to_o make_v their_o best_a use_n of_o they_o which_o be_v these_o follow_v 1._o that_o death_n be_v a_o common_a thing_n and_o a_o debt_n we_o all_o owe_v to_o nature_n and_o must_v short_o pay_v and_o therefore_o it_o shall_v not_o so_o much_o trouble_v we_o to_o behold_v it_o in_o another_o 2._o that_o we_o can_v recall_v our_o friend_n and_o relation_n by_o our_o mourning_n and_o

worldly_a thing_n will_v change_v their_o hue_n and_o put_v on_o as_o it_o be_v another_o face_n it_o be_v sure_a that_o 5.12_o death_n pass_v upon_o all_o man_n but_o as_o st._n paul_n say_v because_o all_o man_n have_v sin_v and_o from_o thence_o it_o be_v that_o death_n have_v such_o a_o sting_n and_o it_o be_v sin_n that_o have_v make_v sorrow_n and_o trouble_v attendant_n on_o death_n as_o well_o as_o death_n on_o it_o both_o for_o ourselves_o and_o other_o and_o therefore_o the_o contemplation_n of_o the_o primary_n cause_n of_o our_o sorrow_n shall_v rather_o take_v up_o our_o
