to_o be_v hear_v in_o other_o thing_n be_v first_o to_o beg_v for_o grace_n psal_n 21._o 4._o he_o ask_v life_n of_o thou_o and_o thou_o give_v he_o length_n of_o day_n for_o ever_o solomon_n seek_v

63._o 3._o then_o wealth_n than_o honour_n none_o ever_o complain_v of_o too_o much_o mercy_n of_o too_o much_o love_n of_o god_n these_o be_v blessing_n that_o swallow_v up_o other_o misery_n yea_o the_o loss_n of_o other_o blessing_n grace_n with_o poverty_n it_o be_v a_o 9_o preferment_n peace_n of_o conscience_n with_o outward_a trouble_n be_v a_o happy_a condition_n if_o there_o be_v a_o

send_v a_o token_n to_o a_o friend_n he_o will_v send_v the_o best_a of_o the_o kind_n these_o be_v the_o best_a mercy_n if_o you_o be_v to_o deal_v with_o god_n for_o your_o own_o soul_n you_o can_v ask_v no_o better_o you_o may_v ask_v temporal_a thing_n for_o god_n love_v the_o prosperity_n of_o his_o saint_n but_o these_o special_a blessing_n shall_v have_v the_o preferment_n in_o your_o
