James4:8

Verſe 8. Draw night to God] viz. In duty, and he[illegible: 1 letter]'l draw nigh to you in mercy. Sanctifie him, Levit. 10.3. and he will ſatisfie you, Pſal. 91.16. The very Turks are remorſeleſſe to thoſe that bear up: but they receive humiliation with much ſweetneſſe.

Cleanſe your hands] For elſe there's no coming near God, Joſh, 24.19.

Ye double-minded] Ye that have your hearts divided betwixt two, and as it were cloven aſunder: Out with the corruption that cleaveth to your hearts: and then there will be a conſtancy and an evenneſſe in your mouths and manners.
