cry_v out_o as_o the_o disciple_n do_v it_o be_v a_o spirit_n oh_o say_v a_o soul_n i_o have_v a_o little_a comfort_n in_o such_o a_o ordinance_n but_o i_o be_o afraid_a it_o be_v but_o a_o spirit_n

will_v thou_o know_v thy_o interest_n in_o the_o love_n of_o god_n then_o see_v if_o thou_o do_v hate_v sin_n for_o it_o be_v inconsistent_a for_o the_o revelation_n of_o god_n love_n to_o the_o soul_n and_o the_o manifestation_n of_o the_o soul_n love_v to_o sin_n to_o be_v in_o the_o soul_n at_o one_o and_o the_o same_o time_n nothing_o give_v such_o a_o mortal_a wound_n to_o sin_n nor_o make_v it_o bleed_v to_o death_n soon_o in_o the_o soul_n than_o the_o manifestation_n of_o the_o love_n of_o a_o wound_a saviour_n that_o do_v bleed_v for_o the_o soul_n my_o friend_n you_o may_v take_v this_o for_o a_o certain_a truth_n that_o proportionable_o to_o the_o love_n of_o god_n that_o be_v manifest_v unto_o you_o such_o will_v be_v your_o hatred_n of_o sin_n that_o you_o commit_v against_o god_n as_o a_o woman_n that_o have_v experience_v much_o of_o her_o husband_n love_n it_o make_v her_o violent_a against_o her_o husband_n enemy_n so_o a_o believer_n have_v experience_v much_o of_o the_o love_n of_o god_n set_v his_o soul_n the_o more_o against_o sin_n which_o he_o know_v be_v god_n great_a enemy_n oh_o say_v the_o soul_n that_o have_v the_o love_n of_o god_n shed_v abroad_o in_o it_o how_o can_v i_o hug_v this_o sin_n in_o my_o bosom_n that_o do_v pierce_v my_o dear_a and_o love_a lord_n jesus_n to_o the_o heart_n how_o can_v i_o hide_v this_o sin_n as_o sugar_n under_o my_o tongue_n which_o do_v cause_v the_o tongue_n of_o my_o lord_n jesus_n to_o utter_v those_o bitter_a cry_n and_o heart_n rend_v expression_n with_o his_o eye_n full_a of_o tear_n and_o his_o heart_n full_a of_o lamentation_n my_o god_n my_o god_n why_o have_v thou_o forsake_v i_o when_o god_n have_v once_o discover_v the_o freeness_n of_o his_o love_n unto_o his_o people_n they_o quick_o say_v with_o ephraim_n what_o have_v i_o to_o do_v any_o more_o with_o idol_n but_o if_o on_o the_o contrary_n thou_o love_v and_o delight_v in_o sin_n and_o be_v ready_a to_o extenuate_v it_o it_o be_v a_o sign_n that_o the_o love_n of_o god_n be_v not_o shed_v abroad_o in_o thy_o soul_n 10._o if_o thou_o be_v one_o that_o can_v real_o experience_v the_o love_n of_o god_n in_o and_o to_o thy_o soul_n thou_o be_v not_o only_o bring_v to_o hate_v sin_n because_o it_o be_v such_o a_o enemy_n to_o that_o god_n who_o have_v manifest_v so_o much_o love_n to_o thy_o soul_n but_o god_n have_v real_o destroy_v sin_n in_o thy_o soul_n it_o be_v thy_o enemy_n as_o well_o as_o he_o i_o shall_v endeavour_v to_o set_v it_o forth_o by_o a_o similitude_n and_o how_o god_n do_v manifest_v his_o love_n to_o his_o people_n by_o destroy_v their_o corruption_n suppose_v a_o man_n be_v walk_v on_o the_o way_n with_o his_o wife_n and_o she_o stray_v out_o of_o the_o way_n shall_v be_v surprise_v by_o a_o company_n of_o bloody_a cutthroat_n and_o have_v take_v away_o or_o deface_v her_o ornament_n they_o shall_v go_v about_o to_o murder_v she_o now_o though_o her_o husband_n can_v stand_v still_o awhile_o and_o see_v his_o wife_n somewhat_o rough_o handle_v that_o she_o may_v take_v heed_n another_o time_n how_o she_o stray_v so_o far_o from_o he_o yet_o when_o he_o see_v they_o about_o to_o murder_v she_o than_o his_o bowel_n yern_v towards_o she_o and_o though_o she_o be_v in_o a_o fault_n yet_o still_o she_o be_v his_o wife_n whereupon_o he_o go_v to_o her_o rescue_n destroy_v those_o enemy_n of_o she_o which_o otherwise_o will_v have_v destroy_v she_o and_o thus_o he_o show_v his_o love_n to_o his_o wife_n true_o my_o friend_n thus_o it_o be_v a_o true_a believer_n have_v god_n for_o his_o husband_n while_o we_o be_v in_o this_o world_n we_o be_v walk_v on_o the_o way_n to_o heaven_n enjoy_v the_o presence_n of_o our_o heavenly_a busband_n but_o the_o
