without_o the_o which_o no_o man_n can_v turn_v untoo_o god_n for_o by_o faith_n as_o say_v paul_n we_o have_v access_n untoo_o god_n moreover_o where_o as_o be_v add_v make_v too_o yourselves_o a_o

helthful_a repentance_n be_v a_o hearty_a sorinesse_n for_o god_n displeasure_n with_o a_o desire_n and_o hope_n of_o forgiveness_n and_o a_o earnest_a endever_n too_o eschew_v all_o sin_n and_o too_o make_v the_o whole_a life_n from_o thencefoorth_o allowable_a before_o god_n this_o thing_n we_o may_v see_v plain_o in_o this_o notable_a example_n david_n after_o his_o horrible_a fall_n intoo_o

here_o he_o both_o sorow_v for_o his_o own_o misery_n that_o he_o have_v so_o lewd_o offend_v god_n and_o also_o acknowledge_v god_n too_o be_v merciful_a whereby_o there_o be_v in_o he_o desire_v and_o hope_n &_o lively_a trust_n of_o the_o messiah_n now_o how_o great_a his_o sorrow_n be_v and_o how_o great_a his_o faith_n be_v whereby_o he_o overcome_v the_o sorrow_n the_o same_o psalm_n

as_o this_o there_o be_v many_o as_o of_o adam_n manasses_n peter_n the_o thief_n and_o mary_n magdalene_n and_o other_o which_o thing_n it_o behove_v we_o too_o think_v upon_o that_o by_o their_o
