their_o light_n and_o splendour_n so_o man_n be_v say_v to_o lose_v their_o excellency_n when_o they_o give_v way_n unto_o their_o lust_n and_o the_o reason_n be_v first_o because_o when_o the_o

not_o able_a to_o take_v away_o his_o excellency_n as_o reproach_n and_o imprisonment_n in_o the_o world_n for_o a_o man_n may_v keep_v himself_o heavenly_a mind_v for_o all_o the_o reproach_n and_o

that_o the_o commandment_n of_o god_n become_v a_o burden_n unto_o he_o now_o there_o be_v nothing_o in_o the_o world_n more_o odious_a unto_o god_n than_o to_o be_v a_o idolater_n for_o he_o be_v a_o loathsome_a creature_n one_o who_o god_n have_v leave_v to_o himself_o now_o god_n never_o leave_v a_o man_n till_o he_o forsake_v he_o but_o when_o he_o do_v forsake_v god_n than_o he_o be_v leave_v to_o himself_o and_o this_o be_v proper_o call_v the_o hatred_n of_o god_n for_o then_o god_n withdraw_v from_o a_o man_n his_o spirit_n and_o special_a providence_n because_o he_o loathe_v he_o and_o

this_o case_n for_o i_o say_v the_o turn_n of_o a_o man_n heart_n from_o spiritual_a thing_n to_o earthly_a be_v the_o set_n up_o of_o idolatry_n in_o the_o heart_n and_o nature_n herself_o abhor_v

unto_o god_n because_o it_o draw_v away_o the_o heart_n from_o god_n and_o therefore_o the_o apostle_n say_v jam._n 4._o 4._o know_v you_o not_o that_o the_o 4._o love_n of_o the_o world_n be_v

that_o there_o be_v earthly-mindednesse_a nothing_o in_o the_o world_n that_o less_o beseem_v a_o christian_a man_n or_o woman_n especial_o one_o that_o profess_v religion_n than_o earthly_a

deadly_a hatred_n this_o be_v a_o despise_n of_o god_n and_o a_o trample_n under_o foot_n the_o blood_n of_o christ_n it_o be_v nothing_o for_o a_o profane_a man_n that_o have_v not_o give_v his_o name_n unto_o christ_n to_o lie_v wallow_v in_o the_o world_n and_o to_o go_v from_o one_o sin_n to_o another_o it_o be_v as_o it_o be_v but_o the_o put_n off_o one_o garment_n simile_n to_o put_v

thing_n be_v contrary_a unto_o grace_n but_o this_o forsake_v of_o the_o world_n be_v suitable_a unto_o grace_n for_o a_o covetous_a man_n that_o be_v profane_a there_o be_v no_o contrariety_n in_o that_o it_o be_v suitable_a unto_o his_o disposition_n but_o for_o any_o man_n that_o have_v taste_v of_o heavenly_a mystery_n as_o the_o apostle_n say_v heb._n 6._o 6._o to_o fall_v away_o into_o

nay_o many_o time_n the_o lord_n meet_v with_o such_o by_o great_a judgement_n as_o solomon_n in_o his_o youth_n how_o do_v he_o maintain_v religion_n yet_o in_o his_o age_n how_o fearful_o do_v he_o
