what_o mind_n they_o shall_v come_v unto_o the_o meditation_n of_o the_o passion_n be_v first_o the_o contrition_n of_o the_o heart_n by_o the_o nature_n of_o repentance_n which_o for_o the_o most_o

in_o his_o whole_a life_n from_o all_o sin_n unto_o god_n which_o must_v be_v do_v so_o direct_o that_o he_o must_v hate_v and_o detest_v his_o former_a evil_a life_n purpose_v to_o become_v a_o new_a

two_o repentance_n 2._o repentance_n kind_n of_o repentance_n the_o one_o a_o true_a repentance_n unto_o life_n the_o other_o a_o false_a repentance_n unto_o death_n and_o example_n we_o may_v have_v by_o judas_n who_o be_v say_v to_o have_v repent_v false_a 1._o the_o false_a and_o which_o be_v more_o to_o have_v confess_v his_o fault_n &_o which_o be_v most_o of_o all_o to_o have_v make_v

his_o eye_n of_o the_o grief_n &_o tediousnese_n of_o pain_n of_o the_o horror_n of_o hell_n and_o fear_v of_o god_n invincible_a punishment_n which_o he_o know_v he_o must_v needs_o abide_v because_o

6._o heb._n 11._o 6._o thus_o many_o judasses_n and_o despair_a wretch_n will_v say_v when_o a_o minister_n or_o preacher_n go_v about_o to_o persuade_v they_o to_o amend_v their_o life_n and_o return_v unto_o god_n by_o repentance_n in_o show_v they_o that_o god_n be_v more_o merciful_a than_o man_n can_v be_v sinful_a if_o man_n will_v be_v sorrowful_a this_o or_o such_o like_a answer_n you_o say_v well_o indeed_o god_n be_v merciful_a but_o alas_o i_o be_o so_o unworthy_a of_o myself_o and_o find_v so_o many_o imperfection_n in_o i_o that_o i_o be_o not_o worthy_a of_o the_o mercy_n of_o god_n and_o therefore_o i_o can_v expect_v it_o oh_o mark_v i_o beseech_v you_o this_o common_a objection_n be_v altogether_o without_o faith_n and_o it_o rise_v not_o from_o humility_n but_o from_o the_o pride_n of_o the_o heart_n and_o thereby_o it_o make_v many_o careless_a man_n to_o distrust_v in_o god_n the_o reason_n be_v because_o they_o will_v not_o be_v behold_v unto_o god_n for_o his_o mercy_n but_o will_v rather_o seem_v to_o have_v god_n to_o be_v behold_v unto_o they_o for_o their_o worthiness_n but_o if_o they_o will_v have_v god_n to_o have_v the_o glory_n as_o most_o of_o right_n they_o shall_v they_o must_v not_o stand_v upon_o their_o own_o infirmity_n for_o the_o more_o unworthy_a they_o be_v in_o their_o own_o sight_n if_o they_o true_o repent_v and_o be_v hearty_o sorry_a for_o their_o sin_n with_o a_o full_a purpose_n to_o continue_v in_o newness_n of_o life_n the_o more_o worthy_a will_v they_o be_v in_o the_o sight_n of_o god_n &_o the_o more_o
