thy_o many_o distemper_n the_o long_a seed_n time_n the_o great_a harvest_n and_o so_o howsoever_o this_o sorrow_n be_v troublesome_a now_o it_o will_v be_v very_o comfortable_a in_o the_o end_n and_o though_o it_o be_v tedious_a to_o lay_v all_o these_o curse_a abomination_n upon_o thy_o heart_n yet_o it_o will_v not_o be_v harsh_a when_o the_o lord_n remember_v you_o in_o his_o kingdom_n it_o will_v never_o repent_v you_o that_o you_o have_v have_v your_o heart_n humble_v and_o break_v when_o the_o lord_n come_v to_o heal_v you_o and_o it_o will_v never_o repent_v you_o that_o you_o have_v weep_v when_o the_o lord_n come_v to_o wipe_v away_o all_o tear_n from_o your_o eye_n bless_a be_v they_o that_o mourn_v for_o they_o shall_v be_v comfort_v 5._o say_v our_o saviour_n but_o woe_n to_o you_o that_o be_v at_o ease_n in_o zion_n 6.1_o there_o be_v a_o time_n of_o mourning_n for_o sin_n you_o can_v have_v ease_n and_o quietness_n always_o you_o have_v better_a now_o be_v wound_v then_o everlasting_o torment_v and_o therefore_o if_o you_o desire_v to_o see_v the_o face_n of_o god_n with_o comfort_n and_o to_o have_v christ_n speak_v for_o you_o and_o say_v come_v you_o poor_a heavy_a heart_a sinner_n i_o will_v ease_v you_o if_o ever_o you_o desire_v this_o labour_v to_o lay_v load_n on_o your_o heart_n with_o sorrow_n for_o your_o sin_n oh_o what_o comfort_n shall_v ●_o poor_a break_a heart_n find_v in_o that_o day_n david_n say_v ●●_o a_o break_a and_o contrite_a heart_n o_o lord_n thou_o will_v not_o despise_v when_o man_n go_v into_o a_o far_a country_n for_o merchandise_n they_o will_v not_o take_v rattle_v and_o such_o toy_n for_o their_o money_n but_o such_o commodity_n as_o they_o may_v get_v something_o by_o so_o when_o the_o lord_n come_v for_o break_a heart_n you_o must_v not_o think_v to_o put_v the_o lord_n off_o with_o a_o little_a paint_a sorrow_n no_o no_o it_o be_v a_o break_a heart_n that_o the_o lord_n will_v not_o despise_v will_v you_o know_v what_o kind_n of_o heart_n the_o lord_n will_v accept_v and_o never_o cast_v off_o it_o be_v a_o break_a heart_n tell_v your_o friend_n and_o neighbour_n of_o it_o i_o think_v you_o look_v as_o if_o you_o will_v find_v acceptance_n with_o god_n and_o go_v to_o heaven_n oh_o than_o get_v a_o humble_a lowly_a break_a heart_n the_o lord_n regard_v not_o all_o the_o river_n of_o oil_n in_o the_o world_n not_o a_o hundred_o thousand_o fast_n but_o it_o be_v a_o break_a heart_n that_o god_n will_v bless_v and_o glorify_v look_v as_o it_o be_v with_o a_o woman_n conception_n those_o birth_n that_o be_v hasty_a the_o child_n be_v either_o still_o bear_v or_o the_o woman_n most_o common_o die_v so_o do_v not_o thou_o think_v to_o fall_v upon_o the_o promise_n present_o indeed_o you_o can_v fall_v upon_o it_o too_o soon_o upon_o good_a ground_n but_o it_o be_v impossible_a that_o ever_o a_o full_a soul_n or_o a_o haughty_a heart_n shall_v believe_v thou_o may_v be_v deceive_v but_o thou_o can_v not_o be_v ingraft_v into_o christ_n therefore_o when_o god_n begin_v to_o work_v never_o rest_v till_o you_o come_v to_o a_o full_a measure_n of_o this_o brokennesse_n of_o heart_n oh_o follow_v the_o blow_n and_o labour_n to_o make_v this_o work_n sound_n and_o good_a unto_o the_o bottom_n and_o then_o you_o shall_v be_v sure_a to_o receive_v comfort_n as_o the_o prophet_n david_n say_v 123.2_o our_o eye_n be_v up_o unto_o thou_o till_o thou_o have_v mercy_n on_o we_o let_v your_o conscience_n be_v wound_v thorough_o and_o kind_o &_o resolve_v not_o to_o hear_v the_o curse_a counsel_n of_o carnal_a friend_n that_o say_v what_o need_v you_o mourn_v o_o poor_a fool_n there_o be_v not_o any_o even_o the_o civil_a professor_n in_o the_o kingdom_n but_o if_o god_n do_v discharge_v his_o sin_n to_o his_o heart_n as_o he_o can_v do_v it_o be_v enough_o to_o make_v he_o go_v howl_v with_o sorrow_n to_o his_o grave_n therefore_o humble_a yourselves_o before_o god_n and_o never_o be_v at_o rest_n till_o the_o lord_n show_v mercy_n to_o your_o soul_n never_o unburthen_v your_o soul_n before_o god_n ease_v you_o and_o do_v not_o break_v prison_n for_o if_o you_o do_v god_n will_v send_v after_o you_o with_o a_o witness_n no_o no_o when_o god_n have_v put_v thou_o into_o prison_n break_v not_o out_o till_o god_n send_v to_o deliver_v you_o and_o then_o your_o heart_n will_v be_v fill_v with_o comfort_n sound_o humble_v sound_o comfort_v if_o a_o man_n be_v lose_v christ_n will_v seek_v he_o up_o and_o save_v he_o quest._n now_o it_o may_v be_v some_o poor_a soul_n will_v say_v how_o shall_v i_o bring_v my_o heart_n to_o this_o sound_a work_n indeed_o answ._n for_o answer_v to_o this_o i_o will_v show_v three_o mean_n whereby_o the_o lord_n work_v this_o sound_a conviction_n first_o when_o the_o lord_n begin_v first_o to_o work_v upon_o you_o and_o you_o begin_v to_o see_v your_o corruption_n then_o possess_v your_o soul_n with_o the_o apprehension_n of_o the_o ticklishnesse_n of_o your_o condition_n wherein_o you_o be_v this_o work_n be_v great_a and_o marvellous_a inward_a and_o you_o may_v be_v easy_o deceive_v and_o the_o danger_n be_v great_a if_o you_o be_v deceive_v it_o be_v in_o this_o case_n with_o the_o soul_n as_o it_o be_v with_o a_o ship_n on_o the_o sea_n when_o the_o mariner_n pass_v by_o and_o see_v the_o rock_n where_o such_o and_o such_o ship_n have_v be_v split_v and_o the_o man_n and_o all_o lose_v they_o be_v very_o wary_a to_o steer_v aright_o and_o to_o direct_v their_o compass_n aright_o but_o near_o sand_n and_o rock_n they_o will_v not_o come_v so_o it_o be_v with_o this_o humble_v of_o the_o heart_n many_o have_v be_v cozen_v and_o deceive_v therein_o therefore_o now_o hold_v this_o rule_n let_v that_o soul_n who_o eye_n god_n have_v open_v and_o bring_v under_o his_o blow_n let_v such_o i_o say_v rather_o fear_v he_o be_v not_o sound_v in_o the_o work_n then_o fear_v that_o he_o shall_v not_o have_v ease_n for_o every_o man_n say_v i_o pray_v you_o sir_n comfort_n and_o refresh_v i_o and_o will_v god_n never_o give_v i_o comfort_v oh_o now_o you_o go_v wrong_a many_o perish_v because_o they_o go_v off_o from_o this_o work_n so_o soon_o but_o never_o do_v any_o perish_v because_o he_o receive_v the_o work_n sound_o therefore_o reason_n thus_o with_o thy_o own_o heart_n and_o say_v good_a lord_n be_v merciful_a to_o i_o my_o condition_n be_v very_o tickle_a if_o now_o i_o be_v deceive_v they_o farewell_o comfort_n be_v not_o cain_n and_o judas_n vex_v and_o disquiet_v and_o yet_o damn_v this_o be_v a_o great_a point_n of_o wisdom_n and_o sink_v many_o a_o christian_n i_o know_v what_o i_o say_v as_o it_o be_v with_o child_n bear_v a_o woman_n when_o her_o throw_n come_v often_o and_o strong_a there_o be_v some_o hope_n of_o deliverance_n but_o when_o her_o throw_n go_v away_o common_o the_o child_n die_v and_o her_o life_n too_o so_o it_o be_v in_o this_o great_a work_n of_o contrition_n which_o be_v nothing_o else_o but_o the_o childbirth_n of_o the_o soul_n when_o your_o throw_n go_v away_o take_v heed_n that_o your_o salvation_n go_v not_o too_o once_o you_o can_v say_v the_o minister_n speak_v home_o to_o my_o heart_n i_o remember_v the_o time_n full_a well_o why_o then_o what_o become_v of_o all_o your_o sorrow_n you_o can_v be_v as_o carnal_a &_o as_o secure_a as_o ever_o it_o be_v certain_a you_o be_v in_o childbearing_n but_o your_o throw_n have_v leave_v you_o and_o your_o brokennesse_n of_o heart_n be_v go_v and_o therefore_o you_o be_v in_o a_o ill_a case_n sure_o at_o some_o low_a ebb_n of_o grace_n again_o if_o a_o man_n heart_n be_v sound_o break_v though_o he_o fall_v into_o some_o sin_n he_o may_v be_v recall_v but_o if_o he_o have_v not_o his_o heart_n sound_o break_v he_o be_v undo_v if_o the_o foundation_n be_v naught_o the_o building_n must_v needs_o fall_v so_o it_o be_v in_o this_o preparation_n of_o the_o soul_n for_o christ_n if_o this_o be_v naught_o all_o come_v to_o naught_o therefore_o be_v so_o much_o the_o more_o fearful_a of_o your_o soul_n because_o your_o condition_n be_v so_o much_o the_o more_o tickle_a in_o this_o then_o in_o any_o thing_n else_o and_o rather_o desire_v soundness_n than_o quietness_n second_o when_o god_n stir_v do_v you_o stir_v your_o heart_n too_o be_v you_o stab_v further_o &_o make_v the_o blow_n go_v deep_o therefore_o wheresoever_o any_o truth_n go_v near_o thy_o heart_n and_o awaken_v thou_o look_v up_o to_o heaven_n and_o bless_v god_n for_o it_o and_o labour_n to_o drive_v the_o nail_n home_o to_o the_o head_n and_o make_v the_o salve_n sink_v into_o

the_o strength_n of_o the_o word_n come_v full_a upon_o the_o heart_n and_o this_o will_v make_v we_o feel_o to_o understand_v our_o condition_n as_o in_o job_n when_o god_n have_v take_v down_o his_o
