and_o favourable_a assistance_n of_o the_o lord_n and_o then_o he_o resolve_v which_o lead_v to_o the_o other_o part_n of_o the_o text._n in_o the_o night_n time_n to_o meditate_v on_o that_o

return_v daily_o upon_o we_o and_o require_v new_a supply_n of_o mercy_n and_o prayer_n if_o we_o know_v how_o to_o use_v it_o right_n be_v the_o way_n to_o obtain_v they_o all_o to_o the_o god_n of_o
