cast_v he_o down_o to_o hell_n &_o perpetualy_a condemn_v he_o when_o therefore_o the_o temptor_n shall_v lasche_v at_o we_o which_o like_a temptation_n we_o may_v not_o shrink_v we_o may_v not_o be_v

ever_o lastinge_a damnation_n he_o be_v become_v our_o innocency_n our_o life_n and_o our_o justice_n let_v we_o take_v heed_n in_o any_o way_n that_o we_o turn_v not_o our_o heart_n from_o christ_n crucify_v if_o we_o cleve_v to_o he_o we_o be_v set_v upon_o a_o sure_a and_o inexpugnable_a rock_n against_o the_o which_o all_o the_o power_n of_o hell_n be_v able_a to_o do_v nothing_o so_o that_o we_o may_v bold_o exclaim_v and_o every_o one_o say_v with_o christ_n i_o provide_v the_o lord_n afore_o my_o eye_n all_o way_n xuj_o psal_n xuj_o for_o he_o be_v at_o my_o right_a elbow_n that_o i_o

become_v the_o son_n of_o god_n the_o brother_n and_o coheire_n of_o christ_n and_o partaker_n of_o everlasting_a life_n by_o this_o faith_n depart_v hence_o we_o shall_v go_v to_o the_o kingdom_n preparyd_v for_o the_o elect_v afore_o the_o beginning_a of_o the_o world_n and_o if_o in_o the_o feruentnes_n of_o these_o temptation_n our_o faith_n begin_v to_o waver_v if_o we_o do_v not_o bear_v patient_o the_o will_n of_o our_o hevinlye_o father_n if_o our_o love_n toward_o god_n wax_v faint_a and_o cold_a if_o our_o hope_n begin_v to_o be_v feeble_a &_o weak_a and_o therefore_o we_o begin_v

can_v trouble_v the_o conscience_n of_o a_o sinner_n more_o than_o when_o he_o doubt_v of_o the_o mercy_n of_o god_n then_o when_o he_o fearethe_v jest_n god_n will_v cast_v he_o of_o then_o when_o he_o can_v not_o persuade_v himself_o to_o conceive_v any_o trust_n of_o god_n mercy_n but_o imagine_v that_o as_o a_o witheryd_a member_n he_o shall_v be_v cut_v of_o and_o cast_v away_o here_o we_o have_v need_n of_o christ_n present_a help_n here_o we_o have_v need_n of_o speedy_a comfort_n lest_o this_o violent_a tempest_n overwhelm_v and_o drown_v us._n but_o let_v we_o not_o fear_n christ_n
