to_o the_o king_n and_o we_o have_v one_o in_o the_o court_n to_o follow_v it_o we_o hope_v we_o shall_v not_o be_v forget_v especial_o if_o we_o have_v the_o prince_n the_o king_n elder_a son_n to_o

for_o a_o remembrance_n of_o they_o and_o that_o as_o we_o have_v many_o sin_n for_o which_o he_o may_v remember_v to_o punish_v we_o so_o our_o repentance_n faith_n prayer_n service_n do_v to_o his_o

that_o god_n will_v remember_v we_o and_o they_o according_a to_o all_o the_o service_n we_o have_v do_v to_o he_o this_o i_o say_v shall_v make_v all_o forward_a and_o zealous_a in_o god_n service_n both_o as_o they_o be_v christian_n and_o in_o their_o several_a calling_n that_o there_o may_v be_v something_o for_o which_o they_o may_v pray_v themselves_o and_o other_o for_o they_o that_o god_n will_v remember_v they_o and_o whereas_o they_o pray_v for_o the_o king_n that_o god_n will_v remember_v all_o his_o prayer_n and_o service_n we_o see_v that_o we_o may_v not_o only_o pray_v to_o

only_o that_o which_o they_o now_o pray_v but_o that_o that_o they_o have_v do_v before_o when_o they_o be_v in_o health_n and_o though_o they_o can_v do_v as_o they_o will_v nay_o it_o may_v be_v for_o pain_n speak_v one_o word_n as_o he_o require_v yet_o if_o they_o have_v do_v any_o thing_n in_o truth_n before_o that_o he_o will_v now_o in_o this_o time_n of_o their_o need_n remember_v that_o and_o they_o for_o it_o and_o so_o no_o doubt_n he_o will_n and_o this_o be_v a_o singular_a fruit_n of_o those_o that_o neglect_v not_o the_o time_n of_o prayer_n and_o of_o god_n service_n when_o they_o may_v that_o they_o shall_v be_v remember_v for_o it_o hereafter_o and_o for_o that_o which_o they_o have_v do_v before_o when_o for_o the_o time_n present_v they_o shall_v be_v able_a
