have_v begin_v to_o resolve_v to_o follow_v the_o lord_n in_o his_o pure_a way_n of_o holiness_n thus_o open_v unto_o you_o in_o the_o light_n though_o to_o the_o loss_n of_o all_o and_o though_o it_o

your_o soul_n feel_v some_o touching_n of_o that_o heavenly_a life_n &_o joy_n which_o for_o the_o time_n exceed_v all_o thing_n that_o this_o world_n can_v afford_v and_o whensoever_o you_o come_v

that_o be_v not_o much_o say_v the_o consulter_n and_o this_o be_v but_o a_o small_a matter_n there_o be_v other_o that_o do_v great_a thing_n than_o this_o and_o such_o like_a reason_n enter_v the_o

though_o thou_o desire_v it_o but_o be_v drive_v out_o and_o keep_v out_o with_o a_o flame_a sword_n that_o turn_v every_o way_n against_o thou_o and_o here_o be_v now_o a_o ground_n lay_v for_o doubt_n and_o question_n of_o a_o high_a nature_n than_o before_o to_o raise_v in_o thou_o for_o before_o thou_o doubt_v of_o the_o truth_n itself_o whether_o it_o be_v the_o truth_n but_o now_o have_v taste_v of_o it_o and_o receive_v a_o convincement_n of_o it_o and_o yet_o let_v forth_o thy_o mind_n from_o it_o after_o other_o lover_n &_o thy_o ear_n after_o the_o voice_n of_o the_o

feel_v again_o what_o thou_o have_v feel_v but_o doubt_v &_o fear_v that_o thou_o shall_v never_o see_v nor_o feel_v nor_o enjoy_v the_o like_a again_o and_o now_o thou_o wish_v o_o that_o thou_o have_v stand_v in_o the_o cross_n to_o thy_o own_o will_n &_o that_o thou_o have_v deny_v thyself_o that_o thou_o may_v not_o thus_o have_v lose_v the_o sight_n and_o sense_n of_o thy_o soul_n beloe_v and_o now_o thou_o see_v by_o woeful_a experience_n whence_o doubt_n and_o fear_n and_o sorrow_n do_v arise_v even_o thy_o join_n with_o the_o enemy_n who_o bring_v forth_o reason_n against_o the_o

thou_o and_o bring_v thou_o into_o true_a brokenness_n of_o heart_n and_o contriteness_n of_o spirit_n and_o as_o thou_o come_v to_o know_v that_o state_n than_o thou_o have_v something_o to_o offer_v to_o the_o lord_n of_o his_o own_o prepare_v which_o will_v be_v far_o more_o acceptable_a to_o he_o then_o a_o multitude_n of_o word_n &_o preformance_n &_o duty_n so_o call_v and_o as_o thou_o in_o the_o true_a lowliness_n of_o mind_n do_v come_v before_o the_o lord_n and_o offer_v up_o this_o offering_n god_n will_v hear_v in_o heaven_n and_o will_v answer_v the_o cry_n of_o the_o poor_a and_o needy_a soul_n that_o can_v be_v satisfy_v without_o his_o presence_n and_o he_o will_v remember_v his_o mercy_n of_o old_a which_o never_o fail_v for_o his_o seed_n sake_n which_o be_v not_o yet_o bring_v forth_o in_o thou_o and_o when_o god_n do_v again_o shine_v forth_o unto_o thou_o and_o make_v his_o power_n know_v thou_o must_v expect_v it_o must_v be_v in_o judgement_n because_o of_o

be_v with_o more_o sharpness_n and_o bitterness_n to_o the_o carnal_a part_n than_o before_o it_o be_v but_o just_a it_o shall_v be_v so_o it_o be_v the_o lord_n let_v he_o do_v what_o he_o will_v he_o see_v more_o cause_n now_o than_o before_o by_o how_o much_o more_o thou_o have_v sin_v against_o his_o goodness_n but_o bow_v to_o his_o judgement_n bear_v his_o indignation_n as_o micah_n say_v because_o thou_o have_v sin_v against_o he_o mic._n 7.9_o and_o as_o thou_o yield_v to_o his_o righteous_a judgement_n thou_o will_v know_v the_o come_n to_o the_o midst_n of_o they_o in_o which_o the_o mercy_n be_v remember_v and_o make_v manifest_a and_o therefore_o the_o hasty_a and_o impatient_a that_o flee_v the_o judgement_n as_o soon_o as_o it_o begin_v a_o little_a to_o appear_v in_o they_o they_o never_o find_v the_o true_a deliverance_n but_o get_v ease_v another_o way_n which_o last_v but_o for_o a_o moment_n but_o they_o who_o come_v to_o know_v a_o thorough_a work_n wrought_v in_o their_o earth_n and_o the_o floor_n thorough_o purge_v they_o come_v to_o know_v the_o true_a and_o last_a peace_n to_o their_o immortal_a soul_n and_o although_o this_o be_v not_o obtain_v by_o

and_o they_o find_v the_o return_v with_o sheaf_n as_o the_o prophet_n say_v psal_n 126.5_o 6._o they_o that_o sow_v in_o tear_n shall_v reap_v in_o joy_n they_o go_v forth_o say_v he_o with_o weep_v and_o bear_v precious_a seed_n but_o they_o shall_v return_v with_o joy_n and_o bring_v their_o sheaf_n and_o as_o christ_n say_v they_o that_o forsake_v father_n and_o mother_n wife_n and_o child_n house_n or_o land_n yea_o or_o their_o own_o life_n for_o my_o sake_n shall_v have_v a_o hundred_o fold_n in_o this_o time_n and_o in_o the_o
that_o matter_n that_o he_o will_v according_a to_o his_o promise_n raise_v they_o up_o at_o the_o last_o day_n and_o will_v give_v unto_o every_o seed_n his_o own_o body_n even_o as_o please_v he_o and_o the_o creature_n be_v not_o careful_a then_o about_o such_o foolish_a question_n and_o doubt_n as_o to_o inquire_v what_o manner_n of_o body_n god_n will_v give_v they_o but_o leave_v it_o to_o the_o lord_n in_o full_a faith_n that_o he_o will_v raise_v they_o up_o according_a to_o the_o scripture_n and_o so_o here_o all_o thy_o doubt_n will_v flee_v away_o and_o be_v answer_v with_o that_o that_o be_v before_o they_o as_o it_o come_v to_o rule_v in_o the_o creature_n and_o death_n that_o be_v the_o root_n &_o ground_n of_o they_o come_v to_o be_v swallow_v up_o in_o the_o victory_n of_o the_o life_n and_o so_o as_o thou_o feel_v thy_o part_n in_o this_o resurrection_n all_o the_o doubt_n and_o fear_n of_o thy_o own_o condition_n will_v he_o answer_v effectual_o which_o can_v

it_o witness_v for_o thou_o for_o that_o there_o be_v a_o state_n in_o which_o there_o be_v a_o danger_n of_o fall_v away_o thy_o daily_a experience_n teach_v thou_o to_o thy_o sorrow_n and_o beside_o christ_n say_v every_o branch_n in_o i_o that_o bear_v not_o fruit_n must_v be_v cut_v off_o and_o the_o many_o example_n in_o scripture_n of_o they_o that_o depart_v from_o the_o faith_n and_o make_v

thou_o must_v take_v heed_n and_o so_o may_v thou_o come_v to_o the_o crown_n and_o seal_v and_o assurance_n and_o a_o establishment_n in_o the_o kingdom_n where_o thou_o shall_v no_o more_o go_v

will_v then_o be_v without_o doubt_n or_o fear_n give_v up_o in_o the_o will_n of_o god_n to_o do_v and_o to_o suffer_v all_o thing_n according_a to_o his_o bless_a will_n and_o here_o be_v the_o

when_o thou_o will_v be_v strong_a thou_o become_v feeble_a and_o when_o thou_o will_v in_o some_o measure_n obey_v thy_o own_o consultation_n stand_v in_o the_o way_n and_o hinder_v thou_o and_o the_o more_o thou_o increase_v in_o knowledge_n in_o this_o state_n the_o more_o thou_o increase_v thy_o sorrow_n and_o condemnation_n so_o that_o sometime_o thou_o be_v ready_a to_o wish_v thou_o

but_o alas_o poor_a soul_n consider_v the_o way_n to_o know_v more_o be_v to_o be_v obedient_a to_o a_o little_a which_o thou_o have_v receive_v and_o then_o that_o mist_n and_o fog_n of_o thy_o own_o
