into_o his_o own_o bosom_n our_o lesson_n by_o the_o way_n be_v that_o when_o we_o have_v pour_v out_o our_o spirit_n before_o god_n crave_v any_o thing_n at_o his_o hand_n providence_n we_o must_v rest_v in_o god_n providence_n we_o must_v so_o rest_v in_o his_o providence_n that_o we_o do_v nevertheless_o use_v the_o ordinary_a mean_a &_o not_o lie_v still_o presumptuous_o tempt_v the_o lord_n
