unto_o a_o matter_n then_o another_o and_o one_o scripture_n may_v yield_v more_o comfort_n against_o death_n then_o another_o which_o be_v grant_v then_o let_v i_o say_v for_o this_o text_n that_o it_o do_v so_o prepare_v or_o rather_o resolve_v the_o faithful_a so_o perfume_v their_o grave_n which_o be_v their_o bed_n esay_n 57.2_o that_o they_o know_v themselves_o to_o be_v the_o saint_n and_o servant_n of_o god_n and_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n bear_v witness_n unto_o they_o that_o they_o be_v his_o rom._n 8.16_o yea_o his_o dear_a darling_n and_o precious_a jewel_n they_o then_o

who_o as_o the_o apostle_n say_v be_v advantage_n to_o he_o both_o in_o life_n and_o death_n phil._n 1.21_o this_o make_v the_o saint_n with_o old_a simeon_n ready_a to_o cry_v lord_n now_o let_v thou_o thy_o servant_n depart_v in_o peace_n according_a to_o thy_o word_n for_o my_o eye_n have_v see_v thy_o salvation_n now_o the_o saint_n have_v the_o same_o object_n to_o look_v upon_o and_o the_o same_o subject_a to_o speak_v on_o and_o must_v not_o they_o then_o be_v precious_a who_o shall_v be_v heir_n of_o salvation_n such_o honour_n have_v all_o the_o saint_n of_o who_o happy_a state_n and_o condition_n my_o text_n here_o speak_v let_v i_o therefore_o say_v thus_o much_o of_o this_o portion_n of_o scripture_n that_o it_o be_v very_o seasonable_a for_o the_o occasion_n and_o very_o suitable_a to_o his_o person_n that_o here_o lie_v before_o we_o of_o who_o i_o doubt_v not_o to_o pronounce_v he_o the_o faithful_a st._n &_o servant_n of_o jesus_n christ_n and_o therefore_o precious_a in_o the_o sight_n of_o god_n now_o come_v we_o to_o the_o work_n we_o have_v in_o hand_n that_o so_o we_o may_v see_v how_o this_o text_n take_v place_n in_o point_n of_o coherence_n with_o tha_z rest_n of_o the_o psalm_n the_o voice_n of_o thanksgiving_n do_v with_o a_o spiritual_a trumpet_n soundforth_o the_o praise_n of_o god_n in_o this_o psalm_n wherein_o david_n who_o be_v the_o sweet_a singer_n of_o israel_n have_v many_o note_n of_o thankful_a remembrance_n for_o the_o manifold_a deliverance_n that_o god_n have_v vouchsafe_v unto_o he_o but_o more_o particular_o he_o instance_n in_o that_o mercy_n that_o the_o lord_n show_v in_o keep_v he_o from_o saul_n who_o hunt_v after_o his_o life_n in_o the_o desert_n of_o maon_n and_o in_o the_o 3._o verse_n he_o tell_v we_o that_o when_o the_o sorrow_n of_o death_n have_v compass_v he_o round_o about_o than_o he_o begin_v to_o lay_v hold_n on_o god_n assure_v himself_o that_o neither_o saul_n nor_o any_o of_o his_o argent_n shall_v either_o catch_v or_o kill_v he_o without_o that_o divine_a permission_n which_o do_v watch_v over_o he_o and_o there_o fore_o he_o will_v put_v his_o life_n into_o the_o hand_n of_o god_n and_o upon_o that_o very_a ground_n he_o will_v set_v up_o his_o rest_n which_o he_o do_v in_o the_o 7._o verse_n return_v o_o my_o soul_n unto_o thy_o rest_n and_o because_o they_o be_v unworthy_a of_o future_a blessing_n who_o be_v not_o thankful_a for_o former_a he_o therefore_o come_v in_o the_o 12._o &_o 13._o verse_n with_o his_o quid_fw-la retribuam_fw-la domino_fw-la what_o shall_v i_o render_v to_o the_o lord_n for_o all_o his_o mercy_n then_o the_o cup_n of_o salvation_n must_v be_v mention_v and_o the_o vow_n must_v be_v pay_v make_v my_o text_n the_o reason_n of_o all_o this_o because_o the_o lord_n will_v take_v such_o care_n both_o of_o the_o body_n and_o soul_n of_o the_o life_n and_o death_n of_o his_o saint_n that_o whether_o he_o preserve_v they_o from_o

the_o faithful_a that_o they_o be_v right_o dear_a and_o precious_a in_o the_o sight_n of_o god_n and_o thus_o much_o shall_v suffice_v for_o the_o analysis_n of_o the_o whole_a psalm_n and_o the_o particular_a sense_n and_o meaning_n of_o the_o text_n itself_o now_o it_o remain_v that_o we_o take_v the_o text_n asunder_o and_o note_n unto_o you_o the_o divident_fw-la branch_n thereof_o 1_o

thy_o life_n say_v they_o be_v worth_a ten_o thousand_o of_o we_o so_o indeed_o one_o faithful_a servant_n of_o the_o lord_n be_v worth_a ten_o thousand_o other_o in_o the_o sight_n of_o god_n for_o
