before_o i_o come_v to_o they_o let_v i_o have_v but_o one_o word_n with_o you_o about_o burial_n i_o say_v but_o one_o word_n for_o if_o those_o that_o be_v infect_v in_o person_n or_o garment_n be_v

i_o may_v of_o my_o self_n conclude_v that_o we_o be_v not_o to_o throng_v after_o infect_a corpse_n which_o have_v no_o good_a thereby_o without_o some_o reasonable_a cause_n that_o one_o word_n i_o

minister_n clerk_n and_o bearer_n shall_v accompany_v infect_v corpse_n preach_v i_o dare_v not_o presume_v to_o judge_v of_o the_o determination_n of_o authority_n without_o sufficient_a reason_n which_o i_o want_v in_o this_o case_n but_o rather_o i_o be_o persuade_v according_a to_o that_o i_o be_o command_v by_o these_o word_n honour_v thy_o father_n and_o mother_n 12._o to_o indge_v the_o best_a and_o take_v it_o as_o a_o argument_n that_o authority_n care_v more_o for_o the_o live_n then_o for_o the_o dead_a their_o pomp_n so_o dangerous_a in_o these_o time_n and_o not_o necessary_a as_o wise_a man_n think_v but_o my_o own_o opinion_n be_v this_o i_o can_v wish_v the_o friend_n of_o the_o disease_a will_v respect_v the_o preservation_n of_o life_n more_o than_o compliment_n of_o burial_n but_o i_o utter_o mislike_v that_o infect_a person_n shall_v thrust_v into_o the_o throng_n and_o it_o grieve_v i_o to_o hear_v how_o the_o poor_a sort_n yea_o woman_n with_o young_a child_n will_v flock_v to_o burial_n and_o which_o be_v worse_o stand_v of_o purpose_n over_o open_a grave_n where_o sundry_a be_v bury_v together_o that_o forsooth_o all_o the_o world_n may_v see_v that_o they_o fear_v not_o the_o plague_n this_o perverse_a course_n of_o too_o too_o many_o in_o do_v that_o which_o authority_n forbid_v and_o despise_v that_o which_o authority_n command_v to_o wit_n fast_v and_o prayer_n occasion_v i_o to_o observe_v a_o notable_a proportion_n between_o the_o plague_n &_o the_o wickedness_n of_o this_o time_n by_o which_o proportion_n god_n seem_v to_o teach_v man_n to_o say_v in_o their_o heart_n we_o will_v not_o be_v rule_v neither_o by_o reason_n nor_o authority_n therefore_o be_v so_o many_o as_o it_o be_v distract_v in_o their_o sickness_n and_o by_o no_o mean_n to_o be_v rule_v so_o that_o some_o leap_v out_o of_o the_o window_n and_o some_o run_v into_o the_o thames_n as_o the_o rough_a speech_n of_o joseph_n cause_v his_o brethren_n to_o say_v 21._o as_o we_o will_v not_o hear_v joseph_n so_o this_o man_n will_v not_o hear_v us._n i_o rather_o observe_v
the_o ministration_n of_o the_o word_n by_o minister_a to_o the_o poor_a and_o therefore_o put_v over_o that_o duty_n to_o special_a man_n if_o the_o apostle_n extraordinary_o assist_v by_o the_o

need_v all_o help_n as_o much_o read_n diligent_a conference_n and_o frequent_a meditation_n be_v further_o charge_v than_o they_o be_v by_o christ_n indeed_o i_o confess_v that_o a_o minister_n ought_v as_o you_o say_v to_o be_v a_o example_n of_o all_o good_a work_n 4._o especial_o of_o that_o as_o be_v the_o fit_a man_n to_o satisfy_v the_o doubtful_a conscience_n to_o humble_v the_o

able_a to_o do_v good_a than_o other_o but_o not_o as_o he_o be_v minister_n i_o grant_v also_o that_o long_o since_o the_o same_o doctrine_n from_o this_o place_n have_v be_v gather_v which_o you_o now_o apprehend_v so_o as_o upon_o the_o same_o papist_n have_v ground_v their_o bastard_n sacrament_n of_o extreme_a unction_n 17._o which_o take_v away_o the_o curse_a people_n which_o know_v not_o the_o law_n neither_o care_n to_o know_v it_o be_v ever_o addict_v to_o superstitious_a vanity_n must_v needs_o forsooth_o in_o stead_n thereof_o have_v a_o minister_n to_o visit_v their_o sick_a though_o they_o be_v more_o than_o half_a dead_a as_o in_o stead_n of_o dirgy_n and_o trental_n they_o must_v have_v funeral_n sermon_n for_o fashion_n sake_n thus_o the_o holy_a ministry_n and_o most_o glorious_a name_n of_o god_n must_v be_v abuse_v and_o take_v in_o vain_a by_o follow_v the_o vain_a humour_n of_o arrogant_a folly_n which_o never_o care_v for_o minister_n or_o sermon_n as_o all_o aught_o to_o have_v do_v in_o time_n of_o health_n i_o grant_v that_o some_o professor_n for_o all_o this_o plague_n whereby_o humour_n i_o trow_v shall_v be_v mortify_v have_v a_o mind_n that_o funeral_n sermon_n attend_v their_o credit_n so_o strong_a a_o temptation_n be_v the_o pride_n of_o life_n encourage_v by_o custom_n but_o to_o come_v to_o the_o point_n this_o place_n of_o james_n do_v not_o prove_v that_o it_o be_v the_o proper_a duty_n of_o a_o minister_n to_o visit_v the_o sick_a for_o the_o elder_n be_v send_v for_o to_o heal_v the_o sick_a by_o prayer_n and_o oil_n according_a to_o that_o miraculous_a grace_n which_o be_v then_o bestow_v upon_o they_o 13._o for_o confirmation_n of_o the_o word_n so_o that_o i_o be_o of_o your_o mind_n that_o teach_v elder_n be_v here_o understand_v which_o gift_n discontinue_v this_o canon_n be_v annul_v so_o that_o in_o time_n of_o pestilence_n it_o be_v absurd_o conclude_v that_o because_o james_n enjoin_v minister_n to_o go_v to_o heal_v the_o sick_a therefore_o minister_n must_v upon_o every_o call_n adventure_v their_o life_n by_o visit_v the_o sick_a of_o the_o plague_n again_o if_o it_o be_v the_o proper_a duty_n of_o minister_n to_o visit_v the_o sick_a as_o it_o be_v the_o proper_a gift_n of_o elder_n for_o confirmation_n of_o the_o word_n to_o heal_v with_o oil_n than_o none_o must_v visit_v the_o sick_a but_o minister_n 19_o as_o none_o must_v minister_v the_o sacrament_n which_o proper_o belong_v to_o their_o function_n but_o they_o last_o this_o word_n elder_n in_o the_o plural_a number_n put_v i_o in_o mind_n that_o minister_n be_v in_o the_o primitive_a church_n assist_v with_o other_o elder_n 8._o for_o there_o be_v two_o sort_n of_o elder_n who_o look_v to_o the_o manner_n of_o people_n and_o with_o deacon_n who_o look_v to_o the_o poor_a that_o they_o themselves_o may_v attend_v their_o study_n prayer_n preach_v and_o the_o sacrament_n why_o then_o shall_v we_o think_v that_o visit_v the_o sick_a be_v lay_v upon_o they_o as_o a_o duty_n proper_o pertain_v to_o their_o ministry_n but_o rather_o that_o elder_n by_o spiritual_a comfort_n and_o deacon_n by_o outward_a relief_n visit_v the_o sick_a as_o there_o be_v need_v so_o that_o the_o minister_n be_v not_o trouble_v but_o in_o extraordinary_a necessity_n as_o when_o none_o but_o he_o can_v satisfy_v the_o despairful_a conscience_n or_o mind_n doubtful_a in_o a_o fundamental_a error_n of_o one_o likely_a otherwise_o to_o die_v out_o of_o the_o faith_n in_o which_o case_n i_o think_v a_o minister_n ought_v to_o hazard_v his_o life_n my_o reason_n be_v it_o be_v the_o reveil_v will_n of_o god_n that_o he_o must_v save_v a_o lose_a sheep_n 4._o but_o it_o be_v god_n secret_a whether_o he_o shall_v be_v

that_o as_o minister_n be_v exemplary_o but_o not_o as_o minister_n to_o relieve_v the_o poor_a according_a to_o their_o ability_n and_o where_o they_o have_v some_o special_a call_n so_o they_o be_v exemplary_o but_o not_o as_o minister_n to_o visit_v the_o sick_a according_a to_o their_o leisure_n and_o where_o they_o have_v some_o special_a call_n profess_v i_o know_v not_o whether_o i_o shall_v be_v glad_a or_o sad_a for_o draw_v from_o you_o so_o probable_a and_o it_o may_v be_v a_o profitable_a discourse_n but_o i_o will_v suspend_v my_o judgement_n since_o you_o submit_v your_o
