the_o rest_n when_o christ_n be_v in_o his_o passion_n where_o it_o may_v have_v be_v expect_v he_o shall_v have_v be_v most_o watchful_a above_o any_o of_o the_o rest_n of_o the_o disciple_n yet_o we_o do_v not_o find_v that_o our_o saviour_n take_v any_o notice_n of_o this_o so_o as_o to_o reprove_v john_n more_o than_o the_o rest_n and_o it_o be_v probable_a christ_n may_v use_v more_o tenderness_n because_o of_o the_o relation_n though_o his_o want_n of_o watchfulness_n in_o such_o extremity_n of_o affair_n seem_v a_o great_a fault_n in_o john_n a_o friend_n never_o incline_v to_o grieve_v the_o heart_n of_o he_o he_o dear_o love_v because_o the_o great_a kindness_n the_o more_o wound_v be_v any_o thing_n that_o look_v like_o the_o contrary_a our_o saviour_n be_v tender_a towards_o john_n who_o happy_o can_v not_o have_v bear_v a_o reproof_n without_o much_o heart_n break_v trouble_n because_o of_o his_o transcendent_a affection_n to_o his_o lord_n no_o person_n more_o considerate_a than_o our_o lord_n who_o be_v compassion_n itself_o the_o man_n christ_n jesus_n be_v a_o man_n of_o bowel_n as_o we_o perceive_v by_o his_o lament_v over_o jerusalem_n luk_n 19_o 42_o 48._o yet_o we_o find_v that_o our_o saviour_n be_v more_o compassionate_a to_o some_o than_o other_o according_a as_o his_o affection_n be_v set_v the_o jew_n observe_v he_o weep_v for_o lazarus_n when_o he_o be_v dead_a and_o why_o so_o because_o he_o love_v he_o as_o appear_v by_o that_o passage_n in_o john_n 11._o 3._o lord_n he_o who_o thou_o love_v be_v sick_a and_o we_o see_v by_o that_o passage_n of_o the_o young_a man_n in_o the_o gospel_n that_o our_o saviour_n can_v love_v a_o man_n for_o any_o worthy_a quality_n or_o moral_a aceommodation_n the_o text_n say_v he_o look_v upon_o he_o and_o love_v he_o not_o that_o he_o see_v his_o own_o image_n upon_o his_o heart_n for_o this_o he_o have_v not_o as_o be_v evident_a because_o he_o part_v with_o our_o saviour_n but_o see_v reason_n in_o his_o witty_a answer_n which_o please_v our_o saviour_n so_o that_o he_o give_v he_o a_o outward_a commendation_n suitable_a to_o his_o superficial_a acquirement_n six_o the_o constant_a communion_n between_o our_o saviour_n and_o john_n be_v another_o argument_n to_o prove_v the_o friendship_n john_n be_v very_o rare_o separate_v from_o our_o lord_n before_o his_o death_n and_o after_o his_o rise_n again_o while_o he_o be_v upon_o the_o earth_n peter_n take_v notice_n that_o this_o disciple_n be_v follow_v christ_n after_o his_o arise_v from_o the_o dead_a and_o seem_v to_o be_v much_o concern_v about_o he_o how_o he_o shall_v be_v dispose_v of_o be_v to_o leave_v his_o dear_a lord_n and_o thereupon_o make_v this_o question_n to_o our_o lord_n lord_n what_o shall_v this_o man_n do_v as_o be_v he_o have_v say_v our_o loss_n be_v great_a but_o his_o much_o great_a as_o indeed_o it_o be_v john_n 21._o 22._o our_o saviour_n answer_n seem_v to_o check_v peter_n curiosity_n if_o i_o will_v that_o he_o tarry_v till_o i_o come_v what_o be_v that_o to_o thou_o the_o method_n of_o kindness_n between_o christ_n and_o john_n be_v not_o fit_a to_o be_v inquire_v into_o as_o be_v evident_a by_o our_o saviour_n more_o than_a tacit_a rebuke_v to_o peter_n it_o be_v most_o probable_a that_o john_n see_v our_o saviour_n before_o any_o of_o the_o rest_n aster_n his_o resurrection_n because_o he_o come_v with_o he_o when_o our_o lord_n appear_v to_o they_o for_o peter_n take_v special_a notice_n john_n 21._o 20._o that_o he_o see_v that_o disciple_n follow_v our_o saviour_n by_o which_o it_o be_v evident_a he_o be_v not_o among_o they_o and_o it_o be_v observable_a that_o john_n be_v seldom_o call_v by_o the_o disciple_n or_o know_v by_o any_o other_o denomination_n but_o these_o viz._n the_o other_o disciple_n or_o the_o disciple_n who_o jesus_n love_v i_o conceive_v the_o disciple_n may_v so_o srequent_o give_v he_o those_o title_n either_o as_o title_n of_o honour_n to_o signify_v the_o relation_n in_o which_o he_o stand_v to_o our_o lord_n or_o because_o it_o please_v our_o saviour_n that_o his_o affection_n to_o i●hn_n shall_v be_v observe_v and_o take_v notice_n of_o probable_o that_o a_o suitable_a respect_n may_v be_v give_v unto_o he_o as_o the_o friend_n of_o christ_n for_o our_o saviour_n be_v not_o ashamed_a to_o own_o this_o relation_n but_o public_o upon_o the_o cross_n signify_v it_o to_o man_n and_o angel_n as_o will_v appear_v further_o in_o the_o seven_o and_o last_o particular_a but_o i_o submit_v to_o better_a judgement_n in_o this_o matter_n and_o only_o give_v my_o notion_n of_o it_o and_o what_o seem_v most_o rational_a to_o i_o but_o this_o be_v evident_a our_o saviour_n and_o john_n have_v much_o communion_n they_o be_v still_o together_o in_o his_o transfiguration_n conversation_n and_o communication_n he_o never_o leave_v our_o saviour_n while_n on_o earth_n you_o shall_v find_v he_o in_o the_o garden_n and_o in_o the_o high-priest_n hall_n where_o peter_n deny_v he_o in_o the_o one_o and_o desert_v he_o in_o the_o other_o he_o be_v with_o he_o at_o the_o cross_n and_o at_o the_o sepulchre_n and_o not_o wonder_v that_o our_o saviour_n delight_v in_o the_o society_n of_o that_o person_n he_o will_v take_v into_o his_o bosom_n and_o john_n be_v so_o improve_v by_o this_o communion_n with_o his_o lord_n that_o he_o speak_v and_o write_v nothing_o but_o love_n and_o this_o will_v appear_v a_o great_a confirmation_n of_o the_o friendship_n if_o we_o compare_v it_o with_o the_o friendship_n between_o ingenious_a man_n obferve_v and_o you_o shall_v find_v that_o when_o friendship_n be_v in_o reality_n it_o mighty_o sweeten_v the_o nature_n of_o those_o person_n so_o that_o they_o can_v endure_v harshness_n and_o crossness_n but_o endeavour_v all_o thing_n with_o all_o person_n by_o love_n man_n in_o their_o communication_n and_o conversation_n be_v as_o much_o as_o they_o be_v with_o who_o they_o converse_v there_o be_v no_o argument_n more_o pregnant_a to_o prove_v the_o dear_a and_o near_a communion_n and_o union_n between_o our_o lord_n and_o john_n than_o the_o strain_n of_o love_n that_o run_v through_o all_o his_o writing_n by_o which_o we_o may_v judge_v of_o the_o intercourse_n between_o our_o lord_n and_o he_o and_o what_o manner_n of_o expression_n they_o be_v that_o pass_v between_o they_o in_o their_o particular_a act_n of_o friendship_n seven_o and_o last_o the_o last_o argument_n may_v be_v draw_v srom_fw-mi our_o saviour_n last_o act_n of_o friendship_n towards_o john_n and_o be_v sufficient_a have_v there_o be_v no_o more_o to_o prove_v this_o friendship_n viz._n his_o recommend_v his_o mother_n to_o john_n when_o he_o be_v upon_o the_o cross_n john_n 19_o 26._o 27._o and_o breathe_v out_o his_o last_o breath_n express_v in_o this_o last_o passage_n woman_n behold_v thy_o son_n and_o he_o say_v to_o the_o disciple_n who_o he_o love_v behold_v thy_o mother_n and_o from_o that_o hour_n that_o disciple_n take_v she_o to_o his_o own_o home_n you_o see_v here_o the_o union_n that_o be_v between_o our_o saviour_n and_o john_n they_o be_v brother_n though_o the_o relation_n of_o brother_n precise_o consider_v do_v not_o make_v friend_n yet_o the_o relation_n of_o friend_n always_o make_v brother_n our_o saviour_n by_o this_o charge_n to_o john_n do_v imply_v thus_o much_o that_o though_o his_o mother_n have_v lose_v he_o she_o have_v a_o son_n still_o that_o be_v oblige_v to_o take_v a_o special_a care_n of_o she_o upon_o a_o double_a account_n partly_o in_o obedience_n to_o his_o dear_a master_n who_o have_v lay_v that_o command_n upon_o he_o but_o most_o especial_o by_o that_o tie_n of_o friendship_n that_o be_v upon_o he_o so_o he_o take_v his_o last_o farewell_n of_o john_n and_o his_o mother_n together_o express_v his_o natural_a affection_n towards_o the_o one_o his_o friendship_n towards_o the_o other_o there_o be_v no_o great_a evidence_n of_o friendship_n than_o this_o the_o confidence_n die_v person_n have_v in_o their_o live_a friend_n and_o the_o trust_v they_o impose_v in_o they_o as_o to_o their_o dear_a and_o near_a relation_n and_o how_o secret_a soever_o friend_n may_v carry_v it_o in_o their_o life_n yet_o at_o their_o death_n they_o declare_v to_o all_o the_o world_n who_o they_o take_v to_o be_v their_o most_o faithful_a friend_n when_o they_o commit_v their_o dear_a relation_n to_o their_o charge_n and_o bestow_v their_o last_o breath_n upon_o they_o by_o a_o tremble_a farewell_n we_o do_v not_o read_v that_o our_o saviour_n speak_v one_o word_n more_o after_o he_o have_v take_v his_o solemn_a farewell_n of_o his_o mother_n and_o john_n but_o this_o i_o thirst_v and_o it_o be_v finish_v thus_o you_o see_v the_o friendship_n between_o our_o saviour_n and_o john_n clear_v i_o shall_v draw_v to_o a_o conclusion_n of_o this_o whole_a discourse_n only_o give_v i_o leave_v to_o add_v these_o few_o word_n which_o i_o hope_v will_v not_o be_v impertinent_a if_o friendship_n be_v the_o improvement_n of_o reason_n the_o happiness_n of_o a_o sociable_a state_n the_o pleasure_n of_o our_o lord_n than_o it_o be_v great_a pity_n this_o relation_n and_o state_n of_o friendship_n be_v no_o more_o in_o credit_n in_o the_o world_n than_o it_o be_v especial_o among_o ingenious_a person_n who_o seem_v to_o mistake_v this_o great_a case_n or_o think_v it_o too_o hard_a a_o task_n to_o accomplish_v first_o believe_v that_o it_o be_v attainable_a this_o be_v the_o first_o step_n towards_o it_o and_o that_o it_o be_v not_o a_o study_n too_o mean_v for_o the_o great_a prince_n in_o the_o world_n and_o which_o be_v more_o he_o can_v hardly_o be_v happy_a without_o it_o if_o he_o consider_v the_o direction_n he_o may_v have_v in_o his_o weighty_a affair_n by_o the_o wisdom_n the_o safety_n he_o he_o may_v promise_v himself_o in_o the_o faithfulness_n the_o wonderful_a pleasure_n and_o delightful_a diversion_n he_o may_v enjoy_v in_o the_o society_n and_o integrity_n of_o a_o suitable_a friend_n i_o can_v believe_v but_o all_o person_n serious_a and_o judicious_a must_v need_v ambition_n this_o capacity_n yet_o they_o do_v not_o all_o attain_v it_o be_v possible_o cross_v by_o accident_n unfriendly_a and_o unreasonable_a in_o their_o endeavour_n after_o it_o the_o way_n of_o virtue_n be_v strew_v with_o thorn_n well_o if_o the_o way_n be_v not_o so_o grateful_a and_o easy_a as_o that_o which_o be_v sensual_a yet_o the_o end_n will_v be_v glory_n let_v this_o qui●ken_v your_o endeavour_n to_o that_o end_n which_o will_v crown_v your_o action_n and_o when_o you_o have_v obtain_v perfection_n here_o you_o will_v
