Be much in duties of mortification: 1lye often in sackcloth and ashes before the Lord; exercise thy self in frequent acts of Self denial; little dost thou know how soon God may put a new song into thy mouth, — Lord, thou hast turned for me my mourning, 2thou hast put off my sack-cloth, and hast girded me with gladness, to the end my glory may sing praise unto thee and not be silent, &c.

He filleth the hungry with good things.
