pour_v it_o into_o the_o mind_n of_o accurse_a man_n where_o it_o shall_v sit_v without_o abatement_n for_o he_o that_o envy_v there_o envy_v not_o for_o the_o eminence_n of_o another_o that_o sit_v a_o little_a above_o he_o and_o excel_v he_o in_o some_o one_o good_a but_o he_o shall_v envy_v for_o all_o because_o the_o saint_n have_v all_o and_o they_o have_v none_o therefore_o all_o their_o passion_n be_v integral_a abstract_a perfect_a passion_n and_o all_o the_o sorrow_n in_o the_o world_n at_o this_o time_n be_v but_o a_o portion_n of_o sorrow_n every_o man_n have_v his_o share_n and_o yet_o beside_o that_o which_o all_o sad_a man_n have_v there_o be_v a_o great_a deal_n of_o sorrow_n which_o they_o have_v not_o and_o all_o the_o devil_n portion_n beside_o that_o but_o in_o

he_o that_o be_v in_o darkness_n enjoy_v it_o not_o by_o part_n but_o the_o whole_a darkness_n be_v the_o portion_n of_o one_o as_o well_o as_o of_o another_o if_o this_o consideration_n be_v not_o too_o metaphysical_a i_o be_o sure_a it_o be_v very_o sad_a and_o it_o rely_v upon_o this_o that_o as_o in_o heaven_n there_o be_v some_o holy_a spirit_n who_o crown_n be_v all_o love_n and_o some_o in_o which_o the_o bright_a jewel_n be_v understanding_n some_o be_v purity_n and_o some_o be_v holiness_n to_o the_o lord_n so_o in_o the_o region_n of_o sorrow_n evil_a and_o sorrow_n have_v a_o
