you_o roll_n in_o your_o thought_n the_o aggravation_n of_o god_n goodness_n and_o mercy_n and_o can_v that_o make_v you_o weep_v the_o end_n why_o god_n bring_v jacob_n into_o this_o condition_n to_o

as_o we_o intimate_v before_o that_o god_n do_v for_o jacob_n that_o ever_o he_o do_v to_o man_n therefore_o god_n will_v bring_v he_o very_o low_a before_o he_o will_v raise_v he_o so_o high_a and_o make_v he_o fall_v a_o weep_n aswell_o as_o pray_v before_o he_o shall_v have_v the_o mercy_n oh_o this_o be_v god_n way_n he_o will_v bring_v man_n very_o low_a to_o humble_v they_o before_o they_o shall_v have_v mercy_n therefore_o when_o man_n heart_n be_v high_a and_o lofty_a stout_a and_o hard_a they_o be_v not_o in_o a_o way_n of_o mercy_n from_o god_n but_o when_o man_n heart_n begin_v to_o break_v thaw_n and_o melt_v and_o be_v tender_a than_o they_o be_v in_o a_o way_n of_o mercy_n as_o here_o so_o we_o find_v it_o often_o in_o scripture_n that_o god_n intend_v mercy_n first_o break_v the_o heart_n and_o melt_v it_o by_o mourning_n and_o sorrow_v as_o josiah_n you_o know_v that_o be_v his_o condition_n his_o heart_n melt_v when_o he_o hear_v the_o law_n and_o god_n send_v

shall_v be_v the_o way_n one_o note_n or_o two_o more_o it_o become_v the_o most_o generous_a and_o magnanimous_a spirit_n to_o have_v his_o heart_n break_v and_o to_o express_v note_n his_o heart_n break_v with_o tear_n before_o god_n it_o be_v a_o excellent_a thing_n to_o see_v a_o man_n of_o a_o brave_a spirit_n strong_a and_o full_o of_o courage_n in_o any_o service_n of_o god_n and_o yet_o when_o he_o come_v to_o have_v to_o deal_v with_o god_n to_o have_v a_o melt_a tender_a and_o soft_a spirit_n in_o his_o deal_n with_o god_n if_o you_o shall_v see_v now_o a_o great_a captain_n or_o

according_a to_o what_o god_n call_v they_o to_o this_o way_n or_o that_o way_n can_v be_v stout_a and_o hardy_a in_o a_o work_n that_o require_v stoutness_n and_o can_v be_v soft_a tender_a and_o

to_o prayer_n but_o to_o weep_v before_o the_o lord_n some_o man_n think_v it_o be_v too_o low_a a_o thing_n to_o fall_v a_o weep_n in_o prayer_n as_o if_o it_o be_v a_o womanish_a and_o a_o

that_o weep_v be_v not_o beneath_o a_o spirit_n brave_a spirit_n this_o be_v enough_o and_o also_o that_o of_o david_n no_o man_n do_v shed_v more_o tear_n in_o the_o presence_n of_o god_n than_o

do_v it_o become_v the_o captain_n of_o our_o salvation_n in_o his_o seek_n of_o god_n to_o weep_v know_v then_o it_o be_v not_o unbecoming_a any_o man_n or_o woman_n be_v you_o of_o the_o seed_n of_o

it_o will_v help_v to_o break_v thy_o heart_n as_o a_o break_a heart_n will_v cause_v outward_a expression_n so_o outward_a expression_n will_v be_v a_o further_a cause_n to_o break_v the_o heart_n

be_v cry_v to_o god_n to_o cry_v even_o with_o tear_n before_o he_o and_o when_o thy_o heart_n be_v so_o break_a with_o tear_n then_o exercise_v thy_o faith_n upon_o the_o prayer_n of_o jesus_n

upon_o my_o enlargement_n
thus_o do_v help_v we_o to_o see_v god_n in_o his_o glory_n as_o much_o as_o any_o way_n god_n whatsoever_o and_o few_o people_n apprehend_v this_o but_o look_v upon_o god_n as_o a_o creature_n and_o so_o they_o think_v god_n be_v some_o excellent_a thing_n that_o have_v so_o many_o excellency_n in_o he_o but_o to_o understand_v that_o all_o that_o be_v say_v of_o god_n be_v god_n himself_o and_o therefore_o it_o be_v all_o but_o one_o be_v in_o god_n it_o do_v appear_v divers_a to_o we_o wisdom_n mercy_n justice_n power_n life_n holiness_n and_o faithfulness_n appear_v many_o thing_n to_o
