this_o case_n for_o that_o thereby_o we_o purchase_v a_o inestimable_a glory_n for_o a_o short_a pass_a combat_n the_o comfort_n whereof_o neither_o eye_n have_v see_v ear_n have_v hear_v nor_o any_o

be_v suffer_v in_o the_o world_n and_o therefore_o be_v our_o change_n most_o happy_a that_o by_o the_o pain_n of_o a_o short_a life_n avoid_v the_o misery_n of_o a_o eternal_a death_n and_o deserve_v the_o unspeakable_a happiness_n of_o the_o life_n everlasting_a for_o this_o cause_n say_v saint_n james_n think_v you_o it_o all_o joy_n my_o brethren_n when_o you_o shall_v fall_v into_o diverse_a temptation_n know_v that_o the_o trial_n of_o your_o faith_n work_v patience_n and_o patience_n have_v a_o perfect_a work_n that_o you_o may_v be_v perfect_a and_o entire_a fail_v in_o nothing_o the_o three_o consideration_n of_o the_o watchfulness_n and_o attention_n require_v in_o the_o care_n of_o our_o soul_n see_v this_o weighty_a affair_n of_o our_o soul_n health_n be_v hem_v in_o and_o beset_v with_o so_o manifest_a peril_n and_o trouble_n it_o stand_v we_o upon_o most_o watchful_o to_o take_v heed_n to_o every_o thought_n word_n and_o deed_n that_o pass_v lest_o through_o the_o number_n and_o subtlety_n of_o enemy_n train_n we_o be_v often_o entrap_v for_o it_o be_v hard_o to_o touch_v pitch_n and_o not_o be_v defile_v to_o live_v in_o flesh_n a_o spiritual_a life_n to_o converse_v in_o the_o world_n without_o worldly_a affection_n wherefore_o as_o a_o legate_n that_o be_v to_o deliver_v his_o embassage_n before_o a_o great_a presence_n of_o peer_n and_o noble_n have_v not_o only_a regard_n to_o his_o matter_n but_o also_o to_o his_o word_n voyee_o and_o action_n that_o all_o be_v suitable_a to_o his_o message_n so_o we_o have_v to_o work_v this_o exploit_n of_o our_o soul_n before_o god_n and_o all_o the_o court_n of_o heaven_n and_o also_o before_o the_o eye_n of_o those_o that_o lay_v wait_v to_o take_v we_o in_o any_o trip_n aught_o to_o be_v very_o wary_a even_o in_o our_o least_o thought_n and_o deed_n for_o fear_v lest_o we_o offend_v the_o presence_n of_o god_n and_o give_v occasion_n of_o triumph_n and_o victory_n unto_o our_o deadly_a foe_n and_o for_o this_o say_v the_o scripture_n keep_v thyself_o very_o watchful_o second_o to_o attain_v this_o diligent_a and_o attentive_a care_n in_o all_o our_o action_n let_v we_o consider_v what_o man_n use_v to_o do_v that_o carry_v great_a treasure_n by_o place_n haunt_v with_o thief_n how_o wary_o they_o look_v to_o their_o way_n how_o often_o they_o turn_v about_o they_o how_o many_o time_n they_o prepare_v themselves_o sometime_o to_o fight_v and_o other_o while_n to_o run_v away_o likewise_o how_o wary_o he_o walk_v and_o how_o careful_a he_o be_v never_o to_o stumble_v nor_o fall_v that_o carry_v in_o each_o hand_n a_o thin_a glass_n of_o precious_a liquor_n through_o stony_a and_o rough_a place_n and_o when_o we_o have_v mark_v these_o man_n carefulness_n in_o these_o inferior_a matter_n let_v we_o remember_v that_o much_o more_o respect_n be_v necessary_a in_o we_o who_o treasure_n be_v more_o precious_a than_o any_o worldly_a jewel_n and_o yet_o do_v we_o carry_v it_o in_o earthen_a and_o frail_a vessel_n in_o the_o midst_n of_o so_o many_o thief_n as_o there_o be_v passion_n and_o disorder_a appetite_n in_o we_o as_o there_o be_v devil_n in_o wait_n for_o we_o and_o as_o there_o be_v stumble_a stone_n and_o occasion_n of_o sin_n set_v round_o about_o we_o to_o procure_v this_o attention_n the_o most_o effectual_a help_n be_v these_o first_o to_o think_v how_o careful_a we_o shall_v be_v to_o do_v all_o thing_n well_o if_o this_o present_a day_n be_v the_o last_o that_o ever_o we_o shall_v live_v in_o this_o world_n as_o peradventure_o it_o may_v be_v and_o that_o at_o the_o end_n thereof_o we_o be_v to_o be_v convent_v before_o a_o most_o severe_a and_o rigorous_a judge_n who_o according_a to_o the_o desert_n of_o that_o day_n action_n shall_v pass_v the_o sentence_n of_o life_n or_o death_n upon_o us._n second_o to_o remember_v that_o god_n be_v in_o his_o own_o substance_n power_n and_o true_a presence_n in_o every_o place_n and_o see_v both_o our_o outward_a and_o inward_a action_n more_o than_o we_o ourselves_o and_o therefore_o let_v we_o seek_v in_o every_o thing_n so_o to_o behave_v ourselves_o that_o we_o fear_v not_o to_o have_v god_n a_o witness_n and_o beholder_n of_o all_o that_o we_o do_v think_v or_o say_v and_o let_v we_o ask_v he_o grace_n to_o do_v nothing_o unworthy_a his_o fight_n three_o we_o must_v consider_v the_o carelessness_n of_o our_o life_n past_a remember_v how_o often_o we_o have_v fight_v against_o god_n with_o his_o own_o weapon_n and_o abuse_v the_o force_n that_o he_o have_v afford_v in_o every_o part_n of_o our_o body_n and_o mind_n and_o therefore_o as_o saint_n paul_n warn_v as_o we_o have_v exhibit_v our_o member_n to_o serve_v uncleanness_n and_o iniquity_n so_o let_v we_o now_o exhibit_v our_o member_n to_o serve_v justice_n unto_o sanctification_n four_o to_o procure_v this_o attention_n it_o be_v good_a oftentimes_o in_o the_o day_n when_o we_o eat_v about_o our_o ordinary_a action_n to_o use_v godly_a prayer_n and_o some_o verse_n out_o of_o the_o psalm_n with_o petition_n unto_o god_n for_o his_o grace_n aid_n and_o assistance_n for_o such_o godly_a exercise_n be_v fuel_n of_o devotion_n cause_n of_o attention_n food_n of_o the_o soul_n preparative_n against_o temptation_n and_o assure_v help_n to_o attain_v any_o virtue_n therefore_o it_o be_v good_a to_o use_v they_o in_o lieu_n of_o sight_n and_o in_o the_o begin_n of_o every_o chief_a action_n direct_v therein_o our_o intention_n and_o action_n to_o god_n glory_n and_o service_n and_o our_o own_o fowl_n good_a health_n and_o fafetie_n the_o last_o consideration_n of_o the_o necessity_n of_o perseverance_n in_o continue_v watchful_a over_o ourselves_o first_o see_v the_o sum_n and_o compliment_n of_o all_o virtue_n consist_v in_o the_o continuance_n and_o progress_n of_o it_o perseverance_n of_o all_o other_o thing_n be_v most_o necessary_a in_o this_o business_n to_o the_o better_a attain_n whereof_o these_o consideration_n may_v prevail_v first_o to_o consider_v by_o who_o instinct_n and_o motion_n i_o begin_v to_o take_v special_a care_n of_o my_o soul_n and_o i_o shall_v find_v that_o be_v a_o thing_n contrary_n to_o the_o inclination_n of_o flesh_n and_o blood_n and_o above_o the_o reach_n of_o nature_n to_o resolve_v upon_o so_o painful_a and_o wary_a a_o course_n in_o hope_n of_o a_o reward_n and_o joy_v that_o faith_n do_v promise_n that_o i_o say_v god_n only_o and_o no_o other_o be_v the_o author_n and_o mover_n of_o my_o heart_n unto_o it_o and_o therefore_o unless_o i_o mean_v direct_o to_o resist_v god_n and_o run_v a_o contrary_a course_n to_o that_o which_o he_o prescribe_v i_o must_v resolve_v myself_o to_o persevere_v unto_o the_o end_n in_o that_o which_o i_o have_v happy_o begin_v second_o the_o end_n of_o this_o enterprise_n be_v to_o serve_v god_n to_o bewail_v my_o former_a sin_n and_o to_o work_v by_o god_n help_v the_o salvation_n of_o my_o own_o soul_n and_o when_o i_o resolve_v upon_o these_o mean_n i_o be_v free_a from_o passion_n and_o as_o well_o able_a to_o choose_v thing_n convenient_a as_o i_o can_v at_o any_o other_o time_n and_o whole_o bend_v to_o do_v that_o thing_n which_o be_v for_o my_o great_a good_a wherefore_o see_v i_o can_v never_o aim_v at_o a_o better_a end_n nor_o be_v in_o better_a plight_n to_o make_v a_o sound_a choice_n my_o sure_a way_n be_v to_o persevere_v still_o in_o my_o resolution_n to_o the_o end_n never_o alter_v my_o designment_n unless_o it_o be_v to_o further_a my_o course_n three_o i_o must_v consider_v who_o be_v that_o that_o will_v make_v i_o forsake_v it_o for_o if_o god_n move_v i_o unto_o it_o doubtless_o it_o be_v the_o devil_n will_v move_v i_o from_o it_o for_o god_n can_v be_v contrary_a to_o himself_o neither_o use_v he_o to_o alter_v our_o mind_n but_o only_o from_o evil_a to_o good_a or_o from_o good_a to_o better_v therefore_o unless_o i_o mean_v to_o yield_v willing_o to_o the_o devil_n and_o to_o follow_v my_o enemy_n counsel_n to_o my_o own_o perdition_n i_o must_v persevere_v unto_o the_o end_n for_o with_o what_o pretext_n soever_o the_o devil_n seek_v to_o cover_v his_o motion_n sure_o it_o be_v that_o his_o drift_n be_v to_o draw_v i_o from_o god_n and_o goodness_n and_o to_o damn_v my_o soul_n for_o how_o can_v he_o intend_v any_o thing_n for_o my_o good_a
