word_n it_o be_v enough_o to_o cut_v one_o another_o throat_n so_o that_o they_o confess_v their_o life_n to_o be_v little_a worth_n see_v they_o will_v hazard_v they_o for_o so_o little_a make_v it_o a_o every_o day_n exercise_n but_o if_o god_n be_v blaspheme_v &_o his_o truth_n slander_v if_o his_o name_n be_v abuse_v before_o their_o eye_n they_o remain_v unmoveable_a and_o bear_v a_o part_n therein_o we_o be_v leper_n without_o feel_v in_o spiritual_a thing_n but_o very_o sensible_a in_o carnal_a we_o go_v for_o curiosity_n unto_o sermon_n where_o god_n truth_n be_v oppose_v against_o and_o our_o presence_n by_o the_o weak_a take_v for_o a_o approbation_n but_o we_o will_v be_v loath_a to_o be_v find_v i●_n a_o place_n or_o company_n where_o the_o honour_n of_o our_o house_n

very_o feeble_a in_o we_o to_o the_o end_n we_o may_v crave_v of_o god_n to_o awaken_v it_o by_o quicken_a we_o with_o his_o love_n from_o these_o five_o degree_n and_o five_o mark_n you_o may_v easy_o gather_v that_o the_o love_n of_o god_n consist_v not_o only_o in_o have_v a_o good_a opinion_n of_o he_o or_o to_o have_v a_o good_a feel_n or_o to_o speak_v well_o of_o he_o but_o that_o chief_o it_o consist_v in_o obey_v he_o and_o conform_v we_o to_o his_o wil._n so_o god_n in_o his_o law_n say_v that_o he_o show_v mercy_n unto_o they_o which_o love_v he_o but_o he_o add_v &_o which_o keep_v my_o commandment_n and_o jesus_n christ_n joh._n 14._o who_o so_o love_v i_o will_v keep_v my_o say_n and_o the_o same_o apostle_n in_o another_o place_n 3._o my_o little_a child_n

jesus_n christ_n say_v haile_o master_n or_o to_o rabshakeh_n who_o speak_v not_o the_o language_n of_o the_o people_n of_o god_n but_o for_o to_o dishonour_v he_o withal_o he_o know_v not_o god_n who_o love_v he_o not_o &_o he_o love_v he_o not_o who_o obei_v not_o his_o wil._n the_o child_n of_o eli_n be_v instruct_v in_o the_o will_n of_o god_n for_o be_v priest_n they_o teach_v it_o unto_o
