of_o mercy_n by_o the_o great_a physician_n of_o my_o soul_n that_o they_o may_v purge_v out_o all_o those_o sinful_a distemper_n and_o evil_a habit_n that_o prosperity_n and_o ease_n have_v cause_v i_o to_o contract_n that_o so_o be_v purge_v from_o my_o sin_n and_o refine_v in_o the_o furnace_n of_o affliction_n i_o may_v come_v forth_o like_o gold_n and_o see_v my_o foolish_a and_o deceitful_a heart_n be_v so_o ready_a to_o run_v after_o lie_v vanity_n let_v thy_o chastisement_n be_v as_o so_o many_o thorn_n to_o hedge_v up_o my_o way_n that_o so_o be_v stop_v from_o run_v into_o the_o path_n of_o the_o destroyer_n my_o soul_n may_v be_v like_o a_o garden_n enclose_v a_o spring_n shut_v up_o and_o a_o fountain_n seal_v and_o bless_a lord_n grant_v also_o that_o by_o my_o patient_a

in_o that_o most_o excellent_a form_n of_o prayer_n he_o have_v teach_v we_o have_v make_v this_o one_o principal_a petition_n in_o it_o thy_o will_v be_v do_v on_o earth_n as_o it_o be_v in_o heaven_n and_o though_o i_o hope_v we_o all_o make_v use_v of_o this_o prayer_n yet_o how_o few_o of_o we_o be_v there_o that_o understand_v what_o we_o ask_v though_o there_o be_v nothing_o more_o please_v to_o god_n nor_o nothing_o that_o tend_v more_o to_o the_o establishment_n of_o our_o own_o quiet_a than_o this_o resignation_n of_o our_o will_n to_o the_o will_n of_o god_n which_o we_o therein_o pray_v for_o for_o can_v we_o in_o time_n of_o great_a trouble_n and_o at_o the_o low_a ebb_n of_o affliction_n consider_v that_o it_o be_v the_o will_n of_o god_n without_o who_o nothing_o come_v to_o pass_v and_o who_o alone_a will_n be_v the_o rule_n of_o all_o righteousness_n that_o consideration_n will_v soon_o allay_v all_o those_o storm_n of_o passion_n and_o discontent_n which_o be_v so_o ready_a to_o arise_v in_o our_o soul_n under_o such_o dispensation_n of_o providence_n and_o make_v all_o calm_a and_o quiet_a there_o and_o this_o be_v that_o which_o silence_v all_o the_o

shall_v confine_v myself_o to_o a_o few_o and_o the_o first_o shall_v be_v that_o of_o old_a eli_n the_o priest_n who_o be_v a_o good_a man_n but_o too_o indulgent_a a_o father_n his_o wicked_a child_n who_o thereby_o take_v encouragement_n to_o sin_n by_o which_o god_n be_v so_o provoke_v that_o he_o send_v samuel_n to_o eli_n with_o such_o a_o message_n as_o be_v enough_o to_o make_v his_o ear_n to_o tingle_v import_v no_o less_o than_o the_o destruction_n of_o he_o and_o his_o house_n and_o that_o the_o iniquity_n of_o his_o house_n shall_v not_o be_v purge_v with_o sacrifice_n nor_o offer_v for_o ever_o because_o his_o son_n have_v make_v themselves_o vile_a and_o he_o restrain_v they_o not_o and_o yet_o even_o under_o so_o heavy_a a_o message_n as_o this_o be_v the_o good_a old_a man_n resign_v himself_o up_o to_o the_o will_n of_o god_n say_v it_o be_v the_o lord_n let_v he_o do_v what_o seem_v he_o good_a a_o second_o instance_n shall_v be_v that_o of_o king_n david_n when_o he_o be_v force_v to_o fly_v from_o the_o rebellion_n which_o absalon_n his_o own_o son_n have_v raise_v against_o he_o absalon_n have_v aspire_v to_o the_o kingdom_n and_o wheedle_v the_o people_n out_o of_o their_o loyalty_n and_o allegiance_n upon_o a_o pretence_n of_o the_o mismanagement_n of_o his_o father_n tell_v those_o that_o come_v to_o the_o king_n for_o judgement_n in_o any_o cause_n that_o there_o be_v no_o man_n depute_v of_o the_o king_n to_o hear_v they_o and_o then_o wish_v he_o be_v make_v judge_n in_o the_o land_n that_o he_o may_v do_v they_o justice_n by_o which_o sly_a insinuation_n he_o have_v steal_v away_o the_o heart_n of_o the_o isralite_n from_o his_o father_n and_o when_o by_o these_o ill_a practice_n thing_n be_v ripe_a for_o a_o open_a
