have_v no_o hope_n yet_o herein_o god_n have_v magnify_v his_o abundant_a love_n towards_o sinner_n that_o although_o they_o have_v sin_v to_o a_o high_a degree_n yet_o if_o they_o be_v so_o far_o

which_o will_v get_v the_o better_a at_o last_o we_o can_v say_v that_o we_o have_v entire_o submit_v our_o neck_n to_o christ_n yoke_n for_o that_o require_v a_o great_a deal_n more_o than_o we_o

and_o go_v on_o in_o it_o hope_v that_o god_n will_v accept_v some_o kind_n of_o repentance_n in_o stead_n of_o it_o or_o where_o there_o have_v be_v long_o struggle_v and_o many_o act_n of_o

and_o will_v bring_v they_o to_o a_o account_n for_o their_o action_n but_o how_o then_o come_v he_o in_o this_o verse_n to_o seem_v rather_o to_o give_v a_o permission_n to_o young_a man_n in_o the_o time_n of_o youth_n to_o indulge_v themselves_o in_o their_o mirth_n and_o vanity_n rejoice_v o_o young_a man_n in_o thy_o youth_n etc._n etc._n some_o think_v that_o the_o wise_a man_n only_o

like_o irony_n or_o sarcasm_n in_o any_o part_n of_o the_o forego_n book_n for_o he_o begin_v it_o with_o a_o tragical_a exclamation_n against_o the_o vanity_n of_o humane_a life_n vanity_n of_o vanity_n say_v the_o preacher_n 2._o vanity_n of_o vanity_n all_o be_v vanity_n and_o he_o pursue_v his_o argument_n by_o a_o particular_a induction_n of_o the_o most_o tempt_a and_o please_a vanity_n of_o life_n and_o particular_o all_o sort_n of_o sensual_a delight_n as_o mirth_n and_o jollity_n in_o the_o first_o place_n than_o 1._o wine_n and_o music_n fine_a palace_n curious_a vineyard_n

do_v he_o make_v on_o all_o these_o pleasure_n of_o life_n then_o i_o look_v on_o all_o the_o work_n that_o my_o hand_n have_v wrought_v and_o on_o 11._o the_o labour_n that_o i_o have_v labour_v to_o do_v and_o behold_v all_o be_v vanity_n and_o vexation_n of_o spirit_n what_o encouragement_n then_o can_v the_o wiseman_n after_o so_o much_o experience_n of_o the_o world_n give_v to_o young_a man_n here_o in_o the_o text_n to_o rejoice_v in_o the_o day_n of_o their_o youth_n and_o to_o walk_v in_o the_o way_n of_o their_o heart_n and_o in_o the_o sight_n of_o their_o eye_n i._o e._n to_o

these_o word_n for_o this_o we_o be_v to_o observe_v that_o the_o preacher_n have_v declare_v his_o own_o main_a scope_n and_o design_n in_o the_o beginning_n and_o conclusion_n of_o his_o book_n bring_v in_o sometime_o the_o different_a sense_n which_o mankind_n be_v apt_a to_o have_v concern_v the_o happiness_n of_o life_n and_o that_o be_v the_o reason_n that_o we_o meet_v with_o such_o different_a expression_n concern_v it_o in_o one_o place_n it_o be_v say_v that_o there_o be_v no_o better_a thing_n under_o the_o sun_n than_o to_o eat_v and_o 15._o drink_v and_o to_o be_v merry_a but_o in_o another_o he_o say_v sorrow_n be_v better_a than_o laughter_n and_o 3._o by_o the_o sadness_n of_o the_o countenance_n the_o heart_n be_v make_v better_a in_o one_o place_n he_o say_v all_o thing_n come_v alike_o to_o all_o there_o be_v one_o event_n to_o the_o 2._o righteous_a and_o to_o the_o wicked_a but_o in_o another_o that_o it_o shall_v be_v well_o with_o they_o that_o fear_v the_o lord_n but_o it_o shall_v not_o be_v well_o 13._o with_o the_o wicked_a how_o can_v such_o passage_n as_o these_o be_v reconcile_v if_o we_o look_v on_o they_o as_o express_v the_o sense_n of_o the_o same_o person_n but_o if_o we_o allow_v they_o to_o be_v the_o different_a notion_n of_o two_o sort_n of_o man_n in_o this_o world_n they_o be_v easy_a to_o be_v understand_v although_o not_o

other_o of_o those_o who_o look_v on_o this_o life_n only_o as_o a_o passage_n to_o another_o and_o that_o all_o person_n ought_v to_o behave_v themselves_o here_o so_o as_o conduce_v most_o to_o their_o happiness_n hereafter_o and_o according_a to_o these_o different_a scheme_n we_o have_v in_o the_o word_n of_o the_o text_n two_o very_a different_a sort_n of_o counsel_n and_o advice_n to_o

of_o it_o rejoice_v o_o young_a man_n in_o thy_o youth_n and_o let_v thy_o heart_n cheer_v thou_o in_o the_o day_n of_o thy_o youth_n and_o walk_v in_o the_o way_n of_o thy_o heart_n and_o in_o the_o
