the_o eight_o thing_n be_v this_o when_o you_o come_v to_o perform_v holy_a duty_n if_o you_o will_v sanctify_v god_n name_n you_o must_v consecrate_v yourselves_o to_o god_n there_o must_v be_v a_o

you_o do_v this_o this_o be_v to_o sanctify_v yourselves_o to_o god_n i_o speak_v before_o of_o a_o sanctify_a heart_n but_o now_o this_o be_v in_o a_o profession_n of_o yourselves_o to_o god_n do_v it_o secret_o at_o least_o in_o your_o own_o thought_n if_o you_o do_v not_o every_o time_n express_v it_o in_o word_n yet_o in_o your_o own_o thought_n do_v it_o devote_v yourselves_o to_o god_n every_o day_n of_o admirable_a use_n it_o will_v be_v if_o every_o day_n when_o man_n and_o woman_n worship_n god_n either_o in_o their_o closert_n or_o family_n they_o do_v profess_o devote_v and_o

thou_o be_v able_a yet_o thou_o must_v not_o think_v to_o tender_v it_o up_o by_o thy_o own_o hand_n unto_o god_n but_o thou_o must_v tender_v it_o up_o to_o the_o father_n by_o the_o hand_n of_o

thou_o have_v what_o abundance_n of_o sin_n there_o be_v in_o thy_o heart_n and_o therefore_o your_o young_a convert_n they_o look_v upon_o themselves_o more_o loathsome_a and_o vile_a then_o ever_o

to_o prayer_n account_v it_o to_o be_v a_o great_a work_n set_v a_o high_a price_n upon_o thy_o prayer_n not_o as_o have_v any_o excellency_n in_o it_o as_o it_o come_v from_o thou_o but_o set_v a_o
