he_o show_v it_o by_o miracle_n of_o mercy_n by_o wonder_n of_o love_n by_o most_o singular_a and_o remarkable_a deliverance_n which_o he_o wrought_v for_o they_o in_o due_a time_n god_n send_v his_o

by_o that_o mean_n do_v prepare_v they_o for_o suffering_n and_o dispose_v they_o to_o patience_n and_o contentedness_n and_o to_o a_o unshaken_a and_o steady_a faith_n in_o god_n under_o all_o event_n of_o thing_n by_o this_o course_n our_o lord_n will_v deliver_v we_o from_o those_o care_n and_o anxiety_n from_o those_o fear_n and_o distraction_n that_o render_v this_o life_n the_o great_a burden_n to_o we_o and_o because_o we_o be_v apt_a to_o be_v mighty_o concern_v for_o the_o necessary_n of_o this_o life_n and_o very_o apt_a to_o be_v afraid_a of_o death_n especial_o of_o a_o

of_o our_o distract_n care_v and_o those_o fear_n that_o make_v this_o life_n a_o burden_n to_o we_o and_o to_o this_o purpose_n our_o saviour_n discourse_v most_o divine_o in_o his_o sermon_n on_o
