thus_o much_o of_o the_o nature_n of_o true_a repentance_n i_o come_v now_o to_o some_o direction_n concern_v it_o i._o remember_v repentance_n though_o never_o so_o serious_a be_v not_o to_o be_v rest_v in_o as_o any_o satisfaction_n for_o sin_n or_o any_o cause_n of_o the_o pardon_n thereof_o that_o be_v the_o act_n of_o god_n free_a grace_n in_o christ_n yet_o it_o be_v of_o such_o necessity_n to_o sinner_n that_o none_o may_v expect_v pardon_n without_o it_o it_o be_v necessary_a for_o these_o three_o reason_n 1._o because_o god_n have_v command_v it_o and_o the_o gospel_n enjoin_v it_o as_o a_o condition_n of_o the_o new_a covenant_n 2._o that_o we_o may_v taste_v something_o of_o the_o bitterness_n of_o sin_n that_o so_o we_o may_v the_o more_o careful_o avoid_v it_o for_o the_o time_n to_o come_v 3._o to_o prepare_v and_o fit_v we_o to_o receive_v pardon_n to_o dispose_v we_o into_o such_o a_o frame_n as_o be_v suitable_a to_o such_o a_o blessing_n 4._o to_o make_v we_o set_v a_o high_a value_n on_o god_n pardon_v mercy_n and_o christ_n merit_n and_o blood_n how_o dear_a and_o precious_a be_v christ_n to_o a_o soul_n true_o humble_v for_o sin_n ii_o consider_v as_o there_o be_v no_o sin_n so_o small_a but_o it_o deserve_v damnation_n so_o there_o be_v no_o sin_n so_o great_a that_o it_o can_v bring_v damnation_n upon_o those_o who_o true_o repent_v it_o be_v not_o the_o fall_n into_o the_o water_n drown_v a_o man_n but_o continue_v in_o it_o not_o get_v out_o again_o no_o sin_n damn_v a_o man_n but_o as_o it_o be_v accompany_v with_o final_a impenitency_n and_o unbelief_n therefore_o the_o sin_n against_o the_o holy_a ghost_n be_v unpardonable_a because_o those_o that_o commit_v that_o sin_n do_v never_o repent_v or_o fly_v to_o christ_n for_o pardon_n iii_o look_v to_o it_o that_o thy_o repentance_n and_o sorrow_n for_o thy_o sin_n spring_n from_o evangelicall_n motive_n such_o as_o be_v before_o mention_v and_o not_o mere_o from_o shame_n or_o fear_v of_o hell_n &_o wrath_n iv_o labour_n that_o thy_o sorrow_n for_o sin_n may_v bear_v some_o proportion_n to_o the_o greatness_n of_o thy_o sin_n every_o small_a touch_n of_o sorrow_n may_v not_o be_v sufficient_a as_o sin_n be_v the_o great_a of_o evil_n so_o our_o sorrow_n for_o it_o shall_v be_v the_o great_a sorrow_n betake_v thyself_o therefore_o to_o a_o more_o solemn_a mourning_n and_o rent_v of_o heart_n for_o the_o great_a sin_n of_o thy_o life_n refuse_v to_o be_v comfort_v with_o any_o worldly_a comfort_n till_o thou_o have_v obtain_v thy_o pardon_n but_o remember_v godly_a sorrow_n be_v not_o always_o to_o be_v measure_v by_o plenty_n of_o tear_n and_o vehemency_n of_o expression_n but_o by_o the_o weight_n of_o it_o on_o the_o heart_n by_o the_o deep_a displeasure_n of_o the_o soul_n against_o sin_n there_o may_v be_v a_o deep_a rational_a sorrow_n for_o sin_n where_o there_o be_v no_o such_o outward_a passionate_a expression_n of_o it_o v._o content_v not_o thyself_o with_o a_o general_a repentance_n but_o know_v that_o it_o be_v thy_o duty_n to_o endeavour_v to_o repent_v of_o thy_o particular_a sin_n particular_o do_v not_o slubber_v over_o this_o great_a duty_n which_o so_o much_o concern_v thou_o with_o a_o slight_a formal_a general_a repentance_n as_o too_o many_o be_v apt_a to_o do_v many_o sin_n long_o ago_o commit_v by_o thou_o may_v still_o lie_v at_o thy_o door_n if_o not_o repent_v of_o review_n therefore_o thy_o life_n past_a suffer_v thy_o conscience_n to_o speak_v free_o to_o thou_o and_o to_o

sin_n be_v accompany_v with_o a_o real_a forsake_v of_o all_o know_a sin_n and_o amendment_n of_o life_n content_v not_o thyself_o with_o a_o partial_a reformation_n vii_o set_a upon_o the_o
