when_o with_o his_o cheerful_a beam_n he_o do_v cherish_v the_o ground_n all_o thing_n begin_v to_o prosper_v and_o to_o bud_v forth_o so_o when_o the_o sun_n of_o our_o righteousness_n christ_n our_o lord_n do_v cheerful_o shine_v into_o our_o heart_n and_o soul_n with_o his_o heavenly_a and_o comfortable_a presence_n he_o make_v we_o to_o bring_v forth_o good_a fruit_n and_o such_o good_a work_n as_o shall_v be_v acceptable_a unto_o he_o for_o his_o holy_a spirit_n and_o grace_n where_o it_o light_v be_v wonderful_a fruitful_a and_o that_o hart_n of_o man_n or_o woman_n which_o want_v the_o

presence_n do_v rest_n in_o our_o heart_n and_o soul_n we_o be_v prepare_v to_o evergy_n good_a work_n but_o when_o he_o be_v absent_a the_o door_n be_v open_a to_o all_o vice_n and_o wickedness_n

cheerful_a and_o joyful_a and_o when_o he_o be_v absent_a we_o be_v sad_a and_o heavy_a in_o the_o land_n of_o egypt_n there_o be_v most_o thick_a darkness_n that_o it_o may_v be_v feel_v but_o in_o

great_a difference_n be_v there_o betwixt_o the_o grace_n of_o god_n and_o our_o sinful_a disposition_n the_o five_o and_o last_o inconvenience_n of_o a_o sinner_n separate_v from_o god_n be_v that_o when_o he_o be_v debar_v of_o his_o mercy_n he_o be_v present_o subject_a to_o his_o anger_n and_o to_o his_o wrath_n he_o that_o be_v far_a from_o god_n favour_n be_v near_a to_o his_o punishment_n as_o may_v be_v see_v in_o the_o prophet_n jonas_n who_o fly_v from_o god_n be_v cast_v into_o the_o sea_n he_o flee_v from_o god_n when_o he_o command_v he_o and_o fall_v into_o his_o punishment_n when_o he_o think_v lest_o thereof_o if_o thy_o son_n fall_v sick_a at_o thy_o house_n thou_o may_v have_v many_o help_n to_o restore_v he_o again_o but_o if_o he_o be_v sick_a in_o a_o strange_a

a_o weak_a and_o frail_a sinner_n although_o he_o often_o fall_v may_v be_v recover_v and_o the_o godly_a which_o pertain_v to_o god_n and_o be_v under_o his_o government_n they_o fall_v not_o final_o but_o rise_v again_o but_o they_o which_o be_v past_a grace_n which_o be_v harden_v in_o wickedness_n and_o multiply_v sin_n for_o the_o most_o part_n do_v perish_v for_o ever_o whereof_o there_o be_v two_o notable_a example_n record_v in_o scripture_n the_o one_o of_o peter_n the_o other_o of_o judas_n the_o traitor_n peter_n deny_v the_o lord_n thrice_o but_o because_o he_o repent_v in_o hart_n

then_o in_o his_o company_n no_o marvel_n therefore_o though_o he_o die_v in_o his_o sin_n and_o because_o he_o go_v so_o far_o astray_o therefore_o do_v he_o fall_v into_o so_o great_a mischief_n as_o afterward_o be_v apparent_a if_o thou_o have_v go_v away_o from_o the_o lord_n endeavour_n all_o thou_o can_v to_o return_n unto_o he_o again_o which_o thou_o
