mixture_n among_o they_o thus_o we_o shall_v sanctify_v the_o name_n of_o god_n in_o receive_v this_o holy_a sacrament_n you_o have_v have_v divers_a thing_n propound_v to_o you_o whereby_o you_o may_v come_v to_o know_v and_o easy_o to_o see_v that_o there_o have_v be_v a_o great_a deal_n of_o dishonour_n do_v to_o this_o sacrament_n and_o the_o beauty_n and_o glory_n of_o it_o have_v be_v darken_v and_o the_o sweet_a that_o the_o saint_n may_v otherwise_o have_v receive_v in_o pluck_v have_v be_v exceed_o hinder_v there_o be_v but_o one_o thing_n more_o that_o i_o shall_v propound_v to_o you_o and_o that_o be_v the_o several_a meditation_n that_o we_o shall_v meditate_v on_o in_o receive_v of_o the_o sacrament_n the_o most_o concern_v meditation_n be_v suggest_v in_o the_o holy_a communion_n that_o be_v in_o any_o thing_n whatsoever_o more_o concern_v more_o efficacious_a more_o various_a meditation_n we_o have_v suggest_v here_o then_o in_o any_o thing_n and_o it_o be_v a_o great_a figne_n that_o man_n and_o woman_n do_v not_o discern_v the_o lord_n body_n if_o so_o be_v their_o meditation_n be_v barren_a at_o that_o time_n i_o will_v therefore_o suggest_v some_o nine_o or_o ten_o meditation_n that_o that_o ordinance_n of_o god_n may_v hold_v out_o very_o plain_o and_o familiar_o to_o every_o communicant_a for_o the_o busy_a of_o their_o thought_n all_o the_o time_n that_o action_n be_v a_o do_v meditation_n 1._o as_o first_o that_o the_o way_n of_o man_n salvation_n it_o be_v by_o a_o mediator_n it_o be_v not_o only_o by_o god_n mercy_n god_n say_v that_o he_o be_v offend_v by_o sin_n but_o he_o will_v be_v content_a to_o pass_v it_o by_o no_o but_o it_o be_v through_o a_o mediator_n now_o this_o meditation_n be_v suggest_v thus_o when_o i_o see_v the_o bread_n and_o wine_n if_o i_o disceren_fw-mi what_o that_o signifyes_n it_o will_v hold_v forth_o this_o to_o i_o that_o the_o way_n of_o man_n salvation_n it_o be_v not_o mere_o from_o hence_o that_o god_n say_v well_o i_o will_v pardon_v they_o and_o no_o more_o but_o there_o be_v require_v a_o great_a work_n of_o god_n to_o make_v a_o aronement_n between_o sinner_n and_o himself_o this_o sacrament_n do_v hold_v forth_o thus_o much_o unto_o we_o wherefore_o else_o have_v we_o bread_n and_o wine_n but_o to_o signify_v that_o the_o way_n of_o our_o rconciliation_n it_o must_v be_v through_o a_o mediator_n med._n 2._o the_o second_o meditation_n be_v this_o that_o this_o mediator_n that_o stand_v between_o god_n and_o we_o be_v very_o and_o true_o man_n he_o have_v take_v our_o nature_n upon_o he_o the_o bread_n that_o put_v we_o in_o mind_n of_o the_o body_n of_o christ_n and_o the_o wine_n of_o his_o blood_n and_o therefore_o we_o be_v to_o meditate_v of_o the_o humane_a nature_n of_o jesus_n christ_n and_o this_o be_v a_o meditation_n that_o have_v abundance_n that_o may_v spring_v out_o of_o it_o what_o have_v the_o son_n of_o god_n take_v our_o nature_n upon_o he_o have_v he_o body_n and_o blood_n and_o humane_a nature_n upon_o he_o oh_o how_o have_v god_n honour_v humane_a nature_n then_o let_v i_o not_o abuse_v my_o body_n to_o lust_n to_o wickedness_n see_v that_o jesus_n christ_n have_v take_v the_o body_n of_o man_n upon_o he_o humane_a nature_n upon_o he_o let_v i_o honour_v humane_a nature_n that_o be_v so_o near_o unite_v to_o the_o divine_a nature_n that_o be_v the_o second_o meditation_n meditation_n 3._o here_o be_v present_v unto_o we_o what_o this_o mediator_n have_v do_v for_o the_o reconcile_n of_o we_o unto_o god_n that_o his_o body_n be_v break_v he_o have_v subject_v himself_o to_o the_o break_n of_o his_o body_n and_o to_o the_o pour_v forth_o of_o his_o blood_n for_o the_o reconcile_n of_o we_o it_o be_v not_o mere_o as_o before_o that_o god_n say_v i_o will_v pardon_v they_o but_o christ_n undertake_v to_o make_v peace_n between_o his_o father_n and_o we_o it_o cost_v he_o the_o break_n of_o his_o body_n and_o the_o pour_v forth_o of_o his_o blood_n this_o be_v a_o useful_a meditation_n oh_o what_o shall_v we_o be_v willing_a to_o suffer_v for_o jesus_n christ_n in_o our_o body_n even_o to_o resist_v unto_o blood_n see_v christ_n have_v be_v content_a to_o have_v his_o precious_a body_n break_v and_o his_o blood_n shed_v for_o we_o meditation_n 4_o again_o a_o four_o meditation_n be_v this_o that_o here_o we_o come_v to_o see_v we_o have_v occasion_n of_o meditate_v of_o that_o the_o scripture_n say_v that_o we_o be_v by_o the_o blood_n of_o god_n save_v it_o be_v the_o blood_n of_o god_n they_o crucify_v the_o lord_n of_o glory_n that_o be_v the_o scripture_n phrase_n we_o shall_v consider_v when_o we_o see_v the_o wine_n pour_v out_o and_o so_o put_v in_o mind_n of_o blood_n who_o blood_n and_o who_o body_n be_v this_o it_o be_v no_o other_o but_o the_o body_n and_o blood_n of_o he_o that_o be_v true_o god_n the_o second_o person_n in_o trinity_n this_o be_v the_o great_a mystery_n of_o the_o gospel_n and_o this_o be_v very_o needful_a for_o we_o to_o be_v think_v of_o when_o we_o see_v the_o body_n break_v and_o the_o blood_n pour_v out_o what_o will_v the_o break_n of_o the_o body_n and_o shed_v of_o the_o blood_n of_o a_o mere_a creature_n be_v sufficient_a to_o make_v peace_n between_o god_n and_o man_n sure_o no_o therefore_o you_o must_v meditate_v who_o body_n this_o be_v and_o who_o blood_n this_o be_v it_o be_v the_o body_n and_o blood_n of_o he_o that_o be_v god_n it_o be_v true_a god_n have_v no_o body_n nor_o no_o blood_n but_o the_o same_o person_n that_o be_v god_n have_v a_o body_n and_o blood_n that_o body_n and_o blood_n be_v unite_v unto_o the_o divine_a nature_n in_o a_o hypostatical_a union_n and_o from_o thence_o it_o come_v to_o have_v a_o efficacy_n for_o to_o satisfy_v god_n for_o to_o reconcile_v god_n and_o we_o together_o this_o be_v the_o great_a mystery_n of_o godliness_n med._n 5._o another_o meditation_n be_v this_o when_o you_o see_v bread_n break_v and_o wine_n pour_v out_o oh_o the_o infinite_a dreadfulness_n of_o the_o justice_n of_o god_n how_o dreadful_a be_v the_o justice_n of_o god_n that_o come_v upon_o his_o own_o son_n and_o require_v satisfaction_n from_o he_o that_o shall_v thus_o break_v he_o and_o bruise_v he_o that_o shall_v have_v his_o blood_n that_o shall_v require_v such_o suffering_n even_o from_o his_o son_n dreadful_a be_v god_n justice_n the_o justice_n of_o god_n it_o be_v to_o be_v fear_v and_o to_o be_v tremble_v at_o here_o we_o see_v what_o be_v require_v for_o the_o sin_n of_o man_n and_o nothing_o will_v be_v bate_v to_o jesus_n christ_n himself_o med._n 6._o another_o meditation_n be_v this_o here_o i_o see_v present_v to_o i_o what_o every_o soul_n that_o shall_v be_v save_v cost_n whoever_o shall_v have_v his_o soul_n save_v he_o have_v it_o save_v by_o a_o ransom_n by_o a_o price_n pay_v that_o be_v more_o worth_a than_o ten_o thousand_o thousand_o world_n thou_o slight_a thy_o own_o soul_n but_o if_o it_o prove_v to_o be_v save_v it_o cost_v more_o than_o if_o thousand_o of_o world_n have_v be_v give_v for_o thou_o even_o the_o shed_n of_o the_o blood_n of_o christ_n every_o drop_n of_o which_o be_v more_o precious_a than_o ten_o thousand_o world_n meditation_n 7._o again_o from_o hence_o see_v what_o be_v the_o evil_a of_o sin_n how_o great_a it_o be_v that_o have_v make_v such_o a_o breach_n between_o god_n and_o my_o soul_n that_o only_o such_o a_o way_n and_o such_o a_o mean_n must_v take_v away_o my_o sin_n i_o must_v either_o have_v lie_v under_o the_o burden_n of_o my_o sin_n eternal_o or_o jesus_n christ_n that_n god_n and_o man_n must_v suffer_v so_o much_o for_o it_o oh_o what_o meditation_n be_v these_o to_o take_v up_o the_o heart_n of_o man_n meditation_n 8._o behold_v the_o infinite_a love_n of_o god_n to_o mankind_n and_o the_o love_n of_o jesus_n christ_n that_o rather_o than_o god_n will_v see_v the_o child_n of_o man_n to_o perish_v eternal_o he_o will_v send_v his_o son_n to_o take_v our_o nature_n upon_o he_o and_o thus_o to_o suffer_v such_o dreadful_a thing_n herein_o god_n show_v his_o love_n it_o be_v not_o the_o love_n of_o god_n so_o much_o in_o give_v you_o a_o good_a voyage_n and_o prosper_v you_o outward_o in_o the_o world_n but_o so_o god_n love_v the_o world_n that_o he_o give_v his_o only_a beget_v son_n and_o it_o please_v the_o father_n to_o break_v his_o son_n and_o to_o pour_v out_o his_o blood_n here_o be_v the_o love_n of_o god_n and_o of_o jesus_n christ_n oh_o what_o a_o

thou_o see_v nothing_o but_o a_o little_a bread_n and_o wine_n but_o now_o where_o the_o eye_n of_o faith_n be_v there_o be_v a_o real_a appearance_n of_o jesus_n christ_n to_o the_o soul_n as_o if_o
