the_o first_o and_o the_o charitable_a love_n which_o be_v the_o last_o may_v very_o well_o be_v compare_v unto_o water_n which_o be_v of_o a_o heavy_a nature_n for_o it_o run_v very_o slow_o in_o

do_v not_o spring_v there_o for_o it_o be_v infuse_v by_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n but_o the_o other_o love_n which_o be_v carnal_a earthly_a and_o sinful_a do_v flow_v from_o thence_o in_o great_a abundance_n because_o it_o natural_o spring_v there_o and_o may_v better_o be_v compare_v to_o fire_n which_o be_v of_o a_o light_a nature_n for_o wickedness_n burn_v as_o a_o fire_n which_o will_v consume_v both_o body_n and_o soul_n if_o it_o be_v not_o prevent_v by_o repentance_n so_o also_o this_o natural_a love_n burn_v as_o a_o fire_n in_o a_o honest_a heart_n which_o be_v infuse_v by_o a_o divine_a power_n and_o not_o by_o our_o own_o corrupt_a reason_n or_o judgement_n now_o as_o fire_n i_o will_v consider_v it_o in_o 4._o thing_n in_o its_o smoke_n or_o manifestation_n in_o its_o fire_n or_o augmentation_n in_o its_o flame_n or_o confirmation_n and_o in_o its_o ash_n or_o consummation_n first_o consider_v this_o fire_n of_o true_a love_n in_o its_o smoke_n it_o be_v a_o common_a proverb_n where_o there_o be_v smoke_n there_o be_v fire_n so_o where_o there_o be_v apparent_a manifestation_n of_o love_n there_o be_v love_n the_o sign_n of_o love_n be_v these_o in_o the_o tongue_n delightful_a speech_n in_o the_o eye_n amorous_a look_n in_o the_o countenance_n modest_a bashfulness_n in_o the_o hand_n liberal_a present_n and_o in_o the_o face_n active_a

there_o be_v no_o way_n to_o extinguish_v this_o fi●e_n but_o to_o take_v away_o the_o fuel_n and_o then_o it_o die_v but_o the_o place_n will_v be_v s●ene_v where_o it_o have_v be_v the_o heart_n

in_o his_o choice_n but_o in_o the_o three_o place_n if_o this_o fire_n continue_v still_o burn_v that_o it_o come_v to_o flame_n if_o it_o continue_v to_o be_v confirm_v either_o by_o a_o real_a
