love_v they_o best_a in_o who_o you_o see_v most_o of_o christ_n and_o grace_n though_o stranger_n other_o way_n to_o you_o 2._o they_o that_o be_v most_o faithful_a and_o downright_a in_o reprove_v you_o for_o sin_n or_o neglect_v of_o duty_n to_o christ_n be_v the_o fit_a object_n of_o a_o christian_n love_n and_o when_o there_o be_v least_o deceit_n in_o thy_o love_n these_o will_v be_v not_o least_o but_o most_o belove_a 3._o that_o love_n be_v common_o the_o best_a that_o love_v that_o most_o that_o be_v see_v least_o and_o that_o be_v not_o so_o much_o for_o act_n without_o as_o grace_n within_o 4._o if_o it_o be_v a_o true_a love_n it_o be_v a_o last_a love_n and_o hold_v out_o in_o time_n of_o danger_n as_o well_o as_o in_o time_n of_o prosperous_a duty_n 5._o true_a love_n be_v see_v most_o and_o know_v best_a when_o as_o the_o party_n belove_v be_v in_o a_o low_a suffer_a condition_n for_o the_o life_n of_o true_a love_n lie_v much_o in_o sympathize_v with_o that_o it_o love_v so_o then_o that_o love_n that_o only_o love_v while_n and_o when_o the_o object_n belove_v can_v communicate_v or_o answer_v its_o love_n with_o a_o reciprocal_a good_a or_o profit_n but_o when_o the_o object_n lie_v under_o suffering_n or_o censure_n or_o want_n it_o draw_v back_o and_o die_v it_o be_v a_o false_a love_n for_o true_a love_n do_v principal_o manifest_v itself_o in_o unity_n community_n and_o sympathy_n and_o in_o the_o last_o be_v see_v most_o 6._o where_o true_a love_n be_v there_o be_v a_o spirit_n that_o attend_v it_o that_o be_v the_o life_n of_o it_o and_o where_o this_o love_n do_v godlike_a and_o christ-like_a go_v forth_o to_o love_v the_o spirit_n of_o that_o love_n go_v forth_o into_o the_o object_n belove_v indear_v and_o unite_n the_o heart_n and_o life_n of_o each_o other_o as_o jonathan_n and_o david_n 7._o true_o godlike_a and_o christ-like_a love_n be_v not_o only_o a_o sympathize_v and_o unite_n love_n but_o it_o be_v a_o bear_n &_o cover_v love_n it_o be_v nimble_a eye_a to_o see_v beauty_n but_o very_o dim_a to_o see_v deformity_n but_o because_o there_o be_v so_o much_o deceit_n in_o love_n let_v i_o advise_v you_o to_o take_v heed_n of_o false_a love_n or_o imitate_v love_n that_o will_v deceive_v 1._o that_o love_n will_v deceive_v that_o love_v part_n more_o than_o principle_n yet_o think_v it_o be_v for_o principle_n they_o love_v 2._o when_o as_o their_o love_n to_o the_o party_n belove_v be_v very_o high_a and_o violent_a while_o the_o party_n be_v in_o credit_n but_o if_o under_o reproach_n or_o cloud_n or_o censure_n their_o seem_a love_n be_v with_o great_a ease_n &_o readiness_n turn_v into_o censure_v and_o for_o the_o most_o part_n without_o either_o examination_n or_o reluctancy_n but_o in_o true_a love_n where_o life_n go_v out_o it_o be_v not_o so_o easy_o call_v in_o but_o will_v turn_v and_o search_v and_o search_v before_o it_o will_v shift_v 3._o a_o three_o deceit_n ride_v only_o upon_o or_o most_o upon_o the_o wing_n of_o oneness_n in_o judgement_n as_o to_o the_o visible_a way_n of_o god_n &_o christ_n or_o in_o other_o way_n but_o other_o that_o have_v more_o grace_n be_v not_o so_o much_o belove_v unless_o they_o be_v of_o the_o same_o length_n breadth_n &_o height_n in_o point_n of_o judgement_n this_o sort_n of_o love_n be_v the_o most_o universal_o deceivable_a in_o this_o day_n and_o yet_o the_o most_o sad_a threadbare_a love_n that_o ever_o the_o devil_n spin_v 4._o it_o be_v when_o soul_n love_v only_o so_o long_o as_o they_o be_v belove_v 5._o another_o deceit_n in_o love_n be_v when_o man_n in_o their_o love_n under_o the_o notion_n of_o religion_n or_o grace_n be_v more_o to_o woman_n than_o to_o man_n and_o in_o woman_n to_o man_n more_o than_o to_o woman_n all_o love_n ought_v to_o be_v look_v after_o but_o this_o to_o have_v a_o double_a watch_n now_o because_o the_o best_a way_n to_o try_v the_o truth_n of_o love_n be_v by_o the_o property_n that_o the_o scripture_n witness_v to_o be_v in_o true_a love_n i_o shall_v say_v no_o more_o as_o to_o the_o truth_n or_o

it_o appear_v never_o so_o high_a yet_o it_o be_v but_o false_a deceitful_a imitate_v love_n it_o be_v good_a to_o consider_v well_o what_o love_n be_v true_a spiritual_a love_n spring_v out_o of_o
