now_o this_o be_v that_o we_o pray_v for_o that_o god_n will_v not_o only_o take_v the_o guilt_n of_o sin_n away_o with_o the_o punishment_n and_o penalty_n due_a unto_o it_o but_o the_o corruption_n of_o it_o also_o this_o be_v our_o desire_n other_o indeed_o be_v well_o enough_o content_a to_o have_v their_o sin_n pardon_v but_o to_o have_v they_o mortify_v restrain_v weaken_a and_o the_o

request_n first_o in_o that_o we_o pray_v not_o to_o be_v lead_v into_o tentation_n here_o be_v a_o close_a confession_n that_o our_o sin_n deserve_v it_o that_o the_o lord_n may_v just_o leave_v we_o unto_o the_o will_n and_o power_n of_o temptatation_n as_o it_o be_v say_v of_o the_o gentile_n rom._n 1._o 24._o wherefore_o 24._o also_o god_n give_v they_o up_o to_o their_o heart_n lust_n to_o

may_v be_v save_v for_o this_o cause_n god_n shall_v send_v they_o strong_a delusion_n that_o they_o shall_v believe_v a_o lie_n so_o that_o god_n in_o his_o just_a judgement_n give_v we_o up_o to_o our_o sin_n make_v one_o sin_n the_o punishment_n of_o another_o this_o the_o lord_n show_v plain_o in_o the_o parable_n of_o the_o vineyard_n isaiah_n 5._o 6._o for_o so_o also_o a_o man_n that_o have_v vineyard_n a_o vineyard_n as_o long_o as_o it_o bear_v well_o he_o will_v fence_v it_o weed_v it_o and_o hedge_v it_o that_o no_o hurt_n come_v unto_o it_o but_o if_o it_o grow_v barren_a and_o

we_o have_v abuse_v the_o gift_n and_o grace_n which_o the_o lord_n first_o bestow_v upon_o us._n the_o second_o part_n of_o this_o confession_n be_v that_o we_o be_v exceed_o prone_a to_o yield_v unto_o temptation_n wherefore_o we_o acknowledge_v that_o the_o lord_n in_o justice_n may_v give_v we_o up_o to_o the_o temptation_n of_o the_o devil_n for_o which_o cause_n we_o pray_v that_o we_o

without_o i_o you_o can_v do_v nothing_o 5._o wherefore_o we_o must_v desire_v still_o that_o god_n will_v deliver_v we_o by_o his_o almighty_a power_n a_o little_a child_n so_o long_o as_o he_o be_v
