suitable_a for_o true_a repentance_n to_o pitch_v upon_o some_o particular_a sin_n in_o the_o vileness_n whereof_o the_o evil_a of_o other_o sin_n may_v be_v take_v up_o and_o lament_v against_o thou_o have_v i_o do_v this_o evil_a he_o mean_v the_o particular_a whereof_o nathan_n charge_v he_o in_o the_o matter_n of_o uriah_n 5._o the_o material_a injury_n and_o hurt_n of_o a_o sinful_a

which_o give_v the_o law_n against_o thou_o thou_o have_v i_o sin_v 6._o if_o the_o injury_n do_v to_o the_o creature_n can_v be_v sever_v from_o the_o offence_n do_v to_o god_n the_o conscience_n

9_o the_o conscience_n right_o waken_v in_o the_o sense_n of_o sin_n can_v but_o justify_v what_o god_n have_v speak_v in_o his_o word_n of_o man_n sinfulness_n and_o of_o the_o merit_n of_o sin_n and_o of_o whatsoever_o god_n have_v do_v or_o shall_v do_v in_o the_o punish_n of_o sin_n for_o david_n make_v this_o deep_a confession_n of_o sin_n against_o himself_o that_o god_n may_v be_v

word_n and_o his_o work_n yet_o shall_v no_o m●…n_n be_v able_a to_o bear_v a_o blot_n upon_o god_n but_o every_o conscience_n when_o awake_a shall_v be_v find_v to_o blame_v the_o man_n and_o to_o justify_v god_n in_o all_o his_o word_n and_o proceed_n as_o david_n be_v force_v to_o blame_v himself_o here_o that_o god_n may_v be_v justify_v when_o he_o speak_v and_o clear_v when_o he_o be_v judge_v 11._o as_o original_a sin_n be_v common_a to_o all_o man_n by_o natural_a propagation_n from_o their_o parent_n so_o be_v it_o not_o abolish_v out_o of_o the_o most_o holy_a in_o this_o life_n and_o as_o it_o be_v find_v to_o utter_v itself_o by_o actual_a transgression_n in_o the_o child_n of_o god_n so_o must_v the_o evil_a thereof_o be_v acknowledge_v by_o they_o and_o that_o not_o to_o extenuate_v but_o to_o aggravate_v their_o sin_n thereby_o as_o david_n show_v here_o say_v behold_v i_o be_v shape_v in_o iniquity_n and_o in_o sin_n do_v my_o mother_n conceive_v i_o 12._o no_o

when_o it_o be_v do_v in_o spirit_n and_o truth_n it_o be_v acceptable_a to_o god_n and_o give_v ear_n to_o the_o conscience_n behold_v say_v david_n after_o his_o deep_a confession_n thou_o desire_v

to_o make_v a_o sincere_a confession_n of_o his_o sin_n do_v expect_v that_o god_n shall_v effectual_o teach_v he_o more_o wisdom_n or_o wise_a behaviour_n in_o his_o sight_n in_o the_o hide_a part_n thou_o will_v make_v i_o to_o know_v wisdom_n that_o be_v thou_o will_v make_v my_o conscience_n judge_v yet_o more_o impartial_o of_o my_o native_a sinfulness_n and_o will_v teach_v i_o to_o walk_v
