all_o the_o branch_n that_o rise_v from_o the_o root_n must_v needs_o be_v dead_a also_o again_o spiritual_a life_n be_v nothing_o else_o but_o a_o conjunction_n of_o the_o soul_n with_o the_o

when_o the_o instrument_n be_v unstring_v he_o lay_v it_o aside_o when_o the_o vessel_n be_v break_v or_o bore_v through_o he_o cast_v it_o away_o and_o leave_v it_o even_o so_o do_v the_o soul_n depart_v from_o the_o body_n when_o it_o grow_v ruinous_a when_o it_o be_v make_v inhabitable_a through_o mortal_a disease_n it_o lay_v it_o aside_o as_o a_o outwear_v garment_n and_o after_o the_o

of_o natural_a corruption_n and_o this_o be_v the_o case_n of_o every_o natural_a man_n whatsoever_o till_o he_o be_v renew_v by_o the_o infusion_n of_o a_o new_a life_n and_o yet_o it_o be_v the_o

with_o the_o affection_n of_o it_o so_o that_o if_o there_o be_v one_o live_a lust_n in_o a_o man_n if_o there_o be_v one_o lust_n perfect_o live_v it_o be_v a_o argument_n that_o the_o whole_a body_n of_o death_n be_v alive_a in_o we_o and_o if_o it_o be_v so_o we_o be_v yet_o in_o a_o state_n of_o death_n and_o be_v not_o translate_v to_o the_o glorious_a liberty_n of_o the_o son_n of_o god_n and_o so_o i_o have_v show_v you_o that_o every_o man_n by_o nature_n be_v dead_a in_o trespass_n and_o sin_n and_o how_o you_o shall_v know_v it_o and_o that_o if_o we_o continue_v in_o that_o condition_n and_o be_v not_o partaker_n of_o the_o first_o resurrection_n we_o shall_v never_o partake_v of_o the_o second_o resurrection_n now_o we_o come_v to_o the_o second_o namely_o that_o there_o be_v a_o life_n that_o be_v contrary_a to_o this_o death_n &_o that_o you_o may_v understand_v what_o it_o be_v you_o must_v know_v that_o every_o man_n by_o nature_n be_v in_o a_o dead_a sleep_n and_o therefore_o he_o see_v not_o this_o death_n nor_o feel_v it_o nor_o regard_v it_o for_o as_o a_o dead_a man_n feel_v not_o that_o he_o be_v dead_a so_o he_o that_o want_v this_o spiritual_a life_n he_o be_v not_o sensible_a of_o it_o for_o the_o soul_n in_o the_o worse_a condition_n it_o be_v the_o less_o it_o feel_v it_o though_o it_o be_v not_o so_o with_o the_o body_n and_o therefore_o the_o first_o thing_n that_o must_v be_v do_v to_o bring_v a_o man_n out_o of_o this_o miserable_a condition_n of_o death_n be_v to_o waken_v he_o to_o open_v his_o eye_n to_o see_v that_o he_o be_v a_o child_n of_o wrath_n and_o to_o see_v what_o extreme_a need_n he_o stand_v in_o of_o jesus_n christ_n and_o to_o seek_v and_o to_o long_o after_o he_o as_o a_o condemn_a man_n

who_o he_o mean_v to_o save_v to_o waken_v he_o out_o of_o this_o dead_a sleep_n to_o charge_v sin_n upon_o his_o conscience_n and_o to_o set_v it_o upon_o he_o to_o pursue_v he_o as_o the_o avenger_n of_o blood_n we_o speak_v of_o before_o when_o that_o be_v do_v once_o than_o a_o man_n will_v fly_v to_o the_o city_n of_o refuge_n that_o be_v he_o fly_v to_o christ_n as_o joab_n do_v to_o the_o

for_o when_o a_o man_n touch_v christ_n by_o faith_n as_o the_o woman_n touch_v the_o hem_n of_o his_o garment_n there_o go_v a_o certain_a virtue_n out_o from_o he_o that_o heal_v the_o soul_n as_o
