many_o a_o man_n injure_v another_o in_o sudden_a heat_n and_o passion_n and_o in_o cool_a blood_n repent_v of_o it_o though_o he_o can_v prevail_v with_o himself_o to_o ask_v forgiveness_n and_o sometime_o a_o man_n injure_v another_o in_o retaliate_v something_o that_o he_o take_v amiss_o from_o he_o though_o perhaps_o far_o otherwise_o intend_v and_o it_o may_v be_v false_a report_n may_v have_v make_v the_o difference_n but_o now_o this_o way_n of_o reconciliation_n present_o set_v all_o right_a again_o it_o create_v a_o right_a understanding_n between_o party_n and_o party_n it_o nip_v quarrel_n in_o the_o very_a bud_n and_o leave_v no_o room_n for_o further_a malice_n and_o ill_a will._n and_o what_o a_o holy_a triumph_n will_v there_o then_o be_v in_o the_o forgive_a soul_n thus_o to_o have_v soften_v his_o enemy_n and_o overcome_v evil_a with_o good_a and_o such_o happy_a effect_n of_o forgiveness_n of_o injury_n as_o these_o methinks_v shall_v engage_v every_o consider_a man_n to_o put_v it_o in_o practice_n be_v this_o all_o but_o when_o beside_o all_o this_o so_o great_a a_o mercy_n as_o the_o perfect_a recovery_n of_o the_o favour_n of_o god_n the_o

must_v think_v himself_o as_o much_o oblige_v to_o forgive_v injury_n as_o to_o make_v himself_o eternal_o happy_a if_o he_o can_v and_o that_o this_o exceed_o great_a reward_n shall_v attend_v the_o

be_v say_v that_o we_o have_v upon_o all_o account_n great_a obligation_n to_o imitate_v the_o compassionate_a example_n of_o our_o merciful_a god_n so_o in_o the_o second_o place_n our_o baseness_n will_v be_v very_o great_a if_o we_o do_v not_o and_o that_o both_o with_o respect_n to_o god_n and_o man._n with_o respect_n to_o god_n not_o to_o forgive_v a_o petty_a injury_n from_o our_o

impression_n upon_o our_o spirit_n will_v leave_v so_o charm_v a_o idea_n of_o forgiveness_n upon_o our_o soul_n as_o will_v incline_v we_o to_o a_o suitable_a practice_n upon_o all_o occasion_n especial_o since_o we_o know_v from_o god_n great_a compassion_n towards_o we_o how_o please_v to_o he_o compassion_n be_v in_o other_o but_o notwithstanding_o god_n unspeakable_a kindness_n to_o we_o to_o cherish_v a_o temper_n of_o mind_n which_o we_o can_v but_o be_v sensible_a he_o infinite_o hate_v and_o endeavour_v to_o make_v those_o miserable_a as_o far_o as_o our_o malice_n will_v reach_v to_o who_o god_n have_v forgive_v as_o much_o as_o he_o forgive_v we_o and_o for_o who_o redemption_n christ_n die_v and_o for_o who_o be_v reserve_v crown_n of_o glory_n in_o heaven_n through_o the_o

sense_n of_o god_n compassion_n show_v to_o we_o that_o be_v possible_a well_o may_v our_o lord_n say_v to_o such_o man_n with_o a_o little_a variation_n as_o the_o king_n in_o the_o parable_n say_v to_o that_o cruel_a servant_n of_o he_o o_o thou_o wicked_a servant_n i_o forgive_v thou_o all_o that_o debt_n and_o that_o though_o thou_o do_v not_o desire_v it_o of_o i_o shall_v not_o thou_o also_o have_v have_v compassion_n on_o thy_o fellow-servant_n even_o as_o i_o have_v pity_n on_o thou_o obligation_n sufficient_a there_o be_v no_o doubt_n and_o that_o his_o ingratitude_n and_o
