pass_v from_o death_n unto_o life_n becanse_o we_o love_v the_o brethren_n he_o that_o love_v not_o his_o brother_n abide_v in_o death_n from_o all_o this_o i_o hope_v it_o be_v plain_a that_o the_o best_a way_n for_o man_n to_o set_v forth_o the_o bless_a nature_n of_o god_n and_o the_o conformity_n of_o their_o spirit_n unto_o he_o be_v to_o be_v just_a and_o charitable_a in_o all_o their_o deal_n with_o all_o sort_n of_o man_n when_o their_o action_n be_v conform_v to_o this_o rule_n they_o show_v what_o god_n be_v and_o how_o like_a they_o be_v unto_o he_o and_o when_o they_o be_v not_o all_o their_o religion_n be_v but_o show_v pretence_n and_o hypocrisy_n and_o as_o loathsome_a to_o almighty_a god_n as_o atheism_n or_o profaneness_n itself_o thus_o in_o the_o first_o of_o isaiah_n to_o which_o i_o refer_v you_o the_o prophet_n let_v the_o people_n of_o israel_n know_v that_o without_o justice_n and_o judgement_n and_o charity_n their_o sabbath_n and_o assembly_n and_o sacrifice_n and_o offering_n and_o prayer_n be_v vain_a and_o loathsome_a unto_o he_o that_o be_v hate_v they_o and_o be_v weary_a of_o they_o and_o can_v not_o delight_v therein_o nay_o from_o observe_v these_o two_o general_a law_n of_o justice_n and_o charity_n whereof_o the_o one_o keep_v we_o off_o from_o do_v any_o injury_n or_o harm_n and_o the_o other_o oblige_v we_o to_o do_v all_o the_o good_a we_o can_v to_o other_o man_n result_v all_o the_o happiness_n of_o humane_a society_n and_o all_o the_o good_a that_o man_n mutual_o receive_v from_o one_o another_o in_o every_o relation_n of_o the_o world_n this_o make_v prince_n as_o god_n upon_o earth_n and_o subject_n as_o obedient_a and_o dutiful_a unto_o they_o as_o the_o angel_n be_v unto_o god_n not_o only_o for_o wrath_n but_o conscience-sake_n it_o make_v husband_n love_n their_o wife_n as_o christ_n love_v his_o church_n and_o wife_n submit_v themselves_o unto_o their_o own_o husband_n as_o it_o be_v fit_a in_o the_o lord_n it_o keep_v parent_n from_o provoke_v their_o child_n and_o oblige_v child_n to_o obey_v their_o parent_n in_o all_o thing_n because_o it_o be_v well_o please_v unto_o the_o lord_n it_o make_v master_n so_o behave_v themselves_o to_o their_o servant_n as_o to_o let_v they_o know_v that_o they_o have_v a_o master_n in_o heaven_n and_o servant_n account_v their_o master_n worthy_a of_o all_o honour_n and_o obey_v they_o not_o with_o eye-service_n as_o men-pleasers_a but_o in_o singleness_n of_o heart_n fear_v god_n and_o do_v whatsoever_o they_o do_v hearty_o as_o unto_o the_o lord_n it_o make_v bishop_n and_o minister_n look_v to_o themselves_o and_o unto_o the_o flock_n over_o which_o the_o chief_a shepherd_n have_v make_v they_o overseer_n and_o their_o flock_n obey_v they_o that_o have_v the_o rule_n over_o they_o in_o the_o lord_n because_o they_o watch_v for_o their_o soul_n in_o a_o word_n justice_n and_o charity_n which_o spring_n from_o one_o root_n and_o which_o the_o scripture_n call_v by_o the_o name_n of_o righteousness_n in_o all_o special_a relation_n exert_v themselves_o in_o special_a effect_n and_o may_v they_o govern_v the_o world_n they_o will_v quick_o turn_v it_o into_o paradise_n and_o make_v all_o human_a society_n kingdom_n church_n city_n college_n company_n county_n and_o family_n so_o many_o penuel_n where_o the_o lord_n may_v be_v see_v iii_o and_o so_o i_o proceed_v to_o the_o three_o sort_n of_o human_a action_n which_o concern_v our_o duty_n towards_o ourselves_o and_o they_o tend_v to_o the_o glory_n of_o god_n and_o make_v of_o he_o shine_v in_o our_o conversation_n when_o they_o be_v keep_v within_o the_o divine_a bound_n of_o moderation_n or_o sobriety_n which_o be_v to_o be_v observe_v in_o the_o government_n of_o the_o body_n and_o soul_n the_o government_n of_o the_o body_n consist_v on_o one_o hand_n in_o keep_v of_o it_o from_o the_o excessive_a desire_n and_o use_v of_o pleasure_n and_o on_o the_o other_o from_o the_o excessive_a aversation_n and_o abhorrence_n of_o pain_n under_o pleasure_n we_o may_v reduce_v all_o thing_n that_o be_v very_o pleasant_a or_o delightful_a to_o the_o bodily_a

call_v chastity_n or_o in_o riches_n and_o honour_n which_o we_o may_v call_v contempt_n of_o the_o world_n and_o under_o pain_n we_o may_v reduce_v all_o thing_n that_o be_v very_o ungrateful_a and_o

an_z as_o for_o the_o government_n of_o the_o soul_n there_o be_v one_o rule_v which_o sobriety_n prescribe_v to_o she_o also_o and_o that_o be_v not_o to_o think_v more_o high_o of_o herself_o than_o she_o ought_v to_o think_v but_o to_o think_v sober_o as_o the_o apostle_n speak_v and_o this_o be_v humility_n or_o lowliness_n of_o mind_n now_o according_a to_o this_o comprehensive_a scheme_n
