be_v more_o weak_a &_o full_a of_o wrinkle_n in_o her_o forehead_n than_o the_o have_v have_v before_o time_n because_o she_o be_v not_o only_o grieve_v with_o infirmity_n of_o her_o age_n but_o be_v

let_v we_o therefore_o crave_v with_o most_o servant_n prayer_n that_o god_n will_v not_o cast_v away_o the_o remnant_n of_o the_o church_n now_o in_o her_o old_a age_n because_o of_o her_o dote_n and_o other_o blemish_n but_o see_v he_o know_v that_o old_a age_n have_v need_v to_o have_v quietness_n and_o rest_n that_o he_o will_v vouchsafe_v merciful_o to_o succour_v help_n and_o comfort_v his_o church_n now_o in_o extreme_a old_a age_n as_o he_o have_v promise_v so_o to_o do_v isay_n 46._o verse_n 3_o and_o 4_o hear_v you_o i_o house_n of_o jacob_n and_o all_o that_o remain_v of_o
