For the which also / if we profit never so high / yet must we ever say forgive us / 2father our trespasses) yet let us do our diligence / calling for the spirit of god / that this concupiscence reign not in our mortal body ever knowleginge with a mild heart our iniquities to our father which is in heaven / 3for he is faithful & just / 4to remit us our since / and to purge us from all iniquity / through the blood of Jesus Christ his Son.
