come_v and_o such_o in_o truth_n as_o our_o thought_n can_v apprehend_v for_o it_o be_v very_o true_a which_o esdras_n say_v that_o man_n that_o live_v here_o in_o this_o world_n can_v comprehend_v nothing_o but_o earthly_a thing_n and_o it_o be_v say_v in_o ecclesiast_fw-la that_o we_o must_v not_o search_v into_o thing_n above_o our_o reach_n but_o think_v upon_o that_o which_o god_n have_v command_v we_o for_o it_o be_v not_o fit_a for_o we_o to_o look_v unto_o that_o which_o god_n keep_v secret_a unto_o himself_o from_o us._n now_o the_o blessed_a and_o chief_a pleasure_n of_o our_o soul_n consist_v in_o conform_v &_o address_v all_o her_o do_n to_o that_o end_n whereunto_o she_o be_v create_v which_o be_v do_v by_o action_n prayer_n and_o meditation_n for_o god_n have_v cause_v we_o to_o be_v bear_v to_o be_v member_n here_o of_o this_o vile_a world_n every_o part_n of_o we_o observe_v the_o duty_n &_o motion_n whereunto_o he_o have_v ordain_v the_o same_o serve_v for_o his_o glory_n &_o testimony_n of_o his_o power_n it_o stand_v we_o therefore_o upon_o so_o long_o as_o we_o live_v here_o to_o keep_v well_o our_o part_n and_o beware_v that_o in_o our_o particular_a discord_v we_o break_v not_o the_o universal_a right_a note_n and_o harmony_n wherein_o the_o beauty_n of_o his_o workmanship_n subsi_v for_o he_o have_v call_v every_o of_o we_o unto_o a_o certain_a ministry_n and_o office_n whereof_o he_o have_v make_v some_o king_n some_o prince_n some_o magistrate_n some_o private_a man_n or_o to_o say_v as_o the_o apostle_n say_v he_o have_v ordain_v some_o to_o be_v prophet_n some_o evangelist_n some_o preacher_n and_o some_o doctor_n and_o therefore_o let_v we_o take_v heed_n that_o we_o fulfil_v the_o ministry_n which_o be_v lay_v upon_o us._n for_o if_o so_o be_v we_o deal_v lame_o and_o halt_o in_o the_o charge_n which_o be_v give_v unto_o we_o we_o fail_v not_o only_o in_o our_o own_o duty_n but_o we_o also_o bring_v a_o general_a confusion_n upon_o the_o whole_a people_n and_o so_o become_v culpable_a of_o the_o sin_n of_o all_o the_o multitude_n where_o contrariwise_o if_o so_o be_v we_o deal_v just_o and_o true_o in_o our_o office_n we_o shall_v be_v like_a unto_o good_a and_o skilful_a musician_n who_o over_o and_o beside_o the_o great_a pleasure_n of_o the_o excellent_a and_o sweet_a sound_v of_o their_o voice_n they_o feel_v a_o marvellous_a and_o incredible_a delight_n by_o the_o even_o meet_v of_o one_o another_o voice_n which_o fall_v into_o they_o with_o a_o agreement_n &_o accord_n full_a of_o sweet_a melody_n and_o therefore_o it_o be_v sure_o a_o great_a pleasure_n to_o do_v well_o neither_o be_v there_o any_o pleasure_n so_o great_a as_o the_o contentment_n which_o we_o feel_v in_o our_o conscience_n when_o we_o perform_v any_o godly_a &_o commendable_a action_n neither_o be_v there_o any_o thing_n that_o more_o glad_o tickle_v the_o spirit_n than_o the_o glory_n which_o it_o offer_v &_o promise_v unto_o that_o man_n or_o woman_n who_o virtuous_o behave_v themselves_o in_o their_o life_n &_o conversation_n i_o mean_v not_o such_o glory_n as_o be_v feed_v either_o with_o wind_n or_o smoke_n which_o please_v man_n only_o but_o such_o glory_n as_o make_v we_o see_v a_o far_o off_o the_o crown_n which_o be_v prepare_v for_o us._n neither_o must_v we_o stand_v upon_o the_o outcry_n and_o clap_v of_o the_o hand_n of_o the_o people_n which_o favour_n the_o course_n that_o we_o take_v in_o hand_n no_o more_o than_o a_o valiant_a champion_n ready_o prepare_v in_o the_o list_n to_o fight_v the_o combat_n do_v but_o let_v it_o rather_o hasten_v we_o to_o run_v the_o swift_o unto_o the_o goal_n &_o garland_n of_o prize_n which_o attend_v our_o victory_n and_o lift_v up_o our_o soul_n with_o such_o a_o cogitation_n as_o that_o all_o our_o action_n be_v refer_v to_o this_o end_n may_v be_v full_a of_o that_o joy_n &_o contentment_n wherein_o consist_v our_o whole_a blessedness_n neither_o may_v we_o ne_v yet_o can_v we_o continual_o tie_v ourselves_o unto_o the_o affair_n and_o bus●nesse_n of_o this_o world_n for_o after_o labour_n ensue_v rest_n which_o be_v in_o very_a deed_n the_o

worldly_a affair_n and_o who_o god_n have_v withdraw_v from_o the_o tempest_n and_o storm_n of_o the_o world_n and_o place_v they_o as_o it_o be_v in_o a_o calm_a &_o peaceable_a haven_n to_o behold_v a_o far_o off_o the_o shipwreck_n of_o other_o and_o this_o meditation_n consist_v only_o of_o the_o knowledge_n of_o the_o truth_n and_o glory_n of_o god_n which_o we_o must_v seek_v after_o as_o well_o by_o the_o contemplation_n and_o exact_a consideration_n of_o his_o work_n out_o of_o which_o shine_v forth_o everywhere_o his_o power_n &_o incomparable_a goodness_n as_o by_o the_o ordinary_a
