of_o my_o heart_n which_o may_v wash_v away_o the_o spot_v of_o my_o sin_n replenish_v my_o soul_n always_o with_o heavenly_a delectation_n and_o heavenly_a mirth_n that_o i_o may_v obtain_v some_o

her_o desire_n for_o the_o grace_n of_o a_o good_a work_n be_v to_o persevere_v and_o continue_v in_o the_o same_o and_o because_o she_o do_v love_n more_o than_o other_o and_o that_o in_o love_v she_o weep_v and_o in_o weep_v she_o search_v and_o in_o seach_v she_o continue_v therefore_o be_v it_o thy_o pleasure_n that_o she_o shall_v first_o find_v thou_o see_v thou_o and_o talk_v with_o
