that_o thou_o shall_v spare_v somewhat_o of_o thou_o to_o relieve_v other_o it_o may_v be_v thy_o own_o case_n every_o man_n know_v his_o beginning_n not_o his_o end_n in_o the_o mean_a time_n thank_v god_n that_o thou_o be_v not_o so_o and_o help_v those_o that_o be_v the_o barrenness_n of_o the_o body_n be_v sometime_o a_o curse_n but_o the_o barrenness_n of_o the_o soul_n be_v accurse_v that_o be_v a_o punishment_n this_o a_o sin_n and_o punish_v with_o hell_n we_o come_v not_o into_o this_o world_n mere_o to_o fill_v up_o room_n but_o to_o bring_v forth_o fruit_n not_o for_o show_v but_o for_o use_v our_o chief_a study_n must_v be_v not_o for_o ease_v for_o riches_n or_o pleasure_n but_o fruitfulness_n if_o we_o be_v all_o for_o pleasure_n our_o fruit_n be_v hell_n and_o if_o we_o be_v fruitful_a our_o pleasure_n shall_v never_o end_v bless_a be_v they_o which_o die_v in_o the_o lord_n for_o they_o rest_v from_o their_o labour_n in_o this_o world_n there_o be_v nothing_o but_o

of_o our_o affliction_n if_o i_o be_o never_o so_o beleaguer_v with_o sickness_n or_o want_v or_o famine_n or_o all_o at_o once_o i_o will_v remember_v i_o come_v not_o into_o this_o world_n to_o take_v my_o rest_n but_o to_o prepare_v for_o it_o that_o ground_n be_v very_o hard_a where_o the_o traveller_n foot_n leave_v not_o impression_n and_o that_o heart_n be_v very_o stony_a where_o god_n blessing_n not_o only_o take_v no_o root_n but_o leave_v no_o sign_n as_o soon_o forget_v as_o receive_v it_o be_v all_o he_o ask_v for_o all_o he_o do_v a_o thankful_a heart_n with_o what_o face_n can_v we_o expect_v god_n shall_v give_v we_o our_o ask_n that_o deny_v he_o his_o god_n make_v other_o creature_n for_o man_n service_n man_n for_o his_o own_o they_o for_o our_o use_n and_o we_o for_o his_o glory_n how_o much_o o_o lord_n do_v we_o owe_v to_o thou_o for_o ourselves_o and_o they_o that_o have_v so_o abound_v to_o we_o above_o they_o and_o have_v not_o make_v they_o but_o for_o we_o teach_v we_o to_o give_v ourselves_o to_o thou_o for_o they_o who_o have_v give_v they_o to_o we_o for_o ourselves_o god_n be_v glorify_v in_o all_o his_o creature_n but_o not_o in_o all_o

for_o ourselves_o beyond_o other_o leper_n in_o soul_n god_n know_v and_o it_o be_v his_o mercy_n we_o be_v not_o so_o in_o body_n whereby_o we_o shall_v at_o once_o need_v the_o help_n and_o want_v the_o company_n of_o friend_n and_o not_o only_o be_v miserable_a but_o shun_v i_o will_v praise_v god_n not_o only_o for_o the_o good_a which_o i_o have_v but_o for_o the_o evil_n which_o i_o may_v have_v and_o have_v not_o our_o saviour_n know_v what_o he_o do_v when_o he_o teach_v we_o to_o pray_v our_o father_n which_o be_v in_o heaven_n etc._n etc._n to_o give_v we_o and_o to_o forgive_v we_o for_o he_o only_o can_v do_v both_o none_o can_v forgive_v sin_n or_o give_v grace_n but_o god_n alone_o yet_o do_v he_o not_o always_o give_v with_o his_o own_o hand_n but_o reach_v grace_n
