who_o be_v sensible_a of_o his_o withdraw_n from_o god_n so_o also_o to_o discover_v in_o the_o three_o place_n the_o sweet_a entertainment_n that_o the_o soul_n find_v with_o god_n when_o he_o be_v

insupportable_a burden_n and_o the_o reason_n be_v these_o a_o saint_n see_v that_o sin_n have_v bring_v he_o into_o a_o condition_n so_o bad_a and_o so_o low_a that_o himself_o with_o all_o the_o

to_o uphold_v his_o heart_n and_o enable_v he_o to_o bear_v his_o burden_n without_o go_v to_o christ_n but_o sin_n be_v so_o large_a and_o so_o broad_a and_o so_o full_a of_o weight_n that_o it_o sink_v all_o thing_n under_o on_o this_o side_n of_o heaven_n which_o go_v to_o bear_v it_o and_o this_o a_o saint_n see_v and_o therefore_o sin_n to_o his_o heart_n be_v a_o unsupportable_a burden_n second_o sin_n take_v away_o the_o ground_n of_o patience_n and_o therefore_o unbearable_a and_o that_o it_o do_v why_o because_o though_o there_o be_v promise_n to_o bear_v all_o oppression_n yet_o no_o promise_n to_o bear_v the_o practice_n of_o sin_n therefore_o my_o former_a thus_o that_o condition_n which_o be_v without_o promise_n be_v unbearable_a but_o the_o practice_n of_o sin_n as_o
