i_o be_o here_o a_o miserable_a creature_n and_o have_v not_o god_n of_o his_o infinite_a grace_n and_o mercy_n look_v upon_o i_o as_o sad_a a_o spectacle_n of_o misery_n as_o ever_o your_o eye_n

that_o the_o wage_n of_o sin_n be_v death_n i_o have_v be_v a_o very_a great_a sinner_n and_o as_o i_o think_v the_o great_a of_o sinner_n and_o my_o desire_n be_v that_o my_o repentance_n may_v be_v

indeed_o i_o wish_v i_o have_v more_o strength_n that_o my_o word_n may_v reach_v not_o only_o unto_o the_o ear_n but_o unto_o the_o heart_n of_o every_o rebellious_a and_o disobedient_a child_n and_o
