O Lord, I must confess, thou gavest me opportunity to read thy Written Word; Thou art also my Creator and Preserver; but, Lord, I have not done according to the Offers of thy Grace; thou hast not hid from me the opportunities of the Good Things and Liberties of thy House and Ordinances, but I have waxed wanton under the Enjoyment of them. I have given thee just cause to provoke thee to Anger, and thou hast left me to Shame, not only on my self but on my Relations. O Lord God I do confess that I have sinned against thee, and done all these Iniquities against thee, and before thine eyes. Lord, I have sinned especially against thee; pardon my Sins of Youth; Lord, pardon this bloody Sin I stand here Guilty of▪ O Lord, hide not thy face from me; I humbly beg it of thee: for there is no man […] Redeem his Brothers Soul, but only the Blood of Jesus Christ must do it. Let it be sufficient to satisfy for my poor Soul. I h••e not done any thing that thou shouldest be pleased to show me thy Love, or that I should have any thing from thee, but only Everlasting Misery.

If my Soul be not humbled, Lord, humble it; let my Petition be acceptable in Heaven thy Holy Mountain. I am unworthy to come into thy Presence, yet O let me come into thy Kingdom; and deliver my Soul from Blood Guiltiness, in the Blood of Jesus Christ▪ O let my wounded Soul mourn for my sin that hath brought me here, Sin brings Ruin to the poor Soul; woe is unto me for mine Iniquity. If I had gone to Prayer in the morning when I committed this sin, Lord God, thou wouldest have kept back my hands from shedding innocent Blood: O Gracious God, Remember thou me in Mercy; let me be an Object of thy pity and not of thy wrath; the Lord hear me and pardon my Sins. Take care of my poor Children. I have scattered them like straggling sheep flying before the Wolf;
