daniel_n fast_o 10.12_o fast_o dan._n 10.12_o when_o thou_o do_v set_v thy_o heart_n to_o chasten_v thyself_o before_o thy_o god_n and_o david_n say_v of_o his_o own_o fast_n 35.13_o fast_n psal_n 35.13_o i_o humble_v or_o afflict_a my_o soul_n with_o fast_v and_o the_o people_n of_o the_o jew_n 58.3_o jew_n be_v 58.3_o wherefore_o say_v they_o have_v we_o fast_v and_o thou_o see_v not_o wherefore_o have_v we_o afflict_v our_o soul_n and_o thou_o take_v no_o knowledge_n but_o most_o plain_a to_o this_o purpose_n be_v that_o of_o ezrah_n 8.21_o ezrah_n esr_n 8.21_o i_o proclaim_v a_o fast_a say_v he_o that_o we_o may_v afflict_v ourselves_o before_o our_o god_n where_o we_o may_v note_v that_o the_o afflict_v of_o ourselves_o be_v the_o very_a end_n of_o our_o fast_n thus_o in_o the_o language_n of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n fast_v do_v imply_v a_o kind_n of_o afflict_v and_o indeed_o if_o it_o be_v right_o use_v it_o may_v be_v say_v to_o afflict_v a_o man_n for_o three_o respect_n first_o because_o it_o do_v natural_o breed_v a_o kind_n of_o pain_n to_o the_o body_n for_o when_o nature_n want_v her_o ordinary_a nourishment_n she_o feed_v upon_o the_o body_n itself_o and_o suck_v and_o draw_v from_o it_o its_o natural_a moisture_n and_o consume_v the_o ivyce_n of_o it_o which_o action_n of_o nature_n upon_o itself_o if_o it_o be_v long_a and_o great_a do_v breed_v unsufferable_a pain_n which_o make_v man_n to_o eat_v their_o own_o flesh_n rather_o than_o endure_v it_o and_o if_o it_o be_v but_o moderate_a yet_o if_o it_o be_v continue_v above_o the_o ordinary_a and_o fit_a time_n of_o refresh_v it_o will_v more_o or_o less_o breed_v some_o sense_n of_o pain_n second_o fast_v may_v be_v say_v to_o afflict_v because_o it_o deprive_v a_o man_n of_o his_o usual_a and_o accustom_a refresh_v and_o comfort_n and_o that_o without_o any_o real_a and_o positive_a pain_n be_v a_o kind_n of_o affliction_n to_o nature_n for_o if_o a_o man_n that_o have_v be_v in_o place_n of_o authority_n and_o respect_n be_v only_o deprive_v of_o this_o honour_n and_o dignity_n that_o privation_n alone_o will_v be_v a_o corrasive_n to_o his_o soul_n and_o if_o a_o man_n that_o have_v be_v accustom_v to_o live_v at_o his_o liberty_n be_v command_v to_o keep_v his_o house_n though_o he_o lodge_v as_o soft_a and_o fare_v as_o well_o and_o be_v attend_v as_o careful_o as_o ever_o he_o be_v wont_a yet_o this_o restraint_n in_o his_o own_o house_n will_v be_v a_o punishment_n unto_o he_o because_o it_o be_v a_o abridge_n of_o his_o wont_a liberty_n and_o so_o abstinence_n from_o meat_n at_o the_o usual_a time_n be_v a_o affliction_n to_o nature_n because_o she_o miss_v her_o wont_a comfort_n and_o refresh_n three_o fast_v may_v further_o be_v say_v to_o afflict_v because_o it_o be_v a_o memorial_n that_o represent_v unto_o we_o the_o just_a cause_n of_o the_o great_a sorrow_n for_o as_o when_o a_o wife_n wear_v mourn_a weed_n for_o her_o husband_n death_n if_o any_o other_o occasion_n shall_v draw_v she_o to_o sport_v and_o mirth_n yet_o the_o sight_n of_o she_o own_o clothes_n will_v recall_n she_o because_o they_o be_v testimony_n that_o put_v she_o in_o mind_n of_o her_o husband_n decease_n and_o her_o own_o widowhood_n so_o out_o fast_v be_v undertake_v for_o humiliation_n and_o repentance_n be_v a_o outward_a token_n that_o call_v our_o sin_n to_o remembrance_n that_o tell_v we_o how_o unworthy_a we_o be_v of_o the_o least_o of_o god_n mercy_n and_o how_o obnoxious_a to_o damnation_n if_o by_o repentance_n we_o do_v not_o obtain_v pardon_n in_o which_o case_n though_o we_o shall_v otherwise_o forget_v ourselves_o yet_o the_o very_a want_n of_o our_o wont_a food_n will_v cause_v a_o sight_n and_o breed_v a_o sense_n of_o our_o woeful_a estate_n and_o this_o be_v think_v to_o be_v one_o reason_n why_o the_o ninevite_n cause_v their_o child_n and_o cattle_n to_o fast_o from_o all_o food_n who_o notwithstanding_o be_v neither_o guilty_a of_o the_o sin_n nor_o capable_a of_o repentance_n because_o the_o rueful_a sight_n of_o their_o misery_n and_o the_o mourn_a sound_n of_o their_o cry_n may_v serve_v to_o increase_v the_o ninevite_n sorrow_n who_o sin_n have_v be_v the_o cause_n of_o all_o thus_o fast_v be_v in_o diverse_a respect_n a_o kind_n of_o affliction_n and_o in_o the_o religious_a use_n of_o it_o be_v intend_v by_o almighty_a god_n for_o that_o purpose_n 2._o the_o second_o thing_n be_v that_o this_o chasten_n must_v be_v moderate_a and_o not_o exceed_v the_o proportion_n of_o every_o man_n strength_n and_o ability_n and_o then_o it_o exceed_v this_o proportion_n when_o it_o either_o destroy_v nature_n or_o disable_v a_o man_n for_o god_n service_n and_o the_o duty_n of_o his_o call_n and_o thus_o far_o if_o a_o man_n go_v he_o go_v beyond_o the_o rule_n of_o a_o religious_a fast_o the_o reason_n be_v first_o god_n do_v not_o desire_v the_o hurt_n of_o his_o creature_n while_o he_o be_v about_o his_o service_n nay_o he_o will_v rather_o forbear_v some_o part_n of_o his_o service_n than_o a_o ox_n or_o a_o ass_n shall_v want_v necessary_a food_n as_o be_v evident_a

he_o have_v a_o man_n to_o endanger_v his_o life_n or_o health_n for_o such_o a_o exercise_n though_o tend_v to_o his_o service_n and_o therefore_o if_o any_o deny_v necessary_a refresh_n to_o the_o

christian_n who_o conceit_n all_o such_o austerity_n to_o be_v monkish_a &_o superstitious_a &_o ungodly_a 2._o that_o all_o even_o the_o best_a of_o we_o if_o we_o do_v not_o think_v ourselves_o more_o spiritual_a than_o saint_n paul_n must_v confess_v and_o resolve_v that_o we_o have_v need_v to_o pull_v down_o by_o deed_n of_o humiliation_n the_o luxuriant_a pride_n of_o the_o flesh_n and_o that_o it_o be_v a_o rule_n derive_v from_o the_o nature_n of_o man_n that_o mens_fw-la repleta_fw-la spinas_fw-la germinat_fw-la libidinum_fw-la a_o full_a feed_v soul_n sprout_n forth_o weed_n of_o

a_o holy_a rest_n a_o public_a meeting_n a_o affliction_n of_o the_o soul_n and_o a_o offer_v make_v by_o fire_n and_o hence_o we_o may_v gather_v that_o a_o holy_a day_n and_o a_o fast_a day_n be_v

but_o it_o be_v not_o say_v that_o it_o be_v to_o be_v keep_v holy_a because_o it_o be_v a_o fast_a day_n and_o hence_o i_o may_v conclude_v that_o the_o text_n do_v give_v no_o warrant_n that_o
