Do we beg any more then thou hast promised? oh hast not thou accepted of that satisfaction that Christ hath made in his own person? if we had suffered the torments of hell, it could not have made that satisfaction that Christ has made: give us the witness of the spirit and thy love, and we will say we have enough; give us hearts of flesh, crush the head of the serpent in our souls. O Lord Christ, thou camest into the world to destroy the works of the Devil in our hearts, and to build up the Kingdom of the Spirit in us: oh when shall we see the old man decay in us, and the old man to live more and more.

Oh, be wisdom to guide us, and righteousness to cleanse us from guilt and redemption to deliver us from the wages of sin: let us be nothing in our selves, that we may be all in thee our Saviour: oh honour us so far, that we may honour thee. We pray thee strengthen our weak faith, quiet our consciences, we would not live a day longer, then that we may honour thee; tread Satan under our feet, sit us for our places and employments, let not our conditions be so low, but that our hearts may be lower: we are p•sting to death, oh let sin dye before we die: let us know our names are written in the book of life, before thou take away our life.
