6_o note_n *_o if_o we_o do_v well_o this_o day_n must_v be_v unto_o we_o all_o a_o very_a painful_a day_n even_o a_o day_n of_o battle_n against_o all_o the_o pleasure_n that_o ever_o we_o have_v in_o sin_n since_o we_o can_v discern_v good_a from_o ill_n in_o this_o day_n we_o must_v try_v and_o search_v careful_o all_o the_o secret_n of_o our_o heart_n note_n *_o this_o be_v the_o time_n wherein_o we_o must_v keep_v a_o assize_n against_o ourselves_o both_o for_o to_o judge_v and_o condemn_v ourselves_o note_n *_o in_o a_o word_n we_o must_v all_o take_v such_o pain_n in_o sift_v out_o all_o our_o bypast_a iniquity_n that_o the_o lord_n may_v say_v of_o we_o as_o he_o say_v of_o the_o woman_n that_o break_v the_o box_n of_o ointment_n upon_o his_o head_n 8_o she_o have_v do_v

let_v we_o all_o be_v earnest_a to_o entreat_v god_n to_o give_v we_o grace_n to_o do_v what_o we_o can_v do_v and_o what_o we_o can_v not_o do_v that_o he_o will_v pity_v we_o and_o pardon_v us._n i_o read_v that_o in_o the_o day_n of_o hezekiah_n a_o number_n of_o the_o people_n which_o have_v not_o cleanse_v themselves_o do_v eat_v the_o passcover_v otherwise_o then_o it_o be_v write_v but_o what_o befall_v they_o i_o pray_v you_o many_o of_o they_o be_v trouble_v with_o sore_a sickness_n note_n *_o but_o how_o be_v they_o cure_v of_o these_o disease_n it_o be_v say_v that_o hezekiah_n pray_v for_o they_o the_o good_a lord_n say_v he_o pardon_v every_o one_o that_o prepare_v his_o heart_n to_o seek_v god_n 19_o the_o lord_n god_n of_o his_o father_n though_o he_o be_v not_o cleanse_v according_a to_o the_o purification_n of_o the_o sanctuary_n now_o what_o be_v the_o fruit_n of_o that_o prayer_n this_o be_v it_o ●o_o the_o lord_n hearken_v to_o hezekiah_n and_o heal_v the_o people_n that_o which_o the_o passover_n be_v to_o they_o the_o lord_n supper_n be_v unto_o we_o even_o a_o sacrament_n appoint_v by_o god_n for_o the_o seal_n up_o of_o our_o salvation_n if_o we_o eat_v this_o supper_n otherwise_o than_o it_o be_v write_v let_v we_o look_v for_o diverse_a disease_n for_o this_o cause_n say_v the_o apostle_n 30._o many_o be_v weak_a and_o sickly_a among_o you_o and_o many_o sleep_n that_o be_v die_v let_v we_o therefore_o as_o we_o will_v desire_v our_o body_n health_n and_o our_o soul_n salvation_n prepare_v ourselves_o to_o meet_v the_o lord_n to_o
