at_o that_o time_n to_o this_o end_n it_o will_v be_v necessary_a for_o he_o to_o search_v into_o his_o own_o heart_n and_o examine_v over_o his_o whole_a life_n from_o the_o beginning_n to_o confess_v and_o bewail_v all_o his_o sin_n to_o god_n to_o pour_v out_o most_o ardent_a prayer_n and_o sigh_n by_o the_o assistance_n of_o the_o holy_a spirit_n for_o the_o obtain_n pardon_n of_o his_o sin_n and_o reconciliation_n with_o god_n in_o christ_n our_o saviour_n example_n of_o such_o prayer_n may_v be_v find_v in_o the_o penitential_a psalm_n the_o prayer_n of_o manasses_n and_o

part_n of_o the_o minister_n of_o god_n word_n and_o his_o friend_n to_o pray_v for_o the_o sick_a person_n that_o he_o may_v obtain_v pardon_n of_o his_o sin_n and_o not_o be_v overcome_v by_o the_o temptation_n of_o the_o devil_n it_o often_o happen_v that_o when_o satan_n can_v drive_v man_n to_o despair_n he_o than_o put_v on_o another_o disguise_n and_o puff_v they_o up_o with_o a_o opinion_n of_o their_o merit_n this_o temptation_n be_v diligent_o to_o be_v withstand_v for_o satan_n exalt_v those_o who_o before_o he_o can_v not_o sink_v down_o that_o so_o he_o may_v cast_v they_o
