you_o i_o of_o possession_n i_o care_v not_o if_o i_o be_v possess_v with_o a_o thousand_o devil_n so_o i_o be_v not_o a_o devil_n to_o myself_o when_o some_o have_v tell_v i_o that_o i_o have_v be_v pray_v for_o i_o will_v answer_v i_o be_v the_o less_o behold_v to_o they_o for_o it_o will_v but_o sink_v i_o the_o deep_a into_o hell_n i_o will_v often_o say_v i_o be_v a_o thousand_o time_n worse_o than_o the_o devil_n for_o the_o devil_n have_v never_o commit_v such_o sin_n as_o i_o have_v for_o i_o have_v commit_v worse_a sin_n than_o the_o sin_n against_o the_o holy-ghost_n some_o will_v answer_v the_o scripture_n speak_v not_o of_o worse_a sin_n and_o can_v you_o be_v guilty_a of_o great_a sin_n than_o the_o scripture_n mention_n yes_o say_v i_o my_o sin_n be_v so_o great_a that_o if_o all_o the_o sin_n of_o all_o the_o devil_n and_o damn_a in_o hell_n and_o all_o the_o reprobate_n on_o earth_n be_v comprehend_v in_o one_o man_n i_o be_v great_a there_o be_v no_o word_n come_v so_o near_o the_o comprehension_n of_o the_o dreadfulness_n of_o my_o condition_n as_o that_o i_o be_o the_o monster_n of_o the_o creation_n in_o this_o word_n i_o much_o delight_v i_o will_v say_v let_v he_o that_o think_v he_o stand_v take_v heed_n lest_o he_o fall_v i_o once_o think_v myself_o to_o stand_v but_o be_o miserable_o fall_v when_o i_o be_v force_v to_o be_v present_a at_o duty_n i_o will_v often_o stop_v my_o ear_n my_o carriage_n be_v very_o rugged_a and_o cross_a contrary_a to_o my_o natural_a temper_n here_o i_o practise_v many_o device_n to_o make_v away_o myself_o sometime_o by_o spider_n as_o before_o sometime_o endeavour_v to_o let_v myself_o blood_n with_o a_o pair_n of_o sharp_a scissors_n and_o so_o bleed_v to_o death_n once_o when_o the_o surgeon_n have_v let_v i_o blood_n i_o go_v up_o into_o a_o chamber_n and_o bolt_v the_o door_n to_o i_o and_o take_v off_o the_o plaster_n and_o tie_v my_o arm_n and_o set_v the_o vein_n a_o bleed_a again_o which_o mrs._n walker_n fear_v run_v up_o stair_n and_o get_v into_o the_o chamber_n to_o i_o i_o see_v she_o come_v in_o run_v into_o the_o lead_n and_o there_o my_o arm_n bleed_v upon_o the_o wall_n now_o say_v i_o you_o may_v see_v there_o be_v the_o blood_n of_o a_o curse_a reprobate_n i_o please_v myself_o often_o with_o contrive_v how_o to_o get_v into_o a_o wood_n and_o die_v there_o and_o one_o morning_n i_o cunning_o get_v out_o from_o my_o cousin_n and_o go_v into_o smithfield_n where_o i_o walk_v up_o and_o down_o a_o great_a while_n and_o know_v not_o what_o to_o do_v at_o last_o i_o try_v to_o hire_v a_o coach_n but_o like_v not_o the_o man_n there_o then_o i_o go_v into_o aldersgate-street_n and_o ask_v a_o coachman_n what_o he_o will_v take_v to_o carry_v i_o to_o barnet_n for_o then_o i_o mean_v to_o go_v into_o a_o wood_n but_o the_o man_n upon_o some_o small_a occasion_n sad_o curse_v and_o swear_v which_o strike_v some_o terror_n into_o i_o what_o think_v i_o must_v such_o as_o this_o be_v my_o companion_n for_o ever_o and_o so_o go_v away_o from_o he_o and_o find_v one_o with_o a_o good_a honest_a look_n and_o with_o he_o i_o agree_v and_o be_v to_o give_v he_o eight_o shilling_n who_o carry_v i_o a_o good_a way_n beyond_o highgate_n and_o as_o i_o go_v along_o i_o think_v be_o i_o now_o go_v to_o converse_v with_o devil_n with_o such_o like_a thought_n as_o these_o i_o be_v discourage_v from_o go_v on_o and_o call_v to_o the_o coachman_n and_o pray_v he_o to_o drive_v back_o again_o and_o tell_v he_o it_o be_v only_o a_o melancholy_a fancy_n by_o these_o and_o several_a other_o way_n i_o think_v to_o put_v a_o end_n to_o my_o life_n but_o the_o watchful_a eye_n of_o the_o lord_n always_o gracious_o prevent_v i_o when_o i_o hear_v any_o dreadful_a thing_n cry_v about_o the_o street_n in_o book_n i_o will_v say_v oh_o what_o fearful_a thing_n will_v be_v put_v out_o of_o i_o ere_o long_o in_o book_n i_o will_v say_v i_o shall_v be_v call_v allen_n that_o curse_a apostate_n when_o i_o have_v try_v many_o way_n to_o make_v away_o myself_o and_o still_o see_v god_n prevent_v my_o design_n i_o will_v say_v to_o myself_o well_o i_o see_v it_o can_v be_v it_o must_v not_o be_v god_n will_v have_v i_o come_v to_o some_o fearful_a end_n and_o its_o fit_a it_o shall_v be_v so_o that_o god_n may_v glorify_v himself_o upon_o such_o a_o wretched_a creature_n as_o i_o be_v go_v along_o the_o street_n a_o godly_a minister_n pass_v by_o i_o oh_o think_v i_o with_o what_o horror_n shall_v i_o see_v that_o face_n at_o the_o great_a day_n so_o will_v i_o think_v by_o many_o other_o of_o god_n people_n that_o i_o know_v either_o relation_n or_o otherwise_o i_o say_v i_o exceed_o wonder_v that_o such_o a_o pious_a man_n as_o i_o hear_v my_o father_n be_v shall_v have_v such_o a_o child_n i_o use_v to_o say_v i_o will_v change_v condition_n with_o julian_n and_o that_o he_o be_v a_o saint_n in_o comparison_n of_o i_o nay_o that_o the_o devil_n himself_o be_v a_o saint_n compare_v with_o i_o i_o will_v say_v that_o the_o hot_a place_n in_o hell_n must_v be_v i_o nay_o do_v you_o know_v i_o you_o will_v say_v it_o be_v too_o good_a for_o i_o though_o i_o poor_a creature_n can_v think_v so_o when_o i_o complain_v of_o those_o dreadful_a sin_n i_o say_v i_o be_v guilty_a of_o some_o will_v ask_v i_o if_o i_o will_v be_v glad_a to_o be_v rid_v of_o they_o and_o to_o be_v in_o another_o condition_n yes_o say_v i_o so_o have_v the_o devil_n who_o do_v you_o think_v will_v not_o be_v happy_a but_o i_o can_v desire_v it_o upon_o any_o other_o account_n i_o will_v say_v i_o now_o see_v that_o my_o faith_n be_v only_o a_o fancy_n and_o that_o according_a to_o a_o expression_n of_o mr._n baxter_n in_o a_o book_n of_o he_o that_o the_o love_n i_o former_o have_v to_o god_n be_v carnal_a and_o diabolical_a i_o will_v say_v to_o my_o cousin_n walker_n though_o i_o be_o a_o damn_a reprobate_n yet_o from_o i_o believe_v for_o sometime_o the_o devil_n speak_v truth_n that_o there_o be_v a_o god_n and_o that_o his_o word_n be_v true_a and_o that_o there_o be_v a_o devil_n and_o that_o there_o be_v a_o hell_n which_o i_o must_v find_v by_o woeful_a experience_n i_o will_v often_o ask_v my_o cousin_n walker_n what_o those_o that_o come_v to_o visit_v i_o think_v of_o my_o condition_n he_o will_v answer_v very_o well_o i_o much_o wonder_v at_o it_o and_o will_v do_v what_o i_o can_v to_o discourage_v they_o from_o come_v yet_o if_o at_o any_o time_n i_o think_v they_o neglect_v i_o i_o will_v be_v secret_o trouble_v as_o afterward_o i_o say_v i_o be_v wont_v earnest_o to_o inquire_v whether_o it_o be_v possible_a that_o the_o child_n of_o such_o a_o mother_n as_o i_o can_v be_v save_v yet_o i_o will_v say_v i_o be_v without_o natural_a affection_n that_o i_o love_v neither_o god_n nor_o man_n and_o that_o i_o be_v give_v up_o to_o work_v all_o manner_n of_o wickedness_n with_o greediness_n we_o see_v no_o such_o thing_n by_o you_o will_v some_o say_v i_o will_v answer_v i_o but_o it_o be_v in_o my_o heart_n why_o do_v it_o not_o break_v out_o in_o act_n say_v they_o it_o will_v do_v ere_o long_o say_v i_o the_o devil_n will_v bring_v many_o place_n of_o scripture_n to_o my_o mind_n especial_o promise_v as_o i_o say_v to_o jeer_v i_o with_o they_o because_o once_o i_o think_v i_o delight_v in_o they_o but_o be_v miserable_o mistake_v which_o do_v much_o terrify_v i_o i_o will_v with_o dread_a think_v with_o myself_o if_o the_o man_n of_o beth-shemesh_a be_v so_o destroy_v 1_o sam._n vi_o 19_o but_o for_o look_v into_o the_o ark_n what_o will_v be_v my_o condemnation_n that_o have_v so_o often_o meddle_v with_o the_o holy_a ordinance_n of_o god_n as_o the_o word_n and_o sacrament_n and_o now_o prove_v to_o be_v only_o a_o curse_a hypocrite_n and_o nothing_o to_o do_v with_o they_o i_o think_v with_o myself_o then_o i_o will_v not_o partake_v of_o the_o sacrament_n of_o the_o lord_n supper_n for_o a_o thousand_o world_n when_o any_o friend_n desire_v i_o to_o go_v to_o hear_v the_o word_n of_o god_n i_o will_v earnest_o beg_v of_o they_o to_o let_v i_o alone_o say_v i_o have_v sermon_n enough_o to_o answer_v for_o already_o and_o that_o it_o will_v add_v to_o my_o great_a account_n if_o they_o offer_v to_o compel_v i_o to_o go_v i_o will_v desire_v they_o to_o let_v i_o alone_o and_o i_o will_v go_v with_o they_o the_o next_o time_n if_o i_o live_v till_o then_o but_o my_o
