hild : lo, here I prostrate lie,Pleading for mercy, I repent, and cry mbletns. i For gracious pardon ; lei thy gentle cars Hear that in words, what mothers judge in tears: e not my frailties, LORD, but through my fear.And look (n\ every trespass through a tear:Then calm thine anger, and appear more mild ;Remember th art a father, I a child. S. Bern. Ser. xxi. in Cant.Miserable man ! who shall deliver me from the reproachof this shameful bondage? I am a miserable man, but afree man: free, because like to Got) ; miserable, becauseagainst Go J): 0 keeper of mankind, why hast thou set meas a mark against thee ? thou hast set me, because thouhast not hindered me : It is just that thy enemy should bemy enemy, and that he who repugneth thee, should repugnme: I, who am against thee, am against myself. Epig. 6.But formd, and fight! but born, and then rebel!How small a blast will make a bubble swell ?But dares the floor affront the hand that laid it ?So apt is dust to fly ins face that made it.
