Oh Lord, Thou art an Infinite, Blessed, Glorious Being, the Supreme Being of all; I am a poor, vile worm that 1lie under thy feet, it's mercy that thou wilt vouchsafe to look towards me; thou mightest have let me gone on in base ways, and perished to all eternity without giving ⟨p. 129⟩me any call to thy self; but now that thou shouldest give me a call to thy self, the high and glorious blessed Lord, this is mercy; Lord, I come, and with fear and trembling fall down before thee saying, Lord, what wilt thou have me to do? Those who have been wavering and afterwards settled they have found that this hath 2been the thing that hath settled them, some dreadful authority of the high God that hath come to their hearts in some truth beyond what formerly he hath done, and this hath fully taken off their souls to him.
