and_o so_o man_n sit_v down_o discourage_v and_o this_o must_v needs_o hinder_v in_o many_o respect_n first_o because_o it_o take_v away_o all_o alacrity_n for_o what_o a_o man_n have_v no_o hope_n to_o bring_v to_o pass_v he_o 1._o will_v never_o go_v about_o it_o so_o a_o scholar_n if_o he_o have_v no_o hope_n to_o get_v learning_n will_v give_v over_o study_v take_v hope_v away_o and_o take_v away_o all_o endeavour_n nay_o take_v away_o all_o desire_n which_o be_v more_o for_o what_o be_v out_o of_o a_o man_n hope_n a_o man_n desire_v not_o for_o object_n they_o work_v when_o they_o lie_v

out_o of_o their_o hope_n and_o therefore_o when_o man_n be_v discourage_v as_o think_v they_o shall_v never_o have_v such_o a_o lust_n mortify_v they_o sit_v down_o without_o all_o desire_n or_o

what_o they_o be_v and_o that_o liberty_n which_o they_o do_v enjoy_v and_o so_o man_n be_v discourage_v from_o go_v to_o god_n they_o turn_v and_o rest_n on_o something_o else_o for_o the_o heart_n will_v have_v some_o liberty_n again_o when_o we_o come_v to_o the_o lord_n satan_n he_o cast_v in_o all_o these_o fear_n he_o muster_v up_o all_o objection_n but_o the_o spirit_n you_o see_v say_v

why_o the_o lord_n will_v not_o forsake_v his_o people_n he_o be_v still_o the_o same_o god_n he_o will_v not_o forsake_v his_o own_o as_o a_o father_n will_v not_o forsake_v his_o child_n and_o
