soul, and do you give God heartie thanks, that in this Faith you were born, have lived in it, and now shal die in the same?

Do you yourself de∣sire, and do you wish us to desire at the hands of God, that this Faith may not fail you, until the hour, and in the hour of death?

Is there in your mind any scruple, touching a∣ny matter of Faith or Religion?

Say, Lord, I beleive, help Thou mine unbelief. S. Mark 9.24.
