my_o duty_n and_o i_o will_v obey_v ans_fw-fr 4._o in_o kindly_a sorrow_n for_o the_o dead_a the_o heart_n be_v much_o quiet_v by_o return_n of_o prayer_n make_v by_o god_n to_o the_o request_n that_o in_o our_o sorrow_n we_o make_v to_o he_o when_o we_o pray_v while_o they_o live_v and_o we_o pray_v that_o they_o may_v long_o live_v if_o our_o prayer_n be_v consistent_a with_o his_o purpose_n or_o that_o by_o his_o grace_n and_o spirit_n he_o will_v help_v they_o to_o die_v prepare_v and_o to_o make_v a_o happy_a and_o comfortable_a end_n and_o give_v we_o ground_n of_o hope_n that_o if_o they_o may_v not_o live_v with_o we_o on_o earth_n they_o shall_v live_v with_o he_o in_o heaven_n that_o if_o god_n will_v take_v they_o from_o we_o he_o will_v take_v they_o to_o himself_o out_o of_o we_o into_o abraham_n be_v bosom_n the_o one_o he_o do_v deny_v which_o we_o think_v will_v have_v be_v good_a for_o we_o that_o live_v the_o other_o he_o do_v grant_v which_o in_o sober_a reason_n and_o in_o a_o compose_a mind_n we_o can_v but_o judge_v to_o be_v better_o for_o they_o they_o do_v die_v contrary_a to_o our_o prayer_n they_o do_v die_v with_o peace_n and_o comfort_n and_o hope_v of_o heaven_n according_a to_o our_o prayer_n in_o our_o kindly_a sorrow_n for_o they_o when_o dead_a the_o heart_n be_v much_o quiet_v the_o mind_n compose_v we_o grieve_v but_o be_v

the_o relation_n be_v dead_a we_o go_v and_o pray_v against_o the_o working_n of_o corruption_n by_o reason_n of_o god_n dispensation_n that_o we_o may_v not_o murmur_v nor_o repine_v nor_o charge_n god_n foolish_o for_o his_o deal_n with_o we_o we_o find_v sin_n stir_v we_o cry_v to_o god_n and_o they_o be_v crush_v we_o feel_v temptation_n assault_v of_o we_o we_o call_v to_o heaven_n s●t_v help_v to_o resist_v they_o and_o they_o be_v repel_v we_o be_v sensible_a of_o our_o own_o weakness_n with_o patience_n and_o due_a submission_n to_o bear_v so_o great_a a_o trial_n god_n by_o his_o

and_o such_o return_n must_v quiet_v my_o heart_n in_o the_o time_n of_o my_o grief_n and_o sorrow_n but_o turbulent_a sorrow_n not_o mere_o natural_a but_o become_v vicious_a and_o exorbitant_a by_o
