count_v sweet_a that_o if_o god_n be_v please_v to_o give_v they_o if_o god_n be_v please_v to_o deny_v they_o still_o to_o be_v content_v our_o new_a life_n will_v also_o have_v a_o new_a appetite_n a_o desire_n after_o spiritual_a food_n a_o sign_n of_o grace_n than_o which_o i_o know_v none_o more_o common_a or_o better_a for_o such_o as_o the_o life_n be_v such_o be_v the_o nourishment_n and_o choice_n of_o food_n but_o i_o will_v rather_o enlarge_v myself_o upon_o one_o other_o instance_n the_o instance_n of_o spiritual_a motion_n but_o because_o motion_n may_v be_v find_v in_o diverse_a thing_n this_o rule_n must_v be_v distinct_o examine_v prayer_n read_v hear_v meditation_n be_v motion_n and_o man_n no_o other_o than_o natural_a perform_v they_o the_o difference_n be_v from_o the_o

but_o a_o engine_n but_o man_n move_v from_o a_o principle_n of_o life_n and_o have_v of_o his_o own_o a_o loco-motive_n faculty_n if_o natural_a man_n be_v upon_o a_o good_a motion_n it_o be_v because_o something_o wind_v they_o up_o for_o you_o may_v peg_n and_o strain_n the_o natural_a to_o what_o you_o will_v by_o present_v such_o respect_n as_o please_v they_o &_o then_o set_v they_o on_o go_v but_o the_o motion_n will_v not_o hold_v but_o the_o christian_n be_v from_o life_n christ_n be_v form_v in_o they_o &_o they_o live_v by_o the_o faith_n of_o the_o son_n of_o god_n we_o

for_o i_o can_v hardly_o leave_v this_o meditation_n our_o spiritual_a life_n will_v show_v itself_o in_o the_o uniformity_n of_o our_o motion_n it_o be_v right_a not_o circular_a man_n move_v not_o

of_o it_o be_v three_o 1._o contrition_n i_o mean_v a_o outward_a contrition_n for_o of_o inward_a sorrow_n i_o speak_v before_o the_o penitent_a magdalen_n abound_v in_o tear_n they_o run_v down_o like_o water_n that_o she_o wash_v the_o foot_n of_o our_o saviour_n with_o they_o so_o peter_n weep_v bitter_o he_o draw_v plenty_n of_o that_o water_n i_o can_v credit_v every_o wet_a eye_n for_o

of_o dry_a constitution_n when_o we_o can_v be_v apt_a enough_o to_o shed_v tear_n for_o other_o cause_n tear_n of_o anger_n tear_n of_o grief_n tear_n of_o sullenness_n and_o then_o if_o we_o have_v none_o for_o sin_n it_o be_v a_o argument_n of_o deceitful_a carnal_a heart_n for_o if_o we_o have_v not_o hard_a heart_n we_o shall_v not_o have_v such_o dry_a eye_n 2._o confession_n david_n be_v

not_o ashamed_a to_o sin_n before_o man_n why_o then_o shall_v we_o be_v ashamed_a to_o confess_v our_o sin_n but_o oh_o when_o shall_v our_o congregation_n be_v witness_n of_o our_o public_a

good_a creature_n of_o god_n i_o now_o acknowledge_v in_o the_o face_n and_o sight_n of_o heaven_n how_o i_o have_v offend_v when_o shall_v we_o see_v the_o unclean_a person_n prevent_v a_o censure_n by_o a_o voluntary_a penance_n oh_o when_o when_o there_o must_v be_v some_o suitableness_n in_o our_o confession_n of_o sin_n unto_o our_o sin_n 3._o satisfaction_n that_o discipline_n those_o

must_v in_o some_o kind_n or_o other_o be_v witness_v by_o this_o so_o zacheus_n witness_v the_o truth_n of_o he_o and_o the_o reprobated_a judas_n will_v condemn_v our_o neglect_n he_o sorrow_v for_o
