Now, forafmuch as all Chriftians, who are capable of examining themselves and their own Confciences, are bound, as they hope for Salvation through Chrift, to go to this Sacrament: And because young People are often at a Lofs how to examine themselves upon these several Heads:Here follow a few plain Directions, which they that can read, fhould read with Care; and they that cannot, if they have a true Concern for themselves, will find fome good Chriftian, who will be glad to read it to them, and do thereby a Work which must be well pleafing to God.

So that if either the Fear of God's Difpleafure, or a Love of Him, who has been fo good to you, will weigh with you, you will most heartily condemn yourself for every thing you have done contrary to his Will and Command.

You will alfo beg him most carneftly to forgive you what is paft, and you will promife and refolve, through his Grace and Help, not wilfully to offend Him again.

And lastly, you will not forget to pray for his Grace every Day of your Life, without which your best Refolutions will come to nothing.

This is that Repentance, concerning which you are required to examine yourself, before you go to the Lord's Supper.
