O thou great God, who hast tender bowels of compassions, and multitudes of mercies for us mi∣serable sinners, who art not easy to be provoked, but ever ready to forgive, who sufferest not thy whole displeasure to arise against us, but even in thy very judgements remembrest mercy, and art then moved with the sight of our misery, have mercy upon me a great and grievous finner.
Lord I have sinned, I have transgressed, I have done foolishly, in departing from thy judgements: But righteousness belongeth unto thee (O Lord) and unto me shame and confusion of face; O let thy bowels of compassions remove out thy sight my multitudes of transgressions, that I may now ap∣pear before thee with a joyfull heart, and happy soul.
Let thy words be sweeter to me than the hony and the hony comb (than the vain pleasures, and false profits of this life) O let my chiefest joy be in thy service, my greatest delight to walk in thy waies,
