to_o let_v you_o understand_v that_o the_o chief_a cause_n as_o near_o as_o i_o can_v conjecture_v be_v the_o wonderful_a providence_n of_o almighty_a god_n who_o suffer_v i_o to_o fall_v into_o the_o profound_a depth_n of_o all_o iniquity_n that_o the_o bottomless_a depth_n of_o my_o extreme_a misery_n may_v call_v and_o cry_v for_o succour_n and_o help_v unto_o the_o bottomless_a depth_n of_o god_n infinite_a mercy_n and_o that_o out_o of_o that_o huge_a heap_n and_o mass_n of_o sin_n shame_n and_o confusion_n wherein_o most_o miserable_o i_o have_v enwrap_v myself_o he_o may_v pick_v

to_o be_v commit_v but_o that_o he_o work_v out_o some_o great_a goodness_n of_o the_o same_o either_o in_o show_v his_o just_a judgement_n and_o justice_n in_o the_o punish_n of_o sin_n or_o his_o exceed_a mercy_n and_o clemency_n in_o the_o pardon_v of_o sin_n or_o his_o omnipotent_a power_n that_o he_o alone_o out_o of_o such_o evil_a cause_n be_v able_a to_o produce_v these_o notable_a and_o
