do_v all_o his_o office_n for_o thy_o sanctification_n and_o consolation_n here_o and_o for_o thy_o salvation_n and_o glorification_n hereafter_o therefore_o watch_v and_o fear_v not_o as_o lord_n privy_a seal_n he_o be_v ready_a to_o set_v upon_o thou_o the_o stamp_v of_o regeneration_n and_o mark_n of_o mortification_n as_o die_v to_o sin_n live_v to_o virtue_n with_o increase_n of_o faith_n

watch_v still_o and_o fear_v not_o for_o he_o with_o his_o quicken_a virtue_n and_o sovereign_a oil_n of_o heavenly_a assurance_n shall_v restore_v unto_o thou_o again_o the_o joy_n of_o thy_o

shall_v change_v thy_o death_n into_o life_n and_o thy_o mortality_n into_o immortality_n yea_o if_o the_o boisterous_a wind_n of_o persecution_n and_o trouble_n chance_n to_o arise_v and_o drive_v thou_o either_o into_o prison_n or_o to_o the_o stake_n or_o to_o the_o gallows_n or_o to_o banishment_n or_o to_o the_o uncomfortable_a coast_n of_o contempt_n reproach_n or_o any_o other_o across_o whatsoever_o he_o can_v quench_v the_o fire_n or_o stop_v the_o lion_n mouth_n or_o open_v the_o prison_n door_n or_o raise_v thou_o up_o new_a friend_n or_o take_v away_o thy_o hunger_n or_o give_v thou_o strength_n to_o bear_v all_o if_o he_o will_v or_o else_o make_v all_o these_o as_o mean_n to_o drive_v thou_o soon_o into_o heaven_n than_o thou_o will_v be_v and_o therefore_o take_v heed_n watch_n and_o fear_v not_o but_o now_o thou_o must_v take_v heed_n that_o those_o thing_n which_o be_v speak_v for_o thy_o consolation_n and_o encouragement_n do_v not_o make_v thou_o careless_a and_o remiss_a but_o be_v admonish_v in_o stand_v upon_o thy_o watch_n to_o take_v heed_n of_o two_o thing_n first_o that_o thou_o post_v not_o off_o thy_o watch_n unto_o other_o man_n second_o that_o thou_o drive_v it_o not_o off_o unto_o another_o time_n if_o thou_o post_v off_o this_o duty_n to_o other_o man_n thou_o deceive_v thyself_o for_o thou_o have_v no_o more_o privilege_n than_o other_o

that_o other_o man_n be_v subject_a unto_o and_o therefore_o if_o other_o man_n must_v take_v heed_n and_o watch_v over_o their_o affection_n thou_o must_v if_o some_o must_v all_o must_v and_o therefore_o lest_o any_o man_n shall_v think_v he_o be_v more_o privilege_v than_o all_o man_n christ_n say_v 24._o that_o which_o i_o say_v unto_o one_o i_o say_v unto_o all_o watch_n it_o be_v a_o

say_v as_o the_o disciple_n say_v when_o they_o hear_v christ_n say_v one_o shall_v betray_v he_o be_v it_o i_o be_v this_o to_o i_o do_v this_o doctrine_n concern_v i_o who_o do_v he_o mean_a as_o though_o christ_n have_v say_v here_o but_o one_o of_o you_o must_v take_v heed_n and_o watch_v and_o when_o we_o see_v or_o hear_v of_o any_o other_o man_n that_o be_v come_v to_o reap_v the_o

of_o heed_n take_v but_o yet_o we_o take_v no_o more_o heed_n than_o they_o for_o we_o think_v it_o concern_v we_o not_o but_o this_o be_v our_o great_a folly_n other_o man_n that_o have_v fall_v before_o we_o be_v like_o ship_n that_o be_v sink_v before_o our_o eye_n and_o cry_v out_o unto_o we_o look_v you_o to_o yourselves_o and_o come_v not_o after_o we_o for_o if_o you_o do_v you_o shall_v all_o likewise_o perish_v let_v other_o man_n be_v our_o warning_n and_o not_o our_o deputy_n in_o these_o case_n for_o do_v man_n shall_v go_v to_o hell_n by_o his_o deputy_n but_o every_o man_n that_o have_v be_v careless_a in_o his_o watch_n without_o repentance_n shall_v in_o his_o own_o person_n die_v the_o death_n second_o thou_o that_o be_v to_o begin_v if_o thou_o will_v keep_v thy_o watch_n well_o post_v it_o not_o off_o until_o another_o time_n for_o that_o be_v another_o of_o the_o devil_n sleight_n but_o remember_v what_o christ_n say_v in_o the_o text_n when_o thou_o do_v thy_o alm_n take_v heed_n he_o do_v not_o say_v when_o thou_o have_v do_v it_o for_o than_o it_o come_v too_o late_o because_o that_o action_n be_v pass_v with_o a_o thievish_a affection_n already_o take_v heed_n after_o the_o evil_n be_v commit_v be_v like_a shut_v the_o door_n when_o the_o horse_n be_v steal_v if_o thou_o will_v take_v the_o thief_n with_o the_o manner_n thou_o must_v

of_o thy_o heart_n where_o thou_o can_v not_o so_o well_o find_v he_o and_o there_o he_o both_o watch_v his_o time_n for_o the_o like_a booty_n another_o time_n and_o in_o the_o mean_a time_n he_o do_v as_o it_o be_v laugh_v thou_o to_o scorn_n for_o that_o thou_o be_v so_o foolish_a as_o to_o let_v he_o rob_v both_o god_n of_o his_o honour_n and_o thou_o of_o his_o favour_n while_o he_o
