the_o same_o or_o like_a punishment_n as_o their_o father_n have_v and_o great_a then_o 2._o i_o can_v but_o note_v how_o slow_o and_o unwilling_o god_n come_v to_o judgement_n thus_o much_o those_o

no_o instance_n of_o god_n judgement_n against_o sinner_n no_o threat_n to_o deter_v i_o from_o any_o sin_n or_o the_o like_a i_o find_v there_o be_v and_o can_v but_o stay_v my_o thought_n a_o

to_o look_v into_o myself_o the_o very_a read_n of_o this_o scripture_n ought_v to_o be_v to_o i_o a_o warning_n and_o let_v i_o see_v be_o i_o not_o guilty_a of_o the_o like_a resist_a light_n and_o

now_o if_o any_o such_o as_o this_o be_v my_o case_n let_v my_o meditation_n here_o rest_v a_o while_n let_v i_o consider_v whether_o in_o this_o scripture_n which_o have_v thus_o convince_v i_o of_o

will_v have_v many_o a_o time_n gather_v i_o under_o his_o wing_n and_o do_v not_o these_o very_a warning_n that_o if_o i_o be_o not_o reclaim_v i_o must_v be_v forsake_v speak_v god_n present_a

with_o his_o people_n he_o will_v not_o bear_v always_o be_v that_o they_o do_v persist_v in_o resistance_n of_o his_o grace_n and_o true_o i_o know_v not_o how_o soon_o god_n may_v call_v home_o from_o i_o his_o oppose_a spirit_n and_o suffer_v his_o grace_n no_o long_o to_o be_v abuse_v leave_v i_o as_o he_o do_v the_o jew_n in_o my_o own_o stubbornness_n and_o wilfulness_n to_o perish_v after_o this_o sort_n may_v i_o employ_v a_o while_n my_o thought_n and_o if_o time_n will_v suffer_v thus_o aught_v i_o so_o long_o to_o meditate_v till_o my_o move_a heart_n have_v take_v up_o
