under_o a_o sense_n of_o their_o own_o great_a demerit_n they_o may_v yet_o rejoice_v that_o their_o misery_n be_v not_o answerable_a to_o they_o and_o when_o they_o mourn_v the_o most_o deep_o

order_v our_o sacrifice_n according_a to_o the_o exigent_n of_o both_o mingle_v incense_n with_o our_o trespass-offering_a and_o put_v honey_n into_o our_o bitter_a herb_n confess_v our_o many_o great_a sin_n that_o we_o may_v be_v humble_v and_o consider_v god_n great_a mercy_n that_o we_o may_v be_v exalt_v it_o be_v those_o that_o bring_v we_o into_o danger_n it_o be_v these_o that_o

his_o mercy_n that_o we_o be_v not_o consume_v add_v our_o prayer_n and_o humble_o implore_v the_o continuance_n of_o the_o same_o that_o as_o we_o have_v taste_v they_o so_o we_o may_v still_o that_o
