and then the impurity of
our
hearts,
O
what
a
fil-
thy
fly
of uncleanneffe
is
the
faulty of
thinking in
many
men
and
women
;
In
the thoughts
of
rnens
minds
there
is
the moll
abominable
tncleannelfe, that
one would
wonder
that
an
Infi-

holy
God ft
ould be able
to
look upon

tures,
and not
come
outagainit
them
in his
wrath
;
the belt
of
us
all, may
fnd
much uncleanneffe in our
thoughts;
fonie-
time
when thou haft
been in the prefence of
God
in
prayer,
.
how hall thou
defied
thy
felfe
with uncleane thoughts
, how
haft thou come
into
Gods
prefence with
a
foule
all
befmoer'd
with
filthineffe,
and
come
,out
of
Gods
pretence
with
a foule.
'all
dèf
l'd
with the
abominable uncleanneffe
of
thy thoughts,
And
then the
unéleanneffe of thy will and
of
eétions,
and
delires
;
what
delires
haft
thou had
to
fin, and fo
defild thy

faculties
of
men
and womens foules are
as
filthy
as any

and
didfl
thou
but
under

what
the
infinite purity
of Gods
nature meanes,
and
the
infinite purity
of
Gods
Law
means,
and
then but underftand,
what thy owne
heart
is, thou wouldeft abhor thy felfe
;
Many
of
you
thank
God
you
have good hearts,
ô
but
it
is
becaufe
God
is not
knowne
,
and
the
holinefie
of
his Law is
not
known,
and your owne hearts
are
not
knowne
did
you
bút
know
thefe
three
things,
you
would fee caufe I
fay,
to
abhor
your
felves;
I
put
this
to
you, fometinies when you have been
brought
u:on
tick
beds, then
when
you
have come
to
fee
that
you have
had
to deale
with
God,
have
you
not
had mif-giving
thoughts
then,
when
you
have
been ready
to
goe
into the pre-
fence of
the
infinite
holy
God,
then
hath
not
your Confcien-
ces
reproved
you
for your uncleanneffe,
then
hath
not
your
Confciences
told
you, how canft thou fland
in
the prefence
of
this
holy
God.
We
read
in
the Prophet
ifaiah,though
he were
a
holy man,
a
man
that
had
much
purity
and cleanneffe
in
him,.
yet
becaufe
there
