will_v endeavour_v my_o best_a now_o to_o help_v you_o by_o god_n grace_n but_o first_o because_o we_o can_v well_o tell_v what_o repentance_n be_v through_o ignorance_n and_o for_o lack_v of_o knowledge_n and_o false_a teach_n i_o will_v to_o begin_v withal_o show_v what_o repentance_n be_v repentance_n be_v no_o english_a word_n but_o we_o borrow_v it_o of_o the_o latinist_n resipiscentia_fw-la to_o who_o it_o be_v a_o after_o think_v in_o english_a in_o greek_a a_o be_v wise_a afterwards_o in_o hebrew_n {non-roman}_o a_o conversion_n or_o turn_n the_o which_o conversion_n or_o turn_n can_v be_v true_a and_o hearty_a {non-roman}_o unto_o god_n especial_o without_o some_o good_a hope_n or_o trust_v of_o pardon_n for_o that_o which_o be_v already_o do_v and_o past_a be_v therefore_o after_o hearty_a sorrow_n a_o earnest_a purpose_n to_o amend_v and_o to_o turn_v to_o god_n with_o a_o trust_n of_o pardon_n this_o definition_n may_v be_v divide_v into_o three_o part_n 1._o first_o a_o sorrow_n for_o our_o sin_n 2._o second_o a_o trust_n of_o pardon_n which_o otherwise_o may_v be_v call_v a_o persuasion_n of_o god_n mercy_n by_o the_o merit_n of_o christ_n for_o the_o forgiveness_n of_o our_o sin_n 3._o and_o three_o a_o purpose_n to_o amend_v or_o a_o conversion_n to_o a_o new_a life_n the_o which_o three_o or_o last_o part_n can_v be_v call_v so_o proper_o a_o part_n as_o a_o effect_n of_o that_o repentance_n we_o now_o speak_v of_o as_o towards_o the_o end_n you_o shall_v see_v by_o god_n grace_n but_o yet_o lest_o such_o as_o seek_v for_o occasion_n to_o speak_v evil_a shall_v have_v any_o occasion_n if_o they_o tarry_v not_o out_o the_o end_n of_o this_o sermon_n i_o therefore_o divide_v repentance_n into_o the_o three_o foresay_a part_n 1._o of_o sorrow_v for_o our_o sin_n 2._o of_o good_a hope_n or_o trust_v of_o pardon_n 3._o of_o a_o new_a life_n thus_o you_o may_v see_v what_o the_o thing_n be_v a_o sorrow_n for_o sin_n a_o purpose_n to_o amend_v with_o a_o good_a hope_n or_o trust_v of_o pardon_n this_o penance_n not_o only_o differ_v from_o that_o which_o man_n common_o take_v to_o be_v penance_n in_o

the_o more_o learned_a have_v declare_v to_o consist_v of_o three_o part_n namely_o contrition_n confession_n and_o satisfaction_n contrition_n they_o call_v a_o just_a and_o a_o full_a sorrow_n for_o their_o sin_n for_o this_o word_n just_a and_o full_a be_v one_o of_o the_o difference_n between_o contrition_n and_o attrition_n confession_n they_o call_v a_o number_n of_o all_o their_o sin_n in_o

how_o it_o agree_v with_o god_n word_n how_o it_o be_v to_o be_v allow_v teach_v preach_v write_v let_v we_o a_o little_a consider_v if_o a_o man_n repent_v not_o until_o he_o have_v a_o just_a and_o
