be_v do_v and_o this_o condemn_v the_o world_n that_o sensual_a and_o devilish_a part_n will_v never_o endure_v thus_o to_o stick_v to_o the_o work_n to_o cleave_v to_o a_o people_n through_o all_o

they_o can_v get_v from_o they_o so_o easy_o you_o shall_v not_o see_v my_o face_n unless_o your_o young_a brother_n be_v with_o you_o say_v joseph_n they_o must_v not_o leave_v a_o hoof_n behind_o that_o belong_v to_o israel_n such_o a_o charge_n as_o this_o be_v lay_v upon_o i_o concern_v some_o of_o your_o soul_n that_o if_o you_o fall_v short_a i_o shall_v bear_v the_o blame_n for_o ever_o the_o blood_n will_v be_v require_v at_o my_o hand_n if_o i_o deal_v not_o faithful_o and_o bring_v you_o home_o if_o you_o be_v not_o save_v to_o the_o utmost_a but_o the_o encouragement_n to_o i_o be_v that_o some_o have_v go_v through_o this_o work_n noah_n do_v save_v his_o house_n his_o labour_n be_v not_o in_o vain_a and_o the_o promise_n to_o christ_n be_v he_o shall_v see_v of_o the_o

year_n travel_n and_o preach_v but_o to_o give_v i_o a_o people_n that_o may_v indeed_o build_v this_o ark_n and_o attain_v to_o a_o sure_a knowledge_n of_o their_o eternal_a condition_n that_o they_o shall_v live_v for_o ever_o it_o will_v requite_v i_o for_o all_o if_o some_o of_o you_o may_v come_v forth_o thus_o to_o be_v judge_n of_o the_o world_n and_o build_v such_o a_o ark_n of_o truth_n as_o that_o all_o the_o dagon_n and_o idol-worship_n of_o the_o world_n must_v fall_v before_o it_o iii_o the_o three_o effect_n that_o follow_v this_o build_n of_o the_o ark_n be_v this_o he_o become_v a_o heir_n of_o the_o righteousness_n which_o be_v by_o faith_n and_o about_o this_o three_o thing_n may_v be_v consider_v 1._o what_o be_v this_o inheritance_n it_o be_v a_o very_a large_a inheritance_n it_o be_v to_o enjoy_v the_o lord_n to_o be_v join_v and_o make_v one_o spirit_n with_o he_o the_o lord_n be_v my_o portion_n say_v david_n the_o lord_n be_v my_o lot_n my_o refuge_n the_o lifter_n up_o of_o my_o head_n this_n be_v a_o wonderful_a large_a inheritance_n great_a be_v the_o portion_n of_o his_o people_n thus_o shall_v it_o be_v do_v to_o the_o man_n who_o he_o delight_v to_o honour_n he_o shall_v have_v a_o inheritance_n in_o light_n a_o inheritance_n incorruptible_a and_o that_o fade_v not_o away_o no_o alter_v of_o it_o when_o i_o awake_v i_o be_o still_o with_o thou_o say_v david_n his_o inheritance_n abide_v sure_a to_o he_o many_o have_v a_o great_a portion_n to_o look_v on_o they_o have_v a_o great_a stock_n of_o peace_n and_o knowledge_n and_o hope_n and_o confidence_n i_o but_o a_o worm_n eat_v through_o the_o gourd_n in_o a_o night_n riches_n make_v they_o wing_n and_o flee_v away_o thus_o be_v the_o hope_n of_o the_o hypocrite_n his_o house_n fall_v when_o he_o come_v to_o lean_v on_o it_o his_o great_a bulk_n of_o confidence_n be_v but_o a_o heap_n of_o chaff_n which_o the_o wind_n soon_o blow_v away_o but_o david_n can_v say_v the_o lord_n be_v my_o portion_n i_o have_v enough_o the_o lord_n live_v and_o bless_v be_v the_o rock_n of_o my_o salvation_n 2._o what_o be_v it_o to_o be_v a_o heir_n to_o be_v a_o heir_n be_v to_o be_v bear_v with_o a_o right_n and_o title_n to_o a_o inheritance_n to_o have_v a_o estate_n fall_v to_o one_o by_o right_n so_o that_o it_o can_v be_v cut_v off_o it_o can_v neither_o be_v sell_v nor_o give_v away_o from_o the_o heir_n now_o this_o be_v wonderful_a to_o be_v bear_v with_o such_o a_o right_n and_o title_n to_o eternal_a life_n such_o a_o near_a interest_n in_o the_o lord_n that_o nothing_o can_v separate_v from_o he_o neither_o tribulation_n nor_o suffering_n nor_o life_n
cleanse_v i_o from_o my_o blood_n guiltiness_n the_o father_n be_v sensible_a how_o the_o soul_n stand_v tremble_v therefore_o make_v haste_n bring_v the_o best_a robe_n make_v haste_n to_o cover_v his_o nakedness_n say_v the_o father_n because_o our_o guilt_n be_v upon_o we_o how_o do_v we_o pull_v charge_v of_o sin_n upon_o ourselves_o when_o god_n charge_v not_o and_o hide_v our_o sin_n when_o god_n will_v charge_v we_o but_o the_o best_a robe_n clear_v all_o it_o intimate_v the_o father_n have_v other_o it_o be_v say_v of_o elkanah_n he_o give_v portion_n to_o all_o his_o wife_n but_o to_o hannah_n he_o give_v a_o worthy_a portion_n because_o he_o love_v she_o i_o have_v love_v thou_o with_o a_o everlasting_a love_n say_v god_n therefore_o with_o love_a kindness_n have_v i_o draw_v thou_o that_o where_o sin_n abound_v grace_n may_v superabound_v for_o yet_o in_o the_o worst_a day_n the_o soul_n be_v make_v to_o say_v but_o my_o wisdom_n remain_v with_o i_o the_o prodigal_n in_o the_o worst_a day_n retain_v his_o sonship_n still_o though_o when_o he_o return_v he_o be_v make_v to_o confess_v the_o thing_n as_o it_o be_v but_o first_o he_o arise_v and_o that_o be_v beyond_o all_o that_o howl_v upon_o their_o bed_n in_o their_o sickness-time_n and_o strait_n they_o will_v cry_v out_o oh_o what_o a_o wretch_n be_o i_o but_o their_o iniquity_n be_v still_o upon_o their_o back_n they_o arise_v not_o they_o dare_v not_o approach_v before_o god_n but_o the_o prodigal_n though_o he_o come_v bow_v and_o blush_v yet_o he_o come_v know_v and_o hope_v and_o he_o never_o say_v that_o word_n father_n i_o have_v sin_v but_o the_o father_n say_v present_o bring_v the_o best_a robe_n but_o 2._o i_o tell_v you_o this_o be_v considerable_a the_o father_n say_v and_o put_v a_o ring_n on_o his_o hand_n do_v you_o consider_v what_o ring_n be_v use_v for_o they_o be_v not_o put_v on_o to_o strengthen_v the_o hand_n but_o to_o adorn_v they_o but_o what_o be_v the_o hand_n for_o it_o be_v for_o work_n o_o prosper_v thou_o the_o work_n of_o our_o hand_n say_v david_n now_o what_o must_v the_o hand_n the_o work_n be_v adorn_v with_o there_o be_v these_o three_o ornament_n for_o it_o 1._o the_o prodigal_n must_v be_v adorn_v with_o skill_n as_o it_o be_v say_v of_o david_n concern_v israel_n he_o feed_v they_o in_o the_o integrity_n of_o his_o heart_n and_o guide_v they_o with_o the_o skilfulness_n of_o his_o hand_n psal_n 78.72_o it_o have_v teach_v the_o prodigal_a skill_n indeed_o he_o can_v say_v now_o as_o david_n come_v ●y_a brethren_n and_o i_o can_v tell_v you_o what_o god_n have_v do_v for_o my_o soul_n how_o he_o deliver_v i_o and_o instruct_v i_o now_o i_o be_o make_v able_a to_o divide_v the_o word_n aright_o there_o be_v great_a need_n of_o skill_n to_o know_v when_o to_o speak_v how_o to_o speak_v to_o what_o to_o speak_v for_o what_o purpose_n to_o speak_v either_o for_o edification_n or_o destruction_n all_o the_o while_n before_o he_o have_v no_o heart_n to_o pity_v stranger_n till_o he_o be_v fall_v among_o thief_n etc._n etc._n and_o now_o after_o his_o come_n home_o he_o be_v able_a to_o instruct_v and_o teach_v other_o if_o there_o be_v a_o messenger_n one_o of_o a_o thousand_o to_o show_v unto_o man_n his_o righteousness_n etc._n etc._n now_o he_o have_v learn_v expereince_n by_o his_o wander_a but_o all_o the_o while_o we_o be_v in_o the_o house_n we_o be_v novice_n we_o have_v learn_v no_o skill_n how_o to_o instruct_v other_o for_o we_o have_v learn_v none_o ourselves_o but_o now_o the_o burn_a child_n dread_v the_o fire_n when_o we_o have_v run_v our_o round_n try_v what_o be_v in_o madness_n and_o folly_n it_o bring_v forth_o skill_n and_o who_o be_v fit_a to_o bring_v up_o a_o people_n in_o the_o wisdom_n and_o fear_n of_o the_o lord_n but_o such_o as_o have_v go_v down_o to_o the_o deep_n as_o joseph_n do_v first_o he_o have_v be_v prove_v and_o try_v himself_o he_o be_v separate_v from_o his_o brethren_n as_o christ_n say_v of_o peter_n satan_n have_v desire_v to_o sift_v thou_o and_o he_o shall_v etc._n etc._n but_o when_o thou_o be_v convert_v then_o strengthen_v thy_o brethren_n but_o 2._o the_o second_o thing_n the_o hand_n be_v to_o be_v adorn_v with_o be_v diligence_n be_v now_o once_o bring_v from_o his_o prodigality_n he_o will_v redeem_v the_o time_n and_o be_v more_o watchful_a and_o diligent_a then_o ever_o be_v you_o vigilant_a for_o your_o enemy_n the_o devil_n go_v about_o like_o a_o roar_a lion_n seek_v who_o he_o may_v devour_v it_o be_v a_o ornament_n to_o the_o work_n when_o it_o go_v on_o with_o diligence_n not_o sleep_o we_o say_v of_o such_o a_o man_n sure_o the_o work_n be_v never_o like_a to_o come_v to_o perfection_n the_o lord_n expect_v a_o diligent_a hand_n in_o all_o your_o service_n and_o that_o beautify_v the_o work_n but_o to_o beautify_v a_o slothful_a hand_n be_v like_a to_o the_o put_v a_o ring_n in_o a_o swine_n snout_n he_o will_v not_o reward_v the_o slothful_a hand_n but_o the_o diligent_a he_o reward_v the_o soul_n that_o be_v diligent_a night_n and_o day_n how_o to_o further_a the_o work_n of_o the_o lord_n therefore_o be_v you_o always_o abound_v in_o the_o work_n of_o the_o lord_n say_v paul_n know_v that_o your_o labour_n be_v not_o in_o vain_a etc._n etc._n but_o alas_o while_o we_o be_v in_o the_o land_n of_o harlot_n we_o be_v ashamed_a of_o our_o work_n a_o man_n that_o have_v no_o meat_n to_o eat_v nor_o clothes_n to_o put_v on_o nor_o a_o friend_n to_o go_v to_o to_o impart_v his_o

you_o set_v a_o high_a price_n upon_o the_o truth_n and_o say_v as_o david_n o_o what_o shall_v i_o render_v to_o the_o lord_n etc._n etc._n i_o know_v how_o many_o precious_a day_n and_o season_n you_o have_v tread_v under_o foot_n but_o the_o time_n will_v come_v that_o you_o will_v be_v glad_a to_o glean_v they_o up_o again_o and_o say_v i_o will_v be_v more_o diligent_a to_o hear_v and_o lay_v up_o every_o word_n and_o look_v the_o least_o smile_n of_o truth_n will_v be_v lay_v up_o every_o mercy_n will_v you_o be_v make_v to_o prize_v there_o will_v be_v no_o more_o a_o claim_n as_o

trifle_n like_o child_n that_o make_v dirt-pye_n we_o stand_v and_o prize_v the_o work_n this_o will_v adorn_v the_o hand_n when_o it_o shall_v be_v employ_v about_o thing_n that_o profit_n to_o be_v
