have_v be_v compass_v about_o with_o fast_n and_o thanksgiving_n and_o other_o exercise_n and_o transaction_n i_o think_v we_o have_v all_o to_o lament_v why_o true_o you_o be_v call_v by_o god_n to_o rule_v with_o he_o and_o for_o he_o and_o you_o be_v call_v to_o be_v faithful_a with_o the_o saint_n who_o have_v be_v somewhat_o instrumental_a to_o your_o call_n he_o that_o rule_v over_o man_n the_o scripture_n say_v he_o must_v be_v just_a rule_v in_o the_o fear_n of_o god_n and_o true_o it_o be_v better_a to_o pray_v for_o you_o then_o to_o counsel_v you_o in_o that_o that_o you_o may_v exercise_v the_o judgement_n of_o mercy_n and_o truth_n i_o say_v it_o be_v better_a for_o you_o to_o do_v it_o then_o to_o advise_v you_o to_o ask_v wisdom_n from_o heaven_n for_o you_o which_o i_o be_o confident_a many_o thousand_o of_o saint_n do_v this_o day_n and_o have_v do_v and_o will_v do_v through_o the_o permission_n of_o god_n and_o his_o assistance_n to_o advise_v you_o only_a true_o i_o think_v of_o a_o scripture_n likewise_o that_o seem_v to_o be_v but_o a_o scripture_n of_o common_a application_n to_o every_o man_n as_o a_o christian_a wherein_o he_o be_v counsel_v to_o ask_v wisdom_n and_o he_o be_v tell_v what_o be_v that_o wisdom_n that_o be_v from_o above_o it_o be_v pure_a peaceable_a gentle_a casie_a to_o be_v entreat_v full_a of_o good_a fruit_n without_o partiality_n without_o hypocrisy_n and_o my_o thought_n run_v thus_o upon_o this_o that_o the_o execute_n of_o the_o judgement_n of_o truth_n for_o that_o be_v the_o judgement_n that_o you_o must_v have_v wisdom_n from_o above_o for_o and_o that_o be_v pure_a that_o will_v teach_v you_o to_o execute_v the_o judgement_n of_o truth_n and_o then_o if_o god_n give_v you_o heart_n to_o be_v easy_a to_o be_v entreat_v to_o be_v peaceable_a spirit_n to_o be_v full_a of_o good_a fruit_n bear_v good_a fruit_n to_o the_o nation_n to_o man_n as_o man_n to_o the_o people_n of_o god_n to_o all_o in_o their_o several_a station_n this_o wisdom_n will_v teach_v you_o to_o execute_v the_o judgement_n of_o mercy_n and_o truth_n and_o i_o have_v little_o more_o to_o say_v to_o this_o i_o shall_v rather_o bend_v my_o prayer_n for_o you_o in_o that_o behalf_n as_o i_o say_v before_o and_o i_o know_v many_o other_o do_v also_o true_o the_o judgement_n of_o truth_n will_v teach_v you_o to_o be_v as_o just_a towards_o a_o unbeliever_n as_o towards_o a_o believer_n and_o it_o be_v our_o duty_n to_o do_v so_o i_o confess_v i_o have_v often_o say_v it_o foolish_o if_o i_o will_v miscarry_v i_o will_v rather_o do_v it_o to_o a_o believer_n then_o to_o a_o unbeliever_n perhaps_o it_o be_v a_o paradox_n but_o let_v we_o take_v heed_n of_o do_v it_o to_o either_o exercise_v injustice_n to_o either_o if_o god_n fill_v our_o heart_n with_o such_o a_o spirit_n as_o moses_n and_o paul_n have_v which_o be_v not_o only_o a_o spirit_n for_o the_o believer_n among_o the_o people_n of_o god_n but_o for_o the_o whole_a people_n he_o will_v have_v dye_v for_o they_o and_o so_o paul_n to_o his_o countryman_n according_a to_o the_o flesh_n he_o can_v have_v dye_v for_o they_o true_o this_o will_v help_v we_o to_o execute_v the_o judgement_n of_o truth_n and_o mercy_n also_o a_o second_o thing_n be_v to_o desire_v you_o will_v be_v faithful_a with_o the_o saint_n and_o i_o hope_v whatever_o other_o may_v think_v aught_o to_o be_v to_o we_o all_o matter_n of_o tejoyce_v that_o as_o one_o person_n our_o saviour_n be_v touch_v with_o our_o infirmity_n that_o he_o may_v be_v pitiful_a i_o do_v think_v this_o assembly_n thus_o call_v be_v very_o much_o touch_v with_o the_o common_a infirmity_n of_o the_o saint_n and_o i_o hope_v that_o will_v teach_v you_o to_o pity_v other_o that_o so_o saint_n of_o one_o sort_n may_v not_o be_v our_o interest_n but_o that_o we_o may_v have_v respect_n unto_o all_o though_o of_o different_a judgement_n and_o if_o i_o do_v seem_v to_o speak_v any_o thing_n that_o may_v seem_v to_o reflect_v upon_o those_o of_o the_o presbyterian_a judgement_n i_o think_v if_o you_o have_v not_o a_o interest_n of_o love_n for_o they_o will_v hardly_o answer_v this_o faithfulness_n to_o his_o saint_n i_o confess_v in_o my_o pilgrimage_n and_o some_o exercise_n i_o have_v have_v abroad_o i_o do_v read_v that_o scripture_n often_o in_o isaiah_n 41_o and_o 19_o when_o god_n give_v i_o and_o some_o of_o my_o fellow_n what_o he_o will_v there_o and_o elsewhere_o which_o he_o perform_v for_o we_o and_o what_o will_v he_o do_v to_o what_o end_n that_o he_o may_v plant_v in_o the_o wilderness_n the_o cedar_n and_o the_o shitta_n tree_n and_o the_o myrtle_n tree_n and_o the_o palm_n tree_n together_o to_o what_o end_n that_o they_o may_v know_v and_o consider_v and_o understand_v together_o that_o the_o hand_n of_o the_o lord_n have_v do_v this_o and_o that_o the_o lord_n have_v create_v it_o that_o he_o wrought_v all_o salvation_n and_o deliverance_n which_o he_o have_v wrought_v for_o the_o good_a of_o the_o whole_a flock_n therefore_o i_o beseech_v you_o but_o i_o think_v i_o need_v not_o have_v a_o care_n of_o the_o whole_a flock_n love_v all_o the_o sheep_n love_v the_o lamb_n love_v all_o and_o tender_a all_o and_o cherish_v all_o and_o countenance_n all_o in_o all_o thing_n that_o be_v good_a and_o if_o the_o poor_a christian_n the_o most_o mistake_a christian_a shall_v desire_v to_o live_v peaceable_o and_o quiet_o under_o you_o sober_o and_o humble_o desire_v to_o
