spirit_n i_o bemoan_v she_o and_o wish_v all_o that_o know_v she_o with_o i_o to_o bewail_v she_o and_o to_o set_v to_o their_o help_a hand_n and_o heart_n and_o to_o implore_v some_o mean_n from_o the_o great_a and_o good_a god_n of_o heaven_n who_o be_v both_o able_a and_o willing_a to_o help_v for_o her_o recovery_n and_o establishment_n in_o her_o perfection_n which_o be_v i_o conceive_v

and_o by_o second_o i_o will_v humble_o desire_v that_o the_o people_n of_o god_n here_o confer_v with_o their_o friend_n of_o new_a england_n will_v join_v together_o and_o make_v it_o their_o joint_a desire_n to_o the_o supreme_a authority_n that_o they_o will_v unite_v the_o english_a plantation_n which_o be_v on_o the_o continent_n from_o cape_n florida_n in_o the_o south_n to_o cape_n
