incur_v fear_n to_o endure_v the_o discommodity_n &_o disturbance_n of_o banishment_n &_o such_o like_a thing_n they_o can_v well_o find_v in_o their_o heart_n to_o go_v into_o paradise_n by_o that_o large_a &_o wide_a way_n &_o gate_n but_o jesus_n christ_n say_v that_o this_o be_v the_o way_n that_o lead_v to_o destruction_n &_o that_o the_o narrow_a way_n &_o strait_a gate_n lead_v to_o

sufficient_o exaggerate_v it_o be_v so_o monstrous_a and_o scandalous_a and_o it_o be_v most_o necessary_a that_o you_o be_v bring_v to_o the_o sight_n of_o your_o malady_n and_o misery_n that_o you_o

when_o we_o procee_v against_o ourselves_o to_o begin_v here_o that_o be_v first_o of_o all_o to_o condemn_v our_o infirmity_n as_o be_v a_o fruit_n of_o our_o corruption_n and_o afterward_o our_o

of_o his_o spirit_n you_o shall_v not_o have_v fall_v into_o this_o inconvenience_n if_o you_o say_v that_o the_o love_n of_o your_o father_n mother_n wife_n and_o child_n their_o provocation_n their_o cry_n &_o their_o tear_n the_o desire_n of_o their_o good_a and_o commodity_n and_o the_o fear_v you_o have_v to_o leave_v they_o open_v to_o all_o manner_n peril_n and_o danger_n or_o to_o

that_o these_o be_v great_a trial_n namely_o to_o those_o that_o have_v a_o tender_a heart_n and_o that_o a_o man_n must_v be_v furnish_v with_o singular_a strength_n from_o above_o that_o he_o may_v
