to_o the_o king_n and_o we_o have_v one_o in_o the_o court_n to_o follow_v it_o we_o hope_v we_o shall_v not_o be_v forget_v especial_o if_o we_o have_v the_o prince_n the_o king_n elder_a son_n to_o

in_o repentance_n and_o faith_n therefore_o if_o we_o have_v do_v any_o thing_n all_o this_o while_n god_n will_v remember_v we_o if_o we_o have_v do_v nothing_o than_o god_n must_v needs_o forget_v to_o bless_v we_o for_o there_o be_v nothing_o do_v for_o which_o he_o may_v remember_v us._n thing_n this_o shall_v make_v we_o forward_o in_o prayer_n and_o in_o all_o good_a thing_n this_o shall_v make_v all_o man_n fervent_a in_o prayer_n &_o forward_o in_o all_o duty_n that_o so_o they_o may_v leave_v they_o as_o it_o be_v with_o god_n and_o they_o may_v be_v before_o he_o night_n and_o day_n for_o a_o remembrance_n of_o they_o and_o that_o as_o we_o have_v many_o sin_n for_o which_o he_o may_v remember_v to_o punish_v we_o so_o our_o repentance_n faith_n prayer_n service_n do_v to_o his_o majesty_n obedience_n to_o his_o word_n of_o conscience_n in_o all_o his_o commandment_n and_o that_o in_o secret_a and_o all_o the_o good_a that_o we_o have_v do_v to_o our_o brethren_n may_v also_o speak_v for_o we_o and_o put_v he_o in_o remembrance_n of_o we_o for_o our_o good_a that_o as_o it_o be_v write_v of_o nehemiah_n that_o worthy_a servant_n of_o god_n who_o often_o in_o the_o testimony_n of_o a_o good_a conscience_n pray_v 13.14_o nehem._n 13.14_o remember_v i_o o_o my_o god_n and_o wipe_v not_o out_o my_o kindness_n that_o i_o have_v show_v on_o the_o house_n of_o god_n and_o on_o the_o officer_n thereof_o 31._o verse_n 31._o and_o again_o remember_v i_o o_o my_o god_n in_o goodness_n so_o we_o may_v pray_v for_o ourselves_o and_o other_o in_o faith_n for_o we_o that_o god_n will_v remember_v we_o and_o they_o according_a to_o all_o the_o service_n we_o have_v do_v to_o he_o this_o i_o say_v shall_v make_v all_o forward_a and_o zealous_a in_o god_n service_n both_o as_o they_o be_v christian_n and_o in_o their_o several_a calling_n that_o there_o may_v be_v something_o for_o which_o they_o may_v pray_v themselves_o and_o other_o for_o they_o that_o god_n will_v remember_v they_o and_o whereas_o they_o pray_v for_o the_o king_n that_o god_n will_v remember_v all_o his_o prayer_n and_o service_n we_o see_v that_o we_o may_v not_o only_o pray_v to_o god_n that_o he_o will_v remember_v what_o we_o have_v do_v and_o that_o we_o now_o do_v and_o what_o we_o have_v do_v before_o the_o stay_n of_o this_o visitation_n and_o hope_v that_o he_o will_v remember_v all_o nay_o be_v assure_v of_o it_o none_o pray_v for_o they_o under_o the_o plague_n that_o god_n will_v remember_v their_o former_a service_n though_o now_o they_o can_v do_v none_o but_o pray_v also_o for_o all_o our_o brethren_n in_o all_o place_n that_o god_n will_v remember_v what_o they_o have_v pray_v and_o do_v and_o the_o fast_n that_o have_v be_v in_o all_o place_n and_o be_v still_o and_o that_o all_o our_o prayer_n together_o may_v still_o speak_v for_o us._n yea_o we_o may_v pray_v that_o god_n will_v hear_v they_o that_o be_v visit_v with_o his_o hand_n and_o not_o only_o that_o which_o they_o now_o pray_v but_o that_o that_o they_o have_v do_v before_o when_o they_o be_v in_o health_n and_o though_o they_o can_v do_v as_o they_o will_v nay_o it_o may_v be_v for_o pain_n speak_v one_o word_n as_o he_o require_v yet_o if_o they_o have_v do_v any_o thing_n in_o truth_n before_o that_o he_o will_v now_o in_o this_o time_n of_o their_o need_n remember_v that_o and_o they_o for_o it_o and_o so_o no_o doubt_n he_o will_n and_o this_o be_v a_o singular_a fruit_n of_o those_o that_o neglect_v not_o the_o time_n of_o prayer_n and_o of_o god_n service_n when_o they_o may_v that_o they_o shall_v be_v remember_v for_o it_o hereafter_o and_o for_o that_o which_o they_o have_v do_v before_o when_o for_o the_o time_n present_v they_o shall_v be_v able_a to_o do_v nothing_o as_o david_n when_o he_o be_v fight_n can_v not_o always_o pray_v as_o he_o will_v and_o as_o his_o need_n require_v but_o he_o desire_v they_o to_o pray_v that_o god_n will_v remember_v that_o which_o he_o have_v pray_v before_o when_o he_o be_v able_a to_o do_v it_o it_o follow_v and_o turn_v thy_o burn_a offering_n into_o ash_n verse_n the_o second_o part_n of_o this_o verse_n this_o be_v the_o second_o part_n of_o the_o verse_n where_o they_o pray_v that_o god_n will_v turn_v his_o burn_a offering_n into_o ash_n that_o be_v that_o god_n will_v some_o way_n declare_v that_o he_o have_v hear_v his_o prayer_n and_o receive_v his_o service_n for_o where_o he_o speak_v of_o sacrifice_n it_o be_v according_a to_o the_o manner_n of_o god_n service_n in_o
