corruption_n and_o rottenness_n which_o their_o body_n must_v turn_v to_o when_o they_o be_v dead_a but_o admit_v what_o thou_o say_v o_o christian_n shall_v be_v true_a that_o thy_o pain_n in_o die_v shall_v be_v great_a yet_o have_v thou_o not_o sin_v and_o thereby_o deserve_v that_o what_o thou_o fear_v thou_o may_v feel_v let_v i_o tell_v thou_o there_o be_v not_o the_o most_o righteous_a man_n on_o earth_n but_o have_v sin_v and_o the_o least_o sin_n merit_v more_o pain_n than_o any_o man_n in_o the_o first_o death_n ever_o yet_o endure_v if_o therefore_o thy_o pain_n in_o die_v shall_v be_v great_a it_o be_v just_a with_o god_n what_o thou_o suffer_v and_o it_o be_v of_o his_o mercy_n that_o thou_o suffer_v no_o more_o for_o there_o be_v no_o comparison_n between_o thy_o pain_n and_o thy_o sin_n between_o what_o thou_o may_v suffer_v and_o what_o thou_o deserve_v to_o suffer_v let_v thy_o sickness_n be_v what_o it_o will_v and_o thy_o pain_n as_o great_a as_o well_o thou_o can_v imagine_v they_o be_v no_o more_o nay_o they_o be_v not_o so_o much_o as_o thou_o have_v deserve_v if_o god_n shall_v deal_v with_o thou_o according_a to_o the_o demerit_n of_o thy_o sin_n it_o be_v not_o the_o most_o smart_a and_o severe_a pain_n of_o a_o temporal_a death_n that_o be_v end_v by_o die_v but_o easeless_a and_o endless_a torment_n in_o hell_n to_o all_o eternity_n that_o will_v be_v thy_o portion_n fear_v not_o therefore_o o_o living_n christian_n complain_v not_o o_o die_a christian_n though_o thy_o pain_n in_o death_n shall_v be_v great_a for_o it_o be_v but_o the_o punishment_n of_o thy_o sin_n nay_o let_v i_o say_v to_o thou_o o_o christian_n be_v thankful_a and_o rejoice_v for_o it_o be_v the_o last_o punishment_n thou_o shall_v ever_o endure_v for_o thy_o sin_n either_o here_o or_o hereafter_o but_o further_a be_v it_o the_o corruption_n and_o rottenness_n that_o thy_o body_n must_v be_v subject_a to_o in_o the_o grave_a that_o terrify_v and_o affright_v thou_o let_v i_o say_v this_o unto_o thou_o it_o be_v no_o very_o great_a matter_n what_o become_v of_o thy_o body_n when_o it_o be_v once_o dead_a though_o it_o be_v burn_v to_o ash_n at_o a_o stake_n though_o it_o rot_v in_o the_o field_n as_o dung_n upon_o the_o ground_n though_o in_o the_o bowel_n of_o the_o earth_n it_o become_v a_o feast_n for_o worm_n and_o turn_v to_o corruption_n and_o rottenness_n this_o will_v then_o be_v of_o no_o more_o concern_v to_o thou_o than_o if_o it_o have_v with_o the_o great_a cost_n and_o charge_v be_v embalm_v and_o bury_v by_o thy_o dear_a friend_n the_o state_n of_o death_n know_v nor_o feel_v no_o difference_n between_o the_o one_o and_o the_o other_o and_o what_o if_o thy_o body_n lie_v in_o the_o grave_a for_o a_o while_n it_o will_v not_o there_o be_v miserable_a for_o it_o feel_v no_o pain_n but_o rest_v quiet_o in_o its_o bed_n sweet_o sleep_v away_o time_n until_o the_o morning_n of_o the_o resurrection_n when_o thou_o shall_v awake_v out_o of_o the_o dust_n again_o and_o shall_v die_v no_o more_o and_o in_o the_o mean_a time_n thy_o soul_n if_o thou_o be_v a_o true_a believer_n for_o unto_o such_o only_a there_o be_v peace_n and_o comfort_n in_o death_n upon_o its_o departure_n out_o of_o the_o body_n be_v advance_v unto_o unspeakable_a happiness_n in_o heaven_n among_o the_o spirit_n of_o just_a man_n make_v perfect_a in_o the_o eternal_a enjoyment_n of_o the_o infinite_o bless_a god_n the_o fountain_n of_o light_n and_o life_n where_o thou_o shall_v have_v as_o much_o delight_n and_o satisfaction_n as_o thou_o can_v possible_o contain_v and_o more_o than_o now_o thou_o can_v conceive_v and_o why_o then_o be_v thou_o so_o affright_v with_o the_o fear_n of_o death_n when_o this_o be_v all_o the_o hurt_n it_o can_v do_v thou_o o_o but_o death_n be_v that_o which_o will_v take_v i_o from_o all_o my_o friend_n and_o relation_n and_o deprive_v i_o of_o all_o that_o comfort_n and_o delight_n that_o here_o i_o enjoy_v in_o their_o sweet_a society_n to_o this_o i_o answer_v suppose_v it_o be_v so_o that_o by_o death_n thou_o be_v take_v from_o a_o dear_a yoke-fellow_n that_o be_v now_o the_o delight_n of_o thy_o eye_n suppose_v thou_o lose_v all_o thy_o friend_n and_o kindred_n in_o the_o flesh_n who_o thou_o love_v even_o as_o thy_o own_o soul_n not_o know_v certain_o whether_o ever_o thou_o shall_v see_v they_o or_o at_o least_o so_o as_o to_o know_v they_o any_o more_o again_o for_o ever_o if_o this_o be_v all_o thy_o trouble_n how_o easy_o can_v god_n make_v it_o up_o unto_o thou_o alas_o when_o death_n have_v once_o open_v thy_o eye_n and_o let_v thou_o see_v what_o bless_a society_n thou_o shall_v enjoy_v in_o heaven_n thou_o will_v not_o thou_o can_v not_o be_v trouble_v for_o what_o thou_o have_v leave_v behind_o thou_o here_o when_o thou_o be_v come_v to_o the_o heavenly_a jerusalem_n the_o city_n of_o the_o live_a god_n to_o a_o innumerable_a company_n of_o angel_n to_o the_o general_n assembly_n of_o the_o first_o bear_v to_o god_n the_o judge_n of_o all_o to_o the_o spirit_n of_o just_a man_n make_v perfect_a to_o jesus_n the_o

and_o when_o they_o be_v go_v into_o any_o evil_a or_o sinful_a way_n i_o council_n they_o i_o reprove_v they_o and_o i_o pray_v for_o they_o and_o endeavour_v to_o instruct_v they_o in_o the_o fear_n
