“i grieve to think how insensible i have bene of the claims of thy authority,

and the endearments of thy love;

how little i have credited thy truth,

trusted thy promises,

feared thy threats,

obeyed thy commands,

improved by advantages,

welcomed thy warnings,

responding to thy grace;

but notwithstanding my desert I yet live. May thy goodness always lead me to repentance, and thy longsuffering prove my salvation.”
