Remit, who is in this world which hath not need to say, Lord forgive me? No man hewing, nor never was: nor shall be, (our […] only excepted) he was agnus immaculatus, an unde […]. I […] a verse which I learned almost 4c. years1 ago, which is this, Saepe praecor […], mortemque deprecor idem. I pray many times for […] to come: and again I pray that he shall not come. This verse put […] in Precor and deprecor. Precor, is when I would same have a thing, deprecor, ⟨image 52⟩is when I would avoid it. Like as Elijah the prophet2 when Jezebel had killed the prophets of the lord, Elijah being in a hole in the mount, desired of god to dye, and this is precor. Now deprecor is his contrarium, when I would avoid the thing then I use deprecor. Now in the lord prayer till hither we have been in precor that is to say, we have3 desired things at gods hand. Now […] deprecor, I desire him now to remove such things which may […] me […], as […] which doth harm, therefore I would have him to take away my trespasses. Now who is in the world or ever hath been, which hath nor need to say this deprecor, to desire god to take from him sins, to forgive him his tres passes. Truly no saint in heaven, be they as holy as ever they will, yet they have had need of this deprecor, they have had need to say, lord forgive us our trespasses. Now you ask wherein standeth our righteousness? Answer. In that that4 god forgiveth unto us our unrighteousness. Wherein standeth our goodness? In that that god taketh away our illness, so that our goodness standeth in his goodness.
