and_o peace_n of_o conscience_n which_o be_v effect_n and_o fruit_n of_o our_o justification_n by_o faith_n the_o which_o assure_v we_o of_o the_o remission_n of_o our_o sin_n our_o reconciliation_n with_o god_n victory_n over_o all_o the_o enemy_n of_o our_o salvation_n and_o that_o the_o lord_n so_o watch_v over_o we_o with_o his_o providence_n and_o rule_v we_o in_o all_o our_o way_n with_o

unto_o they_o will_v not_o terrify_v we_o the_o malicious_a assault_n and_o tentation_n of_o our_o spiritual_a enemy_n will_v not_o affright_v and_o discourage_v we_o affliction_n and_o persecution_n for_o righteousness_n sake_n and_o for_o the_o profession_n and_o practice_n of_o god_n true_a religion_n will_v not_o daunt_v and_o dismay_v we_o but_o we_o will_v in_o despite_n of_o all_o these_o opposition_n hold_v on_o our_o way_n and_o finish_v our_o course_n with_o joy_n whereas_o if_o we_o want_v this_o inward_a peace_n and_o tranquillity_n our_o sin_n will_v press_v we_o down_o as_o a_o heavy_a burden_n and_o 4._o psal_n 38._o 4._o hinder_v our_o proceed_n in_o the_o way_n of_o godliness_n our_o conscience_n will_v accuse_v and_o terrify_v we_o satan_n with_o his_o tentation_n will_v

either_o we_o shall_v desist_v in_o the_o way_n of_o godliness_n as_o despair_v to_o overcome_v all_o these_o difficulty_n or_o else_o proceed_v slow_o and_o unsettle_o with_o much_o unconstancy_n and_o discomfort_n the_o second_o cause_n of_o this_o inward_a peace_n and_o tranquillity_n of_o mind_n be_v the_o subdue_a and_o mortify_v of_o our_o carnal_a lust_n and_o tumultuous_a passion_n as_o worldly_a love_n fleshly_a fear_n rash_a anger_n and_o the_o rest_n and_o the_o right_a order_n of_o all_o our_o affection_n when_o they_o be_v sanctify_v for_o where_o those_o unruly_a passion_n do_v

the_o judgement_n approve_v and_o so_o unsettle_v we_o in_o all_o good_a course_n that_o we_o can_v keep_v no_o constant_a tenor_n in_o they_o but_o upon_o every_o slight_a occasion_n all_o our_o good_a resolution_n be_v overthrow_v and_o we_o quite_o turn_v out_o of_o the_o right_a way_n whereas_o if_o these_o be_v subdue_v and_o keep_v as_o it_o be_v under_o hatch_n the_o mind_n be_v quiet_a be_v able_a to_o judge_v upright_o and_o the_o will_v to_o embrace_v that_o which_o holy_a reason_n commend_v to_o its_o choice_n and_o the_o work_n of_o piety_n prosper_v and_o proceed_v without_o any_o disturbance_n and_o as_o we_o be_v thus_o to_o mortify_v our_o carnal_a lust_n so_o we_o must_v right_o order_v our_o affection_n and_o passion_n even_o after_o they_o be_v sanctify_v that_o they_o may_v perform_v their_o duty_n in_o due_a time_n and_o place_n and_o like_a servant_n attend_v upon_o holy_a reason_n that_o they_o may_v assist_v it_o and_o not_o as_o commander_n and_o

the_o heat_n of_o passion_n last_v remiss_a and_o indifferent_a when_o this_o fervour_n abate_v and_o stone-cold_a when_o it_o cease_v and_o this_o be_v the_o true_a cause_n why_o so_o many_o who_o
