But behold, the devil hath deceived me;

Go and reclaim this people,

for they have all gone astray after an unknown God.

There is no God;

yea, and he taught me that which I should say.

And I have taught his words;

and I taught them because they were pleasing unto the carnal mind;

and I taught them, even until I had much success,

insomuch that I verily believed that they were true;

and for this cause I withstood the truth,

even until I have brought this great curse upon me.

wilt thou comfort my soul in Christ.

O Lord, wilt thou grant unto me that I may have strength,

that I may suffer with patience these afflictions which shall come upon me,

because of the iniquity of this people.
