;againft
thernfelves
for
their:fns,&
yet
all
this
while,God
knows
with
a
defperate, dull,
'dead and
fenflefs
heart
for their
fins
;
it
may
bé
others that joyn with them, their hearts
are broken with
their
expreffions,
and
yet
in
the
mean time
thy
Confcience may
tell
thee,
thy
heart
is
deiperately hard
before
God,
and
not
fen
-
fible at
all
of
what thou
fpeakeft
;
thou
wert
putting
up
Peti-
tions to
God
,
and
yet
with
as
dull
and fenllefs
a
fpirit,
as
if
thou wert
fpeaking
of
a
matter
of
no confequence at
all
;
this
is
a
high degree of
taking
the
Mired Name of
God
in
vain
;
for
we are to know, the
Name of
God
in
forgivenefs offin
is
a
molt
glorious Name,
and we had need to
take heed
how we
fpeak
to
God
in
this
bufinefs,
that
we take not his
Name
in vain
,
will not
hold_
him
guiltiefs that
takes
his
Name
in
vain;
we
had
need
to look
to
the
fandifying of
Gods
Name
in
thi ,thing
:
Ma-
ny
a
man
will
think
it
of
himself,
that to (wear
and
blalpheme
is
a
taking
of
the
Name
of
God
in
vain
?
and
why
is
it
fo?
becaufe
it
is a
fin
againft
the
third
Commandment,
Thwt
]halt
not
take
the
Name of
thy
God
in
vain;
&c.
for my
part
I
cannot
but
think
that
to
make
large
Confeflions
of
f
n,and yet with
a
fenf
efs
dead
heart,is
a
high
degree
of
taking
the
Name
of
God
in
vain
;
(mi-
flake
me
not,
if
thy heart
be fenfible
of thy
unfenfiblenefs
,
thou
art
not
of
thofe
that
take
the
Name
of
God
in
vain;
God
accepts
of
this,
it
is
the
rational
part
of
the
foul
that
is
taken
with
this,
ánd this
is
pleading
to him, though
thou
can't
not bring
the
fen-
fitive
part
of
the
foul
up to
this
thing
;
but4
fpeak it
of
thofe
that
have
got
a
formality
in
crying
and
coy
eiling
of
their
fins,
and
yet
are
unfenfible
of
them
;
yea,
it
may be,
glory
in
this,
that
they
can in
the
Church
thus
fpeak
of
their
fins,
and
have
fuch expreffions before the
Lord
;
take heed
of
this,if
you
would
'hew
your
parts
and
abilities,
let it
be in
fomething
elfe,
and
not
to
come before the
holy
God,
and
before others
in
a
holy
duty to
vent
your parts
and
abilities
there
:
it
is
a
dangerous
thing
for
any to meddle
fo
in
this
kind,
