Q. What if the party be not able to make full satisfaction for the wrong he hath done?
A. If he be not in truth able to make full satisfaction, yet he must restore so far as he is able, and his Estate will reach; and God will accept the will for the deed, according to that of the Apostle, 2 Cor. 8. 12. If there be a willing mind, it is accepted according to that a man hath, and not according to that he hath not.
2. He must humbly acknowledge the wrong he hath done. If satisfaction cannot be made by Restitution, then it must be by Humiliation.
3. He must show himself willing to restore whatsoever he hath unjustly and fraudulently gotten; and promise satisfaction whensoever God shall enable him thereunto.
