i_o can_v hearty_o wish_v that_o the_o death_n of_o this_o precious_a christian_n may_v serve_v this_o day_n instead_o of_o a_o death's-head_n to_o stir_v up_o your_o charity_n and_o liberality_n forasmuch_o as_o you_o know_v not_o how_o soon_o god_n may_v take_v you_o from_o your_o estate_n or_o your_o estate_n from_o you_o how_o soon_o god_n may_v call_v you_o to_o give_v a_o account_n of_o

soon_o get_v a_o 100_o l._n at_o a_o collection_n in_o london_n than_o a_o hundred_o penny_n in_o many_o other_o place_n as_o god_n have_v give_v you_o large_a estate_n so_o also_o have_v he_o give_v to_o many_o of_o you_o large_a heart_n and_o therefore_o why_o shall_v not_o believe_v and_o confident_o conclude_v that_o you_o will_v this_o day_n answer_n expectation_n and_o that_o you_o will_v be_v charitable_a though_o not_o to_o be_v see_v of_o man_n yet_o so_o as_o that_o man_n may_v see_v it_o and_o bless_v god_n for_o you_o i_o shall_v add_v only_o this_o one_o word_n more_o you_o be_v
