Psalms51:7

7. Purge me with hyssop , and I shall be clean: wash me, and I shall be whiter than snow.

Or, as with Hyssop: the note of similitude being frequently understood. As Lepers and other unclean Persons, are by the appointment purified by thy use of Hyssop and other things, Levit. 14. 6. Numb. 19. 6. so do thou cleanse me, a most Leprous and polluted Creature, by thy Grace, and by the Vertue of that Blood of Christ, which is signified by those Ceremonial usages.

Marginal references: Lev. 14. 6. Numb. 19. 18.; Isa. 1. 18.
