memorable_a and_o exemplary_a couple_n i_o may_v well_o join_v they_o in_o my_o speech_n they_o be_v so_o many_o way_n join_v in_o themselves_o they_o be_v join_v in_o affinity_n and_o alliance_n they_o be_v join_v in_o affection_n and_o love_n they_o be_v join_v in_o the_o quality_n and_o nature_n of_o their_o disease_n and_o will_v not_o be_v sever_v till_o death_n do_v it_o in_o the_o

now_o in_o your_o sight_n i_o shall_v not_o speak_v much_o because_o i_o can_v hardly_o speak_v enough_o with_o her_o former_a time_n i_o have_v have_v no_o acquaintance_n and_o therefore_o can_v

affair_n her_o joy_n in_o spiritual_a discourse_n and_o her_o frequency_n and_o fervency_n in_o devout_a prayer_n for_o the_o first_o if_o we_o consider_v the_o impediment_n it_o be_v much_o she_o shall_v do_v it_o so_o cheerful_o she_o be_v but_o young_a and_o enter_v upon_o the_o prime_n of_o her_o year_n she_o have_v small_a and_o tender_a infant_n of_o her_o own_o that_o go_v near_o she_o

submit_v herself_o unto_o it_o she_o resolute_o go_v forth_o to_o meet_v it_o and_o lest_o he_o shall_v miss_v she_o she_o call_v it_o unto_o she_o come_v gentle_a death_n and_o even_o hold_v forth_o her_o arm_n to_o receive_v and_o embrace_v it_o for_o the_o second_o i_o be_v with_o she_o often_o yet_o never_o hear_v a_o word_n of_o worldly_a matter_n or_o secular_a affair_n so_o much_o as_o fall_v from_o her_o tongue_n her_o heart_n be_v bend_v on_o heaven_n which_o make_v it_o delight_v so_o much_o in_o heavenly_a contemplation_n they_o come_v down_o upon_o she_o as_o the_o scripture_n speak_v like_o rain_n into_o a_o fleece_n of_o wool_n and_o as_o a_o shower_n upon_o a_o thirsty_a land_n with_o what_o a_o open_a and_o greedy_a ear_n do_v she_o suck_v in_o celestial_a comfort_n which_o she_o short_o after_o vent_v out_o again_o in_o devout_a supplication_n wherein_o the_o mercy_n of_o the_o lord_n do_v not_o forsake_v she_o even_o to_o the_o last_o gasp_n and_o then_o at_o last_o when_o her_o hand_n forsake_v her_o tongue_n and_o her_o tongue_n have_v almost_o forsake_v her_o heart_n yet_o her_o heart_n do_v still_o adhere_v unto_o god_n in_o uncessant_a prayer_n and_o therefore_o she_o entreat_v other_o to_o hold_v her_o faint_a hand_n that_o her_o tongue_n fail_v they_o at_o least_o may_v testify_v that_o her_o soul_n do_v commune_v with_o her_o maker_n it_o

if_o you_o do_v they_o must_v be_v tear_n of_o joy_n not_o of_o sorrow_n at_o least_o they_o must_v be_v for_o yourselves_o not_o for_o she_o you_o may_v bewail_v your_o own_o loss_n you_o can_v
