of the Lord being your Strength. Be carefull to keep your Covenant, and to perform your Vows. Seek after sensible comfort in God, and yet live by Faith, when you want it. Be Humble, and yet not sinfully dejected; Be Cheerfull, without Carnal Levitie; Be Spiritual and Heavenly in your Conversation, and yet not Sloathfull in your Lawfull Calling; Beware of giving Offence to any. Be not Turbulent, Factious, or Busie-bodies; But be Peaceable, Quiet and Loving to all Men; Conquering the Reproaches of the World by unaffected Piety, ill Nature by good Offices, and Injuries by your readiness to forgive; So that you may Adorn the Doctrine of GOD your Saviour, by Living Soberly, Righteously, and Godly in this present World, Titus 2. 12.
