A26847	Of your own Mortality?
A26847	Or in an Afflicted condition?
A26847	Plutarch, telleth us this Story of a Roman, He put away his Wife; his Friends thereupon asked him, VVhat fault he found with her?
A26847	Question, Whether it be lawful to pray for the things of this life?
A26847	Riches,& c?
A26847	Seeing there are many things that increase Vanity, what is Man the better?
A26847	Seeing there be many things that increase vanity, what is man the better?
A26847	Shall mortal man be just with God?
A26847	Shall not the Judg of all the Earth do Right?
A26847	Should we expect that Grace should have no Conflict, no Conquest before the Triumph; but be Crown''d, before we have shewed what it can do?
A26847	So ask a man, whether he be fit and able to bear a prosperous condition?
A26847	So the Question is, Whether this Truth, do not deny and destroy all Care of Providence?
A26847	So the things to be Known, are these: 1. Who is the Framer of our Conditions; Who it is Ordains and Appoints them, and puts us into them?
A26847	So then, Would a man know, whether prosperity be good for him; I would ask him this, What use he doth make of the things of a prosperous condition?
A26847	So then, in a prosperous condition, we should put this Question to our selves, What use we make of the things of the condition?
A26847	So we may say, Is God Unrighteous, that sendeth Affliction?
A26847	So, Can any good come out of Afflictions?
A26847	So, How can those things, that increase cares and troubles, make Man the better?
A26847	So, in every condition we should put this Question to our selves; What is it that the Lord requires me do, as the work of my condition?
A26847	So, on the contrary; Would you know, Whether an Afflicted condition be Evil for a Man?
A26847	Some may Ask, What is a convenient Estate?
A26847	Some may ask, But what are those things that are good without doubt, without controversy, for a man in this life?
A26847	Some may ask, What is it that speaks our giving the things of another life, the Preheminence?
A26847	Some there are that possess much in this life, but never put this question, Do I enjoy God, with the things that I receive from him?
A26847	The Apostle James, puts this Question, Can a Fountain send forth sweet water and bitter?
A26847	The Scripture discovereth this to us, What are the true Correctives of a Condition?
A26847	The great Question you are to put to your selves, is, Whether you are Spiritual gainers or losers by your condition?
A26847	The great Question, we are to put to our selves, is this, VVhether Affliction, hath opened a way for Instruction to come to our Hearts?
A26847	The question we are to put to our selves in an Afflicted Condition, is, What Instruction the Affliction hath Sealed to us?
A26847	The second thing to be Enquired after, is, Of what Men, this is to be understood?
A26847	There be many that say,( saith David) Who will shew us any good?
A26847	There is a known Story, of the answer that a Shepheard returned to some Travailers, who asked him, What weather they should have?
A26847	There were Talents delivered, and the Master called his servants to an account, how they had used, and improved those Talents?
A26847	Thereupon, Solomon makes this great Enquiry, Wherein Man''s chiefest Good and Happinesse consists?
A26847	This evil is of the Lord, why should I wait any longer?
A26847	Thou, o Rich man, knowest not but that thy riches may be for thy hurt, Why shouldst thou then despise the poor?
A26847	Though we are not able to tell you concerning outward things, What are good for a man in this life?
A26847	Thus a man should reason with himself; Why should I be proud of those things which have proved evill to some, and I know not but they may be so to me?
A26847	Thus we have finished the First thing, by which a man is to make a judgment of an Afflicted Condition; whether it be good for him in this life or not?
A26847	Thus, in General, You see what we Answer to the Question, Whether Evils of Affliction may be Prayed against?
A26847	To how many have they become a Trap, and Snare, and occasions of Sin?
A26847	Upon this, Pharoah thought, that he depended not upon God, for the fruitfulness of his Country; and presumes to say, Is not the River mine?
A26847	VVe are apt to affect the higher conditions, but we should look to this, Whether the place we sit in, be the place of God''s choosing?
A26847	VVe should consider, VVhether we do not take the Honour to our selves, of placing our selves in conditions?
A26847	VVhat do we deserve?
A26847	VVhether we did not place our selves?
A26847	VVho is it, that can look upon himself as such, and yet stand upon it, to have what he will?
A26847	WE now come to answer another Question, that some may Ask, concerning, What is convenient?
A26847	Was not my Soul grieved for the Poor?
A26847	We are to see, What good our Blood- letting hath done us, Whether it hath taken down our high Colour, and our high Looks?
A26847	We are to see, Whether it hath taken away any of our corrupt Blood?
A26847	We should see, Whether Afflictions do melt our hearts?
A26847	What Glory we have brought to God?
A26847	What Good we have done to others?
A26847	What Instructions hath Affliction Sealed concerning Sin?
A26847	What Instructions hath Afflictions Sealed concerning the Creature?
A26847	What Instructions hath Afflictions Sealed concerning your selves?

A26847	What comfort hath a Great man, if he hath the Stone in the Bladder, or the Gout?
A26847	What doest thou here, Elijah?
A26847	What hath the Poor, that knoweth to walk before the Living?
A26847	What if a prosperous condition should change?
A26847	What is it, that makes a Prosperous condition Evil to some?
A26847	What is the cause that to some, Afflictions are so heavy?
A26847	What is the meaning of that?
A26847	What is your carriage, and behaviour in the condition?
A26847	What may allay the Sweetness, and Pleasantness of Prosperity, that they be not too much lifted up?
A26847	What those things are?
A26847	What was the cause of all this?
A26847	What we have been?
A26847	What we have done?
A26847	What you do in your condition?
A26847	What you make of your condition?
A26847	When Esau asked Jacob, Whose Children are these?
A26847	When God Afflicts, and Chastiseth, and Corrects, Who would think there were good in His Intention?

A26847	When we are either in a Prosperous or an Adverse condition, and are asked, How we came there?
A26847	When we can say, as Job did, Shall we receive good at the hands of God, and shall we not receive evil?
A26847	When you went into the Furnace you went in dross, but do you come forth as Gold?
A26847	Where is the man that can come forth and say, That his Riches and Honours, did ever change his heart or reform his life?
A26847	Wherein stands the Adorning of a man''s Condition?
A26847	Whether God''s dealings with us, please us; and our carriage, in our condition, please Him?
A26847	Whether it be lawful to Pray for outward and worldly good things, as Riches,& c. Since we know not, but we may pray for what is evil for us?
A26847	Whether it hath Purified and Refined them?
A26847	Whether it hath melted a Proud Heart into Humility?
A26847	Whether they can love a hiding God?
A26847	Whether they can walk dutifully, when God walketh strangely?
A26847	Who knoweth what is good for man in this Life?
A26847	Who would esteem of Beauty,( saith another) which a Whore may have, as well as an honest Woman?
A26847	Why doth the living man complain, a man for the punishment of his sins?
A26847	Why doth the living man complain?
A26847	Why doth the way of the wicked prosper?
A26847	Why should he not patiently endure the akeing of teeth, that knowes he hath deserved the gnashing of teeth?
A26847	Why wilt thou set thy heart upon that which is not?
A26847	Would you know, whether Prosperity be Good for a Man?

A26847	and Holiness to Jehovah, upon your Fore- heads?
A26847	and the burning of a feaver, when he knoweth he hath deserved Burning in Hell?
A26847	and worth my sorrow?
A26847	but how careless, when he was David the King?
A26847	for the choosing or refusing a condition; so that I may not do what is contrary the Will of God, and to my own good?
A26847	hath He given you, the New Name, which none knoweth, but he that hath it?

A26847	whether he be fit for Honour and Riches?
A26847	whether it intend good, or evil?
A26847	whether it proceed from love, or hatred?
A26847	why should I fret and murmur at these dispensations?

A53048	At what Rate are they, said the Man?
A53048	But a grave old man coming there, asked him, Why he lay in that posture?
A53048	But after the Chirurgeons had search''d his Wounds, he ask''d them, Whether they were mortal?
A53048	But as she went home, she enquired of her Unkle of the Company: Pray Sir, said she, was the Duke or Duchess there?
A53048	But how came you to be cured, said she?
A53048	But how will you dispose of me?
A53048	But if I be( said she) thought handsome, What then?
A53048	But if thou hadst been in Love with him( said her Unkle), Where had been your content then?
A53048	But though they ought to be so, said the other yet they are not always so: for, were not many of the Roman Emperors called, The Foolish Emperors?

A53048	Is there no Peace in Nature to be found?
A53048	Is this the only reason, said she?

A53048	It proves me neither: for, Why should I disgust my Palat, in hearing a confused Noise?
A53048	Just Judges, answered she: WHAT though he secretly disliked of that Act be made?
A53048	Lady, said he, will you give me leave to place you?
A53048	Lord, Unkle, said she, What a horrid Noise is here?
A53048	Make you no sympathy in Human Kind?
A53048	Most of the Nobles being here, and none but Peasants left behind, who have no skill in Warrs, and only fight like Beasts?
A53048	Must Misery and Fear attend us round?
A53048	Must all your Works consist in contradiction?
A53048	Nay, Man will destroy his own Kind: for, What Warrs and Slaughter do they make, out of a covetous Ambition for Power and Authority?
A53048	Nay, not only to love, but to love a Slave, and he regards me not: Do I say, Slave?
A53048	Nay, what have I not lost?
A53048	No Gratitude, but there dost lye, In dark Oblivion for to dye?
A53048	No, said she, I never will trust a broken Wheel: Do you know what is in my Power, said she?
A53048	O Father, said Travelia, Must you go, and leave me here behind?
A53048	Or are you a Spirit that thus speaks to me?
A53048	Or do we all enjoy nothing but Fiction?

A53048	Or who will rescue me from those that seek my ruin?
A53048	Or, how durst Men their Tongues or Lips to move In argument, his mighty Power to prove?

A53048	Said he, Why may not we our Senses all delight?
A53048	Said she, That Question I would ask of you, For I do doubt my Senses are not true Intelligencers; are you the Prince I see?
A53048	Shall they live by our hard Labour?
A53048	Shall we despise the Gift of the Gods, in making no use of what they give us?
A53048	She answered, By my troth, Mistress, the Gentleman''s Discourse hath painted your Cheeks; pray Mistress, saith she, doth he talk finely?
A53048	She answered, No; she would first see them that were to take them: Who is it that would take them, said she?
A53048	She said, Honour did not bind or require any Man to ruin himself: wherefore, said she, every Man may, nay ought to entertain according to his Estate?

A53048	There he gathered some Fruit to eat, but it had no tast; and he gathered some Flowers, and they had no smell: Of which he asked the reason?

A53048	Who was he that first took me out to dance, said she?
A53048	Who were those, said they?

A53048	and, How he came there?
A53048	and, How you came here?
A53048	and, What you are?
A53048	and, Whether they were from all Eternity?
A53048	for, Can there be any thing vainer, than for Age to rant and swagger, brag and boast, or to be vain- glorious?
A53048	or else made the Thest Upon her self, since she hath nothing left Of what is handsom?
A53048	or is she fled?
A53048	or to disturb my solitary hours, which is the best and happiest time of Life, wherein Man only doth enjoy himself?
A53048	or will you not?
A53048	or, Am I become a Burthen, you so desire to part with me, in giving me to a Husband?
A53048	or, If she were sick?
A53048	salutes me?
A53048	the Countreys or Kingdoms?
A53048	what praise?
A53048	whither do you run?
A42781	& c. Can such an Heart as thine be the Temple of the Holy Ghost?
A42781	''T is now time to speak to the other Question, which is, Whether and how far Satan knows things to come?
A42781	( When they propound that Question, What shall we do, that we might work the works of God?)
A42781	( say they) can he judge through the dark clouds?
A42781	( where the account of that tempting is given)''t is said, because they tempted the Lord, saying, Is the Lord among us or not?
A42781	10. describes him by these neglects of Duty, Will he delight himself in the Almighty?
A42781	41. while some were convinced and said, This is the Christ, others said, shall Christ come out of Galilee?
A42781	9. Who can know it?
A42781	A Proud Heart will readily say, our Tongue is our own, or who is the Lord?
A42781	A tedious task?
A42781	Am I a Sea, or a Whale, that thou settest a Watch over me?
A42781	Among the Papists what less can be expected, when the same principle is entertained among them?
A42781	And can you think to break away from me so easily?
A42781	And then he Queries, Art thou such an one?
A42781	And then to what purpose( say they) is Prayer, or any endeavours?
A42781	Are not these unreasonable injunctions, Pray continually, Pray without ceasing; Preach in season and out of season?
A42781	Art thou not grown stupid, and senseless of all the hazards that are before thee?
A42781	Art thou not ready to tax him for dealing thus with thee?
A42781	Art thou that Prophet, and that Man ordained to Judg the World?
A42781	As David said to the Woman of Tekoah, Is not the hand of Joab with thee in all this?
A42781	At what a loss is an unskilful Travellour, where so many wayes meet?
A42781	Besides( saith he) thou knowest the secret thoughts that thy Heart is privy to, do they not boyl up in thy Breast against God?
A42781	Besides, who can tell how much of God''s restraining grace may ly in this, of God''s limiting and straitning Satan''s Commission?
A42781	But Enquiry may be made, When do men run( uncalled and) unwarrantably upon Temptation?
A42781	But I have done so, and yet the Temptation is the same, and still continues?
A42781	But O how sadly is all this hindered by the disquiet of the Heart?
A42781	But how few are there that do thus know?
A42781	But how happy would it be for Men, if such failures of expectation might better inform them?
A42781	But how is it consistent with Truth that the Temptation should continue, when James tells us, that Satan will fly upon Resistance?
A42781	But it will be said, Satan pretends to this Rule, and it is Scripture that is urged by him?
A42781	But some( possibly) may say, Is it our Duty to sit still in such a case?
A42781	But the great Question is, What is this fear that is forbidden, and the Courage which is enjoined?
A42781	But the great difficulty is, how it may be known when Temptations are from Satan, and when from our selves?
A42781	But what occasioned all this?
A42781	But when we come to an impartial consideration of our manifold weaknesses and insufficiences in reference to these Services, what shall we say?
A42781	But who then inflames and stirs up the Heart to this Wickedness?
A42781	But you will say, Must all Men be confident of Adoption?
A42781	But( it may be further urged) must we when all Means fail, positively Trust in God for those very things which we might expect in an ordinary way?
A42781	But( may some say) If I judge such a motion to be a thing lawful, which doth proceed from Satan, What am I to do?
A42781	By this means he may widen the distance betwixt God and us, keep our Wounds open, make us a reproach to Religion: And what not?
A42781	Can Christ lodg in an Heart so full of horrid Blasphemies against him?
A42781	Can God prepare a Table in the Wilderness?
A42781	Can the Gifts of Enemies pass for Courtesies and Favours with any, but such as are bewitched into a blockish madness?
A42781	Can we reckon how often Satan hath been at this work?
A42781	Canst thou deny this?
A42781	David resolved, and strenuously endeavoured, to possess his Soul in Serenity and Patience,( for what could be more, than solemn engagement?
A42781	Did I not compel Peter to deny his Lord, notwithstanding his solemn profession to the contrary?
A42781	Did I not force those that were stronger than you?
A42781	Did I not make David number the People?
A42781	Did I not overcome him in the matter of Uriah?
A42781	Did the Heathen erect Images and Pillars, or keep the Ashes and Shrines of their Daemons?
A42781	Did the Heathen expect more particular aids from some of these Daemons in several cases than from others?
A42781	Doth he not carry a Design in his Mind for Months and Years against us?
A42781	Doth he not come again and again, with often and impudently repeated Importunities?
A42781	Eightly, Satan urged some of them in a during provoking way; If thou be the Son of God?
A42781	Every Christian should say, shall such an one as I fly?
A42781	First, from an Ignorance of the thing it self: how easily may they be Imposed upon, who know not the nature, or the usual Issues of things?
A42781	First; Whether Satan knows our Thoughts?
A42781	For can it be imagined in good earnest that Satan intends us a real good?
A42781	For who can alter his Decree?
A42781	For who can easily bear the noise of Satan while he shouts continually into their Ears odious Calumnies, and Blasphemous Indignities against God?
A42781	For why should God look upon thee more than another?
A42781	God himself owns it as a natural impossibility, Can the Ethiopian change his skin?
A42781	God''s question concerning Job, Hast thou considered my Servant Job?
A42781	Had the Heathen their Feasts, their Statas ferias to their Daemons?
A42781	Had the Heathens their dead Hero''s for Agents''twixt the supream Gods and Men?
A42781	Had they any more Holiness than they needed?
A42781	Had they their Februalia& Proserpinilia with Torches and Lights?
A42781	Hath the Lord forgotten to be Gracious?
A42781	Have any of the Rulers, or of the Pharisees believed on him?
A42781	Have they been able to rescue themselves?
A42781	Have those that have gone before you been able to deliver themselves from me?
A42781	He clave the Rock, but can he provide Flesh?
A42781	He complains as one utterly forsaken, Why hast thou forsaken me?
A42781	He is a jealous God, and will by no means acquit the guilty; Canst thou then with any shew of reason, conclude thy self to be his Child?
A42781	His Interrogation, Will the Lord cast off for ever,& c?
A42781	How astonishingly doth Spira speak to this purpose?
A42781	How canst thou deny this?
A42781	How come Men to put on a savage Nature, to act the part of Lions, Leopards, Tigars, if not much worse?
A42781	How common is it with them to play tricks with Women troubled with Hysterical Distempers?
A42781	How couragiously did they suffer the sharpest Torments?
A42781	How do ye stand?
A42781	How doth God know?
A42781	How easily he got him to the roof of the house in order to the Object to be presented to him?
A42781	How easily then is it for Satan to set our thoughts off our Work?
A42781	How easily then may Satan possess the Fancies of Men with Blasphemies?
A42781	How fair do they lye open to any conceit that may serve this end?
A42781	How fitly doth he resemble us to Children?
A42781	How frequently did the Prophets tax the Jews for this, that they fasted to themselves?
A42781	How frequently is this seen among Professors, where the Word hath a searching power and force upon them?
A42781	How grateful and welcome the confident proffers of ease and satisfaction are to a tossed and disquieted mind any Man will easily imagine?
A42781	How grievous must it be to a Child of God, to have his Ear chained to these intollerable ingrateful Reproaches?
A42781	How hard is it to conclude, what is the Minimum quod sic; the lowest degrees of true Grace?
A42781	How he directs his Eye, wrought upon his Passions, suggested the Thought, contrived the Conveniencies?
A42781	How impossible is it to cast up the total Sum of so many large Items?
A42781	How is Satan pleased to labour in a Design that will kindle the Wrath of the Almighty?
A42781	How like a Convert did Saul look, after David had convinced him of his integrity, and had spared his life in the Cave?
A42781	How little can a sickly Body do?
A42781	How many have I known, that have been tortured with these Texts, judging their Estate fearful, because of their wilfulness in sinning?
A42781	How many have apostatised from Truth( being terrifyed by the urging necessities of danger) contrary to the highest Convictions of Conscience?
A42781	How many mournful examples have we of this kind?
A42781	How many things do common Juglers by the swift motions of their Hands, that seem incredible?
A42781	How often have I heard Christians complaining thus?
A42781	How open are the Breasts of troubled Creatures to all these Darts?
A42781	How quickly had this Leaven spread it self in the Church of Galatia, even to Paul''s wonder?
A42781	How sad is this Trouble?
A42781	How severely did Christ condemn the Pharisees upon the same account?
A42781	How shameful and abominable were the Lives of John of Leyden, and the rest of those German Enthusiasts?
A42781	How slyly and secretly doth he put us upon what he intends as a further snare?
A42781	How suddenly are all things changed?
A42781	How weak and childish are Sinners that suffer themselves thus to be abused?
A42781	I said I will look to my ways, and what endeavours could be more severe, than to keep himself as with Bit and Bridle?
A42781	I see sin is a strong in me as ever?
A42781	If Art can do all this, how much more may we suppose can Satan do?
A42781	If Men give way to this, what reason can be imagined to stand before them?
A42781	If a Man sets his Face toward Heaven, thus he endeavours to scare him off; Is not( saith he) the way of Religion a dull, melancholy way?
A42781	If all these particulars be weighed, what presumptuous act can be propounded by Satan which Pride may not lead to?
A42781	If any put that Question to him, which the Jews did to Christ; By what Authority dost thou these things?
A42781	If any question, how can these things be?
A42781	If any yet further enquire, how he can do these things?
A42781	If but few are saved, a thousand to one thou art none of them?
A42781	If it be demanded, How and by what Arts he renders the Means so plausible?
A42781	If it be questioned, What Satan''s Authority is?
A42781	If it was so great a mischief to Eve in Innocency( as hath been said) to delay her peremptory denial, of how much greater hazard is it to us?
A42781	If not, where is thy Grace?
A42781	If the Shallow Brooks be too strong for us, what shall we do in the swellings of Jordan?
A42781	If these Priviledges and Mercies will not discourage Satan, what will?
A42781	If thou beest indeed such as he testifyed, give some proof of it?
A42781	If we look into our selves we find it true, to our no small trouble and hazard: Doth he at any time easily desist, when we give him a Repulse?
A42781	If we slacken our Care never so little they recoyle, and tend to their old Byas; and how easie is it for him to take off our hand?
A42781	In Popery nothing hath been more ordinary; who knows not the Story of the Holy Maid of Kent, and the Boy of Bilson?
A42781	In other places of the World, how long such things continued, who can tell, especially seeing they were found at Carolina not so very long since?
A42781	In the Apostles times, how quickly had the Devil broached false Doctrine?
A42781	Is it good unto thee that thou shouldest oppress?
A42781	Is it not Satan?
A42781	Is it not because there is not a God in Israel, that ye go to enquire of Baalzebub?
A42781	Is it possible it should be Washed and Sanctified, when it produceth such filthy cursed thoughts?
A42781	Is not here the Voice of a despairing Man?
A42781	Is not this Scripture?
A42781	Is not this thy fear, thy Confidence, thy Hope, and the uprightness of thy ways?
A42781	Is not thy Heart hardned to everlasting destruction?
A42781	Is there any sorrow like to my sorrow?
A42781	Is there knowledg in the most High?
A42781	It is not a toile?
A42781	Know ye not your own selves, how that Jesus Christ is in you, except ye be Reproabates?
A42781	Let it( I say) be left to the consideration of Men, how it should be, without some such extraordinary Cause as hath been mentioned?
A42781	Lord, why castest thou off my Soul, why hidest thou thy Face from me?
A42781	Many such fits David had, and in them, complained at this rate, Why hast thou forsaken me?
A42781	My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me?
A42781	Nay how impossible is it, to make that expression of the Apostle,[ he was tempted in all points like as we are,] to agree to an imaginary Temptation?
A42781	Now, albeit there are arguments at hand, and serious considerations to deter us from practice, yet how are all laid aside by a quick resolve?
A42781	O Fiatres adjuvate me, nepeream, nonne vid ● tis Daemonum agmina, qui me debellare,& ad Tartara ducere festinaut, quid hic astas cruenta bestia?
A42781	Of the same extract is that old song of the Papists, Where was your Religion before Luther?
A42781	Or the Maximum quod sic; the highest degree of sin, consistant with true Grace?
A42781	Or, If I have, what is that to you?
A42781	Or, what will become of me?
A42781	Quis est ille Deus, ut serviam illi?
A42781	Satan goes on: What greater evidence can there be of an hardned Heart, than Impenitency?
A42781	Secondly, But in things doubtful, where there is not a clear certainly, what is Truth?
A42781	Shall we Sin, that Grace may abound?
