come
to
confefs
fin,
as
in
Solemn
Dayes
of
Humiliation,
men
will
rip
up
all
their
fins, but
before
another
day
come,
they
have
made
work
for
another
and
another
day
;
and this
is
the
reafon
when
men
come
to
confefs
their
fins
before
God,
oftheir
trifling
with h:m,and
were
it
not that
God
is a
God of
infinite patience,
he
could
not
bear
it
;
might not
he fay to
you,
you
came feven
years ago,
and
told
me
of
your
Pride,
Paffion,
Earthly-
minded_
nefs,
and
the like
;
and
do you now come
and
tell
me
the
fame
again
?
were not
God
infinitely patient, he
could never
bear
this dallying with
him,for
the
truth
is,
it
is
noth
;ng
elfe
but
infi-
nite dallying
with
God,Jer.
3.5. Wilt
thou
not
from
this
time cry
unto
me,my
Fatber,thou
art
the
guide
of
my
youth
?
they
feemed
to cry
to
God;O
thou
art
my Father
and the
guide
of
my
youth,
there
are
but
there
words
named,
but
it
is
like
they
opened
their
fins
beforeGod,and
cryed for mercy
;
O
(ayes
God
unto
them,
Thou
haftfpoken,and
cryed
out
of
the
Anger
of
mine
that
is
gone
out
againf
you
for
your
fins,
and
yet
thou haflfpoken
and
done
evil
as thou
couldf
;
this
is
an evil
thing,
and heavy
to
be
laid
to
the charge
of
any man,
to
confefs
tin,
and
pray for pardon,
and
yet commit
it
again
;
know
this day you
that
have been
confeffing
fin,
and
yet go
on
in fin
;
know
this
thing,
I
tell
you
it
is
but
dallying
with
God
:
many
men and women
do ravel
out
their Prayers
this way
;
they
make excellent
Prayers,
and when
they
have done
they ravel
all
again
by
filling
into the
fame
fin.
