have_v you_o ever_o have_v a_o business_n of_o great_a importance_n to_o transact_v in_o all_o your_o day_n if_o you_o be_v to_o dispose_v of_o a_o estate_n or_o a_o child_n will_v you_o not_o have_v all_o thing_n be_v as_o express_v and_o clear_a as_o may_v be_v and_o will_v not_o they_o insist_v to_o have_v it_o so_o with_o who_o you_o deal_v in_o any_o such_o affair_n and_o be_v there_o not_o a_o solemnity_n belong_v to_o all_o such_o transaction_n especial_o if_o you_o be_v to_o dispose_v of_o yourself_o as_o in_o the_o conjugal_a covenant_n though_o that_o be_v to_o be_v but_o for_o this_o short_a uncertain_a time_n of_o life_n so_o as_o that_o the_o relation_n you_o enter_v into_o to_o day_n may_v be_v by_o death_n dissolve_v and_o break_v off_o again_o to_o morrow_n how_o much_o more_o explicit_a clear_a and_o solemn_a shall_v this_o your_o covenant_v with_o god_n in_o christ_n be_v wherein_o you_o be_v to_o make_v over_o your_o soul_n to_o he_o and_o for_o eternity_n you_o be_v to_o become_v he_o under_o the_o bond_n of_o a_o everlasting_a covenant_n you_o be_v enter_v a_o relation_n never_o to_o be_v break_v off_o this_o god_n be_v to_o be_v your_o god_n for_o

child_n that_o you_o be_v place_v out_o but_o for_o a_o term_n of_o year_n that_o soon_o expire_v yea_o or_o than_o a_o piece_n of_o ground_n or_o a_o horse_n or_o a_o sheep_n about_o which_o how_o punctual_a and_o express_a be_v your_o bargain_n and_o contract_n wont_a to_o be_v or_o be_v only_o the_o matter_n of_o your_o soul_n and_o wherein_o you_o have_v to_o do_v with_o the_o great_a god_n to_o be_v slight_o manage_v or_o to_o be_v huddle_v up_o in_o confusion_n or_o to_o be_v slide_v over_o in_o silent_a intimation_n it_o be_v true_a that_o so_o express_v and_o solemn_a deal_n in_o yield_v and_o give_v up_o yourselves_o to_o god_n be_v not_o needful_a on_o his_o part_n who_o understand_v sincerity_n without_o any_o expression_n of_o you_o but_o it_o be_v needful_a on_o your_o part_n that_o a_o deep_a and_o last_a impression_n may_v be_v make_v upon_o your_o spirit_n which_o if_o you_o be_v sincere_a you_o will_v not_o only_o feel_v yourselves_o to_o need_v but_o your_o own_o temper_n and_o inclination_n will_v prompt_v you_o to_o it_o account_v you_o can_v never_o be_v under_o bond_n strong_a and_o sure_a enough_o to_o he_o you_o will_v not_o only_o apprehend_v necessity_n but_o will_v relish_v and_o taste_v pleasure_n in_o any_o such_o transaction_n with_o the_o bless_a god_n in_o avouch_v he_o to_o be_v your_o god_n and_o yourself_o to_o be_v he_o the_o more_o solemn_a it_o be_v the_o more_o grateful_a it_o will_v be_v to_o you_o do_v so_o then_o fall_v before_o his_o throne_n prostrate_v yourself_o at_o his_o footstool_n and_o have_v choose_v your_o fit_a season_n when_o nothing_o may_v interrupt_v you_o and_o have_v shut_v up_o yourself_o with_o he_o pour_v out_o your_o soul_n to_o he_o tell_v he_o you_o be_v now_o come_v on_o purpose_n to_o offer_v yourselves_o to_o he_o as_o his_o own_o o_o that_o you_o will_v not_o let_v this_o night_n pass_v without_o do_v so_o tell_v he_o you_o have_v too_o long_o neglect_v he_o and_o forget_v to_o who_o you_o belong_v humble_o beseech_v he_o for_o his_o pardon_n and_o that_o he_o will_v now_o accept_v of_o you_o for_o your_o redeemer_n sake_n as_o be_v through_o his_o grace_n resolve_v never_o to_o live_v so_o great_a a_o stranger_n to_o he_o or_o be_v such_o a_o wanderer_n from_o he_o more_o and_o when_o you_o have_v do_v so_o remember_v the_o time_n let_v it_o be_v with_o you_o a_o note_v memorable_a day_n as_o you_o will_v be_v sure_a to_o keep_v the_o day_n in_o memory_n when_o you_o become_v such_o a_o one_o servant_n or_o tenant_n or_o your_o marriage-day_n renew_v this_o your_o

ever_o they_o be_v devote_v to_o god_n by_o other_o but_o only_o upon_o such_o a_o occasion_n as_o this_o to_o make_v it_o a_o excuse_n that_o they_o may_v never_o do_v such_o a_o thing_n themselves_o and_o consider_v be_v these_o christian_a roman_n on_o who_o the_o apostle_n press_v this_o duty_n never_o baptise_a think_v you_o read_v over_o the_o forego_n part_n of_o the_o chapter_n wherein_o
