this_o that_o it_o will_v put_v he_o by_o his_o ordinary_n it_o will_v make_v he_o to_o keep_v himself_o within_o rooff_o and_o wall_n it_o will_v make_v he_o forget_v to_o keep_v within_o door_n it_o will_v make_v he_o to_o cry_v out_o aloud_o what_o mean_v that_o may_v you_o say_v to_o cry_v i_o will_v tell_v you_o it_o import_v these_o three_o or_o four_o thing_n first_o it_o import_v seriousness_n it_o may_v be_v that_o the_o man_n have_v a_o form_n of_o word_n but_o now_o he_o be_v put_v by_o it_o will_v the_o lord_n say_v to_o the_o man_n that_o have_v nothing_o but_o a_o form_n

cry_v to_o the_o man_n at_o a_o distance_n that_o you_o can_v speak_v quiet_o too_o when_o a_o man_n be_v put_v to_o cry_n it_o import_v that_o god_n be_v far_o from_o that_o man_n as_o to_o his_o sense_n at_o least_o it_o import_v that_o soul_n be_v under_o much_o feel_v distance_n from_o gods_n presence_n three_o cry_v it_o import_v some_o great_a weight_n on_o another_o upon_o the_o soul_n if_o a_o man_n be_v travel_v upon_o a_o hill_n and_o a_o heavy_a burden_n on_o his_o back_n and_o his_o strength_n fail_v he_o will_v he_o not_o cry_v for_o help_n so_o cry_v import_v a_o sore_a

be_v a_o heavy_a burden_n to_o moses_n so_o a_o loud_a cry_n to_o the_o lord_n and_o therefore_o say_v the_o lord_n exod._n 14.15_o wherefore_o cry_v thou_o unto_o i_o four_o cry_v import_v apparent_a

if_o they_o see_v it_o they_o will_v be_v put_v to_o cry_v as_o well_o as_o other_o but_o a_o three_o note_n that_o i_o will_v speak_v a_o word_n too_o be_v this_o that_o it_o be_v no_o small_a business_n or_o difficulty_n for_o a_o christian_n to_o get_v a_o prayer_n send_v up_o to_o god_n in_o the_o day_n of_o his_o sore_a trouble_n or_o affliction_n now_o i_o shall_v let_v you_o see_v the_o difficulty_n that_o a_o christian_n have_v to_o direct_v his_o prayer_n to_o god_n in_o the_o day_n of_o his_o sore_a trouble_n in_o these_o three_o or_o four_o thing_n first_o because_o sore_o trouble_v fill_v a_o man_n heart_n with_o prejudices_fw-la at_o christ_n this_o you_o see_v clear_a in_o the_o 73._o psalm_n and_o 13._o verse_n when_o david_n see_v the_o prosperity_n of_o the_o wicked_a and_o the_o affliction_n of_o the_o godly_a he_o be_v offend_v at_o it_o be_v this_o all_o the_o kindness_n i_o get_v for_o be_v godly_a to_o be_v daily_o in_o affliction_n while_o the_o wicked_a prosper_n in_o the_o world_n very_o i_o think_v that_o i_o have_v be_v a_o very_a great_a fool_n for_o very_o i_o have_v cleanse_v my_o heart_n in_o vain_a and_o wash_v my_o hand_n in_o innocency_n for_o all_o day_n long_o have_v i_o be_v plague_v and_o chasten_v every_o morning_n a_o man_n in_o such_o a_o frame_n as_o that_o will_v find_v it_o a_o great_a business_n and_o no_o small_a matter_n for_o he_o to_o get_v his_o prayer_n direct_v to_o god._n second_o it_o be_v a_o great_a difficulty_n for_o a_o man_n in_o such_o a_o case_n to_o direct_v his_o prayer_n to_o god_n because_o misbelief_n present_v the_o work_n of_o prayer_n to_o the_o man_n as_o useless_a when_o a_o man_n be_v under_o a_o prevail_a power_n of_o unbelief_n that_o temptation_n will_v tell_v he_o his_o pray_v will_v be_v but_o in_o vain_a be_v it_o a_o small_a matter_n for_o a_o man_n under_o sore_o trouble_v to_o pray_v then_o think_v you_o no_o indeed_o it_o be_v a_o great_a business_n to_o win_v at_o it_o to_o pour_v out_o his_o heart_n to_o god_n in_o such_o a_o case_n three_o it_o be_v a_o great_a matter_n for_o a_o man_n to_o direct_v his_o prayer_n to_o god_n while_n under_o sore_o trouble_v and_o that_o because_o oftentimes_o sore_o trouble_v be_v accompany_v with_o terror_n from_o god_n and_o when_o the_o lord_n be_v not_o accompany_v a_o man_n spirit_n in_o trouble_n it_o be_v meikle_v for_o he_o to_o pray_v indeed_o if_o the_o lord_n spirit_n accompany_v a_o man_n spirit_n though_o it_o be_v under_o sore_o trouble_v it_o be_v not_o meikle_v for_o he_o to_o pray_v to_o god._n ay_o prayer_n will_v be_v easie_n but_o after_o the_o terror_n of_o god_n come_v with_o the_o affliction_n and_o sore_o trouble_v you_o see_v what_o job_n say_v job_n 6.4_o the_o terror_n of_o god_n set_v themselves_o in_o battle_n array_n against_o i_o now_o for_o a_o man_n to_o pray_v while_n under_o the_o terror_n of_o god_n be_v no_o small_a difficulty_n four_o it_o must_v be_v a_o great_a matter_n for_o a_o man_n to_o pray_v to_o god_n when_o under_o sore_o trouble_v and_o why_o because_o oftentimes_o sore_o trouble_v bring_v along_v with_o it_o great_a confusion_n and_o distractedness_n of_o spirit_n now_o be_v it_o a_o small_a matter_n think_v you_o to_o pray_v then_o when_o a_o man_n or_o woman_n be_v under_o great_a confusion_n and_o distraction_n of_o spirit_n i_o answer_v with_o job_n 10._o chap._n 15._o verse_n therefore_o see_v thou_o my_o affliction_n say_v he_o in_o time_n of_o sore_a affliction_n it_o be_v no_o small_a matter_n to_o get_v leave_n to_o put_v up_o a_o petition_n or_o bill_n before_o the_o throne_n but_o now_o i_o come_v to_o the_o four_o note_n and_o shall_v but_o speak_v a_o word_n to_o it_o which_o be_v this_o that_o ordinarlie_o these_o duty_n that_o be_v go_v about_o against_o many_a temptation_n and_o over_o the_o belly_n of_o many_a discouragement_n be_v most_o successful_a and_o prosper_v best_a and_o wherefore_o be_v it_o so_o may_v you_o say_v i_o will_v tell_v you_o the_o reason_n of_o it_o in_o these_o three_o thing_n short_o for_o i_o must_v haste_v and_o the_o first_o reason_n i_o will_v give_v you_o of_o it_o be_v this_o that_o these_o duty_n do_v against_o many_a discouragement_n can_v but_o prosper_v best_a and_o why_o because_o they_o proceed_v from_o much_o love_n and_o this_o make_v they_o desirable_a and_o much_o love_n make_v they_o acceptable_a to_o he_o in_o their_o duty_n and_o so_o they_o can_v but_o prosper_v in_o the_o follow_n of_o that_o duty_n when_o they_o in_o that_o piece_n of_o service_n be_v acceptable_a to_o god._n and_o second_o these_o duty_n that_o be_v go_v about_o over_o the_o belly_n of_o much_o discouragement_n as_o they_o be_v do_v in_o much_o love_n so_o likewise_o they_o be_v do_v in_o very_a much_o seriousness_n and_o singleness_n of_o heart_n and_o that_o make_v they_o to_o prosper_v i_o will_v tell_v you_o the_o great_a thing_n that_o make_v duty_n not_o to_o prosper_v in_o your_o hand_n be_v your_o want_n of_o seriousness_n and_o you_o be_v but_o as_o serious_a about_o religion_n as_o you_o be_v for_o your_o daily_a bread_n you_o will_v come_v better_a speed_n in_o duty_n and_o you_o will_v thrive_v well_o in_o religion_n and_o the_o way_n of_o god_n be_v you_o do_v three_o these_o duty_n that_o be_v go_v about_o with_o the_o great_a difficulty_n and_o discouragement_n in_o the_o way_n of_o they_o ordinarlie_o they_o be_v attend_v with_o most_o help_v from_o god._n the_o lord_n will_v not_o leave_v that_o man_n that_o undertake_v his_o duty_n in_o such_o a_o case_n he_o will_v not_o leave_v that_o soul_n that_o for_o his_o sake_n under_o many_o temptation_n undertake_v a_o piece_n of_o work_n for_o he_o that_o man_n be_v sure_a of_o god_n for_o his_o help_n and_o a_o man_n that_o be_v sure_a of_o heaven_n for_o his_o help_n he_o need_v not_o fear_n in_o follow_v of_o his_o duty_n whatever_o be_v in_o his_o way_n for_o he_o shall_v be_v well_o help_v now_o we_o come_v to_o the_o five_o

note_n and_o shall_v speak_v but_o a_o short_a word_n to_o it_o also_o that_o you_o may_v be_v dispatch_v which_o if_o you_o remember_v be_v this_o that_o oftentimes_o the_o trouble_v of_o the_o christian_a amount_n to_o that_o height_n and_o be_v such_o as_o admit_v of_o no_o vacancy_n they_o be_v often_o bring_v to_o their_o night_n of_o trouble_n as_o well_o as_o of_o their_o day_n now_o may_v you_o say_v how_o come_v this_o to_o pass_v i_o will_v tell_v you_o in_o these_o four_o or_o five_o thing_n first_o it_o come_v from_o satan_n malice_n so_o long_o as_o satan_n can_v he_o will_v give_v he_o no_o rest_n there_o be_v no_o rest_n for_o the_o christian_n if_o satan_n can_v hinder_v his_o rest_n he_o will_v do_v it_o and_o if_o he_o can_v take_v away_o the_o night_n rest_n from_o he_o as_o well_o as_o the_o day_n be_v sure_a he_o will_v do_v it_o and_o so_o it_o be_v oftentimes_o from_o satan_n that_o the_o christian_n trouble_v amount_n to_o this_o height_n that_o it_o admit_v of_o no_o vacancy_n second_o it_o come_v from_o the_o sovereign_a hand_n of_o god_n for_o holy_a and_o wise_a end_v know_v to_o himself_o sometime_o the_o lord_n see_v it_o fit_a to_o keep_v they_o in_o continual_a trouble_n that_o he_o may_v melt_v and_o refine_v they_o from_o their_o dross_n there_o be_v some_o metal_n ill_a to_o purge_v and_o therefore_o it_o must_v be_v keep_v long_o in_o the_o furnace_n even_o so_o there_o be_v some_o christian_n that_o must_v be_v keep_v long_o in_o the_o furnace_n of_o affliction_n and_o trouble_v that_o he_o may_v melt_v and_o refine_v they_o there_o till_o their_o dross_n go_v away_o from_o they_o otherways_o he_o will_v not_o continue_v they_o in_o trouble_n for_o the_o end_n and_o fruit_n of_o jacob_n trouble_n be_v to_o purge_v away_o sin_n and_o because_o sin_n be_v ill_o to_o purge_v away_o in_o many_o therefore_o trouble_v must_v continue_v three_o the_o lord_n do_v it_o for_o this_o end_n that_o they_o may_v thereby_o know_v what_o power_n and_o moyen_fw-mi he_o have_v it_o will_v keep_v the_o man_n in_o life_n under_o the_o great_a trouble_n that_o he_o can_v come_v under_o to_o remember_v that_o this_o trouble_v be_v but_o to_o give_v he_o a_o proof_n of_o his_o power_n and_o love_n o_o how_o will_v the_o soul_n under_o trouble_n be_v refresh_v when_o he_o consider_v hereby_o i_o shall_v have_v a_o proof_n of_o his_o never_o fail_a faithfulness_n make_v out_o to_o my_o soul_n what_o otherways_o can_v the_o soul_n say_v that_o see_v he_o notwithstanding_o of_o all_o that_o he_o lay_v on_o still_o keep_v heaven_n for_o his_o friend_n four_o he_o do_v it_o for_o this_o end_n that_o his_o friend_n may_v know_v how_o dangerous_a it_o be_v to_o be_v far_o from_o god._n last_a trouble_n require_v divine_a and_o last_a support_n or_o else_o last_a trouble_n will_v waste_v and_o destroy_v and_o bring_v the_o soul_n in_o a_o dangerous_a case_n and_o last_o he_o do_v it_o to_o keep_v you_o from_o make_v any_o more_o acquaintance_n with_o your_o former_a idol_n a_o man_n under_o sore_a trouble_n will_v not_o ready_o seek_v after_o his_o former_a idol_n for_o he_o know_v they_o will_v do_v he_o no_o good_a and_o therefore_o in_o the_o 14_o of_o hosea_n and_o 3._o verse_n we_o will_v not_o say_v any_o more_o to_o the_o work_n of_o our_o hand_n you_o be_v our_o god_n for_o in_o thou_o the_o fatherless_a find_v mercy_n but_o now_o we_o come_v to_o the_o last_o note_n which_o be_v this_o that_o the_o day_n be_v come_v wherein_o the_o christian_a shall_v speak_v of_o all_o his_o sore_a trouble_n as_o of_o thing_n by-gone_a however_o sad_a they_o be_v for_o the_o time_n yet_o the_o day_n be_v come_v wherein_o they_o shall_v speak_v of_o they_o all_o as_o of_o thing_n past_a and_o go_v there_o be_v these_o five_o or_o six_o sad_a thing_n now_o in_o the_o christian_n lot_n that_o ere_o long_o he_o will_v speak_v of_o they_o as_o of_o thing_n by-gone_a first_o the_o day_n be_v come_v wherein_o the_o christian_a shall_v have_v this_o to_o say_v the_o day_n be_v once_o wherein_o i_o be_v under_o desertion_n and_o a_o sad_a and_o sore_a cloud_n it_o be_v but_o now_o he_o have_v take_v it_o away_o and_o i_o have_v light_n for_o darkness_n for_o he_o have_v write_v his_o name_n upon_o my_o forehead_n and_o now_o i_o see_v no_o more_o dark_o as_o through_o a_o glass_n but_o i_o see_v he_o face_n to_o face_n second_o the_o day_n be_v come_v wherein_o the_o christian_a shall_v have_v this_o to_o say_v the_o day_n be_v once_o when_o i_o be_v under_o sad_a and_o sore_a temptation_n but_o now_o satan_n have_v nothing_o in_o i_o to_o work_v upon_o the_o day_n be_v once_o wherein_o satan_n never_o soon_o knock_v at_o my_o heart_n but_o there_o be_v some_o traitor_n or_o another_o in_o the_o house_n as_o ready_a to_o open_v a_o door_n or_o window_n to_o let_v he_o in_o but_o now_o he_o have_v nothing_o in_o i_o to_o work_v upon_o at_o all_o three_o the_o day_n be_v come_v wherein_o the_o christian_a will_v have_v this_o to_o say_v the_o day_n be_v once_o wherein_o i_o be_v so_o hardly_o pursue_v that_o i_o may_v scarce_o bide_v so_o long_o as_o to_o take_v either_o friend_n or_o kin_n by_o the_o hand_n but_o now_o i_o be_o the_o day_n where_o the_o weary_a be_v at_o rest_n the_o day_n be_v once_o wherein_o i_o have_v neither_o day_n nor_o night_n rest_v but_o now_o i_o may_v rest_v both_o night_n and_o day_n and_o there_o be_v any_o night_n there_o but_o there_o be_v none_o four_o the_o day_n be_v come_v wherein_o the_o christian_a will_v have_v this_o to_o say_v the_o day_n be_v once_o wherein_o i_o be_v a_o man_n very_o much_o reproach_v and_o debase_v but_o now_o he_o have_v wipe_v away_o my_o reproach_n and_o make_v i_o very_o

when_o my_o ten_o finger_n behove_v to_o provide_v for_o my_o dinner_n and_o when_o i_o have_v get_v it_o i_o wist_v not_o well_o where_o i_o be_v to_o lie_v down_o at_o night_n or_o where_o to_o
