grievous_a not_o a_o few_o but_o infinite_a not_o past_a but_o present_a not_o secret_a but_o presumptuous_a against_o thy_o express_a word_n &_o will_n against_o our_o own_o conscience_n knowledge_n and_o like_n if_o any_o have_v do_v they_o but_o ourselves_o o_o lord_n if_o thou_o shall_v require_v but_o the_o least_o of_o they_o at_o our_o hand_n satan_n will_v challenge_v we_o for_o his_o &_o we_o shall_v never_o see_v thy_o face_n again_o nor_o the_o heaven_n nor_o the_o earth_n nor_o all_o the_o goodness_n which_o thou_o have_v prepare_v for_o man_n what_o shall_v we_o do_v then_o but_o appeal_v unto_o thy_o mercy_n and_o humble_o desire_v thy_o fatherly_a goodness_n to_o extend_v that_o compassion_n towards_o we_o which_o thy_o belove_a son_n our_o love_a saviour_n have_v purchase_v so_o mighty_o so_o gracious_o and_o so_o dear_o for_o we_o we_o believe_v and_o know_v that_o one_o drop_n of_o his_o blood_n be_v sufficient_a to_o heal_v our_o infirmity_n pardon_v our_o iniquity_n and_o supply_v our_o necessity_n but_o without_o thy_o grace_n our_o light_n our_o strength_n our_o guide_n we_o be_v able_a to_o do_v nothing_o but_o sin_n as_o woeful_a experience_n have_v teach_v

therefore_o good_a father_n as_o rhou_fw-mi in_o special_a favour_n have_v appoint_v we_o to_o serve_v thou_o like_a as_o thou_o have_v ordain_v all_o other_o creature_n to_o serve_v we_o so_o may_v it_o please_v thou_o to_o send_v down_o thy_o heavenly_a spirit_n into_o this_o earthly_a mansion_n to_o illuminate_v our_o mind_n mollify_v our_o heart_n change_v our_o affection_n subdue_v our_o

come_v to_o judgement_n what_o shall_v become_v of_o they_o that_o have_v try_v they_o most_o be_v condemn_v most_o rejoice_v o_o young_a man_n in_o thy_o youth_n but_o if_o thou_o mark_v solomon_n he_o harp_v upon_o one_o string_n he_o double_v it_o again_o and_o again_o to_o show_v we_o thing_n of_o his_o own_o experience_n because_o we_o be_v so_o forgetful_a thereof_o in_o ourselves_o like_o the_o dreamer_n that_o forget_v his_o dream_n and_o the_o swearer_n his_o swear_n so_o we_o beg_v of_o every_o unclean_a spirit_n until_o we_o have_v bombast_v ourselves_o up_o to_o the_o throat_n fill_v every_o corner_n of_o our_o heart_n with_o all_o uncleanness_n and_o then_o we_o be_v like_o the_o dog_n that_o come_v out_o of_o the_o sink_n and_o make_v every_o one_o as_o foul_a as_o himself_o therefore_o say_v solomon_n if_o any_o one_o will_v learn_v the_o way_n to_o hell_n let_v he_o take_v his_o pleasure_n methinke_v i_o see_v the_o dialogue_n between_o the_o flesh_n and_o the_o spirit_n the_o worst_a speak_v first_o and_o the_o flesh_n say_v soul_n take_v thy_o ease_n eat_v drink_n and_o go_v brave_a lie_v soft_a what_o else_o shall_v you_o do_v but_o take_v your_o pleasure_n thou_o know_v what_o a_o pleasant_a fellow_n i_o have_v be_v unto_o thou_o thou_o know_v what_o delight_n thou_o have_v have_v by_o my_o mean_n but_o the_o soul_n come_v in_o burden_v with_o that_o which_o have_v be_v speak_v before_o and_o say_v i_o pray_v thou_o remember_v judgement_n thou_o must_v give_v account_n for_o all_o these_o thing_n for_o unless_o you_o repent_v you_o shall_v sure_o perish_v no_o say_v the_o flesh_n talk_v not_o of_o such_o grave_a matter_n but_o tell_v i_o of_o fine_a matter_n of_o soft_a bed_n and_o pleasant_a thing_n and_o talk_v i_o of_o brave_a pastime_n ape_n bear_n and_o puppet_n for_o i_o tell_v thou_o the_o forbid_a fruit_n be_v sweet_a of_o all_o fruit_n for_o i_o do_v not_o like_v of_o your_o tell_v i_o of_o judgement_n but_o take_v thou_o thy_o jewel_n thy_o instrument_n and_o all_o the_o string_n of_o vanity_n will_v strike_v at_o once_o for_o the_o flesh_n love_v to_o be_v brave_a and_o tread_v upon_o cork_n it_o can_v tell_v what_o fashion_n to_o be_v of_o and_o yet_o to_o be_v of_o the_o new_a fashion_n rejoice_v o_o young_a man_n in_o thy_o youth_n o_o this_o go_v brave_a for_o while_o wickedness_n have_v cast_v his_o rub_n and_o vengeance_n cast_v his_o spur_n and_o his_o foot_n and_o thus_o she_o reel_v and_o now_o she_o tumble_v and_o then_o she_o fall_v therefore_o this_o progress_n be_v end_v pleasure_n be_v but_o a_o spur_n riches_n but_o a_o thorn_n glory_n but_o a_o blast_n beauty_n but_o a_o flower_n sin_n be_v but_o a_o hypocrite_n honey_n in_o thy_o mouth_n and_o poison_n in_o thy_o stomach_n therefore_o let_v we_o come_v again_o and_o ask_v of_o solomon_n in_o good_a sooth_n whether_o he_o mean_v in_o good_a earnest_n when_o he_o speak_v these_o word_n o_o say_v solomon_n it_o be_v the_o best_a life_n in_o the_o world_n to_o go_v brave_a lie_v soft_a and_o live_v mere_o if_o therewere_v no_o judgement_n but_o this_o judgement_n mar_v all_o it_o be_v like_o a_o damp_n that_o put_v out_o all_o the_o light_n and_o like_o a_o box_n that_o mar_v all_o the_o ointment_n for_o if_o this_o be_v true_a we_o have_v spin_a a_o fair_a thread_n that_o we_o must_v answer_v for_o all_o that_o be_v not_o able_a to_o answer_v for_o one_o why_o solomon_n make_v we_o fool_n and_o give_v we_o gaud_n to_o play_v withal_o what_o then_o shall_v we_o not_o rejoice_v at_o all_o yes_o there_o be_v a_o godly_a mirth_n and_o if_o we_o can_v hit_v on_o it_o which_o be_v call_v be_v merry_a and_o wise_a sara_n laugh_v and_o be_v reproove_v abraham_n laugh_v and_o be_v not_o reproove_v and_o thus_o much_o for_o the_o first_o part_n but_o remember_v that_o for_o all_o these_o thing_n thou_o shall_v come_v to_o judgement_n this_o verse_n be_v as_o it_o be_v a_o dialogue_n betwixt_o the_o flesh_n and_o the_o spirit_n as_o the_o two_o counsellor_n the_o worst_a be_v first_o and_o the_o flesh_n speak_v proud_o but_o the_o spirit_n come_v in_o burden_a with_o that_o which_o have_v beenespoken_v the_o flesh_n go_v laugh_v and_o sing_v to_o hell_n but_o the_o spirit_n cast_v rub_n in_o his_o way_n &_o put_v he_o in_o mind_n of_o judgement_n that_o for_o all_o these_o thing_n now_o end_n rejoice_v and_o here_o come_v in_o but_o if_o this_o but_o be_v not_o we_o may_v rejoice_v still_o if_o young_a man_n must_v for_o all_o the_o sport_n of_o youth_n what_o then_o shall_v old_a man_n do_v be_v as_o they_o be_v now_o sure_o if_o solomon_n live_v to_o see_v our_o old_a man_n live_v now_o as_o here_o he_o say_v of_o young_a man_n so_o high_a as_o sin_n rage_v yet_o vengeance_n fit_v above_o it_o as_o high_a as_o high_a babel_n i_o think_v i_o see_v a_o sword_n hang_v in_o the_o air_n by_o a_o twine_n thread_n and_o all_o the_o son_n of_o man_n labour_v to_o burst_v it_o in_o sunder_o there_o be_v a_o place_n in_o hell_n where_o the_o covetous_a judge_n sit_v the_o greedy_a lawyer_n the_o gripe_a landlord_n the_o careless_a bishop_n the_o lusty_a youth_n the_o wanton_a dame_n the_o thief_n the_o robber_n of_o the_o commonwealth_n they_o be_v punish_v in_o this_o life_n because_o they_o ever_o sin_v as_o long_o as_o they_o can_v while_o mercy_n be_v offer_v unto_o they_o therefore_o because_o they_o will_v not_o be_v wash_v they_o shall_v be_v drown_v now_o put_v together_o rejoice_v and_o remember_v thou_o have_v learned_a to_o be_v merry_a now_o learn_v to_o be_v wise_a now_o therefore_o turn_v over_o a_o new_a leaf_n and_o take_v a_o new_a lesson_n for_o now_o solomon_n mock_v not_o as_o he_o do_v before_o therefore_o a_o check_n to_o thy_o ruff_n a_o check_n to_o thy_o cuff_n a_o check_n to_o thy_o robe_n a_o check_n to_o thy_o gold_n a_o check_n to_o your_o riches_n a_o check_n to_o your_o beauty_n a_o check_n to_o your_o muck_n a_o check_n to_o your_o grave_n woe_n from_o above_o woe_n from_o below_o woe_n to_o all_o the_o string_n of_o vanity_n do_v thou_o not_o now_o marvel_v that_o thou_o have_v not_o a_o feel_n of_o sin_n for_o now_o thou_o see_v solomon_n say_v true_a thy_o own_o heart_n can_v tell_v that_o it_o be_v wicked_a but_o it_o can_v amend_v therefore_o it_o be_v high_a time_n to_o amend_v as_o nathan_n come_v to_o david_n after_o belzebub_n so_o come_v accuse_v conscience_n after_o sin_n i_o think_v that_o every_o one_o shall_v have_v a_o feel_n of_o sin_n though_o this_o day_n be_v like_o yesterday_o and_o to_o morrow_n like_v to_o day_n yet_o one_o day_n will_v come_v for_o all_o and_o then_o woe_n wo_n wo_n and_o nothing_o but_o darkness_n and_o though_o god_n come_v not_o to_o adam_n until_o the_o

though_o he_o have_v leaden_a foot_n he_o have_v iron_n hand_n the_o arrow_n stay_v and_o be_v not_o yet_o fall_v so_o be_v his_o wrath_n the_o pit_n be_v dig_v the_o fire_n kindle_v and_o all_o
