and_o scandal_n the_o saint_n on_o earth_n three_o we_o sad_a the_o bless_a angel_n in_o heaven_n and_o four_a rejoice_v the_o devil_n and_o damn_a spirit_n in_o hell_n put_v dart_n and_o deadly_a weapon_n into_o their_o hand_n to_o work_v our_o ruin_n and_o overthrow_v nay_o five_o we_o grieve_v the_o good_a spirit_n of_o god_n who_o continual_o put_v we_o in_o mind_n of_o better_a thing_n if_o we_o will_v hearken_v to_o he_o and_o by_o who_o we_o be_v seal_v up_o unto_o the_o day_n of_o redemption_n sixthly_a we_o slacken_v grace_n in_o our_o heart_n and_o whereas_o we_o shall_v grow_v

of_o his_o favour_n towards_o we_o yea_o often_o time_n by_o so_o sin_v many_o of_o his_o dear_a child_n have_v walk_v heavy_o without_o spiritual_a joy_n all_o the_o day_n of_o their_o life_n for_o howsoever_o in_o regard_n the_o lord_n have_v elect_v we_o we_o shall_v never_o final_o fall_v away_o and_o perish_v yet_o we_o may_v want_v the_o sweet_a sense_n of_o his_o favour_n and_o remain_v afflict_v in_o spirit_n all_o our_o life_n long_o and_o then_o we_o shall_v know_v that_o the_o grief_n and_o trouble_n note_n which_o we_o here_o undergo_v to_o avoid_v sin_n and_o subdue_v it_o will_v be_v nothing_o so_o much_o as_o the_o mischief_n and_o sosrow_n that_o sin_n once_o commit_v and_o yield_v too_o will_v bring_v on_o the_o soul_n yea_o there_o be_v no_o child_n of_o god_n but_o by_o experience_n shall_v one_o day_n feel_v that_o howsoever_o god_n by_o his_o wisdom_n and_o mercy_n can_v turn_v every_o sin_n to_o our_o good_a yet_o it_o will_v prove_v bitter_a as_o wormwood_n in_o the_o end_n the_o pleasure_n will_v never_o answer_v the_o smart_n and_o vexation_n that_o attend_v it_o the_o contrition_n and_o break_n of_o thy_o heart_n for_o thy_o sin_n commit_v if_o thou_o be_v god_n will_n more_o disquiet_a and_o trouble_v thou_o than_o possible_o it_o can_v be_v a_o trouble_n to_o resist_v and_o forsake_v sin_n nay_o oftentimes_o god_n do_v punish_v the_o very_a want_n of_o reverence_n in_o his_o servant_n to_o he_o as_o also_o their_o slackness_n and_o unfitnesse_n in_o good_a duty_n so_o as_o they_o may_v easy_o discern_v he_o be_v offend_v with_o

some_o of_o they_o be_v sick_a and_o some_o weak_a and_o some_o be_v strike_v by_o death_n david_n number_v of_o the_o people_n &_o hezekias_n show_v of_o his_o treasure_n to_o the_o prince_n of_o babel_n howsoever_o by_o some_o they_o may_v be_v think_v small_a sin_n yet_o god_n scourge_v they_o for_o the_o same_o very_o sharp_o and_o it_o be_v good_a that_o god_n servant_n shall_v a_o little_a know_v what_o it_o be_v to_o offend_v their_o maker_n for_o if_o they_o will_v be_v so_o negligent_a and_o careless_a in_o walk_v with_o he_o it_o be_v fit_a they_o shall_v reap_v the_o fruit_n of_o their_o own_o device_n it_o cause_v much_o relapse_v and_o backslide_v from_o god_n when_o man_n have_v never_o true_o smart_v for_o their_o sin_n have_v have_v knock_v in_o our_o own_o way_n it_o establish_v we_o in_o god_n way_n for_o we_o love_v to_o wander_v from_o ourselves_o and_o bite_v stranger_n at_o home_n till_o god_n by_o one_o cross_n or_o other_o bring_v we_o to_o himself_o and_o then_o we_o think_v of_o return_v to_o he_o nay_o it_o be_v better_a for_o they_o a_o thousand_o fold_n that_o god_n shall_v so_o school_v they_o then_o that_o they_o shall_v be_v let_v alone_o and_o so_o go_v on_o without_o controlment_n from_o sin_n to_o sin_n till_o they_o come_v to_o desperation_n howsoever_o therefore_o that_o god_n can_v and_o will_v turn_v the_o sin_n of_o his_o servant_n to_o their_o best_a advantage_n yet_o better_o it_o be_v for_o they_o they_o have_v never_o sin_v at_o all_o do_v we_o not_o think_v that_o david_n wish_v he_o have_v never_o fall_v into_o that_o sin_n of_o adultery_n and_o will_v not_o peter_n have_v be_v glad_a that_o he_o have_v never_o deny_v his_o master_n the_o sin_n of_o david_n cost_v he_o many_o a_o cry_n for_o pardon_n mercy_n lord_n mercy_n against_o thou_o have_v i_o sin_v forgive_v i_o this_o heinous_a crime_n and_o it_o cost_v peter_n many_o a_o bitter_a salt_n tear_v too_o howsoever_o both_o david_n and_o peter_n after_o their_o recovery_n by_o repentance_n be_v the_o better_a for_o it_o to_o their_o die_a day_n as_o for_o all_o such_o as_o persist_v in_o sin_n that_o god_n may_v turn_v all_o
