and_o that_o so_o weary_a come_v to_o i_o and_o of_o this_o mercy_n of_o god_n in_o christ_n the_o minister_n shall_v be_v able_a as_o from_o not_o only_a knowledge_n out_o of_o the_o word_n of_o

we_o in_o all_o our_o tribulation_n that_o we_o may_v be_v able_a to_o comfort_v they_o who_o be_v in_o any_o affliction_n by_o the_o comfort_n wherewith_o we_o ourselves_o be_v comfort_v of_o god_n for_o as_o the_o suffering_n of_o christ_n abound_v in_o we_o so_o our_o consolation_n abound_v through_o christ_n 18._o the_o like_a be_v say_v of_o christ_n for_o in_o that_o he_o suffer_v and_o

to_o comfort_v other_o which_o be_v under_o any_o heaviness_n or_o affliction_n and_o this_o be_v the_o general_a point_n to_o be_v observe_v upon_o the_o prophet_n counsell-giving_a to_o the_o widow_n now_o let_v we_o see_v the_o counsel_n itself_o and_o he_o say_v go_v borrow_v thou_o vessel_n abroad_o of_o all_o thy_o neighbour_n empty_a vessel_n and_o spare_v not_o 4._o and_o when_o thou_o be_v come_v in_o thou_o shall_v shut_v the_o door_n upon_o thou_o and_o upon_o thy_o son_n and_o pour_v out_o into_o all_o those_o vessel_n and_o set_v aside_o those_o that_o be_v full_a the_o general_a observation_n in_o this_o counsel_n of_o the_o prophet_n and_o the_o put_v it_o in_o practice_n by_o the_o widow_n be_v this_o all_o person_n in_o all_o case_n of_o extremity_n be_v mutual_o to_o aid_n and_o assist_v each_o other_o in_o the_o restore_n of_o any_o decay_a among_o they_o as_o here_o first_o the_o prophet_n in_o his_o counsel-giving_a than_o neighbour_n in_o their_o lend_n the_o widow_n in_o her_o work_n together_o by_o her_o son_n upon_o the_o empty_a vessel_n of_o oil_n her_o son_n in_o go_v up_o and_o down_o fetch_v carry_v pour_v out_o of_o the_o full_a vessel_n sort_v and_o set_v aside_o the_o empty_a from_o the_o full_a to_o their_o right_a end_n and_o this_o be_v teach_v by_o way_n of_o similitude_n in_o the_o epistle_n to_o the_o roman_n where_o the_o apostle_n speak_v of_o the_o church_n in_o christ_n as_o of_o the_o member_n in_o one_o body_n 5._o sai_z for_o as_o we_o have_v many_o member_n in_o one_o body_n and_o all_o member_n have_v not_o one_o office_n so_o we_o be_v many_o be_v one_o body_n in_o christ_n and_o every_o one_o another_o member_n and_o as_o one_o member_n in_o the_o natural_a body_n according_a as_o it_o be_v in_o want_n and_o weakness_n be_v to_o be_v respect_v with_o care_n by_o that_o other_o which_o be_v above_o it_o in_o power_n and_o ability_n so_o it_o ought_v to_o be_v much_o more_o in_o the_o mystical_a body_n of_o christ_n jesus_n who_o be_v mutual_o to_o serve_v one_o another_o in_o love_n but_o that_o the_o member_n shall_v have_v the_o same_o care_n one_o for_o another_o say_v the_o apostle_n 26._o 26._o therefore_o if_o one_o member_n suffer_v all_o suffer_v with_o it_o if_o one_o member_n be_v have_v in_o honour_n all_o the_o member_n rejoice_v with_o it_o and_o to_o this_o purpose_n each_o person_n and_o thing_n in_o god_n providence_n be_v ordain_v for_o the_o succour_n and_o relief_n of_o his_o child_n under_o the_o cross_n thus_o god_n wrought_v for_o david_n by_o jonathan_n

we_o have_v be_v in_o former_a time_n to_o discharge_v this_o duty_n and_o thereupon_o to_o go_v to_o god_n by_o and_o in_o prayer_n for_o the_o gracious_a assistance_n of_o his_o holy_a spirit_n thereby_o to_o quicken_v we_o up_o unto_o a_o further_o and_o more_o compassionate_a care_n in_o all_o christian_a love_n to_o and_o for_o the_o good_a of_o other_o for_o the_o time_n to_o come_v
