say_n consuetudo_fw-la est_fw-la altera_fw-la natura_fw-la custom_n be_v another_o nature_n and_o of_o nature_n it_o be_v no_o less_o true_a that_o the_o poet_n say_v naturam_fw-la expellas_fw-la furcâ_fw-la licèt_fw-la usque_fw-la recurret_fw-la drive_a away_o nature_n with_o a_o pitch-fork_n yet_o it_o will_v return_v it_o must_v then_o be_v necessary_o grant_v that_o it_o be_v a_o hard_a thing_n for_o young_a man_n to_o reform_v their_o way_n 3._o remember_v the_o four_o provocation_n to_o sin_n which_o s_n to_o ambrose_n observ'_v in_o the_o prodigal_n which_o be_v oft_o in_o other_o young_a man_n 1._o his_o portion_n which_o enable_n he_o to_o the_o commit_n of_o sin_n which_o if_o he_o have_v in_o his_o possession_n now_o he_o be_v enable_v to_o lewd_a live_n if_o he_o have_v it_o but_o in_o hope_n even_o this_o do_v embolden_v he_o to_o wicked_a course_n 2._o his_o father_n indulgence_n by_o mean_n whereof_o that_o be_v withhold_v from_o he_o by_o which_o he_o shall_v be_v curb_v and_o keep_v in_o awe_n namely_o severity_n of_o discipline_n 3._o his_o company_n lewd_a young_a man_n like_o himself_o from_o who_o he_o shall_v not_o hear_v any_o thing_n but_o evil_a counsel_n and_o encouragement_n to_o and_o in_o evil_a and_o disheartning_n from_o the_o way_n of_o obedience_n nor_o see_v any_o thing_n but_o evil_a example_n which_o have_v a_o strong_a power_n to_o corrupt_v 4._o his_o youth_n in_o which_o there_o be_v heedlessness_n and_o inexperience_n in_o all_o which_o respect_v it_o can_v but_o be_v a_o difficult_a matter_n for_o young_a man_n to_o reform_v their_o way_n 4._o if_o we_o compare_v childhood_n and_o youth_n together_o we_o shall_v find_v that_o childhood_n be_v far_o more_o easy_o keep_v in_o order_n and_o restrain_v from_o sin_n for_o 1._o the_o age_n itself_o be_v weak_a and_o less_o acquaint_v with_o vice_n 2._o it_o be_v fearful_a and_o stand_v in_o awe_n 3._o common_o it_o be_v spend_v under_o some_o aristarchus_n some_o severe_a and_o rigid_a schoolmaster_n but_o now_o when_o young_a man_n have_v the_o reins_n cast_v upon_o their_o own_o neck_n we_o be_v far_o more_o prone_a to_o grow_v worse_a then_o better_o and_o therefore_o david_n consider_v the_o difficulty_n of_o the_o business_n cast_v about_o which_o way_n it_o may_v be_v effect_v use_v the_o thought_n of_o this_o be_v profitable_a both_o for_o they_o that_o have_v young_a one_o commit_v to_o their_o care_n and_o for_o young_a one_o themselves_o 1._o for_o they_o that_o have_v the_o care_n of_o youth_n commit_v to_o they_o parent_n master_n schoolmaster_n guardian_n let_v the_o thought_n of_o this_o move_v they_o in_o pity_n and_o compassion_n towards_o the_o young_a person_n with_o who_o they_o be_v put_v in_o trust_n to_o be_v so_o much_o the_o more_o helpful_a to_o they_o consider_v i_o beseech_v you_o 1._o how_o necessary_a it_o be_v for_o young_a one_o to_o reform_v their_o way_n death_n be_v a_o impartial_a officer_n not_o spare_v any_o for_o their_o youth_n how_o many_o young_a man_n see_v we_o daily_o take_v out_o of_o this_o world_n and_o it_o be_v woeful_a to_o they_o and_o of_o sad_a consequence_n if_o death_n shall_v make_v a_o divorce_n between_o soul_n and_o body_n before_o a_o divorce_n be_v make_v between_o they_o and_o their_o sin_n 1.15_o rom._n 6.21_o jam._n 1.15_o the_o issue_n of_o sin_n

the_o soul_n from_o the_o body_n but_o also_o the_o second_o death_n the_o perfection_n of_o which_o be_v the_o cast_n of_o the_o sinner_n both_o in_o soul_n and_o body_n from_o god_n the_o fountain_n of_o happiness_n and_o his_o exclusion_n from_o everlasting_a happiness_n than_o which_o there_o be_v no_o great_a loss_n nay_o none_o equal_a to_o it_o and_o the_o cast_n of_o he_o into_o hell_n and_o the_o torment_n of_o it_o which_o be_v endless_a easless_a and_o remediless_a 25._o mar._n 9_o matth._n 25._o where_o the_o worm_n never_o die_v and_o the_o fire_n never_o go_v out_o even_o

young_a man_n how_o many_o hindrance_n there_o be_v in_o the_o wale_n of_o it_o and_o how_o many_o allurement_n they_o have_v to_o go_v on_o in_o their_o sinful_a course_n and_o in_o both_o these_o

will_v ready_o think_v it_o your_o duty_n to_o prevent_v any_o temporary_a mischief_n towards_o they_o in_o their_o body_n or_o estate_n know_v that_o the_o soul_n be_v far_o more_o excellent_a than_o either_o estate_n or_o body_n and_o therefore_o as_o you_o will_v show_v any_o love_n unto_o they_o be_v special_o careful_a to_o prevent_v the_o ruin_n of_o their_o soul_n by_o help_v they_o in_o this_o great_a and_o difficult_a business_n the_o cleanse_n of_o their_o way_n 2._o for_o young_a man_n themselves_o let_v not_o this_o difficulty_n of_o cleanse_v your_o way_n dishearten_v you_o from_o attempt_v this_o business_n let_v it_o rather_o cause_v you_o more_o diligent_o to_o set_v about_o it_o it_o be_v a_o true_a say_n 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d the_o thing_n be_v common_o

excellency_n and_o usefulness_n of_o it_o i_o remember_v a_o passage_n of_o our_o learned_a whitaker_n that_o it_o be_v a_o evident_a argument_n of_o special_a worth_n and_o goodness_n in_o luther_n that_o the_o jesuit_n be_v such_o bitter_a enemy_n to_o he_o as_o it_o be_v a_o argument_n of_o good_a fruit_n on_o the_o tree_n when_o you_o see_v boy_n throw_v stick_n at_o it_o so_o do_v it_o argue_v the_o reformation_n of_o young_a man_n way_n to_o be_v special_o excellent_a and_o useful_a that_o satan_n do_v so_o much_o oppose_v it_o and_o cast_v so_o many_o rub_n in_o the_o way_n by_o how_o much_o therefore_o satan_n seek_n more_o to_o hinder_v you_o in_o the_o cleanse_n of_o your_o way_n by_o so_o much_o more_o be_v young_a apply_v you_o your_o selus_fw-la to_o the_o do_v of_o

yea_o hoc_fw-la aliquid_fw-la est_fw-la voluisse_fw-la it_o be_v something_o that_o we_o will_v do_v it_o you_o therefore_o that_o be_v young_a man_n be_v you_o persuade_v the_o more_o difficulty_n
