be_v to_o stir_v you_o up_o to_o the_o love_n and_o practice_n of_o devotion_n as_o a_o proper_a way_n of_o make_v your_o life_n up_o wherein_o soever_o you_o may_v have_v be_v hitherto_o defective_a to_o recover_v what_o have_v be_v mis-spend_v and_o to_o fit_v yourself_o for_o god_n and_o heaven_n without_o frequent_a act_n of_o piety_n be_v impossible_a rather_o it_o be_v a_o way_n to_o lose_v on_o and_o spend_v amiss_o still_o and_o to_o make_v your_o condition_n every_o day_n worse_o and_o worse_o and_o this_o be_v one_o great_a reason_n that_o there_o be_v so_o many_o evil_a people_n in_o the_o world_n because_o they_o neglect_v a_o course_n of_o devotion_n which_o if_o diligent_o and_o right_o follow_v can_v not_o choose_v but_o make_v they_o better_o i_o do_v not_o mean_v that_o every_o one_o be_v a_o saint_n that_o resort_v to_o the_o church_n or_o that_o the_o repeat_n of_o so_o many_o good_a prayer_n be_v enough_o to_o dispose_v and_o qualify_v people_n for_o eternal_a

in_o compliance_n with_o a_o custom_n or_o out_o of_o compliment_n and_o civility_n to_o the_o law_n than_o for_o conscience_n sake_n towards_o god_n but_o this_o be_v my_o meaning_n that_o when_o man_n apply_v their_o soul_n to_o the_o use_n of_o god_n ordinance_n as_o a_o necessary_a duty_n and_o serious_o intend_v to_o do_v themselves_o good_a by_o the_o use_n of_o they_o and_o go_v about_o it_o with_o sincerity_n of_o mind_n and_o exercise_v themselves_o in_o it_o with_o attentive_a zeal_n and_o with_o humble_a fervent_a and_o devout_a spirit_n when_o their_o heart_n be_v thus_o honest_o dispose_v they_o take_v such_o a_o ready_a course_n to_o fit_v themselves_o for_o heaven_n as_o god_n will_v be_v sure_a to_o bless_v and_o prosper_n with_o success_n if_o they_o persevere_v unto_o the_o end_n in_o so_o do_v they_o be_v then_o in_o god_n way_n and_o in_o the_o way_n of_o the_o holy_a spirit_n to_o enlighten_v their_o understanding_n to_o guide_v they_o into_o the_o truth_n to_o renew_v their_o mind_n to_o sanctify_v their_o affection_n to_o direct_v their_o will_n to_o improve_v and_o perfect_v their_o nature_n and_o to_o assist_v and_o strengthen_v they_o unto_o every_o good_a work_n and_o by_o this_o mean_n as_o they_o obtain_v pardon_n for_o their_o past_a miscarriage_n so_o they_o gradual_o retrieve_v their_o former_a loss_n and_o make_v the_o time_n past_o their_o own_o again_o by_o their_o extraordinary_a husbandry_n of_o the_o remainder_n and_o by_o fill_v up_o a_o hiatus_fw-la with_o a_o proportionable_a supplement_n 2._o second_o as_o the_o diligent_a attendance_n upon_o god_n ordinance_n help_v we_o to_o redeem_v the_o time_n that_o be_v go_v so_o it_o serve_v to_o keep_v we_o from_o lose_v more_o for_o the_o future_a we_o may_v reckon_v that_o time_n to_o be_v lose_v which_o be_v spend_v either_o after_o a_o wicked_a or_o after_o a_o vain_a manner_n that_o be_v when_o the_o conscience_n contract_v some_o great_a gild_n in_o the_o spend_n of_o it_o or_o when_o the_o man_n get_v no_o solid_a benefit_n or_o satisfaction_n by_o it_o though_o strict_o speak_v we_o can_v affirm_v it_o be_v sin_v away_o and_o in_o both_o these_o respect_n we_o shall_v see_v that_o a_o course_n of_o devotion_n secure_v we_o from_o be_v any_o considerable_a loser_n 1._o first_o that_o time_n be_v to_o be_v account_v lose_v which_o be_v

again_o to_o be_v sure_a he_o himself_o reckon_v so_o much_o of_o his_o time_n quite_o throw_v oway_o be_v willing_a to_o raze_v it_o out_o of_o his_o own_o memory_n and_o hearty_o wish_v that_o the_o

instead_o of_o mercy_n they_o shall_v draw_v down_o a_o thunderbolt_n and_o instead_o of_o bread_n shall_v receive_v a_o stone_n or_o a_o scorpion_n they_o who_o have_v a_o sense_n of_o god_n must_v needs_o be_v rich_a of_o offer_v up_o such_o prayer_n as_o be_v enough_o to_o put_v they_o out_o of_o countenance_n and_o out_o of_o hope_n too_o such_o prayer_n as_o they_o know_v will_v recoil_v upon_o they_o and_o not_o only_o fly_v in_o their_o face_n but_o terrify_v and_o gall_v their_o very_a conscience_n also_o but_o in_o truth_n we_o can_v suppose_v man_n of_o pious_a mind_n to_o
