such_o a_o sin_n and_o i_o may_v fall_v again_o now_o where_o this_o full_a point_n lie_v that_o a_o man_n may_v be_v able_a to_o speak_v it_o thus_o much_o i_o must_v and_o have_v grieve_v and_o be_o now_o come_v to_o the_o height_n of_o sorrow_n that_o be_v require_v and_o now_o i_o know_v i_o shall_v never_o fall_v the_o same_o fall_n again_o these_o be_v strange_a riddle_n the_o heart_n of_o man_n i_o know_v must_v come_v down_o it_o must_v melt_v and_o break_v but_o yet_o a_o little_a sorrow_n do_v it_o in_o one_o when_o a_o great_a deal_n do_v but_o do_v it_o in_o another_o some_o man_n heart_n after_o sin_n be_v like_o hard_a wax_n great_a heat_n be_v require_v to_o melt_v it_o but_o other_o like_o soft_a wax_n a_o little_a will_v supple_a it_o as_o we_o find_v that_o at_o man_n first_o conversion_n some_o man_n turn_v to_o it_o without_o much_o ado_n with_o legal_a sorrow_n and_o the_o sin_n before_o regeneration_n i_o hope_v harden_v the_o heart_n more_o than_o the_o sin_n after_o for_o before_o there_o be_v nothing_o but_o a_o stone_n nothing_o but_o sin_n and_o flesh_n but_o after_o be_v the_o sin_n commit_v never_o so_o great_a yet_o there_o be_v some_o spirit_n some_o grace_n abide_v and_o so_o some_o softness_n with_o all_o we_o divine_v do_v use_n to_o teach_v that_o it_o be_v the_o love_n of_o god_n and_o not_o the_o sorrow_n for_o sin_n 1._o which_o be_v the_o cause_n to_o keep_v we_o from_o relapse_v and_o that_o too_o much_o sorrow_n do_v hurt_v and_o drive_v we_o from_o christ_n we_o all_o agree_v that_o a_o man_n may_v go_v too_o far_o when_o there_o be_v so_o much_o as_o do_v bring_v we_o to_o christ_n 7._o it_o be_v sufficient_a and_o that_o sometime_o a_o lesser_a degree_n of_o humble_v and_o mourn_v will_v do_v that_o god_n do_v not_o delight_n to_o see_v we_o in_o our_o ash_n no_o further_o than_o he_o may_v hear_v of_o we_o and_o it_o be_v not_o terror_n of_o the_o law_n but_o the_o peace_n of_o god_n which_o do_v garrizon_n and_o keep_v our_o heart_n 〈◊〉_d and_o mind_n and_o therefore_o this_o reason_n be_v of_o no_o force_n it_o hang_v the_o conscience_n on_o uncertainty_n and_o no_o man_n can_v determine_v when_o his_o sorrow_n be_v come_v to_o be_v enough_o and_o serve_v the_o turn_n in_o this_o divinity_n beside_o who_o see_v not_o that_o wicked_a man_n do_v grieve_v over_o and_o above_o out_o of_o fear_n or_o shame_n or_o both_o for_o some_o sin_n and_o more_o than_o godly_a man_n do_v for_o the_o same_o or_o the_o like_a sin_n and_o yet_o who_o dare_v say_v that_o by_o reason_n of_o this_o their_o grief_n they_o can_v never_o offend_v in_o the_o same_o again_o judas_n do_v grieve_v and_o sob_v extraordinary_a for_o kill_v christ_n yet_o i_o do_v not_o think_v but_o have_v the_o case_n come_v in_o his_o way_n he_o will_v have_v murder_v he_o again_o no_o trust_v he_o who_o present_o after_o kill_v himself_o and_o we_o find_v some_o who_o for_o murder_n fall_v into_o those_o flat_n of_o sorrow_n that_o they_o do_v run_v upon_o their_o own_o death_n and_o cause_n themselves_o for_o very_a remorse_n of_o conscience_n to_o die_v a_o dog_n death_n 5_o let_v we_o then_o say_v that_o it_o be_v a_o dangerous_a case_n for_o a_o godly_a man_n to_o sin_v the_o same_o great_a sin_n after_o repentance_n what_o if_o it_o do_v not_o put_v he_o out_o of_o christ_n what_o if_o it_o do_v not_o hang_v he_o yet_o it_o burn_v he_o in_o the_o hand_n whip_v he_o up_o and_o down_o the_o town_n my_o meaning_n be_v that_o it_o do_v cast_v he_o into_o a_o bed_n of_o miserable_a sorrow_n but_o withal_o we_o must_v say_v that_o it_o may_v possible_o be_v that_o after_o true_a &_o hearty_a repentance_n for_o such_o a_o fault_n a_o child_n of_o god_n may_v chance_v to_o fall_v into_o the_o same_o sin_n again_o and_o again_o how_o often_o i_o can_v tell_v but_o this_o i_o can_v tell_v that_o how_o often_o soever_o he_o sin_v let_v he_o repent_v and_o return_v and_o his_o pardon_n be_v ready_a they_o wrong_v god_n in_o his_o mercy_n and_o man_n in_o their_o comfort_n who_o do_v say_v the_o contrary_n 3._o the_o three_o duty_n that_o we_o be_v to_o look_v to_o after_o the_o tentation_n be_v that_o in_o case_n we_o do_v not_o finish_v the_o sin_n not_o act_v the_o fault_n but_o do_v drive_v away_o this_o fury_n that_o then_o we_o be_v very_o thankful_a to_o god_n it_o be_v his_o do_n only_o it_o be_v his_o grace_n that_o move_v he_o to_o stand_v for_o we_o when_o we_o be_v in_o danger_n to_o cast_v away_o our_o comfort_n it_o be_v a_o great_a mercy_n to_o rise_v again_o but_o a_o great_a too_o when_o god_n come_v and_o stand_v betwixt_o we_o and_o the_o fall_n of_o the_o two_o it_o be_v better_a not_o to_o sin_v the_o sin_n r._n than_o to_o be_v recover_v after_o we_o be_v down_o communiter_fw-la as_o it_o be_v in_o itself_o for_o a_o man_n to_o be_v preserve_v from_o a_o disease_n than_o to_o be_v cure_v of_o the_o disease_n i_o confess_v that_o we_o have_v a_o great_a experimental_a taste_n both_o of_o the_o love_n and_o power_n of_o god_n when_o we_o be_v recover_v but_o yet_o as_o touch_v our_o peace_n and_o comfort_n i_o hope_v we_o all_o see_v it_o be_v better_a not_o to_o sin_v the_o sin_n than_o have_v sin_v to_o be_v heal_v we_o save_v a_o great_a deal_n of_o inward_a pain_n and_o bitter_a sorrow_n by_o the_o bargain_n christ_n i_o know_v tell_v we_o most_o divine_o and_o sweet_o that_o to_o who_o much_o be_v forgive_v 47._o such_o do_v love_n much_o but_o yet_o we_o must_v not_o sin_v many_o sin_n that_o so_o much_o may_v be_v forgive_v we_o and_o we_o love_v much_o this_o be_v to_o turn_v the_o grace_n of_o god_n into_o wantonness_n 4._o and_o that_o which_o augustine_n have_v up_o and_o down_o in_o his_o tome_n answer_v all_o that_o those_o also_o be_v to_o love_v much_o who_o have_v be_v preserve_v by_o the_o providence_n and_o power_n of_o god_n from_o do_v such_o and_o so_o many_o transgression_n as_o some_o other_o have_v for_o why_o say_v he_o have_v we_o not_o sin_v those_o sin_n be_v the_o cause_n in_o our_o nature_n be_v the_o reason_n in_o our_o will_n no_o but_o only_o in_o the_o goodness_n of_o god_n we_o be_v then_o to_o thank_v he_o and_o love_v he_o for_o the_o sin_n we_o have_v commit_v and_o have_v have_v our_o pardon_n for_o they_o and_o for_o those_o many_o more_o which_o we_o shall_v have_v do_v have_v not_o the_o lord_n be_v all_o one_o as_o though_o we_o have_v do_v they_o and_o have_v find_v a_o pardon_n of_o they_o and_o one_o degree_n more_o and_o that_o be_v that_o by_o reason_n of_o his_o mere_a mercy_n we_o have_v be_v strong_o preserve_v from_o so_o sin_v against_o our_o god_n from_o so_o trouble_v the_o quiet_a of_o our_o own_o heart_n and_o in_o some_o particular_n from_o so_o scandalize_a the_o church_n and_o people_n of_o god._n 4._o the_o four_o duty_n after_o the_o tentation_n be_v to_o make_v a_o good_a use_n of_o it_o to_o get_v some_o good_a out_o of_o it_o we_o must_v come_v to_o some_o fruit_n after_o we_o have_v be_v so_o handle_v with_o such_o bitter_a plunge_n the_o earth_n after_o winter_n become_v fruitful_a so_o must_v we_o be_v now_o the_o good_a that_o come_v by_o tentation_n be_v manifold_a 1._o a_o sight_n of_o some_o corruption_n we_o see_v not_o before_o the_o beginning_n of_o all_o our_o comfort_n arise_v from_o a_o humble_a sight_n of_o our_o corruption_n and_o it_o be_v fit_a that_o when_o we_o will_v not_o see_v they_o and_o abhor_v they_o by_o what_o we_o find_v in_o the_o word_n we_o shall_v have_v the_o experience_n of_o they_o in_o ourselves_o then_o we_o say_v till_o now_o little_o do_v i_o think_v i_o have_v be_v thus_o and_o thus_o give_v to_o such_o rebellion_n than_o we_o cry_v ah_o wretched_a man_n that_o i_o be_o what_o a_o beast_n what_o a_o devil_n be_o i_o this_o do_v mighty_o empty_v we_o of_o ourselves_o and_o then_o we_o quick_o fill_v with_o god_n with_o christ_n this_o be_v amends_o enough_o for_o all_o our_o toil_n that_o we_o be_v make_v to_o see_v somewhat_o in_o ourselves_o which_o we_o never_o think_v to_o be_v in_o our_o heart_n 2._o the_o second_o be_v to_o see_v that_o there_o be_v some_o sin_n not_o sufficient_o and_o thorough_o mortify_v that_o as_o yet_o we_o have_v not_o go_v to_o the_o quick_a of_o it_o and_o what_o that_o sin_n be_v and_o now_o to_o take_v it_o in_o hand_n again_o and_o never_o give_v over_o till_o we_o break_v the_o heart_n of_o it_o lest_o it_o lie_v in_o the_o wind_n and_o do_v we_o some_o spite_n against_o
gross_a sin_n do_v after_o true_a repentance_n can_v not_o be_v the_o sin_n against_o the_o holy_a ghost_n i_o need_v not_o prove_v because_o no_o man_n can_v or_o will_v affirm_v it_o 2._o it_o be_v on_o all_o hauds_z grant_v that_o a_o man_n may_v fall_v into_o some_o other_o gross_a sin_n but_o not_o say_v they_o into_o the_o same_o but_o of_o this_o they_o neither_o can_v nor_o do_v give_v good_a reason_n there_o be_v no_o place_n in_o the_o word_n nor_o no_o ground_n in_o the_o nature_n of_o faith_n or_o of_o repentance_n but_o that_o a_o man_n may_v as_o well_o fall_v into_o the_o same_o gross_a sin_n as_o another_o as_o great_a because_o that_o another_o sin_n as_o great_a be_v as_o contrary_a to_o the_o habit_n of_o grace_n and_o act_n of_o repentance_n as_o the_o same_o 3._o what_o may_v stand_v with_o the_o grace_n of_o god_n that_o a_o godly_a man_n may_v do_v but_o to_o sin_v the_o same_o gross_a sin_n after_o repentance_n be_v not_o incompatible_a with_o the_o grace_n of_o god_n as_o now_o it_o be_v in_o we_o for_o what_o may_v stand_v with_o christ_n may_v stand_v with_o grace_n 5._o it_o be_v write_v that_o one_o act_n of_o sin_n can_v destroy_v the_o habit_n of_o grace_n as_o though_o many_o might_n indeed_o one_o act_n of_o a_o great_a and_o foul_a fault_n have_v do_v it_o as_o we_o see_v the_o angel_n fall_v in_o heaven_n and_o the_o fall_n of_o adam_n in_o paradise_n in_o who_o one_o act_n do_v cast_v out_o grace_n there_o grace_n be_v not_o the_o grace_n of_o christ_n the_o grace_n of_o justification_n ferina_fw-la and_o philosopher_n hold_v it_o in_o some_o ferall_a vice_n but_o now_o as_o the_o case_n stand_v with_o we_o to_o double_v that_o act_n again_o and_o often_o and_o i_o can_v say_v how_o often_o can_v of_o itself_o thrust_v a_o man_n out_o of_o christ_n why_o because_o we_o be_v keep_v in_o he_o and_o his_o grace_n in_o we_o by_o the_o power_n of_o god_n and_o the_o spirit_n of_o christ_n now_o for_o a_o man_n to_o say_v to_o sin_v such_o a_o sin_n we_o treat_v of_o can_v stand_v with_o grace_n in_o we_o since_o that_o grace_n be_v keep_v in_o by_o the_o power_n of_o god_n and_o of_o christ_n be_v to_o i_o uncomfortable_a divinity_n 4._o that_o doctrine_n can_v hold_v which_o leave_v the_o conscience_n of_o man_n without_o a_o stay_n and_o so_o do_v this_o when_o a_o man_n shall_v be_v set_v on_o the_o rack_n for_o ever_o that_o he_o be_v not_o in_o christ_n &_o why_o because_o he_o do_v sin_n the_o same_o gross_a sin_n after_o true_a repentance_n or_o at_o least_o that_o his_o repentance_n be_v not_o true_a and_o if_o i_o be_v not_o a_o true_a christian_a i_o know_v not_o when_o i_o shall_v be_v and_o if_o this_o my_o repentance_n be_v not_o true_a i_o fear_v i_o shall_v never_o repent_v aright_o it_o must_v be_v hold_v against_o all_o true_a repentance_n or_o else_o there_o can_v be_v no_o state_n of_o the_o question_n make_v for_o true_a repentance_n have_v a_o breadth_n with_o it_o and_o do_v admit_v of_o degree_n and_o if_o they_o say_v that_o when_o a_o man_n have_v attain_v to_o a_o great_a measure_n of_o repentance_n than_o it_o will_v carry_v it_o for_o he_o that_o he_o shall_v never_o sin_v the_o same_o gross_a sin_n again_o here_o the_o heart_n of_o a_o man_n can_v find_v no_o soot_n because_o by_o this_o their_o assertion_n no_o man_n can_v possible_o set_v down_o when_o a_o man_n have_v attain_v to_o the_o point_n and_o degree_n of_o true_a repentance_n and_o therefore_o they_o must_v affirm_v it_o of_o any_o true_a repentance_n that_o whosoever_o have_v true_o in_o the_o least_o degree_n and_o measure_v repent_v for_o a_o gross_a sin_n shall_v never_o while_o he_o live_v commit_v the_o same_o again_o and_o if_o he_o do_v then_o as_o yet_o he_o be_v not_o nor_o never_o yet_o be_v in_o christ_n which_o be_v a_o tenet_n very_o uncomfortable_a and_o no_o way_n agreeable_a with_o the_o sweet_a principle_n of_o the_o covenant_n of_o grace_n and_o the_o free_a and_o infinite_a mercy_n of_o god_n propose_v to_o we_o in_o the_o gospel_n last_o this_o can_v stand_v because_o no_o man_n can_v satisfy_v the_o conscience_n of_o man_n when_o the_o sin_n he_o have_v commit_v be_v or_o be_v not_o a_o gross_a sin_n they_o say_v that_o a_o man_n may_v sin_v small_a sin_n of_o infirmity_n again_o and_o again_o after_o repentance_n and_o i_o say_v that_o there_o can_v be_v no_o sound_a reason_n why_o a_o man_n may_v not_o after_o his_o repentance_n do_v the_o same_o gross_a sin_n again_o as_o well_o as_o a_o infirmity_n humble_v for_o and_o repent_v of_o but_o to_o pass_v that_o the_o thing_n i_o urge_v be_v that_o it_o pass_v the_o skill_n i_o think_v of_o any_o man_n live_v to_o set_v i_o down_o a_o limit_n that_o so_o far_o i_o may_v go_v and_o my_o sin_n be_v but_o a_o infirmity_n but_o if_o i_o go_v a_o point_n further_o that_o then_o it_o be_v a_o gross_a sin_n for_o if_o i_o may_v step_v one_o degree_n and_o point_n further_o and_o yet_o my_o sin_n be_v a_o infirmity_n still_o than_o i_o say_v why_o not_o another_o degree_n further_o and_o so_o why_o not_o another_o and_o so_o another_o and_o who_o can_v say_v when_o and_o where_o we_o must_v stay_v the_o conscience_n of_o a_o man_n in_o perplexity_n must_v have_v a_o rock_n to_o settle_v upon_o but_o when_o it_o be_v a_o gross_a sin_n and_o when_o it_o be_v not_o can_v be_v punctual_o define_v circumstance_n after_o the_o case_n and_o many_o sin_n of_o the_o first_o table_n be_v gross_a and_o great_a enough_o which_o yet_o to_o many_o of_o we_o be_v account_v of_o as_o no_o such_o sin_n many_o determine_v a_o gross_a sin_n from_o the_o matter_n esse_fw-la but_o the_o form_n be_v it_o that_o chief_o give_v name_n and_o nature_n to_o a_o sin_n and_o the_o manner_n be_v the_o form_n of_o a_o sin_n rather_o than_o the_o matter_n and_o hence_o sometime_o when_o the_o matter_n be_v not_o so_o great_a yet_o the_o manner_n may_v be_v such_o that_o it_o may_v well_o go_v for_o a_o gross_a sin_n the_o only_a reason_n that_o ever_o i_o hear_v be_v for_o that_o after_o a_o man_n come_v to_o repent_v of_o a_o foul_a fault_n a_o man_n sorrow_n be_v so_o great_a he_o feel_v such_o smart_n that_o he_o will_v never_o come_v there_o again_o because_o he_o will_v drink_v of_o that_o bitter_a cup_n no_o more_o it_o be_v true_a that_o such_o a_o man_n will_v go_v his_o way_n and_o do_v so_o no_o more_o if_o he_o can_v do_v withal_o but_o i_o hope_v our_o divinity_n tell_v we_o that_o what_o ever_o our_o sorrow_n have_v be_v how_o much_o soever_o the_o grief_n be_v yet_o except_o god_n do_v keep_v we_o the_o remembrance_n of_o former_a compunction_n can_v preserve_v we_o when_o the_o wind_n and_o sun_n the_o occasion_n and_o tentation_n do_v meet_v now_o show_v i_o a_o place_n that_o have_v in_o it_o a_o promise_n that_o when_o our_o grief_n have_v be_v so_o great_a that_o then_o god_n will_v preserve_v we_o from_o ever_o fall_v into_o the_o same_o fault_n i_o know_v god_n do_v so_o tender_v we_o that_o he_o use_v not_o to_o let_v we_o come_v to_o that_o pass_n again_o and_o he_o make_v our_o fit_n of_o former_a sorrow_n a_o mean_n through_o his_o blessing_n for_o to_o preserve_v we_o but_o that_o a_o godly_a man_n shall_v ever_o be_v so_o preserve_v be_v beside_o the_o text_n i_o think_v again_o i_o desire_v proof_n that_o still_o a_o end_n a_o regenerate_a man_n do_v when_o ever_o he_o repent_v of_o a_o gross_a crime_n entertain_v his_o heart_n with_o a_o great_a deal_n of_o sorrow_n some_o i_o know_v do_v and_o many_o and_o if_o you_o will_v the_o most_o but_o that_o ever_o it_o be_v so_o that_o we_o never_o after_o conversion_n repent_v true_o of_o a_o gross_a sin_n but_o our_o sorrow_n be_v much_o and_o great_a i_o think_v there_o be_v no_o such_o thing_n in_o the_o word_n of_o god_n many_o have_v that_o initial_a repentance_n bring_v about_o by_o the_o prick_n of_o a_o pin_n without_o a_o lance_n by_o the_o sweet_a music_n of_o the_o gospel_n without_o any_o great_a noise_n of_o the_o law_n and_o so_o i_o say_v there_o after_o repentance_n too_o when_o they_o by_o occasion_n and_o tentation_n fall_v into_o
