heavenly_a spirit_n we_o must_v remember_v christ_n therefore_o as_o nehemiah_n desire_v god_n to_o remember_v he_o by_o do_v good_a or_o as_o we_o remember_v our_o creator_n by_o a_o true_a

all_o the_o world_n ii_o it_o be_v further_a manifest_a that_o we_o be_v hereby_o confirm_v in_o the_o state_n of_o pardon_n and_o forgiveness_n because_o we_o do_v here_o put_v forth_o the_o most_o solemn_a act_n of_o charity_n and_o forgiveness_n to_o all_o our_o enemy_n for_o it_o be_v a_o feast_n of_o love_n as_o you_o shall_v see_v afterward_o and_o this_o be_v the_o very_a condition_n upon_o which_o our_o forgiveness_n depend_v that_o we_o forgive_v other_o 15._o matt._n 6.14_o 15._o and_o therefore_o when_o we_o here_o pray_v for_o all_o man_n and_o put_v away_o all_o enmity_n

pure_a hand_n without_o wrath_n and_o i_o likewise_o wish_v the_o doctrine_n of_o love_n be_v most_o frequent_o and_o severe_o press_v and_o practise_v but_o yet_o there_o be_v no_o time_n when_o we_o

forgiveness_n but_o notwithstanding_o i_o consider_v with_o myself_o that_o this_o duty_n of_o pardon_v other_o be_v not_o so_o peculiar_a to_o this_o sacrament_n but_o that_o it_o may_v and_o must_v be_v do_v as_o i_o say_v at_o all_o other_o time_n and_o for_o that_o cause_n i_o shall_v pass_v it_o by_o and_o proceed_v to_o that_o which_o i_o will_v have_v most_o of_o all_o observe_v for_o the_o
