Wherefore in

let
all
thole
that

to get
the

you

of this Scripture,
Am
not
I
the
man
or
woman
that
have hazarded
my foul
for
feeking after fomewhat
of
the
world

world
in
a
way
of
fin,
and
to
this day
thy heart
nor-
thorowly
humbled
for
it,
nor
repented
?
it
may
bee
not
to
this
day
made reftitution? hath
not the
eager purfuit after
tie
things
of
this
world
taken
thy
heart
up
fo
much,
that
thou
haft not
favoured the things of God and
eternal
life
?
thou
lookei
upon the things of
the world,
as
if
they
were the onely
rea-
lities,
but for fpiritual things,
they
are imaginations
;
have
not
the
things
of
this
world
fo,
taken
up thy fpirir,
as made
thee
to have fleight
thoughts of fpiritual and
heavenly
things
"?
haft
not
thou bleft thy
felf
in
the
inoyment
of
theee
things,
though in
the mean
time God
bath
not made
known
to
thee
the
riches
of
his
Kingdome
?
yet
thou
haft
thought
thy
felf
to
have
enough
in the
enjoyment
of
what
thou
haft;
haft
not thou
often , when thou
haft
been at
the Word,
had
thy
thoughts and fpirits about
the
things of the world,
as
the
things fuitable
to thee, but
the

yea
and
any
thing in
the
Word
that
bath
come clofe
to
that
covetous
corruption
Of
thine, thy
heart-
bath
fecretly derided
it;
there are
no
men in the
world that
do more
fecretly
condemn and deride the
things
of
God
fpiritual
things,
