shall_v we_o say_v from_o the_o force_n of_o example_n but_o experience_n assure_v we_o of_o the_o contrary_a because_o visible_a in_o such_o child_n as_o have_v no_o such_o example_n before_o they_o and_o who_o moreover_o do_v not_o want_v a_o severe_a education_n to_o prevent_v or_o correct_v it_o shall_v we_o then_o say_v from_o some_o previous_a habit_n but_o the_o same_o experience_n assure_v we_o of_o the_o contrary_a because_o it_o be_v antecedent_n to_o any_o evil_a habit_n and_o therefore_o not_o imputable_a to_o they_o shall_v we_o say_v last_o and_o more_o than_o that_o we_o can_v say_v that_o it_o proceed_v from_o their_o natural_a temperament_n but_o as_o i_o no_o way_n doubt_v and_o shall_v not_o therefore_o stick_v to_o confess_v that_o the_o corruption_n of_o our_o nature_n run_v out_o that_o way_n which_o our_o natural_a temperament_n lead_v it_o so_o i_o see_v no_o necessity_n to_o grant_v that_o that_o natural_a temperament_n have_v any_o other_o interest_n in_o our_o untowardness_n than_o by_o incline_v our_o natural_a corruption_n to_o that_o particular_a evil_n to_o which_o we_o be_v carry_v for_o to_o make_v it_o any_o other_o way_n the_o cause_n of_o that_o untowardness_n be_v to_o charge_v it_o upon_o god_n because_o he_o must_v be_v confess_v to_o be_v the_o author_n of_o all_o that_o be_v pure_o natural_a in_o we_o only_o if_o it_o be_v say_v that_o that_o natural_a temperament_n may_v incline_v child_n before_o they_o have_v any_o free_a use_n of_o reason_n to_o those_o untowardness_n whereof_o we_o speak_v and_o so_o at_o length_n by_o the_o mean_n of_o those_o untowardness_n produce_v such_o a_o habitual_a inclination_n to_o they_o that_o their_o more_o free_a reason_n when_o they_o come_v to_o it_o shall_v not_o be_v able_a to_o surmount_v it_o i_o answer_v that_o that_o indeed_o may_v well_o enough_o be_v grant_v if_o we_o have_v no_o reason_n to_o believe_v that_o god_n will_v so_o watch_v over_o they_o by_o his_o providence_n as_o to_o hinder_v their_o natural_a temperament_n from_o have_v such_o a_o influence_n upon_o they_o but_o as_o we_o have_v reason_n enough_o to_o believe_v from_o the_o love_n god_n bear_v to_o his_o own_o workmanship_n as_o well_o as_o to_o piety_n and_o virtue_n that_o he_o will_v not_o be_v want_v in_o that_o particular_a to_o the_o estate_n of_o child_n if_o it_o be_v no_o other_o than_o such_o as_o he_o himself_o have_v place_v they_o in_o so_o we_o must_v therefore_o believe_v also_o that_o that_o temperament_n of_o they_o be_v not_o the_o cause_n of_o their_o miscarriage_n but_o somewhat_o else_o that_o be_v not_o from_o god_n and_o which_o because_o not_o from_o he_o he_o do_v not_o think_v himself_o under_o any_o necessity_n to_o provide_v against_o and_o indeed_o though_o some_o who_o call_v themselves_o christian_n have_v notwithstanding_o the_o former_a evidence_n oppose_v themselves_o against_o that_o which_o we_o have_v offer_v as_o the_o original_a cause_n thereof_o yet_o have_v the_o more_o sober_a heathen_a though_o ignorant_a of_o the_o occasion_n of_o it_o both_o acknowledge_v and_o lament_v it_o and_o so_o furnish_v we_o with_o
