they_o to_o chew_v they_o no_o marvel_n then_o though_o they_o spit_v they_o out_o and_o do_v not_o swallow_v they_o they_o shall_v swallow_v they_o down_o and_o not_o chew_v they_o and_o so_o when_o

labour_n to_o swallow_v difficulty_n as_o much_o as_o we_o can_v we_o have_v a_o notable_a place_n for_o this_o purpose_n in_o psal_n 86.4_o 5._o rejoice_v the_o soul_n of_o thy_o servant_n for_o unto_o thou_o o_o lord_n do_v i_o lift_v up_o my_o soul_n for_o thou_o lord_n be_v good_a and_o ready_a to_o forgive_v and_o plenteous_a in_o mercy_n unto_o all_o they_o that_o call_v upon_o thou_o thus_o we_o apply_v it_o the_o cause_n why_o many_o go_v so_o droop_v in_o their_o way_n and_o have_v no_o joy_n and_o comfort_n in_o any_o of_o their_o way_n be_v because_o they_o look_v downward_o in_o the_o dark_a if_o a_o man_n be_v in_o the_o bottom_n of_o a_o deep_a pit_n and_o always_o look_v downward_o he_o can_v never_o see_v light_a if_o he_o will_v see_v light_a he_o must_v look_v upward_o to_o the_o sun_n so_o mark_v the_o way_n of_o david_n rejoice_v the_o soul_n of_o thy_o servant_n for_o unto_o thou_o o_o lord_n do_v i_o lift_v up_o my_o soul_n if_o david_n have_v let_v his_o heart_n always_o fall_v downward_o he_o will_v never_o have_v joy_n in_o his_o way_n but_o when_o he_o will_v have_v joy_n he_o lift_v up_o his_o heart_n so_o if_o there_o be_v any_o work_n that_o be_v difficult_a and_o your_o heart_n be_v trouble_v will_v you_o have_v that_o which_o shall_v rejoice_v you_o lift_v up_o your_o soul_n to_o god_n in_o those_o encourage_v way_n that_o he_o present_v to_o you_o for_o thou_o lord_n be_v good_a and_o ready_a to_o forgive_v and_o plenteous_a in_o mercy_n here_o be_v a_o way_n to_o get_v mercy_n he_o lift_v up_o his_o soul_n and_o look_v upon_o god_n as_o good_a and_o ready_a to_o forgive_v and_o plenteous_a in_o mercy_n i_o appeal_v to_o you_o when_o do_v you_o lift_v up_o your_o soul_n and_o look_v up_o to_o god_n as_o plenteous_a in_o mercy_n you_o always_o look_v downward_o in_o the_o bottom_n of_o the_o pit_n and_o see_v the_o blackness_n of_o god_n justice_n ready_a to_o seize_v upon_o you_o but_o you_o shall_v lift_v up_o your_o soul_n to_o god_n and_o look_v to_o the_o sun_n we_o shall_v not_o always_o be_v pore_v upon_o those_o thing_n that_o be_v difficult_a but_o see_v those_o thing_n that_o be_v encourage_v 22._o do_v not_o make_v use_n of_o difficulty_n in_o your_o way_n to_o reason_n against_o your_o work_n or_o to_o make_v you_o out_o of_o love_n with_o your_o work_n but_o to_o reason_n against_o your_o heart_n indeed_o it_o be_v a_o hard_a work_n but_o it_o be_v through_o my_o wretched_a sluggish_a heart_n and_o because_o i_o do_v not_o make_v use_n of_o the_o mean_n and_o ability_n that_o god_n afford_v i_o many_o that_o have_v less_o mean_n and_o help_n than_o i_o can_v go_v through_o hard_a work_n than_o i_o and_o so_o labour_v to_o reason_n against_o your_o own_o heart_n and_o not_o the_o work_n many_o when_o they_o feel_v the_o work_n hard_a reason_n against_o the_o work_n the_o lord_n know_v i_o strive_v and_o do_v what_o i_o can_v but_o i_o have_v so_o many_o let_n and_o hindrance_n god_n do_v not_o come_v in_o with_o his_o grace_n to_o help_v i_o and_o i_o can_v do_v nothing_o without_o god_n how_o come_v it_o to_o pass_v nothing_o be_v do_v because_o the_o work_n be_v hard_a or_o because_o you_o do_v not_o use_v what_o power_n god_n give_v to_o do_v it_o withal_o now_o the_o safe_a way_n be_v rather_o to_o reason_n against_o yourselves_o that_o you_o have_v not_o do_v what_o you_o can_v but_o you_o rather_o put_v off_o all_o the_o guilt_n from_o yourselves_o and_o justify_v yourselves_o and_o that_o be_v all_o the_o reason_n why_o nothing_o be_v do_v it_o be_v because_o the_o work_n be_v hard_a and_o you_o have_v so_o many_o hindrance_n and_o that_o god_n have_v not_o give_v you_o his_o power_n but_o if_o you_o look_v into_o your_o own_o heart_n you_o will_v find_v another_o reason_n it_o be_v not_o so_o much_o the_o hardness_n of_o the_o work_n as_o the_o ill_a disposition_n of_o your_o heart_n and_o that_o shall_v be_v your_o care_n not_o to_o reason_n against_o the_o work_n because_o it_o be_v difficult_a but_o against_o your_o heart_n and_o to_o conclude_v all_o this_o be_v all_o i_o say_v we_o shall_v labour_v to_o harden_v ourselves_o by_o our_o faith_n against_o all_o difficulty_n as_o unbelief_n be_v a_o harden_v sin_n one_o way_n so_o faith_n be_v a_o harden_v grace_n another_o way_n unbelief_n harden_v in_o that_o which_o be_v evil_a and_o faith_n harden_v in_o that_o which_o be_v good_a act_n 19.9_o but_o when_o divers_a be_v harden_v and_o believe_v not_o they_o be_v harden_v because_o they_o do_v not_o believe_v and_o faith_n have_v the_o contrary_a effect_n and_o will_v do_v as_o much_o in_o that_o which_o be_v good_a as_o unbelief_n can_v do_v in_o that_o which_o be_v evil_a as_o unbelief_n will_v make_v a_o man_n or_o woman_n so_o hard_o as_o to_o be_v as_o iron_n to_o that_o which_o be_v good_a so_o faith_n will_v make_v a_o man_n as_o iron_n to_o that_o which_o be_v evil_a and_o therefore_o the_o prophet_n jeremiah_n be_v compare_v to_o iron_n and_o steel_n jer._n 15.12_o shall_v iron_n break_v the_o northern_a iron_n and_o the_o steel_n god_n have_v reveal_v himself_o to_o he_o gracious_o and_o he_o be_v harden_v by_o it_o now_o of_o all_o grace_n especial_o faith_n do_v make_v the_o heart_n as_o iron_n for_o god_n as_o unbelief_n do_v make_v the_o heart_n as_o iron_n to_o stand_v out_o against_o god_n and_o therefore_o be_v the_o exhortation_n of_o the_o apostle_n 2_o peter_n 1.5_o ad_fw-la to_o your_o faith_n virtue_n the_o word_n virtus_n come_v from_o strength_n because_o every_o virtue_n put_v forth_o strength_n so_o it_o be_v as_o much_o as_o if_o he_o shall_v say_v add_v to_o your_o faith_n strength_n put_v it_o forth_o strong_o that_o it_o may_v help_v you_o against_o strong_a difficulty_n with_o a_o warlike_a power_n virtue_n have_v a_o power_n to_o oppose_v enemy_n and_o so_o add_v to_o your_o faith_n virtue_n and_o if_o we_o do_v so_o know_v it_o will_v be_v a_o very_a honourable_a thing_n it_o be_v a_o honour_n to_o god_n &_o honour_n to_o we_o for_o we_o to_o go_v through_o difficult_a thing_n it_o be_v honour_n to_o god_n as_o david_n man_n that_o endure_v so_o much_o that_o break_v through_o a_o host_n for_o to_o get_v he_o water_n it_o be_v a_o honour_n to_o he_o and_o so_o for_o we_o to_o do_v difficult_a thing_n for_o god_n it_o be_v a_o honour_n to_o god_n and_o it_o be_v honourable_a to_o we_o non_fw-la so_o honourable_a as_o those_o that_o have_v go_v through_o difficult_a work_n it_o will_v make_v they_o honourable_a to_o

of_o all_o thing_n now_o that_o be_v a_o rule_n no_o inferior_a cause_n can_v work_v but_o by_o a_o influence_n from_o the_o superior_a and_o therefore_o when_o by_o faith_n the_o eye_n can_v behold_v

the_o force_n of_o that_o power_n be_v from_o that_o four_o the_o success_n of_o that_o power_n be_v from_o that_o cause_n and_o when_o the_o soul_n look_v up_o to_o this_o high_a cause_n and_o see_v all_o clear_a there_o it_o need_v not_o much_o to_o look_v how_o it_o be_v with_o the_o inferior_a cause_n as_o if_o a_o man_n have_v a_o instrument_n that_o hang_v upon_o many_o wheel_n though_o
