the_o bee_n from_o assyria_n to_o speak_v in_o the_o language_n of_o the_o prophet_n but_o alas_o we_o have_v vile_a vermin_n of_o our_o own_o at_o home_n the_o locust_n and_o caterpillar_n a_o army_n of_o inmate_n destroyer_n lay_a waist_n our_o land_n and_o if_o it_o may_v be_v say_v perhaps_o that_o a_o open_a enemy_n from_o without_o can_v not_o have_v great_o harm_v we_o yet_o will_v it_o

this_o very_a day_n remind_v we_o of_o our_o humiliation_n for_o those_o past_a transgression_n and_o it_o be_v by_o public_a authority_n make_v a_o stand_a law_n to_o our_o israel_n that_o once_o a_o

the_o old_a see_v of_o a_o return_v fast_o you_o man_n of_o israel_n you_o man_n of_o the_o sanhedrin_n you_o have_v give_v we_o law_n and_o ordinance_n that_o be_v not_o good_a not_o good_a indeed_o to_o those_o to_o who_o they_o be_v grievous_a and_o so_o the_o statute_n of_o the_o almighty_a himself_o be_v not_o good_a to_o a_o rebellious_a gainsaying_n people_n harden_v in_o their_o impiety_n

have_v a_o provision_n now_o make_v a_o sacrifice_n ready_a to_o offer_v to_o adjoyn_v our_o tear_n our_o sorrow_n our_o confession_n of_o what_o we_o have_v do_v amiss_o to_o provoke_v god_n wrath_n against_o we_o be_v it_o a_o great_a thing_n to_o melt_v a_o little_a into_o tenderness_n and_o compunction_n to_o bend_v our_o stubborn_a heart_n to_o bruise_v and_o soften_v they_o a_o little_a with_o the_o discipline_n of_o this_o day_n what_o be_v we_o afraid_a we_o shall_v be_v too_o repentant_a we_o shall_v overdo_v in_o duty_n more_o than_o compensate_a for_o our_o crime_n forgive_v this_o once_o that_o excess_n to_o we_o never_o be_v better_a fault_n commit_v but_o why_o do_v i_o quaere_fw-la about_o the_o day_n as_o if_o we_o can_v be_v sick_a of_o it_o since_o that_o be_v a_o argument_n against_o the_o sincerity_n of_o our_o repentance_n since_o it_o will_v seem_v as_o though_o we_o care_v not_o to_o remember_v our_o old_a sin_n and_o not_o so_o old_a neither_o since_o within_o memory_n of_o man_n still_o live_v not_o remember_v the_o murder_n of_o this_o day_n why_o the_o decree_n be_v perpetual_a to_o that_o very_a end_n it_o never_o shall_v be_v but_o remember_v and_o for_o this_o reason_n i_o take_v it_o that_o never_o the_o like_a fact_n a_o second_o time_n be_v do_v again_o if_o then_o our_o repentance_n do_v not_o come_v up_o to_o this_o perhaps_o it_o
