Jeremiah3:25

Ver. 25 We lye down in our ſhame] We that once had a whores forehead, ver. 3. and ſeemed paſt grace, are now ſore aſhamed of former miſcarriages, yea our confuſion covereth us (as Pſal. 44.15.) becauſe we have ſinned againſt the Lord our God, we and our Fathers from our youth unto this day, and have not obeyed the voyce of our God. Lo here a dainty form and pattern of penitent confeſſion, ſuch as is ſure to find mercy. Haec ſanè omni tempore Chriſtiana eſt ſatisfactio, non meritoria aliqua Papiſtica atque nugivendula. Only we muſt not acknowledge ſin with dry eyes,Zegedia. but point every ſin with a teare, &c.
