that_o be_v now_o with_o the_o lord_n our_o affliction_n sanctify_v be_v good_a cordial_n to_o the_o soul_n and_o therefore_o it_o be_v no_o marvel_n that_o david_n say_v it_o be_v good_a for_o i_o that_o i_o have_v be_v afflict_v and_o as_o one_o observe_v and_o say_v well_o a_o prison_n be_v the_o place_n where_o want_v other_o book_n a_o man_n may_v there_o best_a study_n the_o book_n of_o the_o knowledge_n of_o himself_o be_v separate_v from_o all_o business_n but_o pray_v and_o praise_v the_o lord_n god_n in_o christ_n by_o the_o spirit_n assistance_n and_o since_o i_o have_v by_o the_o help_n of_o the_o lord_n look_v in_o some_o measure_n into_o my_o heart_n i_o can_v not_o have_v think_v there_o have_v be_v so_o much_o ignorance_n and_o impatience_n pride_n inordinate_a

great_a mercy_n have_v keep_v i_o by_o his_o mighty_a power_n and_o restrain_v grace_n from_o those_o jayl-bird_n sin_n as_o swear_v drunkenness_n lie_v uncleanness_n and_o hate_v of_o his_o people_n yet_o i_o find_v a_o mass_n of_o corruption_n in_o i_o and_o a_o multitude_n of_o transgression_n so_o that_o my_o sin_n be_v as_o the_o hair_n of_o my_o head_n which_o can_v be_v number_v for_o the_o

i_o see_v the_o height_n of_o pride_n in_o my_o own_o spirit_n and_o want_v of_o condescension_n when_o i_o be_v in_o prosperity_n and_o my_o unfruitfulness_n under_o the_o mean_n of_o grace_n and_o little_a good_a i_o do_v when_o i_o have_v a_o opportunity_n thereunto_o and_o therefore_o i_o adore_v and_o acknowledge_v the_o justice_n of_o god_n that_o he_o have_v most_o righteous_o deprive_v i_o of_o my_o liberty_n and_o estate_n true_o now_o i_o be_o thereby_o bring_v near_o to_o christ_n whereby_o i_o find_v through_o grace_n that_o christ_n be_v become_v very_o precious_a to_o i_o and_o more_o to_o be_v desire_v than_o gold_n yea_o 2.7_o 1_o pet_n 2.7_o than_o fine_a gold_n and_o sweet_a than_o the_o honey_n or_o the_o honeycomb_n and_o this_o i_o can_v say_v through_o mercy_n i_o do_v desire_n to_o love_v the_o good_a word_n of_o the_o lord_n before_o my_o appoint_a food_n i_o have_v beg_v of_o the_o lord_n that_o he_o will_v enable_v i_o more_o and_o more_o that_o i_o
