Fifthly, A Broken Heart is ⟨image 103⟩[…] great esteem with, or an excellent thing in the sight of God, Because 'tis an heart that desires now to become a receptacle, or habitation for the Spirit and Graces of the Spirit of God. It was the Devils hold before, and was contented so to be. But now it is for entertaining of, for being possessed with the holy Spirit of God. Create in me a clean heart, said David, and renew a a right spirit within me. Take not thy holy Spirit from me, uphold me with thy free Spirit, Psal. 51. 10, 11, 12.
