moreover_o o_o my_o soul_n will_v thou_o not_o grant_v that_o sorrow_n be_v excessive_a which_o cause_v thy_o thought_n to_o run_v into_o the_o grave_a and_o hinder_v they_o from_o ascend_v into_o heaven_n and_o to_o have_v many_o self-piercing_a and_o self-tormenting_a thought_n of_o thy_o dead_a for_o one_o serious_a and_o heart-affecting_a thought_n thou_o have_v of_o the_o live_n and_o eternal_a god_n and_o which_o make_v thy_o heart_n as_o cold_a in_o all_o thy_o duty_n unto_o god_n as_o the_o body_n of_o thy_o dead_a relation_n be_v in_o its_o grave_n beside_o be_v not_o thy_o sorrow_n too_o much_o when_o it_o hinder_v thou_o from_o spiritual_o rejoice_v in_o god_n and_o give_v thanks_o to_o he_o for_o all_o the_o mercy_n which_o in_o thy_o sorrow_n thou_o do_v overlook_v especial_o when_o let_v thy_o condition_n be_v what_o it_o will_v as_o to_o temporal_n thou_o have_v much_o more_o cause_n to_o bless_v god_n for_o spiritual_n and_o eternal_a mercy_n than_o to_o grieve_v for_o the_o loss_n of_o temporal_n add_v to_o this_o o_o my_o soul_n and_o then_o judge_v that_o thou_o grieve_v so_o much_o for_o thy_o dead_a that_o thou_o have_v leave_v off_o sorrow_v for_o the_o misery_n of_o the_o church_n of_o god_n and_o lose_v much_o of_o thy_o little_a remain_a time_n wherein_o thou_o have_v many_o duty_n to_o perform_v many_o grace_n to_o get_v and_o more_o degree_n thereof_o many_o sin_n to_o mortify_v and_o subdue_v many_o temptation_n to_o resist_v a_o deceitful_a heart_n to_o watch_v and_o search_v child_n and_o servant_n to_o instruct_v and_o teach_v and_o holy_a preparation_n to_o be_v make_v for_o death_n and_o another_o eternal_a world_n and_o while_o thou_o sorrow_v all_o these_o be_v neglect_v be_v it_o not_o too_o much_o by_o this_o time_n and_o from_o these_o evidence_n o_o my_o soul_n be_v thou_o not_o convince_v that_o thy_o sorrow_n for_o thy_o dead_a have_v be_v and_o still_o be_v excessive_a sorrow_n that_o thou_o have_v and_o do_v transgress_v the_o bound_n of_o christian_a moderation_n and_o thereby_o offend_v thy_o holy_a lord_n wrong_v thyself_o discredit_v that_o religion_n thou_o do_v profess_v discourage_v the_o good_a and_o cast_v a_o stumbling-block_n in_o the_o way_n of_o the_o ungodly_a and_o will_v thou_o still_o proceed_v herein_o can_v not_o thou_o sensible_o feel_v the_o stroke_n of_o his_o hand_n and_o yet_o patient_o submit_v unto_o his_o will_n how_o long_o will_v thou_o thus_o be_v cast_v down_o how_o long_o will_v thou_o thus_o be_v disquiet_v within_o i_o be_v thy_o relation_n fall_v asleep_o and_o be_v thy_o grace_n slumber_v be_v thy_o faith_n as_o dead_a in_o thy_o heart_n as_o thy_o relation_n be_v in_o the_o grave_a shall_v nature_n wôrk_v thus_o strong_o in_o thou_o and_o grace_n so_o feeble_o if_o natural_a affection_n be_v exorbitant_a have_v not_o god_n implant_v grace_n in_o thou_o that_o it_o may_v correct_v moderate_a and_o govern_v they_o be_v thou_o only_o a_o rational_a and_o not_o a_o believe_a soul_n yea_o do_v thou_o thus_o immoderate_o grieve_v as_o if_o thou_o be_v neither_o believe_v nor_o rational_a in_o thy_o sorrow_n if_o there_o be_v nothing_o in_o the_o common_a book_n of_o corrupt_a nature_n that_o thou_o can_v read_v but_o what_o do_v add_v grief_n unto_o thy_o grief_n yet_o be_v there_o not_o enough_o in_o that_o special_a book_n of_o sacred_a scripture_n that_o may_v turn_v thy_o sorrow_n into_o joy_n for_o those_o of_o thy_o that_o sleep_n in_o jesus_n or_o have_v thou_o throw_v it_o by_o and_o neglect_v to_o look_v and_o search_v into_o it_o or_o if_o thou_o read_v do_v thou_o understand_v what_o thou_o read_v or_o do_v thou_o consider_v what_o thou_o do_v understand_v or_o believe_v with_o a_o unshaken_a faith_n what_o thou_o do_v consider_v while_o thy_o sorrow_n do_v continue_v so_o excessive_a have_v not_o god_n reveal_v therein_o such_o certain_a truth_n concern_v the_o body_n of_o those_o that_o die_v in_o the_o lord_n such_o glorious_a thing_n concern_v their_o separate_a soul_n for_o the_o present_a such_o wonderful_a work_n that_o he_o will_v hereafter_o do_v in_o reunite_a the_o same_o

and_o hope_v and_o love_n do_v thou_o sit_v here_o and_o sigh_v and_o sob_v and_o grieve_v and_o groan_n as_o tho'_o those_o thou_o mourn_v for_o be_v for_o ever_o lose_v as_o if_o they_o be_v so_o

relation_n now_o decease_v as_o a_o sleep_a in_o jesus_n and_o if_o thou_o mourn_v because_o she_o be_v dead_a yet_o try_v if_o thou_o can_v mourn_v because_o she_o sleep_v in_o the_o lord_n for_o this_o do_v sorrow_n fill_v thy_o heart_n or_o may_v thou_o not_o rejoice_v that_o be_v dead_a she_o so_o sleep_v for_o if_o she_o sleep_v in_o jesus_n shall_v she_o not_o do_v well_o and_o if_o she_o shall_v do_v well_o shall_v thou_o not_o rather_o rejoice_v than_o thus_o lament_v and_o grieve_v when_o do_v thou_o sorrow_n when_o she_o go_v to_o bed_n and_o sleep_v and_o take_v her_o natural_a rest_n and_o now_o she_o sleep_v in_o jesus_n be_v she_o not_o at_o rest_n in_o her_o grave_a as_o in_o her_o bed_n from_o all_o trouble_n from_o man_n from_o sickness_n and_o pain_n and_o from_o all_o sense_n thereof_o from_o all_o worldly_a care_n and_o pierce_a sorrow_n that_o do_v usual_o accompany_v those_o care_n and_o if_o her_o death_n be_v but_o a_o sleep_n how_o easy_a be_v it_o

her_o life_n thou_o see_v she_o sick_a and_o can_v not_o sleep_v this_o be_v a_o grief_n and_o trouble_n to_o thou_o will_v it_o not_o much_o more_o have_v add_v to_o thy_o sorrow_n to_o see_v she_o
