we_o will_v indeed_o approve_v our_o humility_n to_o god_n 6._o for_o sure_o you_o will_v not_o think_v that_o child_n have_v due_a humility_n to_o his_o parent_n or_o that_o servant_n to_o his_o

he_o carry_v to_o we_o the_o bowel_n and_o affection_n of_o the_o tender_a father_n now_o when_o a_o father_n see_v his_o child_n stubborn_a and_o rebellious_a and_o run_v on_o in_o a_o course_n

nay_o indeed_o he_o can_v not_o be_v say_v to_o have_v true_a kindness_n to_o he_o if_o he_o shall_v not_o and_o thus_o it_o be_v with_o god_n when_o he_o see_v we_o run_v on_o in_o sin_n either_o

though_o never_o so_o long_o since_o past_a for_o such_o we_o shall_v never_o think_v sufficient_o confess_v and_o bewail_v and_o this_o bewail_v must_v always_o go_v along_o with_o confession_n we_o

or_o body_n for_o our_o soul_n we_o must_v first_o beg_v pardon_n of_o sin_n and_o soul_n that_o for_o the_o sake_n of_o jesus_n christ_n who_o shed_v his_o blood_n to_o obtain_v it_o then_o we_o

therefore_o observe_v what_o thy_o want_n be_v and_o if_o thou_o be_v proud_a be_v most_o instant_a in_o pray_v for_o humility_n if_o lustful_a for_o chastity_n and_o so_o for_o all_o other_o grace_n according_a as_o thou_o find_v thy_o need_n and_o in_o all_o these_o thing_n that_o concern_v thy_o soul_n be_v very_o earnest_a and_o importunate_a take_v no_o denial_n from_o god_n nor_o give_v

we_o be_v especial_o to_o pray_v against_o most_o earnest_o beg_v of_o god_n that_o he_o will_v by_o the_o power_n of_o his_o grace_n preserve_v we_o from_o fall_v into_o sin_n and_o whatever_o sin_n sin_n they_o be_v to_o which_o thou_o know_v thyself_o most_o incline_v there_o be_v particular_o earnest_a with_o god_n to_o preserve_v thou_o from_o they_o this_o be_v to_o be_v do_v daily_o but_o
