admirable_a face_n of_o thou_o thy_o warth_fw-mi o_o lord_n be_v only_o upon_o such_o as_o glory_v in_o their_o sin_n and_o wax_v stubborn_a in_o their_o iniquity_n but_o i_o thy_o servant_n do_v humble_a myself_o before_o thou_o and_o do_v acknowledge_v that_o be_v a_o unworthy_a sinner_n as_o i_o be_o i_o dare_v not_o appear_v in_o thy_o presence_n but_o that_o thy_o clemency_n bring_v i_o before_o thou_o thou_o shall_v not_o then_o reject_v i_o for_o thou_o must_v forthwith_o then_o reject_v thy_o mercy_n whereunto_o i_o be_o so_o strict_o bind_v and_o tie_v that_o as_o it_o be_v not_o to_o be_v separate_v from_o thou_o even_o so_o can_v it_o not_o be_v seavered_a from_o my_o penitence_n 15._o if_o it_o please_v thou_o than_o thou_o shall_v dwell_v with_o i_o and_o see_v it_o have_v please_v thou_o to_o advouch_v i_o for_o thy_o servant_n and_o to_o put_v i_o to_o this_o combat_n thou_o shall_v not_o forsake_v i_o therein_o otherwise_o my_o destruction_n will_v turn_v to_o thy_o

in_o the_o same_o manner_n as_o will_v my_o body_n by_o the_o loss_n of_o my_o soul_n for_o thou_o o_o lord_n be_v more_o the_o soul_n of_o my_o soul_n than_o my_o soul_n be_v the_o life_n of_o my_o

thou_o thereby_o do_v honour_n unto_o i_o thy_o poor_a servant_n wherefore_o shall_v thou_o leave_v the_o brightness_n of_o the_o heaven_n and_o the_o glister_n of_o the_o star_n to_o come_v down_o here_o on_o earth_n to_o so_o dishonourable_a a_o subject_n but_o as_o i_o think_v thou_o do_v it_o to_o give_v warning_n to_o thy_o angel_n not_o to_o grow_v proud_a in_o their_o magnificence_n in_o
