The Christians great interest

Here I give the hand to thee, and do take all things about me witnesses, that I, whatever I be, or have hitherto been, do accept so Gods offer of peace through Christ, and do make a sure Covenant with thee this day never to be reversed, ⟨p. 122⟩hoping that thou wilt make all things forth-coming, both on thy part and mine, seriously begging (as I desire to be saved) that my corruptions may be subdued, and my Neck brought unto thy sweet yoke in all things, and my heart made cheerfully to acquiesce in whatsoever thou dost unto me, or with me, in order to these ends. Now, glory be unto thee, O Father, who devised such a Salvation, and gave the Son to accomplish it; Glory be to Christ Jesus, who at so dear a rate, did purchase the out-letting of that love from the Fathers bosom, and through whom alone this access is granted, and in whom I am reconciled unto God, and honourably united unto him, and am no more an Enemy or Stranger: Glory be to the Holy Ghost, who did alarm me when I was destroying my self: and who did not only convince me of my hazard, but did also open my eyes to behold the relief provided in Christ; yea, and did persuade and determine my wild heart to fall in love with Christ, as the enriching treasure; and this day doth teach me how to Covenant with God, and how to impropriate to my self all the sure Mercies of David, and blessings of Abraham, and to secure to my self the favour and friendship of God for ever. Now with my soul, heart, head, and whole man; as I can, I do acquiesce in my choice this day, henceforth resolving not to be my own, but thine; And that the care of whatsoever concerns me shall be on thee, as my Head and Lord, protesting humbly that failings on my part, (against which I resolve thou knowest) shall not make void this Covenant; for so hast thou said, which I intend not to abuse, but so much the more to cleave close unto thee, and I must have liberty to renew, ratify, and draw extracts of this transaction, as often as shall be found needful. Now I know thy consent to this bargain, stands recorded in Scripture, so as I need no new signification of it; and I, having accepted of thy offer upon thy own terms, will henceforth wait for what is good, and for thy salvation in the ⟨p. 123⟩end; As thou art faithful, pardon what is amiss in my way of doing the thing, and accept me in my sweet Lord Jesus, in whom I only desire pardon:
