Cxlv. [124]

“Whom God ordains to endless pains   by Law unalterable, Repentance true, Obedience new,   to such are unable. Sorrow for sin no good can win,   to such as are rejected; Nor can they grieve nor yet believe,   that never were elected.

CXLVI.

“Of Man’s fall’n race, who can true Grace   or Holiness obtain? Who can convert or change his heart,   if God withhold the same? Had we applied ourselves and tried   as much as who did most, God’s love to gain, our busy pain   and labor bad been lost.“

Their pleas taken off.
