the_o deal_n of_o god_n with_o i_o before_o and_o after_o conversion_n and_o in_o conversion_n which_o my_o conversion_n be_v four_o year_n ago_o want_v about_o a_o quarter_n of_o a_o year_n and_o for_o a_o year_n i_o may_v say_v i_o live_v in_o the_o region_n of_o heaven_n be_v always_o rejoice_v and_o praise_v god_n but_o since_o that_o many_o cloud_n of_o darkness_n have_v pass_v over_o my_o

that_o so_o there_o may_v be_v a_o great_a perfection_n break_v forth_o in_o my_o word_n thought_n and_o action_n the_o word_n perfect_a do_v much_o seize_v upon_o my_o spirit_n but_o the_o more_o i_o

for_o the_o creature_n can_v speak_v till_o god_n speak_v but_o i_o still_o thirst_v and_o my_o soul_n pant_v as_o the_o hart_n after_o the_o water_n brook_v and_o the_o near_a the_o time_n of_o

and_o it_o be_v in_o much_o pain_n and_o great_a heaviness_n of_o spirit_n and_o a_o rend_n of_o heart_n so_o that_o i_o water_v my_o couch_n with_o my_o tear_n and_o i_o lie_v very_o heavy_a in_o

these_o discovery_n be_v as_o coal_n of_o fire_n within_o i_o which_o can_v not_o be_v keep_v in_o and_o these_o pouring_n forth_o of_o love_n have_v in_o they_o such_o a_o heat_n that_o it_o melt_v my_o freeze_a spirit_n which_o cause_v my_o eye_n to_o drop_v tear_n that_o though_o in_o the_o morning_n my_o spirit_n be_v rend_v at_o evening_n the_o son_n of_o righteousness_n arise_v with_o

please_v to_o tell_v i_o the_o reason_n why_o my_o reproof_n take_v so_o little_a effect_n on_o the_o saint_n that_o it_o be_v because_o i_o do_v not_o tell_v they_o of_o their_o fault_n in_o a_o

●lrried_v i_o out_o all_o the_o time_n of_o my_o sickness_n to_o speak_v suitable_a unto_o person_n according_a to_o each_o condition_n and_o thus_o god_n come_v in_o the_o first_o night_n the_o
