say_v he_o take_v care_n only_o for_o a_o little_a outward_a concernment_n and_o garb_n of_o religion_n that_o be_v all_o five_o this_o be_v a_o discovery_n of_o a_o hypocrite_n as_o to_o duty_n in_o general_a wherein_o his_o hypocrisy_n be_v see_v that_o he_o never_o mind_v to_o get_v the_o spirit_n of_o a_o duty_n or_o to_o a_o duty_n that_o be_v the_o holy_a bless_a frame_n of_o it_o but_o only_o care_v how_o to_o act_v handsome_o and_o take_o in_o his_o duty_n abroad_o in_o the_o world_n for_o in_o truth_n there_o be_v most_o of_o his_o act_n abroad_o in_o the_o world_n he_o care_v not_o to_o get_v the_o frame_n and_o the_o spirit_n of_o his_o duty_n he_o only_o care_v for_o a_o handsome_a deportment_n in_o it_o now_o the_o frame_n of_o a_o duty_n in_o the_o general_n be_v thus_o to_o get_v our_o heart_n in_o a_o posture_n fit_a for_o the_o nature_n of_o the_o duty_n we_o be_v about_o for_o first_o the_o frame_n of_o a_o duty_n and_o the_o spirit_n of_o it_o be_v to_o get_v your_o heart_n in_o a_o preparation_n to_o meet_v with_o god_n that_o be_v one_o thing_n which_o a_o hypocrite_n never_o look_v after_o how_o shall_v i_o meet_v with_o god_n what_o frame_n shall_v i_o be_v in_o when_o i_o come_v to_o meet_v with_o god_n what_o shall_v i_o meet_v with_o god_n about_o second_o the_o frame_n of_o a_o duty_n be_v to_o get_v the_o heart_n spiritual_o behave_v before_o god_n in_o a_o duty_n true_o few_o look_n after_o it_o i_o wish_v that_o the_o best_a saint_n do_v look_v after_o it_o more_o but_o a_o hypocrite_n never_o look_v after_o it_o at_o all_o almost_o a_o spiritual_a behaviour_n that_o lie_v in_o that_o inward_a proportion_n of_o a_o man_n soul_n before_o god_n according_a as_o he_o be_v to_o act_v to_o god_n or_o expect_v from_o god_n if_o i_o go_v to_o god_n in_o a_o mourn_a frame_n to_o beg_v something_o from_o he_o then_o can_v my_o soul_n behave_v itself_o in_o that_o poor_a and_o low_a condition_n as_o one_o that_o expect_v pure_o that_o which_o i_o want_v from_o heaven_n i_o ought_v then_o to_o be_v mighty_a humble_a and_o in_o a_o frame_n to_o get_v that_o of_o god_n if_o i_o come_v to_o rejoice_v and_o joy_n in_o god_n then_o must_v i_o be_v in_o that_o frame_n that_o all_o the_o faculty_n of_o my_o soul_n may_v rejoice_v in_o he_o and_o be_v in_o a_o heavenly_a spiritual_a tune_n this_o shall_v be_v the_o frame_n of_o my_o soul_n that_o spiritual_a behaviour_n which_o i_o can_v tell_v how_o to_o express_v so_o well_o as_o in_o that_o inward_a decorum_n in_o that_o inward_a proportion_n of_o a_o man_n soul_n unto_o god_n according_a to_o the_o nature_n of_o his_o duty_n and_o then_o three_o which_o a_o hypocrite_n never_o look_v after_o it_o be_v to_o have_v working_n in_o they_o suitable_a to_o expectation_n and_o to_o what_o i_o will_v express_v to_o god_n and_o expect_v from_o god_n which_o a_o hypocrite_n never_o have_v those_o glorious_a desire_n and_o breathe_n in_o the_o vigour_n of_o my_o soul_n carry_v out_o according_a to_o the_o weight_n and_o nature_n of_o thing_n so_o that_o i_o say_v all_o those_o thing_n show_v you_o what_o be_v the_o frame_n of_o a_o hypocrite_n in_o a_o duty_n if_o he_o can_v but_o carry_v it_o on_o handsome_o with_o quietness_n and_o conveniency_n and_o come_v off_o fair_o to_o his_o own_o conscience_n and_o to_o saint_n he_o little_a mind_n what_o his_o soul_n have_v be_v do_v what_o his_o heart_n have_v be_v act_v all_o the_o while_n and_o then_o sixthly_a pray_v you_o observe_v this_o that_o a_o hypocrite_n in_o the_o midst_n of_o all_o his_o zeal_n and_o glory_n of_o his_o duty_n he_o be_v secret_o weary_a of_o they_o you_o shall_v find_v it_o clear_a in_o your_o own_o spirit_n if_o ever_o you_o have_v be_v convince_v of_o the_o working_n of_o this_o sin_n in_o your_o soul_n especial_o if_o they_o be_v duty_n that_o do_v not_o bring_v he_o in_o present_a profit_n some_o internal_a or_o external_a thing_n he_o want_v this_o be_v that_o which_o god_n complain_v of_o in_o malachy_n they_o be_v weary_a of_o the_o sabbath_n when_o will_v the_o sabbath_n be_v over_o that_o we_o may_v go_v to_o our_o buy_n and_o sell_v for_o the_o truth_n be_v a_o hypocrite_n be_v but_o a_o perfect_a slave_n and_o drudge_n to_o duty_n he_o be_v hurry_v on_o either_o by_o necessity_n within_o or_o some_o lust_n or_o fear_v which_o move_v he_o outward_o but_o he_o be_v weary_a it_o be_v a_o burden_n to_o he_o he_o have_v no_o freedom_n at_o all_o for_o no_o man_n can_v have_v a_o freedom_n that_o have_v not_o a_o principle_n it_o be_v against_o his_o nature_n he_o be_v force_v to_o it_o he_o have_v weight_n hang_v upon_o he_o that_o move_v he_o to_o it_o but_o it_o be_v not_o so_o with_o a_o gracious_a man_n thy_o commandment_n be_v not_o grievous_a he_o can_v be_v content_a to_o do_v all_o duty_n ever_o for_o say_v david_n how_o do_v i_o delight_v in_o thy_o law_n it_o be_v my_o meditation_n day_n and_o night_n but_o a_o hypocrite_n can_v be_v willing_a to_o be_v free_a if_o it_o be_v not_o on_o some_o other_o ground_n he_o think_v they_o to_o be_v shackle_n of_o gold_n at_o the_o best_a no_o more_o he_o can_v be_v without_o they_o because_o of_o those_o thing_n he_o lay_v before_o he_o as_o his_o ground_n and_o aim_v and_o end_n but_o he_o will_v be_v glad_a to_o be_v handsome_o free_v of_o they_o now_o with_o a_o saint_n it_o be_v not_o so_o his_o knee_n may_v fail_v and_o his_o hand_n hang_v down_o but_o his_o heart_n never_o he_o will_v do_v all_o god_n will_v and_o he_o be_v sorry_a he_o can_v do_v no_o more_o than_o he_o do_v he_o be_v sorry_a the_o body_n shall_v fail_v when_o the_o spirit_n live_v a_o saint_n seldom_o fail_v in_o his_o heart_n and_o will_n for_o the_o most_o part_n the_o will_n be_v present_a i_o will_v do_v more_o but_o i_o have_v a_o cloggy_a body_n and_o i_o have_v a_o nature_n which_o be_v contrary_a to_o it_o but_o i_o have_v a_o real_a will_n now_o it_o be_v not_o so_o with_o a_o hypocrite_n he_o be_v secret_o weary_a of_o his_o duty_n in_o the_o midst_n of_o all_o his_o enjoyment_n seven_o pray_v take_v this_o along_o with_o you_o that_o you_o have_v all_o his_o religion_n in_o a_o few_o duty_n take_v he_o out_o of_o duty_n and_o he_o be_v a_o common_a man_n this_o will_v be_v a_o trial_n to_o your_o heart_n if_o you_o put_v they_o to_o it_o serious_o take_v he_o out_o of_o prayer_n and_o preach_v if_o he_o be_v one_o call_v to_o that_o work_n there_o be_v all_o his_o religion_n come_v to_o any_o deal_n of_o corruption_n there_o be_v his_o best_a part_n past_a he_o be_v no_o more_o religious_a than_o he_o be_v in_o these_o duty_n whereas_o religion_n be_v a_o life_n out_o of_o duty_n as_o well_o as_o in_o duty_n a_o man_n be_v every_o where_o go_v out_o after_o god_n religion_n will_v move_v he_o and_o breath_n in_o he_o but_o a_o hypocrite_n take_v he_o out_o of_o any_o duty_n he_o be_v about_o and_o you_o have_v no_o more_o religion_n he_o will_v be_v as_o vain_a and_o foolish_a afterward_o as_o you_o can_v imagine_v but_o if_o ever_o you_o will_v know_v a_o saint_n take_v he_o out_o of_o his_o duty_n as_o well_o as_o in_o his_o duty_n see_v how_o the_o fear_n of_o the_o lord_n be_v upon_o he_o in_o every_o way_n in_o every_o walk_n how_o the_o dread_a of_o the_o almighty_a awe_v he_o but_o a_o hypocrite_n it_o be_v a_o wonder_n to_o see_v how_o flourish_v he_o will_v be_v in_o duty_n but_o come_v and_o take_v he_o out_o of_o these_o he_o know_v in_o his_o conscience_n there_o be_v nothing_o leave_v

to_o be_v a_o most_o glorious_a hypocrite_n i_o call_v a_o hypocrite_n because_o the_o fundamental_a work_n be_v not_o do_v because_o he_o be_v not_o what_o he_o shall_v be_v nor_o what_o he_o seem_v

his_o hypocrisy_n first_o all_z these_o thing_n go_v no_o further_o than_o the_o head_n they_o be_v never_o stamp_v upon_o the_o heart_n never_o upon_o the_o breast_n they_o be_v artificial_o form_v

it_o be_v very_o hard_a for_o a_o man_n to_o be_v long_o a_o hypocrite_n under_o the_o gospel_n but_o he_o must_v lie_v under_o the_o check_n of_o it_o but_o second_o you_o will_v say_v how_o can_v

as_o man_n love_v by_o art_n to_o imitate_v nature_n they_o be_v mighty_a please_v with_o it_o to_o represent_v nature_n in_o art_n how_o man_n give_v up_o themselves_o and_o their_o study_n and_o

and_o none_o see_v he_o or_o take_v notice_n of_o he_o all_o think_v he_o a_o bless_a saint_n i_o be_o confident_a there_o be_v no_o sin_n so_o please_v to_o a_o soul_n as_o hypocrisy_n be_v for_o

such_o a_o please_a sin_n as_o with_o other_o sin_n a_o man_n see_v the_o guilt_n by_o the_o rule_n but_o not_o by_o the_o light_n of_o a_o divine_a conviction_n strange_o work_v in_o his_o soul_n
