in_o thou_o thou_o be_v a_o liar_n and_o if_o thou_o say_v that_o there_o be_v no_o other_o thing_n in_o thou_o but_o sin_n thou_o be_v also_o a_o liar_n and_o think_v thou_o that_o see_v i_o have_v begin_v to_o translate_v thou_o from_o darkness_n into_o my_o light_n and_o to_o make_v thou_o a_o new_a creature_n think_v thou_o that_o i_o will_v leave_v thou_o until_o i_o have_v do_v my_o work_n in_o thou_o therefore_o my_o belove_a give_v not_o such_o ear_n to_o satan_n or_o thy_o own_o corruption_n as_o to_o take_v their_o testimony_n against_o i_o or_o to_o make_v thou_o think_v that_o my_o pledge_n which_o i_o have_v give_v thou_o be_v not_o worthy_a of_o credit_n that_o by_o they_o thou_o shall_v be_v assure_v of_o mercy_n the_o soul_n i_o can_v deny_v o_o lord_n but_o that_o many_o time_n i_o have_v feel_v the_o sweetness_n of_o thy_o heavenly_a consolation_n which_o have_v great_o rejoice_v my_o soul_n but_o alas_o my_o grief_n be_v so_o much_o the_o great_a that_o by_o my_o own_o default_n i_o shall_v now_o be_v deprive_v of_o they_o for_o i_o have_v grieve_v thy_o holy_a spirit_n yea_o i_o have_v do_v what_o i_o can_v to_o quench_v he_o &_o therefore_o it_o be_v that_o the_o comforter_n who_o be_v wont_a to_o refresh_v my_o soul_n be_v away_o nor_o can_v i_o feel_v his_o presence_n with_o i_o as_o before_o the_o lord_n because_o i_o be_o not_o change_v therefore_o be_v it_o that_o you_o o_o son_n of_o jacob_n be_v not_o consume_v many_o indeed_o be_v the_o change_n whereunto_o you_o be_v subject_a but_o i_o remain_v the_o same_o &_o there_o be_v no_o shadow_n of_o alteration_n with_o i_o i_o be_o 1._o 17._o be_v not_o therefore_o afraid_a o_o my_o well-beloved_n neither_o esteem_v thyself_o to_o be_v reject_v of_o i_o albeit_o that_o sometime_o i_o hide_v my_o face_n from_o thou_o all_o my_o way_n be_v mercy_n and_o truth_n to_o i_o it_o be_v for_o thou_o that_o sometime_o i_o go_v from_o thou_o and_o it_o be_v for_o thou_o that_o again_o i_o return_v unto_o thou_o for_o if_o i_o come_v it_o be_v for_o thy_o consolation_n that_o continual_a heaviness_n through_o thy_o manifold_a temptation_n shall_v not_o oppress_v thou_o how_o oft_o have_v thou_o find_v this_o when_o thou_o be_v sick_a of_o love_n i_o have_v strengthen_v thou_o with_o the_o flagon_n of_o my_o wine_n &_o comfort_v thou_o with_o my_o apple_n my_o fruit_n have_v be_v sweet_a in_o thy_o mouth_n &_o i_o have_v put_v my_o left_a hand_n under_o thy_o head_n and_o with_o my_o right_a hand_n i_o have_v embrace_v thou_o can_v 2._o but_o lest_o the_o

thou_o need_v that_o by_o thy_o inward_a exercise_n i_o shall_v hold_v thou_o humble_a if_o my_o comfort_n be_v always_o present_a with_o thou_o thou_o will_v think_v thy_o heaven_n &_o permanent_a city_n be_v on_o the_o earth_n &_o so_o cease_v to_o inquire_v for_o a_o better_a to_o come_v thou_o will_v take_v the_o place_n of_o thy_o banishment_n for_o thy_o home_n and_o the_o earnest_n for_o the_o principal_a sum_n which_o i_o have_v promise_v thou_o consider_v this_o wise_o with_o thyself_o that_o albeit_o i_o laugh_v not_o alike_o on_o thou_o at_o all_o time_n &_o fill_v thou_o not_o always_o with_o my_o joy_n yet_o i_o always_o love_v thou_o for_o who_o i_o love_v i_o love_v unto_o the_o end_n if_o i_o close_o the_o door_n of_o my_o chamber_n upon_o thou_o it_o be_v not_o to_o

to_o stir_v thou_o up_o to_o seek_v i_o &_o if_o sometime_o i_o seem_v to_o go_v from_o thou_o it_o be_v to_o provoke_v thou_o to_o follow_v i_o that_o thou_o may_v make_v haste_n from_o the_o earth_n to_o heaven_n where_o thou_o shall_v enjoy_v i_o without_o intermission_n be_v joseph_n so_o wise_a as_o to_o conceal_v his_o tender_a affection_n from_o his_o brethren_n till_o he_o bring_v they_o

love_n manifest_a to_o they_o and_o with_o my_o endless_a mercy_n embrace_v they_o the_o soul_n suffer_v i_o yet_o once_o again_o lord_n to_o speak_v unto_o thou_o that_o thou_o may_v answer_v i_o and_o i_o shall_v complain_v no_o more_o if_o we_o see_v that_o such_o be_v our_o disposition_n as_o thy_o holy_a word_n do_v require_v in_o we_o than_o shall_v thy_o comfort_n rejoice_v we_o but_o alas_o how_o far_o be_o i_o from_o that_o which_o i_o shall_v be_v my_o strength_n be_v enfeeble_v therefore_o do_v my_o inordinate_a affection_n ofttimes_o overcharge_v i_o if_o i_o turn_v i_o to_o

it_o not_o i_o be_o trouble_v also_o with_o doubt_n army_n of_o fear_n and_o sorrow_n be_v against_o i_o &_o all_o through_o weakness_n of_o my_o faith_n for_o partly_o for_o want_v of_o that_o

as_o if_o they_o be_v just_a accusation_n and_o partly_o for_o want_v of_o that_o apprehend_n and_o apply_v virtue_n that_o be_v in_o faith_n i_o be_o spoil_v of_o the_o comfort_n that_o thy_o word_n

be_v weary_a of_o the_o servitude_n of_o thy_o sin_n if_o thou_o do_v seek_v comfort_n in_o my_o word_n &_o can_v find_v none_o of_o these_o at_o the_o first_o as_o thou_o will_v yet_o remember_v i_o
