lord_n when_o i_o call_v to_o mind_n how_o many_o day_n have_v pass_v i_o without_o bend_v of_o a_o knee_n how_o many_o night_n i_o have_v go_v prayerless_a to_o bed_n i_o may_v well_o wonder_v that_o i_o be_o this_o hour_n alive_a to_o speak_v unto_o thou_o i_o have_v be_v too_o unmindful_a of_o thy_o holy_a providence_n and_o be_o therefore_o utter_o unworthy_a of_o thy_o merciful_a protection_n few_o and_o full_a of_o evil_n have_v my_o day_n be_v in_o the_o house_n of_o my_o pilgrimage_n i_o know_v not_o how_o soon_o i_o may_v go_v hence_o and_o yet_o i_o still_o live_v as_o if_o i_o know_v not_o why_o i_o come_v hither_o i_o be_o many_o way_n invite_v to_o my_o heavenly_a home_n how_o sweet_o do_v thou_o wean_v from_o the_o misery_n of_o life_n by_o the_o blessedness_n of_o death_n by_o this_o evening_n rest_v of_o my_o body_n i_o be_o put_v in_o mind_n of_o that_o eternal_a rest_n of_o my_o soul_n this_o day_n end_v tell_v i_o that_o the_o end_n of_o all_o thing_n be_v at_o hand_n that_o the_o fashion_n of_o this_o world_n pass_v and_o that_o all_o thing_n shall_v become_v new_a as_o this_o hour_n be_v the_o evening_n to_o this_o day_n so_o this_o day_n for_o aught_o i_o know_v may_v be_v the_o evening_n to_o my_o whole_a life_n i_o can_v challenge_v to_o myself_o one_o minute_n more_o how_o vain_a be_o i_o to_o promise_v day_n and_o year_n lord_n in_o the_o whole_a current_n of_o thy_o sacred_a story_n i_o find_v but_o only_o one_o that_o dare_v presume_v upon_o so_o large_a a_o reckon_n and_o he_o thou_o brande_v with_o the_o name_n of_o fool_n let_v his_o

this_o life_n how_o sudden_o and_o to_o man_n eye_n how_o fearful_o how_o unspeakable_a be_v thy_o mercy_n unto_o i_o to_o spare_v i_o for_o repentonce_o how_o often_o and_o how_o earnest_o have_v thou_o invite_v i_o to_o mercy_n how_o cold_o and_o how_o careless_o have_v i_o refuse_v these_o thy_o gracious_a offer_n still_o i_o sin_n and_o still_o thou_o forgive_v and_o which_o be_v the_o height_n of_o my_o impiety_n i_o therefore_o be_o more_o and_o more_o evil_a against_o thou_o because_o thou_o be_v more_o and_o more_o gracious_a unto_o i_o and_o it_o be_v now_o most_o just_a with_o thou_o even_o this_o very_a moment_n to_o put_v a_o period_n to_o my_o sinful_a life_n lord_n let_v this_o teach_v i_o to_o improve_v the_o short_a remnant_n of_o my_o day_n to_o thy_o service_n and_o
