WHEREIN you have erred, be not asham'd to confess and return; for however you are filled with Confidence of your selves, you are [fully] seen to others.

FRET not at Instruments, neither look so much at Them, as at that Righteous HAND that is turned against You.

YOU have lost your Glory, it cannot be hid; the Substance is departed, tho' the Shadows re∣main; Therefore let Humility and unfeigned Repentance be found amongst You; that Glory may be given to HIM, who is the Searcher of all Hearts.

This was Printed 1675, and 1696.
