such_o a_o judgement_n who_o have_v provoke_v god_n to_o that_o degree_n that_o it_o will_v be_v no_o wonder_n if_o he_o shall_v give_v they_o up_o yea_o concern_v who_o there_o be_v reason_n to_o fear_v it_o if_o speedy_a repentance_n do_v not_o prevent_v have_v therefore_o speak_v 1._o to_o the_o nature_n of_o this_o judgement_n and_o second_o consider_v the_o step_n and_o method_n whereby_o

those_o who_o fear_v they_o be_v thus_o leave_v and_o give_v up_o by_o god_n several_a thing_n i_o name_v which_o they_o allege_v as_o the_o ground_n of_o their_o fear_n which_o yet_o will_v not_o

with_o who_o conscience_n be_v a_o asleep_a or_o fear_v when_o that_o sin_n which_o former_o thy_o conscience_n will_v reprove_v thou_o for_o thou_o can_v now_o commit_v without_o remorse_n or_o difficulty_n when_o such_o or_o such_o a_o lust_n can_v be_v free_o indulge_v and_o thy_o heart_n not_o reproach_v thou_o thy_o conscience_n not_o fly_v in_o thy_o face_n or_o speak_v with_o any_o smartness_n and_o authority_n against_o it_o as_o former_o it_o be_v wont_a to_o do_v when_o the_o neglect_v of_o such_o or_o such_o duty_n be_v a_o daily_o trouble_v to_o thou_o heretofore_o but_o now_o thou_o can_v let_v they_o alone_o and_o thy_o conscience_n will_v let_v thou_o alone_o without_o rebuke_v thou_o or_o call_v thou_o to_o repentance_n as_o it_o be_v wont_a to_o do_v or_o if_o conscience_n do_v speak_v it_o be_v with_o much_o faintness_n without_o any_o such_o impression_n of_o fear_n and_o shame_n and_o sorrow_n as_o be_v wont_a to_o be_v produce_v by_o it_o this_o speak_v as_o if_o god_n have_v already_o give_v thou_o up_o in_o some_o degree_n or_o thou_o be_v very_o near_o what_o be_v worse_o in_o very_o great_a danger_n of_o this_o dreadful_a judgement_n this_o
