i_o see_v thou_o have_v not_o withhold_v thy_o son_n thy_o only_a son_n from_o i_o he_o have_v but_o one_o dear_o belove_a son_n and_o he_o offer_v he_o to_o god_n &_o th●…n_o god_n say_v i_o know_v thou_o fear_v i_o because_o thou_o have_v not_o withhold_v thy_o son_n this_o be_v to_o sacrifice_v indeed_o and_o in_o truth_n so_o we_o must_v sacrifice_v indeed_o and_o in_o truth_n but_o god_n do_v not_o require_v we_o to_o sacrifice_v our_o son_n but_o our_o belove_a sin_n our_o dear_a sin_n god_n call_v we_o this_o day_n to_o part_v with_o all_o our_o sin_n though_o never_o so_o belove_v and_o we_o must_v not_o withhold_v any_o of_o they_o from_o he_o if_o we_o will_v not_o part_v with_o all_o it_o be_v not_o a_o right_a sacrifice_n we_o must_v part_v with_o those_o sin_n we_o love_v best_a and_o then_o we_o offer_v a_o good_a sacrifice_n again_o god_n smell_v a_o sweet_a savour_n in_o noah_n sacrifice_n &_o so_o when_o we_o offer_v such_o worship_n to_o god_n as_o be_v clean_o and_o pure_a and_o sacrifice_n as_o abraham_n do_v than_o god_n accept_v our_o sacrifice_n again_o god_n manifest_v his_o acceptance_n of_o noah_n sacrifice_n by_o promise_v to_o drown_v the_o world_n no_o more_o but_o give_v he_o fruitful_a time_n and_o season_n god_n have_v chastise_v we_o of_o late_a with_o such_o reins_n as_o if_o he_o will_v drown_v we_o and_o he_o have_v drown_v and_o spoil_v a_o great_a deal_n of_o hay_n and_o threaten_v to_o kill_v our_o cattle_n and_o for_o this_o we_o fast_o and_o pray_v this_o day_n now_o if_o we_o offer_v a_o spiritual_a sacrifice_n clean_a and_o pure_a as_o noah_n do_v than_o god_n will_v smell_v a_o savour_n of_o rest_n in_o we_o as_o he_o do_v in_o noah_n and_o then_o he_o will_v withhold_v the_o rain_n and_o give_v we_o fruitful_a season_n these_o two_o before_o mention_v do_v exercise_v the_o fore_a part_n of_o the_o day_n beside_o what_o we_o do_v the_o four_o next_o exercise_v in_o the_o afternoon_n the_o first_o of_o which_o be_v

that_o see_v in_o secret_a shall_v reward_v thou_o open_o a_o little_a i_o will_v speak_v according_a to_o that_o poor_a little_a i_o know_v the_o doctrine_n that_o christ_n teach_v we_o in_o these_o

there_o be_v many_o cause_n of_o prayer_n to_o god_n this_o day_n as_o to_o prepare_v our_o heart_n for_o church_n covenant_n and_o ordinance_n and_o to_o pray_v for_o the_o take_v away_o our_o

because_o your_o heart_n be_v so_o full_a of_o sorrow_n no_o matter_n for_o meat_n then_o your_o tear_n and_o sigh_n and_o sorrow_n fill_v you_o so_o that_o you_o can_v eat_v so_o that_o fast_v be_v a_o help_n to_o mourning_n now_o this_o day_n be_v a_o day_n of_o mourning_n and_o what_o do_v we_o mourn_v for_o not_o for_o a_o child_n or_o a_o friend_n but_o a_o great_a matter_n we_o must_v mourn_v for_o our_o sin_n and_o we_o shall_v be_v so_o fill_v and_o possess_v with_o mourning_n for_o our_o si●…s_n that_o we_o shall_v forget_v hunger_n you_o so_o afflict_v in_o our_o heart_n that_o we_o can_v eat_v though_o it_o shall_v be_v offfer_v to_o we_o our_o heart_n shall_v be_v so_o full_a of_o sorrow_n that_o we_o can_v be_v a_o hungry_a nor_o eat_v again_o we_o fast_o that_o we_o may_v repent_v of_o our_o sin_n and_o amend_v our_o life_n according_a to_o that_o matth._n 3._o 8._o bring_v forth_o therefore_o fruit_n meet_v for_o repentance_n this_o be_v a_o day_n of_o repentance_n we_o must_v therefore_o fast_o this_o day_n so_o as_o become_v repentance_n therefore_o we_o must_v confess_v our_o sin_n and_o we_o must_v mourn_v for_o our_o sin_n and_o we_o must_v forsake_v our_o sin_n for_o these_o be_v work_n meet_v for_o repentance_n again_o we_o must_v not_o be_v like_o hypocrite_n in_o our_o fast_n for_o they_o disfigure_v their_o face_n and_o seem_v to_o man_n as_o if_o they_o mourn_v and_o fast_v and_o repent_v but_o in_o their_o heart_n they_o do_v not_o so_o and_o therefore_o god_n who_o know_v what_o be_v in_o the_o heart_n and_o see_v in_o secret_a he_o do_v know_v their_o hypocrisy_n and_o so_o he_o know_v our_o hypocrisy_n if_o we_o come_v here_o and_o appear_v to_o man_n as_o if_o we_o fast_v and_o yet_o in_o our_o heart_n we_o fast_v not_o if_o we_o do_v not_o mourn_v and_o repent_v for_o sin_n we_o do_v not_o fast_o god_n do_v not_o account_v that_o to_o be_v a_o fast_n again_o such_o as_o fast_o a_o hypocritical_a fast_n they_o shall_v be_v sure_a to_o be_v reward_v and_o what_o reward_n will_v god_n give_v to_o such_o as_o fast_o like_o hypocrite_n i_o answer_v that_o you_o may_v see_v what_o the_o wage_n of_o

people_n be_v at_o a_o wedding_n there_o be_v feast_n and_o joy_n and_o mirth_n but_o no_o sorrow_n nor_o mourn_a nor_o weep_v so_o when_o christ_n be_v with_o his_o people_n he_o bring_v joy_n and_o
