secret_a counsel_n to_o speak_v a_o little_a brief_o to_o this_o 5.23_o god_n appoint_v the_o time_n of_o man_n life_n dan._n 5.23_o first_o god_n have_v punctual_o and_o exact_o determine_v the_o time_n of_o our_o death_n to_o a_o very_a moment_n the_o great_a god_n in_o who_o hand_n our_o life_n our_o breath_n and_o all_o our_o way_n be_v he_o turn_v up_o our_o glass_n and_o put_v such_o a_o measure_n of_o sand_n into_o it_o and_o no_o more_o it_o be_v he_o that_o prefix_n it_o to_o run_v to_o such_o a_o length_n of_o time_n and_o then_o determine_v it_o shall_v run_v no_o long_o it_o be_v he_o who_o be_v lord_n of_o all_o time_n that_o write_v our_o name_n upon_o so_o many_o day_n and_o hour_n as_o we_o shall_v live_v as_o upon_o so_o many_o leave_n of_o his_o book_n and_o it_o be_v impossible_a for_o we_o to_o live_v one_o day_n or_o hour_n that_o have_v not_o our_o name_n write_v upon_o it_o by_o he_o from_o all_o eternity_n it_o be_v god_n that_o set_v every_o one_o the_o bound_n of_o their_o live_n as_o well_o as_o the_o bound_n of_o their_o habitation_n 17.26_o act_n 17.26_o beyond_o which_o they_o shall_v not_o be_v able_a to_o pass_v the_o embryo_n that_o die_v before_o ever_o it_o see_v the_o light_n fill_v up_o its_o appoint_a time_n by_o god_n as_o well_o as_o he_o that_o live_v to_o decrepit_a old_a age._n and_o therefore_o though_o the_o scripture_n and_o we_o use_v to_o say_v such_o or_o such_o a_o one_o be_v take_v away_o in_o the_o midst_n of_o his_o day_n yet_o simple_o in_o itself_o consider_v that_o be_v impossible_a the_o whole_a tale_n of_o day_n that_o god_n have_v appoint_v to_o every_o one_o must_v be_v fulfil_v and_o that_o to_o a_o very_a moment_n according_a as_o the_o number_n of_o they_o be_v set_v down_o by_o god_n from_o all_o eternity_n such_o expression_n as_o these_o denote_v no_o more_o than_o either_o that_o god_n cut_v they_o off_o in_o the_o full_a strength_n and_o vigour_n of_o their_o year_n when_o yet_o they_o may_v according_a to_o the_o course_n of_o nature_n and_o humane_a probability_n have_v live_v long_o or_o else_o compare_v the_o shortness_n of_o their_o life_n with_o the_o length_n of_o other_o god_n seem_v to_o break_v it_o off_o in_o the_o very_a midst_n before_o he_o have_v finish_v his_o work_n i_o shall_v not_o enter_v into_o a_o dispute_n whether_o the_o term_n of_o life_n be_v fix_v or_o movable_a methinks_v job_n have_v full_o state_v and_o determine_v the_o question_n 7.1_o job_n 7.1_o be_v there_o not_o say_v he_o a_o appoint_a time_n to_o man_n upon_o earth_n be_v not_o his_o day_n also_o like_o the_o day_n of_o a_o hireling_n now_o a_o hireling_n have_v a_o time_n of_o service_n prefix_v which_o when_o it_o be_v expire_v he_o be_v discharge_v from_o his_o labour_n god_n have_v send_v all_o man_n into_o the_o world_n as_o so_o many_o hireling_n and_o as_o soon_o as_o these_o day_n be_v expire_v he_o take_v they_o from_o their_o labour_n to_o their_o reward_n be_v not_o my_o day_n as_o the_o day_n of_o a_o hireling_n so_o job_n speak_v also_o in_o another_o chapter_n concern_v man_n his_o day_n be_v determine_v 14.5_o job_n 14.5_o the_o number_n of_o his_o month_n be_v with_o thou_o thou_o have_v appoint_v his_o bound_n that_o he_o can_v pass_v what_o can_v be_v more_o punctual_a and_o particular_a it_o be_v true_a however_o that_o though_o god_n have_v thus_o number_v out_o our_o day_n and_o set_v we_o our_o bound_n yet_o we_o may_v well_o say_v that_o whoever_o die_v may_v have_v live_v long_o have_v they_o make_v use_v of_o the_o right_a mean_n as_o martha_n say_v unto_o our_o saviour_n 11.21_o luke_n 11.21_o lord_n if_o thou_o have_v be_v here_o my_o brother_n have_v not_o die_v so_o may_v we_o say_v if_o such_o and_o such_o mean_n have_v be_v use_v and_o such_o remedy_n apply_v this_o or_o that_o person_n have_v not_o die_v but_o withal_o we_o must_v observe_v also_o that_o that_o god_n who_o have_v prefix_v to_o every_o one_o his_o term_n of_o life_n have_v also_o ordain_v in_o his_o own_o counsel_n and_o purpose_n that_o those_o mean_n that_o be_v proper_a to_o prolong_v life_n beyond_o that_o term_n shall_v through_o some_o unavoidable_a mistake_n or_o mishap_n either_o not_o be_v know_v or_o not_o use_v this_o therefore_o may_v be_v of_o great_a support_n unto_o we_o as_o against_o all_o inordinate_a fear_n of_o our_o own_o death_n so_o against_o all_o inordinate_a grief_n and_o sorrow_n for_o the_o death_n of_o other_o to_o consider_v that_o all_o our_o time_n be_v in_o god_n hand_n he_o measure_v out_o every_o day_n to_o we_o and_o as_o he_o have_v appoint_v bound_n to_o we_o beyond_o which_o we_o shall_v not_o pass_v so_o also_o have_v he_o appoint_v that_o we_o shall_v certain_o reach_v unto_o those_o bound_n his_o all_o wise_a providence_n dispose_v of_o the_o mean_a and_o small_a concernment_n of_o our_o life_n and_o therefore_o much_o more_o of_o our_o life_n themselves_o and_o if_o a_o hair_n of_o our_o head_n can_v much_o less_o shall_v not_o we_o ourselves_o fall_v to_o the_o ground_n without_o our_o heavenly_a father_n second_o as_o god_n have_v appoint_v the_o exact_a critical_a hour_n so_o also_o the_o particular_a manner_n of_o our_o death_n it_o be_v he_o that_o appoint_v whether_o it_o shall_v be_v sudden_a or_o foresee_v by_o disease_n or_o by_o casualty_n whether_o the_o

by_o some_o fiery_a fever_n in_o whatever_o manner_n or_o shape_n death_n may_v appear_v to_o we_o be_v a_o secret_a know_v only_o unto_o god_n but_o this_o we_o know_v that_o it_o be_v always_o his_o

shall_v appear_v to_o we_o if_o we_o diligent_o endeavour_v by_o a_o holy_a life_n to_o prepare_v ourselves_o for_o it_o it_o shall_v not_o be_v frightful_a or_o terrible_a to_o we_o now_o to_o make_v some_o practical_a improvement_n of_o this_o and_o use_v 1_o first_o if_o god_n thus_o unalterable_o appoint_v to_o we_o our_o last_o period_n if_o he_o have_v thus_o appoint_v we_o to_o die_v if_o all_o man_n be_v conclude_v under_o that_o irrevocable_a law_n let_v this_o then_o serve_v to_o convince_v we_o of_o the_o gross_a and_o notorious_a folly_n of_o set_v our_o affection_n eager_o upon_o this_o present_a world_n a_o world_n that_o we_o must_v short_o leave_v behind_o we_o death_n within_o a_o very_a little_a while_n will_v most_o certain_o pluck_v we_o from_o it_o and_o it_o will_v prove_v a_o violent_a rend_n to_o we_o if_o our_o affection_n be_v inordinate_o set_v upon_o any_o thing_n here_o below_o it_o be_v a_o strange_a and_o perverse_a use_n also_o that_o the_o ancient_a
