be_v it_o not_o among_o my_o praise_n that_o i_o be_o able_a to_o do_v exceed_v abundant_o above_o all_o that_o my_o child_n can_v ask_v or_o think_v of_o i_o know_v thou_o not_o that_o as_o the_o

above_o thou_o who_o be_v nothing_o in_o comparison_n of_o my_o work_n and_o if_o it_o be_v above_o thou_o how_o much_o more_o above_o all_o that_o thou_o can_v do_v why_o they_o will_v thou_o match_v thy_o sin_n with_o my_o mercy_n if_o require_v such_o mercy_n in_o my_o child_n that_o i_o will_v have_v one_o of_o they_o to_o forgive_v another_o not_o only_o seven_o time_n but_o seventy_o time_n seven_o time_n what_o pity_n and_o compassion_n and_o readiness_n to_o forgive_v be_v in_o myself_o therefore_o my_o belove_a despair_v not_o for_o the_o multitude_n of_o thy_o sin_n but_o be_v

or_o be_v thou_o content_a to_o seek_v it_o in_o i_o if_o in_o thyself_o thou_o seek_v it_o remember_v what_o thou_o be_v do_v will_v thou_o have_v the_o lord_n bind_v and_o oblige_v to_o thou_o will_v thou_o be_v thy_o own_o saviour_n or_o shall_v it_o be_v say_v his_o mercy_n save_v thou_o not_o if_o no_o misery_n be_v in_o thou_o whereupon_o shall_v his_o mercy_n be_v manifest_v and_o if_o thy_o disposition_n in_o the_o earth_n be_v such_o as_o it_o shall_v be_v than_o what_o remain_v but_o that_o the_o prais_fw-fr of_o his_o mercy_n shall_v fall_v to_o the_o ground_n turn_v thou_o therefore_o to_o i_o and_o seek_v thy_o life_n in_o i_o if_o thou_o will_v know_v what_o be_v thou_o thou_o be_v a_o sinner_n let_v my_o praise_n be_v reserve_v to_o myself_o i_o be_o thy_o saviour_n

have_v my_o blood_n to_o be_v shed_v in_o vain_a if_o his_o justice_n terrify_v thou_o remember_v his_o justice_n be_v satisfy_v in_o i_o and_o that_o he_o pronounce_v this_o sentence_n himself_o this_o be_v my_o well-beloved_n son_n in_o who_o i_o be_o well_o please_v i_o come_v into_o the_o world_n not_o to_o call_v the_o righteous_a but_o sinner_n to_o repentance_n tarry_v not_o from_o i_o

the_o lord_n be_v not_o i_o pray_v thou_o injurious_a to_o the_o work_n of_o my_o grace_n in_o thou_o complain_v not_o so_o of_o thy_o corruption_n but_o that_o thou_o may_v give_v unto_o i_o my_o

how_o often_o have_v thou_o be_v make_v a_o prey_n to_o thy_o enemy_n remember_v thou_o not_o that_o the_o tempter_n have_v assault_v thou_o but_o i_o have_v withdraw_v the_o occasion_n of_o sin_n
