Chapter X, Part 1

Showeth the answer of the louing Soul unto her Lord.

" O LORD, be merciful unto me, who " am nothing, and can do nothing, with- " out Thy Help and Grace.

" Indeed do I see, in the light of my " nature, that Thou art Creator and Lord 1 ' of Heaven and earth, and of all created " things. I see and I believe, in the ' ' Christian Faith, all that belongeth there- " unto ; and my desire is in the fulfilling " of Thy Law and Thy Commandments, " everyway, with all my power, and by " Thy Help and Grace.

" And this is the duty of all Thy mem- " bers, and of every Christian man who " would be saved.

" O Lord, Thou desirest my spirit in " the inward parts, that I may see Thee as " Thou seest me, and love Thee as Thou " lovest me."
