therefore_o purge_v your_o heart_n you_o wavering-minded_n as_o if_o he_o shall_v say_v the_o reason_n why_o you_o be_v not_o stable_n be_v because_o you_o be_v not_o cleanse_v from_o these_o

etc._n the_o reason_n why_o there_o be_v no_o constancy_n in_o their_o speech_n life_n and_o action_n be_v because_o within_o they_o be_v very_a corruption_n that_o be_v the_o sin_n that_o be_v

have_v in_o hand_n now_o the_o reason_n why_o the_o lord_n will_v not_o repent_v be_v because_o he_o be_v strong_a to_o make_v this_o appear_v to_o you_o purpose_n you_o must_v know_v that_o three_o thing_n must_v concur_v to_o make_v a_o resolution_n strong_a first_o there_o must_v be_v some_o reason_n that_o must_v move_v he_o second_o there_o must_v be_v a_o inclination_n of_o the_o will_n to_o it_o three_o it_o must_v be_v often_o renew_v first_o i_o say_v there_o must_v be_v some_o reason_n that_o must_v move_v he_o but_o if_o that_o be_v all_o he_o will_v not_o resolve_v therefore_o he_o must_v have_v a_o inclination_n of_o the_o will_n to_o it_o both_o these_o when_o they_o concur_v they_o make_v the_o resolution_n up_o when_o the_o understanding_n be_v convince_v and_o the_o will_v incline_v the_o understanding_n say_v there_o be_v reason_n for_o it_o and_o the_o will_n say_v it_o be_v good_a than_o this_o make_v up_o the_o resolution_n as_o first_o when_o a_o man_n have_v any_o reason_n to_o move_v he_o to_o any_o action_n and_o it_o be_v a_o strong_a reason_n so_o that_o he_o answer_v all_o objection_n that_o he_o meet_v with_o now_o the_o resolution_n continue_v firm_a but_o if_o his_o reason_n be_v not_o sufficient_a but_o he_o meet_v with_o objection_n that_o be_v strong_a than_o the_o first_o principle_n be_v take_v away_o the_o resolution_n grow_v flaggy_a and_o weak_a and_o so_o be_v it_o in_o the_o other_o also_o when_o a_o man_n have_v a_o desire_n to_o any_o thing_n if_o it_o be_v so_o strong_a that_o nothing_o be_v strong_a than_o it_o that_o can_v overtop_v and_o over-rule_v it_o than_o he_o go_v on_o without_o any_o impediment_n but_o if_o it_o be_v weak_a so_o that_o a_o strong_a desire_n can_v come_v and_o overballance_v it_o than_o the_o second_o principle_n be_v demolish_v and_o there_o be_v a_o end_n of_o this_o resolution_n so_o that_o let_v the_o reason_n on_o which_o we_o fix_v it_o be_v strong_a and_o let_v the_o inclination_n which_o must_v concur_v be_v fix_v and_o strong_a and_o then_o the_o resolution_n will_v be_v accordidg_n but_o i_o add_v the_o three_o that_o there_o must_v be_v a_o renew_n of_o this_o for_o though_o the_o resolution_n be_v well_o build_v yet_o to_o make_v it_o constant_a it_o must_v still_o be_v renew_v for_o there_o be_v some_o work_n which_o must_v have_v a_o three_o and_o four_o hand_n to_o go_v over_o they_o or_o else_o they_o will_v fall_v and_o moulder_v away_o and_o this_o be_v the_o nature_n of_o our_o resolution_n also_o it_o be_v not_o the_o resolution_n of_o a_o day_n or_o two_o that_o will_v serve_v the_o turn_n for_o the_o nature_n of_o man_n be_v subject_a to_o such_o weakness_n that_o except_o our_o resolution_n be_v go_v over_o and_o over_o again_o they_o shrink_v and_o come_v to_o nothing_o therefore_o the_o thing_n that_o case_v unconstancy_n be_v one_o of_o these_o three_o either_o weakness_n of_o reason_n that_o set_v thou_o on_o work_n or_o weakness_n of_o the_o inclination_n and_o desire_n or_o else_o not_o renew_v of_o this_o now_o when_o you_o have_v find_v out_o the_o cause_n of_o weakness_n you_o may_v easy_o find_v out_o the_o mean_n to_o make_v you_o resolute_a in_o well_o do_v as_o first_o labour_v to_o get_v strong_a reason_n for_o what_o you_o resolve_v on_o the_o want_n of_o this_o be_v the_o cause_n of_o the_o mutability_n of_o the_o second_o ground_n it_o want_v depth_n of_o earth_n that_o be_v the_o seed_n be_v good_a and_o the_o earth_n be_v good_a but_o it_o be_v not_o deep_a enough_o and_o the_o strength_n of_o the_o sun_n cause_v it_o to_o wither_v away_o so_o when_o we_o shall_v have_v good_a purpose_n and_o resolution_n and_o they_o have_v not_o root_n enough_o that_o be_v when_o he_o

she_o will_v take_v no_o denial_n so_o be_v it_o with_o all_o our_o resolution_n when_o they_o have_v this_o depth_n of_o earth_n therefore_o the_o best_a way_n be_v to_o consider_v and_o forecast_v
