christ_n it_o be_v necessary_a that_o christian_n have_v this_o kind_n of_o sorrow_n to_o this_o i_o answer_v first_o that_o it_o be_v not_o the_o great_a turbulent_a sorrow_n that_o break_v the_o heart_n answ._n and_o mollify_v and_o soften_v it_o but_o there_o be_v another_o sorrow_n which_o i_o call_v a_o temper_a sorrow_n and_o that_o sorrow_n have_v in_o it_o both_o a_o sight_n of_o hell_n and_o a_o sight_n of_o heaven_n a_o sight_n of_o sin_n and_o a_o sight_n of_o grace_n in_o christ_n which_o far_o exceed_v this_o sorrow_n for_o as_o it_o be_v with_o joy_n the_o great_a joy_n be_v not_o express_v by_o laughter_n for_o that_o be_v the_o great_a joy_n that_o be_v the_o joy_n of_o the_o inward_a man_n so_o it_o be_v not_o the_o great_a grief_n that_o be_v express_v by_o tear_n and_o as_o it_o be_v not_o the_o great_a fire_n that_o make_v the_o most_o crackle_v and_o noise_n nor_o that_o the_o deep_a water_n that_o make_v the_o most_o roar_a so_o be_v it_o not_o the_o great_a grief_n or_o sorrow_n that_o express_v itself_o by_o this_o turbulent_a passion_n of_o the_o mind_n but_o the_o great_a grief_n be_v nothing_o when_o a_o sinner_n apprehend_v sin_n within_o and_o see_v it_o in_o its_o own_o colour_n than_o it_o humble_v he_o second_o to_o this_o i_o answer_v that_o there_o be_v degree_n of_o this_o sorrow_n and_o this_o arise_v from_o the_o nature_n answ._n of_o man_n some_o man_n be_v of_o a_o more_o hardy_a nature_n than_o other_o and_o again_o some_o be_v of_o a_o more_o soft_a and_o tender_a disposition_n for_o example_n some_o man_n flesh_n will_v heal_v soon_o than_o other_o though_o the_o wound_n be_v the_o same_o so_o some_o have_v more_o soft_a and_o gentle_a nature_n and_o therefore_o soon_o wrought_v upon_o again_o some_o god_n intend_v to_o build_v a_o great_a work_n upon_o and_o therefore_o he_o humble_v they_o the_o more_o again_o some_o he_o will_v season_v above_o other_o and_o therefore_o will_v humble_v they_o the_o more_o that_o so_o they_o may_v be_v fit_a for_o it_o three_o to_o this_o i_o answer_v that_o although_o all_o answ._n have_v not_o the_o like_a measure_n of_o sorrow_n neither_o the_o same_o apprehension_n of_o sin_n that_o other_o have_v &_o therefore_o be_v not_o so_o much_o cast_v down_o in_o such_o a_o manner_n as_o other_o be_v yet_o it_o be_v not_o because_o they_o be_v not_o humble_a at_o all_o but_o because_o the_o condition_n follow_v it_o so_o close_o that_o it_o have_v not_o power_n to_o work_v that_o effect_n in_o they_o which_o it_o do_v in_o other_o that_o see_v the_o same_o condition_n a_o far_o off_o or_o not_o at_o all_o they_o apprehend_v christ_n by_o faith_n and_o see_v reconciliation_n through_o he_o and_o therefore_o be_v not_o so_o deject_a as_o other_o that_o see_v he_o not_o thus_o and_o therefore_o be_v not_o discourage_v though_o thou_o find_v that_o thy_o humiliation_n be_v not_o so_o great_a as_o other_o the_o thing_n may_v be_v the_o same_o and_o the_o apprehension_n the_o same_o but_o christ_n the_o condition_n of_o thy_o peace_n be_v apprehend_v near_o thou_o by_o faith_n and_o this_o qualify_v the_o tempest_n of_o the_o soul_n but_o christ_n be_v not_o see_v of_o the_o other_o as_o a_o saviour_n and_o this_o make_v the_o difference_n as_o for_o example_n there_o be_v two_o man_n set_v upon_o by_o robber_n the_o one_o see_v no_o help_n or_o no_o way_n to_o escape_v and_o hereupon_o he_o be_v marvellous_o afflict_a and_o astonish_v because_o he_o find_v himfelfe_n unable_a to_o resist_v or_o make_v his_o party_n good_a with_o they_o but_o the_o other_o man_n beset_v with_o robber_n see_v another_o near_a hand_n that_o will_v stand_v close_o to_o he_o and_o thereupon_o he_o trust_v hope_n and_o depend_v upon_o the_o man_n to_o help_v he_o this_o man_n see_v the_o danger_n aswell_o as_o the_o other_o and_o fear_n but_o his_o fear_n be_v not_o a_o distract_a fear_n neither_o be_v it_o so_o great_a as_o the_o other_o because_o it_o be_v mix_v with_o joy_n and_o confidence_n in_o that_o he_o see_v a_o way_n to_o escape_v yet_o he_o fear_v the_o same_o that_o the_o other_o fear_n and_o be_v true_o humble_v and_o thankful_a unto_o he_o that_o save_v he_o from_o the_o danger_n thus_o it_o be_v with_o many_o christian_n they_o that_o have_v a_o turbulent_a kind_n of_o sorrow_n see_v death_n and_o hell_n and_o sin_n and_o damnation_n but_o he_o see_v christ_n so_o far_o off_o that_o he_o can_v depend_v upon_o christ_n as_o a_o saviour_n and_o hence_o for_o the_o present_a be_v marvellous_o cast_v down_o but_o he_o that_o have_v the_o mix_a sorrow_n speak_v of_o see_v the_o same_o in_o the_o same_o manner_n but_o withal_o he_o apprehend_v christ_n as_o a_o helper_n as_o a_o saviour_n and_o here_o upon_o be_v not_o so_o much_o deject_v and_o cast_v do_v wne_z as_o the_o other_z and_o yet_o notwithstanding_o be_v as_o true_o humble_v and_o thankful_a as_o the_o other_o therefore_o labour_v to_o get_v a_o heart_n sensible_a of_o sin_n that_o be_v labour_v to_o know_v sin_n and_o the_o evil_a of_o it_o and_o withal_o labour_v to_o see_v christ_n or_o else_o you_o will_v be_v over-frighted_n with_o they_o as_o a_o man_n that_o be_v in_o prison_n for_o treason_n or_o a_o great_a fact_n he_o know_v before_o what_o sentence_n the_o judge_n and_o jury_n will_v pass_v upon_o he_o but_o he_o care_v not_o if_o before_o he_o have_v get_v the_o king_n pardon_n so_o if_o you_o know_v sin_n and_o know_v the_o punishment_n of_o sin_n but_o know_v not_o christ_n you_o will_v have_v no_o comfort_n in_o your_o knowledge_n labour_v therefore_o to_o get_v the_o holy_a ghost_n for_o it_o be_v the_o work_n of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n to_o convince_v the_o world_n of_o sin_n john_n 16._o 9_o 9_o a_o man_n be_v no_o soon_o convict_v but_o there_o will_v be_v a_o change_n wrought_v in_o he_o for_o a_o man_n be_v then_o convict_v when_o he_o be_v overcome_v every_o way_n

or_o no_o for_o your_o better_a help_n i_o will_v lay_v down_o some_o sign_n by_o which_o you_o may_v examine_v yourselves_o and_o then_o according_o you_o may_v judge_v of_o your_o estate_n the_o

this_o we_o see_v in_o the_o woman_n in_o the_o gospel_n and_o it_o be_v christ_n commendation_n of_o she_o that_o she_o love_v much_o that_o be_v she_o be_v sensible_a of_o that_o which_o christ_n
