in_o prayer_n we_o may_v the_o better_o know_v and_o more_o earnest_o repent_v our_o sin_n that_o be_v the_o cause_n of_o our_o trouble_n three_o that_o by_o often_o remembrance_n and_o diverse_a

most_o gréevous_o displease_v the_o second_o virtue_n patient_a expectation_n in_o trouble_n expectation_n declare_v that_o we_o be_v much_o bind_v unto_o god_n that_o chasten_v we_o in_o this_o
