without_o scandal_n but_o he_o know_v he_o have_v not_o live_v without_o error_n but_o as_o god_n have_v assist_v he_o to_o avoid_v the_o reproach_n of_o great_a crime_n so_o he_o doubt_v not_o but_o he_o shall_v find_v pardon_n for_o the_o less_o and_o indeed_o i_o can_v not_o but_o observe_v that_o he_o have_v in_o all_o the_o time_n of_o his_o sickness_n a_o very_a quiet_a conscience_n which_o be_v to_o i_o a_o excellent_a demonstration_n of_o the_o state_n of_o his_o life_n and_o of_o his_o state_n of_o grace_n and_o pardon_n for_o though_o he_o seem_v to_o have_v a_o conscience_n tender_a and_o nice_a if_o any_o evil_a thing_n have_v touch_v it_o yet_o i_o can_v not_o but_o apprehend_v that_o his_o peace_n be_v a_o just_a peace_n the_o mercy_n of_o god_n and_o the_o price_n and_o effect_n of_o the_o blood_n of_o jesus_n he_o be_v so_o joyful_a so_o thankful_a so_o please_v in_o the_o ministery_n of_o the_o church_n that_o it_o give_v in_o evidence_n where_o his_o soul_n be_v most_o delight_v what_o it_o do_v apprehend_v the_o quick_a where_o it_o do_v use_n to_o dwell_v and_o what_o it_o do_v most_o passionate_o love_v he_o discourse_v much_o of_o the_o mercy_n of_o god_n to_o he_o repeat_v the_o blessing_n of_o his_o life_n the_o accident_n and_o instrument_n of_o his_o trouble_n he_o love_v the_o cause_n of_o his_o trouble_n and_o pardon_v they_o that_o neither_o love_v it_o nor_o he_o when_o he_o have_v spend_v great_a portion_n of_o his_o time_n of_o sickness_n in_o the_o service_n of_o god_n and_o in_o expectation_n of_o the_o sentence_n of_o his_o life_n or_o death_n at_o last_o he_o understand_v the_o still_a voice_n of_o god_n and_o that_o he_o be_v to_o go_v where_o his_o soul_n love_v to_o be_v he_o still_o increase_v his_o devotion_n and_o be_v admonish_v as_o his_o strength_n fail_v he_o to_o supply_v his_o usual_a form_n and_o his_o want_n of_o strength_n and_o word_n by_o short_a exercise_n of_o virtue_n of_o faith_n and_o patience_n and_o the_o love_n of_o god_n he_o do_v it_o so_o willing_o so_o well_o so_o ready_o make_v his_o eye_n his_o hand_n and_o his_o tongue_n as_o long_o as_o he_o can_v the_o interpreter_n of_o his_o mind_n that_o as_o long_o as_o he_o be_v alive_a we_o will_v see_v what_o his_o soul_n be_v do_v he_o doubt_v not_o of_o the_o truth_n of_o the_o promise_n nor_o of_o the_o goodness_n of_o god_n nor_o the_o satisfaction_n of_o christ_n and_o the_o merit_n of_o his_o death_n nor_o the_o fruit_n of_o his_o resurrection_n nor_o the_o prevalency_n of_o his_o intercession_n nor_o yet_o doubt_v of_o his_o own_o part_n in_o they_o but_o expect_v his_o portion_n in_o the_o region_n of_o blessedness_n with_o those_o who_o love_v god_n and_o serve_v he_o hearty_o and_o faithful_o in_o their_o generation_n he_o have_v so_o great_a a_o patience_n in_o his_o sickness_n and_o be_v so_o afraid_a lest_o he_o shall_v sin_v at_o last_o that_o his_o piety_n outdo_v his_o nature_n and_o though_o the_o body_n can_v feel_v but_o by_o the_o soul_n yet_o his_o soul_n seem_v so_o little_o concern_v in_o the_o passion_n of_o the_o body_n that_o i_o neither_o observe_v nor_o hear_v of_o he_o that_o he_o in_o all_o his_o sickness_n so_o much_o as_o complain_v with_o any_o semblance_n of_o impatience_n he_o so_o continue_v to_o pray_v so_o delight_v in_o hear_v psalm_n sing_v which_o i_o wish_v be_v make_v as_o fit_a to_o sing_v by_o their_o number_n as_o they_o be_v by_o their_o weight_n that_o so_o very_a much_o of_o his_o time_n be_v spend_v in_o they_o that_o it_o be_v very_o likely_a when_o his_o lord_n come_v he_o will_v find_v he_o so_o do_v and_o he_o do_v so_o for_o in_o the_o midst_n of_o prayer_n he_o go_v away_o and_o get_v to_o heaven_n as_o soon_o as_o they_o and_o see_v they_o as_o we_o hope_v present_v to_o the_o throne_n of_o grace_n he_o go_v along_o with_o they_o himself_o and_o be_v his_o own_o messenger_n to_o heaven_n where_o although_o he_o possible_o may_v prevent_v his_o last_o prayer_n yet_o he_o will_v not_o prevent_v god_n early_a mercy_n which_o as_o we_o humble_o hope_v give_v he_o pardon_v for_o his_o sin_n ease_n of_o his_o pain_n joy_n after_o
