gather_v strength_n unto_o himself_o by_o this_o mean_n three_o this_o must_v needs_o be_v very_o effectual_a because_o it_o be_v exceed_o forcible_a against_o sin_n for_o when_o sorrow_n come_v into_o the_o heart_n sin_n go_v out_o it_o will_v not_o lodge_v there_o unless_o it_o be_v cockered_a and_o make_v much_o of_o when_o every_o one_o lament_v his_o iniquity_n and_o mourn_v over_o christ_n jesus_n who_o he_o have_v pierce_v by_o his_o sin_n then_o there_o be_v a_o fountain_n open_v to_o wash_v they_o from_o all_o even_o from_o sin_n that_o make_v a_o separation_n betwixt_o god_n and_o us._n zacharie_n 12._o &_o 13._o see_v then_o that_o this_o godly_a and_o holy_a sorrow_n be_v a_o mean_n to_o make_v god_n pity_v we_o to_o make_v we_o call_v earnest_o upon_o he_o and_o to_o expel_v sin_n which_o may_v hinder_v we_o from_o prevail_a with_o he_o it_o must_v needs_o follow_v that_o of_o all_o remedy_n in_o time_n of_o distress_n this_o be_v the_o best_a and_o sure_a use_v 1_o this_o serve_v for_o instruction_n unto_o we_o to_o use_v all_o mean_n and_o furtherance_n whereby_o we_o may_v attain_v unto_o this_o there_o be_v many_o affliction_n abroad_o many_o near_a home_n in_o our_o own_o town_n and_o family_n nay_o there_o be_v many_o thing_n amiss_o in_o our_o own_o heart_n here_o be_v a_o medicine_n for_o evetie_n one_o of_o our_o malady_n let_v we_o get_v it_o and_o use_v it_o and_o all_o argument_n and_o help_n that_o may_v continue_v and_o increase_v it_o as_o the_o ninevite_n have_v direction_n by_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n as_o many_o of_o they_o as_o be_v his_o do_v when_o jonah_n threaten_v destruction_n against_o their_o city_n within_o forty_o day_n they_o abase_v themselves_o and_o fall_v to_o mourning_n and_o use_v fast_v to_o help_v it_o onward_o the_o people_n must_v show_v it_o in_o their_o countenance_n the_o low_v of_o the_o beast_n and_o cry_v of_o the_o infant_n must_v further_o they_o to_o this_o holy_a remorse_n and_o grief_n for_o their_o great_a and_o heinous_a transgression_n they_o have_v grieve_v the_o lord_n by_o their_o iniquity_n and_o therefore_o now_o they_o will_v grieve_v themselves_o with_o godly_a contrition_n for_o they_o hence_o it_o be_v that_o god_n people_n among_o the_o jew_n use_v to_o wear_v sackcloth_n to_o lie_v on_o the_o ground_n and_o to_o put_v dust_n upon_o their_o head_n which_o
