let vs while we haue the light beleue in the light and walke as the childrē of the lyghte that we bee not caste into the vtter derkenes where is wepyng and gnashing of teeth Let vs not abuse the goodnes of god whiche calleth vs mercifully to amendement and of his endlesse pitie promiseth vs forgeuenes of that whiche is past if with a whole mind and a true heart we returne vnto him for though our sinnes bered as scarlet they shal be as white as snowe and though they be lyke purple yet shall they be as white as woolle Turne you cleane sayeth the lord from all your wickednes and your synne shall not be your destruccion Cast away from you all your vngodlynes that ye haue doen make you new heartes and a newe spirite wherfore wil ye dye O ye house of Israel seing I haue no pleasure in the death of him that dieth saith the Lord God Turne you then and you shall lyue Although we haue sinned yet haue we an aduocate with the father Iesus Christ the righteous he it is that obteyneth grace for our sinnes for he was wounded for our offences and smitten for our wickednes let vs therfore returne vnto him who is the mercifull receiuer of all true penitent sinners assuryng our selfe that he is ready to receiue vs and most willing to pardon vs if we come to him with faithfull repentaunce yf we wyll submit our selues vnto hym and from henceforth walke in his wayes yf we will take his easy yoke and light burden vpon vs to folow him in lowlynesse pacience and charitie and bee ordred by
