sin_n you_o remit_v they_o be_v remit_v and_o whosesoever_o sin_n you_o retain_v they_o be_v retain_v from_o the_o confession_n and_o absolution_n pass_v we_o to_o the_o lord_n prayer_n according_a

of_o sin_n the_o 51_o psalm_n will_v fit_v we_o as_o contain_v both_o a_o ingenuous_a acknowledgement_n of_o it_o and_o a_o earnest_a prayer_n for_o the_o pardon_n of_o it_o if_o we_o find_v in_o

that_o be_v due_a from_o we_o to_o other_o superior_n to_o which_o i_o tell_v you_o in_o my_o entrance_n upon_o this_o commandment_n that_o the_o precept_n be_v to_o be_v think_v to_o extend_v where_o first_o i_o shall_v inquire_v what_o honour_n be_v due_a from_o we_o to_o the_o age_a as_o because_o by_o a_o general_a consent_n they_o have_v acquire_v to_o themselves_o the_o name_n of_o father_n

the_o honour_n of_o its_o grey_a hair_n it_o do_v also_o connote_v a_o long_a continuance_n in_o piety_n which_o be_v of_o all_o other_o thing_n the_o just_a ground_n of_o honour_n but_o because_o

therefore_o it_o may_v not_o be_v amiss_o to_o inquire_v after_o such_o ground_n as_o be_v separate_v from_o the_o way_n of_o righteousness_n or_o at_o least_o as_o do_v not_o necessary_o involve_v
