we_o see_v they_o come_v we_o must_v acknowledge_v that_o god_n be_v displease_v with_o we_o and_o as_o true_a christian_n we_o must_v confess_v our_o sin_n and_o be_v grieve_v in_o ourselves_o

their_o life_n and_o to_o pray_v unto_o god_n to_o obtain_v mercy_n they_o use_v this_o follow_a form_n of_o prayer_n almighty_a god_n and_o heavenly_a father_n we_o do_v acknowledge_v and_o confess_v as_o the_o truth_n be_v that_o we_o be_v not_o worthy_a to_o lift_v up_o our_o eye_n to_o heaven_n to_o present_v ourselves_o before_o thou_o and_o that_o we_o ought_v not_o to_o presume_v so_o far_o
