for,
that
all
the time
of their
lives
is
given
them
to
make
up
their
peace
with
God
;
you
are to
know
it
is
given
for
this end,
meer-
ly
as a
Malefactor hath

Reprieve to

Pardon;t'his

I
profifs
to

thefe dayes
?
you
are
not
certain of
one
day,
it
may
be
not

;
Do

fpend thefe dayes
in
making
it
the
great
bufinefs and
work
of
your
Sßtils

out
a
Pardon
?
Let
me fpeak
to
you,
and
O
that
you would
fpeak it
in
fecret between
God
and
your
own
Souls,
and
that you would anfwer
in
the
Name
of
God
every
foul prefent, to
this
Queftion,
Soul
haft
thon made
it
the
great
work.and
buf
nef
s
of
thy
life,
above
all things
in
the
world,to
fue
out
thy
Pardon, and
feel
for
Reconciliation
with
thy God,
and
a,
difcharge
of
thy
fans
?
I
verily
fear
that many
of
you that
hear
me this
day,
if
we
could
but
hear
Confcience fpeak,
would an-
fwer,
What
?
I make
it the

and bufinefs
of
my
life

fue
out
a
Pardon
?
God
knows
it
hath
been
the great work
and
bufinefs
of
my
life
to
increafe my
guilt
;
there
is
not
a
day

head, but
I
have
brought
more guilt
upon
my
felf
by
wicked
Oaths,
taking Gods Name
in
vain,
negleding
his
Worfhip,
abufing of
his
creatures,
perhaps
by
drunkennefs
or
uncleannefs
;
methinks
your
Confciences
might mif-give
you,
when
you are
fo
far
from making
it
the
great
bufinefs
of

your
great
work

your
guilt

to
get pardon of
thy
fin,
fo
long
as
thou
goeft on to increafe
thy
guilt,
and
make
thy felf
more vile
?
