let_v my_o soul_n therefore_o ever_o magnify_v thy_o holy_a name_n because_o thou_o have_v ruise_v i_o out_o of_o the_o dust_n to_o stand_v before_o thou_o and_o have_v show_v i_o the_o light_n of_o thy_o countenance_n and_o let_v my_o eye_n see_v thy_o salvation_n to_o be_v a_o servant_n of_o servant_n be_v once_o a_o curse_n but_o to_o be_v a_o servant_n of_o one_o of_o thy_o servant_n be_v one_o of_o the_o high_a blessing_n thou_o thyself_o be_v lord_n of_o all_o deign_v to_o serve_v thy_o servant_n wash_v their_o foot_n and_o it_o be_v a_o office_n wherein_o thy_o bless_a angel_n do_v rejoice_v but_o howsoever_o it_o be_v a_o honourable_a call_n yet_o it_o be_v unto_o thou_o a_o service_n and_o not_o unto_o ease_n or_o pleasure_n those_o that_o be_v in_o prince_n court_n may_v go_v in_o soft_a raiment_n and_o live_v at_o their_o ease_n but_o not_o so_o they_o that_o serve_v in_o thy_o court_n o_o lord_n thyself_o do_v begin_v thy_o preach_n with_o a_o fast_o of_o forty_o day_n
