there_o be_v though_o true_o godly_a yet_o they_o have_v so_o much_o corruption_n in_o they_o that_o they_o be_v burdensome_a to_o all_o that_o they_o converse_v withal_o as_o in_o a_o family_n take_v

much_o more_o aggravate_v their_o burden_n those_o that_o be_v true_o godly_a that_o be_v overcome_v with_o passion_n when_o they_o think_v thus_o oh_o what_o a_o wretched_a heart_n have_v i_o that_o

that_o i_o converse_v withal_o i_o make_v no_o question_n but_o i_o speak_v to_o many_o that_o have_v lament_v their_o condition_n in_o this_o kind_n alone_o in_o that_o they_o have_v be_v so_o burdensome_a to_o other_o it_o be_v true_a i_o have_v be_v a_o burden_n to_o such_o and_o such_o but_o the_o lord_n know_v it_o be_v much_o more_o a_o burden_n to_o my_o own_o heart_n and_o to_o myself_o therefore_o the_o remain_a part_n of_o corruption_n be_v such_o a_o burden_n to_o the_o godly_a because_o it_o be_v a_o burden_n to_o other_o whenas_o all_o the_o people_n of_o god_n shall_v be_v useful_a in_o the_o place_n where_o they_o live_v they_o shall_v live_v so_o as_o that_o all_o that_o live_v by_o they_o and_o with_o they_o shall_v bless_v god_n for_o they_o this_o they_o shall_v endeavour_v to_o do_v to_o live_v in_o such_o a_o manner_n as_o all_o that_o come_v near_o they_o shall_v bless_v god_n that_o ever_o they_o come_v near_o or_o have_v converse_v with_o they_o the_o seven_o property_n of_o the_o burden_n of_o corruption_n seven_o this_o burden_n be_v such_o a_o burden_n as_o make_v those_o that_o be_v godly_a to_o be_v burdensome_a to_o themselves_o yea_o even_o to_o be_v weary_a of_o their_o life_n many_o time_n why_o for_o their_o corruption_n in_o they_o be_v a_o great_a deal_n more_o grievous_a than_o death_n will_v be_v to_o they_o we_o use_v to_o express_v a_o thing_n that_o be_v very_o grievous_a to_o we_o and_o say_v it_o be_v death_n to_o we_o those_o that_o be_v godly_a can_v say_v so_o of_o their_o sin_n and_o that_o be_v one_o reason_n that_o paul_n give_v that_o name_n to_o his_o sin_n a_o body_n of_o death_n oh_o wretched_a man_n that_o i_o be_o who_o shall_v deliver_v i_o from_o this_o body_n of_o death_n why_o because_o the_o remain_a corruption_n that_o then_o be_v in_o his_o heart_n be_v as_o death_n to_o he_o so_o it_o be_v with_o the_o saint_n the_o corruption_n that_o remain_v in_o their_o heart_n it_o be_v death_n to_o they_o and_o they_o can_v appeal_v unto_o god_n and_o speak_v thus_o in_o his_o presence_n the_o bitterness_n of_o death_n will_v not_o be_v so_o much_o to_o i_o a_o thousand_o part_n as_o this_o corruption_n that_o be_v in_o my_o heart_n oh_o this_o corruption_n that_o be_v in_o my_o heart_n that_o overcome_v i_o after_o so_o many_o resolution_n so_o many_o prayer_n so_o many_o sacrament_n so_o many_o engagement_n it_o be_v that_o which_o make_v i_o weary_a of_o my_o life_n as_o rebeccah_n say_v if_o jacob_n shall_v marry_v a_o wife_n of_o the_o daughter_n of_o heth_n it_o will_v make_v her_o weary_a of_o her_o life_n so_o say_v the_o godly_a this_o remain_a corruption_n in_o my_o heart_n make_v i_o weary_a of_o my_o life_n what_o shall_v i_o do_v that_o carry_v such_o a_o body_n of_o death_n about_o i_o so_o as_o i_o do_v there_o be_v many_o man_n and_o woman_n that_o in_o a_o discontent_a mood_n say_v they_o be_v weary_a of_o their_o life_n but_o this_o be_v in_o a_o discontent_a mood_n but_o when_o can_v you_o say_v so_o in_o respect_n of_o your_o heart_n when_o do_v you_o say_v i_o look_v into_o my_o heart_n and_o i_o see_v a_o great_a deal_n of_o sin_n corruption_n worldliness_n pride_n passion_n and_o the_o like_a and_o this_o be_v that_o which_o make_v i_o weary_a of_o my_o life_n the_o truth_n be_v the_o great_a thing_n that_o make_v the_o people_n of_o god_n to_o be_v willing_a to_o die_v be_v this_o because_o they_o know_v when_o they_o die_v they_o shall_v be_v deliver_v from_o this_o burden_n and_o therefore_o when_o death_n come_v they_o entertain_v it_o willing_o because_o they_o know_v they_o shall_v sin_v against_o god_n no_o more_o there_o be_v many_o of_o you_o when_o you_o have_v live_v a_o long_a time_n in_o sickness_n and_o poverty_n and_o be_v in_o great_a strait_n many_o way_n you_o think_v if_o death_n shall_v come_v to_o i_o i_o can_v be_v willing_a to_o die_v because_o than_o i_o shall_v suffer_v no_o such_o thing_n as_o now_o i_o do_v i_o but_o that_o be_v no_o argument_n of_o grace_n but_o this_o be_v a_o argument_n of_o grace_n that_o because_o of_o the_o great_a burden_n of_o corruption_n that_o thou_o carry_v about_o in_o thy_o soul_n therefore_o thou_o will_v be_v willing_a to_o die_v the_o eight_o property_n of_o the_o burden_n of_o corruption_n eight_o sin_n be_v a_o grievous_a burden_n while_o we_o have_v it_o and_o make_v we_o weary_a of_o our_o life_n and_o yet_o it_o be_v such_o a_o burden_n as_o we_o must_v certain_o carry_v about_o with_o we_o such_o a_o body_n as_o we_o know_v we_o shall_v never_o be_v free_v from_o whole_o while_o we_o live_v in_o this_o world_n it_o be_v true_a we_o may_v be_v free_v from_o it_o in_o a_o great_a measure_n christ_n say_v come_v to_o i_o and_o you_o shall_v have_v rest_n that_o be_v some_o rest_n for_o the_o present_a and_o whole_a rest_n in_o the_o life_n to_o come_v but_o we_o can_v be_v whole_o free_v from_o this_o burden_n whilst_o we_o be_v in_o this_o world_n and_o thus_o much_o for_o the_o property_n of_o this_o burden_n what_o
christ_n for_o ease_n and_o rest_n four_o the_o burden_n of_o the_o law_n be_v exceed_o great_a in_o this_o respect_n that_o upon_o any_o one_o breach_n of_o the_o law_n the_o soul_n come_v to_o be_v break_v so_o as_o to_o lose_v ability_n to_o be_v able_a to_o keep_v any_o part_n of_o the_o law_n for_o ever_o i_o say_v there_o be_v this_o in_o the_o law_n more_o than_o in_o the_o gospel_n that_o upon_o any_o one_o breach_n of_o the_o law_n in_o the_o covenant_n of_o work_n the_o soul_n come_v to_o be_v so_o break_v as_o to_o loose_v all_o the_o ability_n of_o ever_o keep_v any_o part_n of_o the_o law_n again_o as_o thus_o i_o show_v you_o in_o adam_n adam_n be_v the_o head_n of_o the_o first_o covenant_n of_o work_n of_o the_o law_n now_o adam_n he_o break_v it_o in_o one_o particular_a fail_v in_o one_o particular_a of_o what_o god_n require_v of_o he_o and_o in_o break_v of_o it_o in_o that_o one_o thing_n he_o and_o all_o his_o posterity_n be_v so_o break_v that_o they_o lose_v all_o their_o ability_n of_o keep_v of_o the_o law_n for_o ever_o except_o god_n come_v and_o create_v any_o ability_n they_o have_v lose_v what_o ability_n be_v give_v at_o first_o in_o their_o creation_n so_o than_o this_o be_v a_o very_a great_a mystery_n that_o one_o by_o do_v a_o thing_n that_o be_v evil_n shall_v weaken_v the_o contrary_a habit_n that_o by_o do_v a_o thing_n that_o be_v evil_a we_o shall_v quite_o loose_v the_o habit_n that_o be_v quite_o loose_a the_o habit_n by_o one_o act_n and_o not_o only_o loose_v the_o habit_n that_o be_v contrary_a to_o the_o particular_a evil_n that_o we_o do_v but_o lose_v all_o habit_n of_o all_o good_a whatsoever_o and_o that_o by_o one_o act_n now_o this_o be_v a_o thing_n above_o nature_n this_o be_v only_o by_o virtue_n of_o the_o covenant_n of_o work_n god_n make_v such_o a_o covenant_n it_o run_v upon_o such_o term_n as_o if_o adam_n do_v but_o sin_n in_o one_o thing_n he_o must_v die_v that_o be_v his_o soul_n as_o well_o as_o his_o body_n must_v die_v a_o spiritual_a death_n and_o so_o loose_a all_o habit_n of_o all_o grace_n and_o this_o be_v the_o reason_n why_o we_o be_v by_o nature_n dead_a in_o sin_n further_o such_o be_v the_o condition_n of_o the_o law_n that_o suppose_v god_n shall_v restore_v we_o all_o to_o be_v as_o perfect_a as_o ever_o adam_n be_v in_o the_o state_n of_o innocency_n void_a of_o all_o sin_n and_o have_v the_o image_n of_o god_n perfect_a and_o then_o god_n shall_v come_v and_o put_v we_o upon_o the_o covenant_n of_o work_n again_o i_o say_v if_o we_o than_o shall_v but_o fail_v in_o any_o one_o thing_n it_o will_v break_v we_o so_o as_o we_o shall_v loose_v all_o our_o ability_n to_o perform_v any_o duty_n ever_o after_o this_o be_v the_o condition_n of_o the_o law_n but_o it_o be_v not_o so_o with_o the_o gospel_n though_o we_o sin_n against_o the_o gospel_n we_o do_v not_o present_o loose_v all_o our_o habit_n of_o grace_n but_o the_o reason_n of_o the_o difference_n that_o though_o adam_n when_o he_o sin_v against_o the_o law_n he_o lose_v all_o his_o habit_n to_o do_v any_o good_a after_o and_o that_o though_o we_o sin_n against_o the_o gospel_n yet_o we_o do_v not_o loose_v those_o habit_n that_o i_o shall_v show_v afterward_o when_o i_o shall_v come_v to_o show_v that_o the_o yoke_n of_o the_o gospel_n be_v easy_a than_o that_o of_o the_o
