the_o piety_n of_o the_o gounrnment_n will_v prescribe_v and_o enjoin_v day_n of_o public_a humiliation_n as_o former_o which_o probable_o will_v be_v altogether_o slight_v and_o neglect_v by_o the_o

have_v attain_v even_o to_o this_o discover_v neither_o inward_a nor_o outward_a token_n of_o humiliation_n when_o israel_n have_v sin_v in_o the_o matter_n of_o the_o golden_a calf_n exod._n 23._o

beforehand_o that_o they_o may_v be_v stir_v up_o to_o more_o due_a observation_n of_o such_o day_n of_o public_a humiliation_n and_o not_o think_v it_o enough_o to_o give_v they_o a_o bare_a warn_v that_o such_o a_o day_n be_v approach_v if_o they_o will_v show_v more_o zeal_n in_o this_o matter_n it_o will_v have_v a_o great_a influence_n on_o people_n a_o lively_a serious_a ministry_n be_v
