surety_n for_o his_o neighbour_n in_o such_o a_o case_n what_o do_v he_o but_o hold_v his_o brother_n fast_o that_o the_o usurer_n like_o some_o wild_a beast_n may_v pray_v upon_o therefore_o if_o thou_o become_v surety_n for_o any_o see_v whether_o his_o cause_n be_v good_a or_o no._n next_o if_o the_o cause_n begood_o see_v whether_o he_o be_v able_a to_o discharge_v thou_o or_o no_o for_o who_o will_v give_v his_o word_n y_fw-fr t_o a_o beggar_n which_o go_v from_o door_n to_o door_n shall_v give_v a_o 1000_o pound_n for_o a_o purchase_n except_o he_o mean_v to_o pay_v it_o himself_o if_o the_o party_n be_v wealthy_a consider_v whether_o that_o abundance_n of_o wealth_n which_o he_o possess_v be_v his_o own_o or_o no_o or_o whether_o he_o come_v unto_o it_o with_o a_o good_a conscience_n lest_o the_o spoil_n of_o the_o poor_a come_v into_o thy_o possession_n while_o thou_o become_v surety_n perhaps_o for_o a_o thief_n or_o for_o a_o vile_a person_n and_o then_o fear_v lest_o the_o cry_n of_o the_o poor_a prevail_v against_o both_o he_o &_o thou_o too_o and_o know_v for_o a_o certain_a that_o the_o vengeance_n of_o the_o almighty_a do_v hang_v over_o thy_o house_n while_o thou_o keep_v in_o possession_n the_o good_n of_o other_o man_n although_o thou_o take_v they_o to_o be_v his_o good_n as_o the_o plague_n of_o god_n hang_v over_o the_o house_n of_o abimelech_n the_o king_n of_o gerar_n for_o keep_v of_o abraham_n 7._o wife_n though_o he_o take_v she_o but_o for_o abraham_n sister_n and_o therefore_o think_v it_o lawful_a enough_o for_o he_o to_o keep_v she_o and_o consider_v again_o that_o some_o be_v like_o the_o devil_n in_o promise_v for_o as_o he_o show_v christ_n the_o kingdom_n of_o the_o world_n and_o say_v all_o these_o will_v i_o give_v thou_o if_o thou_o will_v 9_o fall_v down_o and_o worship_v i_o when_o indeed_o he_o have_v no_o right_n to_o any_o part_n or_o parcel_n thereof_o so_o it_o may_v be_v some_o may_v come_v to_o

for_o so_o much_o etc._n etc._n when_o wife_n in_o truth_n it_o be_v not_o he_o to_o pledge_v &_o then_o thou_o be_v in_o the_o brier_n therefore_o when_o thou_o will_v enter_v into_o suertiship_n without_o any_o hurt_n to_o thyself_o &_o thy_o family_n know_v thy_o friend_n well_o &_o how_o able_a he_o be_v in_o truth_n to_o discharge_v thou_o last_o of_o all_o if_o his_o cause_n be_v good_a &_o his_o wealth_n his_o own_o before_o god_n and_o man_n then_o consider_v of_o his_o religion_n that_o be_v whether_o he_o be_v a_o man_n fear_v god_n or_o no_o and_o one_o that_o in_o truth_n without_o hypocrisy_n worship_v god_n for_o he_o that_o be_v a_o stranger_n or_o a_o professor_n of_o a_o strange_a religion_n be_v the_o great_a stranger_n in_o the_o world_n and_o he_o that_o be_v false_a to_o god_n will_v hardly_o be_v true_a to_o man_n especial_o to_o those_o that_o be_v of_o a_o contrary_a religion_n no_o more_o than_o hagar_n 21._o and_o sarah_n can_v dwell_v quiet_o in_o one_o house_n together_o and_o yet_o i_o deny_v not_o out_o a_o idolater_n as_o papist_n etc._n etc._n may_v and_o many_o of_o they_o do_v keep_v their_o word_n and_o so_o do_v many_o of_o the_o turk_n etc._n etc._n keep_v promise_v better_a than_o many_o other_o do_v and_o this_o be_v but_o satan_n policy_n to_o credit_n a_o bad_a religion_n with_o the_o show_n of_o a_o good_a life_n as_o also_o to_o discredit_v the_o truth_n with_o some_o show_n of_o evil_n in_o the_o professor_n of_o the_o same_o &_o so_o much_o for_o thy_o friend_n cause_n ability_n &_o religion_n many_o man_n complain_v and_o sorrow_n for_o their_o good_n because_o they_o be_v go_v from_o they_o as_o rachel_n mourn_v 18._o for_o her_o child_n because_o they_o be_v not_o but_o they_o have_v more_o cause_n to_o weep_v then_o rachel_n have_v because_o she_o lose_v her_o child_n when_o she_o can_v not_o keep_v they_o but_o they_o through_o their_o own_o folly_n have_v lose_v their_o good_n when_o they_o may_v have_v keep_v they_o still_o for_o they_o be_v in_o their_o own_o power_n as_o peter_n say_v to_o ananias_n &_o they_o be_v no_o 4._o more_o constrain_v to_o give_v their_o word_n they_o ananias_n be_v compel_v to_o lie_v unto_o god_n among_o man_n which_o complain_v of_o their_o loss_n by_o sueriship_n common_o the_o burden_n of_o their_o doleful_a song_n be_v this_o i_o will_v take_v heed_n while_o i_o live_v how_o and_o for_o who_o i_o give_v my_o word_n again_o which_o in_o effect_n be_v but_o this_o much_o if_o they_o have_v be_v well_o advise_v at_o the_o first_o they_o have_v do_v well_o enough_o and_o so_o it_o be_v indeed_o that_o for_o want_v of_o consult_v with_o the_o word_n of_o god_n it_o come_v to_o pass_v that_o many_o in_o a_o vain_a vain_a to_o be_v count_v kind_a heart_a &_o i_o can_v tell_v what_o do_v feed_v other_o till_o they_o starve_v themselves_o they_o cloth_n other_o and_o go_v naked_a themselves_o they_o save_v other_o from_o drown_v and_o sink_v themselves_o they_o discharge_v other_o and_o charge_v themselves_o they_o also_o release_v other_o and_o lie_v by_o it_o themselves_o what_o shall_v i_o say_v they_o do_v for_o other_o and_o undoo_v themselves_o like_o the_o builder_n of_o noes_n ark_n which_o prepare_v for_o other_o 7._o and_o perish_v themselves_o on_o the_o other_o side_n it_o come_v to_o pass_v that_o they_o which_o listen_v to_o god_n counsel_n and_o follow_v that_o they_o lend_v and_o borrow_v not_o they_o give_v and_o take_v not_o they_o feast_v and_o fast_v not_o they_o redeem_v other_o and_o come_v in_o no_o bondage_n themselves_o yea_o they_o do_v for_o other_o and_o never_o undoo_v themselves_o but_o the_o more_o they_o help_v the_o more_o they_o may_v help_v like_o the_o bless_a widow_n of_o sarepta_n who_o oil_n and_o meal_n 14._o be_v no_o whit_n diminish_v but_o rather_o increase_v and_o yet_o be_v daily_o spend_v of_o for_o 7._o the_o nourish_a of_o elias_n and_o herself_o all_o her_o debt_n discharge_v the_o reason_n hereof_o be_v this_o if_o she_o have_v bestow_v her_o meal_n and_o her_o oil_n upon_o every_o one_o that_o have_v come_v without_o respect_n of_o person_n to_o have_v be_v count_v a_o good_a fellow_n or_o a_o kind_a heart_a woman_n as_o the_o manner_n of_o some_o be_v no_o doubt_n but_o all_o have_v be_v consume_v long_o before_o but_o she_o keep_v her_o liberality_n for_o elias_n the_o lord_n prophet_n who_o be_v in_o great_a distress_n and_o can_v no_o where_o else_o be_v relieve_v but_o at_o her_o hand_n and_o then_o she_o succour_v he_o according_a to_o her_o poor_a ability_n of_o love_n and_o conscience_n for_o the_o lord_n sake_n and_o therefore_o the_o lord_n bless_v she_o so_o let_v we_o do_v &_o god_n will_v likewise_o bless_v we_o will_v thou_o then_o give_v to_o other_o and_o not_o want_v thyself_o will_v thou_o redeem_v other_o and_o be_v at_o liberty_n thyself_o will_v thou_o feed_v other_o and_o not_o starve_v thyself_o will_v thou_o rejoice_v other_o &_o not_o mourn_v thyself_o in_o a_o word_n because_o the_o duty_n of_o love_n be_v infinite_a will_v thou_o do_v for_o other_o and_o not_o undo_v thyself_o then_o give_v not_o to_o all_o lend_v not_o to_o all_o provide_v not_o for_o all_o promise_v not_o for_o all_o lest_o in_o the_o end_n thou_o be_v drive_v to_o pay_v for_o all_o and_o then_o be_v constrain_v to_o beg_v of_o all_o not_o only_o thy_o good_n but_o thyself_o too_o when_o thou_o shall_v be_v shut_v up_o and_o thrust_v out_o from_o the_o company_n of_o all_o but_o give_v to_o those_o to_o who_o god_n have_v appoint_v thou_o to_o give_v and_o god_n will_v give_v it_o thou_o again_o help_v those_o who_o god_n have_v send_v unto_o thou_o to_o be_v relieve_v and_o that_o according_a to_o thy_o ability_n and_o god_n will_v help_v thou_o again_o to_o conclude_v this_o point_n be_v thou_o advise_v by_o thy_o heavenly_a father_n and_o take_v counsel_n of_o his_o word_n and_o in_o so_o do_v thou_o shall_v both_o save_v thyself_o and_o help_v other_o the_o sin_n which_o god_n spirit_n reprove_v surety_n in_o surety_n be_v especial_o two_o the_o one_o be_v amibition_n the_o other_o be_v rashness_n the_o one_o beget_v the_o other_o when_o a_o man_n friend_n come_v unto_o he_o he_o give_v his_o word_n because_o he_o will_v seem_v to_o be_v ambition_n courtous_a and_o
