amend_v and_o lead_v a_o new_a life_n four_o of_o examination_n before_o thou_o confess_v thy_o sin_n unto_o god_n thou_o must_v take_v heed_n to_o examine_v thyself_o that_o thereby_o thou_o may_v know_v they_o both_o in_o greatness_n and_o danger_n for_o until_o thou_o know_v thy_o sin_n that_o thy_o conscience_n may_v be_v convict_v by_o they_o thou_o can_v never_o humble_o &_o hearty_o confess_v they_o for_o let_v any_o repentant_a sinner_n ask_v his_o conscience_n what_o be_v the_o first_o cause_n of_o his_o conversion_n and_o sure_o he_o will_v say_v that_o when_o he_o begin_v to_o repent_v he_o do_v first_o search_v himself_o and_o find_v his_o way_n dangerous_a and_o his_o cause_n fearful_a do_v thereupon_o resolve_v to_o take_v a_o new_a course_n it_o be_v the_o begin_n of_o all_o grace_n to_o search_v try_v and_o examine_v thyself_o it_o be_v also_o a_o mean_n to_o prevent_v god_n judgement_n for_o if_o thou_o do_v not_o search_v thyself_o than_o god_n will_v search_v thou_o with_o his_o fiery_a cross_n and_o terror_n of_o his_o punishment_n but_o if_o thou_o true_o examine_v thyself_o first_o to_o be_v guilty_a of_o adam_n sin_n second_o prone_a by_o nature_n to_o all_o evil_a three_o subject_a to_o the_o curse_n of_o god_n wrath_n thus_o in_o the_o guiltiness_n of_o adam_n sin_n sin_n have_v his_o beginning_n in_o the_o original_n his_o continuance_n and_o in_o actual_a his_o full_a perfection_n so_o answerable_a thereunto_o be_v the_o wrath_n of_o god_n it_o begin_v by_o leave_v thou_o by_o nature_n unto_o the_o slavery_n of_o satan_n it_o be_v continue_v by_o death_n and_o accomplish_v by_o damnation_n now_o these_o three_o rule_n i_o leave_v to_o thy_o careful_a consideration_n assure_v thou_o from_o god_n thou_o can_v never_o be_v save_v unless_o thou_o repent_v nor_o never_o repent_v except_o thou_o do_v search_v try_v and_o examine_v thyself_o thus_o if_o thou_o will_v repent_v true_o thou_o must_v search_v and_o look_v into_o thyself_o to_o see_v in_o what_o a_o miserable_a case_n thou_o be_v as_o i_o have_v say_v before_o and_o thou_o shall_v find_v that_o by_o nature_n thou_o be_v the_o child_n of_o wrath_n out_o of_o the_o favour_n of_o god_n not_o only_o wretched_a and_o accurse_a by_o the_o law_n a_o bondslave_n unto_o satan_n but_o final_o subject_a to_o death_n hell_n and_o damnation_n thus_o if_o thou_o will_v know_v if_o thou_o be_v in_o the_o right_a way_n of_o repentance_n or_o no_o thou_o shall_v find_v if_o thou_o consider_v in_o thyself_o whether_o thou_o have_v ever_o any_o need_n of_o god_n pardon_n for_o thy_o sin_n or_o of_o christ_n his_o blood_n to_o salve_v and_o cure_v thy_o soul_n or_o be_v thy_o heart_n ever_o wound_v or_o grieve_v for_o thy_o sin_n so_o that_o thy_o soul_n be_v even_o sick_a with_o the_o stink_n thereof_o or_o do_v thou_o ever_o hunger_n and_o thirst_n after_o god_n in_o christ_n and_o with_o sigh_n groan_n and_o tear_n beg_v for_o his_o mercy_n upon_o thy_o knee_n as_o for_o life_n and_o death_n if_o thou_o have_v not_o feel_v nor_o do_v these_o thing_n in_o some_o measure_n sure_o thy_o case_n be_v very_o fearful_a and_o dangerous_a y_z u_z be_v not_o yet_o in_o the_o way_n of_o repentance_n therefore_o as_o yet_o the_o mercy_n of_o god_n belong_v not_o unto_o thou_o five_o of_o confession_n saint_n chrysostome_n say_v that_o nothing_o please_v god_n more_o than_o confession_n if_o it_o be_v join_v with_o true_a contrition_n and_o that_o it_o be_v a_o part_n of_o humiliation_n ever_o join_v with_o true_a repentance_n because_o they_o can_v be_v true_o humble_a &_o repent_v who_o confess_v not_o their_o sin_n unto_o god_n neither_o will_v he_o give_v they_o pardon_v for_o god_n cover_v when_o man_n uncover_v and_o acknowledge_v he_o justify_v when_o man_n condemn_v themselves_o and_o fly_v unto_o he_o for_o mercy_n if_o any_o plead_v unto_o god_n non_fw-la est_fw-la factum_fw-la and_o deny_v his_o deed_n and_o debt_n of_o sin_n there_o be_v no_o reason_n why_o he_o shall_v have_v the_o acquittance_n of_o grace_n therefore_o say_v solomon_n 28._o he_o that_o hide_v his_o sin_n shall_v not_o prosper_v but_o he_o that_o confess_v they_o and_o forsake_v they_o shall_v have_v mercy_n if_o thou_o confess_v they_o effectual_o it_o will_v cause_v thou_o to_o weep_v like_o mary_n magdalen_n wrestle_n with_o god_n like_o jacob_n and_o pour_v forth_o flood_n of_o tear_n like_o ezechia_n thou_o must_v confess_v they_o in_o this_o or_o such_o like_a manner_n first_o y_z u_z must_v put_v up_o a_o indictment_n

as_o the_o prodigal_a child_n do_v who_o say_v father_n i_o have_v sin_v against_o heaven_n and_o before_o thou_o or_o the_o publican_n who_o stand_v a_o far_o off_o will_v not_o so_o much_o as_o

in_o so_o do_v say_v augustine_n when_o thou_o accuse_v thyself_o by_o confess_v thy_o sin_n unto_o god_n thou_o prevent_a thereby_o the_o devil_n of_o his_o purpose_n so_o that_o he_o can_v accuse_v
