be_v full_a of_o holiness_n who_o eye_n can_v endure_v to_o behold_v iniquity_n yet_o when_o man_n be_v convert_v and_o draw_v to_o god_n they_o be_v bring_v near_o unto_o he_o they_o be_v the_o

the_o work_n of_o his_o hand_n have_v a_o eye_n to_o his_o child_n they_o be_v the_o friend_n of_o god_n and_o god_n be_v their_o friend_n when_o a_o man_n be_v my_o friend_n not_o only_o his_o

be_v a_o friend_n to_o any_o not_o only_o his_o mercy_n be_v his_o friend_n but_o the_o sword_n of_o god_n be_v his_o friend_n the_o very_a wrath_n of_o god_n be_v a_o friend_n to_o his_o child_n such_o a_o great_a friendship_n there_o be_v between_o god_n and_o his_o people_n so_o near_o they_o be_v bring_v to_o one_o another_o well_o but_o how_o be_v they_o bring_v thus_o near_o they_o be_v

of_o holiness_n in_o jesus_n christ_n again_o if_o there_o be_v not_o this_o fullness_n of_o holiness_n in_o christ_n how_o shall_v he_o be_v anoint_v with_o the_o oil_n of_o gladness_n above_o his_o

with_o a_o poor_a soul_n that_o have_v taste_v of_o the_o freegrace_n of_o god_n in_o christ_n the_o heart_n be_v more_o take_v herewithal_o than_o with_o the_o thought_n of_o heaven_n ah_o say_v a_o

that_o no_o flesh_n may_v rest_v in_o any_o duty_n in_o any_o service_n in_o any_o suffering_n but_o only_o upon_o grace_n upon_o christ_n alone_o belove_a we_o be_v very_o unwilling_a to_o come_v
