in_o the_o day_n of_o thy_o youth_n while_o the_o evil_a day_n come_v not_o nor_o the_o year_n draw_v nigh_o when_o thou_o shall_v say_v i_o have_v no_o pleasure_n in_o they_o london_n print_v by_o william_n dugard_n in_o the_o year_n mdcl_o to_o my_o love_a parishioner_n and_o other_o friend_n in_o london_n or_o elsewhere_o dear_a friend_n i_o here_o present_v you_o with_o the_o sum_n of_o two_o sermon_n not_o long_o since_o preach_v and_o deliver_v by_o word_n of_o mouth_n to_o you_o of_o my_o own_o charge_n if_o any_o inquire_v what_o put_v i_o upon_o this_o subject_n the_o entrance_n of_o these_o sermon_n will_v resolve_n you_o in_o that_o particular_a if_o any_o ask_v what_o move_v i_o to_o put_v it_o to_o the_o press_n take_v my_o answer_n now_o it_o be_v not_o any_o by_o end_n it_o be_v not_o any_o high_a thought_n of_o any_o thing_n that_o be_v my_o own_o in_o this_o discourse_n but_o i_o consider_v 1._o the_o truth_n be_v divine_a and_o sound_a 2._o the_o handle_n of_o they_o be_v seasonable_a in_o these_o day_n wherein_o there_o be_v so_o much_o miscarriage_n of_o youth_n and_o i_o will_v i_o have_v not_o need_v to_o say_v it_o so_o much_o neglect_v in_o they_o that_o have_v the_o oversight_n of_o youth_n in_o these_o sermon_n both_o be_v concern_v youth_n at_o the_o first_o hand_n and_o other_o by_o necessary_a consequence_n 3._o i_o know_v that_o word_n have_v wing_n and_o fly_v away_o almost_o assoon_o as_o they_o be_v utter_v but_o it_o be_v true_a litera_fw-la scripta_fw-la manet_fw-la if_o any_o forget_v what_o be_v speak_v by_o repare_v to_o the_o book_n their_o memory_n will_v be_v holpen_v 4._o i_o have_v also_o many_o friend_n that_o hear_v not_o these_o sermon_n preach_v who_o spiritual_a good_a yet_o i_o desire_v also_o to_o further_o and_o to_o transscribe_v so_o many_o copy_n it_o will_v be_v tedious_a i_o think_v it_o therefore_o the_o more_o compendious_a way_n though_o more_o costly_a to_o put_v it_o to_o the_o press_n upon_o my_o own_o charge_n and_o so_o to_o have_v the_o whole_a impression_n at_o my_o own_o dispose_n by_o mean_n whereof_o i_o may_v give_v copy_n abroad_o as_o i_o shall_v see_v cause_n and_o so_o you_o have_v the_o clear_a reason_n of_o what_o be_v do_v it_o be_v intend_v out_o of_o love_n to_o you_o and_o your_o good_a my_o aim_n in_o it_o concern_v the_o sermon_n themselves_o i_o will_v not_o say_v any_o thing_n only_o 1._o if_o any_o be_v less_o acquaint_v with_o business_n of_o this_o naeture_n i_o give_v they_o to_o understand_v that_o what_o i_o say_v to_o young_a man_n i_o mean_v it_o also_o to_o young_a woman_n and_o maiden_n follow_v therein_o the_o custom_n of_o the_o scripture_n which_o ordinary_o especial_o in_o thing_n which_o equal_o concern_v both_o comprehend'_v both_o sex_n under_o the_o male_a as_o i_o may_v show_v you_o in_o many_o example_n if_o it_o be_v needful_a 2._o these_o sermon_n contain_v matter_n suitable_a to_o old_a and_o young_a i_o desire_v you_o each_o of_o you_o to_o take_v your_o proper_a portion_n and_o not_o as_o it_o be_v too_o frequent_a in_o the_o world_n every_o man_n to_o get_v insight_n into_o other_o man_n duty_n while_o they_o neglect_v to_o know_v their_o own_o to_o conclude_v if_o you_o will_v accept_v read_v apply_v and_o make_v use_n of_o what_o be_v here_o present_v to_o you_o and_o the_o god_n of_o
