' After which words, he said, ' I have lived to see this world is made up of perturbations ; and I have been long preparing to leave it, and gather- ing comfort for the dreadful hour of making my account with God, which I now apprehend to be near: and though I have by his grace loved him in my youth, and feared him in mine age, and laboured to have a conscience void of offence to him, and to all men ; yet if thou, O Lord ! be extreme to mark what I have done amiss..., who can abide it ? And therefore, where I have failed, Lord, shew mercy to me ; for I plead not my righteousness, but the forgiveness of my unrighteousness, for His merits, who died to purchase pardon for penitent sinners.
