when_o your_o heart_n be_v hanker_a after_o these_o crazy_a hold_n stay_v they_o and_o deal_v by_o your_o heart_n as_o the_o lord_n sometime_o do_v with_o the_o people_n of_o juda_n in_o their_o

and_o perform_v duty_n and_o thus_o thou_o think_v to_o forge_v comfort_n out_o of_o thy_o own_o shop_n therefore_o call_v upon_o thy_o own_o heart_n and_o say_v what_o have_v thou_o to_o do_v to_o rest_v upon_o these_o break_a staff_n upon_o thy_o pray_n and_o hear_v and_o profess_v these_o if_o not_o accompany_v with_o faith_n in_o christ_n merit_n will_v lay_v thou_o in_o the_o dust_n and_o if_o thou_o make_v god_n of_o they_o the_o lord_n will_v pluck_v they_o away_o judas_n pray_v and_o preach_v and_o hear_v and_o receive_v the_o sacrament_n too_o and_o yet_o he_o be_v a_o devil_n in_o

it_o be_v good_a that_o thou_o do_v repent_v and_o amend_v
that_o you_o may_v chat_v and_o parley_v a_o little_a with_o christ_n our_o saviour_n say_v 24.28_o matth._n 24.28_o where_o the_o carcase_n or_o the_o dead_a body_n be_v there_o will_v the_o eagle_n be_v this_o be_v the_o nature_n of_o a_o eagle_n she_o will_v not_o go_v to_o catch_v fly_n that_o be_v the_o nature_n of_o the_o hedge_n sparrow_n but_o she_o will_v prey_v upon_o the_o carcase_n so_o this_o be_v a_o good_a heart_n that_o will_v not_o prey_v upon_o dead_a duty_n but_o upon_o the_o lord_n christ_n who_o be_v the_o life_n of_o the_o soul_n if_o thou_o be_v of_o a_o right_a brood_n thou_o will_v not_o fill_v and_o glut_v thy_o soul_n with_o a_o few_o duty_n like_o a_o hedge_n sparrow_n still_o mistake_v i_o not_o i_o do_v not_o dispraise_v these_o duty_n but_o i_o say_v they_o be_v nothing_o in_o the_o way_n of_o justification_n if_o faith_n in_o christ_n merit_n be_v not_o join_v with_o they_o therefore_o if_o thou_o have_v a_o dunghill_n heart_n of_o thy_o own_o thou_o may_v go_v and_o content_v thyself_o with_o profession_n and_o with_o a_o few_o cold_a dead_a duty_n but_o if_o thou_o be_v a_o eagle_n and_o a_o sound_a heart_a christian_a and_o one_o that_o god_n have_v be_v please_v to_o do_v good_a unto_o thou_o will_v never_o be_v but_o where_o the_o lord_n jesus_n be_v and_o where_o his_o grace_n and_o mercy_n be_v as_o we_o do_v at_o a_o feast_n the_o dish_n be_v great_a than_o the_o meat_n yet_o we_o reach_v the_o dish_n not_o for_o the_o dish_n sake_n but_o that_o we_o may_v cut_v some_o meat_n so_o the_o ordinance_n of_o god_n be_v as_o so_o many_o dish_n wherein_o the_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n be_v dish_v out_o to_o we_o sometime_o christ_n in_o his_o merit_n be_v dish_v out_o in_o the_o sacrament_n to_o all_o the_o sense_n and_o sometime_o he_o be_v dish_v out_o in_o the_o word_n therefore_o as_o you_o take_v the_o dish_n to_o cut_v some_o meat_n so_o take_v the_o word_n that_o communicate_v christ_n to_o the_o ear_n and_o prayer_n communicate_v with_o christ_n and_o the_o sacrament_n communicate_v christ_n to_o all_o the_o sense_n cut_v the_o meat_n and_o let_v not_o the_o lord_n christ_n go_v whole_a from_o the_o table_n and_o no_o man_n look_v after_o he_o fill_v your_o hungry_a soul_n with_o christ_n when_o a_o poor_a travel_a man_n come_v to_o the_o ferry_n he_o cry_v to_o the_o other_o side_n have_v over_o have_v over_o his_o meaning_n be_v he_o will_v go_v to_o the_o other_o side_n by_o a_o boat_n he_o only_o desire_v the_o use_n of_o the_o ferryman_n to_o convey_v he_o over_o so_o christ_n be_v in_o heaven_n but_o we_o be_v here_o on_o earth_n as_o it_o be_v on_o the_o other_o side_n of_o the_o river_n the_o ordinance_n of_o god_n be_v but_o as_o so_o many_o boat_n to_o carry_v we_o and_o to_o land_n we_o at_o heaven_n where_o our_o hope_n be_v and_o our_o heart_n shall_v be_v therefore_o you_o will_v be_v land_v have_v over_o have_v over_o say_v the_o soul_n the_o soul_n desire_v to_o be_v land_v at_o the_o stair_n of_o mercy_n and_o say_v oh_o bring_v i_o to_o speak_v with_o my_o saviour_n marry_o come_v to_o the_o sepulchre_n to_o seek_v for_o christ_n and_o therefore_o when_o the_o

to_o the_o holy_a ordinance_n of_o god_n who_o seek_v thou_o say_v the_o word_n and_o prayer_n and_o the_o sacrament_n oh_o say_v the_o break_a heart_a sinner_n they_o have_v take_v away_o my_o lord_n

a_o saviour_n see_v a_o need_n of_o christ_n in_o all_o and_o see_v great_a beauty_n in_o christ_n then_o in_o all_o and_o be_v lead_v near_o to_o christ_n by_o all_o or_o else_o you_o get_v nothing_o by_o all_o that_o you_o do_v if_o there_o be_v no_o gold_n in_o the_o west-indies_n the_o king_n of_o spain_n will_v not_o care_v for_o his_o ship_n nor_o for_o that_o place_n schoolboy_n care_v not_o

loose_v the_o creature_n in_o god_n so_o i_o will_v have_v you_o do_v lose_v yourselves_o and_o all_o ordinance_n and_o creature_n and_o all_o that_o you_o have_v and_o do_v in_o the_o lord_n christ_n how_o be_v that_o let_v all_o be_v swallow_v up_o and_o let_v nothing_o be_v see_v but_o a_o christ_n and_o let_v thy_o heart_n be_v set_v upon_o nothing_o but_o a_o christ_n as_o it_o be_v with_o the_o moon_n and_o star_n when_o the_o sun_n come_v they_o lose_v all_o their_o light_n though_o they_o be_v there_o in_o the_o heaven_n still_o and_o as_o it_o be_v with_o river_n they_o all_o go_v into_o the_o sea_n and_o be_v all_o swallow_v up_o of_o the_o sea_n and_o yet_o there_o be_v nothing_o see_v but_o the_o sea_n so_o all_o the_o ordinance_n and_o creature_n be_v as_o so_o many_o

in_o christ_n when_o a_o man_n be_v upon_o the_o sea_n he_o can_v see_v no_o fresh_a water_n it_o be_v all_o swallow_v up_o so_o let_v it_o be_v with_o thy_o soul_n when_o thou_o will_v find_v mercy_n
