fearefully wounding our consciences, greeving thy good spirit, and treasuring up wrath against the day of wrath.

O Lord we have ⟨p. 193⟩grievously sinned against Thee, by contempt of thy Word, The crying sin of this place: by Atheism, ignorance, profaneness, unbelief, distrust of thy providence, carnal security, pride, hypocrisy; By fearlessness, and forgetfulness of thy great Majesty, Love of this world, and putting from us the evil day: by impatience, discontent, inward Idolatry in preferring some Creature before the mighty LORD of Heaven and Earth: By the gross neglect, or ⟨p. 194⟩wicked abuse of all the parts and kind of thy Divine Worship: Precious and powerful are those heavenly Ordinances of thine. Thy Word preached or read, prayer, meditation, conference, vows, fasting, use of good books, good company and the like, some of those have been utterly neglected by us, others quite marred by formality and sloth.
