of_o man_n we_o desire_v to_o render_v humble_a and_o hearty_a praise_n to_o thy_o divine_a majesty_n yea_o bless_a and_o for_o ever_o praise_v be_v thy_o name_n oh_o god_n that_o thou_o have_v not_o

of_o all_o grace_n give_v we_o not_o up_o to_o such_o a_o reprobate_a mind_n and_o fear_a conscience_n but_o together_o with_o enlighten_v mind_n give_v we_o such_o soft_a and_o tender_a heart_n

of_o our_o sin_n a_o freedom_n from_o thy_o wrath_n and_o from_o everlasting_a damnation_n and_o we_o do_v also_o beseech_v thou_o by_o he_o to_o deliver_v we_o from_o the_o evil_n of_o this_o
