comprehend_v the_o state_n of_o man_n in_o both_o world_n it_o show_v to_o we_o what_o that_o life_n be_v in_o this_o world_n which_o lead_v to_o misery_n in_o the_o next_o and_o what_o to_o happiness_n no_o sensual_a man_n no_o voluptuous_a person_n not_o those_o that_o deck_n themselves_o with_o delicate_a apparel_n and_o fare_v sumptuous_o every_o day_n that_o love_v their_o back_n and_o their_o belly_n more_o than_o god_n and_o the_o poor_a shall_v be_v receive_v into_o abraham_n bosom_n or_o dwell_v in_o blessedness_n forever_o let_v none_o deceive_v themselves_o the_o jealous_a god_n will_v not_o be_v mock_v if_o you_o sow_v to_o the_o flesh_n you_o shall_v reap_v corruption_n but_o if_o you_o sow_v to_o the_o spirit_n you_o shall_v reap_v life_n everlasting_a they_o that_o live_v in_o pleasure_n kill_v the_o just_a they_o crucify_v the_o just_a witness_n in_o themselves_o such_o treasure_n up_o wrath_n against_o the_o day_n of_o wrath._n woe_n anguish_n and_o tribulation_n to_o every_o soul_n that_o do_v evil_a whether_o jew_n or_o gentile_n professor_n or_o profane_a christian_n or_o infidel_n for_o the_o dives_n under_o all_o these_o name_n must_v

shall_v receive_v glory_n honour_n and_o eternal_a life_n and_o true_o it_o be_v some_o comfort_n to_o the_o miserable_a in_o this_o world_n that_o they_o shall_v not_o live_v always_o in_o it_o and_o that_o they_o have_v to_o do_v with_o a_o god_n who_o be_v no_o respecter_n of_o person_n this_o judge_n be_v impartial_a the_o poor_a be_v upon_o even_o term_n with_o the_o rich_a and_o it_o will_v not_o be_v quality_n but_o integrity_n not_o riches_n but_o righteousness_n which_o will_v recommend_v we_o to_o he_o no_o wonder_n then_o if_o the_o prophet_n jeremiah_n in_o the_o name_n of_o god_n charge_v the_o ancient_a jew_n not_o to_o go_v into_o the_o house_n of_o feast_v and_o that_o ecclesiastes_n shall_v say_v that_o it_o be_v better_a to_o go_v to_o the_o house_n of_o mourn_v than_o to_o the_o house_n of_o feast_v since_o so_o many_o evil_n follow_v it_o but_o there_o be_v one_o feast_n that_o even_o christ_n himself_o allow_v we_o though_o i_o have_v little_a reason_n to_o believe_v it_o will_v be_v imitate_v when_o i_o consider_v the_o natural_a averseness_n that_o be_v even_o among_o profess_a christian_n to_o his_o self-denying_a precept_n and_o example_n then_o say_v jesus_n when_o thou_o make_v 14._o a_o dinner_n or_o a_o supper_n call_v not_o thy_o friend_n or_o thy_o brethren_n neither_o thy_o kinsman_n nor_o thy_o rich_a neighbour_n lest_o they_o also_o

call_v the_o poor_a the_o maim_a the_o lame_a the_o blind_a and_o thou_o shall_v be_v bless_v for_o they_o can_v recompense_v thou_o but_o thou_o shall_v be_v recompense_v at_o the_o resurrection_n of_o the_o just_a there_o be_v few_o that_o strive_v to_o obey_v this_o counsel_n there_o be_v so_o little_a of_o fashion_n or_o of_o interest_n in_o it_o what!_o person_n of_o quality_n feast_v the_o poor_a carve_v for_o the_o maim_a and_o feed_v the_o blind_a it_o be_v too_o mean_a too_o ignominious_a if_o they_o have_v the_o bone_n the_o scrap_n the_o crumb_n it_o be_v well_o no_o no_o this_o doctrine_n be_v too_o like_o he_o that_o teach_v it_o to_o be_v practise_v by_o they_o that_o be_v so_o unlike_o he_o they_o that_o follow_v he_o in_o these_o thing_n must_v take_v up_o the_o cross_n despise_v the_o shame_n and_o sow_n in_o hope_n but_o because_o there_o be_v a_o everlasting_a recompense_n for_o those_o that_o do_v i_o fervent_o desire_v of_o god_n that_o it_o will_v please_v he_o to_o put_v it_o into_o the_o mind_n of_o both_o magistrate_n and_o people_n to_o love_n mercy_n do_v justice_n walk_v humble_o with_o the_o lord_n and_o meek_o and_o charitable_o towards_o all_o man_n i_o beseech_v you_o in_o the_o tender_a bowel_n of_o a_o christian_a man_n to_o consider_v of_o the_o present_a conjuncture_n be_v this_o a_o time_n for_o feast_n and_o reveil_n play_n and_o pastime_n when_o the_o very_a wrath_n of_o god_n seem_v to_o hang_v by_o a_o slender_a thread_n over_o our_o head_n o_o let_v your_o moderation_n be_v know_v unto_o all_o man_n now_o the_o lord_n be_v so_o near_o at_o hand_n and_o i_o do_v humble_o pray_v the_o supreme_a authority_n of_o this_o land_n to_o put_v a_o speedy_a check_n to_o these_o exorbitance_n to_o discountenance_v these_o excess_n by_o the_o revival_n of_o those_o old_a law_n and_o in_o make_v of_o such_o new_a one_o as_o may_v be_v think_v convenient_a to_o prevent_v such_o pride_n and_o prodigality_n for_o i_o think_v i_o may_v both_o with_o modesty_n and_o truth_n affirm_v if_o the_o very_a unnecessary_a expense_n of_o most_o rank_n or_o degree_n in_o this_o kingdom_n can_v be_v bring_v into_o one_o public_a purse_n they_o will_v arise_v to_o three_o time_n more_o money_n than_o either_o be_v give_v or_o be_v requisite_a to_o the_o maintenance_n of_o the_o poor_a that_o be_v in_o it_o and_o whether_o this_o be_v a_o thing_n practicable_a or_o no_o it_o matter_n not_o the_o very_a prevent_v of_o that_o excess_n which_o be_v among_o we_o will_v be_v please_v to_o almighty_a god_n and_o one_o way_n or_o other_o beneficial_a to_o the_o government_n it_o may_v not_o be_v improper_a for_o i_o here_o to_o add_v by_o way_n of_o appendix_n to_o this_o head_n of_o excess_n the_o sin_n of_o game_n a_o invention_n of_o much_o mischief_n in_o the_o world_n &_o therefore_o inconsistent_a both_o with_o christianity_n and_o civil_a government_n the_o evil_n that_o attend_v it_o be_v neither_o small_a nor_o few_o it_o be_v first_o a_o great_a enemy_n to_o business_n and_o that_o just_a care_n that_o people_n ought_v to_o have_v for_o the_o discharge_v of_o their_o respective_a capacity_n in_o their_o civil_a affair_n next_o it_o be_v one_o of_o the_o great_a thief_n to_o man_n estate_n many_o brave_a family_n have_v be_v ruin_v by_o a_o gamester_n that_o which_o have_v be_v get_v by_o the_o care_n and_o prudence_n of_o a_o father_n it_o may_v be_v have_v be_v lose_v in_o one_o night_n by_o the_o extravagant_a humour_n of_o a_o son_n but_o that_o the_o reward_n of_o virtue_n shall_v be_v the_o stake_n of_o folly_n and_o the_o acquest_n of_o worthy_a ancestor_n expose_v to_o the_o chance_n and_o hazard_v of_o the_o die_n be_v such_o impiety_n to_o god_n providence_n ingratitude_n to_o parent_n injury_n to_o their_o own_o family_n and_o disgrace_n to_o the_o government_n that_o i_o conceive_v it_o may_v very_o well_o deserve_v the_o care_n of_o our_o superior_n to_o prevent_v that_o extravagancy_n for_o the_o future_a three_o it_o be_v a_o great_a consumer_n of_o time_n they_o who_o be_v addict_v to_o game_n be_v the_o most_o idle_a and_o useless_a people_n in_o the_o government_n and_o give_v i_o leave_v to_o say_v that_o man_n be_v accountable_a to_o the_o government_n for_o their_o time_n there_o ought_v to_o be_v no_o idleness_n in_o the_o land_n for_o that_o end_v bridewell_n be_v provide_v of_o many_o other_o sin_v people_n be_v weary_a but_o of_o this_o never_o unless_o to_o sleep_n or_o eat_v or_o for_o want_n of_o money_n to_o play_n we_o be_v command_v to_o redeem_v the_o time_n bècause_fw-mi the_o day_n be_v evil_a but_o these_o people_n choose_v rather_o to_o lose_v their_o time_n and_o fall_v into_o the_o evil_a they_o shall_v avoid_v a_o gamester_n and_o a_o christian_a be_v as_o opposite_a as_o a_o saint_n and_o a_o sinner_n for_o the_o christian_a look_n to_o god_n in_o the_o increase_n of_o his_o estate_n the_o gamester_n to_o
