but_o when_o we_o can_v do_v more_o either_o by_o the_o help_n of_o book_n or_o our_o own_o invention_n we_o may_v act_v they_o over_o still_o more_o full_o in_o these_o or_o such_o like_a form_n of_o

still_o remain_v that_o must_v employ_v we_o always_o afterward_o and_o that_o be_v a_o careful_a performance_n of_o all_o those_o promise_n which_o we_o make_v to_o god_n in_o this_o holy_a ordinance_n in_o the_o sacrament_n as_o have_v be_v show_v we_o seek_v not_o only_o a_o pardon_n for_o what_o be_v past_a but_o also_o vow_v and_o promise_v amendment_n for_o the_o future_a and_o these_o promise_n must_v be_v make_v good_a afterward_o and_o it_o must_v be_v our_o care_n whilst_o we_o live_v to_o fulfil_v they_o this_o we_o be_v hig_o concern_v to_o do_v and_o it_o will_v great_o increase_v our_o gild_n and_o condemnation_n if_o we_o fall_v short_a of_o it_o for_o if_o we_o return_v to_o our_o former_a sin_n again_o after_o we_o have_v thus_o solemn_o vow_v to_o

with_o god_n and_o go_v about_o to_o delude_v his_o expectation_n have_v he_o be_v capable_a to_o be_v impose_v upon_o and_o believe_v as_o we_o will_v have_v have_v he_o which_o be_v as_o great_a a_o

the_o fault_n itself_o to_o answer_v for_o but_o also_o this_o perfidiousness_n and_o breach_n of_o vow_n which_o add_v a_o new_a one_o to_o it_o and_o make_v it_o great_a so_o that_o after_o every_o sacrament_n if_o we_o still_o continue_v impenitent_a our_o gild_n be_v aggravate_v and_o our_o soul_n more_o endanger_v and_o we_o be_v great_a sinner_n than_o we_o be_v before_o thus_o high_o be_v we_o concern_v to_o perform_v the_o promise_n which_o we_o make_v at_o the_o table_n of_o our_o lord_n and_o this_o we_o shall_v be_v very_o like_a to_o do_v if_o we_o think_v often_o of_o they_o every_o day_n for_o some_o time_n especial_o after_o we_o be_v go_v from_o it_o indeed_o if_o we_o forget_v all_o we_o do_v and_o all_o the_o vow_n we_o make_v there_o to_o almighty_a god_n we_o be_v like_a to_o be_v the_o same_o man_n still_o and_o must_v not_o expect_v that_o it_o shall_v amend_v we_o for_o the_o sacrament_n as_o i_o have_v show_v do_v not_o better_v we_o without_o our_o own_o

peace_n unto_o my_o poor_a heart_n and_o let_v i_o know_v and_o feel_v that_o thou_o forgive_v i_o send_v thy_o holy_a spirit_n to_o take_v possession_n of_o it_o to_o keep_v it_o true_a unto_o thyself_o that_o it_o may_v never_o more_o start_v back_o from_o thou_o thou_o have_v promise_v thy_o grace_n to_o those_o that_o ask_v it_o and_o endeavour_v in_o expectation_n of_o it_o o_o i_o desire_v it_o and_o will_v do_v what_o i_o can_v to_o be_v assist_v by_o it_o and_o therefore_o humble_o hope_v this_o promise_n shall_v be_v make_v good_a unto_o thy_o servant_n whatsoever_o thou_o

discharge_v the_o duty_n of_o this_o feast_n and_o excite_v and_o actuate_v in_o our_o own_o mind_n that_o faith_n and_o thankfulness_n and_o charity_n and_o resignation_n and_o repentance_n which_o be_v to_o render_v we_o fit_a and_o worthy_a of_o it_o if_o any_o be_v destitute_a of_o other_o help_n they_o may_v make_v use_n of_o these_o meditation_n and_o prayer_n to_o affect_v their_o own_o
