have_v do_v and_o grant_v he_o repentance_n for_o it_o and_o to_o have_v mercy_n on_o his_o soul_n but_o though_o i_o die_v i_o be_o confident_a that_o he_o will_v clear_v my_o innocency_n but_o i_o find_v that_o i_o be_v so_o little_o believe_v that_o people_n think_v i_o will_v say_v any_o thing_n to_o save_v my_o life_n and_o now_o i_o desire_v you_o all_o to_o join_v with_o i_o in_o prayer_n to_o almighty_a god_n to_o forgive_v i_o my_o sin_n to_o have_v mercy_n upon_o i_o and_o to_o save_v my_o soul_n so_o he_o kneel_v down_o to_o prayer_n and_o pray_v very_o affectionate_o humble_o

not_o know_v any_o thing_n of_o the_o difference_n and_o yet_o may_v seem_v concern_v in_o it_o that_o he_o will_v put_v off_o the_o meeting_n of_o parson_n for_o that_o day_n at_o least_o and_o
